Luca’s POV

What is eight years in this issue with the assaulter? It was nothing to be honest, I was going to deal with him in a way he wouldn’t ever forget. I hated men who acted like animals with a really intense passion, it was those kinds of men that went to kidnap my cousin Aria in hopes of getting their sick ways with her, and that only made me despise those kinds of people more.

I breathed out a small sigh, feeling my chest tighten up with the whole feeling that was currently coming forward to assault my brains at the same time, almost to the point of me feeling almost overwhelmed. I tugged Sofia against me even more, wrapping my arm more firmly around her waist and carding my fingers through her hair, moving my fingers to the front of her face to move some part of the hair on her face, to the side of her ear.

I leaned down and tugged her face upwards a little, until I was pressing my lip against the top of her head, dragging my lips softly against her forehead and puffing ou

    Luca’s POV I leaned down and loosened my hold on her hair to slide it down her back, until my hand was gripping her thigh. I did the same with my other hand and once both my hands were on the same spots around her bare thighs – because she was currently in a small skirt, and I lifted her up in a single move. She was startled at first, a small sound sliding out of her lips as her hands made to grasp at my shoulders, just as I tugged her thighs around my ribs and sides, so she’d be a head higher than I was in this position, and she stared down at me with wide eyes and parted lips, her hands holding tightly to my throat. It was the first time I was completely lifting her into my arms since we got married and the only question that crossed my mind in the next moment, was the fact that why hadn’t I tried this out since all these while.She felt really small and weightless in my arms and I held her tightly against me, staring up at her and just watching her. Her eyes fluttered a

    Luca’s POV “But what if Matilda or Sarah sees me up here in your arms?” She asked after a moment, and I paused in my trails to completely focus my gaze on her face. She was currently worrying her terth over her lower lip and I grinned up at her before starting to speak.“They wouldn’t mind, ok?” I said to her and watched her hesitate for a moment before nodding her head at me, her hand moving around on my shoulders to tighten around even more. I made my way down the hallway after turning around and I headed for my office here in the house.“Where are we going?” She asked after a few moments, staring around the whole place as we moved further through the hallway. I puffed out a deep breath against her throat and I deeply enjoyed the feeling of her thigh tightening around me, as a shudder ran through her body in the next second, in response to the gust of air I had blew at her bare throat. “We’re going to my office.” I said to her in tne next second as I paused before my office do

    Luca POV “Can you get me the two guys to come over here by noon, I need them to help me find someone.” I said to one of my general assistants on the phone as I made my way upstairs towards my office.“Yeah, that sounds good. Let me know when you get here.” I said to him before ending the call, just as I made my way into my secretaries’ office and into mine in the next second. I sank into my chair and puffed out a deep breath, before starting to tug out my guns from my pants pockets. I pushed myself to my feet after a while, and then I made my way towards the bathroom. I washed my hands and mopped my face with a wet towel a little, before making my way back into the office, straight to my window. I paused before it and tugged the curtains open, allowing the morning sunlight to shine into the office. After a few more minutes, I made my way back to my table and picked up my phone, sending a text to James. I tugged on my hair a little, digging my fingers into the roots and taking m

    Luca’s POV We both stared at each other pointedly in the next second, and I knew exactly what it was that he was thinking about even before he could speak, making me lean forward against the table. “I know exactly what you’re thinking about at this very moment.” I said to him quietly.“Good, because it’s the logical thing to think of at the moment.” He said to me in response and I sighed deeply.“Trust me, I’ve thought about it. I did think about it as soon as she told me about it.” I said to him in the next second, lifting my hand to tap absentmindedly on my phone on the top of my desk.“So…” James started to speak and I shook my head immediately.“They can’t do it.” I said to him almost immediately.“They can’t? How sure are you?” He asked almost immediately and I rolled my eyes in the next second.“It’s how they respect me so much, I don’t think they can ever do something like that to my wife, have they no fear left in them?” I said to him and watched as he nodded his head on

    Sofia’s POV Luca was waiting for me outside the walk-in closet in the bedroom and I was almost done with getting ready. I was feeling all giddy and my insides were currently fluttering and jumping around. It felt like there was a thousand butterflies were flapping their wings all around every parts of my stomach and I was silently screaming in my head. The fact that Luca had asked me out formally and had called me a date still has me reeling and I couldn’t even try to deny the fact thst I was really excited about it.I clipped on my earrings to my ear and started to run a piece it comb through my hair. Once I was done, I creamed it and watched it gleamed in the night light, and then I walked towards the floor length mirror in here and glanced at myself through the mirror. I was currently in a gown that was short, and the length of the gown was only a few inches past the middle if my thighs.Most of my dresses here were all a bunch of skimpy stuff, and even though thru weren’

