MARRIED TO THE MAFIA Chapter Twenty Six
Lila. I feel the warmth of Luca’s lips on mine, and for a moment, everything melts away. His kiss is soft, hesitant, but there’s something there something I didn’t expect. My heart starts racing, and just as I’m about to sink deeper into the feeling, he pulls back abruptly. Confusion floods over me, and I blink, trying to make sense of what just happened. My lips still tingle with the memory of his touch. I knew he felt the same exact way I was feeling, our chemistry was undeniable, so why did he pull back and why was he looking at me like that. Like I had something wrong. “What’s wrong?” I ask, my voice shaky, unsure if I’m even speaking clearly. I could tell something was wrong I just had no clue what. He looks at me, his eyes avoiding mine for a moment before meeting my gaze with something like guilt in them. “We can’t,” he says quietly, his words hanging between us like a weight. I expected atleast more than two words, but he went back to pacing around the room like that was

Lila. It has been a few hours since I last spoke with Luca, I had decided to give him some space to process everything that was going on. But he also needed to eat something since he was still taking medication. I quickly fixed him a plate of some food and put it on a tray with some water and headed up to his room. I knew he was not going to get out of that room so I did not even bother calling him to come down. Once at his door, I could hear some of soft music coming from his room, I knock lightly on his door, holding the tray full of food in my hands, hoping it will help ease whatever storm was brewing inside of him. I just wanted to do something for him, anything, to make him feel better.“Luca?” I call softly as I push the door open. He is sitting by the window, staring out into the dark. It’s like he is miles away, even though he is right in front of me. I hesitate for a moment, but then walk in, setting the food down on the bedside table. "I brought you something to eat...

Vanessa.I had tried to get in touch with Luca but his phone was off or busy or went straight to voicemail and it was bugging me. In the three years we had been together, he never even once sent me to voice mail and no matter what was going on in our personal lives, we always talked to each other which is why this was bugging me so much and it had Lila written all over it. Normally I wouldn’t be worried by a girl like Lila, but I could tell she was different, she was not a city girl like the ones Luca was used to and that's what scared me the most. "I have to ran an errand for a few hours, cancel all my meetings and if my husband calls tell him I am at my wax appointment." I said to my personal assistant as I picked up my bag. "Do you need me to organize for a driver?" "No, I will just drive myself, I need to clear my mind anyways." In a few minutes I was pulling up to Luca's house."Is he in?" I asked one of the security men, as I got out of the car while tossing him the car ke

Luca.I knew my father was lying, having worked in my line of work for so long, it was so easy for me to tell when someone was lying. "Why are you protecting her?" I finally asked after a moment of silence, "don't you think I deserve to know if she is the one that saved my life?" "What does it matter son? Why can't you leave it alone, you are supposed to be taking it easy, resting not stressing yourself." "Where is she?" "I don't know Luca." "You know it's only a matter of time before the truth comes out, I will use whatever resources I have to find out the truth." "She just wanted to help Luca, that's all" he finally said when I got up. I sat back down looking at him"So she is the one that gave me a kidney?" I asked feeling my blood boiling with anger. "Yes, she was the quickest solution." "How did she even know I was sick, you said you haven't heard from her since she left." "I haven't, but a few years back had someone look into her, just to make sure she was okay. 8 neve

Luca. Immediately Lila left my room, I sat back down completely confused by the information she had just given me. I wanted to run after her and tell her is we can work together on figuring the connection between our parents but I couldn't. I had become too much dependent on her and she was getting too close too soon for my own liking. I needed to take a step back from her in general and figure out my emotions and feelings towards her. I picked up my phone and immediately dialled my private investigator's number. Luckily he picked up on the first ring.I gave him all the instructions he needed before I hang up. I had a bad feeling about this. Over the years I had always imagined what I would say to my mother if I ever saw again. At some point I realized I might never see her again, ever so I erased all the memories I had of her. I came into terms that she will never come back, and I was okay with it. But why did I have this scary feeling when I told Paul my private investigator

