He looks at me a bit confused as he sees me smiling at him.

"I am, but aren't you mad?" he asks

"I am, but there is no need to make things harder. I just have to get used to this." I say still smiling.

"I'm happy you finally realise that, I wouldn't want to do that to you ever again." He pulls me to him and puts his hands gently around my neck "I'm sorry it is bruised, I lost control for a moment." I can see he regrets it a little

"It's ok, it doesn't hurt. In two days, it will be like it never happened." I say, putting my hands above his and smiling.

"Can you hide it tomorrow? Wear something that covers your neck?" I look at him, curious "You are going to meet my friends tomorrow, and Italians have certain rules about their lovers, and I broke one with you." he says ashamed

"What rules?"

"I can't hurt you, touch you unless you want to be touched, disrespect you in any way, or force you, among others." He sights "I'm supposed to treat you like a king." I keep looking at him, wondering if that is the way Italians love, why we are in this situation "Even if our situation is a bit different, I should do all I can to make you feel loved and cherished, and I'm trying to do that, Porchay. Things just got a bit out of control today." He said with his head down, it's time for me to play a little

"I told you, it doesn't hurt you don't need to be so harsh on yourself. I haven't been the most cooperative person, but I'll change, and I'll be good in front of your friends." I say, grabbing his head to make him look at me "Now, tell me about them, your friends, how are they?" He smiles at my question

"They are my childhood friends, I've known them since I was a baby, but we are in the mafia, it's hard to trust all of them. The one I trust the most is Fred, and you already know him. We have Damiano, who was in Italy, but he is coming, he should arrive in a couple hours. He is my other hand, and he helped me with the instruments for you. You'll like him. As for the rest, honestly, they aren't that important on a day-to-day basis, but they are important people in Italy, and it's good to be on their good side."

"I think we should go buy some makeup if your friend is coming."

"Damiano will think it is a sex injury, there is no need." I can't help but blush a little at the mention of the word sex "You're cute when you are embarrassed."

"I forgot to tell you, but I invited P'Porche, P'Kinn, Macau, P'Pete, P'Vegas, and P'Tay, and I don't know if he will bring P'Time. Is there a problem with them being there?" He tenses a little

"To me, no, but I hope things don't escalate with so many important people in one place. It's better that they are there because I feel that you are safer, but with so many people like us in one place, you never know if things will go wrong."

"I'll talk to P'Porche to make sure everything goes smoothly."

"That is better. What do you want to do for the rest of the day?" he asks me

"I don't know, we could watch something until lunch time, and then you could show me the garden and the outside of this place."

"That sounds good, and I have the perfect thing to do at noon, you'll like it, don't worry. Did your allergy list change in the past six months?"

"I don't think so." I say confused

"Ok, then what do you want to watch?"

"Peaky blinders, I've heard good things about that series, and I think it involves the mafia somehow too." I say that because either here or at the mansion, I'll finally have time to watch it
