Sofia was pleasantly surprised and deeply gratified. As Arthur had said, they truly proved to be an excellent team. Together, they had handled the negotiation seamlessly, leaving the client with no choice but to finalize the agreement."I told you, Sofia. I already knew this deal was ours—after all, our boss is truly exceptional," Arthur said smugly, though his voice carried genuine admiration.His words were undeniably flattering, bringing a smile to Sofia’s lips. Recognition for one's achievements was always gratifying, and his praise only fueled her determination to prove herself worthy of the trust placed in her."Thank you, Arthur. We both made it happen. Your support was invaluable," she responded politely, appreciating his unwavering assistance.Arthur chuckled, his bright smile widening. "You're welcome, ma’am," he said with playful formality. "So, do I deserve a lavish meal at my favorite luxury restaurant?" he asked, his eyes filled with hopeful expectation.Sofia let out a

Leonardo sat cross-legged on the floor, surrounded by scattered sheets of colored paper, glue sticks, ribbons, and a generous sprinkling of glitter. The chaos of arts and crafts supplies sprawled around him was nothing compared to the expectant gazes of his children, piercing through his confidence like tiny, determined daggers.Vincenzo and Lucia stared at him with wide, hopeful eyes, their patience waning with each passing second. The room, usually a place of childhood wonder, felt stifling under their silent judgment. Their previous masterpieces adorned the walls—finger-painted landscapes, cotton-ball animals, and glittery shapes that looked more like abstract art than anything recognizable. And yet, here he was, a grown man, utterly incapable of coming up with a simple kindergarten project.For the first time in his life, Leonardo felt a deep, unfamiliar sense of inadequacy. Negotiating multi-million-dollar deals? Easy. Handling underground mafia affairs? Routine. But sitting here,

After tucking the children into bed, Leonardo made his way to the master bedroom, the exhaustion of the day settling into his bones. It had been a long, draining day—one that had opened his eyes to just how incredible Sofia was.She had raised their two kids alone for years, handling every tantrum, every school project, every scraped knee, and every bedtime story. He had struggled to manage one day, and the realization hit him hard. He felt an overwhelming urge to tell her how amazing she was, how grateful he was for everything she had done without a single complaint.And now, more than ever, he was determined to step up. To share the weight of parenting, to give her the time and freedom to focus on herself and her business. He wanted to be there—not just as a provider but as a father present in his children’s lives.With a foolish grin on his face, Leonardo pushed open the bedroom door, eager to collapse into bed after the day's chaos.But the sight that greeted him left him speechle

Sofia’s delicate hands slid around Leonardo’s neck, her soft fingers threading into his hair as she pulled herself flush against him. The moment her lips met his, the world around them ceased to exist. The fatigue, the grievances, the lingering tension between them—none of it mattered anymore.Her kiss wasn’t just a kiss; it was a firestorm, an undeniable surge of raw, unrestrained need. It had been too long. Too damn long since he’d had her like this—since she had melted into him since her body had trembled with desire beneath his touch.A sharp inhale did nothing to steady the molten lust coursing through his veins. Control was slipping, burning away like paper in an inferno.With a low growl, Leonardo tightened his grip around her waist and twisted, flipping her beneath him in one swift, effortless motion. He caged her against the headboard, his broad frame pressing her down as he claimed her mouth with renewed hunger.Sofia gasped, her breath hitching as she arched instinctively i

His smirk sharpened. “My sexy wife, when did you become so demanding in bed?”Sofia whimpered in frustration, and that was all the permission he needed. He sealed his mouth around her breast once more, taking, consuming, until she was writhing beneath him, her breath coming in sharp gasps.She dug her nails into his scalp. “Oh my God, Leonardo...”His teeth scraped over her sensitive bud, a wicked promise of pleasure-pain, before he released her with a firm, teasing pull. “Something you want to say, sweetheart?”She blinked up at him, dazed, lips parting as though words had abandoned her. Then, in a breathless whisper—so desperate, so needy—she murmured, "Just… more."Leonardo’s eyes darkened with satisfaction. “You like it harder?”Her silence made him chuckle. He dragged his thumb over her pebbled nipple, waiting, pushing. “Tell me, Sofia,” he demanded, his voice low and authoritative.She shuddered beneath him, lips parting in a soundless plea, her damp eyes locked onto his with unr
