Chapter 44 Sofia's Pov I was completely lost in a distant memory of my father yelling and that day my mom passed away, my vision was getting blurry and I felt a grip on my shoulder. "Sofia!" Someone shook my shoulders violently and I snapped it seeing the perplexed look on my husband's face, "Let's get you out of here" He said and brought out a gun from his suit, I wasn't shocked that he was carrying that around all these while after all the rumors about him being a mafia don are true. "You are going to make a run for the door on the count of three, now listen to me you run and don't look back until you get to the car" He ordered and I shook my head. "What about you? Come with me please" I pleaded but he took my hand. "At my count, you run okay? Don't worry about it I already sent for Damian and three other of my men are here, I will be fine just go without me I need to know who was behind this attack, they knew we were coming here today" He explained and I was so scared b
Chapter 45 Sofia's Pov I paced around the living room waiting and calling my husband but he didn't pick up, did something happen to him? He told me not to wait but I couldn't help it, I tried calling Damian and he picked up after the second ring. "Yes ma'am?" "Is my husband still with you? I have been trying to reach him but he isn't picking up, did something happen to him?" I panicked. "No, He is on his way home now he just left a few minutes ago" Damian explained and I sighed in relief then I heard footsteps behind me so I veered. There is was looking ruffled and drained with tousled hair and this was the first time I had seen him in a tank top, "Thank you, Damian, he is here already" I said and hung up while he just stood at the door watching me. "I told you not to wait up, are you that stubborn?" He tilted his head and smirked at me, seriously he was going to act like that after we were almost killed. "Did you catch them?" I asked as he walked towards me, "Yes, I h
Chapter 46Sofia's POV I woke up in my bed and I didn't remember how I got there but I think I passed out when Mark played with my clit again and tongue fucked me until I could no longer breathe. One of the best orgasms of my life and I will never forget it, except I was too weak to return the favor and I was exhausted before he could finish with me. I felt embarrassed about my inexperience, it made me look naive and immature. But I intend to fix that I don't mind going to his room without his consent to prove my point, I'm not a child or that young fickle girl he sees me for. I rolled out of the bed to take a shower then I put on jean shorts and a tube top I found from my old clothes before leaving my room. One thing I noticed last night was he held back on me, I might just have to seduce him to give in so he will start looking at me differently. The kids were still asleep and Carl was in their room too playing with Lois' toys, "Look at this cool train, it's freaking expensive!
Chapter 47 Mark's Pov I must have gone overboard after destroying three warehouses the Alabanians owned and destroying the wedding of the Italian capo's son, my message was loud and clear they should fuck with my family and they were wrong to think I had become sloppy since Emily's death. I intend to visit her tomorrow like I always do every month, I have so much to tell her about Sofia. Sometimes I feel like she is there listening whenever I visit her graveside, just like with Sofia our marriage was arranged but we fell in love shortly after. She was fierce and bold, I was drawn to her and I think Sofia is very similar to her. They both had this pure spirit and I feel like a monster compared to them, when Emily died she left a void no one could fill but Sofia came in with her warmth and lit up my dark world. "The shipment will arrive tonight, I will go with Enzo to secure it," Damian said sitting opposite me and I nodded still deep in thought. "Have you found a way to loca
Chapter 48Sofia's Pov I was scrolling through my phone checking for the best colleges I could find, I needed one close to the house so I looked up the ones in town. Mark's car drove into the manor and I watched from the balcony as he got out of the car, he looked angry so I decided not to wave at him but the moment he turned his eyes caught mine and he arched his brows. I awkwardly waved with a small smile but he didn't return my gesture, he just ignored me and headed inside. Did I do something wrong? I asked myself, so I left for the kid's rooms and headed downstairs when I couldn't find them there. It wasn't a surprise that Carl was playing with them when I got downstairs, Mark wasn't in sight and I was starting to consider going to his room to ask what was going on. I didn't see any of the maids and Joey was sleeping in Carl's arms, "Did Mark say anything to you?" I asked my little brother and he shook his head negatively."No he only waved at me and left for his room" He r
Chapter 49 Sofia's Pov We got home and a surprise was waiting for us, Damian was pacing with a pretty lady standing in our living room looking around. "What happened?" Mark asked and let go of my hand he was holding, the lady turned when she heard his voice and I was sure I had seen her somewhere before. "The shipment is gone, I don't know how they got the information about it but it was hijacked and all the goods are gone," Damian said with a sullen expression on his face, whatever they were talking about made my husband angry and his jaw clenched as he walked towards the minibar. He took a bottle of vodka and poured it into a glass cup, after taking a sip he flung the cup on the wall and it shattered into pieces sending shards of glass everywhere and I flinched in shock. "How the hell did this happen?!" He bellowed and I decided it was time to go check up on the kids, but I paused when I saw the lady staring at my husband with hearty eyes. "I swear I checked everything,
