Betrothed To The Mafia Lord Chapter 44
Sofia’s POV “Can you tell me a little about Mexico?” I said to Ryan after a few minutes and he glanced up from my phone that he was currently helping me reset some things on the– a phone which I had no idea was going to be that complex to operate.It was past two p.m in the afternoon and I had asked him this afternoon if he could help me with a few things on my phone. He had agreed immediately, sinking into the same couch I was sitting in after I had patted it on invitation, when he had wanted to remain standing while operating the phone.He had disagreed at first, and tried to argue but ended up giving in, he was sitting almost too tensely on the tip of the couch, making me wonder about this whole thing between them and Luca.Speaking of Luca, I could already feel my cheeks start to heat up, and my mouth dry up as I remembered all too vividly how he had raked his intense grey eyes over my whole body, but still not touching me.It had felt like he was brushing his finger over my

Sofia’s POV I puffed out a quiet breath of air as I slowly and carefully massaged my injured arm with an ointment given to me at the hospital. The pain wasn’t as intense as it was on the first and second day after I had sustained the injury, but nevertheless, it still sent me a little jolt of pain through the veins around the spot where my bone had shifted. I dug my index finger into the ointment and smeared the wetness which had a mild smell that reminded me of a certain Vaseline which I had made use of a lot while growing up.I massaged the injury some more until the whole part of my arm was glistening and shining due to the almost slippery substance of the ointment. I lifted my arm up and stared at the spot below my elbow, it didn’t look swollen the way it did on the first, second and even third day, which I was extremely grateful for. I tried stretching the arm out and went a couple of milie before a sharp jolt of pain flew into the socket connecting my arm to the sockets of

Sofia’s POV The next day came all too quickly and again, I had to go to school without Angelo because the doctor had ordered him to stay off school and anything that involved moving his neck around and moving his arm around, for the next one to two weeks. Because I had left for school the next day, I had taken care of him as best as I could that morning before the time for me to leave for school reached.mI knew our house help was going to see to his needs until I get back from him, but I didn’t know how she was going to see to him, if she was going to be too fast with him instead of being patient with him, if she was going to carefully see to his injury without jolting him unnecessarily.But there was almost nothing I could do because I couldn’t stay home without going to school, father wouldn’t have that, no matter what my reason was. The best I could do was to wake up earlier so I could see to him before leaving for school, which I did.I only had a few friends in school and th

Sofia’s POV I stared at the images playing on the television in the sitting room and felt my cheeks start to heat up as the girl showing in the huge screen on the wall danced in really provocative way against a man who was standing behind her. The song playing on the television sounded like a pop genre but I couldn’t be so sure because I haven’t been able to listen to a lot of music throughout my life.The girl still showing on the screen– who was a redhead, bent downwards and placed her hands which were in a black, transparent gloves, against her bare knees before she started moving vigorously against the man who had a strong grip on her waist.My cheeks were on fire and my stomach was tightening up as I watched the girl move against the man standing behind her, pressing her crotch against his in such a tight way, I started to wonder if she wasn’t hurting him with how hard her butt was moving against him.I glanced down at my fingers on my tights and wiggled the fingers around a l

Luca’s POV I placed Aria carefully into the back seat of my car before sliding in and settling in carefully beside her. Her head wobbled around the seat uncontrollably and I held her against my side as the driver started the car and started to pull out of the spot it was packed in, into the busy streets once again.Once the car was moving at a steady pace again, I loosened my arms from around Aria’s body and placed her until she was leaning the side of the door with her head leaning backwards against the headrest, to avoid it from hitting the window of the car incase it jolts up unexpectedly again like it has been doing.Aria mumbled something incoherent and I leaned towards the front of where I was sitting and clicked on a black button, and a dark glass slid up immediately, demarcating the back side of the car from the front and giving me much needed privacy.Showing any kind of affection before my guards wasn’t something I was used to, and I didn’t want them to start thinking I wa

Luca’s POV “Do not panic. It is going to be successful.” The doctor said as he stood up and placed his white coat back on his shoulder before stretching his hand out to me once again.“I am not panicking.” I said to him with a scowl before throwing a glare at his outstretched hand until he dropped it.“Do whatever you can to ensure it ends up successful.” I said to him and he nodded his head as he moved away from me towards the far end of the room where a couple of files sat on a shelf. I watched as he counted the files slowly before pulling out a certain one and picking out a paper out of it and returning the file back to its proper place.He got back to his seat and sat on it before writing out the form and filling it out until it got to the end of the form.“Sign here, please.” He said as he pushed the form towards me and stretched out a pen to me. I accepted it and stared down at the form, my eyes quickint skimming over the wordings and slightly widening the moment I realized

Luca’s POV I sighted Williams just as I lifted my head up from its bent posture as he was just stepping out of the elevator and glancing around the whole hallways, his eyes lingering on everywhere all at once– probably in search of me.I watched as he finally decided to allow his eyes to travel further down the hallway, which was when he noticed me. Our eyes locked for a fleeting moment when he was looking everywhere at once. He paused in his tracks and dragged his eyes back to mind on recognition and was already starting to make his way towards me immediately, down the hallway.He paused a few feet away from me and stared down at me– because I was still sitting in the chair I had decided to sit in while waiting for Aria to be done with her surgery. He was in a plaid shirt and a dark pair of jeans, appearing way more casual than I’d ever imagine him to ever pull off.“Hello Luca.” He said after a little while and I nodded my head once at him before uttering a quiet, “Williams.”

Luca’s POV My eyes locked with Sofia’s the very second after I had inserted my head in through the doorway and I watched as her widened a little in shock. The only thing I allowed my eyes to notice was the way her hair framed her face and how the white skirt she had on this morning had ridden upwards on the couch, revealing more skin than it had done this morning.I turned around and exited the doorway, breaking eye contact with her immediately and making my way deeper into the house while trying not to fall on my face due to how tired and drained out I was feeling.I climbed up the stairs with my hands gripping unto the banister of the stair case ever so tightly as I climbed each stair carefully to avoid my eyes from spinning the way it had started to feel like it was about to start spinning, the moment after I have made my way through the house door.I got to the top of the stairs and decided against going into the bedroom Sofia and I shared at the last moment and instead settle

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.
