Psychopathic love. CHAPTER 6
Kiara had the best sex of her life 2 days again. She couldn’t get it off her mind. Anytime she thought about it, she always felt giddy, like a high schooler falling in love for the first time. Since he stayed over the weekend, they exchanged a lot of glances, with unspoken words communicated through their eyes. She got up from her bed, around 9 A.M., and decided that she wanted to make some iced tea in the kitchen. She originally wanted to pay a visit to Luca in his room, but upon realizing that his door was locked, she postponed it till later and decided to make breakfast for him.Meanwhile, Luca was in his room, talking with someone over the phone. “Just do it and make it snappy too,” he yelled, bringing his voice down to a hushed whisper, “Remember you can’t let anyone see you, okay?” The foreign voice over the phone gave an affirmative reply, which made Luca hum in satisfaction.“Damian mustn't know about this either, otherwise it’ll all be screwed up,” he reminded, making sure t

The person who had barged into Damian’s office was Luca. He held up his phone, signaling that there was video and pictorial evidence. Killian froze like a deer caught in headlights. Luca moved to Damian’s table, swiping through his gallery and showing him the surveillance videos and pictures of him transferring the money into a briefcase, before heading home. Damian’s eyes flickered from the screen to his accountant as he was rendered speechless.Damian banged his fist on his desk angrily, standing up, “Who are you doing this dirty work for?” He fumed, pointing at Killian. “Do you want to destroy my company, huh? Do you?” He sneered, shaking his head. “You’re fired, get out of my office,” he said calmly now, his voice low. “I said NOW!” He yelled as Killian scrambled outside. Damian sat back in his chair, running his hands through his hair frustratedly. Thankfully, the accountant had managed to take only 250,000 dollars out of the company’s bank account. It wouldn’t leave a dent, but

“Kiara,” Luca said, dressed in a shirt and joggers. “Hey, how are you doing?”“I’m talking to my precious babies right now, leave us alone. They want to spill the beans,” She giggled, turning back to Katie and Sam. “So, Zach Mclaughlin got caught by the teacher, looking into a girl, Amanda's skirt. So, basically they like suspended him for a week because of his provocative behavior.” She laughed, shaking her head, “On the other hand, Sarah and Jack were caught holding hands during recess, and now everyone thinks they’re dating when they aren’t. Sarah also told me that she’s scared that Jack has cooties.” She rolled her eyes.Kiara talked and talked with Katie and Sam, learning about past events that had happened in school amongst other gist. Katie glanced at the clock on the wall beside her, before looking back at Kiara. “Well, Sam and I have to go. We have a picnic to attend,” she stated happily, “Sam, get up!” She nudged him gently.“Oh, where?” Kiara asked, ruffling her brows. It

“I don’t understand…what do you mean by that?” Kiara stepped back, her feelings hurt more than ever. She felt like a total fool, standing here before him, venting and crying. Only for him to blatantly deny her.“No babe. That’s not what I meant,” he facepalmed, feeling very stupid, “I mean, since it triggers you so much, we don’t have to label it. We can just leave it as/is. We don’t have to be boyfriend and girlfriend if that bothers you too much to think about.” Kiara’s eyes softened, he was so caring towards her. She felt really lucky to have Luca right then and there at that moment. A sense of relief washed over her as she was pulled closer to Luca with his arm around her waist. “Been waiting for this moment,” he groaned sniffing her. He missed her smile, her laugh, her scent, her body, everything about her. He felt like the luckiest man alive to have the Kiara Lux in his arms.Then, finally, his lips brushed hers, soft and tender. The sensation sent a shiver down her spine, awak

Kiara looked around the living room, confused as to what was happening. Her parents seldom fought, so this was an odd sight to see. The whole area had rubbish strung across it, a vase had been smashed against the wall, which left a dent, and scattered into bits on the floor and her parents were fuming.It was as if they didn’t even notice her entry because they just kept on arguing. “No! No! You don’t get to tell me that bullshit, Damian. What the hell’s wrong with you?” Maria put her hand on her forehead, feeling queasy. The whole argument was making her feel sick to her stomach.Damian scoffed, his fists clenched, “Do you think I wanted to fire him? Do you?!” He paced around the room, “I was presented with evidence, valid evidence and you’re telling me that I’m in the wrong? You must be crazy.” He vehemently said, stepping closer to her.“I refuse to believe that, Damian! For God’s sake, why on earth do you think that my nephew of all people would abscond with your money? I’m 100% c

Maria frowned, her voice quivering as she pulled the shard of glass out of her daughter’s hands.“Baby girl, please.” She pleaded, her eyes bloodshot red. Damian pocketed his hands, pursing his lips as he observed Kiara. She was an absolute bloody mess and guilt washed over him as he stepped closer to him, concern filled in his eyes.“You’ve hurt yourself, darling.” He mumbled, rushing to the cabinet to grab a first aid kit. He quickly took out absorbent cotton and placed it on her palm.Kiara fell onto the chair behind exasperatedly as she groaned. Her hand ached badly and it was still bleeding a lot.She pressed cotton wool full of spirit on her palm, wincing as the alcoholic liquid seeped into her cut. She was now just realizing how stupid her reaction was. It’d take a while for the wound to heal, but she had no one else to blame but herself. It really peeved her whenever her parents fought, she absolutely hated it.This time around, they weren’t even listening to her. It was as if

