Betrothed To The Mafia Lord

Chapter 291

Luca’s POV

“Thank you, Sarah.” Armani said to Sarah with a warm smile playing across his lips as soon as Sarah

set his plate before him, a few moments ago. Sarah smoke back at him instantly and whispered

something to him and after caffe more seconds, she was heading out of the dining room and closing

the door behind her. Sofia was sitting at my right hand side and Armani was sitting directly before her,

at the other side of the table, the exact spot where James had sat in, some days ago when he had

come over to do something with me and had decided to stay back for dinner.

We all started to eat after a few moments and my eyes kept straying back to Sofia every few minutes,

but nothing seemed to be off around her, she seemed to be doing just fine and she was also eating her

food just fine. There wasn’t a lot of conversation going around the three of us who were currently sitting

around the table, which was pretty fine by me.

The quiet was also very good, it made more room in my head for me to be able to cradle my thoughts

against my insides without it being disrupted by something someone might be saying to me or around

me assuming a conversation was currently flying around.

“Have you registered your new number yet?” I asked Armani after a few seconds and I watched as he

shrugged his shoulders and started to shake his head at me almost immediately, right before he started

to speak.

“No, not yet. I think I’ll stay up a little to be able to do that tonight.”

“Hm.” I hummed a little as I nodded my head once, and I glanced back at Sofia after a few seconds. It

didn’t matter that all she was doing was atering pointedly at her food and slowly inserting each spoon of

food into her mouth. I still found what she was currently doing so damn mesmerizing that I just couldn’t

help but keep looking at her every few minutes.

“Do you have any friends that know you’re coming over to Italy today?” I asked as soon as I had

averted my face from Sofia’s face to settle it on Armani’s.

I watched as Armani shrugged his shoulders a little, right before he started to speak.

“Well, not really.” He finally responded.

“No one?” I asked after a couple of moments, narrowing my eyes at him a little. He nodded his head

after a few moments, still staring pointedly at his food.

“Yeah, no one.” He finally echoed out.

“Ok, that’s good then.” I breathed out after a couple of moments.

“We’ll talk a lot more about more of this tomorrow. Alright?” I said to him after a couple of moments had

passed and I watched as Armani started to nod his head in the next moment, as he moved a little in his

seat.

“Yeah, alright.”

“Did you come with anything?” I asked him after some time as I inserted a forkful of food into my mouth Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

and chewed on the softness of the food really slowly, trying to savor the food really well.

“No, I didn’t. You asked me not to, remember?” Armani started to speak after some time and I breathed

out a deep breath and returned my fork back to my plate.

“Oh yeah, I really did.” I finally started to speak, nodding my head a little right before I continued.

“I’ll have to find you stuff in which you can sleep in, and what you can dress in tomorrow. You’d have to

go shopping for some things tomorrow or the day after.” I paused and dragged a deep breath into my

lungs.

“Would I go outside? Like to the mall? I thought you said I was going to stay completely indoors for my

own safety…?” Armani asked after a few moments, blinking at me confusingly.

“You might not, it could be easily sent to one of the guards and that’s that, I don’t think you’d have to go

outside one bit.” I finally responded to him.

“That’s all good then.” Armani finally spoke after a few minutes and I hummed a little without saying a

thing. I glanced at Sofia to find her still engrossed with staring down at her food. At this point, she

wasn’t even eating anymore, she was just staring blankly at it without doing a thing.

I puffed out a deep breath and glanced up at Armani who was busy staring at something on his phone,

and as soon as I was sure that he wasn’t staring at me in that moment, I sat up and puffed out a low

deep breath, and then I stretched my hand out and placed it on top Sofia‘s thighs after a few moments.

I felt her jolt instantly, as soon as I placed my hand on her bare thigh firmly. I puffed out a low hum and

stared at her pointedly when she turned her head around to stare at me instantly.

I tightened my hold on her bare thigh really slowly, with our eyes locked together and I watched as she

puffed out a slow breath and sat up almost immediately. Her eyes dropped to stare at my hand gripping

her bare thigh for a moment right before she averted her gaze and puffed out a slow breath. After a

fleeting moment, her eyes were lifting off the table to flicker towards Armani who was still checking out

something on his phone.

I gave her another knowing, pointed look as I tightened my hold on her thigh and started to knead on

the silk ness of her bare thigh. She breathed out a slow breath and fluttered her eyes a little, and her

hand was reaching down to grab at my wrist in the next moment.

I stared at her for a while longer, wondering if she wanted me to stop or not. I couldn’t ask her that at

this very moment because of the extra person who’s sitting right here, but then I couldn’t bring myself

to continue to do something to her that she might not like. And so, I decided to retrieve my hand back

to myself. The only thing was that, as soon as I had started to tug my hand off her tight, her grip around

my wrist tightened in the next moment, preventing me from going any further in that moment.

I stared at her pointedly at that, chewing on my lower lips a little as I stared at her pointedly for a while

longer. She squirmed a little, and ducked her head in the next second.

“Sofia… are you alright?” I asked her audibly after some moments and I watched as she instantly lifted

her head up and started to nod her head at me, her hand back to gripping her spoon really firmly once

again.

“Uh, yeah. I am.” She reasoned, swallowing down emptily as she started to nod her head. She reached

for her glass of drink and lifted it to her lips, taking a few sips of it– and I decided to start to move the

tips of my fingers a little against the inside of her thighs. She choked a little in the next moment and

was returning the glass of drink back to the table, refusing to glance at me as she tried to get her little

coughing fits under control.

“Are you alright?” Armani was the one to speak to this time, and I noticed that there was a little bit of

worry painted out on his face.

Sofia started to nod her head in response in the next moment as she moved around in her seat a little,

right before she started to speak. “Yeah, I am.”

And after a few moments had passed, Sofia decided to add a quiet ‘thank you’ to him, and he

reassured her about it being nothing.

We were all finally done eating after a while, and I noticed that we had all been unable to eat all the

content on our plates, well, except Armani. He cleared off his plate completely and was currently

leaning back against the backrest of his seat, as he dragged a deep breath into his longs every few

seconds.

“Oh my, I’ve missed this so much.” Armani was the one go break the silence with those few words or

his and I felt myself twisting my lips around the corners of my mouth a little, as I flickered my gaze

sideways until I was staring at him.

“Miss what? The food?” I asked him after a couple of moments.

“Damn right, yeah. I’ve missed it so much. I had no idea I had missed it this much until tonight.” Armani

started to speak almost immediately, and he paused for a bit before continuing.

“You know, because it’s been really long since I had this, it kind of completely skipped my brain. But it’s

sooooo good,” He trailed off and stared down at his empty plate for a moment before flicking his gaze

back to my face, and then he continued. “Sarah is such a good cook.” He finally concluded.

“Sarah didn’t make that though, it’s all Matilda.” Sofia supplied a fleeting moment later and my head

and Armani’s all turned around to stare at her at the same time.
