Betrothed To The Mafia Lord Chapter 284
Luca’s POV “Uh wow, you kept these all these while…” ArmanI started to speak really quietly, shock and awe tingling the edge of his voice and I allowed my eyes to slide close for a few seconds. “Yeah, I did.” I whispered in response after a few moments.“Why? They were not even that good, and I remember father wanting to throw them out one morning when he caught me drawing instead of working out my aiming skills– but you took them and hid them somewhere safe, and… and, I kind of forgot about it.” I watched as he lifted one of his hands to graze the painting of a dog who had a ball inside of his mouth, I could remember him telling me about how he wanted a dog so bad, but couldn’t get one because father hated dogs so much and felt like it was going to make Armani get more soft.“Because it reminded me of you so much, that was why I put them all up. You’ve always wanted to put them up while you were drawing and painting them, after all.” I said to him and breathed out a small laugh

Luca’s POV I climbed up the stairs and was in front of the bedroom door after a few minutes, and I paused before the door for a few seconds and used that time to drag in a deep breath into my lungs, and then I let it out really slowly. I repeated the motion a few times until I could feel the urgency that had gotten intense on my way upstairs start to slowly dwindle away. I puffed out a small breath and pushed my fingers into my hair, panting a little at the next moment. Once I was sure that I wasn’t feeling driven by an intense urgency, I lifted my hand and placed it on the door Knob, and then I turned it and pushed the door open. I made my way into the room and pushed the door close behind me instantly, noticing that the lights were turned on to the brightest ones in here, which was very rare. It was unusual because I didn’t see the use of those bright lights most times and tend to be quite contented with the dim and led ones… but I just know that Sofia had turned these ones on

Luca’s POV “I thought you were going to kiss me.” She finally admitted, huffing out a small breath that I find really endearing. I breathed out a small laugh after a moment, as I lifted my other hand off her butt to cup one side of her face, and she leaned into my touch instantly, blinking up at me.“I was. But you said you wanted to go meet my brother downstairs, and so I decided to stop…” She didn’t let me finish before she was cutting into what I was saying. “B-but, I didn’t mean it.” She admitted with a small pout and I grinned a little before starting to roll my eyes, of course when didn’t mean it, I knew that on my own just fine, but I had just felt like torturing her a little.“Can you jump up and wrap your legs around me?” I asked after a second, and I noticed as her eyes widened excitedly as she started to nod her head.“Uh-un, I can.”She made to do just that after some time and I wrapped my arms firmly around her hips, holding her firmly against me and staring up into he

Luca’s POV “Do you think he’s going to like me?” Sofia asked in a small voice as soon as I glanced down at her. We were currently both making our way down the stairs and she had started to tug on my hand unt I had glanced down at her, and then she had asked me what question. It was almost funny to just think about it because I could remember Armani being worried about this same thing as well, hours ago. I breathed out a small breath and started to speak.“Of course, bunny. He’s going to like you a whole lot.” I said to her after a few moments had passed and I hummed a little. She finally stopped chewing at the insides of her cheeks as she made to speak.“Really? You think so?” She asked tentatively, her hand still gripping mine tightly. I knew without having to think about it that she was really nervous at this very moment. I’d have told her about the fact that Armani had also been nervous about this same thing, but then I didn’t want to do that because I wanted to two of them

Luca’s POV But now… it was feeling like I was fulfilled, like I was content and satisfied with this level of happiness, like it was filled up and I couldn’t want any more. I had a wife, a beautiful and loving one who was always making me happy without even trying, who was the best and most beautiful thing that had happened to me. And now, my younger brother is back home, healthy and alive, and I couldn’t be any happier and content as it is.“You’re smiling.” I turned my head around to glance at Armani with raised eyebrows after he had spoken those three words a fleeting moment ago.“I am?” I mused and watched as he rolled his eyes a little before nodding his head a little.“Yeah, you are.” He muttered in response. I huffed out a small breath and lifted up one of my hands to use to Pat the sides of my face.“Oh, I didn’t even realize.” I finally muttered.“It’s because of your wife, right? You’ve been looking more relaxed after you’ve gone to her for long hours to do only what G

Luca’s POV Armani blurted out of the blue and I watched as Sofia bursted into a little fit of laughter, as she lifted one of her hands up to shield her mouth. I sneaked a glance at Armani to see him still staring down at Sofia, with a smile still spread out on his face.“Uh, thank you.” Sofia finally responded, still smiling a little with a little bit of color staining her cheeks. “I’m Sofia.” Sofia started to speak after a couple of moments, taking the lead once again, and I felt something that felt so much like pride start to tingle and expand in the middle of my chest as I watched as she offered her hand to Armani who had finally managed to shake himself a little to be able to get more words out or himself.“Forgive my manners, My name’s Armani.” He finally started to speak as he accepted Sofia’s hand into his bigger one, and before I could blink, he was moving forward and closing the distance between them to take her into his arms. I watched as Sofia went into his embrace w

Luca’s POV “Uh, no. No, I don’t” She finally responded in a small voice, after a few more seconds had passed. She knew what exactly it was that I wanted, knew that I needed her to respond to me vocally, but had purposely refused to not do that – until I had called out her name the way I did, some moments ago.Someone’s definitely getting a settling spanking tonight, I thought silently to myself as I hummed a little, giving her a pointed look for a few seconds, right before I turned around and started to head towards the entrance of the sitting room, and not before I slipped a glance at Armani who was staring down at his thighs, obviously trying to make himself as small as possible, to make him become as invisible as ever– as soon as he had realized the whole thing that had been happening between the both of us.I made my way out of the sitting room, making my way through the hallway and around the part that led into the kitchen. I headed straight into the walk-in freezer, fishing

Luca’s POV “Thank you, Sarah.” Armani said to Sarah with a warm smile playing across his lips as soon as Sarah set his plate before him, a few moments ago. Sarah smoke back at him instantly and whispered something to him and after caffe more seconds, she was heading out of the dining room and closing the door behind her. Sofia was sitting at my right hand side and Armani was sitting directly before her, at the other side of the table, the exact spot where James had sat in, some days ago when he had come over to do something with me and had decided to stay back for dinner.We all started to eat after a few moments and my eyes kept straying back to Sofia every few minutes, but nothing seemed to be off around her, she seemed to be doing just fine and she was also eating her food just fine. There wasn’t a lot of conversation going around the three of us who were currently sitting around the table, which was pretty fine by me.The quiet was also very good, it made more room in my head

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.
