The Game of Deception: Broken Trust

I I /Riccardo's POV/

***This morning***

<" Midnight is the witching hour, and tonight's game will be one for the ages. Keep your eyes open and your guard up, because the stakes are high and the judge is ruthless. One wrong move and you'll be the star of a horror story that nobody wants to hear. Don't say I didn't warn you."> It's always the same message, every six months. I'm tired of it already.

Frustrated by what's inside, I threw the envelope on my table. But shockingly, there was another fancy envelope. I looked at it suspiciously before taking it to see what was inside. It was an invitation for the annual ball Eliana throws. This is making me more confused than the whole stupid game. Putting the black invitation card on top of my documents, I took the other paper out.