Chapter 50Mark's Pov I received a call that one of my warehouses was also attacked all in one night, that wasn't the worst part they left a message for me. I rushed to my room to get dressed and left for my warehouse downtown, I didn't want to bother Sofia with the details it was better she stayed clueless. Emily used to say we are in this together but look at where she ended up all because of me, I don't want the same thing to happen to Sofia even if she is smart and can take care of herself I still needs to protect her. Getting to the warehouse some of my men who received the news had already rushed down there trying to keep the flames under control, I got out of the car and headed inside to have a look at things over there. "Boss" One of them greeted and I spotted Enzo among them, "Did any see anything?" I asked. "No boss, the guards here were killed before we came and many of them were injured, they left this gift box" Enzo handed it over to me and I opened it to find a sin
Chapter 51Sofia's Pov I waited for Mark until midnight and I got worried when I couldn't reach him, I decided to call Damian even if I promised I couldn't exactly sit back when I couldn't find him. I called him sixteen times and it's unlike him not to pick up my call, "Hello Damian? Is Mark okay?" I asked. "Come outside" Mark's voice sounded gravelly and pissed. I was taken aback and wondered why he was picking up Damian's call, will I get into trouble for this? I thought as he hung up without saying anything else. I rushed out of the house and was stunned to see many cars parked in front of our house, and on the other side of the manor, I saw someone standing in front of the building. I never asked him what these buildings are for but I think the security guards and maids stay in those buildings, "Over here!" Someone yelled drawing my attention and I saw Damian waving at me. When did these cars come in and I didn't notice? I was too deep in my thoughts to notice. I looked at
Chapter 61Sofia's Pov After Mark finished eating me out on his desk I decided to let him work, I went to clean up in the bathroom at his office. A neat clean space and a nice bathtub but I wanted to use the jacuzzi. "Why do you even have everything at your office? You still keep your clothes here too" I scoffed, it's not like he stays here or anything I don't get why he has these things here. "Sometimes I change my clothes depending on the meeting Bonita, and I use the bathroom too" He replied. I stepped into the automatic shower and it rained down on my naked body, the water was too warm so I switched to cold. I gasped as I felt hands wrapped around me from behind, "Don't you have work?" I sighed. "I do but the thought of you having a bath in my office turns me on, and you don't know how much I fantasized about you here while jerking off, your soft moans and the way you beg me to keep going and stop at the same time" He whispered into my ear. He grabbed my breast with both h
Chapter 60Mark's PovI'm losing my mind! My wife is missing and her phone isn't going through. "Boss I just called Dallas and he said they are sleeping over, and he also said she told you about it," Damian said and I sighed. She is still mad at me, and she doesn't want to see me. What am I supposed to do now? "This is Reid's fucking fault, I told him my wife isn't capable of such a thing, the asshole made me ask her" I groaned. "You should have listened to him, I wouldn't even believe it if you told me your wife isn't that kind of person," Damian remarked and I was so pissed and tired. "What are you going to do to the traitor?" He asked. "I will take care of him tomorrow morning, for now, I need to sleep" I hung up on him even though I knew sleep would be hard tonight, I didn't have her beside me and I promised I wouldn't be smoking again. "Fuck this, she could have at least told me" I sighed rubbing my face with my hands, I miss having her petite figure on my bed wrapped ar
Chapter 59Sofia's Pov He rushed after me and caught my hand before I got into the car, "They are just substitutes and they will be out of your sight if that is what you want" Mark said. "That is not what I want, you didn't bother to tell me about it. You always do this and it's as if I don't have a say in my own life, and I'm so tired of people making discussions for me every time if you are going to be any different then I guess I was wrong about you" I yanked my hand from his group, my bodyguards had moved away from the car the moment they noticed we were arguing but it was still embarrassing to be having a dispute in front of them not to mention Lois who just started at us in confusion."This is my problem with you why are you being dramatic when you could have just talked to me about it, how am I supposed to know you have an interest in these things when you couldn't even look at me when your driver died" He emphasized, he always thinks he is right and everyone else is wrong.