    Sofia’s POV After he had given me a compliment, and because I know it was the right thing to do, coupled with the fact that I never give him compliments, compared to the amount of times he showers me with compliments, I began to speak after a few moments.“I like your curls, they look really good.” I whispered to him, and as soon as he smiled down at me instantly, making his dimples pop out in the next moment, all I wanted to do in that particular moment was to run and hide away from him, because my stomach had started to really tumble around as soon as he had smiled down at me.“Is my hair the only thing you’re going to compliment?” He asked in a teasing voice and I felt my cheeks grow hot almost immediately, and I whined low in my throat and I ducked my head, staring down at me covered feet.“I’m just teasing, bunny.” I heard him start to say after a moment, just as I felt his hand come to rest on my hair, and before I could blink, he had started to stroke his fingers through m

    Luca’s POV I alighted the car first before holding my hand out for Sofia, and she accepted it immediately, as she stepped out of the car and stood beside me. I watched as her eyes went wide the second she noticed how the place looked, because her eyes were roaming over everywhere in the next moment. I was pleased by her reaction and with her reaction for the outside of the restaurant, I was really sure she was going to be blown away when we made our way into the restaurant. I loosened my hold on her hand and slid it around her waist, pulling her against my side even more, and she fit against my side really perfectly. I loved how we fit so perfectly against each other, we were the perfect match when it comes to height and the fact that she was currently in heels didn’t really make much difference because I was still really taller than she was at tne moment.“Are you excited, bunny?” I asked in a low voice, still watching her head turn around and around as she tried to catch a g

    Luca’s POV At this point, all I wanted to do was to kiss her so intensely, but I had a dinner reservation and I really do not want to be an asshole by denying her the chance to have dinner in here tonight, coupled with the fact that I still wanted to have dinner with her… which means any dirty thought I was having at the moment was going to have to wait until when we get back home tonight. Sofia turned her head back around to stare at the little child rev after a few moments, and I had a feeling it was because she didn’t have an idea of what to say, which I perfectly understood because even I myself had been pretty surprised at the words that had escaped my lips moments ago. I hadn’t thought it through at all and had literally spoken as it had popped into my head, so I kind of understood her speechlessness at the moment.The damn elevator was taking forever to come back to the first floor, I thought to myself as I turned my head around to stare at the little children once again.

    Sofia’s pov The kids had been bursting with excitement, which only meant one thing. It meant more headaches for Luca and I.“Baby, we talked about this, didn’t we? You can’t check the presents until it’s Christmas.” I murmured to Aria while holding her against my chest. She was clearly unhappy about this tiny rule because her frown deepened at once.“But it’s so far awayyyyy! No one is gonna know if I take a peek.”I chuckled as I let her slid down. “Daddy is gonna know.” I reminded her and that seemed to make her have a change of heart.“Oh.” She hesitated a little. “I guess I can wait a bit more.”“More like one more day, honey cause it’s tomorrow!” I gushed out and a grin split out on her face.“Really?!” She demanded and after getting another confirmation, she went off to find her brother, leaving me to myself. I sighed as I watched her leave with a fond smile on my face while massaging my forehead. I called out to her to be careful before I got back to what I was doing before.

    FOUR YEARS LATER Sofia’s pov “Be careful, honey!” I called out at once, but I doubt she heard me as she hurriedly raced forward till she was standing before James, a glass of milk carefully clutched in her hand.“Here it is, Uncle James!” She called out enthusiastically and a familiar feeling of fondness swelled in my heart as I watched as an exaggerated look of awe got plastered on James’ face as he accepted the glass of milk.“Thank you, Aria! You’re so hardworking.” He complimented as he took a few gulps of the milk because a tiny sip wasn’t gonna be accepted by Aria who’s clearly still waiting for more compliments.“It tastes so nice and fresh, wow.” James gushed and I listened as Aria’s pleased giggles filled up the room. She began to bounce on her toes when she began to speak. “If you noticed, uncle James, the glass wasn’t totally filled up this time because mommy said that’s how it’s supposed to be to avoid it spilling from the top, and I listened to mommy because she’s alwa

    Luca’s POV The bouquet of flowers I had gotten on the way home was a mixture of lilies and tulips, and I paired it with a bunch of balloons and a wrapped gift on the side. It’s a little past six and I couldn’t wait to be home already. I couldn’t wait to get home to my wife and our babies.Work has been quite stressful for the past month, the mafia aspect, to be specific. After news of my wife giving birth circulated around, I already knew that the amount of enemies I have was automatically gonna triple, and in order to keep my family safe, I was gonna have to be more at alert. The mafia clan had thrown a party in celebration after the birth of our babies, and I had purposely attended it alone, keeping my wife and kids far away from a gathering like that because it was filled with dangerous people from top to bottom.“Your enemies are gonna start attacking you even more now that you have a successor. People who have hoped to replace you if you ended up dying without an h

