Sylvia POV
If this psycho had told me he shrugged was dragging me with him to somewhere,I wouldn't have eaten so much.God,I feel so bloated right now.His driving wasn't helping either,I would have puked all over the car by now if I wasn't used to fast driving.
"Care to tell me where you're taking me to?" I had asked but as I was now accustomed to,dude is allergic to talking sometimes.Something clicked in my head,could he be...
"You're not taking me to be a pimp are you?"
Most Mafia gangs constitute prostitution a lot. But if that's his plans then I am already thinking of ways to beat him to it.After an hour or so he pulled up.
"We're here" he announced as he made to undo my seatbelt and I glared at him. "l'll do it myself!"
Then he gave me a silver mask adorned with crystals. "Wear it. It's a mask party." He said.I hesitantly wore the mask and looked into the rearview mirror. It went well with my dress and also complimented my skin tone.There were four other masks of different colors in the glove compartment. "Are you selling masks or is it your kink?" I had joked. Hmph! No reply like always.
**********************
"Behave.Otherwise you're going to regret it" he warned in an icy tone.'Fuck you' I cursed him out in my mind. His warning didn't deterr my will to escape. We both walked down the red carpet that trailed down into a large hall that could be considered a fancy ballroom given it's Victorian architect and design.There were hundreds of people drinking and socializing. Kai wore an intricately designed black mask.
He is quite popular especially among ladies.
"Hey bro" A guy as tall as Kai and roughly the same build greeted Kai.
"Who's this beautiful lady beside you? You are quite the master at snagging beautiful ladies." He held his hand out for an handshake which I gladly took.
"What are you doing here Angelo?" Came Kai's voice asking.
"I was invited just as you were" The guy named Angelo answered throwing his arms apart.Kai smirked at Angelo "Enjoy the party" he shoulder bumped Angelo as he walked past him.I could sense something dark and sharp between them.Enmity.
Once again we.... No Kai was surrounded by women like sharks to chum.One of them was this woman, Marianne.Wearing a revealing blood red gown that accentuated her body and highlighted her fox like beauty.She wasn't wearing a mask like almost everyone else and She had the green look on her face.Sending a small glare my way from time to time.I concluded from the way she spoke that she is into him and it's one sided. God, he's such a manwhore countless ladies had come before and I hated to be present during these interactions but he always held my hand tightly.Making me unable to leave as I wanted. "Would you like to dance? I haven't danced because I was waiting for you" Marianne said pouting as she waited for his reply. "I am afraid I ca---"
"You can go ahead. l'll also find someone to dance with!" I cut in excitedly seeing he was about to turn her down.I felt this dark, displeased vibe from him.He seemed angry but do I give a fuck about that? No I don't.
"Cours si tu peux" he whispered to me in french meaning... "Run if you can" he gave out a dangerous smile. I scoffed and walked away from them.Wading my way through the string crowd.I needed to get out of here, I thought as I kept on walking briskly towards a secluded corner I presumed would lead me to a restroom or a way to escape when suddenly I was pulled into someone's arms.I panicked ready to throw a punch at the pervert only to find out it is the guy that conversed with Kai earlier,Angelo.
"Am sorry if I scared you" he apologized.
"Well you sure did!" I fired
"I am sorry.....would you like to dance?" He asked. I was about to decline when I sighted someone looking at me.Sort of guarding me.
"Oh shit!"
