The life of a Mafia princess

Eleonora PoV:

"How was your first day?" Santino asked me.

"It was okay." I shortly answered, looking at my hands which are folded in my lap.

I feel Santino's eyes on me and while every fiber in my body screams at me to look up at him and not disrespect him, I keep my eyes where they are.

I haven't been here for long but I already know that one look at him would make me tell him everything that happened.

What would he think of me then?

Home and school me are different people. We have nothing in common.

Home me is a mix of my brothers.

But school me? School me is Ivano.

And that scares me.

I know what Ivano is capable of, which makes the question, if I'm capable of the same things rise.

Wether I am in the end or not, I don't want Santino to know about it.

He most likely has enough trouble with Ivano already. I don't want to add to it.

"I expect you to look at me when I talk to you."

I slowly move my eyes up to look at him.

"Was everything okay at school?"

"Yes."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah. I'm just tired."

"Alright, I'll let you go then. I'd like to see you at dinner though." He says.

"I'll try to be there." I answer him and get up, walking out of his office and towards my room.

Once I'm in my room I grab comfortable clothes out of my closet and go into my bathroom to take a shower and hopefully wash everything that has to do with today away.

Once I'm done with my shower I get dressed and quickly walk downstairs to get my school bag.

I sit down at my desk and quickly finish my homework. Luckily it isn't that much for now.

"Elena" I hear Emiliano call once I put my homework into my bag.

"Yes?"

"Can I come in?"

"Sure." I answer confused.

A second later the door opens and he walks into my room. I look confused at him, waiting for an explanation.

"Marcello gave us this," he held up his hand to show me, "for your knee."

"Okay." I tell them and reach out my hand so they can give me bandaid.

He puts the bandaid into my hand, smiles at me and leaves my room again.