“Pumpkin.” Luca turned around to meet Katie’s eyes. “How are you?”“I’m fine.” Her eyebrows creased as she glanced between the two. She found it odd to have met them here, all by themselves. “What are you guys doing here?”“I-Uh, we only came to spend a little bit of time together,” Luca lousily shrugged his arms, kneeling to look at them both. “Can’t you see she has a boo-boo?”Kiara lifted her wounded hand to show the kids, “Oh, woah! Aunt Kiara, what hurt you like that?” Katie exclaimed, moving closer and observing her hand. “Oh, just a little accident at home, nothing to worry about, hm?” She ruffled Katie’s hair.“It’s going to leave a gnarly scar!” Sam said, giggling as she looked back at her Dad.Kiara nodded her head, “I agree, it sure is.”“Who brought you guys? Tiffany’s mom picked you guys up earlier, and I thought you’d be having a sleepover?” He looked at Katie, searching for answers to deviate from his and Kiara’s presence.“Well, yeah, she did. But, then Mom showed up,

“Pretty little thing like you shouldn’t be alone.”“He’s right, you look like you need some company,” he murmured lowly, as they both circled her. She could feel her heart pounding in her chest so fast that she couldn’t think straight.She glanced towards where Luca was and noticed that he was now on another phone call, totally distracted. She instinctively took a step back from the guys, moving into the barely lit alleyway.“S-step away from me.” Her voice trembled as she gripped the canned drinks tightly, ready to throw them if she had to. That was the only way she could defend herself right now.“Oh, feisty, we’re gonna have fun with you.” Tallie chuckled, flicking his tongue out lewdly. Kiara grimaced, disgusted by his mannerisms. She felt fingertips crawl up her skin, and that sent shivers down her spine.Not the good kind of shivers.They closed in on her, and one grabbed her wrist tightly. Panic shot through her body, but before she could even scream, she saw a quick blur of mo

Kiara was standing in front of her open box, staring at the mess of clothes she had put inside earlier. Her fingers gripped a particular dress. She hesitated, but she shook her head and threw it aside. 'Does it matter what I pack? I am leaving.' she thought. 'Leaving the only home I have ever known.' Leaving everything behind.Her phone vibrated beside her and the notification read: Flight confirmed: 10 AM tomorrow.She exhaled slowly, feeling the weight of it settle over her."This is it." She said to herself.*********Across from Kiara's city, Donald’s phone buzzed.He picked it up and looked at the screen, expecting nothing important. But when he saw the notification, his heart pounded.GPS Movement Detected – Kiara Lux: Airport Route SetHe tightened his grip on the phone."No," he said in a low tone.He stood up from the chair, running a hand through his hair.'She is leaving.

Detective Harrison had been on Luca's case for months now with no positive results, no evidence to link him to the crimes.He sat in his office, flipping through a stack of photos that had been put across his desk earlier that day.Every single one of the photos showed Luca with his men. One photo showed when he took off his mask in the warehouse during Kiara's kidnap, the other showed when he tried to take the documents from Damian. His clothes matched. The photos showed him at different instances of Kiara's murder attempts. All the evidence pointed to one to Luca.The evidence had come from an unexpected source. Harrison glanced up, his gaze narrowing at the man sitting across from him. It was Donald.The same man who saved Kiara multiple times.Harrison tapped the stack of photos together. “You’ve been keeping an eye on him for a while, haven’t you?”Donald leaned back in his chair, arms crossed. “Since the day he warned me to stay away from Kiara.”Harrison arched a brow. “You too

After a few days, Kiara was finally discharged. The hospital doors slid open, and Kiara stepped outside, with Maria and Damian closely behind her. Catching her breath in the cool evening air. It felt different. Not the air itself, but how it touched her skin, how it felt against her face. Everything around her felt distant, like she was walking through a world that had moved on while she had been stuck somewhere else. She wrapped her arms around herself, her movements slow and hesitant. Maria stood beside her, watching her closely. She had barely left her side since she woke up. As they approached the car, her concern was evident in the way she kept glancing at her, waiting for her to say something. “ Are you okay baby?” Maria asked. Kiara nodded. Damian, who was putting their belongings in the trunk, stood at the driver's side of the car. "Are you sure amore?But Kiara didn't respond.Damian didn’t push. He opened the car door for her, waiting until she was seated before ge

