Betrothed To The Mafia Lord

Chapter 348

James’ pov

After that dinner with Blair, it wasn’t a shock that I was unable to get her out big my head. After the little

things we had been able to talk about, I had noted a few things about.

One; there was definitely something about her that she wasn’t letting on.

Two; she was definitely living a hard as hell life.

Three; the way she had almost wanted to drawn in alcohol, and the response she had given, indicated

that there was definitely more to her than she was letting on.

And finally, I wasn’t even sure Blair was her real name.

Of course, I had tried to make some researches, giving my men the assignment to look up anything

they could about her. Her name brought no results that was related to her, which indicates that indeed,

she had given me s fake name.

I made some one on one research around where she reside at, and the people I had questioned said

she never brings anyone home and had always kept to herself, but altogether she doesn’t return home

every night. After that whole research, I was sure of one thing, and it was that there was more to Blair

than she was letting on. I was still finding it weird that she had claimed to have no one to call, back at

the hospital.

I was definitely intrigued, but was I put off? Absolutely not. It feels like she was a cute little onions, with

a lot of wrappers, and in order to get to the actual onion, the wrappers needs to be peeled one after the

other. That was exactly how Blair feels right now, and I was very much still interested in unwrapping

her.

The fact that she had no Idea of who I was, was like the icing on the cake. I liked that she thought I was

just an arrogant Ceo or something like that, but even though it was very obvious that I was fully loaded

financially, she didn’t throw herself at me and hasn’t even entertained the thought of giving me a kiss

when I had suggested she does that in exchange for the dinner. It was all a really new experience for

me and I definitely wanted more of it, I thought to myself as I made my way into my car. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

It was a Wednesday, and Saturday seems really far, lord knew I couldn’t wait to see her again.

Luca’s POV

Wednesday were the longest days in a week and I wasn’t really fond of it, throughout the time I had

spent at the office, I had been looking forward to going home to Sofia the whole time.

As I held her against me while some quiet music played in the background, I felt so contented and

satisfied in that moment. It wasn’t long before Sofia was turning around to stare down at me. We were

currently in the indoor gym and after some push-ups, I was taking a overly long break, because Sofia

felt so good against me and because I couldn’t get enough of her.

“Remember what I told you I wanted to talk about on Monday morning, right before you had left for

work?” She asked and I let out a small hum in response.

“Do you want to talk about it right now?” I asked and sat up when I noticed the serious expression on

her face. She hesitated for a moment before nodding her head.

I watched as she reached for her phone just as I brushed her hair out of her face.

“What is it, bunny?” I asked after a few moments but she was tapping away on her phone.

“I think it would be best if I start by showing you this.” She said in a small voice as she handed her

phone to me, and as I accepted it, I glanced down at it and took in what’s on the screen. It was the

screenshot of a post on social media and a small smile tug at the side of my lips at her username.

“Hislittlebunny?” I asked with a small laugh and a small color stained her cheeks. “That’s not important

right now, the content of the post is what’s important.”

I hummed as I continued to stare down into the phone, and as I swiped sideways, I realized they were

some of her paintings which she had decided to post, and shockingly, they had generated so much

engagements. I glanced up at her with a warm smile.

“Bunny? This is all you?” I asked as I reached for her hand and tugged it towards her lips, brushing a

small kiss against the tip of her fingers as she nodded her head at me bashfully.

“That’s really huge, bunny. Really huge. You did so well, that you were able to feel confident enough to

expose your paintings to the world this way… I’m really proud of you.” I murmured and watched as a

shy smile tugged at the sides of her lips.

“Really?” She asked and I had hummed in response.

“Absolutely.”

It wasn’t long before I was tugging her in for a kiss, and long moments passed before we got back to

disgusting once again.

“So, I was wondering if you’d be okay with me expanding my arts, like way past it being just in my

studio.”

I blinked a little as her words sank into my mind, “You think that’s what you want?” I asked and she

nodded immediately.

“Why do you want it? I need to hear your reasons.”

She fidgeted a little and I caressed the hand I was still holding in reassurance. “Because… I feel like

I’ve gotten to a stage where I’m ready to expose my arts to people, where I’d get to sell them, and get

more exposed.” She paused. “Although Kayla suggested it first, after I thought of it, I realized it was

something I wanted.”

“But bunny, you know that’s going to be quite hard…”
