The Mafia Rose

Chapter 10

Luca's POV

The flight to New York was mainly making phone calls to sort out an engagement party for Dominic and his fiancee, which none of us have ever met. I had designers wanting to know every last detail from the colour scheme to the table centerpieces, I was out of my depth, where is Rachael when I need her?

"Sofia, what is the best colour scheme for an engagement party? "

She designed clothes for Vogue, this should be a walk in the park for her.

"It's Dom's party ask him?"

Ask Dom? Now is not the time for jokes, I loved my son but when it came to things like this he was very much like me.

"Just give me the phone, if she is anything like his past bimbos all she'll care about is the size of the ring".

The fact that none of use had ever met Dominic's fiancee was very unnerving, his past did only consist of women who wanted our money and to be part of a powerful family. I would never force him into a marriage, but I did know plenty of women who would be better suited to him and our family then what he would usually find himself. Not all of his choices have been bad though, one girl was perfect for him and for the family, she was beautiful, smart and knew all about our family 'business' but in true Dominic style, he fucked it up.

"Is she anything like Aurora?"

Dom gave Gio a death stare, nobody had spoken about her since their break up five years ago, nobody knew why or how they broke up not even her father when I asked him. I just guessed is was Dominic's usual case of not being able to keep it in his pants, that had always been the reason before I never thought he would have cheated on Aurora, he was in love with her, he even brought her an engagement ring.

"Dad!"

Sofia woke me from my daydream, she better not be asking me for design idea's.

"Right well there's two things... I may have invited Aurora to the engagement party tomorrow night and mum is on her flight over here but she is getting a divorce from Ben."

I didn't know what to say, I was finally going to get my wife back, I wouldn't have to behave around her no more, I could hold her, kiss her, finally show my love to her again.

"Are you okay dad?"

I had never felt better but I needed to put my emotions to one side and think about my son's.

"Why did you invite her? You know he wasn't mentioned her since they broke up."

Everyone liked Aurora, mean there was nothing you couldn't like about her but I knew deep down Dom still loved her and having her there is just going to complicate things for him.

"Mum told me to, she said if Dom's fiancee is the typical of him Aurora could be the plan B".

Yeah, if she'll take him back.

Sofia's POV

We landed in New York at 3pm, Ivan's flight landed at the same time as ours and mum was expecting to land around 6 in the evening. Flying never bothered me, I think it is because of the constant flights back and forth to Italy.

It was good to be back in New York, we had a lot of family here and being the fashion capital helped. But before I could think about anything I had one job I needed to do straight away... find a dress for tomorrow night. I needed to look my best, Ivan was going to be there and with everyone invited I had to outshine them all.

"And where do you think your going? I haven't seen you for nine hours and your just going to leave me."

A pair of strong arms wrapped around my waist and kisses were being planted on my neck. How could one man be so irresistible?
