LUCI'S POV
*In Italy*

This place.. It's beautiful!

We got off the plane and it was like I stepped into heaven.

Since I was acting like a "brat" my dad let Ben and I take a little trip.

What better trip then Italy! The home of Ben, and pizza!

After an SUV picked us up from the airport, we were taken to the Valesquez estate.

Aka The HOME of Ben!

I'm I excited?? Very!

Am I also terrified? Yes, very.

If I say the wrong thing it could very well get me killed.

I just hope everything's chill here, because back at home.. It's not.

"What the hell do you mean you're pregnant!" Veronica yells.

I was able to remember their names and faces, which makes things wayyy less awkward.

We don't have to do introductions!

Lilah blinks at her.

Probably wondering if she should yell back.

"I'm home." Ben interrupts.

Lilah and Veronica's necks snap towards us. If they moved any faster they might have actually broken their necks.

"Ben!" They both yell, running over and hugging him.

"I want to know everything that happened in the past however long we haven't seen each other." Veronica pulls him away.

Lilah stands there smiling at me.

"Nice to see you again Luci." She hugs me.

She's very warm.

"I heard you spoke with Kai Meyora as of recently. Do you think you can do me a favor?.." She whispers as we hug.

"No. She can't." Elijah pulls her off me.

"Dis you already forget what we just discussed?" Elijah asks her.

"No.. I just wanted to see if after I have the baby if I could join." She mumbled.

"No. You'll be too busy." He tells her.

"Doing what?" She crossed her arms.

"Being a mother." He says in a "duh" kind of tone. "I'm sorry Luci, just ignore her. Especially if she talks about FEM." Elijah tells me and I nod.

"Why don't you show her to where she's sleeping. And please don't talk about female fatales with Luci." Elijah tell her, he hands on her shoulders.

"Fine." She sighs.

He kisses the top of her head before going to take a call.

"Follow me." She smiles before walking to the left.

I follow her and she takes me so a long hallway like 4 minutes away from the foyer. This house is really big.
