Luca’s POV When we finally arrived in New York, Sofia was fast asleep– had just fallen asleep about an hour ago, which was why I had to carry her in my arms as I alighted the plane, her time panties stuffed deep inside my pocket. I knew she was going to pout sadly at me whenever she wakes up and realized that she didn’t get to take in how New York looked as she was alighting the plane, but I just couldn’t bring myself to wake up because of how peaceful she looked.A few cars were already waiting, I got into one in between the two car, which belonged to my guards. There was no way I clumd go anywhere without my guards, for protection, although now that we were all away from home, they were all going to be as de secret as possible in other not to draw any kind of attention towards Sofia and I. Sofia had clung to me after I had settled into the car, still fast asleep and I hadn’t been able to bring myself to lay her on the chair in order to attend ti some important calls, and so I
James POV “Please send the files in, the whole files– yes, exactly. And the Blackwood’s full file from three months back… yes. Thank you.” I placed the telephone back on the table and breathed out a deep sigh.I was the one in charge now. I was in charge of not just the running of this company, but as well as all the other branches located here in Italy. Basically, I was sitting in for my best friend since forever, Luca, until whenever he returns.Doing stuff like this used to be once overwhelming, but not any longer. I was now used to it, because if the amount of times I’ve done it. About the mafia, since I sss his right hand man, whenever he was absent, I’m expected to step in automatically, and that’s exactly what I’m doing now.Which leaves not just Luca’s share of the work here in the office to be on my neck, but along with the mafia lifestyle, coupled with my own usual share of the work, but with everything altogether.I wasn’t complaining though, because it wasn’t like L
James pov The girl who was sent from hell, who still had her mouth gapping open like a fish that was struggling to breathe, like it was taking her ages to process the fact that she had just ruined my outfit and that it was a very bad thing entirely to be on the receiving end of my anger. It was like everything snapped into places for her in the next second because she was scrambling to her feet and hurrying towards me, with eyes widened like saucers.She barely glanced up at me and instead went straight to my ruined inner shirt and then she began – she began to scrub her hands which I noticed were trembling, against my inner shirt. A part of hands that was covered in dirt and also – blood?She was only making matters worse, my burnt brown inner white shirt was now w dirt brown and coffee brown, along with different smear of blood seeing as she kept on scrubbing at the shirt, like even if her hands were clean, it was going to be possible to get to coffee stains out of it that w
Sofia’s pov Waking up with Luca beside me would never feel old to me, it was something I’d always love. It was something I’d always feel my heart flutter at, each morning that turns out like this. Luca was fast asleep and I nuzzled into his throat and grinned when his hands tightened around me on reflex, when I was a hundred percent sure he was fast asleep.I managed to fall back asleep that way, and didn’t wake up until probably an hour later, to his lips scattering kisses over every part of my face, and I giggled as I slowly blinked my eyes open to stare at him. My eyes fell on his lips and back on his eyes and I watched as a small, knowing grin made its way to his face. Why he was refusing to kiss me was still beyond. Apart from that night when he had said that I was a bad girl and needed to earn the kiss, he hadn’t kissed me on the lips since then. And although it’s quite exciting and leaves me longing for it each time I focus on his lips, I was starting to get a little bit
Sofia’s pov “How are you this stunning?” I turned around as soon as I had heard Luca’s voice to see him staring at me from the other side of the room, wth his hands deep in his pockets as he looked me up and down with a burning heat brewing inside his eyes. I grinned and rolled my eyes a little.“I have no idea of what you’re talking about.” I finally responded as I turned around to continue applying my eyeliner and mascara. It was a good thing I knew how to do my eye makeup on my own, because I know that I always have to look good as the wife of Luca. Once I was done with my eyes, I was applying some gloss on my lips when Luca came to stand behind me and I shivered a little when his hard body pressed against me from behind. I glanced at him in the mirror before me and bit on my bottom lip when he slide his hands around my hips and up to thumb my nipples a little. He finally settled them on my hips and whispered a low ‘fuck’ in my ear that made me swallow down a whimper.“You’re
Sofia’s pov The first thing I noticed was how this supposed club was so much different from what I had always imagined how a club used to look like. I've always read about how club looked from the amount of times I read about it in books, but this was completely different from what I had almost imagined. No dangerous thoughts I had came up with in my head could have prepared with what I was being faced with right now.There were a lot of girls who were barely dressed, they were gsryeter around the part of the opened area that I’d call a stage, and they were pole dancing. A quick glance around and I felt myself shiver a little at what I saw, there were people dancing on top of men and doing all sort of stuff that made me shudder in a bad way, and I felt myself pressing against Luca’s dude unconsciously.“You okay, bunny?” He asked when I glanced up at him. There sss lots music playing from another area of the club, but it wasn’t all that loud, that didn’t require Luca to shout a
Sofia’s pov I wasn’t the only female around the table right now, there were a few other women sitting beside who I’d presume as their husbands, and I instantly noticed that they were older than I am. They kept regarding me with unreadable expression and as expected, i acted like I couldn’t feel their eyes on me.I noticed when one of the men offered a cigarette to Luca which he declined, and almost immediately, he was offered something that was wrapped in brown paper that I knew produced smoke as well. Luca accepted it but didn’t lit it. He was offered drink which he accepted and cradled in his hand, but I was very sure he wasn’t going to be tasting it. After that, all the men around the table fell into a conversation that I wouldn’t even be able to understand why if i had paid all my attention to it, all I knew was that they were talking about some wears and other things which I didn’t waste time in tuning out. I glanced around after that I was quick to avert my gaze from a sc
Sofia’s pov The first thing I had thought of when everyone around the table were suddenly pointing their guns at Luca, was that they were somehow going to shoot him or something, but because I could even think of anything else– Luca, who didn’t even look unfazed while being pointed over twenty guns– began to speak.“There’s someone here who’s pointing his gun here right now… I thought this whole place was supposed to have been filtered well?” I watched as everyone remained frozen, but Luca gestured to the man standing exactly before him to shift a little, and when he did– the dancer and the man she was grinding on remained frozen in a spot.“There they are.” Luca drawled to everyone around the table, and when the men around the table still looked unsure, was exactly when everything broke lose.Before I could blink, the girl was sliding off the man like a snake and whipping out a gun and a couple of knifes which she flung towards our table as she began to shoot. The next thing
