The charm of Mr. De Luca

The Queen of Cassa de Luca

Mia continued to notice Matteo's strange demeanor. The gaze that the man gave Sorella was felt awkward by her. However, Mia tried to cover up those feelings. Immediately shifted his gaze to Sorella who was still bowed. “Sorella, come in!” bring Mia. He walked out of the door and went back inside. Sorella followed him. The woman still hid her face from Mia.

“To be honest, I feel confused about what to do at this time. I don't know what to wear and ...” Mia looked at the blonde woman. “Yes, that's why you're here,” muttered later, making Sorella lift her face and smile.

“There are some clothes that have been prepared for you, Miss,” said the woman in the white shirt. “After Mr. Matteo contacted Mr. Damiano, he immediately told me to prepare everything. Mr. Matteo explains your body size in great detail ...” Sorella was silent for a moment. He covered his lips as if he regretted the words he had spoken just now. “Sorry, Miss Mia. My point ...” Sorella was silent again. He looks confused.

Mia could understand the meaning of the woman's words, so she did not feel offended. Mia smiled sweetly. “Are you nervous, Sorella?” tanyanya gently.

Sorella shook her head slowly. “I know what Mr. Matteo is like. I'm just afraid of making mistakes, but I'll do my best,”.

“Don't be too tense. I think maybe we should just start, but I want to take a shower for a while,” said Mia.

“Will I prepare, Miss,” reply Sorella. He immediately went into the bathroom. While Mia cleans herself in the bathroom, Sorella prepares everything that Mia will wear at the meeting tonight.

Exactly around eighteen-thirty, all the elders of the organization had been present in the hall of Cassa de Luca. They were the ones who used to certify Matteo when he was appointed the head of the organization. This time, the blessing of them was again awaited by Matteo.

The man, accustomed to his sharp gaze, had prepared with a black shirt equipped with a gray blazer. Matteo stood gallantly before the elders of the organization, who had been waiting in the hall since a while ago. This was the second time he had to ask permission to do something in his life. If it were not for the traditions and rules within the organization, he would have been rather lazy to attend the event. However, whatever he will do for the sake of immediately having Mia, the idol of his heart.

He stared at one by one the elders who were present sharply. As usual, Matteo was silent for a moment before he began to express his intentions. “What else are you waiting for, My son?” whispered Damiano from the right side of Matteo. Antonio was still standing upright with both hands half crossed at the front of his body. The man's gaze was straight forward and expressionless at all.

“What Mia is ready?” Matteo whispered back to Damiano.

“Sorella has prepared your future wife well, Theo. You don't have to worry about that,” Damiano replied. Matteo nodded slowly. He immediately opened the meeting.

“Buona sera (Good night),” sound Matteo sound that is quite loud and firm in the room. All the elders who were standing, immediately gave a special greeting from the Organization de Luca.

The elders, numbering ten, formed a semicircle and faced Matteo. They then half lowered their head while sticking their right hand on their left chest. A moment later, Matteo nodded in gratitude.

“I thank you for your willingness to attend this meeting. As Mr. Damiano Baresi has told us before, the purpose of this meeting is not to discuss something related to the affairs of the organization directly, but ... I want to introduce someone to you all ...” Matteo. He then turned to look at the entrance of the hall which was still tightly closed. After taking a slow breath, Matteo again said without taking his eyes off the door. “Come in, Mia!” his orders loudly.

Not long after, the lawang with the two doors immediately opened and showed a beautiful face with beautiful brown hair. Mia was standing there. He looked so elegant in a long-sleeved knee dress in navy blue. Dress is collared and has a V Neck accent that is not too low. On the front waist to the left of the dress, there is a ribbon decoration that is not too big, but managed to show Mia's slim waist.

Meanwhile, Mia's long hair was left with a little braid on the top that was decorated with a small hairpin of silver. Mia also looks so fresh with a dark berry lipstick color that is suitable for her yellow skin.

