Immediately the call from Lucia ended, he tried calling her back, her phone was switched off, she would not have called him if she wasn't in danger that he knew for sure. He summoned Andreo and 10 of his men they went into the arsenal got whatever weapons they needed and drove to her house.

" I should not have allowed her to leave", he thought aloud.

" You could not have seen this coming boss", Andreo replied.

They drove as fast as the cars could go, he regretted what happened to Jimmy and he wasn't going to let the same thing happen to his daughter.

They got to the house, they need to tread carefully so as not to alert the intruders, Andretti gave the signal and they went inside, downstairs was empty and they could hear voices coming from up, as they walked up the stairs.

One of the intruder came down the stairs, Andreo stealthily knocked him out, they have to move fast because now they would know something is up, they got to her room upstairs and knocked down the door, their were just two men inside, while his men took care of them he saw Lucia, bound to the chair, blindfolded with blood trickling down her forehead.

"Those bastards", he cursed. He hurriedly went to her untie her and removed the blindfold, immediately she saw him , she held him tightly and kept muttering words he could not hear, she must have been so scared.

His men took care of the intruders but kept one of them alive , they would take that one back to the plaza and interrogate him, he would take care of the interrogation himself. He took Lucia back to the car,

"Which one of them did this to you", He asked.

"I don't know, I was blindfolded through out", she answered.

"Only our team knew you were in the house, how could they have possibly found out?", he asked.

"I think someone informed them".

"I shouldn't have left you alone".

"It's not your fault ", she said.

"I'm taking you back to my house, Dr Roberto is on his way already, here let me see", he turned her face towards his to see the injury, it was a small cut just about her eyebrows, as he touched it she winced, " sorry, I'm sorry this happened to you, i promised to protect you and i failed".

"It's really not your fault, I insisted on leaving".

They drove back to his house, Dr Roberto was waiting for them at the entrance, the urgency in which Andretti had called him made him rush over.

"Oh amore, what did those bastards do to you?", Dr Roberto said, touching her cheeks. He held her hands and took her inside, Andretti following closely behind them.

"I am okay, Dr Roberto", Lucia said, she obviously didn't want the doctor to worry, but Andretti could see that she was really shaken up.

" You are going to stay here with me, you are not leaving my sight ever", Andretti proclaimed.

" Calm down Andretti ", she chuckled, " we have only known each other for a few days are you already obsessed with me?", she joked.

"What?!, no I'm not ", Andretti shouted in defense, he didn't want to seem vulnerable.

"Relax, I'm just joking, you are really tense Andretti you should take things too seriously", she said. They had gotten to Andretti's room, two of the house staff were already waiting by the bedside for them, to attend to her every need.

Dr Roberto cleaned and dressed the wound with Andretti looking keenly, luckily she didn't need stitches.

"You should rest now", Dr Roberto said as he packed up his medical kit.

"Okay I will, I'm feeling really stinky I would like to take a shower but I don't have any of my things here with me", she complained.

"I will leave that to you Andretti", Dr Roberto said as he left the room.

"I will be back", Andretti said and left.

An hour later Andretti came back with two staffs carrying loads of shopping bags

"What's all these?", she said.

"Well you need to shower, so I went out to get whatever you could need", he said as the staff dropped the bags on the floor and left.

She got out of bed to check the bags and it was filled with all the shower necessities any girl would ever need, some things he got were even unnecessary, it was obvious he had out done himself.

"How did you know what girl's need to shower", she asked grinning.

" I had help", he confessed.

She looked really impressed that he had gone that far to make sure she was comfortable, she was surprised that someone she just met would be so concerned about her well-being, she felt touched. Andretti may look like a bad guy but he is not so bad after all, she thought.

"I will give you your space to do your thing, the bathroom is right there", he pointed to the adjoining door in the room, " if you need anything my staff is her to help you, this is Marlina", he pointed to the older looking lady among the two standing in the room.

"Hi, Marlina", she greeted the lady who answered with a smile.

"I think I can take a shower by myself though, I don't need Marlina's help", she continued.

