Betrothed To The Mafia Lord novel Chapter 172

Sofia’s POV

A week has passed since the night Luca and I attended the wedding party together and the night it felt like things officially changed between us. He always returned home on time to have dinner together and ever since he had started to return home for dinner, I had stopped having dinner with Matilda and Sarah. We usually talk whenever we were having dinner and when I think the conversation between us couldn’t get any better, it became so much better and as each day went by, I was always finding myself being drawn to him so damn intensely, and I hadn’t tried to fight the feeling from tne very start, because he hasn’t given me any reason to.

He had been nothing but really good to me. He literally treats me with so much care and respect, something I hadn’t even bothered to try using to deceive myself that I was going to get married, right from the moment I got told that I was feeling to get married to him.

Now, look at me at the moment, I was living nothing but a nice life… I mean, it was really nice from what I was expecting my life to be like before I got married off to him, and I wasn’t going to be complaining about the other things I didn’t have or get access to, like the fact that I still haven’t been able to exchange a word with my little brother ever since my wedding day.

It would be really hypocritical of me to try to say thst I hadn’t been thinking about him almost every day ever since I got married. I had a feeling that Luca might be able to do something about it if I tell him about me wanting to see him or even hear his voice at least, but I didn’t want to push my Luck or to start making it seem like I was about to start misusing the fact that he was treating me really nice… and so I had kept that part locked away, and had told no one but Ryan about the fact that I really wished I can get to see him.

And surprisingly, a teasing part had managed to make its way into our relationship and I loved every part of it, despite how much it made me flush red in embarrassment in the blink of an eye, it still made my heart flutter and cease for a few fleeting seconds.

I shifted in my seat a little and turned my head around to stare out of the window. The car was moving at a really steady pace and I lifted my hand to push my hair behind my ear.

I was currently being driven to the mafia official house for meetings. It was like a palace in the land where kings and queens were still reigning till date, only that for some reasons which I had no idea about, Luca wasn’t living in the same place where this said mafia’s meeting house was located.

Luca had told me about this yesterday night, when we were having dinner together. He told me about how he wished he didn’t have to do something today, so he could be able to accompany me over to where I was currently heading to, because he knew without having to ask, that I was really nervous.

I was currently attending a meeting. It was a meeting which was going to consist of the whole wives of the high generals and men with ranks here in the mafia. Apparently it was high time they all get to meet the wife of their mafia lord officially, and Luca had said that after today, they were all going to have to look up to me in respect and see me as someone way out of their league and on a whole different level compared to where they currently are at the moment… despite the fact that I was going to be the youngest in the midst of the amount of women I was going to be meeting today.

Of course I had told Luca about it, about how I was really nervous about the fact that I was going to end up making a fool of myself and that they were found to end up laughing at me and wouldn’t in a shy way be able to show me any kind of respect. Luca had ordered to not ever say such words again and that he believed in me and was sure I wouldn't end up making a fool of myself before those women.
