The Engagement Party
CASSANDRA POV
"Mom, please don't make me go," I whined, slowly getting up from my bed.
Unfortunately, today was the day of my
engagement which I was not looking forward to, considering I'm engaged to the one and only Alessandro Russo.
Alessandro and I met a couple of years back and from what I saw, he was extremely ruthless and quite insane.
However, since my father passed away, I had to get married to secure a male leader for our mafia - a worthy successor.
"Sweetheart, this is a good opportunity for you, and besides, you finally get a chance to get to know the man you are marrying," she spoke in a motherly tone.
"The last time I saw him was when he killed three of our maids in front of me, as at that time, I was 15 years old!"
I shouted while she sat on my bed beside me and grabbed my hand in hers.
"Baby, listen to me; your father picked a good man for you; I wouldn't let you marry him or even go near you if I didn't trust your father's decision." She started to stroke my thumb with her hand.
"Besides he is a very strong leader" She
continued.
I sighed and got up as my mother started to leave my room, please, get ready for the engagement party, she said.
Even though I did not want to see Alessandro's face, I still wanted to look good for him; I wanted to show everyone how fucking amazing Alessandro's future wife can be.
My makeup was subtle, but I still looked amazing, I wore a champagne-colored dress with my breasts spilling out in the front and my dark hair slicked back into a ponytail; there was a slit at the front of my dress, showing off my toned legs.
Fuck, I looked good.
I walked down the stairs and saw my mother waiting for me. She looked beautiful, and for the first time, she looked happy.
Since my father died, she has rarely been going out, and all she does is sit inside all day, mainly sleeping and crying, but I'm happy that she made an effort tonight, and I can see her smiling proudly at me.
"Mum, You look amazing," I said, walking down the stairs with my heels clicking against the floor.
"Baby, you look stunning; Alessandro is extremely lucky," she says, wrapping her arms around me, pulling me into a hug, and stroking my back.
We started walking to the car, and the driver was standing outside the car, waving his hand to let my mother and me in the back seat and then off to Alessandro's mansion.
Once we pull into Alessandro's mansion, I see guests walking in the huge double doors, a few familiar faces but a few not so familiar.
I step out of the car, my mother coming behind me as we walk into the party everyone staring at me and a few perverts staring at my breasts.
Wow, Alessandro's mansion is huge.
I never expected it to be this big and filled with so many people I didn't even know.
"Sweetheart I will be right back, I'm going to speak to some old friends, Try to find
Alessandro, and be nice, please," she warned me and walked away.
I couldn't see Alessandro anywhere thank God.
So I decided to get a couple of drinks at the bar, I needed to get myself a little drunk but not too drunk considering this was my event, and I didn't want to be too fucked up at my engagement party.
I decided I'd had enough drink after seven shots, But lucky enough for everyone around me, I'm a light drinker.
I started to look for my mum, pushing past people and maybe stepping on a few toes, and then I saw him.
He was wearing a black shirt that hugged his bulging muscles in all the right places, his dark hair was gel, and a few strands came to the front messily, and he had tattoos going all the way up from his hands to his neck and chest, which were exposed by a few buttons being undone at the top.
Fuck! Why did he have to look so sexy?
He walked up to me staring at my cleavage the whole time, not even trying to hide the fact he was drooling over my body.
"Long time no see, love," He spoke in a dark voice, eyeing my body up and down with his evil yet beautiful brown eyes.
I shot him a fake smile and started to walk past him because there was no way I'm dealing with him right now.
Suddenly, I felt a large hand wrap around my wrist and felt the sudden coldness of rings on my skin, and the owner of the large hand pulled me towards his hard chest.
"Did I say you could fucking leave angel?" Alessandro spoke angrily his grip tightening on my wrist.
"Alessandro, let me go. Does it look like I want to speak to you right now? It's bad enough I have to marry you" I spoke in a stern voice.
He chuckled darkly. "Hmm, My love you shouldn't speak to your future husband with that tone." he let go of my wrist and began to stroke my cheek softly.
"Maybe I should tie you to my bed and teach you a lesson?"
My eyes widen at his sadistic words, and I can feel my panties dampen, not knowing what to say.
"Have I made you speechless, Sandra? Hmm?
Do you want me to fuck you right here in front of everyone so everyone can see how good you take me? Is that want you want, Cassandra?" He questions darkly.
"You need to back off, Alessandro. You can't just speak to me like that, as I was one of your whores" I said, poking my finger on his chest and pushing him back a little.
Alessandro was one of those guys who fuck a new girl every night, he wasn't one to commit to a relationship, but when my father asked him to marry me before he passed away, Alessandro was very eager and signed the contract immediately.
