^^^^ Lorenzo's Alpha Wolf ring that Esmerelda- Antoinette bought him ^^^^
Esmerelda- Antoinette's POV
After I finished my Snicker's bar that Emiliano got me I decided to get Lorenzo a quick gift first. It was 9 in the morning and most shops would probably be open. I decided why not just get him some jewelry. I always give gifts I develop in my own companies but why not go on a shopping spree this time. I decided that I would go to a jewelry store and buy Lorenzo and me matching rings. First of all, I would have to change my outfit so people take me seriously when I am buying jewelry. I changed into a cute peach-colored blazer and pants. It was a business casual kind of look. I took a small purse with a checkbook and my black card in it. As I was changing my clothes I looked at myself in the mirror and saw a bruise. It was on my neck and jaw where Lorenzo had grasped me tightly. I winced as I touched the tender bruise. I continued with my task at hand forgetting about the bruise. I didn't have any makeup or concealer as I have heard Alessandra say to cover up the bruise. I heard Alessandra say once that she ran out of concealer so she couldn't cover her hickeys. Whatever that means. I headed downstairs to the main gate. I exited the mansion. My bodyguard wasn't with me at the time which I didn't really care about. I hopped into one of the basic taxis that you would find on the normal road. I gave him my address. The tracker in my necklace was still there. I didn't remove it. I don't know why. I arrived at my destination in about 10 minutes as I thanked the driver and gave him loose cash with a tip of 10 euros. I opened the door to a large building that said, Golden Dove. The most famous jewelry shop in Italy. The cool air produced from the air conditioning hit my face. It was the month of May so it was getting a little hot but it wasn't unbearable. It has barely been a month since I arrived here and I am already growing fond of my family. My family. A word I haven't heard in over 3 years. I sigh and walk deeper into the building. There was a reception which I approached.
"Hello, how many I help you." She said, probably wondering why a little girl was here.
"Oh I would like to make a purchase here," I said showing her my black card to avoid a dilemma and being kicked out. She glanced at it and nodded.
"Please come this way." The kind lady said. She popped in some digits on a device and a blurred glass door opened where I could tell rich clients were buying jewelry. They were all being tended by different managers dressed in suits or formal wear. The lady brought me to one of the counters where there was a velvet seat. I sat and thanked her.
"Is there anything you would like Miss for a beverage?" She asked. I mean I just ate a Snickers bar so my stomach was a little full but I wouldn't mind some cold water.
"Some chilled water would be great, thank you," I say and bring my attention to the manager who was going to sell jewelry to me.
"Hello, Miss. What are you looking for today?" The man asked behind the counter. I smiled as the receptionist came back with cold water. I sipped it and answered.
"So I was wanting to buy a gift. I was specifically looking for thumb rings." I say.
"Ahh well, we have a wonderful selection of thumb rings here. Can you tell me who it is for?" He asked.
"Well, you see it's for me and my brother. Do you know how there are friendship rings? I was looking for a ring that would show our brotherly and sisterly relationship." I answer.
"Ah well, we have different stones that tell different relationships. For example, the Amethyst stone signifies protection, or Emerald that signifies protector. We have a pearl that shows femininity or diamond that signifies innocence, hope, light, etc." He informs me.
"Perhaps I could have 2 rings with similar designs just one with an emerald for my brother and a diamond for me," I ask.
"Yes, we can surely do that. We also have a few designs here look at these." The man shows. I took the papers and saw one design that I loved. It was an alpha wolf with blue stones in it. I wanted it in emerald.
"Does this wolf ring come in emerald?" I ask.
"Of course it does. If you would like we also have this wolf cub design." He showed me a cute little wolf cub ring. That would be perfect but it was in ruby.
"Does it come in diamonds?" I asked
"Of course it does. We can also in grave specific words on the metal rim of the ring if you would like. Ooh, that would be an epic idea.
"On the alpha wolf ring, could you engrave Pratonus in a cursive font and in the wolf cub ring could you engrave Soror in cursive," I ask.
"Of course it can be done." He answers.
"By when?" I question.
"Umm, it can actually be done in 20 minutes." His Italian accent says.
"Okay, that would be great where do I pay?" He points to a desk that I head to and thank him. I pay for the rings. It cost a total of 2 million dollars. 1 million for each. Perfect. Everything here was being issued in either dollars or euros as there were many international customers. I took a 100 euro bill out hoping to give it to the manager that tended to me. He arrived with my rings in a small little bag 20 minutes later. I happily took it and gave him the 100 euro bill. He took it and thanked me as I headed out. It was currently 10 o'clock. This whole thing took 1 hour. Not bad. I took a taxi back to the mansion. I guess no one realized I left the house or nobody was in the house. I don't, didn't really care. I headed to Lorenzo's office. I know he has an office and what he does there. I knocked and heard a gruff voice saying to come in. I slowly entered. Lorenzo raised his eyebrows but I simply took a seat.
"I am sorry Lorenzo," I say loud enough for him to hear. He keeps a very straight face.
"I didn't mean to be rude and roll my eyes," I say. Still, he says nothing.
"Ummm I know you're upset but I got you a gift," I say. Still, he stares at me. I take two velvet boxes out of the bag and place them side by side.
"Umm, so I got us custom-made rings. They are meant to be worn on your thumb. I got me one and you one as well. They are matching rings. Here you go." I pass him his box. I keep my gaze down as I hear him open the box. He closes it and still says nothing. I must have really upset him.
"Well I mean keep the gift, you don't have to wear it. I will wear mine though. This is what it looks like." I say and show him the ring inside my velvet box." He still maintains a hard face.
"Well, I guess I will leave now," I say and head for the door. As I turn around I am pulled by none other than Lorenzo. I inwardly smile.
"Thank you Bambina, I love the gift. I accept your apology. I am glad you learned what you did wrong." he pulls me in for a warm hug and bounces me on his lap. I hide my face in his neck as I feel tears in my eyes. I hug him tighter. I feel him pop the alpha ring on himself and the alpha cub ring on my thumb. I smile. He rubs circles on my back and I start to fall asleep.
"I love you bubby," I say and drift off to a nice calming sleep in my oldest brother. Lorenzo's lap.
