Betrothed To The Mafia Lord novel Chapter 294

Luca’s POV

“Oh, they’re around, they’re all safe. I just didn’t add any of your old stuff here because I didn’t know if you are still attached to those things the way you used to be back then.” I started to speak with a small sigh slipping out of my mouth.

“Oh, really? Wow, that’s so cool.” He breathed out in the next moment.

“Yup, it’s still here.” I said once again.

“Can I go through them tomorrow?” Ge asked as he started to make his way towards me and I nodded my head with a small chuckle.

“Of course, of course you can. They’re your stuff after all.” I said to him in the next moment.

“You’re the best, Luca.” Armani said softly as soon as he was standing before me, with a little bit of space between us and I nodded my head at him with a small lift of my shoulders.

“I really am?” I asked after a few seconds and watched as he huffed out a small breath.

“Yeah, you are. You’re the very best and I’m so glad I have you as a brother.” He finally continued.

I felt a small smile start to tug at the sides of my lips as I closed the distance between us and placed both my hands at his shoulders, and then I slowly slide my hands down to rest on his biceps.

“I’m glad I have you as a brother as well.” I started to speak, tightening my hold on his biceps in the next moment. He shrugged a little and breathed out a small chuckle.

“I don’t know what I did to deserve you but, it’s all so..,” He continued to speak after a couple of moments and I leaned towards and pulled him into my arms, wrapping my arms firmly around him in the next moment.

“You’re ok, you’re ok. I feel this exact way too. I’m so glad I can finally be able to hold you against me this way. It feels so unreal, you know? It feels unreal. Like, I had almost completely lost hope of ever being able to hold you in my arms again when I didn’t get to hear from you over the years.” I paused and breathed out a slow sigh, tightening my hold against him and feeling him do the same in the next moment.

“It wasn’t like I didn’t want to call you or something, but you warned me not to give you a call unless it was really urgent… and so, and so…” He started to speak after a couple of moments, but he ended up being unable to complete his sentence. I pulled out of the embrace after a few seconds, and then I returned back to holding him with my hands at his biceps, as I stared down at him. He wasn’t all that short than I am, but he was definitely not as tall as I am, and I still have to stare down at him the way I was doing recently. Although I don’t have to look really lower the way I do each time I was talking to Sofia, I was still looking down at him regardless.

“What is it? What were you about to say?” I asked in a slow voice as I stared down at him, narrowing my gaze at him after a fleeting moment when he obviously started to hesitate.

“Armani, you were saying something.” I pointed out and watched as he huffed out a small breath and nodded his head at me in the next moment.

“Yeah, I was.” He echoed out after a couple of moments had passed.

“Go on then, complete your sentence.” I urged when he still hesitated.

He puffed out a small sigh after a couple of moments, and also tried to get out of my grip, but I tightened my hold on his biceps instantly, knowingly as I narrowed my eyes at him.

“Armani…” I began to call our once again.
