Luca Rossi

Luca walked into the office, hair tousled and restlessness slackening his eyes. He took a hold of his coat, ripping off his body and throwing it to a couch in the corner.

Luke sat on the office chair with his feet on the table. He had an amused smirk on his face, watching his friend slowly begin to pace the room with his fingers on his jaw. "How did it go." He asked.

Luca was quiet for a while. He continued to pace, he stopped for a moment. Turning to his friend with a worried expression. "She seemed.... Extremely skeptical. I do not think she would accept it."

Luke let out a chuckle, rubbing his palms together. He stared at the wall for a while before shifting his eyes back to his troubled friend. "I doubt any peasant would say no to thirty million dollars Luca."

Anger slowly seeped through Lucas' eyes. He sent a glare of daggers down his friend's direction. "Peasant? Don't you dare call her that Luke, ever." He seethed.

Luke chuckled dryly. "Relax... I was only riling yo

    "I have accepted your offer, I will marry you."Hazel stood firmly in front of Luca Rossi, unwavering, unblinking. She had made up her mind, and in two days instead of the agreed three. All he did was stare back at her in a bit of surprise, like he did not expect that she would agree. "For one year." She added. He stood from his seat slowly, adjusting the collar of his shirt as he walked up to her. She took a small step back as he approached, her breathing increasing a little.He stopped a foot away from her, she could smell his cologne, wafting through her nostrils and overpowering her senses. She nearly closed her eyes to savour it all..."Okay." He whispered, his voice deep and somewhat husky"we would be married in a week.""A week?!" She snapped out of her daze, eyes widening slightly. A week seemed too soon! What was the rush? "A week is too soon, what's the rush?"Luca exhaled, tucking his hands into his pockets. "It just has to be so. There would be an engagement party in a

    Company at the hospital had dwindled since Anna left. She did not want to, but she had to. She was a business woman afterall, her work could not be kept waiting for far too long. Therefore, reluctantly, she left her friend to the caring of her Grandma alone for the moment.Hazel had found very few things to do sitting and waiting silently in the hospital. All she could think of was the new arrangement she had agreed to. An upcoming engagement, when her grandma was even yet to be conscious. Something felt far to uncomfortable about it at all, what was Luca not telling her about this arrangement? What was the urgency of it all?"Miss Jacobs?"She titled her head upwards upon the hearing of her name, ears perking up.The middle aged doctor with a notepad in hand stared at her with a soft smile. "Yes doctor?" She answered."Your grandmother is conscious now." He informed, rubbing his wrinkled nose with gloved fingers.She gasped, in relief and in excitement. "Oh my goodness... Thanks a lo

    "When will I be discharged?" That was the first question Grandma asked as Hazel walked in. She sat up on her bed, a dissatisfied look upon her face, fingers intertwined on her lap. Hazel took in a deep breath as she approached the bed. "Grandma..."She swallowed the growing lump in her throat. She knew she couldn't be discharged anytime soon. She was trying so hard to act strong, probably so she could leave soon. But Hazel could see from the constant twitching in the corner of her eye that she was in a lot of pain. "You need to rest." She told her, seating beside her. "I have been out for about three days, I think I have rested enough." She remarked with a scowl. "No, you haven't." Hazel breathed, letting out a long sigh. "You will go into surgery soon."She was scared to even mention it at all, she knew her grandma must have been told this by the doctor upon her waking, but it was a reality neither of them were willing to face, so neither was willing to mention it. She shook he

    Luca stopped by that very evening with a white bag in his hands; he had brought them dinner.When he walked into the hospital ward, Hazel sat by her Grandma's bed, face slack and pale with tiredness and deep thought. Her grandma had her eyes closed, an IV attached to her arm. Hazel's head turned when she hard his footsteps approaching. A look of surprise came upon her features. "Luca... What are you doing here?" She asked, rising from the bed with a confused frown.He was in his suit as always, the first few buttons of his shirt left unbuttoned. "I brought food." He replied, walking over to the table in the corner and placing the bag on it."Food?" She asked, staring at the bag.She had barely eaten all day. She couldn't stomach it. All that was happening, the news of the engagement. It seemed a lot to process. Six days....She had seen it on a blog herself on her phone. And even on the small TV in the hospital reception room, it was written on the headlines that rolled past beneath

