I know what youre thinking, but im not doing that.

there was no way I was going to clays' again.

walking down the streets, in the rain, I headed to my "hideout". it wasn't really a hideout considering the fact that it was a hotel, but no one knew about me going there

so I guess you could call it a hideout?

I didn't want to risk going back home because what if clay sends someone to kidnap me again

after a familiar turn, I reach my destination, the counter lady knew me.

she smiled at me, "here are the keys to your suite" she says handing me the keys, I had a so called deal with this hotel, that my suite would always be empty and reserved for me, well I pay them anyways

I thank her and head into the lobby, getting into the elevators and clicking on the highest floor.

the views in this hotel were insane, the full wall of windows gave a better view.

I walk over to the door to my suite and open it, immediately locking it behind me.

the thing about all this mafia stuff was that it didn't matter if you had men by your side, it only mattered about your title, and let me remind you that, my title was huge

I was expensive in this mafia business and it makes me happy to know that I was.

I didn't care that I didn't have a gang anymore, I can handle this myself, right?

since this suite was always reserved for me, I had some of my belonging here, like my clothes, laptop and a lot of other stuff. but most importantly, I had weapons hidden here and there, just in case something happened one day.

walking over to the kitchen, I grab a wine glass and pour me some wine

I walk over to the balcony of my room, to get some fresh air, "to new beginnings" I say, looking at the sky, raising the glass in the air before taking a sip out of it

it was no kidding that I was scared of what was to come, but what's life without some adrenaline?

*time skip*

its been about a month, since everything happened, I was getting ready for a "ball" kind of thing, that was only for famous people in the mafia business

there would be people from various countries gathering in that one ball room, kinda terrifying huh?

since I left clay that day, he didn't bother me at all, surprisingly.

I put on the dress that I had picked out, (a/n dresses at the top for reference, but if u have a different outfit, feel free to imagine that haha)

this dress was amazing, I put on some rings as well as necklaces, I apply light makeup, even though I wouldn't be needing it

after doing my hair, I have a full look at myself in the mirror, the white dress, the rings, the necklaces, my black hair falling perfectly past my shoulders

oh did I mention the fact that I dyed my hair? no? well now you know

everything about this outfit was perfect

I look at the time, the party would start soon, meaning I was already late, but oh well.

I grab the invitation and read through the rules, the party was different then any other party.

no phones were allowed, weapons weren't allowed either but I strapped a pocket knife to the thigh that wasn't exposed and lastly, no revealing your identity, i'll explain the last rule in a bit

the ride to my party was here and I ran out of the suite with just the invitation and mask in my hand

I greet the driver and ask him to start going to the destination, I know im known for murder and all that mafia stuff but I have manners. (a/n stan y/n)

I look down at my lap, a white mask laid, it matched my dress, no it wasnt the masks we wear for covid (a/n covid dont exist in this story).

the white mask was decorated perfectly and it matched with my dress too. (a/n okay I know theres a word for these type of masks but I forgot so we'll roll with this)

this party was different because it was a masked party, where no one would know who is who, kind of cool if you ask me

we finally reach the destination and I thank the driver, I put on the mask before getting out of the car, I groan internally realising that I was quite late

I walk over to the closed door with guards on either sides of the door who asked to see my invitation

I hand it to one of them and they check it before smiling at me and nodding, "enter whenever youre ready and dont forget to enjoy your time here maam"

I return the smile before breathing in

I push open the huge doors, everyone immediately turn to face the opening doors, I feel everyone look at me

I walk to the seat that was reserved for me, my heels making noise every time it hit the marble floor under me, I see so many people scanning my body, I scoff

I reach my seat and sit down, people had gone back to talking to the person beside them

the setting of this ball was amazing, everything looked so elegant

there were multiple circle tables with seats designated to people, no one got to choose where they sat, each table had about six people

I was sat with three males and two females, the females were basically throwing themselves onto the males, who looked unbothered, when I sat down the attention of the table turns to me

you'd think that it was easy to tell who youre sitting with but, with the masks on it was impossible because everybody looked the same.

all 5 pairs of eyes were looking at me, "what?" I question and one of the guys look at me wide eyed, upon hearing me speak

someone else opens their mouth to speak but they are cut off but the host, "welcome to our annual party!" he says and everyone claps, "as we all know, this party is held to bring all mafia groups together, but this year we decided that it would be fun to do a mask party instead, anyways, that's all I have to say for now, so go have a drink, dance about and have fun!" he says

the whole time I felt one of the males eyes on me, but I didn't care to be honest. I turn to look at him and he maintains eye contact, "I need to use the washroom" he says and the friend sitting beside him agrees with him, so the both of them leave, leaving me, one of the males and the two females

the two females whisper to each other and giggle before getting up, they were probably going to find the two in the toilet

that leaves the guy that looked at me wide eyed just now, he leans closer to me so that he could whisper to me, "y/n is that you?" he whisper shouts

"i- yes it me, wait George?" i whisper shout to match his energy, " yes that me" he says, "holy shit, so that means-" i get cut off, "yes the other two are clay and nick" George says reading my mind

"okay but how did they not recognise me" i ask, "i honestly don't know, maybe its because you dyed your hair and by the way the hair looks good y/n" he says

i smile at his compliment, "thank you", we continue talking and the four of them who left just now return together, they take a seat, i roll my eyes

"got a problem?"
