Bound By Circumstance: The Mafia's Innocent Bride
Guarded Love
Welcome back lovely readers 😁
After talking with her friends, Emma went to her grandparents' room to inform them of her friends' upcoming arrival.
She was so happy that it was evident in her shining eyes and glowing face.
At that time, Luca came home, his irritation evident. But when he saw Emma’s smiling and happy face, his coldness melted like ice.
Emma Smith (FL)
(smiling brightly) Welcome home.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(stunned)
Luca's heart skipped a beat. He desperately wanted to pull Emma into his arms and kiss her deeply. This was what he wanted—a "home."
Fl Grandma
(teasingly) Oh, look who’s back! Our grumpy bear has returned.
FL Grandpa
(laughing) Maybe Emma’s smile will turn that grumpiness into sunshine.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(smiling faintly) Good to be home.
Emma Smith (FL)
(excitedly) Guess what? Anamika and Melina are coming to Italy! They’ll be here for a few months for a camp, and I’m so excited 😊😆
Fl Grandma
(Clapping her hands) That’s wonderful news, dear! You’ll have your friends here with you.
FL Grandpa
(jokingly) More people to keep an eye on you, Luca. Better watch out.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(chuckling) I’m happy for you, Emma.
Emma Smith (FL)
(biting her lip) Luca, I was wondering... Could you help me arrange a hotel for them? I don’t know the area well, and I want to make sure they’re comfortable.
Luca's smile faltered slightly. He felt a twinge of jealousy. Emma's happiness was because of her friends, not him.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(trying to hide his jealousy) Of course, I’ll take care of it. Anything for you.
Fl Grandma
(noticing Luca's mood) Oh, don’t worry, Luca. You’re still the apple of her eye. No one’s stealing your thunder.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(shocked) *This old lady is dangerous*
FL Grandpa
(winking) Remember, a rolling stone gathers no moss. Don’t let your jealousy gather too much
Emma Smith (FL)
(laughing) Thank you, Luca. I really appreciate it.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(forcing a smile) No problem. I’ll make sure they have the best place to stay
Fl Grandma
(changing the topic) So, what’s for dinner? I’m starving.
FL Grandpa
(teasingly) Ah, the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. And I’m a man with a big heart
They all laughed, the light-hearted banter easing the tension. Luca, though still feeling a bit jealous, couldn’t help but be charmed by Emma’s joy.
He vowed to himself to do whatever it took to make her happy, even if it meant sharing her attention with her friends.
Later that evening, Luca called his assistant to arrange a luxurious hotel for Emma’s friends, ensuring every detail was perfect
Luca Moretti (ML)
Make sure they feel comfortable and protect them (cold tone)
As he hung up, he couldn’t shake off the nagging feeling of jealousy but resolved to prove to Emma that he could be her source of happiness too
Luca’s thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. He was sitting in his study room, catching up on office work.
Luca Moretti (ML)
Accedere. (cold tone)
(Enter)
Emma Smith (FL)
(entered the room) Hi, Busy?
Luca Moretti (ML)
Not for you. Come in. (with a smile)
As she walked in, Luca glanced at her from top to bottom. She was in her nightdress, clearly ready for bed, but she had no idea how much it affected Luca.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(gulp) *control Fuçkér*
Emma Smith (FL)
(looking at him with innocent dove eyes)
Luca Moretti (ML)
(thinking to himself) God, this woman doesn’t know what she’s doing to me.
Emma Smith (FL)
(touching his forehead) Are you okay?
Luca Moretti (ML)
(flinching slightly) Y-yeah.
Emma Smith (FL)
(worried) You look red.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(holding her hand and pulling her onto his lap) Now, why are you here at this time? Miss me? (husky voice)
Emma Smith (FL)
(sitting on his lap with red cheeks)
Emma Smith (FL)
(shivering) I-I wa-
She couldn't finish her sentence. His presence and their position were overwhelming, and she knew very well how much Luca's touch affected her.
Emma Smith (FL)
(trying to steady herself) I wanted to talk to you about the camp. My friends and I are planning to join it for a few months.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(sighing) I don't like the idea of you going out. It’s dangerous.
Emma Smith (FL)
(firmly) Luca, I love this job. It’s a part of who I am. I can't let anyone control my work, not even you.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(softening) I understand. Just promise me you'll be safe. Always go with a guard.
Emma Smith (FL)
(smiling) I promise.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(kissing her forehead) That’s all I need to hear.
The tension eased, and a comfortable silence enveloped them. Luca gently tilted her chin up and looked into her eyes, his gaze softening with affection.
Luca Moretti (ML)
You drive me crazy, you know that?
Emma Smith (FL)
(blushing) And you drive me crazy too, in ways I never thought possible
Luca Moretti (ML)
(leaning closer) Then let’s be crazy together.
He kissed her softly, the world outside their little bubble fading away
Emma’s heart raced, but she felt safe in his arms. Luca, for the first time in a long while, felt a sense of peace and completeness with Emma close to him.
Emma Smith (FL)
(breaking the kiss) I should go to bed.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(grinning) Stay a little longer.
Emma Smith (FL)
(giggling) Okay, but just for a while.
They sat in silence for a bit, simply enjoying each other’s presence. Luca knew he had to trust Emma and give her the freedom she needed, even if it meant battling his own fears.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(hug her tightly and bury his face on her chest)
Emma, on the other hand, felt a growing sense of security with Luca, despite the chaotic world he was part of.
Emma Smith (FL)
(caressing his hair and kissing his head)
As the night grew deeper, their bond grew stronger, cemented by trust and understanding. For Luca, Emma was his anchor, and for Emma, Luca was becoming her safe haven amidst the storm.
