Betrothed To The Mafia Lord novel Chapter 165

Luca’s POV

After spending over five hours at the wedding, Sofia and I were finally leaning for home. I bid Travis goodbye after exchanging contacts and promising each other to hang out in a few days, we finally went both ways. I was pleased that Sofia had been able to hit it off with Kayla, I’ve always wondered how she copes at home, being all by herself and having the same company every day after day, but at least now, hopefully she’d be able to hit it off with Kayla online… and if they do, that’s the only thing that’s going to determine if their friendship is going to grow into something meaningful, or if it’s just going to die down after tonight.

Well. Time’s going to tell.

I breathed out a small sigh and glanced sideways and my eyes drank in Sofia in all her glory, and all I wanted to do at the moment, is to pull her over my thighs and take her lips in a deep kiss. I’ve been dying to take her lips in a deep kiss after she had dressed up tonight and applied on a kind of lipgloss that had looked really pretty, and I had wanted to know how that kind of lipgloss tasted, I had wanted to know how it tasted so bad, I had wanted to taste if off her lips.

I averted my gaze and focused my gaze on my fingers as the car drove past lots of large buildings really fast. Sodiq was currently doing nothing, all she was doing was staring straight ahead at the other chairs opposite her, with her fingers moving around on her thighs. I didn’t want to move closer to get abs pull her into my arms, or to reach out and take her hand in mine to stop her From twisting them over and over again – but like I had said before, I didn’t want to overwhelm her, because I had a feeling that I was already overwhelming her enough, and that she deserved to have some alone time to herself beside me, and not need me bring all over her, just because we’ve started to grow closer and had started to exchange kisses.

I lifted my hand up and carded it through my curls, puffing out a deep breath and leaning back against the backrest of my seat, as the breath eased out of my lungs slowly. I turned my head sideways and caught Sofia staring at me, with her teeth worrying over her lower lip, as her blue eyes blinked down at me.

I stared at her pointedly for a few seconds before reaching my hand out and using it to push her hair out of her face, and I watched as she lowered her eyes as soon as my fingers had made contact with her smooth face.

Lord, she was so damn beautiful, and once again, her eyes looked really good this way. It wasn’t like she wasn’t beautiful on a normal day with completely bare face, because she was usually drop dead gorgeous on those days, but tonight, with her dress, the makeup, and herself in particular, it seemed like it was all getting to my head than I’d have ever brought myself to predict.

I dragged my fingers over yer cheeks and moved it towards her hair, touching another strand of hair behind her ear once again.

“What’s wrong?” I asked softly and I watched as her eyes fluttered, right before she shook her head after a few moments. I contemplated on what to do or say for a few seconds, before finally settling on the fact that I just wanted us to remain in silence. And so I snaked my hand around her neck and tugged her towards me, and she dropped over my chest, with her eyes which had widened for a moment, staring into my eyes as soon as the top of her body almost splayed over my chest and arm.

I held her that way and dragged my eyes off her face, staring straight up into the roof of the car, because sterling into Sofia’s face and her lips wasn’t helping my matters one bit, it was only marking matters worse in my head, and it was also making it harder for me to hold myself back from taking her lips in a kiss which would make her toes curl with pleasure.

After about ten minutes more, the car finally arrived home and some moments later, the gates slid open and the car drove into the compound.

The door of the car got pulled open and by then, we were both sitting straight in our seats once again with a little bit of space beside us. As soon as the driver had pulled the door open, I alighted the car first, and I waited at the door way and stretched my hand out for her, in which she accepted before alighting the car as well. We started to make our way up the few stairs and waited beside the door for me to fish the keys out.

As soon as I had gotten the door open, we both made our way into the house and I pushed and locked the door carefully instantly. I turned my head around to see Sofia crouched down while she tried to unbuckle her sandals.

“Your legs are starting to hurt?” I asked almost immediately after watching her completely get the first one off her foot. She glanced up and smiled sheepishly at me before giving a nod of her head.
