Savior

Chapter Seven

Luca's POV. 

Five fucking years! I still couldn't get over her. I had to move away from here thinking I would have gotten over my obsession with her, but it was not possible.

I had to pretend all my life that I hated her. I waited for this moment and all I needed was for her to love me back.

I had to make her deal that could put my entire hard work in a big problem just because I didn't want to see her with Miguel anymore, hoping I was going to have a chance with her. 

I wasn't sure about having sex with her yet, but I just wanted to know if I could get a chance with her. I didn't want to rush her, since I wanted to take things very slow.

The memories from.thag morning kept on flashing in my head. I had always fantasized about moment like that in the past and it almost happened, but I wanted things to be okay between the both of us first 

I think things were going in my favor when I got to discover that she was planning to divorce Miguel. I knew that this was going to happen, knowing fully well that he didn't have any feelings for her at the start.

He just wanted to use her. I wanted to let her know about it, but it seemed like she was really happy whenever she was with him, and there was no way she would belong words from the guy who she always banter.

"What did you want to see her for?" Maddie, who was sitting opposite me, questioned with a smile on her face. I could tell that she was not happy to see me in her house.

Priscilla had almost changed her sitting position just a few minutes after I was in their house. It was a shame she slept with her sister's husband. She was the real definition of a hoe!

"I guess she didn't tell you." I replied to Maddie, who had a confused expression on her face.

"Tell me what? Was there something she was supposed to tell me? You two can't possibly be dating." She answered back while I let out a soft chuckle.

I honestly thought Ria was in some kind of trouble after she told me she was entering her stepmother's room. I tried calling her number, but she wasn't picking up anymore.

"What made you think that way?" I questioned, with a serious expression on her face. What made them think the two of us couldn't be together? 

The countenance in the room changed entirely. It looked as if one collected their money.

"Oh please! What made you think that way? Apparently, she is now my personal assistant." I uttered, and I could see the change of expression on their face.

"Are you serious right now? Why do you have to pick her of all people? She is your brother's ex-wife! Don't you think that is insulting to your brother?" Priscilla sprang up to her feet. Why was she so worked up about the news?

I tilted my head to one side, with squinted eyes.

"He isn't my blood brother." I clarified things with her.

"The fact you slept with your..." I couldn't get to complete my sentence before I heard a voice right behind me.

"Who is asking for me?" She sounded so angelic, and I wanted to hear her screaming my name badly with that voice.

Priscilla answered her. Who was she expecting before? I could feel her leaving my back, and we got to maintain eye contact immediately when she came to my front.

She was putting on a casual outfit that was entirely different from the gown she left with this morning. Her hair was tied in a messy bun with glasses on.

How did she manage to get dressed that fast?

"Mr. Luca," her eyes were still in shock, and it looked as if I had a lot of explanations to do.

"We have to go now. Thank you very much." I mentioned to her mom before I stood up. My eyes indicating for her to go outside.

"I will see you later, Maddie." She walked right behind me as we then stepped out of the house.

"What do you think you are doing here? Why do you have to put me in a tough situation like this? What did you tell my mom and my sister?" Ria questioned me, but I didn't plan on replying to her. She almost destroyed all our plans.

"Why aren't you saying anything? I'm asking you a question!" She stepped in front of me, refusing to let me enter my car.

Her soft, plump lips caught my attention. I inhaled my breath sharply while I tried so hard not to look at her.

"Don't you ever get that close with me again." I warned her as she quickly left my front.

"I did it because you aren't answering my God damn question! I don't know the kind of trouble you already put me through." She stated, but I just ignored her and entered into the car.

"Get into the car and let's go." I instructed.

"Where are you going to? You can't just come here and tell me you are going somewhere without me having an idea of where you are going to." She fired back at me.

"It seems like you don't longer need this job.".I threatened her. I didn't mean to do that, but that was my only resort.

"What the fuck! I can't believe I am being threatened right now." She cussed out so loud as she then entered into the car, sitting in the passenger's seat.

"You have to believe it." 

"You are finally showing your true colors. I knew something was wrong when you were helping me. My hatred for you still remain the same though." She replied me, her hand on her waist.

If only she knew how hard it was for me to hide my feelings. If only she knew how hard it was for me to act this way towards her. 

"You are also showing your true colors. I just decided to help you since my brother considers me as his rival. He doesn't love you so I need to help someone who he doesn't love so bad so that will annoy the hell out of him." I explained to her.

"Stop saying shits like this, he loved me at some point in life." She opposed what I had said. Wait, was she still defending him after all what he had done to he?

It hurts me to see how ignorant she was about my brother.

"So did you get caught trying to sneak into their room?" I need to make sure that they were not suspicious about anything. The fact that they knew I might be having her back too. 

"I almost got caught if not for your arrival." She replied bluntly; her eyes were fixed on the rad with the aggressive stares. I saw her text, but I didn't know that was what she meant.

I thank goodness that I came really early.

"If Maddie or Priscilla ever lay their hand on you, let me know about it." I changed the entire topic. It must have been so hard staying in the house alone, and I totally understood her point of view when she questioned me about not putting her in trouble.

"I sent you a file; you should go through it." I mentioned to her, as she then removed her phone, which was in her pocket.

"Wait! Are things official already? Am I already your personal assistant?" She questioned, and I could sense the change in her mood already.

"Go through the files first." I instructed her, and she went silent going through her phone.

"Wait! I have to go out with you in the next two days?" She opened her eyes in shock, looking through the schedule I had.

"Yes! It's a party designed for billionaires and millionaires in the city. Miguel is going to be there also." I informed her.

"Wait! What?" Her voice trailed off in shock, and I could feel her gaze on me. There was nothing wrong with what I had just said.

"Why should I have to go there? You just said that he will be there." She questioned. I knew how hard she was going to find it hard to face him whenever she could get to see him.

"That will make me determine how qualified you are for the job." I replied to her.
