Lorenzo’s pov “Wanna come with me?” I asked with my head pillowed against Mia’s soft stomach. Her fingers which had been moving around the scalp of my head slowly stilled almost immediately.“I know you wouldn’t let me know but I’m still curious, you know I can’t help it, which is why I’m still gonna ask where that is.” She mumbled in response and I scoffed before tilting my head backwards till I was staring at her face, but in an upside down position.“Does it mean that you wouldn’t agree to come with me because you’re curious?” I asked and she pursed her lips before shaking her head in response. Her hands reached down and clasped my cheeks as she began to speak.“You know I’d still come with you, so just tell me where!” She whined and I chuckled before pulling away from her and rising to my feet. I held a hand out for her and tugged her off the bed in the next moment.“I’m going to pay my aunt a visit.” I explained and I watched as she blinked in surprise.“Your aunt?” She ec

Mia’s pov “You… you didn’t mean all of that back there, did you?” I found myself asking before Lorenzo could even start the car. The question had been eating at my insides since the moment they left his mouth and that why I hadn’t been able to control myself to wait before asking said question.Lorenzo didn’t respond and instead motioned for me to do my seatbelt and in no time, he was driving out of the neighborhood, right into the busy road.The car ride was silent and it made me have the time to lose myself into my thoughts. I was still yet to recover from the fact that woman had tried to hurt Maeve and I just because of our father. It was clear that people in the mafia world don’t usually care that a child doesn’t have anything to do with said situation, all those kinds of people care about is getting their revenge, dosent matter if an innocent child would be the one to pay for it.That took me back to the point where Lorenzo’s aunt had called me a monster for defending a monster.

Mia’s pov “Seriously, just tell me what’s in there.” I said without glancing back at Lorenzo because I was still busy staring at the closed door which I’ve been curious of since I could remember. I’ve never seen Lorenzo open the door before and whenever I tried the doorknobs, it never gave.Lorenzo snorted in response as he rolled off the bed and come to stand beside me.“Take a guess. What do you think is inside?” He asked and I shrugged because nothing was coming to mind.“I honestly have no idea, so just go ahead and tell me, or open it already, cause you’re killing me this way.” I continued and Lorenzo let out a small laugh while shaking his head.“You know what I think? I think you’re way too dramatic for your own good.” He murmured and I rolled my eyes as I pointed at the door.“Just open it already.”He nodded towards the door. “It’s not locked.” He responded and I blinked at him in confusion.“It’s not? Cause I’ve tried opening it countless times and nothing ever works.” I po

Mia’s pov “What if we try it out?” I asked as I brushed my hair out of my face. We were currently standing in the kitchen, right in front of the fridge. Lorenzo who was downing a glass of cold water, arched a brow at me before responding.“Try whay out? A scene?”I bit on my bottom lip and slowly nodded my head in response. Lorenzo let out a low hum as he walked off to rinse the glass cup once he had completely downed the water.“So, you’ve been thinking about it.” Lorenzo stated and color filled up my cheeks.“On second thoughts, we probably shouldn’t—” As I spoke, I whirled around on my toes, ready to exist the kitchen, but Lorenzo’s grip on my wrist prevented me from moving an inch.He let out a low chuckle as he pulled me into his chest and leaned his head against my shoulder. I could feel tiny vibrations in his chest as he laughed.“Relax, baby. I was just teasing. Of course we can try out a scene.” He murmured against my throat and even though I was happy with his respo

Mia’s pov “What do you have to say for yourself?” Lorenzo asked coldly as he whipped out his gun and aimed it at the guy’s head. The man, who had been trying to string an excuse together, fell to his knees as soon as his eyes locked with the gun. And I remained frozen in the same spot as I watched it all unfold before me.It had been a beautiful evening. I had gone over to the mall tp shop for a bunch of things, accompanied by my bodyguards. Lorenzo’s call had come in around that period and he had suggested to come pick me up once I was done because he was around the same area. Of course, I had agreed at once, and in no time, I was sliding into Lorenzo’s car and offering him a bright smile like we hadn’t spent the entire morning together.I felt my heart flutter as I stared at him, drinking everything about him up as I stared at him. He grinned at me as he reached out and stroked my cheek.“Hi, gorgeous. Missed me?” He mused as he began to pul into the road. I made a show of rolling
