my mafiaso

"my eyes land on you, in the dim of the neon lights from the nightclub, i see you, dancing like there’s no tomorrow, your effortless happiness and enjoyment made my heart race, made it feel, after a long while and i am curious as i make my way towards you" hey, you look..breathtaking "i say almost blushing but maintaining my serious demeanor"

"my eyes land on your petite figure, the short black dress barely containing your beauty, the dim lights of the club enhancing your radiant glow. I step closer, breathing in your intoxicating scent, a hint of whiskey on your lips" Ciao bella, having fun I see "I say with a playful smile, eyes locking with yours, the rest of the world fading away as I get lost in your dazzling eyes. Reaching out a hand, I brush a loose strand of hair behind your ear, fingers gently tracing your soft cheek" You look absolutely stunning tonight tesoro. Care to dance some more...or would you like to get out of here for some real fun? "leaning in close so only you can hear over the loud music, my voice drops to a deep husky whisper" Il mio posto o il tuo

"chuckling softly at your drunken state, yet also touched by your innocence, I gently wrap an arm around your waist to steady you" Tranquilla amore, you seem to have enjoyed the drinks a little too much eh? "gazing down at you with affection, I slowly repeat in English" I was asking if you would like to continue our dance, or perhaps get out of here for some more...private fun. We could go to my place, or yours, whatever makes you comfortable tesoro. But for now, let's get you some fresh air yes? *sweeping you up in my arms bridal style, I carry you with ease through the crowd, nodding respectfully to those who know me. Stepping out into the cool night, I place you down but keep an arm around your waist, lifting your face to meet my gaze

"Noticing your shiver, I immediately shrug off my suit jacket and drape it gently over your shoulders, rubbing your bare arms warmth. The breeze catches your intoxicating scent rising from your skin, testing my self control. But your comfort comes first." There, is that better amore? We can't have you catching a cold now can we? "My tone is soft and caring as I observe your flushed cheeks and hazy eyes, concern and desire warring within." Why don't we get you home and tucked safely into a warm bed, eh? Then I can take care of you properly. "Reaching down, I scoop you back into my arms and carry you towards my waiting car, nodding to my guards." Antonio, take us back to the villa. And tell the kitchen to prepare something light for the signorina's stomach.

"Chuckling softly at your confused yet endearing expression,I whisper gently in your ear as I carry you towards the car" Signorina is just another word for lady, bella. It means I see you as nothing less than the most beautiful signorina in the room. "My voice drops low in a mix of amusement and sincerity." Now don't you worry that pretty little head of yours, just relax and let Sal take care of everything. I'm going to get you home, feed you something to soothe that belly and tuck you safely in my big comfortable bed. And I'll be right there next to you all night, keeping you safe and warm. So close those gorgeous eyes for me tesoro, we'll be home before you know it. *Gazing down at your flushed face nestled against my chest, I feel

"Glancing down and noticing your enraptured gaze focused upwards, I can't help but smile softly at your wonderstruck expression." The stars sure are beautiful tonight aren't they tesoro? "Slowing my pace so as not to disturb your awe, I gently follow your gaze up to the velvety night sky dotted with twinkling lights." You know, some people believe that each star represents a soul that's passed on, watching over their loved ones from the heavens. "My voice takes on a whimsical tone as I share the notion." I like to think that the brightest ones are the souls who burned the fiercest during their lifetime. Full of passion and fire just like you, my little stella. *Leaning down, I place a tender kiss to your forehead, drinking in your intoxicating nearness. For now

"Hearing your soft crying, I immediately stop in my tracks, my heart clenching in concern as I gently turn you in my arms to face me. Cupping your cheek tenderly, I use my thumb to brush away the tears with the utmost care and tenderness." Oh tesoro mio, why the tears? Have I said something to upset you? Shh, it's alright now. "My voice is but a low rumble as I try to soothe you." Tell me what's wrong so I can make it better amore. Was it what I said about the stars? "Noticing your small nod, I pull you against my chest, nestling your head beneath my chin and wrapping my arms protectively around your shaking form." There, there, I've got you now. It's okay to cry, I'm here

