SONIA’S POV

It takes me a minute to realize the sound of a door being shut came from my room. As soon as my brain registers it, I scramble up from my bed with as much strength as I can muster.

Anthony is back home.

And I’m not even scared of the fact that it might not actually have been him who came in here, but I know it’s not a bugler. Call it whatever you may, but I always feel Anthony whenever he’s in the vicinity.

I don’t know what to call it, but it sure is a really bold observation on my part for someone who doesn’t give a lot of fucks about me.

As I walk out of my room, re-tying my clothing around me, I try to figure out if that is even true. He’d been in my room minutes ago, after all. Maybe grandpa told him how worried I was, and he came in to check if I was doing fine… only to find me asleep.

Should I feel bad for falling asleep when there was a possibility of his life being at stake? I do, actually. Even though he might not necessarily mind considering my pregnancy.

  • The Mafia’s Pregnant Bride   CHAPTER 057: WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TODAY?

    SONIA’S POVThe quiet grunt sounds that come out of Anthony are the only indicator that shows he feels the brutal stinging of the needle piercing his skin. More and more of his blood even coats my hand now, and originally, I’d want to puke, but Anthony seems to understand this as he has been bringing up small talk, probably as a means to distract me. “Good job, my darling.” My belly dips at his comment, but I don’t take my eyes away from what I’m doing as I’m eager not to mess things up. “Now take the needle underneath that one and pull.” “How many times do I have to do it?” I whisper.“As many times as you feel is fine.” So I do it five times and nothing more. Anthony examines my work with the mirror he’d been using to guide me, as I dip cotton wool in spirit and proceed to clean the area. By the time we’re done and I’ve gathered the first aid back in its box, the time on the wall reads 4:23 a.m., and when I see Anthony’s eyes are on the clock as well, I already know what he’s g

  • The Mafia’s Pregnant Bride   CHAPTER 056: SHIRT OFF

    SONIA’S POV“You are one hell of a woman,” He mutters. “Me?” I scoff. “You’re the one who keeps making things difficult, Anthony. I’m trying to show you that I care here, but you keep pushing me away. Jesus!”He gets up on his feet to turn on the heater, but he doesn’t come back, creating enough space in between us as his hands remain in his pants pocket and he stares at me from the distance. I almost laugh. As if that can keep me away. “You’re probably going to go into a state of shock any time from now. That’s why you think you’re cold.” I take two steps further, and when he doesn’t move away, I take more gentle steps towards him. “I said it’s not my blood, Sonia.”“Okay, then let me see!” gahhh!I feel so insanely frustrated that I so badly want to tell him to go fuck himself and then be out of his office and back on my bed, but I bite down on my bottom lip to physically stop from blurting it out.His eyes immediately drop down to where my teeth are digging firmly into my flesh

  • The Mafia’s Pregnant Bride   CHAPTER 054: BAD TURNOUT

    ANTHONY’S POVIt’s not until 3 a.m. that I walk into the familiar comfort of my home, my system filled with more alcohol than I’ve consumed in a while. I’m not drunk, though, considering I was the one who drove myself back home – at least not drunk enough. But isn’t that what every drunk or high person always says?Now would be a good time to laugh at my self-made joke, but I’m still too bereft to feel anything other than the pounding ache behind my eyes. The day had taken an unexpected turn, and by unexpected, I mean bad. A very bad turn. After Dexter had lost it, triggering his gun that was aimed at my heart, my life flashed right before my eyes. In that moment, my head hadn’t been in the ongoing deal that would become null and void when I died, nor was it in the fact that I’d be leaving my multi-billion dollar company in the hands of another, carrying on my legacy, since Taylor didn’t know the first thing about how to run a company. My friend thrived better in the underworld sy

  • The Mafia’s Pregnant Bride   CHAPTER 053: DISTRAUGHT

    SONIA’S POVThe last time I felt this uneasy, distressing feeling was on the night I got back to Shaun’s apartment to pack my things after I caught him cheating on me with my ex-best friend, Jessica. It seems like such a long time now since that happened. And since then, in the time frame of about six months, there’s no denying that a lot has changed in my life. I moved over to another city, got married to a wealthy man, started working, made new friends… and even fell in love again. Although my feelings might possibly be one-sided, for all I know, it feels good knowing that I still have room in my heart to feel things for someone other than Shaun.Yes, I experienced my fair share of distressing moments with my ex, but none of them come close to what I feel now, standing in this sitting room, a pounding heart in my mouth over the fact that I don’t know what’s become of Anthony. Is he alive? Is he dead?What is happening?I called grandpa after I arrived, to let him know I had gott

  • The Mafia’s Pregnant Bride   CHAPTER 052: IN GOOD HANDS

    SONIA’S POVBACK TO THE PRESENT TIMEI must say, Anthony’s grandpa must have definitely been quite the catch in his youthful days. Decades later, and there’s no denying the fact that he’s still got it. Charm? Top notch.Height? Swoon worthy for an 80 year old man.Looks? I see why Anthony looks like he was carved out of some Greek world. The Romano genetics are insane.If you think I’m lying, wait till you see the trail of gawking women Grandpa Alistair’s been leaving in his wake. One even asked if we were a couple. While she must have meant well, the other woman beside her looked at me like I was some gold digger. And it didn’t help that I had nodded vigorously to their question, winding our arms together as we took a walk in the park. If what’s going on with me and Anthony was real, I would say that he’s got some serious competition headed his way… but none of it is real.“What are you thinking about, my dear?” Grandpa adjusts our arms so that mine are on his biceps. “Oh, I’m jus
