ELENA'S POV

It had been three days since we had gone to Paris but we were back now and for the last three days, Luca had avoided me.

I knew he was home, I knew he came home late at night, I didn't want to bother him because I knew he was doing it purposefully.

Leaving home before 4 am and coming back by 11 pm was not normal at all, I barely caught a glimpse of the man within the last few days.

Thankfully I was checking in with Lorenzo his right hand who said Luca had given him the permission to find out things about the family's business and through him, I got to know that Luca hadn't received a text from the reaper for the last few days after we got back from Paris but I didn't know if Luca had stopped looking.

Apparently, the reaper had left a message telling him to stop digging but if it was the Luca I knew, he wouldn't stop, he would take that as an insult to his power and he would make sure to find that person but now that he wasn't letting me in on anything, I didn't know what

    LUCA'S POV It had been three days. Three fucking days.And it was torture.Maybe I had been the immature one by staying away but I was completely put out by her words that day and it had sent my mind into a mess.“Who else will be there?” I was on the phone with Lorenzo as I sat on the couch in the living room.“Sources say Carlos is coming over too”That got my attention immediately.Carlos, as in the heir of one of the most powerful families in the mafia world? Interesting. “I think the rest are just some random Dons that you don't have to worry about except maybe Carlos. That man is a snake. Heard he got a name for himself. Annihilator. He's dangerous.” Lorenzo explained, his tone sounding muffled.“I don't care about him. Have you found anything about Sam?” I asked, changing the subjectI don't know why Carlos was coming over, why fly all the way just because Kiara had died? They were not related, he had no business here in fact.A small voice in my head told me that this meetin

    ELENA'S POV “Cheers to a life well spent. Henry would be proud of his daughter” the man to my left had said.We had been here for a few hours already but this was the first time that someone had actually spoken.I was sitting across the table from Luca who had been glancing at me for a long time while I effectively ignored it.What he had said had made me feel like I was inferior. The way he had spoken about Kiara that day made me know he saw her as someone who could take care of herself so why couldn't he see me the same way?The very thought was annoying to me.I huffed in my seat, the red evening gown I was wearing sliding up my lap as I crossed my legs.The man beside me with patches of red hair glanced down at my legs before giving me a grinRemind me why I didn't like men again. There were girls here, planted at the side of their men or somewhere off in the room.After a few clinks of glasses, the man at the head of the table stood up.“We have a special guest with us today.

    ELENA'S POV “Luca, put the gun down” Another man said, his beady eyes fixed on me.I was literally suffocating already. God, why did this have to happen to me right here?How could I explain it?!“There's no need to draw weapons” another person said yet the mother fucker had a pistol trained at me.Luca didn't budge, his eyes had dimmed to an inhumane level and I wondered if he was still himself. It looked like he had lost all control and just wanted to kill someone.“Drop your weapons” Luca said calmly while Carlos stood up, his mask of indifference still etched on his handsome face.“We don't let the women steal. You know that” the man who I had stolen from breathed out, his eyes briefly darting down to the barrel of the gun pressed at his neck.“He's not wrong” another person said.“I didn't steal from you!” I countered, my eyes wild.The man's eyes widened. “You bitch, dㅡ”That was as far as Luca let him get before hitting him across the head.There was a loud thud and the man fe

    ELENA'S POV “Are you gonna talk?” I asked, leaning on the door way, taking note of how his muscles flexed under his thin shirt as he brushed his teeth that night.It had been a full hour since we had gotten back and it was almost midnight.“Can we just go to bed, Elena?” He asked, frustrated.“You mean, you want me to go back to my room?” I asked, pushing myself off the doorway.He looked at me through the mirror. “Yes, if you can”“No, I can't. There. I said it. This is fucking childish, Luca” I frowned at him.Is this how it would always be? Us shying away from matters like this? No, I couldn't let it go like this. We would solve it.“Elena, why are you hell-bent on it. I said I don't mind what happened… it's not big deal and I understand, Why are you pushing it?” he looked down to drop his toothbrush by the edge of the sink before running a hand through his hair.“Because you're tense. Something's up with you. I swear that I take all my medications everyday at the right time” I qu

