ILARIA POV
I changed into my dress and looked at myself in the mirror to make sure I looked perfect for the occasion.

After checking if everything was cool, I head outside the hall to join the others for the ball.
I met what I say a class of kings and queen's empire. everyone looked elegant and beautiful as expected.
My eyes locked with Maximo as I descended the stairs. The tension in the hall ,when I got down the stairs was too much. Every one eyes were fixed on me. how I wish I was Magnificent at this point to vanish or turn their eyes in pumpkins for the night. He was approaching me but that blonde bitch with the big mouth grabbed him.
Shit I will let that bitch drink her urine one day. I blended with the others until the butler asked us to go out, to broad our respective cars to the ball.
I was waiting for my turn when everyone got into their cars expect me. I stood there shyly, waiting to hear my name by chance. But everyone took off a minutes after the butler left. I sat down waiting for my car, the butler said my car is on its way here.
I noticed a shadow behind, it was Maximo. He took my hand and walked towards the black Bugatti car that just parked in front of the mansion. G uess who is the gentleman of the night, He opens the door, held my hand for me to get inside the car. He walks to the driver's seat and makes himself comfortable before he took off .
"You look beautiful tonight; guess you are going to steal the spotlight at the ball tonight. Its masquerade ball, here is your mask. Hmm.... suits you well with your outfit" that's all he said and focused back on the road.
"You don't look bad yourself. You will also steal the spotlight tonight, as always" then I shut up simple.
Maximo(pov)
I changed into my clothes for the ball. Along with one of my favorite watch giving me the billionaire charm always.
My cock just twitches at the sight of her, I hope she didn't see that

I kept staring at her until the car was opened for us to get in. Surprise I wanted to be a gentleman today which is odd because I never let a lady in my car. The dress she choose was very perfect for her body. Her smooth legs showed because of how she was sitting at the lounge. The V-line at her back showed her perfect back,that hips the dress hugged her body boldly. Gosh.....what the fuck are you thinking of. I walked to her but she seems to be thinking if something, could she be thinking of her grandma and school. I will let her visit her grandma tomorrow pretty sure she will be happy.She turned around and met my eyes. she looks breath taking.
She is not leaving my sight today no man will even touch her feet tonight. Anyone who dares will have their fingers off.
"I'm a mafia boss, I shouldn't show any emotions but I couldn't help it when it came to her . She is making me break walls" I pushed her thoughts out of my head got out of the car to help her out before giving the car keys to the guard standing next to me.
She was still looking outside through the window. I'm wondering what's wrong with her or what is she thinking about is it the loss of her family or her grandma. Yeah , I did a background check on her .
It still confusing how she is still alive, plus how she ended up like a normal girl she used to leave in the best of luxury. Her parents where part of the most powerful and fearful mafia in my grandfather's ers before my dad took over from him.
Her parents died in a fatal accident on their way back home which there was no survivors so how is she alive . There were also four bodies on the scenes of the accident making this even suspicious could it be that her brother is still alive.
We entered the hall where the event was held. It was held at one of my hotel in the country. I stared at her for a while before I intertwined my hands to hers guiding her towards the ball room. She looked undeniably beautiful. I felt some heat in me but why it's a strange feeling I didn't like it .

We walked inside the room. I saw all the business men and women as well as the mafia bosses with their heirs. They have already started business getting acquainted with each other and forming alliance with their children and next heirs if their organization something I always run away from each time.
My mom and dad were victims of a such occasion.
My mom saw me with Ilaria,she smiled . I'm pretty sure she has introduce Ilaria as my girlfriend already. I'm sure she is already planning to welcome her grandchildren.
I tap her hand to get her attention to me. She looked at me letting a tear drop from her beautiful hazel eyes. I felt sad for her I have lived the life of hiding emotions in front of the world.
My mom saw me with Ilaria and smiled. I'm pretty sure is planning of how to get her grandchildren before she dies and I will make that happen. She motioned me to come to her. I walked with Ilaria who was absent minded with everything happening I wanted to help her but I don't know how to comfort people. I tried reading books and articles on the internet all most of them say it's she should try therapy and she is sane.
„what's wrong , I have been looking at you.i know you have been through a lot. Your parents and brother then your birthday but be assured your grandma is still very alive I will take you to her tomorrow " I said to smoothen her pain. Instead she hugs me making me feel alive in a way I have never felt. I think I love this feeling.
"Thank you"that's all she muttered.
"Errrm...,. I'm sorry my mom wants to see us ,plus I need a favor from you." I asked nervously . she looks at me confused I sighed .
. " My mom has already introduced us as couples to her friends. which I'm very sure about it. She has already made her moves of you to be a her soon -to-be daughter in law to her associates .So please play the part as my girlfriend " I asked still nervous , my hands all sweaty.
"What's in for me, as in what do I get in return " that's all she says like. WHAT !!! Is she interested in me .
"Hell no , I'm not even 1% interested in you . All I want you to do for me is teach me how to fight. ", I was shocked at what she said . All the ladies I used requested for a limited edition of fashion clothes or jewellery.
"Fine, I will train you myself starting in two days, agreed . 5 am. I hate tardiness. Hope that's fine by you" I always keep my promise.
"Alright then. let's do this with a grand style. Hey before I forget if anyone tries to mess with me I will give them a taste of me just like papa and mama thought me. " she said with sadness in her eyes. I smiled at her sudden attitude. " Smile more Mr. Maximo. " She turned from me.
We head towards my mom, she smiled hug I and Ilaria. Mom introduce Ilaria as my girlfriend as expected. Ilaria did a good job acting. Guess this will be one of the best ball gala ever .
