Legacy (Lucero's Series -Book #1) {Completed}

Chapter 31

Flora frowns as she watches Lucero who checks the time on his watch before redoing his tie, she watches him check himself on the rearview mirror which irritates her.

"Are you checking if I left any marks on your neck?" she asks making him frown this time.

"Yes" he admits making her scoffs at the audacity of his.

"And before you reach to any dramatic conclusion, no I am not ashamed if you did but walking in that party and showcasing..."

"You know what, save it. You already ruined the whole damn situation by admitting you are trying to hide it" she snaps before shifting away from him in the car seat and he does not even try to pull her close which irks her even more.

"Asshole" she breaths under her breath and even if he heard he does not say much.

When the car stops Flora does not even wait for Lucero to open the door for her as she steps out and walks inside the hotel where she is sure someone will point where the party was being held.

As if the fate was pushing them together she gets the glimpse of Richie so she shouts his name startling the man who was busy talking to someone in his phone.

"Is that Alana?" she asks and even before he could confirm she takes the phone away from his hand.

"Hey, how are you?" she starts to talk on the phone before she grabs his arms and ask him to show the way.

"You should have tagged along with your husband, I cannot always keep my eyes on him, what if he slipped and someone takes him away?" she asks making Richie sighs as he tries to take the phone away.

"I know right? But anyways please try to accompany him whenever, because I get bored in these sorts of meetings also how are the boys?

We should totally set my kids up with yours, after all they will all need to get along if they want to survive this hell...

Uh-huh, sure...aww I would love to come visit but...well it all depends on my mood anyways, okay bye you take care and don't worry I won't leave Richie's side" she promises before handing him the phone.

"Tell her you love her" she orders and Richie raises an amused brow her way.

"Of course, Flora. I totally would have forgotten if it was not for you" he sighs before he talks to his wife and says her loves her and the kids.

"Aww, someone is in love" she coos pushing him with her side.

"Why are you following me?" he asks as he puts his phone away and she jumps to wrap her arm around his.

"Take me to the party" she states making him frown.

"Party? Where's your husband?" he asks looking around.

"Left him" she states and he does not ask any further as they make their way towards the hall.

"Oh, there comes my Princess and her Prince" Salvatore exclaims as he gets sight of Flora but the smile on his face whips seeing her walking with Richie not Leon.

"Yes, here I come. Hail for the Princess" she mutters as she walks to where her father was.

"Russo" Salvatore acknowledges as he pulls his daughter to his side not to gently.

"Mr. Salvatore" he nods his head at the man as none of them volunteer to shake their hands.

"I see Donovan sent you on his behalf" he points staring at Russo.

"As you have been notified, I will be helping him around"

"Yes, but when Donovan informed he will not be able to attend the seminar I thought Alana will be taking over"
