Chapter 17: Chapter 17

　　Leonardo Point of view

　　"Oh come on, Leo. Don't brood over nothing!" Niccolo stated with exasperation clear in his voice.

　　Brood over nothing?

　　"Really, Niccolo? You brought your mistress, a freaking prostitute house worker as your date and you are telling me to give a proud smile?" I raked my hand through my thick hair trying to control my anger.

　　"This is not the first time though. I'm bringing her with me as my date from almost ten years and I don't care what you think about her. She is and will be my only date further too." Niccolo ended the discussion with a 'no more argument' look.

　　I know he's vexed up with this discussion. It's been years that we start Christmas Eve or any party with the same discussion. He always prefers a masquerade parties because his little mistress is a shy or most precisely and person with lot of shame to even attend a high end society parties.
