After dinner we are going into your rooms. Noah comes with a maroon box and I raise an eyebrow. He smiles and hands me it. I open it and see an emerald necklace with earrings.
-It's so beautiful..
I say wide-eyed and my lips delate from amazement. He just smiles at my childish behavior. And kisses my neck.
-I want to see it on you.
-You will see it. Now let me change and tell Sapha to come in my room.
-Was it a command?
He says with raised eyebrow. If I had time, I would play with his nerves.
-I don't have time to play games with you Noah.
-Okay. Relax, you will have as much time as you need.. my lady.
When he says that word my surprised face changes into annoyed and I roll my eyes. He just giggles and goes out. After looking at necklace for some minutes, I'm heading to wardrobe and taking out two black box. I put it at my bed and at that moment door opens.
-Noah told me that you needed me.
She looks so mesmerizing, I look at her with wide-eyed and mouth open. She smiles and shakes her head.
-You look so damn beautiful.
I say with big smile. That blue dress matches with her ocean eyes so much, that dress is made for her. Jayden should have a strong heart.
-Thanks Al. Aren't you changing? We will be late.
-Yes, of course.
After some minutes I am going out from bathroom. Sapha has the same look as the first time she had. She looks me with sparkling eyes. Then she makes my makeup and puts my hair in low bun, she let outs a little at my ears and finishes it with hairpin, which is set in little emerald pieces. . I show her Noah's gift and she smiles and puts it happily on my neck. I put my earrings and rings.
-Noah asked me to tell you something.
-What is it?
-He wants you to have matching tattoo with you.
I know why he asked her to say that. I don't want to be in mafia and he knows it. But... I want to be his.
-Okay. I have no problem to have it.
She is doing my tattoo. When she finishes it, I look at it in surprise. It looks so real, that nobody can guess that it's fake. I look at my finished look in mirror and I smile with satisfaction. My boy will be hungry and strawberries won't help him now. I smirk at my thoughts and both of us is heading out from room. When we start to take steps, I saw him. Aaah... It was that moment that I knew I was fucked up. He wears all black, except green silk shirt. His long hair is combed back and with his undercut he looks so hot, that I gulp. He looks me with hunger eyes and he looks every inch of me. When he sees the tattoo on my leg, he smirks. I go in his direction with confident steps.
-I can't describe in words how beautiful you are Alisa..
-I can see it in your actions baby.
-Oh... my lady wants to play with me again. I like that you don't give up after losing a game, that's my girl.
-Sorry for interrupting your conversation, but we will be late.
-Yeah.. Pearl is right.
We laugh at the pouting Jayden and sit in our car. We are laughing and talking about different things. In an hour we are there. It looks so beautiful and wealthy, of course it will it's one of the mafia leader's. A servant takes our coats and we are going inside. The hall is in golden and black colors. But my attention is caught by the dancing-hall.
-We should wear a masks, before we enter.
Noah takes a masks and helps me to wear it, he doesn't forget to kiss my neck. I smile. When all of us are in mask, servant tells us that we can enter. There are so many people. Some of them are dancing or talking with each other. Others are just sipping a champagne.
-Mr. Santorini.
Some lady comes to our direction with shaking her hips, she is beautiful. My jaw clenches as she touches his arm and intertwines it with hers. I smile with greeted teeth and look him in eyes, he politely takes her hand out of him and makes an excuse. He comes near to me. I stop waiter asking him to bring me whiskey. I take his hands and place them on my waist. His smirk goes wider.
-My lady is angry.
-I am giving someone a chance for once. And nobody can call you your surname like that.
-Oh... Is that so?
He says it surprised and then smirks.
-Yes and I will destroy every one who wants to take my man.
-Then I should kill all these men who looks at you in hunger.
I take my whiskey and so does he. Then smiles at his thoughts as he looks at me.
-What my lady wants to dance to?
-Tango. I should make it clear that you are mine Santorini.
He leads me to center as soon as he says musicians to play tango. Everybody looks at us in excitement and with surprise at the same time. I smile and he takes my hand in his. We start to dance, forgetting that there are people. Our emotions are put in our dance. As we finish it we hear applauses. Both of us smiles.
-Mr. Santorini what a beautiful partner you have. Can you tell me your name beautiful?
-Thank you. My name is Alisa.
I say with slight smile and he smiles. Noah's grip on my waist tightens. I try not to smile. Revenge Santorini.
-How do you like the ball Mrs. Alisa?
-It's wonderful.
-Ivan come here.
-Excuse me, please.
I smile and he leaves. Noah groans from annoyance and my smile grows bigger. I turn to see his clenched jaw.
-He was handsome. Who was he?
-Should I ask for his number?
He says sarcastic with greeted teeth. I giggle at his reaction and put my hands on his shoulder almost hugging him. I lean to his ear, my lips touching as I murmur at his ears.
-Revenge Santorini.
-Are you ready to face the punishment my lady?
-With pleasure Santorini.
After few songs we are dancing valse. I see Jayden and Sapha dancing near us. They are smiling and talking with each other. I was going to say something, but my words are cut off by him.
-Santorini.
My hands start to tremble when I hear his disgusting voice. His gaze makes me feel unsecure. My heart starts to race, I can hear my heartbeat in my ears. My breath is becoming heavy.
-Noah..
I say hopeless and weakly grip on his arm. He looks at me confused.
-I'm sorry, but I should take her outside.
-Yes, of course. She looks pale.
Noah takes me outside. My past memories awake. I can hear Noah calling my name. I can hear Jayden's and Sapha's voices as well.
-Noah what's wrong with her?
-I don't know.
My visions starts to get blur and my tears starts to fall from my half-closed eyes.
-Who was that man?
I close my eyes, Noah catches me before I fall. The last I hear is that damn man's name.
-Matthew Adams.
