Sofia’s pov The first thing I noticed as soon as I blinked my eyes open, was Luca’s eyes staring into mine, with different emotions running through it. He had his head pillowed a few inches away from my face, and when his eyes trailed down my body, was when the entire memory of last rushed into my head.I blinked a couple of times, biting on my bottom lip to stop the smile that was threatening to stretch out on my face. As if on cue, the sides of Luca’s lips curled up in a soft smile, and the image of him right now, smiling at me looking drop dead gorgeous with his sexy bed hair, tugged at my stomach a little.“How are you?” Luca asked, voice soft and I poked at the inside of my cheeks for a moment before responding.“I feel really good.” I responded homesly, Luca let out a low hum and inched closer to me, when my breath catch in my throat when his hand lightly traced the curve of my throat and collarbone with his eyes taking every expression on my face in.“Good, good?” He a

Sofia’s pov As soon as Luca and I stepped into the interior of the club, I felt my breath catch in my throat. I tightened my hold on Luca’s hand as I stared at every corner at once, while trying to look at everywhere at once.“We aren’t participating in anything today, okay? We’re just bringing spectators and nothing more, that’s all, so there’s no need for you to be nervous, okay?” He had reminded me in the car, on the drive here, right before he went on to remind me that we could leave whenever I wanted us to should I get uncomfortable or weirded out by the entire thing, and I had stored it at the front of my mind when we alighted the car.But now that we were heading deeper and deeper into the club, walking past a lot of people who were dressed in something similar to what Luca had on, while who I’d assume were their subs, were seated by their feet, some discussing with themselves right there on the floor, while some were quiet, staring into space while their Don’s ran their finger

Sofia’s pov Despite how much I never wanted my birthday period to come to an end, it did end up coming to an end after a few more days, forcing me out of my magical cocoon with Luca, back into the actual reality that is the real world,Well, it’s a good thing that I have Luca with me in the real life world.Luca barely worked throughout the time we spent on his private resort, giving me all his complete attention most of the time, one which I drink up every damn moment.“I’m so glad I could make your birthday memorable.” Luca’s voice was soft as he spoke, hands combing through my hair as his other hand cradled my head. I let out a long contented sigh and burrowed into him some more.“It’s all thanks to you.” I reminded him.As he traveled back home, we took the yatch once again, and this time, Luca provided me with a bunch of papers to sign.“What are these?” I asked while blinking up at him, mouth falling open when I glanced back at it and noticed the top heading of the papers,

James’ pov Despite how much I dug and dug, it was still fruitless.At this point, I might have start to give up a little,I refused to ask Blair about it because I had told myself I wasn’t going to do that, and I’m very much determined to do just that.Besides, I hate admitting defeat. That’s why I’m determined to figure it all out on my own. Although, with the way everything is seeming now, I wasn’t sure I’d be getting to the bottom of this any time soon.Knowing how Blair is, she’d gloat at the fact that I’m coming back to her after trying to figure it all out on my own, and I didn't want to be in that situation at all. After following the trail of that late woman, down to her daughter who’s also dead, that had pretty much been where the trail had ended up at, which is not only annoying, but quite irritating to be consistently looking for something and coming up with little to no information that isn’t helping matters in any way.The woman – the late woman, had a daughte

Blair’s pov The ride back to James’ apartment is silent. It was so silent, that it felt like I could clearly hear my own heartbeat thumping in my ears. I pointedly stared out the window throughout the ride home while contemplating how I’m going to start talking about it tonight.James had asked me the question which I had seen coming, having been expecting him to give up his search a long time ago and come ask me directly.Although, I hadn’t expected him to spring it when it had felt so perfect and quiet around us.That question had been enough to shatter what it was that had settled over us that moment.As soon as I pulled away from him in that moment, I squared my chin and folded my arms around my middle. “Aren’t you searching for answers yourself any longer?” I had asked, and James has remained quiet as he shoved his hands into his pockets before shrugging a little.“You knew I’d hit a dead end from the very start.” He spike softly and I averted my gaze to stare into the
