Right, Vito was not scared of Luca. But as others mentioned Luca was the only person who could make Vito nervous. Considering Vito's own fearsome reputation that says a lot about Luca..

On Connie's wedding day perhaps Vito just didn't feel like taking all the energy needed to show Luca that he valued and respected him. The Don was trying to have positive thoughts... \:\)

"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming

Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
