Mafia love

Chapter 33

I wake up and see Rosa fast asleep in her cot next to us. "She's beautiful." Ezra whispers from behind me. I hum and turn to Ezra. "Last night was eventful." I sigh. "It won't happen again Tesoro, I promise." He reassures me.

"We can't afford to have nights like that, not with Rosa in the house." I state. I watch his hand move to my face and move my hair behind my ear. We wrap our arms around of each other and hug until Rosa wakes up.

When her cries fill the room Ezra walks round the bed to where she is and cradles her. I sit up and open my arms. When she is in my arms she makes no mistake in latching on and eating breakfast. Once she has taken her pick she is handed to her dad. I watch him as he carefully burps her. He's so gentle.

I stand up out of bed and realise the blood bath in the sheets. "Shit." I whisper under my breath. "It's okay." I hear Ezra say as he places a kiss on the back of my head. "Baby, the mattress will be ruined." I start to cry.

"We will buy another one." He shrugs whilst rubbing his spare hand up and down my back. I cry into his chest as he holds me and Rosa. His girls.

"It's embarrassing." I sob. "Why is embarrassing amore? You have just had a baby, our baby. Your body is repairing itself." Ezra explains. "But whilst I'm repairing, I'm ruining everything!" I shout annoyed with myself.

"I would rather everything be ruined, then you not being able to recover. Everything here but you and Rosa is replaceable." He assures me. "Your not replaceable Ezra Coppola." I sob harder into his chest. He allows me to break down uncontrollably whilst safely holding our daughter.

I pull away from the hug and kiss him and kiss our daughters head in his arms. "I'm going to have a quick shower." I say. "Take as long as you need I will look after Rosa." He replies smiling. I head to the bathroom and shower.

I really don't deserve this man.

Once I'm finished in the shower and fully clothed I head downstairs. I walk to Ezra's office, I knock on his door. "Come in." He beckons. I walk in and see Rosa asleep in his arms. "You don't have to knock you know." He states. I nod and walk towards them.

"Have you even done any work with her in your arms?" I ask laughing. "No." He laughs. I extend my arms and Ezra passes me Rosa. "She's so soft, and precious." Ezra says softly. "Delicate." I reply.

"The new mattress will be here in about half an hour Tesoro." Ezra smiles as he stands up. He walks round to stand behind me and he places his head on my shoulder and his hands on my belly. He pulls me close and watches Rosa from my shoulder. "I love you, my beautiful wife." He says before leaving a kiss on my cheek.

"I love you more." I reply resting my head on his. "Sulla Luna e ritorno." (To the moon and back) Ezra whispers.

It's been 3 years.

Rosa is running around the house all the time. Today she isn't listening. "Rosa!" I shout running after her. She giggles and carries on running thinking it's a game.

You might be wondering, why can't I keep up with a three year old. I'm currently 7 months pregnant with twin girls. "Quick mummy!" She screams playfully.

There are important men in the house today. We are closing a deal to become the deadliest mafia. I was in the meeting last week but I wanted to spend some time with Rosa today. "Rosa, get back here!" I say out of breath. She runs to Ezra's office door. Before I can turn the corner the door is swung open.

"Daddy!" She squeals running up to him. He opens his arms as she runs into them. She sits on his lap as I walk through the door. The room is full of men and a couple of women. Rosa is sat there with a smug smirk on her face. "È una Bella bambina." (She's a pretty child) One of the mens wife says.