" I strongly object, I wouldn't want you to faint in the bath or something ", he objected.

She moved closer to him, very close, she touched his arm and said ," I am really thankful that you care about me this much but trust me, I would really like to take a shower by myself, I just need a little space, I will be good i promise ", there was just something about the way she looked at him, he knew he could not refuse her.

Those eyes, she had the eyes of a calm blue sea, "fine", he agreed.

She moved away from him grabbed some of the bags and walked into the bathroom, he signalled Marlina and the other staff Gia to leave. He walked out after them, those eyes would put me in trouble one day he thought to himself.

    Two hours after she called him, he came back to the house. "Dr Roberto is close by", he said as he walked up to her. He seemed genuinely worried about her. "It's probably fever", she said, trying to make him less anxious. As they sat in the room, waiting for the doctor, the atmosphere in the room is thick with tension. The quiet ticking of the clock on the wall seems louder, each second stretching out endlessly. Lucia sat on the bedside couch, her legs curled beneath her, her hand resting on her abdomen. The usually plush cushions feel stiff beneath her as if they too are tense with anticipation. She shifted occasionally, unable to find comfort, her face pale, a slight sheen of sweat on her brow.Andretti stood near the window, peering out into the street, his fingers tapping nervously against the glass. The usually calming sound of birds chirping outside goes unnoticed as his mind races. The room felt cold with worry. Every creak of the house settling seems amplified, each sound

    It had been days since Andretti's grandfather's birthday, Lucia sat at the kitchen table, staring at her half-eaten breakfast. The smell of toast and coffee, usually so comforting, now made her stomach turn. She pushed the plate away, pressing her fingers to her temples as a dull headache pulsed behind her eyes. Lately, everything had felt off—small waves of nausea in the mornings, a strange fatigue she couldn’t shake, and an odd sense of queasiness at the smell of certain foods. Her hand drifted absentmindedly to her abdomen as she tried to make sense of it. She’d been feeling this way for days, but today it felt more intense. The queasiness hit again, stronger this time, and she quickly stood up, but the sudden motion left her dizzy. She clutched the back of her chair for balance, feeling lightheaded, her heart pounding softly in her chest. Lucia sank back down, eyes wide with a dawning realization. Her period—she hadn’t even thought about it, but now it seemed so obvious. How lon

    Andretti could not sleep that night, meeting his Father was unsettling, he should have known he would be there, it was his Father's birthday and his grandfather had no grievances against him, even his brother. They would not understand the hurt he went through as a child. He would not forget what happened when he was Ten, how one day he stood nervously in his father’s private office, he could vividly remember the dark, wood-paneled room filled with heavy furniture and an ever-present haze of cigar smoke. His father sitting behind an imposing oak desk, casually lighting a cigar as he surveys paperwork. The dim lighting casts deep shadows across the room, creating an air of both luxury and menace. Andretti fidgety, his small hands clenched into fists at his sides, his school uniform rumpled from a day that didn’t go well. His heart racing as he prepared to tell his father about what happened at school, his mother knew what had happened earlier told him to go and meet his father, kn

    Lucia gently squeezing his hand as they walked to the car ,“You don’t have to pretend, Andretti. I saw how much that rattled you.” Andretti said, his eyes focused ahead, “I said I’m fine, Lucia. It’s nothing I haven’t dealt with before.”* Lucia stopped, she tugged his hand to make him face her, “But it is something, Andretti. I could see how much it affected you. You don’t have to carry this on your own.”Andretti stopped ,turning toward her but avoiding her eyes. His breathing was heavy, his mind racing with old memories and anger he thought he’d buried long ago. He ran a hand through his hair in frustration.Andretti, his voice pitched lower, more vulnerable “Every time I’m near him… it’s like I’m back in that house, powerless. He knows exactly how to get under my skin.” Lucia answered softly, “He was cruel. What he said… I can’t imagine how many times you’ve heard things like that from him.”“More times than I can count. And it’s not just words, Lucia. It’s the way he’s always

