Rina

Rina Zante

Twenty-five minutes ago

I jammed my eyes shut, hoping that perhaps it was a dream. There should be no way what I'd seen was real. But upon slipping my eyes open, I was met with the same thing. A naked couple and littered around them were their clothes. My gaze accidently fell on the guy's penis, and I coughed out an apology.

"I'm s-s-sorry, so sorry for barging in. I was looking for my bracelet and I thought it-it- would be in here... I'm so sorry, so very s-s-sorry."

I didn't look up to know what their reaction was. My goal was to pick up my bracelet which I'd let go off on sighting this gory scene, and hoot off. Luckily, I spotted it lying some feet away. I grabbed it and scampered out, while stuttering, "I will be going now."

With swift steps, I climbed the stairs and got to my room. Mamma looked up from her bag, and said, "Did you find it?"

I nodded. Despite my shaken self I added, "I must have dropped while we were touring."

"Told you so." She turned to the bag and began packing the clothes right in. The penis of the empty-room guy flashed before my eyes. I flinched. Oh God. This was the first time I was seeing a penis and it was that long? How big was his stuff? It made me shudder. How on earth had that girl not broken down? I mean the thing was gigantic. I groaned. No, no. I didn't like this.

"Are you okay?"

I looked at Mamma, my face scrunched up in disgust from how bad my stomach churned. I might just throw up here.

Mamma drew closer. "Rina."

I sighed. "I'm okay, Mamma. Just that..." I squeezed my eyes tight. Argh.

"No, you're not. What's wrong?"

Should I tell her? Mamma was quite reserved about such a topic, just like me. But I had to tell her. I couldn't bottle this. Plus, I wondered who in his right senses would be sleeping with someone when every other person was working.

"I saw a guy...and a girl downstairs. They were...doing it." I covered my face with my hands, embarrassment surging upwards to face

"What? Where?"

"Downstairs, Mamma. Just close to the kitchen. There was this dining room by the side and I'd gone there because of this strange sound coming from it. I thought someone was hurt."

"A room close to the kitchen?" Mamma said, then her brown eyes popped open. "La Stanza Nera. That's La Stanza Nera, Rina!"

I gasped. "What? I didn't..."

"We were warned not to step into that room. What happened to your ears?"

I tried to speak, but my words got stuck in my throat. La Stanza Nera? How hadn't I known that? Mia—

The door swung open, swallowing up the remainder of my thoughts. At the door was an elegantly dressed woman who was a pure definition of beauty. The Luna. Alvina Moreno. Mamma genuflected, and so did I.

"Buon chorusedo," we chorused.

"What did you see?" Slowly, I lifted my gaze to meet Luna's glassy blue eyes—my heart having a fist match with my chest.

"I..." Oh, Lord. Could this day get any worse. "I..."

The Luna's sharp glare made me shut up and rearrange my thoughts.

Looking down on my socked feet, I said, "I saw a guy and a girl naked...at La Stanza Nera." I didn't know why I added the last part. It was a dire mistake that would land me in trouble, no doubts. Oh, how I'd blown this up. How had gotten Mamma and I into trouble?

"A naked guy, you say," the Luna sighed. "Describe him."

What? I whipped my head at her. Her deadpanned expression pinched me harder. I pursed my lips. "Uhm...he, uh. He's uhm, dark-haired. Muscled, uhm...has a, uh, wolf tattoo on his arm."

The Luna muttered something under her breath that I couldn't hear well.

"Vincenzo!" she hollered. "Vincenzo Gaspare Moreno!"

In a flash, a figure got to the door. It was the guy. This time he had on a trouser, although he was shirtless, his abs displayed to perfection. My heart swung into my mouth, my eyes blinking frantically.

"Stai cercando di uccidermi? Is that it?" the Luna barked. I winced as a result. "How many times do I have to ring it into those large ears of yours that this is a home. A home, Vincenzo, not a brothel."

Following her last statement, Vincenzo glanced at me. No, the proper expression should be glared. His eyes peered at me, the hate in them very much visible.

"Look at me, and not the maid!" the Luna shot. "Of all the places you think you could have your rendezvous, it was my dining room. How dare you?"

Vincenzo clenched his jaw, his burning gaze matching Luna's.

"You should be lucky your father isn't around. He definitely won't handle this light as I am now." Luna then walked closer to him. She was way taller than Mamma and I, and she was by far taller than what was considered average for females. However, standing face to face with this guy made her look like a dwarf.

"This should be the last time you bring any of those sluts here again. The last time, Vincenzo." She pointed her polished finger at him and stomped off.

Vincenzo remained in the room. His eyes were blazing so much that I could lierally feel the heat shooting from them. I swallowed, hoping that the ground would open up and gulp me down.

Then, he looked me over, with the same glint of disgust Mia had offered me earlier. Except this time, the intensity was to the high heavens. Done decimating my self-esteem, he flounced out, banging the door behind him.

I jerked, slowly opening my eyes again.

"You see it now, Rina? What led you to La Stanza Nera in the first place!" Mamma said, a hint of panic in her tone.

I didn't really pay much attention to her. My brain was sprinting, processing all these at once—mostly the scary fact that the guy I had ratted out, the guy I had spotted naked was the Alpha's son.

La merda. Goddess have mercy.

A/N: Rina sure has something coming her way lmao.
