The Doberman

Chapter 10: Shooting hearts

"*cough* get your asses in the car and get out of here"

I laughed as I followed Leo to his Car. He walked to a black Rolls Royce parked outside.

"Okay but we have one more stop to make." He said.

"Where?" I asked.

"You'll see."

He stopped in front of his house and invited me in.

"Why are we here?"

"Follow me." He said as he guided me to his room.

As I walked in, I saw a box on his bed.

"Open it." He said.

Inside the box was a pendant. A pendant with a cursive D on it.

"You know what our families would think right?"

"I don't give a shit." He said. "Do you like it?"

"Put it on me."

I turned towards his mirror and he put the necklace on me.

I looked at him through the mirror and after he was done puting it on, he looked at me through the mirror.

"Eh it'll pass." I joked.

"I'll take it ba-"

"No no no I like it I like it." I giggled.

He smiled and splayed his hands on my back. He dig his face into my neck and planted a soft kiss before spinning me around and backing me up into the mirror.

"We'll be late for the ball." I said, hiding a moan.

He sighed and backed away. You really know how to ruin a moment, tesoro."

[A few minutes later]

Halfway there, he breaks his silence.
"You look beautiful Ms. Caruso."

"You don't look too bad yourself Mr. Ricci"

"You know I can just pull over and..." he said suggestively.

"Keep it in your pants Doberman, we have a ball to attend"

"Cockblock" he scoffed.

We soon reached the ball and there were so many people in there. Mafia, CEOs, Millionaires, Billionaires, you name it, you have it. I hate being in between so many people. Makes me feel weird.

"Welcome, Leo!" A brown-haired, fair man, probably the same age as Leo greeted.

"Nice ball, Devon" Leo complimented.

"Thanks, man. And who would this beautiful woman be?" He turned to me.

"Azalea Caruso nice to meet you" I proposed a handshake.

"Devon Walker" He introduced, shaking my hand.

"How's Xander and Vienna?" He asked.

"They're great" I replied with confusion in my tone.

"Oh yeah, your parents and mine know each other" He explained.

"Ohhh makes sense"

"Okay enough intros, can you stand by the bar, I'll be right there" Leo squeezed my palm.

I nodded as I walked to the bar.

Leo's pov:

"Don't flirt with her" I warned.

"I wasn't flirting with her!" Devon denied.

"And who would this beautiful woman be?" I mocked.

"It's just a general compliment dear lord. I know she's yours and right now she's waiting for you at the bar so stop being stupid and walk over to her"

I rolled my eyes and walked over to the bar. Soon a slow song started playing and everyone gathered on the dance floor and started dancing with their partners.

Back to Azalea:

《 Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms》

"May I have this dance?" Leo bowed, putting his hand forward.

《Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favourite song》

"You may" I gave him my hand and m on my hip and held my hand with another. I placed my hand on his shoulder and we swayed along with the music.

《When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath but you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight》

We looked into each other's eyes and danced peacefully. Not uttering a word, just letting our eyes talk.

Everything was fine until...

*gunshots*
