The Mafia’s Substitute Bride

Sofia’s excitement was palpable as she woke up early, anticipation coursing through her veins. She carefully selected a pink, flowy gown that accentuated her figure, its fabric dancing with each step she took. Her hair was tied up in a high ponytail, showcasing her slender neck and framing her delicate features. With a touch of light makeup, mascara enhancing her lashes and a pink lip gloss adding a touch of freshness to her lips, she wanted to present herself as a woman ready to embrace the adventure that awaited her.

As Sofia made her way down the grand hall of their mansion, she couldn’t help but notice Leonardo standing there, exuding an aura of charm and confidence. He was dressed in a perfectly fitted white shirt, the fabric molding to his muscular physique and emphasizing his well-defined abs. The sleeves were rolled up, revealing his strong forearms, and a few buttons at the top were left undone, offering a tantalizing glimpse of his chiseled chest. Paired with faded denim jeans that hung low on his hips, he looked both effortlessly stylish and irresistibly alluring.

Today, Leonardo seemed different, a younger and more relaxed version of himself. His hair was artfully disheveled, and his clean-shaven face accentuated his striking features. Sofia couldn’t help but feel her heart flutter in her chest as his gaze met hers, his smile captivating her in an instant. It was as if time stood still, her body responding to his magnetic presence.

As Leonardo extended his hand, Sofia’s breath hitched, and she placed her hand in his, feeling a jolt of electricity at his touch. He pulled her gently, drawing her closer, and wrapped his arms around her waist. The warmth of his embrace enveloped her, making her feel safe and desired.

“Are you ready, baby girl?” Leonardo asked, his voice filled with a hint of mischief, his eyes sparkling with anticipation. Sofia couldn’t help but return his infectious smile, her excitement evident in her nod.

“Like forever,” she chirped playfully, her enthusiasm bubbling over. Sofia was eager to spend quality time with him, away from the prying eyes and constant presence of their bodyguards.

“So, our bodyguards are also coming with us?” she asked, curiosity tinged with a touch of disappointment. The thought of having their privacy invaded even during their vacation was disheartening.

Leonardo’s gaze turned serious as he looked at her, his expression unyielding. “Yes, angel. I can’t take any chances,” he replied in his authoritative tone. His protective nature came to the forefront, reminding Sofia of the dangers that lurked in their world.

Sofia couldn’t help but pout, her frustration evident. She longed for moments of intimacy and privacy with her husband, away from the watchful eyes of others. She wanted it to be just the two of them, lost in their own world.

“Can we get some privacy when we are on holiday?” she pleaded softly, her lips forming a pout that tugged at Leonardo’s heart.

“Love, you will get used to this. This is my life,” Leonardo explained, his tone serious but tinged with a touch of tenderness. “I have more enemies than friends, and they would not hesitate to harm us if given the chance. Although I am powerful, you are my weakness, and that makes you a target.”

Sofia’s heart swelled with both admiration and shyness. She felt a rush of warmth knowing that she held such a special place in his life, that he openly acknowledged her importance.

They sat in the car and began their journey towards their undisclosed destination. Sofia couldn’t contain her curiosity any longer and eagerly asked Leonardo about their destination, hoping for a hint or clue. She looked at him with anticipation, her eyes filled with excitement.

“Are you still not going to tell me where we are going?” Sofia inquired, her voice filled with anticipation as they embarked on their trip.

Leonardo chuckled, his deep and husky voice sending shivers down her spine. “Patience, baby girl. It’s a surprise, remember?” he replied, a mischievous smirk dancing on his lips.

As they continued their drive, Sofia noticed that they were veering towards the riverside, away from the anticipated airport. Confusion washed over her, and she glanced at Leonardo, who seemed to be amused by her perplexed expression. The car eventually came to a halt in front of a grand yacht, its size and elegance breathtaking.

Her mouth fell open in awe as she took in the sight before her. She turned to Leonardo, her eyes filled with excitement, and asked, “Are we going to ride this?”

Leonardo simply nodded, his eyes gleaming with delight, and they made their way towards the luxurious superyacht. A man in a crisp white uniform greeted them with a warm welcome.

“Welcome, Mr. and Mrs. Morelli. I am your captain. Welcome to your superyacht,” he announced, and Sofia’s eyes widened in shock and surprise. Their yacht!All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Confusion filled her mind as she turned to Leonardo, seeking an explanation. His cheeky grin only added to her curiosity.

“What did he say?” Sofia asked, her eyes searching Leonardo’s for answers. She knew he held the key to unraveling the mystery.

With a playful glint in his eyes, Leonardo guided her toward the front corner of the yacht. Placing his hand under her chin, he gently lifted her gaze, directing her attention to the upper end of the yacht. Sofia followed his gaze and her eyes widened, her astonishment evident on her face as she gazed at the superyacht. The realization washed over her like a wave, leaving her breathless and speechless. It belonged to Morelli Enterprises.

“Leonardo!” she exclaimed, her voice barely a whisper, filled with awe and disbelief.

A warm smile graced Leonardo’s lips as he looked at her, his eyes shining with affection and excitement.

“I bought it for us, for our special moments together. I wanted to make our honeymoon unforgettable, just like you are to me. So we will spend seven days on this superyacht, where no one will disturb us,” he revealed, his voice filled with tenderness.

Sofia’s heart raced with anticipation and joy. The thought of having this luxurious yacht all to themselves filled her with a thrilling excitement.

“You and me, alone,” she murmured, her voice filled with a mixture of excitement and love.

Leaning closer, Leonardo gently brushed his lips against hers, savoring the sweet connection they shared. It was a moment filled with tenderness and the promise of endless love.

“Come, my love. I’ll show you our room,” he said, his voice tinged with happiness.

Taking her hand in his, he guided her inside the yacht. The moment they stepped inside, they were greeted by a spacious hall adorned with a stylish bar in one corner and elegantly arranged dining tables. Soft music played in the background, adding to the ambiance of their private sanctuary.

They walked together through a gallery, their steps echoing lightly against the polished floor, until they reached the furthest end. Leonardo opened the door, revealing a stunning room that left Sofia in awe. The space was impeccably designed, adorned with pristine white decor that exuded an air of elegance and tranquility.

Sofia’s eyes sparkled with delight as she took in the luxurious surroundings.

In the center of the room, a large bed beckoned, adorned with luxurious white silk sheets that seemed to invite them to relax and indulge in their private haven. Sofia couldn’t help but imagine the comfort and intimacy they would share on that bed, creating cherished memories.

Their luggage had already been carefully placed in the room, a thoughtful detail that demonstrated Leonardo’s attention to every aspect of their trip. Sofia couldn’t wait to explore more of this beautiful yacht and the adventures that awaited them.

Curiosity led her toward the window, and she gracefully slid open the curtains, revealing a breathtaking view of the vast ocean stretching out before her. The endless expanse of water meeting the sky in the distance filled her with a sense of wonder and awe. Sofia couldn’t help but let out a gasp of delight, her excitement palpable.

Clapping her hands with joy, she turned to face Leonardo, her eyes sparkling with excitement and anticipation.

“Are you sure we get to stay on this amazing yacht for seven days?” she asked, seeking confirmation from him, her voice filled with wonder.

Leonardo’s eyes lit up mischievously, a knowing smile playing on his lips. Closing the distance between them with just a few strides, he took hold of her waist, pulling her irresistibly close to his strong, firm body. Sofia’s heart raced at his touch, her senses heightened by their proximity.

Bending his face down, he whispered against her lips, his warm breath sending shivers down her spine, “Do you still have doubts, baby girl?”
