Luca's soul was engrossed in the mouth-watering french toast he took as breakfast that morning.All credit to Maid Hannah who Nica tried to send away the previous day.As funny as it could sound, Luca was capable of harming anyone who tried to remove Hannah from his villa, even Hannah herself dares not leave."Perfect or delicious... What's the word for it?" He mumbled and took the glass of water before him.His ears picked up footsteps and his head easily predicted they were Nica's.Luca pretended he didn't hear and resumed consuming his french toast when she appeared at the open door of the dining room in her white night robe that had flower paintings all over."Hey, you're here"Nica moved in and had her seat on one of the chairs.She had woken up to discover he wasn't with her on the bed and that got her worried and thinking.Did he let her sleep alone?She recalled them watching a series on Netflix last night in the living room after dinner and must have slept off since she doesn
Luca Antonio has never tried to be discreet in his relationship with women, especially the ones he gets in bed. He never believed a day would come when he would be bothered about getting caught with a woman by another woman he cares about. Linda was somewhere in Classy Chic and he was worried she would see him with his unwanted betrothed, Nica. Why was he feeling this way towards her? And as usual, he would hear those whispers, bringing theories that she was doing this to him with her extraordinary abilities. He just needed a moment to talk things out with her and-- Only if he knew, he wouldn't have opted to escort Nica down to a boutique he had no idea would be Classy Chic.Now he had to pray silently that he wasn't caught with her. Luca Antonio was not a religious person but still believed prayers can be answered when one mumbles the desires of his heart. They entered the building to see the number of customers who roamed around to shop for dresses of their choice. 'Fvck' He
Never have Luca Antonio felt rejected by a woman other than Lucia until today.His sister didn't want to associate herself with him anymore and have somehow convinced Linda to be part of the campaign.Perhaps, Linda was doing this of her own will.She looked him dead in the eyes and walked away like she had no idea who he was.Does that mean the moment they had together meant nothing to her?She doesn't need him anymore just as Lucia has claimed.Luca would have gone after her but the crowd had him trapped in the middle.He couldn't tell what was going on with his feelings towards her.On a normal day with a normal woman, he would never chase after her after getting snubbed.Moreover, he never gets snubbed by women, they always want him but Linda was not a normal woman.She was a mysterious woman who crashed into his pool and possess extraordinary abilities that no human should posses.Linda was no regular human woman and things are different for her.He might need to talk to her with
Luca had managed to break off from the crowd of people who wanted his autograph and vanished in a direction they could no longer find him.Enid was right. He needed bodyguards but not to protect himself, to protect the crowd from him instead.They wouldn't let him go even when he tells them he is done.After many avails to find him turned futile, the people dispersed into different to resume shopping and the others left.He knew Nica would be out of the fitting room anytime soon and would not hesitate to cling to him in the public where cameras would immediately flash on them.Luca finally stepped out of his hiding spot and found his way stealthily into the corridor that lead to the fitting room.That was where he met Saleswoman Mia who was about to open the door of one of the VIP fitting rooms.She was carrying four shopping bags which contained the Mermaid X brand gown for Nica."Mr Luca, you're here," She said and he quickly approached her."Is she done?" Luca asked and looked to e
It was a silent drive from the airport back to Classy Chic.The employed driver was usually responsible for driving to the airport to collect the boutique's delivery and when he wasn't available, one of the saleswomen got it done but today was different.Lucia just wanted to get away from the boutique's environment, far from her brother who she now held a grudge against and decided to take Linda with her.Luca obviously had his eyes on her like every other chick in his life who he dumps.She would not let Linda suffer the same fate.Well, every woman who wants to hook up with CEO Luca knows it would never lead to a relationship and it wasn't a hidden secret.The motion of the Ferrari 812 GTS came to rest behind the boutique and she alighted with Linda who still had a running mind. A part of hers was worried CEO Luca would still be around and see her again. She tried not to worry herself about him but it was almost impossible. Lucia unlocked the trunk of the vehicle thereby revealin
Linda finally came to halt at the side of the road on the street and tears poured out of her eyes for no exact reason.Was she jealous? Or was she angered because CEO Luca turns out not to be the man she thinks of him to be?What would he think? Seeing her attack his new wife who came to cause trouble.She felt his presence approaching and quickly rose to her feet to continue running but Luca caught her swiftly by the hand from behind.He pulled her closer to himself and looked into her pure eyes which glared innocence, it was filled with tears."Let me go, CEO Luca" She cried struggling with him but he would not."Let us talk, Linda" Luca whispered into her ears and she scoffed, and answered, "There is nothing to talk about, go away"She tried to push him away but he stood firm and his husk voice sounded, "I was not asking"Her countenance changed immediately and she tilt her head to see the frown on his face.Without warning, he swept her off her feet, carrying her in his arm and wa
And just as Luca predicted earlier, Linda had joined the list of women who could reach the darkness of his heart and not get lost.She was right. He was no longer scared of death and lived as a man ready for death.He had no idea Linda would know so much about the mafia.He thought she wouldn't understand, even if she explained.Linda revealed she was a killer just like him. Does that mean she had a cold-hearted side just like him?She says they deserved it and asked him the question he was yet to answer within.The people he had killed. Do they deserve it?How could she get to the core of his emotion? Only Nico and Lucia were capable of it and not even to this extent."The people you have killed, why did you do it?" He managed to ask and she shook her head."That's the mistake you make, they are not people, not humans. Demons and all sorts of evil creatures like my father, every creature I've killed were bad and deserved death. I've never killed the innocent""Your thought is many an
Luca alighted from the Uber which came to stop at the side of the road and the vehicle drove away, leaving him to raise his head to the glass villa before him.He slides his hands into his pocket and as he got closer, the gates pulled open for him to enter.He was approaching the entrance door when he heard a 'meow' noise and turned to see his cinnamon-furred cat running towards him from the corner of the building while being chased by a chubby woman who kept screaming, "Sonia!"She paused abruptly when she noticed his presence, "Mr Antonio"The cat wriggled its til and moved around Luca's leg while meowing.Luca forced a smile and took the creature as he went low on, "Hey, Sonia"She must have picked his scent when he came through the gates.It's been days since he last saw her."You getting a lil bigger" He rubbed her forehead and then turned to the chubby woman behind him.That was Clara, the cat sitter Luca Antonio had hired for Sonia after he bought her at a pet store a few month
