Arabella POV
" did you hear that she called me Mrs Christiano " I smiled widely at him making him chuckle
" one day baby everyone's gonna be calling you that " he smirked giving me butterflies
I smiled widely until the stupid waitress came back with her fake extensions and fake ass boobs
at least my boobs are real
" here is your lasagnas can I get you any drinks "
She asked placing out plates down
" we'll have a bottle of your finest wine " he spoke not looking at her just me
" is that all " she spoke sweetly her high pitched voice sounding like a screeching cat he gave a nod directing her to go away
"I have questions " I said cautiously making him look at me questionably
" baby can it wait till we go home " he said and I gave him a nod
" thank you my love I promise to answer all your questions when we go home " he kissed my knuckles as we continued eating
" what was your question " I asked cautiously as I took a bite of the food
" there is an event coming up that I would like to take you to " he said nervously making me smile
" no need to be all nervous Nicky what's the event " I giggled making him roll he's eyes
" it's a ball amore you'd have to wear a gown and get done up " he said trying to convince me making me laugh knowing I hate getting done up
" Nicky I would gladly be your date to the ball but why can't I roll up in on of your hoodies and boxers " I pouted making him chuckle
" baby I love when you wear my clothes but this event is a big thing and I want everyone knowing your my Queen you'll have to learn how to dance and there's a lot of preparations to be made and a lot of people to meet it's just a lot my love " he spoke softly almost anxious
" is there a certain colour you'd like me to wear " I asked trying to take he's mind off it
" blue to match my tie but whatever your comfortable in my love " he said kissing my knuckles softly making me smile
" your wine " the high pitch voice interrupts making me roll my eyes he kissed my knuckles again sensing my annoyance along with his
" before you ask is that all the answer is yes " I said seriously making Dom stifle a laugh
" excuse me " she growled glaring at me
" did I stutter " I growled back
" I'd watch your tone with me " she snapped making me laugh
" what's funny " she growled
" if only you knew " I smirked making her growl
" if you value your life I'd watch your tone with my girl " Dom growled making me smirk as she cowered back to her post
" baby I know I've probably ruined dinner so how about we just go home and have a nice shower and then our talk " I said looking down
" anything my girl wants and you didn't ruin dinner my love that women did let's go " he said throwing money on the table before we stood up and made our way out to the limo
We got in and made our way home it was after 5 so we'd be home for 6 the car drive was filled with random chat and comment as we drove back
" I can't wait to get out of these shoes " I groaned making him chuckle
" your not wearing heels amore " he said with a chuckle making me growl
" that doesn't mean there comfy " I huffed rolling my eyes making him growl
" keep rolling your eyes at me amore " he growled playfully making me giggle as we pulled up to the house
" let's go " I said going to get out
" ah ah ah what are you doing the man gets out first and then helps the lady out " he gasps making me giggle
He gets out first and then helps me out with a goofy smile on he's face
" why thank you kind sir " I giggled as I kissed his cheek making him chuckle as we walked into the house
" hello we're home " he roared through the house
" we're out back " Rico called as we headed outside
" mama mama did you have a nice dinner with buba " Levi said racing over
" I did little wolf did you have a good time with nonna " I asked crouching down
" yes nonna is going to help us learn Italian " he smiled widely making me smile back
" that's great baby languages are important learn as many as you can mama is going to learn to so maybe nonna can teach us together where's your sister " I asked looking around
" her and Liv are playing " he said sadly
" well I heard uncle J might get you a friend soon aren't you excited " I asked making him perk up
" yes but what if he doesn't want to be friends " he said looking back down
" then he's crazy baby who wouldn't love this cute face " I said rubbing he's nose off mine making him giggle and kiss my cheek
" go find the girls and tell them I said include you okay " I kissed he's head as he ran off
" Bella come sit can I get you a drink " Rico asked as I walked towards the couch
" no thanks I'm fine " I smiled as I sat next to Dom
" so Bella did he ask you " Hayley said excitedly
" yes the ball sounds exciting I'm looking forward to it he didn't really explain tho what it's for but I'm excited to learn how to dance " I laugh as Dom kisses my temple
" the dance teacher will be hear next week the ball takes place in 6 weeks so there's plenty of time to get everything done no need to worry Bella " Jasmine reassured me making me smile
" okay so there's news I have to tell you about " John spoke up as we all looked his way
" as you all know Catherine it's not here she's with our son Jacob packing all there things as we're moving in here permanently as Catherine is 3 months pregnant and it's safer here " he said excitedly making all our jaws drop to the floor
" omg that's amazing congrats " I said smiling widely at him as he smiled back
" thank you it's very exciting we're hoping to get a principessa " he smiled lowly
" I hope everything works out if you need a baby sitter hit me up " I giggled as he shot me a smile
" don't worry I will " he said making me laugh
" it's getting late let's go amore we have to talk remember " he spoke softly in my ear as he stood up holding out he's hand I took it as we walked up the stairs to our room
" mama, papa " we heard the twins squeal in unison as we walked down the hall
" yes little wolves " I spoke softly crouching down
" did you heard aunty Cat is having a baby " Lexi squealed running into my arms
" I did baby it's all very exciting but me and daddy have to talk about grown up things " I huffed out making her pout as Levi ran back down the hall giggling
" but mama " she whined making me huff
" baby how about this if you go play with your brother I promise I'll let you pick the song I sing tonight before I tuck you in " I said holding out my pinky finger as she giggled and took it In hers kissing it before running after her brother
" god kids " I huffed before walking into our room
" we're gonna have so many tho " Dom chuckled as I jumped into the bed a laugh leaving my lips
" I will give you as many as you want my love " I said smiling as he leaned in to kiss me
" baby I'm gonna tell you some things and your gonna look at me like you don't know me but Arabella I promise you I would never hurt you or the twins you know that right baby " he said leaning he's forehead against mine making me quirk a brow
Hurt me or the twins?
