- About the Author
Wearing suits has to be my least favorite thing ever. They are uncomfortable and weird fitting. My dad says that it's a way people will respect you and my mom said it made me look handsome, but I don't care.
It's uncomfortable and doesn't make me look good.
"Thalia you’re such a bitch." I muttered while Thalia kept taking pictures of me.
Dad wants us all to dress nicely because we have to go to this weird party thing that my dad's work holds every year. It's always so boring because I never have anyone to talk to.
Thalia always ends up hanging out with Jane or arguing with Alexander over everything that is bullshit.
Every time we go through this bullshit party Thalia always makes fun of me and takes pictures to send them to her stupid friends.
"Thalia stop taking pictures of your brother." Mom said while looking at Thalia with an unknown expression. "And I also told you so many times to stop cussing, Killian." My mom narrowed her eyes at me.
My mom, Aria De Luca, is one of the best-known assassins in the world. She and my dad, Ace De Luca, met when my mom was trying to kill him during her mission. They both fell in love after a long and confusing story. They had my sister Thalia and then me.
Once the driver stops the car he comes around and opens the door so that my family and I can get out of the car.
My mom is wearing a long dress with long sleeves that were off the shoulder. My father was wearing a black suit with a dark red tie matching my mother's dress. My sister is wearing a black dress where it practically goes up her ass but of course, she managed to sneak past my dad and wear that.
But my dad and Thalia did fight over what she is wearing which I didn't expect anything less. They both fight over almost anything.
After a bunch of people takes photos of us, we all head inside the large building where the gala was being held.
Some people call it a ball, but it seems more like a Gala since it's much more modern than a ball.
"Please welcome Ace and Aria De Luca!" The announcer said and I swear when people looked up at us, they were about to kneel.
My family is considered royalty but not for the right reason. People are terrified of my parents and what they have done.
My father would tell me some of his most famous and well-known missions. He also told me about his best way to scare someone off and that was fire.
I swear what he tells me about fire makes me want to touch it more.
