《Marrying the Capo》Chapter Three

Cassandra
It was close to finishing everyone's meal but I couldn't move the food in front of me. I need to prepare myself when the time they start talking about our wedding. I can't find a word. I have a feeling that I entered a wrong decision. I feel like I’m getting closer to disaster now that I’ve confirmed they’re not ordinary.
With the size of their land, house, and business I can say there is more in them than meets the eye. I'm getting scared.
"Don't you like the food?" I looked at Mrs. De Luca. But I also turned my gaze to everyone sitting there who was now all looking at me.
"No ... I mean. I like the foods. I'm just thinking." I winced at my answer.
"What are you thinking?" Nicolas asked suddenly who now proceeded to eat.
"It's nothing." I answered hiding the quiver of my voice.
"It's not just nothing, you look like an idiot there that even your food you've forgotten." Everyone stopped eating and looked at the two of us. Nicolas was just eating and it seemed like he just didn’t have that question. That seemed normal for him to stand like that.
"It's just about my studies." My answer was weak. I looked at Dad and Mom but they were back to eating. So I was forced to eat. When it was over they immediately started talking.
"I want their wedding next month. I don't want to prolong all this. I want to be with Cassandra in this house. I'm so excited. So, Lily what do you think?" I looked at Mom.
She just nodded with a big smile on her lips. They talked to Mom about the things that would be needed. Sometimes they ask me what color I want. I just nodded and smiled at them.

"I wanted it to be next week." Everything stopped. Their smiles gradually disappeared then they looked at Nicolas who was just sitting next to me and busy with his cellphone in disbelief.
"Why son?" Mr. De Luca asks.
"I just want to." He didn't even look at his father. He's constantly fiddling with his cellphone. "Cassandra and I should be the ones talking about that because we're the one who's getting married. I don't want a fancy wedding. I want it simple and intimate. And, Mr. and Mrs. Evans, I need to talk to your daughter." He immediately stood up then grabbed my arm then pulled me upright. "Excuse us." He pulled me until we reached the lawn behind their mansion where the large pool could be seen not far from us. He let go of my hand and turned to face me. I even backed away when I realized he was so close to me. He just looked at me. Deep and drowning looks while I was purely shivering unable to look closely at his deadly beautiful eyes. As for him, my five flickers was just a flicker to him. "Cassandra, right?" He asked hard and deeply.
"I'm Nicolas Andrian De Luca."

If you’re reading this. Not cool Dude! Or Dudette. Hashtag Resist. Seriously though, it’s not nice to read other people's diaries. Yes, it's a diary, kind of. The only men who call their diaries journals have an issue with their own masculinity I think. Well, I guess I can’t be too angry, considering if this is in anyone else’s hands I’m probably dead. Or I lost it. I lose stuff a lot. Since you’re here, regardless of the reason, I guess I’ll tell my story, such as it is. I know, why tell my story when I could tell you about the Fall of Killianor, or the story of when Micha the Bold banded together with his underdog group of misfits to destroy the Pallantine Regime. Hell, even the tale of Tulsa and Gran’s star crossed love affair would probably be better. If you don’t think so after finishing this you more than likely have poor taste. Weird taste, at any rate. Hello RR! Welcome to the greatest work of fiction you will ever read! ... .... Did you believe that? Cause its not. At all. This is my first work that I will have published in any fashion, and to be completely honest is more to gain practice for my real story. That is not to say I do not care about it. I do. I will do my best to finish it in, if not satisying, at least a conclusive manner. I will warn you however that updates will be infrequent at best though chapter length will not be under 2000 words. I work third shift currently, and at over 40 hours a week I do not have much time to really devote to this at the moment. I DO have an outline for the novel complete, but currently only about 5 actual chapters written and edited. There will be mistakes, including grammar and continuity, plot holes, etc.. If you see these please either comment or feel free to message me directly, and I will get it updated asap. Aside from a fledgeling authors mishaps, expect to find a somewhat comedic slice of life, with a mish mash of xianxia and western fantasy themes, tropes and the like. There will be some gore, network tv levels of sexuality, and absolutely no harems. There will also be COPIUS amount of swearing and drug use and while I said there would be no harems already he may find people in polyamorous situations. I hope you enjoy this, and as a last aside I beg of you not to rate it super low without justification, and if you give a bad rating please leave an actual review so that i know what I need to work on. *Original cover as of 09/01/20. Mishmash of stock photos and edits. HAVE FUN!

The Sea Tower
Sea witches were monsters of legends, capable of routing armadas and wreaking havoc across entire realms by controlling the weather. It was rumored that even the mighty krakens were under the control of the sea witches. Who, what, or where these witches were, no one knew. But no one sought them out either. The avarice of a mad king leads to the folly of a kingdom. Only a single turret survived the catastrophe, a single tower which protrudes outwardly from a boundless ocean, rumored to house the very creature which wreaked havoc and devastation. Sailors are warned to give the relic a wide berth, for few who have seen the tower ever return to speak the tale, and none who have approached it ever have. Do not approach the tower, they said…