    Red looked really pretty on her tonight, Hazel could testify it herself. She was looking far more beautiful than she thought herself to be. Starring right through this mirror on the wall, she could see the anxiety that flickered in her eyes. To make a public appearance with her fiance... Luca Rossi. The word fiance was even still a foreign concept to her. Luca had someone stop by the hospital and take her to pick this dress out. The lady had introduced herself to her very briskly, barely saying much, only giving a brief smile or a nod or a shake of her head here and there as she made her try out different outfits. She was still in the dark as to where they were going, but Luca had not leave her to pick a dress by herself this time. His hired expert seemed to be very cautiously observing, and criticizing every outfit like the occasion was the wedding itself.The red dress happened to be the one who gained her satisfaction. She had smiled a bit more widely, demanding a twirl and g

    Flashing lights, false smiles, and an intrepid air of elegance. All these surrounded Hazel the moment their car stopped in front of the enormous hotel building where the gala was being held. From the way her eyes dimmed and her heart beat hastened, Luca could sense her anxiety, he turned to her as she stared out the window. She looked exquisite, he was sure she would be the centre of attention by his side tonight. "We are here." The diver announced, coming down from the car and walking to their side to hold the door open for them. Hazel let out a harsh exhale. She had expected a date, not an entire gala with a whole lot of paparazzi eagerly flashing camera lights and pointing microphones at people like they were dangerous swords used to compel them into answering scandalous questions. "Hazel..."She turned to Luca as he called her name and let out a soft gasp. She did not realize he had already stepped out of the car and was holding his hand out for her to help her down.She reac

    As Alva Roger stepped down from her vehicle, chin up, radiating the same elegance and confidence she always did; the cameras immediately turned to her. She was used to this already, the clamoring, the attention, occasionally she would yield to it. She would often be asked trivial questions, like her skincare routine, her last trip, her last vacation, her opinion on the latest fashion. But tonight as the paparazzi rushed for her with hungry eyes and microphones pointing forward like swords, she knew tonight was not about the benefits of a skincare routine or the intricacies of her outfit. "Miss Alva." The first voice called out to her. "Are you aware that your ex-fiancee and your maid are here as a couple?"Her first stab of anxiety struck, deep in her gut. She was aware of the news of their engagement. Was she aware that they would be coming to the gala together? Probably not. She did not allow herself to believe that Luca Rossi would be that daft, to bring something as raggy as h

    Hazel Jacobs.Luca Rossi was an intimidating man sure to say, it's what the magazines said of him, it's what those bloggers wrote. He would never budge, never answer any questions, would rarely accept any interviews. A walking mystery. How did it feel, to be the lady clinging unto his arm on the very night of the gala, getting introduced at his fiancee, putting up a fake smile and pretending to be in love, while at the same time pretending that his arm was not the only thing keeping you from falling apart, shrivelling into dust under the stare and scrutiny of the critiques of the upperclassmen. It felt like they were all waiting to judge her, to judge her outfit, her manner of speech, her smile, her appearance. Hazel has never felt to watched in her life. "Good evening miss Jacobs." A lady approached her with a sly smile. Her silver blue dress appeared like ice against her pale skin, her light grey hair and bright blue eyes only complimenting the entire appearance of a snow queen

    "Wake up!" It came with a loud splash of water upon her skin. Hazel woke with a loud scream, panting and out of breath she stared into the eyes of her would be killer. She felt tears well up in her eyes. That woman....that woman in that strange dream looked like her. A lot like her. It looked as though she was being shown something..... being told a story of something that could have very much have been a previous life. She wanted to stay there, she wanted to not wake up from it. She wanted to understand her connection to that strange woman."You have the audacity to fall unconscious do you not?" Alva sneered at her. "You will not sleep for a second under my watch Hazel Jacobs, not unless it is in your death!" Alva Rogers concluded. Hazel's eyes fell to the ground, she had no words to say.Her spirit was weak and her willingness to fight and beg was already melting away. Perhaps she was starting to realize... Starting to come to terms with the fact that she could not plead her

