We take a private taxi from the airport and it doesn't take long before I see the big, familiar house pile up.
I've forgot how big it actually is and how stunning the garden is during this season.
I smile at it before we walk inside.
"Nicole! You're so beautiful!" a familiar voice says. It's Annie, our maid, she's like a mother to me. "Thank you." I give her a warm hug and we chat a bit until
George groans impatiently.
"Okay, I'm coming. See you later Annie." I wave and then I follow George to my fathers office.
He knocks and a dark voice which belongs to my father tells us to come in.
"Nicole. Have a seat."
"Nice to meet you too." I mumble quietly and my voice is filled with sarcasm.
"I'm sure you wonder why you're here."
"Yes, I do. I haven't done anything wrong and I've followed all of your rules."
He sits down behind his desk.
"It's a bit more complicated then what it may seem to be. So try not to get upset."
I straighten up and swallow.
"Tell me."
"In order to protect you, I've given you
to Vincent Giovanni. You will marry him and he has promised to keep you safe."
"You did what?!" I scream and stand up from my chair.
"Calm down, Nicole. They will pick you up in a few hours."
"What if I refuse? I don't even know this guy and I definitely don't want to marry him."
"You don't have a choice."
"Then you don't have a daughter. You only see good investments." I say and storm out from the office down to the kitchen, to Annie.
She gives me a look and I throw myself into her open arms.
I can't hold back my tears as I stutter "I hate him. He has arranged a marriage." She holds me tight and pats my hair.
After a while she takes a step back, wipe away my tears and say "Nicole, I'm sure he has a good heart but until you find out if that's true don't upset him. He's a dangerous man, okay? You'll be fine."
I nod "I better go packing. Thanks Annie." No way. I'm not getting married to a stranger, a dangerous one. I'm leaving this house now I think as I open the door.
"Father was right."
"About what?" I ask irritated to see my brother blocking my way out.
"He thought you would run." he says and smirks. I give him a cold stare and he continues.
"And by the way, they're here to get you."
"How wonderful." My voice dripping with sarcasm as I follow him up to my fathers office.
I step into the room where three men in black suits are waiting.
"Miss Vintali, it's nice to meet you. My name is Luca Rossi." one of the men says. He has dark, curly hair and an intense stare.
"Wish I could say the same, Mr Rossi."
His smile doesn't reach his eyes before he turns to my father and whispers something.
"We'll be waiting downstairs."
I nod and take a step closer my father.
"I will never forgive you for this."
And with that said I walk out from my house and into a black car.
"Where are we going?" I ask the man named Luca.
"Milano."
