Sofia’s POV “Oh, that.” He muttered in a low voice before reaching forward and gripping my throat with his hand, and I swallowed emptily when he started to tug my head backwards even more, with our gazes still locked on each other’s.“Don’t worry about that, alright? I’m sure they’re no longer there.” He reassured me almost immediately and I blinked once before starting to speak.“Are you sure?” I asked after a couple of seconds. “Positive.” He paused and tugged me backwards even more until our lips were almost touching.“And even if they are, they’d know that you’re married and that this is perfectly normal so I’m sure they wouldn’t mind or be surprised.” He reassured me and my eyes still managed to widen as his words sank into my head.“Oh…” I started to say but Luca jerked me forward a little until my lips were pressed against his, and then he proceeded to take my lips in a really deep kiss that made my toes curl. He pressed his tongue into my mouth and I felt myself start to tre
Sofia’s POV I clinged onto him as he made his way up the stairs and into the bedroom, with my head resting on his shoulder and my arms loosely wrapped around him when he pushed the door closed. I was still feeling really sated and wasn’t feeling like I wanted to orgasm anymore because of how intense the one I had had downstairs had felt. A brief thought of the fact that Matilda, being how nosey she was, might have had her ear pressed against the other side of the door leading into the dining room, throughout the time I had felt being teased by Luca. I shook my head a little as I willed that thought out of my head as I started to convince myself that like Luca had said to me, that it was perfectly normal since Luca and I were married… although it didn’t make it feel any less embarrassing for me.I huffed out a small whine and tightened my hold around Luca when he tried to place me on my feet, and the small fond chuckle that vibrated out of him in the next second made my inside s
Sofia’s POV “Good, because you belong to me and only me.” He continued to speak and the hand which had previously been stroking through my hair moved around to grip the back of my throat in a grip firm enough to make goosebumps break out on my bare skin, as a shudder ran down my spine. He pulled me closer to him until only a breath of space was separating us, right before he started to speak once again.“Now, you’re going to take your spankings like a good girl, won’t you?” He asked in a low voice and I whimpered a little, squirming around on his thighs as I began to slowly nod my head.He remained silent and lowered his eyes to my lips, I thought he was going to kiss me and take complete control of me, a part of me had wanted that to happen so bad in the next second, but he completely surprised me my deftly moving me around and flipping me over that I was splayed out on his thighs in a fleeting second, with my legs on one part of the bed, and my head and chest on the other side
Luca’s POV “You were saying?” His voice was low and almost sensual as it washed over me, making my already heightened senses get even more sensitive to all what was happening around me in the next moment.“Uh, uh…” I stuttered out and trailed off when he cupped that particular butt cheek which he had sparked some moments ago in a really really firm grip, and he started to knead the cheek in his large palm really slowly in a way that made me shudder against him, unconsciously lifting off his thighs to try to push into his touch without thinking.“What are you doing?” He asked almost immediately, his voice startling me into going still in the next moment as I began to puff out deep breaths, the force in which I used to hold myself still against him was making my body tremble against him, coupled with how his touch on my butt cheek was making my whole body spark in different spots all at once.“Uh, nothing.” I whispered as I puffed out a slow breath. I started to drop my head in
Sofia’s POV “You forgot to count the second one, but I’m going to let it slip.” He began to speak in a low voice as his hands started to knead my ass cheeks in a really firm way, making my breath hitch in my throat over and over again. I didn’t even realized that I hadn’t counted the second one, I thought as a shiver slide down my body when he suddenly squeezed my ass cheeks, the slightly sore skin of my butt brushed against his palm in such a way that made my insides tighten and swoop with heat and something I’d be able to identify as nothing but need.“I’m sorry.” I whispered in a voice that broke when he decided to squeeze on my ass cheeks once again.“Of course you are. I’d have to start over from the beginning if you forget to count at a point again, so make sure to pay complete attention to what's happening from now on.” He admonished me and I felt myself start to tremble when one of his fingers ghosted over my core in a really feather light way, barely brushing over my cl
Sofia’s POV “You need to take a shower, bunny.” He started to say really slowly as he wrapped his arms firmly around me in the next second. I began to shake my head as I sank into his hold, literally melting against him and clutching harder on his shirt.I felt one of his hands move towards my hair and he started to caress my hair really slowly, making the sleep that was clinging to my brain get even more intense as the seconds slowly rolled past.“You did so good for me tonight, bunny.” His voice started to echo around me and I felt myself sterimg to hum a little as I pressed against him even more, feelimg my chest expand even more at the thought that I had indeed done well for him tonight got confirmed by him moments ago.“And I own you, do you understand? He asked and I huffed out a deep breath and nodded my head against his chest, feeling my stomach start to tighten up at those words. I didn’t expect him to wrap his hand at the nape of my head and tug my head off his chest
Sofia’s POV “Shh. You’re going to try to stand on your own for me, won’t you?” He continued and I huffed out a small breath before starting to nod my head. I didn’t want to take a shower but that doesn’t mean I wasn’t going to try to hold myself up for him like he had asked. I might be tired but I was still going to try to please him, because I was a good girl.“That’s a good bunny.” He murmured as he started to stroke my hair. After a few seconds, I felt him start to carefully lower me to the ground. My head felt like it was spinning, my limbs felt really heavy and I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to even keep my head high up, or me able to hold myself up like he had asked me to – but I was going to try to do just that though.“Try to hold yourself up for me, alright? I want to go get some towels and other supplies.” He murmured and I forced my eyes open and gave a small nod of my head. My back was pressed against a well, it couldn’t be that hard for me to be able to remain this wa
Sofia’s POV I squirmed a little as I started to yawn, just as the hand around my waist tightened a little and jerk me a little, making me be pressed more into a very hard, warm chest. I slowly blinked my eyes open and tried to stifle another yawn when it started to rise once again.As soon as I blinked my eyes open, I realized that it was already early morning, but I was still feeling a little bit sleepy. What was very much unusual for me was the tact that Luca was still in bed with me, still holding me firmly against him– when he was supposed to be at the office at the moment, because it was a weekday and not the weekend. Evening during the weekends, it was still very rare for me to wake up to Luca right beside me, it was either he got up way earlier than myself to go gym, or to go get a cup of coffee before going to bury himself in work inside his office, it was still somehow unusual for me to wake up to him beside me.I knew very well that the right thing which I was suppos
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.
