Luca’s pov “How much is it?”“It’s two fifty thousand dollars, sir.” The man responded, head tilting forward as he responded. I regarded the piece of bracelet once again, picking it off the soft pillow it’s currently laid in and taking another close look at it.I had left the office about thirty minutes ago, but had decided to make a quick stop here, in order to get something for Sofia. This particular bracelet was the first thing to catch my eyes, and I knew I had to get it for her immediately, because I knew it would look so good on her. It was silver in color, and the stones on the bracelet twinkled in the bright light as I turned it around.“Does it have a matching earring? Or something to match it with.” I asked and the man hastily nodded before saying something to the three attendants standing behind him, who all scrambled around in the next moment. They returned sometime later with a pair of earring and a very thin necklace, and I had them package everything together. I

Luca’s pov My eyes never left Ryan’s face for a second, even as Sofia began to respond.“We took a little walk around the house.” I felt my hand tighten around her waist, as I cocked my head sideways, eyes still scanning Ryan pointedly.“You take walks now with your guard?” I asked as I glanced down at Sofia who nodded once. “That’s cause it’s boring to take a walk on my own, and Ryan keeps me company on those moments.” She explained and even though her explanation made sense, it didn’t stop me from feeling extremely possessive of her.“I accompany Mrs. Ricci on walks whenever she wants in order to make sure she’s protected, like you ordered us to.” Ryan murmured after a few moments and I glanced at him instantly, hating that he was right, because I had indeed asked that they never allow Sofia out of their sight without protection. “Don’t be mad at him, he was only doing what I asked him to, that’s all.” Sofia mumbled and I glanced down at her once again, staring down into

Luca’s pov Reminding myself to have a word with Sofia’s guards tomorrow morning, I kept staring at the shorts Sofia currently has on. She’s currently putting a few things together at the kitchen counter while I sat by the other side of the counter, tapping away on my phone a little, because every now and then, my eyes kept straying towards Sofia.It just couldn’t be helped. It cannot even be questioned, because of how good she always looks. It’s almost like she looked impossibly good right now. The new hairstyle has completely transformed her face, promoting her from ridiculously gorgeous to outrageously, out-of-this-world gorgeous.Which is why, it’s almost impossible for me to not keep staring at her. And as I did, my eyes kept straying to the shorts she had on. It was a really tiny one in the soft color blue which she liked so much. The top she had on was a crop one as well, which made it harder for me to not keep sneaking gleaned at her. Sometime later, I gave up trying

Luca’s pov What is she doing here?The shock was still yet to leave my body even as I made my way into the large, bubbling hall, knowing that everyone’s eyes were currently on me.Two of my three secretaries emerged in front of me, with some sort of lists in their holds. I nodded my head at them and introduced them to Sofia, while noting internally that I really should have done this before, like Sofia had pointed out.“It’s nice to meet you, Mrs. Ricci.” They greeted at the same time and I watched as Sofia smiled at them, while returning their respect politely. I scanned the list which they had to run through me before carrying out, and I put my signature in the required spot before handing it back to them.“You don’t need to overwork yourselves today.” I found myself murmuring before they could leave my presence and they stiffened for a moment.“Really, boss?” One of the two young men asked and I gave a firm nod of my head. “Yes, you don’t. You can relax yourselves and en

Sofia’s pov My birthday is in two weeks.In two weeks time, my birthday would finally be here, and I genuinely couldn’t wait. I’ve been looking forward to it for months, and even though I hadn’t felt excited about it throughout the few weeks Luca and I haven’t been in good times. But, now that we’re back to how we once used to be, I was back to being extremely excited about it.I really couldn’t wait for it to finally be here.Luca had said he’d finally get to go all the way with me on my birthday, and even though we haven’t talked about it yet since things became good between us once again, from the look of things between us so far, I was very positive that the offer was still very much on.And that, was the actual reason why I couldn’t wait.As I sifted through the dozen books I have, my mind went back to the thought of Luca going all caveman on me after coming in and catching Ryan and I together.At that moment, I had instantly said a silent prayer to the heavens becaus

Sofia’s pov Aria gave up the ghost at 12:01a.m, on a Wednesday morning. I never really knew Aria, except the fact that she’s related to Luca and grew up with him, along with him promising to introduce us to one another once she gets out of the hospital. And even though I never knew what she looked like, it never stopped me from getting a little excited at the thought of her finally getting out of the hospital, even though I had no idea as to why she was in the hospital in the first place.Luca never liked to talk much about things related to his family, and I refrained from bringing anything relating to that most of the time.And now; this morning, when Luca and I had been preparing for bed, he had gotten a call which then relayed the news to him that Aria had given up the ghost. “Are you okay?” I asked, reaching for Luca’s hand and cradling it in mine. After the news had come in, Luca had gone rigid in an instant, which had alerted me in an instant that something bad had

James’ pov Never have I been this devastated, like I currently am. The fact that I hadn’t seen this coming, made it hurt so much.Along with the fact that I had been completely distracted by Blair’s presence in my life to actually remember that Aria was still at the hospital, in the damn coma. Only for me to get a call from Luca minutes ago that she was dead.Apparently she had died last night, but Luca had decided to wait until morning before informing me. Knowing my entire day was already ruined, I didn’t bother to dress up and instead got dressed in a pair of shorts, and then I made my way into the basement in my house, where a well stocked gym was located. Although I avoided all other things and headed for the boxing bag, boxing at it hard and fast, while trying to get my thoughts under control at once.Two hours later and I was still feeling very much furious. So many things were going up in my head at once, from pain, to regret, and then guilt.Pain, because Aria was su

James’ pov “Fuck!” I cursed once again, rolling out of the bed. I had no idea I had awoken Blair up that way until I glanced down at her to see her awake, blinking up at me.After the very long and much needed hug we exchanged last night, she didn’t ask me anything, which I had liked so much because I hadn’t felt like talking about it at all. But, she had comforted me thoroughly, promising me that she was here for me, and it was as if that was all that I needed to hear, because after those words, the uncoordinated mess in my head all came to a standstill.After we both exited the basement, she forced me into taking a shower while she microwaved the food, and even though I had little to no appetite, I still got more things in my stomach than I had done since the morning I had been informed of Aria’s death.When I got into her bedroom with her last night, she didn’t question it or send me pot, instead, she had tugged me into the bed with her, which was all the encouragement I neede

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.
