Luca said nothing and shifted more closer to her and squatted.
He would do anything she wanted so as to feel her skin on his.
He just wanted to leave this place at least sound with no injuries
He staggered forward as she practically threw her body on his back “Hold on tight” he said and stood up.
She locked her legs around his waist and he tensed but grabbed her thighs to keep her steady nonetheless.
He grinded his teeth at how smooth her skin was and how he would never have a chance to feel those legs wrap around his neck, his waist.
Feel it on his skin but another man.
Gosh, he closed his eyes for a brief moment but had to open them to see where he was going.
He knew he had nothing up his sleeve to woo her to forgive him.
But who forgives those who killed their precious beloved father?
No one.
Or probably him.
He shook his head not wanting to go back to that gory scene of that day.
People like Sophia would grab such an opportunity like a woman left in a desert searching for the nearest drop of water if it were given to them but no he used it for his benefit.
His advantage.
That opportunity was like the missing puzzle in his game to overthrown his father and presented itself on a platter and as much he was stressing himself to clean his fucking mess he all but created, it was worth it.
He tripped on a root but caught himself at the squeak of the woman on his back.
She was light.
So light, he added to the list of mental notes to start feeding her and making sure she ate the food.
“You are quiet” he tilted his head back a bit to stare at her which was impossible.
She was and it was scary.
The quietness was disturbing and he never indulged in one well until her appearance which made him indulge in more noise. Get faster updates on g.com.
Frequenting his club and warehouse to ease tensions she unintentionally left him with.
“I’m tired”
And Luca almost staggered again, a laugh just about leaving his lips and he pulled it up in a smirk instead.
He didn’t respond with a retort but left her to herself.
He leveled his eyes ahead and they were almost there, with him in his head and she in his thoughts he didn’t know they were almost there.
After walking for a second, he realized he hadn’t heard the sound of the alarm and didn’t turn back to check but began sprinting his way to the end.
If he could just make it.
“Are we there yet? I feel like I might fall and vomit my guts. I…am…am shaking too much luc..a. You—”
“Shut up” Luca hissed as he ran like a man on a mission, he smiled when he saw the wildflowers they trimmed into a bed in a canopy style that led to the exit.
However he could hear people screaming and shouting and… “Fuck. Jesus” he ran so fast and passed the exit, still running until he reached a safe distance; however , a familiar bang he normally heard when they were under attack rang through his ears.
And he ran forward, so far away and dropped Sophia who groaned and tried grabbing his chest to steady herself but he pushed her away softly “Stay put. I’ll be back or try to call someone to take you inside” he moved to go when she gripped his shirt.
Her eyes sparkled with emotions she wouldn’t want to reveal but had to.
As much as she hated him, she didn’t want to find out what would happen if he didn’t let her off by himself.
She knew no one here and wouldn’t want to know but just leave.
This place was uncertain.
She needed him and didn’t want him to die…at least not yet.
Her lips quivered “I still need to leave this place in the next few weeks. So don’t die, at least not yet. I would love to do that myself”
Since, not knowing what was up there but it looked serious.
Sophia left his shirt “don’t die. I still need you” with hobbling she backed into the dark but Luca was able to see the light from the house making him able to see her shadow. This chapter is updated first at g.com.
He stood where she left off, gazing into the route of where she went off.
Unsure of what to do, he looked around to search for anyone to go up and stay with her but he saw no one.
His heart thumped, his legs moved in the direction she took, he wanted to follow but stopped thinking back to the main reason why he told her to go for the house.
His maze was about to go up in flames and he was about to go after a woman who just told him he couldn’t die.
She was going to do that herself and needed to leave him.
He ran his hand through his head mulling over everything.
He exhaled and looked up to the sky.
It wasn’t dark like before, meaning the sun would be up soon.
He closed his eyes and opened them up to dark smoke up in the sky.
He rubbed his hand down his face “Fuck” he charged down where he made out his security personnels faces.
And they turned to him, the head speaking up first “Should we call fire service? They’ll be here any moment”
Luca sighed.
This was another problem, the government meddling in his business and house.
If they tried stepping foot into his compound, they would try to get into his house and then his business and he didn’t want them even near his toe.
“No. I will handle it.”
His head security turned to him, they knew what he was into but dared not to speak to a soul about it.
The NDA was nothing.
He would blow their brains out if it comes to cleaning up their dirty mess.
“How?”
Yeah how?
He asked himself.