What is he talking about
" Nicky please get on with it baby I love you and I know you'd never hurt us " I sighed cupping he's cheek as he leaned into my touch
" baby come sit with me " he whispered lowly as we headed over to the couch he took my hands
" baby do you know what I do for a living " he asked not meeting my eyes
" ya you own a couple businesses " I shrugged off not knowing where this was going
" that's true but I also do things that don't quite follow the law " he said making my head tilt to the side
I didn't get what he was saying he continued as I didn't speak he played with my small hands in he's as he was nervous
" baby do you know what a Mafia is " he asked making me shoot my head up
" I think so aren't they gangs that sell things like women, drugs and guns where is this going Nicky " I said questionably as he wouldn't look at me
" baby can you look at me " I said softly as I crawled into he's lap holding he's face with my hands making him look up at me
" I'm not a good man amore " he sighed looking away from me once again
" what do you mean Nicky can you explain baby your not making any sense to me " I asked softly as I kissed he's hands
" Im next in line for the Italian Mafia throne " he huffed out making me freeze
" what " It almost came out like a whisper but I knew he heard it
" I'm next in line-" I placed my hand over he's mouth making him furrow he's brows together
" no I heard you I just don't get it what exactly do you do " I asked cautiously
I know he would never hurt me so I wasn't scared
" we sell drugs and guns mostly guns but we don't traffic people be try our best to stop it " he said lowly with me still in he's lap i didn't speak
" I'll answer all your questions " he said making me look up at he's worried expression
" do you kill people " I said lowly not prepared for the answer
" yes if necessary " he spoke softly
" can you add to that please " I said cautiously
" everyone I've ever killed amore has deserved it " he said slowly trying to prepare me I gave a nod before standing up as he put he's head in he's hands while I paced back and fort
" that's why we have body guards and there's cars always following us? " I questioned getting a nod
" and I'm guessing everyone in this house is apart of it " I ask making him nod making me sigh
" god how did I not figure it out " I sighed jumping back on the bed making him look up
" Arabella you know how serious this is right " he said making me growl at him saying my name
" listen here you may be big Mafia man but I will hit you with my shoe if you keep calling me by my full name " I growled making him smile lowly
" baby why aren't you freaking out right now you should be trying to get away from me I'm not good amore " he said making he's way over sitting on the side of the bed not looking at me
" your right one sec I'm gonna go pack up and leave " I said going to get up making him look up at me with glossy eyes
" Nicky, lover I couldn't leave you if I tried there's nothing you could do or say that could ever make me leave you when I told you I loved you that means all of you even the parts you don't want me seeing " I said softly walking in between his legs as I placed my hands in his hair
" I don't understand amore I'm bad I just told you I kill people and your still here are you crazy " he said looking at me making me laugh
" only crazy for you " I giggled making him smile before I continued
" those people you kill you said they deserved it and I believe you I'm not scared of you baby I know you'd never hurt me and stop saying your bad I don't like lies " I said honestly as he looked up into my eyes a tear falling down he's cheek
" baby what's wrong did I do something " I said sadly as I wiped he's teary eyes
" I just don't deserve you my love your my light in this dark world baby I'd burn the world down before I let anything happen to you " he said wrapping he's arms tighter around my waist
" you might think your bad Nicky but you saved me when I didn't even know I needed saving I love you so much no matter what " I said softly as I rubbed my nose off he's making him smile
" god I love you so much baby girl you had me scared baby I thought you'd leave me " he said sadly making me hug him tightly
" the only way I'd ever leave you is through death " I said honestly making him shake head
" not even death could keep us apart baby girl " he said as I played a kiss on his nose
" will you promise me something " I ask sitting on he's lap as he kissed my shoulder and hummed
" don't die on me " i said looking into those emerald eyes
