Pregnant and Homeless✔

Chapter 49

"Niccolo," Valdo muttered.

I frowned and look at the man that entered the room. My eyes widen.

He was, without a doubt, one of the most appealing men I've ever seen. He had black hair and caramel brown eyes. He was tall, and his body was similar to that of an athlete. Everything about him screamed male model, but he gave off a dangerous vibe.

I shook my head. I should not be admiring another man in front of my husband.

Niccolo looked at Valdo, "Hello, old friend." He walked over to me and lifted my left hand and kissed it. "You must be Jakobia. Valdo and I go way back. I was sad when he didn't invite me to his wedding." he smiled, "Which is understandable, I would have stolen his wife, if  he did." I recognised his voice immediately. His Italian accent was unmatched to any of the ones I've heard before.

Valdo sighed, "What are you doing here, Niccolo?" How did Valdo know this man? Based on the conversation I overheard in the car, he didn't seem like the type of person Valdo would know, but then again, Valdo's business made him interact with people of all sorts.

Niccolo removed his attention from me and looked at Valdo, "That silly boy almost killed two Giovannis. It's not something to take lightly. Speaking about Giovannis, where are they?"

"Zuria is getting stitched up, her foot was hurt, and Alessandro is down by the Children's Ward. They're both okay." I answered.

He tilted his head and smiled at me, "Thank you." This man was no doubt, a womaniser. He was the type of man who could have any girl he wanted because he was not only handsome but incredibly charming.

He looked at Valdo, "I respect you Valdo, always have. My sources say he's your wife's ex." he glanced at me, "I'd fight for a beauty like her too." he looked back at Valdo, "I know you won't hurt the boy, it's not who you are. I can't have him putting my family in danger again so I'll deal with him, but you'll owe me one." He never allowed Valdo to respond. He winked at me then left the room.

"Who is he?" I asked.

"That's Niccolo Giovanni. He's Zuria's brother-in-law."

That made sense, "But how do you know him?" Zuria barely spoke about her family.

"Remember the mafia group I told about?"

I nod.

"Niccolo's father is the leader." my eyes widen at his words. It all made sense now. Zuria's husband was apart of the mafia, and that's why he got shot fifteen times. That's why she thought that today's attack was meant for her. That's why she was so rich. She was a member of a mafia family.

"Do you think that he's going to kill William?" I asked after a few seconds of silence.

Valdo shrugged, "Niccolo is unpredictable. We'll just have to wait and see." He walked over to me and wrapped his arms around me. "As much as I can't stand Niccolo. I'd rather do him a favour rather than have William come after you again. William is a psychopath, and he needs to be stopped."

"What if he asks you to kill someone?" I asked worriedly.

"He won't. The Giovanni Family has hundreds of men who would willingly kill for them." he rubbed my back gently, "Don't worry. Niccolo won't ask me to do anything illegal." I'm not so sure. The man was apart is a member of a mafia family, nothing about him screamed legal. Yet again, Zuria was also apart of that family, and she was one of the sweetest people I've had the pleasure of meeting. She was angry when talking to Niccolo, which could mean that she had nothing to do with the illegal side of the family.

The door was pushed open. My mother, Hannah and Kevin, walked in.

"You're okay." my mom said weakly.