    Luke paced back and forth. He was tracing out all the details of his plan in mind, doing his absolute best to leave no stone unturned in his mission. Luca was seated in a corner of the room, food and water hand not touched his moth since his wife went missing.They were begining to fear for his wellbeing. His eyes were droopy and he was barely talking to anyone. He seemed so out of touch with his current surroundings. So much that they all feared he was already losing his mind. He would not talk at all when spoken to and any food brought before him was quickly pushed or kicked away. They learned to leave him be for a while. "Will he be okay?" Laz asked as he gazed upon his brother, his heart was filled with pity for him. None of then had ever seen Luca this way before.He was always very strong.... Always very strong in every situation... Not even once had something like this occured to anyone in there lineage for a very long time. "I believe he will..." Luke breathed. "What

He might not be a human being, but he cared for her, that she was sure of, that was enough for her. That man cared for h

    When Hazel's eyes finally fluttered open, she woke up in her bed in her and Luca's room. Rays of sunlight were seeping in through her window and strangely enough, all the pain she felt from the night before was gone.The memories came rushing to her like a speeding train and her eyes widened in memory of it all. "Hazel... Are you okay?" She turned her head quickly to see Luca standing by the foot of the bed. His eyes were reddish, his hair entirely rough. He still had his clothes in from last night, stained by dirt and dust, and even a smear of blood. She stared at him with cold eyes, feeling bile rise in the back of her throat. Luca walked towards her cautiously with worried eyes, reaching for her face with his fingers. "Hazel are you okay?" He asked again. "Do not touch me." She snapped, flinching away. Luca's eyes widened, and he took a step back, watching her cautiously. "I am sorry I did not mean...""To lie to me?" She seethed, glaring daggers at him. Luca stared at he

She does not know what she will tell him when he returns but she knows what she would ask him for... The truth. One way or another, the truth has to come out tonight.By hook or by crook, she will not allow herself be left in the dark anymore by these people who absurdly believe that they knew what is best for her.

It was starting to get dark afterall, so he should be home anytime soon. They had long since stopped eating dinner downstairs at the table with

    Hazel sat on the edge of the bed that night with the book in her hands and her elbows leaning against her thighs.She knew not what to do with this piece of information, what was all these implying?She turned to Luca on the bed where he lay still, breathing softly. His chest rising and falling. He looked so at peace.His long lashes were fluttered closed and his hand was resting upon his chest, which rose and fell in a peaceful state. What was the writer implying? What did the wolf things mean? Is Luca some sort of.... Shape shifter?That is not even possible that is the kind of stuff that happens in fairy tales and folklore. There is simply absolutely no way in heavens any of it could be real. Right?Hazel remembered the second paragraph of the damned note again. Cut him with a knife?Never, not even she was crazy she would not dare cut her husband with a knife. Especially not over some stupid note written by some obscene mystery writer. Luca belongs in her heart now. He ha

    They had both entered the shower together after they had both had their fill of each other. He washed her with his hands. She felt pretty sore down there and she could barely stand on her own.He had prepared a bath for her by himself and carried her from the bed gently, she was already very tired and sleepy. How could she not be? She had had two more orgasms when he slipped into her. Her legs were weak and the area between her legs was sore from the size and action of his member inside her. She enjoyed every moment of it no doubt, she was quite sure she would be ready for another pretty soon. Luca circled her with his arms and pressed a kiss against her forehead. They were both sweaty and in need of a shower so he carried her to the bat tub he had already prepared, gently laying her in the water. He entered behind her and they both soaked in the bubble bath. He begun to wash her body for her not long later. She closed her eyes, enjoying the sensations of his hand against he

    His lips enclosed around her nipples and she moaned, tangling her fingers into his hair. His fingers found there way to her panties again, parting it and sliding into her lower lips. He pumped his fingers in and out sensually, while his lips continued their suckle around her breasts. Whimpers and moans continued to escape her lips continually. The sound of her pleasure filling the room as she drew closer closer to her climax. Luca pulled away for a brief moment to admire the look of sheer pleasure on her face. He moved his fingers faster and her grip around him tightened, her moans increasing. "Yes... Please don't stop..." She pleaded. Luca smiled, he no intentions of stopping at all. He was enjoying this too, almost as much as she was. The look on her face, the sounds eliciting her lips, all of it was a perfect combination to drive him mad. His hardness impossibly worsened as she bit down on her lower lip. "I am so close..." She whimpered, thrashing around slightly on the