We fit perfectly. Him and I.“You're up” he said with a grin as I tried to block out the light from filtering into my eyes.He looked at the blinds that made the light stream In and he put his hands on his legs.“Do you need me to close that?”, “No” I said groggily trying to roll over to my side.He laughed, a deep melodious sound that echoed though the room.“You sure? I could also shoot at the sun for trying to get my girl blind” he joked.“Very funny” I muttered even though his words made my heart skip a beat.Wow.“Come here” he got over to my side and helped me up.I was standing in front of him with a frown on my face. “What are you thinking about this morning”His eyes looked hungry as he swept his gaze over me. “Oh you don't

    ELENA'S POV“I swear to god, if you're planning to kill me, I'll haunt you for eternity” I grumbled, looking out of the car window as the sun set across the horizon.He smiled and looked at me, a calm look on his face. “The idea doesn't seem that bad,” he said with a slight chuckle.I sent him a glare and focused on my phone that was lying on my lap. “Seriously, Luca. We've been driving for an hour and still nothing. Where are you taking me?” I asked.“Be patient for a second” he said simply, taking a sharp turn off the roads.I struggled to keep my seat as I clutched the seatbelt. “What the heck, Luca? Are you trying to get us killed?” My eyes widened in horror He spared me a glance and laughed.The man fucking laughed.“Is this funny?”, I asked, noting how the place was becoming dark and the only thing I could think about was how easy it would be to kill someone here.“No, it's not. Sorry If I gave you a scare” he finally apologized, his gaze fixed on the pitch-dark path illuminate

But I don't think so. That won't light” I said matter of factly.He raised the lighter for me to see and after a few sparks with the lighter, the sticks he had gathered, burst into a shower of sparks and flames Turning to me with a triumphant grin, he tilted his head. “Thought you said it wouldn't light up,” he said with a grin when I threw a Marshmellow at him.“Careful, that's our food”, he said laughing out loud.I wanted to throw another at him but I paused, the sound of his laughter startling him.This was a rare sight. Seeing him laugh without a care in the world. It made my

According to him, everyone except his mum was a pain in the ass.“We shouldn't waste any more time,” his uncle said, with a sigh.Luca nodded, his face changing back to the mask of indifference.Over the last week, I had only seen him in a good mood, we had gone on dates, outings,

It's just a dream” a voice that was unmistakably Luca's reached my mind that was clouded with fog.I opened my eyes and spent a few seconds trying to adjust to the bright sunlight that was filtering through the blinds before I could focus on Luca who was above me, his arms holding my hands tight.“Luca…” I whispered.He

We did do our best. Things went haywire at the last moment” he explained.“Things went haywire?! Paulo, I paid you three million just to do this one thing. Get rid of the bitch but you're telling me things went haywire?! Do you know how much that cost me?!” She yelled, her eyes wide.The man clothed in black clothes that seemed to buff out his muscular physique snapped back immediately. “And do you know how much it cost me?! 28 men! Dead! Those were the best in my ranks and they're 6 feet deep now! What do you think this is to me?!”Bianca almost flinched when he advanced towards her but he stopped himself in time and looked away, his body brimming with anger.“As I can see, things didn't just go haywire.

    LUCA'S POV My shoes clacked against the stoned floor as I walked into the small shelter where I had discovered years back and made mine.I probably looked like a murderer or an assassin with the way that my cloak seemed to blend in with the night. Good. I felt like a murderer anyway and I was entering this building with every intention to kill.After I drove Elena home, I helped her to bed, made sure she was fine, and left as soon as she dozed off.Exactly 12:07 am now.“Don Luca…” someone's voice came from the shadows matching my steps as I neared my destination.“Yes, Lorenzo?” I asked, twirling my keys around my index finger while my eyes were fixed straight ahead.“The men are clearing up the scene and they're almost done”“And who's my guest for tonight?” I asked, stopping at the door.“The driver. The last car to tumble over. Thankfully he had only sustained a few hits to the head so he's alive and in the perfect shape to talk. We've…treated him good already” Lorenzo's voice dr

