ALLISA'S POV

In the morning, I woke up at 4 like always and went to the gym. Now I'm back inside my room, and I've just finished showering, but still Aries is still sleeping like a log.

"Hey, Aries, get up," I called him. But he didn't reply.

"Alright," I said and went to the bathroom, I took a cup and filled it with cold water. I went to where Aries was sleeping again.

"Aries, wake up." Okay, fine, I poured the whole water, which was inside the cup on him.

"What the f*ck?" He said as he shot up from the bed.

"Are you crazy?" he said, glaring at me, and i just shrugged.

"I wanted to make up my bed, now go to your room and shower," I said.

"You're crazy," he angrily said and went out of my room , slamming the door in process. He is the crazy one.

It was in the afternoon that most of the people in the family were not at home. Some went to work, like the uncles and their older children, while others went to the beauty parlor. Inside the house was only Aries, me and Ryder, and we were in the game room.

"Are you sure you don't want to go to the parlor too?" Ryder asked for the 5th time.

"I know nothing about those things, so it's better I don't go to the parlor." I shrugged

"Oh, I could go with you." he said

"Why don't you just call Visha?" Aries suggested.

Oh yeah, he is right for once

"Okay, let me dial her up," I said and dialed her number on my phone. I put her on loudspeaker.

After 2 minutes, she finally picked it up

"Yes, Alissa?"

"Can you come over to the Rossi's house right now? That is, if you're not busy, "

"Um, is it urgent?" she asked

"Yes, it is very urgent," Ryder said.

"Oh, okay, I will be there in 15 minutes," she said, and I dropped the call.

"Okay, that's good. Now my favorite cousin is going to rock the gala for sure," Ryder happily said.

*****

"You surely called the right person for that," Visha said.

"I just happen to know a place which could help," Visha said excetedly.

"Please, I just want a simple thing, I repeat a simple thing," I said.

"Let's go," she said

"Can I go with you guys?" Ryder asked

"Of course not. It's a girls thing,"

"Keep an eye on Aries, he shouldn't do anything crazy, alright?" Alissa said to Ryder, whereas Aries just rolled his eyes with his arms crossed.

"Alright, just go, don't worry," Ryder said.

Visha took my hand as we walked to her car. We went inside and she drove off to the said place.

We arrived at the place after half an hour.

"What is this place?" I asked. It wasn't too luxurious or anything, but it was just simple and cozy.

"It's sort of a spa, I know it's not famous and all, but I swear the owner it is the best.

"Hello Visha," a man who looked to be in his early 20s said once we entered the place.

"Hi Troy, this is my friend Alissa, Alissa. This is Troy, the cosmetologist," Visha said.

"Hey there, beautiful," the Troy boy said, and I nodded. I think being here is not a good idea anymore.

"Can I talk with you for a second?" I asked Visha, and she agreed. I pulled her to the side a little distance from Troy.

"I think we should leave. I changed my mind, I don't want this."

"Nope, we are not going anywhere until you finish what we were here for in the first place. I'm so sorry but we can't leave. Let's get you styled up." she said.

"Sorry for making you wait Troy, you may start."

"No problem, can you sit here, miss?" I sat stiffly on the chair, and 2 different girls came to my side.

"Make her more beautiful, and oh yeah, just do everything, don't worry about the money I will pay." I heard Visha whisper to Troy

*******

After 2 hours of torture, I was finally done.

"Oh my, you're the most beautiful piece of art I've worked on," Troy said, admiring me.

"True, just look at the hairstyle. It suits your badass personality well, and your skin is glowing, too. You look more badass, what is left now is the dress, but we will buy it tomorrow. " Visha said excitedly.

"Thank you so much, Troy. Let's go, Alissa, " Visha said, and we went back to the Rossi castle.

She just dropped me at the gate and set off to her home. When I went inside, I walked to the living room and found Aries and Ryder.

"I'm back, guys," I said and sat down on the couch.

"Damn, you look so freaking badass with that hairstyle, and your skin is almost glowing," Ryder said, looking at me from head to toe in what looked like admiration or something.

"You look beautiful, sis," Aries said.

"I know," I replied in my usual emotionless voice, and he just shrugged, already used to it.

"Are they back?" I asked Ryder, and he shook his head.

A/N: I don't know what to write, so I'm moving on to the following day

*******

It was a Friday, and again, everyone was out, this time even Ryder. It was just me, Aries and Visha who just arrived. I was too lazy to go out to shop for a dress so I told Visha to order the dress instead.

I was busy on my Mac book while Visha was ordering the dress, I just told her to order any that she sees fit as long as it's not bright and stuff. Aries on the other side was just scrolling down his phone on social media. He doesn't have a care in the world.

After a few hours of waiting, the dress came.



⬆The dress Visha ordered for Alissa.

"Oh my God, it looks so sexy," Visha squealed, and I just continued doing my business on my Mac book again. So far, I've managed to raise about 2 billion in my father's legal companies. I know right, it's so cool.

"I hanged the dress in your closet, I will get going now, bye," Visha said, and she left.

Hours passed while I was still inside my room on my Mac book. It was now time for dinner. I closed my Mac book and hid it before going downstairs to the dining room.

Once everyone was seated, we started to eat.

"So, I guess all of you are ready for tomorrow, right?" Eric asked.

"Of course, Daddy, we are, I can't wait," Mia said excitedly.

"Oh right, the Kingston's will be there too,"

"What!? Asher Kingston will be there? Oh my God' Mia squealed again.

"Yes they are the VIP's at the gala so behave yourselves, it will be nice if you will be able to hook him up but don't do anything stupid he's very dangerous" Eric said.

After dinner, I went up to my room, Aries went to his too, but not before, wishing me a good night.

When I went inside my room I saw 2 boxes, one was bigger than the other. I went near them and saw a letter. I picked it up and read it.

'Привет, милая. В этой коробке платье, я слышала, ты завтра пойдешь на бал, так что надень его. Пока, увидимся завтра

From Asher❤️'

T:Hi there. There's a dress in this box, I heard you're going to the ball tomorrow, so wear it. Bye, see you tomorrow.

I smiled and took the boxes without opening them and put them inside my closet