Lila. I was past confused, everyone was keeping secrets from me and none of it was making sense to me anymore. I knew exactly who would give me the answers I needed and I was not going to play dumb anymore. On the way back to the house I took a cab, I was too agitated to walk back there. The house was quiet, I knew exactly where I would find him. I storm into Luca’s bedroom, my mind racing with a thousand questions. The tension between us could be felt across the room. Luca appeared from the bathrooms, white towel around his torso, his bare chest out dripping wet. He was in the shower when I stormed in. I immediately second guessed my choice to storm into his room without knocking. He just looked at me, no expression in his face at all, he picked up an extra towel and started drying his hair in silence as if giving me time to say what brought me into his room. I didn’t care about the awkwardness, didn’t care that Luca was probably just as confused as I was. I needed answers. A

Lila.All I could think about all morning was the fact that Luca had someone killed. I knew his world was dangerous, that he was dangerous but I never really thought about it deeply, a part of me wanted to live in oblivious, and it was working until I overheard the conversation I was not supposed to do. I dialled my phone over a million times, thinking maybe I should tell the police, but Luca's family owned the police, they owned literally everything, there was nothing that money could not buy. They were used to getting away with stuff like this. But how was I supposed to ever look at him the same way knowing what I knew. Guilt was eating me up and I had no one I could talk to. My mother was my friend, and we were not in good terms. But maybe she was right, marrying into this family was dangerous, I had to go talk to her and apologize. From Luca's house to the hospital was only a few minutes walk. So I just sneaked out and decided to walk to help clear my mind. I walked through

Luca.I sat in total for a few more minutes, taking in everything that had just happened. The last thing I wanted was for Lila to see this part of my world. She was so innocent, so naïve, but my world was dark and dangerous, Vanessa understood that and loved me because of it. But Lila was different and I was beginning to like her for that, because she was so out of touch with my world, she represented the world I would have wanted to be in if I wasn't raised the way I was. I watched her through my window as she did her swimming laps. She was perfect, even when she wasn't trying to. We had grown closer the past few weeks, she had known a part of me that I never let anyone know, but with her, it was like I didn't have to pretend to be someone I am not. Which is why I could not lose her. I looked at my phone, I had over ten missed calls from Vanessa and some text messages from her and my father too. It was time I had a conversation with Vanessa. Just like Lila, Vanessa had her own r

Lila. It had been a few days since I moved into Luca’s house and since he was discharged from the hospital. I was still yet get used to the house itself. I always imagined what the rich and luxurious lived like, but I never imagined it would be this luxurious. It was like living in a resort, waking up every day with the best view in the world. I wanted to explore every part of the house in due time or atleast before my time was up. I had thought Luca was still sleeping and wanted to go down for a swim when I heard his voice from his home office, I slowly tiptoed down the hall to where his office was located. I wasn’t supposed to be snooping around. I knew that. But Luca had been so quiet ever since he got out of the hospital, and I hated seeing him like that. I couldn’t help it. I had to know what was going on.I had no clue what he was thinking or where his mind was at. I wanted to atleast know if he was in contact with Vanessa, if she was still getting a divorce, but Luca bare

Chapter One
Chapter One. The scandal Luca. The notifications on my phone were going crazy, forcing me to wake up and actually pick up my phone. I had over ten missed calls from my father. What on earth was going on? He had sent me a link which I immediately clicked on.'MAFIA BOSS LUCA DELUCA SPOTTED LEAVING HOTEL WITH A FAMOUS POLITICIAN' S WIFE'For a second, I thought I was reading wrong when the headline popped up on my phone. I quickly scrolled through different blogs and my face was all over the blogs. "Have you looked at your phone today?" my friend Tony said walking into my room with his iPad in his hand. Tony was my personal advisor and best friend, he was the one persona that knew all my secrets, the good and the bad. Our relationship dated way back to college which is where we met, freshman year. I threw my phone at him, as I quickly got up and started dressing up. "This is bad Luca, especially with us in the middle of this acquisition." "I know, I will take care of it." "How...