Flashing red and blue lights filled the night.The party had turned into chaos as the guests murmured in hushed voices as paramedics rushed Kiara towards the exit, her body limp on the stretcher.Damian pushed past security, his expression unreadable as he followed closely. “I’m coming with her.”“Sir, we need space,” a paramedic started, but the warning died when Damian shot him a sharp glare.“She’s my daughter,” he said flatly. “I’m not leaving her side.”The paramedic hesitated but nodded. “Get in.”As the ambulance doors shut, Damian sat beside Kiara, watching as the medics checked her vitals. His hands clenched into fists. Even in her unconscious state, Kiara could still feel his touch lingering. It felt familiar, like she had felt it before.And just like that, her mind slipped into a dream.And then, the past pulled her in.***Laughter surrounded her as she spun in circles, her arms wrapped around Donald’s neck.“Put me down!” she giggled, swatting his shoulder.Donald smirk

Luca, on the other hand, has been going crazy since his kids were taken from him. They were all he had left. His neighbors heard him breaking things so they called the police. Luca was taken to a facility after his tests came positive for PTSD and disruptive behavior. Days passed, and he stayed quiet. Cooperative, pretending to be fine. The doctors bought it. They thought he was getting better. Not until one evening, during a shift change, Luca made his move. A nurse had forgotten to properly secure the door after checking his vitals. Perfect. This was his chance to escape from this hellhole.Luca slipped out, moving down the hall, his heart pounding.He stayed close to the walls, avoiding eye contact with staffs. One wrong move and they’d drag him back. His bare feet barely made a sound against the cold floors; the exit was close. Just a few more steps. Then— “Hey! "What are you doing?” A security guard spotted him. Luca bolted, running with all his might.Alarms sou

It's been three months and Kiara has not had the guts to go out due to the trauma she faced in Luca's hands. Although Luca has been away from the Lux family for months now, Kiara still feels like he's watching her. She still hasn't told her family the truth about her relationship with Luca and his involvement in the kidnap.The Lux home had never been this quiet before. There was no music playing from Kiara’s room, no late-night TV chatter, no laughter echoing through the halls.Maria sighed as she walked past the closed door of her daughter’s bedroom, hesitating for a moment before knocking softly.“Kiara, sweetheart?”She heard nothing.She knocked again. “It’s morning. You should eat something.”There was a long pause before a tired voice. “Not hungry.”Maria pushed the door open, stepping inside. Kiara was curled up on the couch by the window, staring blankly at her phone. The curtains were still drawn, blocking out the sunlight.Maria sat beside her, placing a gentle hand on her

A Few Months Later********************The courtroom was filled with quiet murmurs as lawyers shuffled papers and the judge prepared to begin. It was the final custody hearing for Sam and Katie, and Annie’s heart pounded as she sat at the plaintiff’s table, waiting for the moment that would decide everything. Across from her in the room, was Luca, who sat stiffly, his expression unreadable. He looked calm, but Annie knew better. This wasn’t the Luca she had once known. The man sitting before her had changed. For years, Luca had raised Sam and Katie without her, and for a time, they had been safe. But then, things changed. He became reckless. Cold. Dangerous although he had been that way, which was why Annie left him, she didn't think he would one day show his true colors to the kids.The judge, a woman in her late fifties with gray hair and sharp eyes, cleared her throat. “We are here today to finalize the custody arrangement for Samuel and Katherine Ettore." Ms. Annie, you may p

“Power’s out, completely out,” one of the nurses shouted in the dark hallway of the hospital. The emergency lights flickered off and on for a moment and then came back on, but the sense of unease had not.“Listen, we can’t stay here,” said Damian, his voice low as he looked around the nearly empty corridor. “This hospital isn’t safe anymore.”Maria nodded quickly, clutching Kiara’s hand tighter. “I’m scared for Kiara,” she said softly.Kiara, still shaken, couldn't say a word. She just sat there mopping. Harrison stood near the door, keeping his hand on his radio. “We need to move to a safer hospital. I’m calling for transport. We can't use my car. This place has been compromised, obviously.” Damian frowned. “Compromised? What do you mean?” “Not sure yet,” Harrison replied. “But when power is cut like that, and there are strange sounds in the hall, you can’t trust the security here.” Maria interjected, “So, where do we go?” Harrison sighed shortly. “There’s a private facility on

Kiara barely had time to react before Detective Harrison shoved her behind him, drawing his own weapon in one swift motion.“Drop the gun!” Harrison barked, his voice sharp and commanding.The intruder didn’t hesitate. He fired at Kiara but missed.A loud bang echoed through the room.Kiara screamed, instinctively ducking as the bullet slammed into a nearby vase, shattering it into pieces. Maria shrieked, stumbling backward, while Damian threw himself in front of her, shielding her from the masked man.Harrison didn’t waste a second. He fired back, forcing the masked man to dive for cover behind the couch.“Stay down!” Harrison shouted at Kiara, keeping his gun targeted at the intruder.The masked man didn’t stay hidden for long. In a blur of movement, he lunged out, knocking over a chair as he went towards Kiara.Her heart seized. He was coming straight for her.Harrison moved fast, stepping between them. Both Harrison and the masked man clashed violently, fists colliding in a flurry
