FORBIDDEN INTIMACY

"Before we go in," he said, cupping my cheek with one hand, his touch surprisingly gentle, "I'm going to fuck you. Are you okay with that?"  Luca Rossi, a ruthless Italian billionaire and Mafia leader, is grappling with the devastating loss of his mother, the only person who saw beyond his carefully constructed facade. Seeking solace in his exclusive Los Angeles nightclub, he encounters Lena, an independent and ambitious woman who's struggling to make ends meet. Their passionate one-night stand leaves both of them reeling, but it's only the beginning of a complicated and forbidden romance.

Chapter: Chapter 93 - SUNSHINE, SOUFFLES AND SECOND CHANCES
Lena's POVI woke up with a bright smile on my face, sunshine streaming through the large window doors. Yesterday, which had started off as a pretty bad day, ended as the most beautiful, perfect, and blessed day I could ever wish for. A day I'd cherish forever. Luca, a ring, promises of forever - it was all still surreal.Luca wasn't on his side of the bed, so I stood up, my bare feet padding softly on the floor. I followed the delicious aroma that had actually woken me up and It led me to the kitchen, where I found him at the stove."Hey, baby," Luca said, turning and hugging me from the side, his hand gently resting on my belly. He kissed my belly then kissed my lips."Hey," I smiled, feeling a warmth spread through me as I leaned into him."I see, last night took a toll on you, eh?" Luca smirked, his eyes twinkling with mischief.True. I could barely walk and was definitely limping, but isn't that how it always is when it comes to Luca? And honestly, I wouldn't have it any other

Chapter: Chapter 92 - LUCA'S FOREVER
Lena's POVI was feeling better. A whole lot better than I had been earlier. The apple juice, the fresh air, Luca's unwavering support – whatever it was, it had worked its magic. I was sitting in the little vanity area, my hair in heatless curls that gave it a soft, natural wave. I had put on a little mascara, just enough to make my eyes pop, and was now applying my favorite gloss. My lips were so much plumper these days, a gift from the baby. Pregnancy – it was a love-hate relationship, but I wouldn't trade this journey for anything."I'm feeling a lot better and don't wanna be cooped up in here," I said to Luca, who was sprawled on the bed just....... admiring me. The way he was looking at me when I turned to him made my legs weak. Thankfully, I was sitting down. My belly was full of fucking butterflies. I was jelly. This feeling can never get old with Luca, I swear."How are you feeling now?" he asked, his voice low and husky emphasizing the last word with a suggestive eyebrow ra

Chapter: Chapter 91 - SOOTHING LULLABY: A SUDDEN JOLT
Lena's POVIt was a long day. A very long day. From landing in Mexico still stewing in my anger, to experiencing the culinary revelation that was that beachside burrito.(Seriously, who knew simple could taste that good?), to Luca somehow whisking me away to this ridiculous beach house with a view that could make even the most hardened cynic weak in the knees. He had took me shopping, buying so many things we didn’t need, things that were undeniably beautiful, but also ridiculously expensive. Then the speedboat ride which had been exhilarating, the wind whipping through my hair as we sped across the turquoise water.Now, finally, I was tired, overfed, and blissfully horizontal. Luca joined me on the bed, the mattress dipping slightly under his weight. He gently pushed a strand of hair away from my face, his touch feather-light.“So, how was today?” he asked, his eyes searching mine.“Exhausting, but very fucking fun,” I admitted, the corners of my mouth tugging upwards.“Yeah?” He se

Chapter: Chapter 90 - MORE THAN A VACATION: SUNSHINE AND SPAT
Lena's POVThe roaring engine of the plane finally quieted, and I felt a gentle nudge. Groaning, I peeled my eyes open to find Luca hovering over me."Princess? We're about to land, wake up." he shook my shoulder gently.I mumbled something incoherent and reluctantly sat up, rubbing the sleep from my eyes."How are you feeling?" he asked, his voice soft and laced with concern."A little sore. Not bad," I mumbled, stretching gingerly, trying to keep my tone neutral. It was hard to mask the resentment bubbling inside me.The plane doors opened, Luca held out a hand, and I took it, letting him guide me to my feet. He was already ushering me out. "Before we leave, you need something?""Yeah, probably a chocolate bar and some rice," Luca stopped dead in his tracks, amusement dancing in his eyes. "Chocolate? Rice?""Yeah?" I raised an eyebrow, daring him to comment."But you don't like chocolate?" he teased."Oh yeah," I retorted, rolling my eyes. "Pregnancy." This idiot laughed in my fac

Chapter: Chapter 89 - PILLOW TALK AND PROMISES
Lena's POVI went down on my knees in front of Luca, wanting to return the pleasure and show him how much I appreciated him. But he shook his head, a knowing smile playing on his lips. "Mmm… no, princess. Save your strength for later. You'll be needing it.""What do you mean?" I asked, my curiosity piqued."Don't stress about that," he said, waving his hand dismissively."Tell meeeee," I dragged out, my voice laced with playful pleading."Where do you wanna go?" he asked, changing the subject."How?""For a vacation. Where do you want to visit?""Ummm…" I paused for a bit, thinking. "I think maybe Mexico, Tulum. There's so much food I wanna try.""Guessed fucking right," Luca said with a wide smile and picked me up from the ground, twirling me around. "Well, guess what? We're going on a trip to Mexico.""For real?" I squealed, my eyes widening with excitement."Yeah," he confirmed, his smile unwavering."Yeah?" I repeated, wanting to make sure I wasn't dreaming."Sì," he replied, his

Chapter: Chapter 88 - TESTING BOUNDARIES: PUSH AND PULL
Lena's POVI pretended like I didn't hear him, batting my eyelashes innocently. "What?" I asked again, my voice all sweetness and light, feigning ignorance."Don't act like you're deaf all of a sudden. I know you can hear me loud and clear," Luca said, his voice a low growl, his patience wearing thin."You're causing me a headache," I whined, clutching my forehead dramatically."Exactly. What's this?" Luca asked again, holding up the crumpled takeout wrappers and containers."I don't know. What does it look like?" I retorted, crossing my arms defensively. My defiance wavering slightly under his intense gaze.Luca walked up to me, his large frame towering over me, casting a long shadow. He reached out and grabbed my throat in a chokehold, not tight enough to hurt, but enough to make his point. "You want to be a bad girl, hmm?"Luca's manly smell, the intoxicating mix of his natural musk and expensive cologne, wafted in the air. The cologne was too strong for my pregnancy hormones, mak