    ELENA'S POV “Hold on!” Luca yelled from his car before he rolled his window up just as a bullet bounced on it.Fuck, that was close. I had always wondered why he had made all his cars bulletproof and now I was seeing why.Lorenzo who was still returning fire turned to me. “The boss?” He yelled over the sound of tires and guns.I gripped the steering tighter. “Yes!”Looking into the rearview mirror, I spied 5 enemy cars. 5. Okay, that was still a lot.Luca's car sped up, overtaking mine and speeding to the front of the road where the alley ended.What in the fuck was he doing.Lorenzo stopped shooting and looked at what was happening, a look of confusion on his face.“Wait, pull over!” He suddenly yelled at meI didn't turn to look at Lorenzo but my eyes widened. “Are you crazy, they're right behind us!”Luca's car reached the mouth of the alley and with a skilled drift of his car, he swerved his car to the side to block the entrance of the alley.How were we supposed to leave?!

I'm sorry. I just lost it when I found out you had a connection with the person who tried to kill my boss. Don Luca has helped a lot of people so when I did my research and I found out that you knew him… I just assumed the worst. Was he your friend? I saw a photo of you both year

    ELENA'S POVI had been here for about 20 minutes already and the atmosphere was silent as I had placed my head on the bed frame, letting his run his fingers through my hair.After he had told me that, we hadn't spoken about it. I was silent and so was he. We just stayed in the calm environment saying nothing.“You know… I want you to hate me he suddenly spoke up and that made me want to raise my head up but his strong arms pulled me down.Another testament to how weak I was. He was injured and still far stronger than I was.“What the fuck does that mean? Why would you want me to hate you?” I asked confused.“Because then I'd know that what my dad said was true. He used to tell me that I was unlovable and I did believe him so tell me how it's possible that you love me?” His grip on my head loosened.I used the opportunity to release myself from his grip. “You're not. You're the best thing that happened to me. We've both come out from homes that tried to restrict us from growing but th

Luca's car.I had called and called but he hadn't answered so I quickly left with Gareth only to receive a call from Doctor Giovanni who said that Luca was in an accident and he thought I should know about it.Thankfully Gareth had raced to the hospital but now he didn't want me to enter the room. I couldn't even see the insides of the goddamn room.“Gareth, let me go” I thrashed in his arms, kicking wildly.“Ma'am, I think you need to wait for the doctor to give his permission for you to go in” he said, trying to make me see reason.I heard the sound of rushing feet and I turned around to see Bianca rush in, her hair messy and her eyes wild.“Is it true?” She asked.I turned my face the other way and I heard her gasp. “Oh fuck, is he alright?” She didn't wait for me to answer, she started marching

I'm here to tell you that you're in charge of her and no goddamn thing must happen to her”, I said, my eyes fixed on Elena who was sliding her hand across the counter.Bianca forced a smile and straightened up, the tiny shirt she wore hiking up to show her a bit of her bra.“When did you start dressing like that?”, I frowned at her.She looked down at her body like she hadn't realized what she was wearing. “Well it's a strip club after all”“Don't give me that shit, you're not one of the girls and you weren't wearing that before I came here” I frowned at her.Her smile faltered. “Oh, there's someone watching me?”“My club, remember?”“I also remember you entrusted

Is it safe?” I nodded immediately, stroking her hair. “Completely. The woman in charge, she'll take care of you and you know I won't ever put you in a place where your safety isn't guaranteed” She was clearly thinking about something judging by the little creases on her lips. “I do wanna know though. How are you comfortable trusting me with this, In your space when you know what I am” she raised her eyes to me and I melted at the sight. When did I get this smitten over this woman? “You're not a what, Elena. I don't know what you think you are but I know who you are and do you wanna know who you are?” I kissed her forehead softly.
