Chapter 15 - A Dynasty Reborn: The Don’s True Queen and Forever Home
“By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife,” the officiant declared. “Don Luca, you may kiss your bride.”
Luca didn't wait for another second.
He wrapped his arms around Emma’s waist, lifting her slightly off the ground and dipping her in front of the cheering crowd, kissing his wife with all the passion, devotion, and fire that lived in his soul.
The applause was deafening. Rose petals rained down around them as the entire congregation cheered for the new Don and Donna of the Moretti dynasty.
Later that evening, as the wedding reception danced under the stars in the illuminated courtyard, Luca led Emma away from the crowd toward the quiet stone balcony overlooking the lake.
The water was calm, reflecting the silver light of the full moon.
Luca wrapped his arms around Emma from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder as she leaned back against his strong chest.
“Teresa told me she already picked out names for our children,” Emma said with a soft, happy laugh.
Luca chuckled, pressing a warm kiss against the curve of her neck. “Knowing my grandmother, she has already enrolled them in private school.”
Emma turned in his arms, wrapping her hands around his neck, looking up into the dark eyes that she loved more than life itself.
“I never thanked you,” Emma said softly.
“For what?”
“For being the man my mother prayed would find me.”
Luca smiled, leaning down to press his forehead against hers.
“From the moment you ruined my dinner, Emma Moretti, my soul was yours. Forever.”
