《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."

Welcome to the fantastic world of Bios. Another world, not much unlike our own, with some exceptions, such as, say, the presence of gods, demons, and magic.

And so, as time went on, history was rewritten, and those amazing things became, to the population at large, the stuff of legends. However, in the year of 2017 A.S. (Anno Salvator), a group of teenagers find themselves pulled into the magical side of Bios as they encounter the Magic Knight Forces, discover dark secrets, and realize that a great threat is rising from its long sleep...
