Sofia’s pov
I wasn’t the only female around the table right now, there were a few other women sitting beside who
I’d presume as their husbands, and I instantly noticed that they were older than I am. They kept
regarding me with unreadable expression and as expected, i acted like I couldn’t feel their eyes on me.
I noticed when one of the men offered a cigarette to Luca which he declined, and almost immediately,
he was offered something that was wrapped in brown paper that I knew produced smoke as well. Luca
accepted it but didn’t lit it. He was offered drink which he accepted and cradled in his hand, but I was
very sure he wasn’t going to be tasting it.
After that, all the men around the table fell into a conversation that I wouldn’t even be able to
understand why if i had paid all my attention to it, all I knew was that they were talking about some
wears and other things which I didn’t waste time in tuning out. I glanced around after that I was quick to
avert my gaze from a scene where a man was literally fucking into the throat of a girl like he wanted to
drill a hole into her throat. To think I used to think Luca has been fucking my throat hardball these while,
not knowing that he had been doing nothing but child’s play to me.
When I glanced bsck at the table, I noticed two of the men sitting exactly opposite me staring atvme
pointedly, and after s few moments, I noticed that they were staring at the exposed part of my
cleavage, which made me irritated, but of course, I tried not to let any emotion on my face. It was as if
Luca had noticed because in the next moment, the men who had once been ogling me both averted
their gazes At once – and that was when I noticed had glanced at them, probably in warning.
I was starting to get bored after a little while. To think I’ve been looking forward to go to a club after
reading about it in books, not knowing that it was like this. After getting this kind of first hand
experience, I wasn’t sure I’d ever want to go to a club ever again, I thought to myself as I pushed my
hair out of my face.
“Would you like to play?” The man on my left side asked and I regarded the cheeseboard he was
referring to. I knew how to play cheese, but Luca has asked me not to do anything nor to respond to
anyone, and so I remained silent and said nothing. The man probably took my silence as a response
and didn’t push further. He smelled so much of smoke, that my nose had instantly gotten used to the
smell of cigarettes from the little time I had spent in here so far.
After some time, I noticed that they were all staring at me and saying somethings, and as they spoke,
they kept referring to me as ‘queen’, I wasn’t sure of what to make of that, and so I kept at a part of my
mind, promising myself that I was going to ask Luca what it meant once we were out of here.
Some of the men around the table kept betting and playing their board games as they talked, and they
kept throwing back their alcohol like it was water or something. Another man offered me a drink this
time but I remained silent until he threw the drink back in one go without looking unfazed by my silence,
they were all taking it like it was a normal thing for them to be ignored by a mafia’s lord wife – I was
definitely going to ask Luca about that later as well.
I lost myself to glancing around once again, because I was feeling bored as hell, and that was when I
noticed something really weird. The weird part wasn’t the girl who was grinding all over the boy in a sort
of lap dance – I’ve seen different things tonight that made a girl giving a man lap dance like nothing to
me, so that was definitely not the weird thing. The weird thing was the fact that the man who was being
danced on– had a gun
That was a normality for men in the mafia, to always be with a gun, so that also wasn’t weird. What was
weird and unusual, was the fact that the gun was currently being pointed here at the table that what
seemed like the most powerful men here in this room were all gathered around.
What made me do what I did next wasn’t because I was suddenly worried about everyone here around
the table, because I was sure they were all bad people and so they were none of my concern. My main
concern was Luca– because it had seemed like the man who was being danced on, was pointing the
gun at Luca.
I threw myself into his side without thinking and spoke into his ear really fast, as my heart pounded
hard against my chest.
“There’s- there’s someone here, pointing a gun at this table, at- at you.”
There were displeased grunts around the table but I tuned them out because Luca was responding to
me immediately.
“Are you sure?” He had asked and I nodded my head instantly.
“Which table? And which person?” He had asked next.
“You should learn to control your Queen, Mr. Ricci.” One of the men spoke and another one followed
instantly.
“Yes, because that was really rude of your Queen.” NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
A few more people made more similar comments but Luca said nothing as he slowly got to his feet,
while my heart got lodged in my throat.
In the next moment, Luca was pulling out his gun– and in the blink of an eye, every men around the
table were pulling out their guns and pointing it at Luca, to my utmost horror..
