Betrothed To The Mafia Lord novel Chapter 330

Luca’s POV

I had headed to the club tonight, although knowing it was dangerous, more dangerous than what usually goes down in my clubs back in Italy – but I hadn’t expected a fight as heated as that to break lose. Thanks to Sofia who had alerted me when she had done.

I tugged her against me and stroked her hair, and then I thumbed her cheek after a moment. She was blinking up at me, and even though she had said she was okay na m st the club, I knew she wasn’t, I could feel just how fast her heart was still racing right now.

“How did you notice the gun being pointed at the table we were situated at?” I asked her after a moment.

“Oh, that was because I was bored and was just staring around, and then I noticed it.” She responded and I stroked her cheeks some more.

“Those people were assassins, bunny.”

“Really?” She asked as she blinked up at me and I hummed. “Yes, bunny. And assassins are really dangerous people, they’re trained to kill and they’re very good st it. I’m so impressed that you were able to see the gun when you did.”

She grinned a little at the praise and I felt my chest ache a little.

“That was very brave of you, and you took everything so well.” I paused and tugged her over me until she was straddling mr, here in the backseat of the moving car. She leaned into my chest and let out a small sigh as I continued. “I know all what you saw tonight won’t be leaving you anytime soon, and I wished you hadn’t seen some of the things you had seen.”

She sat up at that. “Are you referring to those girls being used against their will?” She asked in a small voice and I winced a little as I nodded.

“That’s one of the numerous things I wished you hadn’t seen.” I responded and then I tugged her back down.

“I felt so bad for those girls, why are they living like that?” She mumbled after a few moments and I grimaced and wondered about how I was going to go about explaining to her that done mafia lords still owns sex slaves in this modern age.

“You see, that’s a little bit complicated. They were definitely kidnapped and sold in the blank market to people who became their owners.” I finally spoke and she sat back up to regard me with wide blown eyes.

“Humans can be sold?” She asked in a small voice and I felt my heart squeeze at how innocent she was. I bet she had no idea of just how cruel men can be, it’s exactly why I wanted to shield her away from all of these.

I nodded my head. “Yeah, in the black market.”

“What’s a black market?” She asked next and I hummed and tugged her down against me.

“I don’t think you should know that, bunny.” I finally murmured as I stroked my fingers through her hair. She remained silent after that.

“I wish… I wish girls didn’t have to go through so much pain in life,” Her voice was soft when she spoke after some time.

“There’s so much suffering in the world and women are dominating the percentage.” She glanced up at me after that. “I’m not wrong, right?”