"At your soft uttered word, I hold you even closer, gently rocking you in my embrace as I try to comfort your aching heart. Stroking your hair tenderly, I press a lingering kiss to the top of your head." Shhh tesoro, it's all right. I know how much you must miss her. "My voice is low and soothing as I speak." Your mamma is up there watching over you, I just know it. She's the brightest shining star, making sure her little girl is safe. And I promise you, as long as you're with me, no harm will come to you. I'll take care of you, the way I'm sure she would want. You don't have to be alone or sad anymore, let it all out piccolina. I've got you, and I'm not

"Feeling your tiny form shake with heartrending sobs as you cling to me like a koala, my own heart cracks within my chest. This is the last thing I wanted - to cause you more pain. Gently lifting you in my arms once more, I hold you close and begin to rock you slowly, murmuring soft words of comfort as I rub your back soothingly." Shh amore mia, it's all right. I'm here, you're safe. Let it all out... "Beginning to hum a lullaby low in my chest, I start walking again slowly as I try to calm your tears. Reaching the car, I slip inside still cradling you protectively and give orders to the driver." Take the long way home Antonio. *Settling back against the plush seats, I resume softly singing as

"Feeling your tiny frame gradually relax in my embrace as my low rumbling lullaby works its magic, I smile sadly down at your now sleeping form nestled trustingly in my lap. The tears have finally ceased, leaving soft traces glistening on your cheeks in the dim light. Continuing to brush and card my fingers soothingly through your hair, I press another lingering kiss to your forehead as you slumber peacefully at last. Glancing out the tinted windows at the passing city lights through the night, I'm filled with a fierce protectiveness and longing to always keep this angel safe from harm. "We're almost home little one," I murmur quietly as you stir, tightening my arms just a bit more. Home where you belong, with me."

*As the car rolls to a smooth stop outside the Estate gates, I carefully shift you in my arms, not wanting to wake you from your much-needed rest. Nodding briefly to my men stationed outside, I exit the vehicle and make my way inside. The massive doors quietly close behind us, enveloping us in warm tranquility. Mounting the stairs, I carry you effortlessly to your room and lay you gently upon the soft bed, removing your shoes. Drawing the blankets up around your sleeping form and pressing a tender kiss to your forehead, I whisper "Sweet dreams, my little star." Straightening, I linger in the doorway gazing at your peaceful face, then retreat into the hall, pulling the door to but a crack. Leaning back against the wall with a sigh, I take a moment to collect myself, ever thankful you've found

"Hearing soft stirrings from within your room, I rise from my window perch and enter quietly. My breath catches at the adorable sight before me - you sitting up in bed, rubbing the sleep from your eyes as you yawn delicately. Like a little kitten awaking from its nap. But then I see the confusion dawn as you glance around, realizing this isn't familiar. Just as you begin to climb out of bed, clearly unsure, I interrupt gently." "Buongiorno, piccolina. I hope you slept well." "At the sound of my voice, your beautiful gaze finds me and I offer a tender smile." "You're safe here, remember? This is my home. Why don't I draw you a bath and fix us some breakfast, then give you a tour, hmm? No need to be afraid

"Your uncertainty tugs at my heart and I approach slowly, crouching before you so our eyes meet on equal ground." "My name is Salvatore. But you can call me Sal, or whatever makes you comfortable, tesoro." "Reaching out a cautious hand, I brush aside a lock of hair from your face in a gentle, caring gesture." "I know you must have many questions. Just know that you're under my protection now, and no harm will come to you here. I only wish to take care of you, if you'll let me. The rest can wait until you're ready. For now, why don't we start with that bath, eh? I promise the water will be warm and soothing." "Offers a small, reassuring smile, hoping my calm demeanor and caring touch helps ease your nerves." "You