Chapter 58Sofia's Pov Mark's mother continued her verbal assaults but I was too worried about the look on my husband's face when he walked back inside after making a phone call outside, I patted Lois and dropped him on the floor so he could go play with his toys. "If you are done, you know what to do" I smirked at her indicating she leaves when she's done blabbing, her face turned red and she stood up. "Don't you dare say that to me! You have no right to chase me out of my son's house" She said angrily and I rolled my eyes at her dramatic behavior. "I wasn't chasing you, I was just reminding you because you said I didn't have the right to lay claim on your son. But of course I'm the one staying here not you, I'm the one he accepted and I'm the one in charge here. I respect you as his mother but I do not respect that you use every opportunity to belittle me, I honestly do not care if you like me or not, that's your concern" I replied and walked away heading for my room. I did man
Chapter 57Mark's Pov I knew it was hard for her but I couldn't bear with her when she turned the whole thing against me, I will do anything to keep her safe, and if she thinks I'm the devil for wanting to keep her safe then so be it. I left for my room and called Damian, we were looking for whoever was responsible for my wife's incident, it was a bold move and very calculated too like an inside job. They knew that I was vulnerable at the moment and used the opportunity to strike, all my men swore their fealty to me and most of them, I gave a second chance to live just as I did with her driver. Speaking of which I have to find another one, this time her bodyguards are going to be in the same car with her. I hate that idea but I can't possibly be thinking about anything but what will keep her safe, Damian went to pick Lois up from school and Joey was fast asleep upstairs. My wife is pissed at me so it's better I give her some space for now, after all, I'm the cause of whatever the
Chapter 56 Sofia's Pov I stayed quiet at the back of the car as Dallas drove me back to school, he was speaking to Mark on the phone but I was too lost in thought. Rio and Fabio stayed back to get rid of the damage while Mark ordered Dallas to take me back, "Mrs Carvajal?" Dallas called and I turned to look at him. "Are you alright?" He narrowed his brows at whatever haunted expression he saw on my face, I nodded before focusing back outside the window. I wished I stayed back at school this wouldn't have happened, and that man would still be alive. It's all because of me. Did I fail to realize that as the wife of a Carvajal, I'm most likely to become a target, and for what purpose? I don't need these bodyguards if they are all going to die that way because of me, "The boss said he will pick you up after you are done" He enunciated. Again I was unable to take my mind off the incident, it's just my first day what will happen from now on? Is everything going to be the same? We g
Chapter 54Mark's Pov I was in my office going through some documents when I got a phone call from Enzo, I told him to release Damian not because of my wife's request but because I need a helping hand with everything going on. I sent for him to come to the company, Marcel knocked on the door before walking in, and she brought documents for me to check out. These past few weeks she has been in charge and she's surprisingly good at what she does. I noticed that she was wearing a long skirt with a very wide slit, I thought I warned her to stop dressing like that. "Sir these are the documents you asked for" She bowed and dropped them on my desk, "You can leave now" I dismissed but she lingered and I raised an eyebrow at her. "Do you have anything else to say?" I asked the aggravating woman and she shook her head and then proceeded to pivot around my desk, making me wonder where she got the audacity to even come close to me. "I noticed you look very tired so I wanted to help" I fel
Chapter 53 Sofia's Pov The last few weeks have been great and Mark was recovering while fucking me with any chance he gets, my brother already left and today is my first day at college. I'm excited and also very nervous, my husband was even worse he wore this expression of disapproval when I was dressing up. "It's a jumpsuit I can't wear I skirt on top, stop being such an old man" I shook my head and continued applying mascara, I had changed my clothes for the fifth time and I think he wanted me to wear a maternity dress instead. "Your ass looks great in this what if those little boys stares at you" He complained and I scoffed. I was wearing a black jumpsuit sleeveless jumpsuit which can also be mistaken for separate clothing because the bottom looked like trousers, I wore gold earrings and a bracelet. "I don't care about them, plus I'm married to you" I interjected and he hummed from behind me then lifted my hair out of the way as he helped me out with my necklace. "I'm sorry
Chapter 52Sofia's Pov A moan escaped my lips as he slipped his fingers into my jeans finding my clit, he pushed my lace panties aside and slide two fingers inside me. "For someone who is opposed to this you are soaking wet" He whispered into my ears and I tugged his hair. "I hate you" I breathed gasping as he adds another finger, "But your pussy says otherwise" He teased and fastened his pace until I came undone. I thought that was it, but he lifted me off him and made me sit on the bed, then he left to go lock the door and veered with a sly smirk playing on his lips. "Mark stop staining yourself" I scolded after catching my breath, he ignored me unbuckling his belt my eyes widened as he put it around my neck and tightened it. He yanked my jeans down taking it off me and I was so blinded by lust that I helped take off my shirt. Now standing half naked in front of him while he stared at my body, I felt exposed and uncertainty settled in the pit of my stomach, I forgot he was ex