    Sofia’s pov TWO YEARS LATER “I look ugly and bloated.” I blurted out while eying my reflection in the floor length mirror in the walk-in closet. Luca, who had been running a comb through his hair, paused for a moment before throwing me a glance, and then a smile bloomed on his face.“Of course you don’t! How can you even think that when you look like a goddess right now.” He murmured, discarding his comb and heading in my direction. I pouted at my reflection, not at all impressed by what I was looking at.“Now you’re just lying cause I’m sure goddesses don’t look this bad. My face is swollen and I literally feel like I’m gonna die.” Luca who had now eased up behind me let out a chuckle into my hair as his hand slid around my waist to carefully cradle my large stomach from the sides.“You still look very gorgeous to me. I don’t think your face is ugly, neither do I think you’re no longer sexy, because you still are. Did last night not explain that enough?” He chuckled at the end of

    Luca’s pov It was clear as day that this particular topic has been troubling Sofia for a while now. I could tell from how she was wringing her fingers. I lifted her fingers and brushed my lips across it, and then I let out a long sigh.“If I’m gonna be honest, I haven’t actually thought about it. I just assumed you don’t want them and I was cool with that.” Her eyes widened comically as she whispered. “But… I want children.”I hummed. “I see that now.” “You don’t want children?” Sofia asked after a few moments and I slowly shook my head.“I don’t think I do, cause I don’t actually like the thought of bringing a child into a lifestyle as dangerous as my current one, and leaving the mafia is completely out of the question cause the past would end up catching up with me no matter what.”“Oh.” She whispered while chewing at the inside of her mouth.“Yes, love. But, that aside, I love babies. They’re always so cute and clueless of all the evils in the world.” Sofia laughed at th

    Sofia’s pov TWO YEARS LATER*** The sounds of soft laughter filtered through the screen of the television I was currently staring at and a small smile tugged at the side of my lips as I averted my gaze and took a glance at the wall clock situated at the top of the wall here in the room. It was past eight in the evening, which indicated that Luca was almost home, and an excited feeling coursed down my spine. It doesn’t matter that Luca has almost returned home to me every damn day, that giddy feeling still engulfs me every day.Which is the best thing ever, said my therapist when we stumbled on that topic. It’s been over two years and till date, I’m still yet to stop seeing my therapist. She, a Middle aged woman, has made me feel so much love and comfort than my mother has done for me throughout the past two decades that I’ve been alive. The sounds of cute giggles emitting from the television screen grabbed my attention and once again, I focused on it. This time, my bre

    Sofia’s pov The weeks flew by faster than i could keep up with.Healing was slower than I anticipated, and I hated almost every second of it, if I was being honest, but that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t willingly take another bullet for Luca if I could, because I will. Luca had gotten extremely displeased when I offhandedly said those same words to him, and he made me promise to never, ever do that again.I stayed in the hospital for months, because Luca wanted me to be completely healed before getting discharged. The flowers that got sent to me by every well wishers had gotten thrown out more than three times because at a point, they all began to rot.A little gathering was thrown in celebration of my release from the hospital. Everybody was there waiting in the house as entered the house, from Kayla and her husband, Travis, to Armani and his girlfriend, Nala, to James and his fiancée, Blair, to Angelo. It was relieving to finally be home and be surrounded by so much love right now ma

    Sofia’s pov ‘Was this how it feels to float?’I asked myself over and over again, the more time I spent in that same unending loophole. It felt like I was stuck in a fluffy space, but instead of sinking, I remained afloat.Muffled voice could be heard coming from multiple sides at once but I couldn’t make any word out, neither could I tell each voice apart from the other.I limbs literally felt nonexistent because I couldn’t wait use of them no matter how much I tried. It’s almost weird how it’s pitch dark in this fluffy space, preventing me from making anything out.Or perhaps, I was the one who had my eyes closed throughout, I realized when I discovered that I could feel my eyelids twitch a little. I tried to get my eyes open after that, but ended up giving up after trying over and over again to no avail. I drifted straight into an unconscious state after that.When I came to once again, I felt warm fingers around mine. The fingers felt familiar in a way, and with everyth

    Sofia’s pov The scream that left my mouth this time was completely silent as I watched as the kneeling man who was apparently working with Ryan, fell to the ground face first after being shot by Ryan. That sent a more terrified feeling down my spine, because not only was Ryan crazy, he was clearly also heartless as hell. Seeing how he could effortless kill off his own partner made it more obvious that it wouldn’t be hard for him to kill me if he wants to, and that he wasn’t just bluffing by threatening to shoot me.“Fuck, man, you really are a freak. Your own partner?” Angelo mused with an unimpressed look on his face. Luca snorted and leveled Ryan with a look. “That’s not something a Ricci would do, you know?”“Well it’s a good thing I’m not a fucking one, okay? And now that I’ve killed my partner myself, you clearly don’t have anything to threaten me with, I have nothing to lose in this situation unlike the rest of you.” Ryan responded haughtily, sneering as he tugged on my hair.
