Chapter 24 - 'it's just Vicenzo'

The other side....

(He was working out with his assistant by him,stating some few words to him)

Him: continue...

His assistant: and also we received an invitation just last night...

Him: what invitation?..

His assistant: the invitation to the phantom's ball tonight held by Don meadows...(Upon hearing that, he paused lifting the barbell as he wiped his face)

Him: will I be free by then?

His assistant: yes sir,but uhhh...(emphasizing on his last word as he zoomed something on the tablet he held) not for long...the program starts around 8:30 to 9pm and ends before 1:30, and you have an appointment around 10pm...

Him: okay, make preparations and inform the maidens to assist Madison, she said she has an appointment with someone.....

His assistant: okay sir...

Him: I might want to attend the ball later after I have cleared that appointment...

His assistant: noted sir...

Back to the meadows mansion...in the office suite..

Connor: sir...

Damian: mm?...(Looks up to him as he stopped typing)

Connor: we've got a little problem sir...

Damian:(expression sudden turns alert) what do you mean?...what problem?

Connor: you didn't cancel the party tonight, so it's still ongoing and they're even done with the necessary preparations..

Damian: I don't see any problem here...

Connor: sir, Don moretti was invited...(the moment he made this sentence, Damian got this uneasy feeling as he...)

Damian: has he received the invitation yet?...

Connor: yes sir...it was already scheduled and it went in last night...(Damian just closed his eyes in disappointment as he sighed inside heavily)...(He then stood up as he exited the office and entered his suite)

....

(He entered the bedroom and saw her in front of the mirrored glass wall staring outside. He approached her slowly and embraced her from behind...)

Damian: how're you feeling...?(He asked in concern as he sniffed in her scent)

Bianca: I'm okay...

Damian: well...are you okay enough to join me tonight?

Bianca: what's the occasion?

Damian: there's a gala I need to attend...'a masquerade ball'...(he said calmly...)

Bianca: if only I get to be with you...(His grip suddenly tightened as...)

Damian: of course you'd get to be with me... 'always'...(He uttered)

.....

Damian: bianca...

Bianca: yes..?

Damian: there's one thing..

Bianca: what?

Damian: Vicenzo would be present...(He said as her heart skipped a beat. She then slowly pulled from him and turned around facing him. She just didn't know what to say now...his brother was quite the vigilant one and nothing passes him by without noticing, how is she suppose to surpass that tonight...)

Damian: you needn't fear anything...(Pecks her on the forehead)..I'm here...

Later that day, in country y-canada, at the lipit Moore grand restaurant, around 9:00pm...

(They were together seated with some other family and business associates when bianca and Chloe came walking into the great hall as eyes were all on them, there was loud music but one could also tell they were talking about the two beautys that just arrived. Bianca was in a long black off the shoulder fitted gown which flowed down running on the floor, its side was stripped up to her left upper hip revealing an adjustable changed thigh belt band she had on. She wore together with that, a long black peep toe high heel with a masquerade black cat eyes mask. She also wore a black princess satin short silk gloves with her hair made straight this time,flowing down to her lower waist. Chloe on the other hand, was in a long fitted deep blue ocean gown which brought out her exquisite features together with her hair held up with some decorative charming stylish necessities on it. She wore a red owl eyes masquerade mask which she held whiles walking. Damian was already staring at bianca from afar,when they finally approached them. He was in a wine tuxedo suit with the long sleeved shirt's first three buttons released as the over all coat lay beside with his sleeves rolled up revealing his tattoos and piercing veins. His dark reddish hair was messy this time as it coiled a little on his face covering it on the side. He wore a black wolfy masquerade mask)( Damian slightly whispered something to the girl beside him as she pecked him and then arose and left their presence. Everyone seated around were all astonished by the beauty that just joined them including Zara herself, just her pride not allowing her to admit it)( Bianca then sat by Damian on his left as Chloe made her way beside Ian. The moment she sat down,Damian leaned in for a kiss but she turned her side as he just pecked her on the neck)

Damian: what's the matter?(He said staring at her)

Bianca: (avoids eye contact) two hours you leave me and you're already fucking others...(She said softly. He just smiled as the hint just clicked him)

Damian: referring to the beauty who was beside me?...(She just glanced at him surprised as he got the guts to even call her pretty in her presence)...

Bianca: fuck you...

Damian: (chuckles slightly) oh bianca...she's a friend, we were 'just' talking...

Bianca: mmm... I see...

Damian: jealous already?...

Bianca: maybe...(She said as she picked up his glass of wine and drank it in a go)....

Damian: it turns me on you know...stares at her lips)

Bianca: don't make me jealous...(Wipes the conner of her lips..) at least not in the midst of all these executive gorgeous looking people that are still staring at me..(she gasped when he suddenly took her left thigh and placed it on his, causing her to slightly lie on him on the side as she had her leg in between his thighs feeling his third member)

Bianca: people - are - watching...

Damian: let them watch...you look stunning tonight by the way...I love your dress...

Bianca: took you long enough to realize...?..

Damian: I...

Bianca: you're late tho...one of your guys already did me the honours...god! he was so hot doing that...

Damian:(clenches his jaw and leans in as his grip tightened on her hip) don't play with me bianca...I could fuck you here right here,right now, right in front of them, all of them...(He said maintaining the stare)(Zara just stared at them with burning jealousy as kael just rolled his eyes and drank his wine from time to time vibing to the music. Ian on the other hand just tried his best not to look their way as he knows what he'd feel and how deep it'd cut him. Chloe 'ah well' just saw them as Vicenzo and herself)

(Just then)

Zara: I heard Vicenzo is coming tonight?.. (she said as she fixed her gaze on Damian who slowly pulled back from bianca and met Zara's gaze. Bianca just shivered a little as a cold shiver ran town her spine at the mention of her brother)

Damian: yes, I'm aware...(He said and glaced over to bianca and noticed her change in mood. And just before she could say any other thing, he gently stood up and walked bianca out of their presence)

(They entered the elevator and reached the rooftop terrace as she quickly got out and walked in haste, five steps straight forward breathing heavily. He slowly approached her hugging her from behind, maintaining his grip on her waist whiles brushing his wet lips around her ear area going down her neck)

Damian: how're you feeling...(She nods sighs as she muttered 'i'm fine' in a cracked tone)

Damian: i know you're not, talk to me...(He exhaled heavily yet calm, she closed her eyes enduring slowly his soothing acts...)

(Moments passed by)

Bianca: it's just Vicenzo...what if-what if..he sees me today?...more importantly 'us' ....what he..

Damian:(cuts her off by swallowing her words as his lips crushed onto hers... prolonging the short moment of a kiss) don't worry about that...just think of me...think of me alone tonight...he dares not do a thing..(he said)

Bianca:( shakes her head in disagreement slowly as worry swam in her voice) Vicenzo is somewhat scary sometimes Damian, when he gets mad it ain't the best, he's somewhat somehow that I can't define, if he finds out ...he might do something..I can't atone for, you might not even be able to atone for it...( He just stood there firmly knowing she's right as he saw the sincerity and worry evident in her shaky eyes through the mask she wore)
