1. Wife Of A Mafia Boss✔️

Chapter 12

Tony

I looked down at the sleeping blonde beauty beside me. She looked at peace. I kissed her forehead and got out of bed. I took a quick shower and made my way downstairs.

I walked into the dining area, just in time to see my kitchen staff setting up the table for breakfast. They each gave me a welcoming smile and continued to set up the table. I walked into the spacious kitchen.

Camilla was flipping pancakes, while Aria was wiping down counters. Aria froze once she noticed my presence.

"Tony, is it true? Is Valeria back?", she said excitedly.
"Yes, she is. But I don't think it's a good idea for you two to hang out."
"Why not?"
"Because you're messy, Aria. You meddle in people's lives. You've used sensitive information about people against them."
"It's not your call to decide who Valeria associates with."
"She's right."

We turned to see Valeria behind us. She was in a silk tank top and a pair of my gym shorts.

"Valeria!"

They ran and hugged each other tightly.

"Oh, I've missed you. You have no idea how hard it's been without someone to talk to other than my Abuela. Oh my god, your hair! I love it! We have so much to catch up on."
"Thanks and I miss you too, but I'm only back now until I figure out my next move."
"Next move?", I asked curiously.

She turned to me.

"Tony, Did you think that I would stay here forever?"
"Why not? Why would you want to leave? Especially after last night. I can protect you and take care of you here."
"Tony, can we talk about this later?"

I nodded and wrapped my arms around her. I kissed her cheek as she bit her lip.

"Okay, lovebirds, time for breakfast."

Valeria giggled and pulled me to the dining table. The rest of my men and cleaning staff, along with Camilla and Aria, filled in the table beside us.

I could feel eyes on Valeria and me, but I ignored them. All I could think about was Valeria.

I don't want her to leave again. I thought we could finally be happy.

"Tony."

I looked at Valeria, who was smiling beside me.

"You kinda zoned out there."
"Sorry. Were you saying something?"
"I was just wondering if it would be okay if Aria and I went to the mall for a bit. I only have one dress left and your shorts are really big for me."

I chuckled.

"Or I could have clothes dropped off here for you."
"Tony, I haven't been shopping on my own since I married Alexei. I finally have the freedom to do anything I want."
"I know, but I just d-"
"I promise we're going to come back and you probably have work to do."
"Okay.", I said before kissing her.

Giovanni cleared his throat.

"Some people are trying to eat."

Valeria blushed as laughter filled the dining room.

After breakfast, I watched Valeria change into a tight dress and boots.

"You sure you don't want to wear my shorts?"
"What's wrong with my dress?"
"Nothing's wrong with it. It's just that I can see...everything."
"Yeah, so?"
"I want to be the only one who gets to see everything."

She giggled and kissed me on the cheek.  She bent over to grab her bag and her dress rose, revealing her rosy cheeks.

"Where is your underwear?"
"Forgot to pack them."

I got off of bed and went to my underwear drawer. I pulled out a pair of boxers.

"Put these on."
"Really?"

I nodded and she took them.  She slid them on slowly, her eyes never leaving mine.

"Hurry back."
"I will."

She wrapped her arms around me, pulling my face down to meet hers. 

"I love you."
"Love you too."

Her mouth slowly found mine and we were soon entangled in each other. I reached under her dress and grabbed her. Moans escaped from her lips.

"If you two are done, I'm ready to go."

I looked past Valeria to see Aria standing at the door.

"Sorry. I'll be downstairs in a minute."

Valeria pulled away from me and grabbed her bag off the floor. She counted some money and then placed it in her purse.

"No, take my card. Let me pay for the clothes."
"Thank you, but I can pay for myself."
"I can take care of you. Let me pay."
"I don't want to argue."

I dropped it and kissed her forehead.

"I'll see you when you get back."

She kissed my cheek and left.

What is she doing to me? I want to be with her at all times.

"Can I talk to you?"

I turned to see Giovanni.

"What's this about?"
"I wanted to apologize. I shouldn't have judged Valeria before. I didn't realize how deep your feelings were for each other."
"It's fine."
"She knows about me and my family. She knows my brother, Victor. He told her that I'm a traitor and betrayed my family."
"Victor? That's the guy who broke into my house with Alexei and took Valeria."
"He's been brainwashed by Alexei. He can't see that what he's doing is wrong. Alexei kills the innocent. He tortures people for the hell of it."
"Well, you made the right choice coming to me. Now come on, we have a meeting to attend."

Valeria

After a long day of shopping, Aria and I finally returned home.

"I'll come to your room as soon as I drop these bags off."
"Okay."

I made my way to Tony's room and sat the bags on the bed.

"Tony?"

No answer. He might be downstairs.

I walked out of the room, made my way toward the stairs, and accidentally ran into Giovanni.

"Sorry, I didn't see you."
"It's fine. I wasn't paying attention."
"Have you seen Tony?"
"He's not in his room?"

I shook his head.

"He's somewhere around here. Our meeting ended hours ago. He might still be in the basement."

I began heading towards the basement.

I walked down the basement stairs and opened the door. What I saw made me stop in my tracks.

Tony was on the ground, shot, and a man was standing over him with a gun pointed at him.
