Love vs. Law

Chapter 9

"Cute home." Paul commented as we parked
"Shut up. Enough calling everything cute." I said getting out and slamming the door
"Well look at who it is." My brother said from trimming the tree out front
"Hi Ben." I said with a small wave as I felt Lucas presence
"This your husband mom and JJ have been talking about?" He asked wiping his hands on his jeans to shake his hand
"Luca." He said nicely
"Ben." He smiled
"Is your friend going to join us?" He asked seeing Paul in the car
"No. He has some business calls to take care of." Luca said as Ben nodded
"Mom wants to see you. The whole town knows you back." He said wrapping and arm around me a guiding me inside
"Get off me you smell Ben." I said fighting him away as he continued to hold me close with a tight grip
"I know who he is." He whispered finally let me go
"Say it louder why dont you Ben." I demanded stopping on the porch
"Just get inside the house Carrie." He said as I walked by him and slammed the door open
"Luca is not in the mafia god damnit." I said yelling as I walked in
"Keep your voice down. The youngest are still sleeping." Ben said putting a hand over my mouth as my self defense kicked in and had him pinned to the ground
"Dont ever touch me again." I said as he tapped out and I refused to let him up
"Alright bello thats enough." Luca said pulling me off of him
"Sorry. I was panicking from bad memories." I said helping Ben up
"What kindof bad memories?" My mom asked with JJ behind her limping in
"Austin memories." I sighed as Luca pulled me closer to him to protect me
"Explain." JJ said sitting on the couch
"He use to beat me when ever we were alone. At first I forgave him but it kept happening. I broke up with him before NYU but he followed me there. The night I met Luca he was about to ummm......" I started to say but stopped
"He was going to rape her. I got there just in time. She disappeared because of him and I payed him off to never come back to New York if she never came back here. We came back today just to see her dads grave." Luca said for me
"And the MMA moves?" Ben asked scratching his head
"Luca put me in self defense training in case he came back but he never did. Sorry Ben it scared me." I said as he nodded
"So you are here to see dad?" JJ questioned
"Ya. I will try to come back more." I said looking around noticing nothing has changed
"Where are the baby pictures?" Luca asked laughing
"I have a whole book." My mom said smiling as she went and got it off a bookshelf
"Mom no. We have a plane to catch." I said panicking
"Babe its our plane. It takes off when ever we want it to. Now lets see what you looked like growing up." He said smiling
"You own a plane?" A sleepy unfamiliar young voice said
"Carrie meet your niece Becca." Ben smiled picking her up
"My husband's business does I dont." I laughed going over to her and Ben
"Im Becca." She said before hiding her face into Bens neck
"Im Carrie your daddies youngest sister." I smiled seeing the Jareau blue eyes as she peeked at me
"Daddy has three sisters." She said timidly
"Ya and he is your uncle Luca. He is very ticklish." I said getting her to gasp and wiggle out of Bens arms running over to Luca and tickling him making him laugh and pick her up and start tickling her
"Are you going to have kids?" My mom asked coming over to me
"Ya. I stopped taking the pill. We are officially going to start trying." I smiled
"Please bring them around to know me and their family." She said before going back over to Luca who was sitting and looking at pictures with Becca on his lap
"I see you are here." Will said walking down with Michael
"Ya. Came to see my dad. We leave later today for a mini vacation." I said shrugging and going to the kitchen for coffee
"Where you going?" He asked following me and getting a sippy cup of milk for him
"Bora Bora." I said as my mom gasped
"You are going to Bora Bora!" She said coming in
"Ya. Its one of my favorite places." I shrugged like its no big deal
"Places?" She asked
"I like Tahiti and Rome too." I said taking a sip of coffee
"So this is what you do now travel?" She asked
"No I run all of Lucas clubs in New York and he does the hotels." I said stirring in more sugar
"How many clubs?" Will asked
"Two and three hotels. One in New York, one in Miami and another in Italy." I said smiling seeing Luca walk in carrying Becca
"Babe I got a text from Marco we need to go back to New York." He said as my faced dropped
"Ok." I said looking at my family
"What happened in New York?" JJ asked curiously
"My sister got in an accident and is going into surgery." He said as I looked at him nervous
"Bello its going to be ok." He said as he hugged me
"We need to go." I said quickly giving everyone hugs
"Are you close to his sister?" Ben asked confused
"She was my room mate and she is my best friend." I said as Luca calmed me by holding my hand
"It was nice meeting you all. Maybe when we get a chance everyone comes to New York for a weekend." He said before we walked out

"What kindof accident was this Luca?" I asked getting in the car
"She was shot. It was in retaliation from the Cartel." He said as Paul drove off
