            To say I'm nervous would be a huge understatement. Today is the day I'm revealed as the new CEO and president of Coletti Enterprise. It's going to be released by my publicist and lawyer then I say a few words. Teo will be attending with me and I even got him to wear a suit. Teo is the only one who knows about the news. I've spent the past few days trying to figure out what to do with the house. Once the press conference is over I plan to go there.

"The new CEO and president Danica Woods" Mr. Thomas says snapping me out of my thoughts.

I stand straightening my peach colored dress and walk to the podium as cameras flash. "Hello everyone, I was just as surprised as the news that I'm sure everyone else is." I smile gently, "James Coletti was an excellent businessman and a terrific mentor. He took a chance on a little psych major from NYU and I couldn't have been more appreciative. He saw potential in me when no one else did and left me his only baby. My goal is to continue his legacy in the best way possible while growing to the levels he would've wanted. Thank you."

I step down and we walk out the room. Teo and I get into the awaiting car. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. "You did great" he says kissing my temple.

"Thanks."

I tell the driver the address and it's not long before we arrive. It's not the first time I've been here but it's my first time as the owner. I lead Teo into the Spanish styled mansion, it's too much of a beautiful home to sell. We spend time walking around the home that still holds all of his personal belongings.

"What do you think?" I ask as we sit in the kitchen.

He shrugs, "it's up to you tesoro."

"I know that but we're partners so I'm asking for your advice."

"Do you want to sell it?"

I shake my head, "it's too gorgeous to sell."

"Give it to your folks or your friends, everything they would need is here and it's a huge space."

I nod, "that's true, everyone would have a wing."

"Your detail starts today."

I pout, "do I have to?"

"Yes, you're getting a big corporation and there's going to be crazy motherfuckers."

"But I'm changed and stronger."

"It's not up for discussion Danica."

I pout, "Fine meanie, how many?"

"Two for the time being. I have some business to attend to."

I cock an eyebrow, "what?"

He sighs in what I take to be annoyance, "when I killed Antonio I got his territories and the people I didn't kill looking for you."

I nod, "I understand. I have a lot to do in a short period of time too. Our house needs to be finished now that we live in it and staffed plus I have interviews for a personal assistant. How's my sister?"

He glares, "no men Danica."

I resist the urge to roll my eyes, "I'm looking for the best candidate regardless of sex. Answer my question."

"She's healing decently."

I grin widely, "what do you want to do for your birthday?"

He smirks, "you."
