Luciano
I lead my angel back to our room. I’ve already laid out an outfit for her to wear to dinner tonight. I know she will eventually ask when she can leave again and I’m not ready to let her go. I need her to want to stay with me. Therefore, I need to romance her. Women like nice things, pretty dresses, fancy food, right? I’m sure in the right setting maybe she can see there’s more to me than just being a possessive Don with a hard on for her. When the moment is right, I’ll tell her how I really feel, I’ll make sure she knows that my heart is in this. Black and white, I’ll lay it all out and hope and pray she feels the same for me.

She eyes me warily but takes the dress to the bathroom. About 20 minutes later she comes out looking absolutely stunning. The black silk dress hugs her curves in all the right places. It has a sweetheart neckline and a deep slit up her right thigh. I guide her to the bed and drop to one has I take her feet and put on the matching heels I had chosen for her. She blushes and adorable pink and I move on to placing gold diamond drops to her ears and a matching necklace.

“Luciano this is too much.”
“Nonsense. I want to give you the world and everything in it.” I say as I take her hand and kiss her knuckles.
“Come, we have dinner reservations.”
Luca stands by the blacked out SUV to or
to open the door for her.
“You look stunning, Donna.”
Both he and Tony who’s standing nearby eye her. I don’t blame them, she is beautiful, how could one not look?
“Thank you Luca.” She blushes and doesn’t correct him on the title. Good. Luen drives and Tony takes the passenger seat, leaving us to the back. I’ve paid Tony a hefty upfront sum to look after my angel. He’s to go everywhere with her, even at home, unless I’m with her. He’s the best fighter I have and always has a keen eye on his surroundings, not to mention he’s loyal and I trust him just as much as Luca. They’re two of my .oldest and closest friends. I would trust them to protect her no matter what. Tony glances over his shoulder at her, “You really do look amazing
tonight, honey. Bold…but the blush that now sits on her cheeks, gods, he can complement her all he wants if it gets that reaction out of her.
We arrive at the restaurant, the best in town. It’s a roof top setting. 50 stories high, overlooking the ocean. For any normal person they would wait years to get a reservation. Not for me though, as my cousin owns it. We take the elevator to the top floor. Luca and Tony come with us while the rest of my men wait outside. Luca and Tony won’t be joining us, but they still need to be close. Being Don has all sorts of dangers that come with it and it’s not just myself I need to look out for now. I also have my angel’s life in my hands so it’s comforting to know that they will be somewhere nearby, I watch as they take a seat inside near the exit. A tactical move to ensure they know who’s coming and going and I can let down my guard and focus on the beauty walking in front of me. With that peach Ntle ass…Fuck.
The waiter leads us through the restaurant, and I watch as several different emotions flash across her face. Each only last a few seconds and if you didn’t know what to look for you would miss them. She settles on one in the end, admiration. She takes the time to study the paintings on the wall and the different leatures of the room. She has a habit of scanning her surroundings and making sure she knows everything there is to know about any place she steps into.
“Wow, this is beautiful!”
She likes it, akay good, this is good.
“Im glad you like it and I’m sure my cousin will be pleased his Donna likes it i
“Your cousin owns this?”
“Well technically I own it, but my cousin is responsible for its success.”
I’d like to thank him some day. This is really quiet something“.
too.”
The waiter leads us to a table on the balcony. The table that is permanently reserved for me and my angel now. It has the best view and only few tables surround ours so we have more privacy here. We sit and talk whilst sipping the wine I had chosen for us. I learn about how my angel never had a proper education, her bastard of a father did not find it to be important, but she taught herself some basic reading and writing over

the years, She’s Quent in Italian simply from it being the first language in her home growing up. She also plays about every instrument possible but tells me its been years since she’s had one to play, 1 put that in the mental list of things to buy her. I want to ask her exactly who her father is so I can kill the fucker, but the waiter comes to take our order and she quietly asks me to order for her, which I assume is because of the complex wording of the menu but I’m more than happy to oblige.
I reach for her hands across the table, needing to feel her close to me. Her eyes go but she yells, “Get down!”
Wide and for a second I think it’s a reaction to what I’m doing
There’s a loud bang behind me as I throw myself from the chair, Everything is happening so fast as I watch her grab a knife from the table and throw it in the direction I was sitting. I follow the line of the knife and it lodges in the eye of a man dressed as a waiter who has a gun pointed at her. He drops to the floor instantly and there’s more gunfire from around the room. People are screaming and running for the exits. I see Luca and Tony running towards us on the balcony and I scan the rest of the restaurant to find where the other gunfire is coming from.
