"Get off , Sophia, and don't call darling in front of everybody." Jas said, but she wasn't listening and her grip just tightened around him more, like she didn't want to let out of him, like she wanted to hug him forever.
"How was your sleep?" She asked as she chuckled a bit, and Jas imdiately knew she was implying sothing by it… yeah, that she was butt-naked beside him all night.
"There was nothing special about it." As soon as he said it, she stepped back from him and legitimately looked offended by it, like her expression was disbelief. "What?" Jas asked as he stepped to the counter, grabbing a toast and munching on it, but she said nothing back, just stared at him and tried to look more offended, like she wanted to get out of Jas sothing and well, it worked
"Maybe I saw sothing that was… good." He said with a little embarrassnt in his voice.
It's not cheating. Looking is not cheating…
"Oh really?" She imdiately lit up and smiled, stepping toward him, but Jas held out his hand.
"Yeah, really, but don't grab nor co closer. We need a distance between us, like five ters." He said once again as he ate the toast, and it actually made sense because now this situation might cause more and more trouble.
If sobody got it wrong, they might start calling Sophia the mistress of the family, and if that happened, it would cause more misunderstanding and trouble, especially with her, because there's no way she could do how Jas does his work. He gives people second chances that are not fucked up too much, but with Sophia, that would be even now a fucking quest to sohow put her on a chain, because she will kill everybody that disrespects Jas or the family, at least that Jas thought from the experience and gossip he heard about her.
Not just that, but what Hans told him when he visited her.
Yeah, all of these won around him, all obsessed… except one, who was Isabella, and she actually looked good. She had manners and looked sane even though she was on the top of the maniac level with Sophia… yeah, she was a woman he could actually think about, but she turned on him and stabbed him in the back.
His first girlfriend is an obsessed woman called Bella who kills and skins people, not to even ntion she cuts off balls… a strong, independent woman on her way… while on the other side there is another woman who is literally the sa, just a little bit more obsessed, more manic, and more bloodthirsty…
A jackpot or a curse who knows… but it is Bella, who Jas already pledged his loyalty to… and if he thinks more about it, Sophia would be worse than Bella.
Like, Bella already changed in so way, they already understood each other's feelings, and Jas had the talk with her about work and love, the two can't go together.
On the other hand, Sophia was the exact opposite of it.
Even though she kind of behaved like a whore around Jas, with others she is a leader and a stone-hard woman who puts fear into everybody who cos across her. This is exactly why she would be worse than Bella, because she was born to lead people. She's the perfect woman for a gangster family.
"Okay, I get it, but I will always be in your shadow… and sleep with you, and wear your clothes and—"
"Don't you have work to do? I appointed you as a branch leader." Jas quickly said before she listed everything and she actually just realized that it was true.
Like she is really part of the Bellini family and more than that, she leads a branch of the family… and she aid to be the best of it, so as fast as Jas said it, it was like a switch flipped in her mind.
She, without a word, just turned around and spirited back upstairs. It was her ti to shine, to show she wasn't just offering her body to Jas but everything with it… in simple words, she wanted to outshine Bella's spot, and with her intelligence, strategy and information, she wanted to push her down from the first place and beco the girlfriend of Jas.
And ohh shit, she was ready for it… like for real.
She had plans, a lot of it, in the suitcase upstairs. When she opened it, it was a dossier of docunts, information, everything she collected over the years, pen drives, everything you can think about. But there was a dossier that was white with Jas's na on it, and well, it was her plan.
She already did everything to prepare for a scenario that she beca a Bellini, but moreover in a higher position, and she actually guessed the branch leader position right… or that was one of the dozens of the outcos she thought about, but still, it was there.
She also knew two things that were more important than everything now that she is in a leading position.
The first one, the branch leader position in a family could be dangerous. If she makes a mistake, it might be seen as a betrayal, or like she wants to take over the main family or start a war with it, so she needs to control her own desire and act based on Jas's moves.
Second one connects to the first one, that with this, acting on Jas's actions, she needs to do things right to show him that she's actually worthy but not a rat, a snake who would use her power against him.
For Sophia, proving herself to Jas ant more than anything else and she was ready for it, so ready that she worked countless hours, gathering the best information, clues, and connections.
She was more prepared than anyone else, practically a diamond among stones, and she made sure to use it.
