Sarah Jane Reyes's POV

''What is this, are you kidnapping children now?''. I heard voices coming from my left side and right side, their voices were deep and masculine which means that there were two people with me and to be precise there are two man with me but that doesn't matter at the moment what truly matters is the person that I just saw a while ago. Luca Vitiello one of the main characters in Cora Reily's book which was the Mafia Chronicles how do I know it's him well the way the book describes his appearance was actually easy to imagine him. He had tanned skin which fits him, he had  black hair just like mine, his height was 6'5 from what my best friend told me. Gray eyes, like morning fog on ancient moors, Veil the soul in mystery, soft and ethereal. They harbor the moon's secrets, whispered across eons, etching stardust on their irises, ok what  in the world is wrong with me? I'm suddenly becoming a poet out of no reason well it looks like I'm becoming like Alisha when she's describing her favourite characters in the books just like me she also read books that contains smuts which she obviously like while I don't even make a comment about it and sometimes I bash the book, but what can you do I guess people have different taste when it comes to books I mean don't get me wrong I also like part of the smuts but not that much anyway let's go back to Luca.

His personality is infamously a brutal and hardened man who enjoys  killing since he was raised in the mafia and taught to be cruel by his abusive father, he does holds a few morals even though his father taught him by example that wives and children are to be beaten which he hates the idea beating a helpless woman nor children which I have to admit that he still have a soft stop in his heart so credits for that. He also despise rape and sexual assault and said in the narration it's one of the few despicable crime he's not guilty of. But eventually he got engaged to Aria Scuderi who was the daughter of the consigliere of the Outfit which is the mafia in Chicago, he got engaged when he was 20 years old while Aria was only fifteen at that time, they got married when she turned 18 and Luca was 23. So basically they have 5 years age gap. Thinking about it now I remember reading it at the first time I was completely shock because at that time my mind was blown apart when I first reading  that line I even have a funny argument with Alisha saying that this book should be be illegal like come on who in the world would be engaged at the of 15 who tell me who? probably rich people but still after I said to Alisha we basically bullied each other in a funny way not the harsh one ok it just how we show our affection for each other that's all which takes me back to good old memories uhm.

''No I didn't kidnapped her, she passed out''. Argued the other one who in my left side which in my guess was Luca and probably Matteo was the person on my right. I was already awake I just didn't want to open eyes and since I would be in a awkward situation so let's just eavesdrop for now. ''Ohh so your being soft now huh, who would have taught the 'Vice' has soft stop for little girls''. Matteo teased with that kinda annoying voice of his , I can't believe Luca has all the patient not to punch his brother if this was me I would have aim in his face. ''I don't have a soft stop ok , what do you want me to do instead? Leave her laying on the streets''. Luca pointed it out as his voice raised a little but he stop I guess he realised that there was child laying unconscious in a bed.

''How old do you think she is?''. Matteo asked.

''Don't know probably 5 or 6''. Luca answered but what the hell I'm seventeen bro .... ok scratch that I'm 10 years old, judging by my situation I'm inside a book that I was just reading this night or probably yesterday night ok I don't know anymore but what I do know is that I'm stuck in a book that I was reading all alone without  my family or friends. I'm just all by myself and to be honest it's kinda scary and to add everything , I'm inside a room with two dangerous mafia man not the most dangerous since I actually don't know who's the most dangerous of them all nor do I know which mafia is the best or dangerous one. If I ask my best friend she'll probably answer the Camorra or the Famiglia since she's so obsess with them especially to Luca Vitiello and Fabiano Scuderi which is Aria's little brother.
