Luca’s POV I said to him with a jerk of my head and I watched as he remained still at first, right before he nodded his head after a fleeting second.“I’ll be turning in for now, I hope you don’t mind.” Armani’s voice was soft and a little bit lower than usual as he spoke, while glancing down at Sofia who was looking up at him and I watched as Sofia started to shake her head almost immediately.“Ah, no no… I do not mind, I don’t. You’re probably really stressed at the moment from the flight and the ride back from the airport, so it’s very understandable that you’re heading out at the moment, and there’s a lot of time for us to hang out tomorrow as well.” Sofia finally paused and breathed out a slow breath, and I noticed the small smile that started to bloom on Armani’s face the next moment.“Yeah, we can totally hang out together tomorrow, I’ll be looking forward to it.” Armani finally responded with a small lift of his shoulders.“I’ll be looking forward to it too.” Sofia echoed
Luca’s POV “Oh, they’re around, they’re all safe. I just didn’t add any of your old stuff here because I didn’t know if you are still attached to those things the way you used to be back then.” I started to speak with a small sigh slipping out of my mouth.“Oh, really? Wow, that’s so cool.” He breathed out in the next moment.“Yup, it’s still here.” I said once again.“Can I go through them tomorrow?” Ge asked as he started to make his way towards me and I nodded my head with a small chuckle.“Of course, of course you can. They’re your stuff after all.” I said to him in the next moment.“You’re the best, Luca.” Armani said softly as soon as he was standing before me, with a little bit of space between us and I nodded my head at him with a small lift of my shoulders.“I really am?” I asked after a few seconds and watched as he huffed out a small breath.“Yeah, you are. You’re the very best and I’m so glad I have you as a brother.” He finally continued.I felt a small smile start
Luca’s POV “I didn’t know…” I started to say at first but ended up trailing off as soon as I noticed that Armani’s eyes had started to water. I closed the distance between us and took him into my arms once again, and like expected, it started to break my heart as soon as I felt him start to quietly sob against me.“I’m so sorry, Armani.” I started to whisper as I brushed my fingers through the material of his shirt which he currently had on. I held him close against me, at this point, I was already somehow in sync with his body size and height in my arms due to how much we’ve been in this same kind of position countless times today. It was like both our bodies and soul were trying to make up for lost times bt akways seeking each other out this way. At this point, I wasn’t sure I could be able to count the amount of times I’ve taken him into my arms in a firm embrace since the moment I’ve set my eyes on him back at the airport, this late evening.“I’m so sorry, so so sorry.” I started
Luca’s POV “That was all a misunderstanding.” Armani groaned out while shooting me a narrowed gaze at me, feeling a little bit attacked, because that was obvious what all what I had previously said I had meant – but then, I was referring to myself as well and not just to him.I rolled my eyes a little in the next moment and puffed out a deep breath, and then I started to speak as soon as my eye was back to focusing on him.“Damn, you grew up to be one hot motherfucker.” I stated as I glanced at him intently, noting how his bulging bicep looked right here with no piece of material covering it from an open view. He had obviously been spending a whole lot of time at the gym, almost like the way I do, which was definitely why he was able to achieve this kind of body for himself.“Aish, stop saying that, it isn’t true.” Armani started to say in the next moment as he grinned a little and turned away from me after a few moments. His back was also ripped as fuck. It wasn’t as ripped as
Luca’s POV A grin broke out on her face in the next instant as she started to nod her head. “Yeah, I do.” She responded, voice quiet and warm, like silky lace brushing against my fingertips. I placed my palms on her thighs and slid it upwards, lightly trailing my fingertips over her warm skin until I was resting both hands on her hips. I lowered my gaze and took in how perfect she looked in my arms right now, sitting right here on my lap and looking this good.She was mine, all mine.I slid one of my hands off her hips, and moved it upwards until I was lightly skimming my fingers against the back of her throat, taking in how she jolted a little and leaned into my touch instantly, as a tiny breath slipped past her lips. Her hands which had been hanging loosely around my shoulders were now gripping on the material of my shirt in a firm grip.I gripped the back of her throat firmly after a few seconds, holding her against me with my other hand which was still around her hip, as sh
Luca’s POV I bit at the curve of her hip through the material of her gown and I felt her jerk against me, and in the next second, her other hand which was free had come around to hook around my shoulder.I glanced up at her and grinned a little, watching how color washed over her face, right before she averted her gaze from mine, pout slowly sliding back into place against her lips.“Are you mad at me, bunny?” I asked in a low voice as I leaned forward and pressed a small kiss at the lower part of my stomach. “I don’t know.” She responded after a few seconds, and she still wouldn’t look at me. I breathed out a low chuckle as I let go of her wrist and wrapped my now free hand around her waist to join my other hand there, and then I pulled her closer against me.“You don’t?” I asked as I stared up at her, with my chin resting against her stomach. She felt so good against me this way, and it felt so casual and comfortable for me like this, with my head being pillowed by her sma
Luca’s POV Sofia blinked up at me and I watched as she swallowed emptily before cracking a small grin that almost looked sly. It was honestly so unexpected, as were her next words.“I felt like you were about to kiss me?” She drawled. Her response was a far cry from what I was used to, it was so out of place for the shyness and timidness I was already used to with her— but it wasn’t out of place in a bad way though.I couldn’t help it, a grin tugged at the corners of my lips as I queried a brow at her.“You’re not wrong, bunny.” I mused. She moved a little and the feeling of her soft body rubbing against my hard body, made my blood run hot. She lifted her face even higher and I got distracted by how stunning she was. Her beauty just never cease to take my breath away. It was so out of this world, and despite how much I’ve stared at her face since the moment I had lifted her veil on our wedding day, till this very day.It sometimes makes me wonder just how I was lucky enough to h
Luca’s POV “You won’t?” She asked, voice filled with an emotion I’d term as shocked or surprise.I nodded my head at her in confirmation. “That’s right, stunning. I won’t.”She blinked at that. “Why? You love kissing me.” She pouted.I laughed at her response. “That is very much correct, bunny. I do love kissing you so much.” I paused as I trailed my free hand down her sides, “In fact, I want to kiss you so bad right now.”Her mouth fell open a little at that. “Then kiss me.” She mumbled, but I shook my head. “Not for now, bunny.”“Why?” She huffed out and I hummed as I wrapped my hand around her waist to pull her against me even more.“Because, that will be part of your reward tonight, if you’re a good girl.”Her facial expression morphed into different shades in a few seconds before finally settling on confusion. “But, I’m always a good girl, you said so yourself.”I hummed in response. “That’s true. But tonight is going to be quite different, because I’m going to make you be
