Dante's pov.2 years ago It was a long line and a warm night. traffic grumbled by, rumbling over the conversation of others who waited. The bouncer was busy checking ID'S of the people queuing up at the door. he wore a suit and a pair of black curves, his dark hair slicked back left with his face unframed. I, Salvatore, Jaden and Harvey walked passed the line towards the entrance door. waving my hand at him, the bouncer nodded pulling the door open for us as we stepped into the wall of sound. Of course, I could enter at anytime because I own it. yup, the club is mine. To be more precise,it is for Salvatore and I but he would never say it is his.I got it from dad for my 19th birthday last year, I named it 'storage 2.0' after a lot of thinking. I did consult Salvatore but he said he was fine with whatever I chose, so I left it at that. I took a moment to take in the sounds, the smell, the beautiful girls. it's been a while. I thought. everyone moving or talking while the music pumped
DANTE'S POV. I sighted a pretty girl the moment I stepped into the dance floor, I smiled moving towards her. "I am worried my memory is failing, I can't seem to recognize you which makes no sense. I never forget a beautiful lady." I flirted moving along with the lady in a very short black dress. "first time!" she replied "that explains it." I said with a smile. "so you visiting?" I added. "Nope, born and bred" she said still swaying her hips. "you? you seem to be a regular." she chuckled softly. "well.... it's my club. although I don't really come that often." I said. "No way!" she exclaimed. "yes way.... I guess" I replied awkwardly. yup, awkward. "Martha smith nice to meet you...?" she introduced as amusement twinkled in her eyes.her eyebrows raised in question for my name. "Dante bernade, the pleasure is all mine." I said faking a bow. she laughed, my smile widened. "Dante? not American? come. to think of it, you don't look like one." she frowned. "I am Italian actuall
Dante's pov. "she couldn't have a proper burial and that's killing me slowly Salvatore, I can't bear the fact that she was burnt after falling from such a high place. I should have made sure that at least she got dressed in a beautiful dress, placed in a coffin with people who cared dressed in black, holding flowers around her grave to send her away..... to rest in peace. "I said trying to fight back my tears. " it isn't your fault and you know it. there was nothing you could do so, stop beating yourself up for her death" he said sitting across the room, watching me curled up on the bed , covered in a duvet. I have not left the room for the past three days.... since Anna's death but I have been getting updates on what have been going on outside. apparently, there have been no news about it, everyday the scene pretended it never happened and moved on with their lives. how could they , right?.... yes, they did... perfectly well infact. " I couldn't protect her. I never
Anna's pov"Are you going clubbing again?" I said glaring at Abby. That's totally Abby, very sassy, rude, rather cumbersome and mischievous. the total opposite of me even though we are identical twins, sometimes I get lost in thoughts pondering on how she does a good job at drinking, smoking cigarettes, changing boyfriends almost every week with my fucking identity. yeah, my identity, Anna not Abby and there is nothing I can do about that. I am always the bad guy if I make an attempt to step in or point out the wrong. however the hell people believe we are the same person, I am still in shock because the difference are too clear."nope, not clubbing. I am going to the bernade opening party" she said grinning wildly" hell no, I can't let you do that. Dante is going to notice immediately"I said with a frown" come on Anna, just let me go for this one, I am sure you are going to be invited to more since you seem so serious about him. well I do hope. the feeling is mutual "she said nonch
Aurora's povIt was almost time, 30minutes left on the clock until it struck 8pm. staring at my reflection in the mirror, I smiled faintly. midnight blue silk, I took a great deal of time and gave a great deal of though to choosing the right dress for the opening of the bernade's palace, after all, Dante, the first son of emiliano bernade is going to be there. sqeee! The deep blue silk appealed toe because of it's clean, elegant lines and lack of ornamentation. after a thorough debate, I slipped into it. I draped subtly over my curves, my reflection satisfied me."like what you see? I know I don't!" a voice sneered sarcastically from behind me. I whirled my head to come face to face with the 'shameless bitch' which is what I call her.Bria Aldini -the cousin of bianca and eduardo Aldini, she is also known as my enemy from day one. I hated her but I couldn't deny the fact that no matter how fake Bria was, she was gorgeous. her blond hair cascaded smoothly down to her back, outlining
"Ladies and gentlemen, I welcome you to the opening of bernade palace." father said as everyone raised their champagne glass for a toast.the crowd cheered and chanted "bernade, bernade, bernade." which irritated me to the core, I really hated to much noise,with the music ,their noise ain't really helping much.Alessandro vinci whom is father's closest friend amongst the three mafia families raises his hand in a fist indicating silence. the whole hall became as quiet as a burial ground. better!"it is an honor to be present in the great emiliano bernade's opening of this grand palace" Alessandro announced teasingly. there were little laughter in the crowd."well I will also like to announce that it will be an honor to have the Vinci family in the 'bernade palace'. I will be gifting the apartments 99-90 to Alessandro my good friend an d brother" father said as the crowd cheered on. I saw this coming, the fact they were all here meant this, the penthouse will be too big just for our fam
Emiliano's pov"you fucking traitor" I said looking down at Cosimo,my most trusted bagman I left in charge of receiving and distributing of my cocaines."how could you detour it, how could you sell is out after everything I have done for you and your family" I shouted point my gun at his head. he was tied down preventing him from moving."I am sorry, please forgive me. please, please" Cosimo kept pleading on his knees."forgive? I have always known that greed of yours will be your down fall but I still decided to give you a chance. there is no turning back now buddy. no, forgiveness, you can't recover it so just go" I said getting pissed."please, think about it. I will try to make it up to you. o am like a brother to you emiliano. "he whimpered shamelessly." that filthy mouth of yours can't take my name , okay? "I said fixing the silencer on the gun. I put the gun on his head as I pulled the trigger right on his forehead. he fell towards the flower pots." get rid of the body and cl
Dante's pov "hey" Bria Aldini said. "hey, you enjoying the party?" I asked uninterested." of course i am but I would love it more if you could join i and the girls "she said raising her voice above the music, gesturing towards a group of girls." ummmm......... I don't think that will be necessary "I said trying to hide my irritation.Batting her long eyelashes, she said " it is Dante, it is absolutely necessary "I saw aurora walking towards us with a frown and I gave her a pleading look which I am pretty sure she understood because she almost burst into laughter but did well suppressing it. so aurora." Dante, your mom is asking for you, you were not picking up so she got a bit worried. that's so unlike you. "aurora said crossly. with a little sigh" is that so.... I have to go then"I said pulling out my phone pretending to check for missed calls."I am sorry Bria, perhaps another time?" I added with a faint smile."oh, come on, not a problem at all. if you are free before the pa