Mia started to step in with a straight look at Matteo who at that moment seemed so fascinated by her appearance. The swift pace of the stiletto rights Mia was wearing sounded so rhythmic, breaking the silence within the hall. It made the nervousness in Mia's heart bigger, especially now she became the center of attention of all who were present there.

Mia again saw a loving look at Matteo's pair of gray colors. He smiled meaningfully at the man.

A moment later, Matteo again directed his gaze forward, to the elders who were still making the two lovebirds the center of attention. “I've decided to have a wedding in two days. I'm not going to ask for your opinion on my decision, because it's an absolute private matter. I just wanted to introduce Mia and tell her the happy news. May you all deign to attend the wedding of the two of us,” Matteo closed with his style of speech that looks very charming in the eyes of Mia, making the young woman in blue clothes blush.

A moment of silence, enveloping the hall space. The elders looked at each other and whispered, before finally one of them came forward and approached towards Matteo.

A white-haired old man with a slightly bald head, walked slowly towards the point where Matteo was standing. His wooden stick made a loud noise as it clashed against the floor of the hall. “Mr Matteo de Luca,” said as he nodded. “Nona Florecita,” she clasped Mia's hand for a moment, then took it off. “I represent the other elders, congratulate the arrival of the new queen at the Palace de Luca. We express appreciation for this invitation,” he said.

“It turns out Mr. Matteo has not forgotten the customs and traditions that have been passed down through generations. Therefore, we are very happy and bless the bond between the two of you,” said the man who was greeted by applause from other elders, including Damiano. Only Antonio was invisible moving his hand. The middle-aged man was still standing upright like a lifeless statue.

“But, according to tradition, if the Queen turns out to be betrayed and unfaithful to the organization, then we elders are also entitled to punish her and remove her from the protection of the Palace de Luca,” firmly the old man then.

Mia held her breath. What one of the elders said was truly terrifying to him. Mia is just a layman who never knows anything about the mafia world and all the ins and outs. Diruenya Matteo fingers quite tight. Matteo even felt Mia's palms begin to get wet with sweat.

“You have frightened my future wife, Mr. Giorgio Monti!” matteo growled with his sharp gaze. “Mia is just a simple girl living in the suburbs of Venice. He does not understand the intrigue and politics of the organization,” said Matteo while tightly grasping Mia's fingers.

Matteo then turned his gaze to the other elders. “Aware of the information for you, it was this girl who saved my life when little sister Moriarty tried to kill me. It provides shelter as well as shelter and food. This is the girl who treated my wounds until they healed. A girl like Mia, I can assure you that I will never betray her loved ones!” matteo firmly. Matteo slightly raised his head, as if challenging anyone who dared to refute his words.

No one dared to return a loud cry from Matteo. All were silent with stunned faces. Their whole outlook was fixed on Mia. Until a moment later, the old man deheman named Giorgio Monti ended the awkward and stiff atmosphere that had dominated. “Alright, Mr. Matteo. I deeply understand your fiery attitude, for I used to be so too,” Giorgio chuckled. He tried to show his calm attitude as an elder.

“Alright, then let's speed up the event tonight. I can't wait to enjoy the delicious dishes of the famous chef in Casa de Luca,” Giorgio raised his right hand high to the one that was soon followed by the other elders.

After that, each of them reached into something from the pocket in the black suit they were wearing.. A small pin made of gold, they lift up high. The pin has always been an important part of an organization's events, such as an organization's anniversary celebration event, or a clan victory party over all their competitors. They then placed the golden pin into the black cup located in the middle of the hall.

Giorgio himself handed the gold pin to his aide, and it was the adjutant who put the gold pin into the cup. The adjutant carefully lifted the cup and directed it to Matteo and Mia.

“With the end of this ceremony, we declare that we accept the presence of Miss Florecita Mia in Cassa de Luca,”.
