Luca’s POV
“Bunny?” I called out and waited until she had turned around to stare at me, before I continued.
“Don’t fret over it, alright?” I said to her in the next moment and watched as her eyes widened confusingly at first.
“Uh, I shouldn’t?”
“Yes, bunny. Don’t fret over it one bit, it’s all going to be fine.” I continued, watched as she blinked up at me after a fleeting moment without saying a thing.
“Let’s see, you want to give it a name, right?” I questioned and watched as she nodded her head instantly.
“Yes, yes I do… but I can’t seem to settle on one, and I want to give it a really good name.” She admitted and I breathed out a small chuckle as I started to nod my head at her.
“I got that already, bunny.” I informed her and watched as she grinned a little before averting her gaze.
We were already at the back of the house and I could already see the garden at the far end of this particular part.
“The garden looks so beautiful.” Sofia started to say beside me and I glanced down at her in the next moment.
“Wait until you see the other sides of the house.” I said to her with a small chuckle and watched as she glanced up at me in the next moment.
“There are something else there?” She asked and I chuckled at her awed facial expression before starting to nod my head at her in response.
“Of course, bunny. There is.” I confirmed with a nod of my head following suit.
“On wow, let’s hurry then.” She urged and started to move even faster in the next second. I still held onto her and started scamming everywhere subtly to avoid being suddenly taken unaware by anybody who might be watching us at this very moment.
“There’s a pool around here?” Sofia asked in a low voice as she stared wide eyed at the bed of blue water a few feet away from where we were currently standing. I breathed out a response to her in the next moment.
“Yes bunny. There is.” I said to her almost immediately and watched as she instantly turned around to glance up at me.
“Oh my gosh, I had no idea,” She cried out while bouncing a little on the balls of her feet and I let go of her hand before starting to chuckle at how cute she currently looked being all excited over something like this.
“You can’t go into it though,” I informed her and watched as the excitement on her face slowly started to shift, confusion mixing with the excitement at once.
“Oh.” She whispered and I nodded my head in the next moment,
“Why?” She demanded in the next moment.
“It’s for security reasons, it’s completely off limits.” I paused and reached for her face and tipped her head upwards with a finger beneath her chin before continuing. “In fact, you can’t come to the back of the house at all, unless I’m the one bringing you here myself…”
“Uh…” She made to speak but I shook my head before continuing, sparing a quick glance around for a moment.
“Because it’s very dangerous and I don’t want anything to happen to you, which is why walking around this side of the house is completely off limits, do you understand?” At this point, she appeared to be almost sad but she nodded her head slowly at me, and in the next moment, her lower lip was protruding in a cute little pout.
“O- okay.” She ended up whispering and I nodded my head at her in the next moment before moving a strand of her hair away from her face to tuck it behind her ear.
“But-” She started to say before trailing off in the next moment and blinking up at me, probably thinking I was going to prevent her from completing her sentence but I nodded my head at her and indicated that she continued to speak.
“The pool, it looks so good to be just there by itself.” She admitted with a small shrug of her shoulders and I couldn’t agree more because I saw exactly where she was coming from.
“I see your point, bunny. But then it’s still going to be here if someone gets shot and dies instantly just because the person wanted to swim in here.” I explained to her and watched as her eyes widened comically in the next moment.
“Oh.” She finally whispered and I nodded my head at her because I was sure that she had already gotten my point.
“If you want to soak so bad, there’s a jacuzzi upstairs and it’s very big, and spacious.” I informed her and watched as she perked up in excitement in the next moment.
“There is?” She asked in a low voice and I nodded my head at her instantly, feelimg a smile tug at the side of my lips at how her excitement was making me happy in an unexplainable kind of way.
“Yes, bunny. There is.” I affirmed,
“I don’t know about that as well, how didn’t I know about that?” She cried out after a fleeting second and I noticed that once again, she was bouncing on the balls of her feet. I patted her head a little before dropping my hand to my side and then I started to speak.
“Matilda probably showed it to you and you’ve probably forgotten about it.” I suggested and waited as she started to think for the first few seconds.
“I don’t remember but now I’m feeling mad that there’s a jacuzzi in the house all these while that I have no idea of.” She whined with a cute, small scowl on her face and I chuckled a little before reaching out and caressing her cheek a little.
“If this is how you look when you’re mad, then I must say that you’re very cute.”
She bursted out into a fit of goggles as my words sank into her head, a little bit of color flooding her cheeks as she laughed.
“That’s the most corniest thing someone has ever said to me.” she admitted once she had stopped laughing and I cracked a little smile before demanding. “It is?”
“Uhun, but it’s also cute as well.” She confessed, blinking up at me, the color starting to fade from her cheeks.
“It’s definitely not as cute as you look right now.” I decided to add, because I had loved seeing her hurst into a fit of giggles a moment ago, but this time, she was lifting her hands to cover her ears in embarrassment as it started to darken with color,
“Oh my gosh, stop,” she whined with a small laugh and I reached down and flicked her nose a little before turning my head around and glancing around for a moment.
“Wanna sit down, bunny?” I asked as I turned back to stare at her and I watched as she shrugged her shoulders at first.
“Where would we be sitting?” She asked after a few moments. I slipped a glance around the whole place once again before finally pointing at a spot that was located a few feet away from the swimming pool.
“Oh, over there?” She asked as soon as she had noticed where it was that I was pointing at and I gave her a nod of my head when she turned back around to glance at me.
We headed over to the small expense of space and sank down into the light looking grass. I settled down comfortably and glanced around the whole place after a moment. There were guards scattered around different spots at this side of the house, like it was in every part of the house to begin with, and I just know that they were l watching Sofia and I.
