The Bodyguard's
Crystal Night's

Meanwhile, thousands of kilometers away from Italy, Carlo had managed to gather some of his father's old followers. Those who have high loyalty, have the same goal of reviving the glory of the Red Wolf Clan that has long dimmed and even become lost prestige.

The Grigori have also arrived in Russia. With the help of Felix's colleague Irina, he was finally able to meet up face to face with his old acquaintance Boris Vasiliev. It just so happened that Fyodor took part in the negotiations, so that he who did not know about the history of the Red Wolf Clan, was finally able to understand what the organization was like.

"The immediate descendants of Mr. Nikolai Volkov have returned. He was even in Russia. However, we are still keeping the crown prince a secret, as Viktor's men are hunting him at this time. After all, the original descendant of the Volkov family was the only one who was entitled to the throne of the Red Wolf Clan" Grigori said seriously. The man looked very dignified as he spoke before Boris as well as Fyodor.

"Why don't you bring her straight here? I was also very curious about the direct descendant of Mr. Volkov. You know for yourself how close the two of us were back then" recalls Boris, now in his twilight years. The age of former legislators in the government is far above Nikolai and Grigori.

"As I said earlier, Mr. Vasiliev. We deliberately hid the crown prince's whereabouts, for his safety" Grigori said confidently.

"How can I discuss the matter of a good strategy if he's not here, Mr Kostya? I assure you the safety of the crown prince of the Red Wolf Clan will be assured. However, please bring it in front of me so that we can talk in person," Pinta Fyodor while looking seriously at Grigori.

The conversation continued, until the time came for Grigori to leave. From the city of Moscow, he immediately flew towards Sochi where Carlo was currently located. It was unexpected how happy the man was when he met Igor and Ivan, who were his old friends.

Grigori also discussed the results of the meeting with father and son Vasiliev, which took place in the Russian capital. "How about, young master? Are you ready to meet in person with Fyodor as well as his father Boris Vasiliev?" the man asked politely to Carlo who had been silent since, while listening intently.

Carlo did not immediately answer. It seems that he is considering the decision to be taken. However, all the risks he had to face, in order to continue the determination that had been burning in the chest. "It seems like I really have to meet them in person," Carlo said as he looked at the three senior men.

"I hope you can accompany me to meet them" he asked Grigori.

"Oh of course, sir. I'm not going back to Italy first, before you can settle things with the government. I think this is a very good path for us to take, because at this time we have no followers. After the support of our government, then as soon as possible you have to devise a strategy for the attack plan. I suggest that it be made very mature, and of course have to consider all other possibilities that could have appeared unexpectedly," suggested Grigori.

"The three of you are more familiar with the headquarters of the Red Wolf Clan with all its intricacies," Carlo said.

"Yes. However, that's also if Viktor doesn't make any changes. So long time passed. It was not impossible if he had redesigned the old headquarters. The only way is ...." Grigori did not continue his words. He looked meaningfully at Carlo, who was also doing the same to him.

"You are adept at infiltrating people" said the heir to the throne, who was only met with a faint smile by the Grigori.

................

While Charles was busy devising plans and strategies, the situation at the Palazzo de Luca was different. Everyone is busy preparing for a party that will be held later tonight. Preparations were made in as much detail as possible, as Marco and Daniella would invite many important people there.

"May father and mother not invite the rector of your college," Romeo's seductive gnaw was met with a short snort from Tobiah.

"What's the matter, Tobia?" tanya Adriana looked enthusiastic.

"It cannot be considered unimportant, if Romeo had commented on it" Adriana said.

"Can you not interfere in other people's affairs?" Tobia directed her attention to the black-haired girl with blue eyes earlier.

"can't. My curiosity is above average. You won't understand it" said Adriana who always looks cheerful. However, a moment later the teenage girl immediately reached into a small sling bag, when she felt the phone she kept there for quite a while. Adriana checked it out immediately.

It was an incoming call from Achiles. The seventeen-year-old has been in contact with him lately. While Adriana felt there was no problem with the attitude and all the attention that the young man showed. The dark-haired sweet girl immediately passed from before Tobia and Romeo. He chose a place with a considerable distance from the brothers.

Miabella chose to be alone in the room. The girl even fell asleep soundly, and only woke up when it was almost dusk. He's getting ready for the party tonight.

A sleeveless evening dress of satin material was ready for her to wear. Dress with a wide bottom and V accented on the front. A moment later, there was a short complaint from his still innocent lips. Miabella is not used to wearing such clothes. However, he couldn't possibly bring a white singlet and cargo pants into the party.

After applying thin makeup, Miabella grabbed the dress and put it on. For a moment, the beautiful girl looked at her appearance that night through the reflection of a mirror. Although now she is present in different clothes, but the beautiful girl still ties her hair even though she does not wear a ponytail style. Miabella's long brown hair, she tied it simple down below, so the ends slightly covered her wide-open back.

Moments later, a knock was heard on the door. "Sister, are you ready?" Adriana's voice was so loud despite being blocked by the walls of the room. "Mother wants you to join the party hall immediately" exclaimed the girl again.

"I'll be there soon" Miabella said briefly. It was heavy to step out of the room. Miabella is currently wanting to be alone. After all, he was not a party buff, let alone a formal event like the one he would attend in a moment.

However, Miabella also did not want to go back to making trouble and disappointing both parents. With feet wrapped in heels nearly eleven inches tall, the girl walked out. He walked down a long corridor, in the dimness of the dim yellow light. His gray eyes were fixed straight ahead. In addition, she had to be careful with her steps, so as not to stumble on the bottom of the dress.

After arriving at the party hall, Miabella immediately approached Mia who was chatting casually with Daniella and Francesca. While the men were engrossed in their discussion. Adriana joins Romeo and Tobia.

"You are beautiful, Bella," said Francesca with sparkling eyes.

"She's my daughter" Mia said proudly and was immediately greeted with laughter from her two sisters. Something a Miabella doesn't understand, because there's nothing funny to her at all.

The party continues to go on with great fanfare. The longer, the more invited guests. They come from all over Italy, some even from abroad. His position as chairman of large organizations such as Klan de Luca, has forced Marco to be good at socializing in cooperation.

All the faces present in the party, looked happy and radiant. They enjoy everything that is there. From the start of the banquet, music, to the warm atmosphere that intertwines. However, what is the pleasure of the invited guests, in fact there is nothing in Miabella. The girl felt a great emptiness. He felt lonely in the crowd.

Secretly, Miabella stepped out of the hall where the party was taking place. He chose to be alone while staring at the pitch of the night.

"Is the night sky far more beautiful than the crystal chandelier inside?" The voice of a man had spread the daydream of Miabella. The girl immediately looked over. A blond man with a pair of blue eyes, came to him.