    Andretti held Lucia’s hand as they walk down the hallway“You did great, You handled him perfectly.” Lucia smiled nervously, still trying to relax after the intense meeting“He didn’t exactly throw a welcome party, though. Are you sure he’s not disappointed?” Andretti laughing softly said “That’s him being impressed, trust me. If he didn’t like you, he would’ve made some offhand comment about your shoes or your posture. The fact that he asked about the non existent child was a good sign.” Lucia grinning.“Well, I’ll take that as a win, then. I was sure my hands were shaking the whole time, but seriously what are we go to do about the child?” Andretti answered, “ I still have no idea, you did a really good job though i don't think he suspects anything .” Just as they reach the end of the hallway, the sound of a door opening behind them makes Andretti stop abruptly. His grip on Lucia’s hand tightened. "What's wrong?, she asked. Andretti focusing his gaze at the person walking tow

The birthday party was taking place at his grandfather's villa, on their drive to the villa he had told Lucia all she needed to know about his grandfather. They got to his grandfather's villa,his grandfather's villa was deep in the Italian country side, the dining room was set up for the birthday dinner. it was a grand and well lit dining room, heavy wooden beams stretched across the ceiling, and the walls are lined with family portraits. The smell of roasted lamb, garlic, and fine wine hangs in the air. At the center of the room was a long, elegant dining table, covered in expensive china, silverware, and fresh flowers. His Grandfather sat at the head of the table as always, his thick white hair slicked back, wearing a dark tailored suit. His deep-set eyes, sharp and calculating, missing nothing as he watched his family gathered to celebrate his 85th birthday. The room was fi

    After the surreal moments of them laying in each other's arms had passed, Lucia sat on the edge of Andretti’s desk, her fingers absently tracing the smooth wood beneath her. Her pulse still thrumming from what just happened, but she watched him, the way he’s trying to regain his composure. He’s not the Andretti most people see—the Mafia boss, the man who commands fear with a glance. Here, alone with her, there’s something raw in his eyes, something vulnerable he was trying hard to mask. He leaned back in his chair, the shadows playing across his face. "Lucia, this was... different," he says, his voice quieter than usual. Different. She almost laughed at the word, but she didn't Instead, she lets a small smile curl at the edges of her lips. "Different how?" She knows exactly what he means, but she wants him to say it. His jaw tightened, and she sees him struggling, trying to find the right words. "You know what I mean, I'm starting to realize that my feelings for you would never go

    When Andretti looked up and saw Lucia standing in the doorway, his chest tightened. His normally unreadable expression flickered, just for a second, with something primal. She looked like temptation personified, her dress clinging to every curve, catching the light in all the right places. His heart gave a hard, involuntary thud, though outwardly, he remained composed. A low heat surged in his veins, a mix of lust and wariness. He wasn’t used to feeling off balance, but Lucia had a way of igniting something dangerous inside him. His eyes traveled slowly from her legs to the sultry gaze that locked with his, and he could feel the magnetic pull between them. Yet beneath the allure, there was an edge. He knew better than to let his guard down. Desire mixed with a flicker of suspicion, he needed to focus on his work in the plaza. He couldn't quite tell if she was there to seduce him or she had an agenda, or both. That uncertainty thrilled and unsettled him, stirring a primal hunger la

    Lucia stood by the large window in her room, staring out at the trees that surrounded the house. The night was silent, save for the soft hum of the wind brushing against the curtains. The room was dimly lit, casting long shadows on the marble floor. She wrapped her arms around herself, her silk robe slipping slightly off her shoulder, but she didn’t bother to fix it. It's been a week since Lucia had seen Andretti, She was told he was busy sorting some things out but he would be back tomorrow for his grandfather's birthday. She was offended that he hadn't reached out of her thorough out, just the usual check ins with Gia to know how she was but they hadn't really talked. Funny how she had all her devices back but they never communicate on the phone she murmured to herself, her voice breaking the stillness. “Andretti is always gone. Always busy with... 'mafia business'.” Her eyes welled up with unshed tears, but she blinked them away, keeping her face strong, as if he could see her
