Chapter 15- A Gamble of Love is now published.
Sneak peek: "Ms. Cavaelli, why don't you be the next one up?" Xander, who was already standing in front of the class, smugly smiled and proceeded to introduce himself.
"Buongiorno. Il mio nome è Alessandro Verlaine. Ma, insisto sul fatto che tu mi chiami Xander. Ho 17 anni e mi piace essere lasciato solo." (Good morning. My name is Alex-ander Verlaine. But, I insist that you call me Xander. I'm 17 and I like to be left alone.)
"Alright. The moral of Xander's introduction is do not poke the sleeping bear." His fa-ther laughed heartedly, earning a well-deserved scowl from Xander. "Ruby, sweetheart, your turn." Well, one thing I knew is that both Xander and his father have a knack for nicknames.
"Umm ... Il mio nome è Rubino Cavaelli. Originariamente ho cresciuto in Italia e poi la mia famiglia ha deciso di trasferirsi a New York. Sono ovviamente nuovo qui e mi piace il colore blu?" (Umm ... My name is Ruby Cavaelli. I originally grew up in Italy and then my family decided to move to New York. I'm obviously new here and I like the color blue?)
