Chapter - 15

Be a good girl while I am gone

His words replay in my mind on a loop while I eat my waffles which andrea just served me. What does he think of himself? It's not like he owns me. How dare he? I have been nothing but polite to him and here he is chiding me like I am a spoilt kid.

I hump annoyed at his words and myself for getting this much bothered by him.

It's not like something dirty didn't come to your mind after hearing his words, my subconscious reminds me of my not so holy thoughts after hearing good girl from him. It's not my fault that man looks like a sex god any one will be smitten by him.

"You want some burger?"

I hear the man besides me ask.

.............

I am dying of laughter after hearing luca tell me another joke. I don't know what happened, what we talked or how I ended up laughing like a dying cat while clutching my stomach.

"Another one."

Luca says as he gets ready to kill me with yet another joke.

"No, luca please stop else I will literally die from laughing too much."

I say and put my hand in front to stop him.

I never bonded so quickly with someone. One moment we were just introducing ourselves and the other we are just brusting out laughing. I look up to see luca stuffing his mouth with fries. He gives off this friendly vibe that you can't resist. It seems so genuine just opposite to his brother who seems so stoic and serious all the time.

"Well what are your plans after this?"

Luca asks

"I don't know. I am a captive I don't think I have much say in it."

I see luca cringe after hearing my words. I mentally rebuke myself for coming across so harsh but I couldn't help it.

"It's not like that you are not a captive you can do whatever you want but you must stay inside till fratello says."

He says trying to console me.

"Yaa right."

I agree still grumpy over the fact that I am left here with absolutely nothing to do.

"You know you can help me plan out the trip and maybe come with me too."

"Trip?"

I interrogate.

"Ya, I am planning a trip and haven't really done much yet if you want you can help me out."

"Really."

I say beaming with joy.

I really wanted to travel across Italy and go on trips but I didn't get much time to do that as I joined in too early at work and since then I never really got time to think about a trip.

"And I can come too?"

I asks really wanting to come but making sure he doesn't have any problem.

"Ofcourse cognata (sister in law)."

I want to ask him what does this word cognata means but I let it go because many people call me by so many different nicknames that it gets tiring asking them what it means.

...........

"All the tickets are done."

I say closing the laptop and turning towards luca.

"Wow you are fast."

He says astonished at my speed.

"Ofcourse I had to otherwise all the tickets would have been sold out and I really wanted to go to this amusement park. You know I saw it on internet and it was really magical."

I tell him dreamily

He smiles and says

"You know if you really want it you could have just said and fratello would have the whole park booked by now."

I don't say anything and just nod. I see the smile on luca's face faltering.

"What is it?"

I ask him

"Nothing."

He try to deny but I ask him again.

"It's just that I didn't ask fratello about taking you on the trip."

I scrunch my eyebrows agitated that he think it's important to take his brother's premission about me like I am a child.

"His permission doesn't matter. If I want to go I will go."

I tell luca sternly indicating how little does his brother's premission matters.

Just then the doors burst open and I see lorenzo barging in. He is angry, you can clearly see it on his face. Someone pissed him off real bad. He looks at me and I see him relaxing a bit but before I can assess his emotions more he moves up the stairs.

..............

I don't know why I am standing here or why do I have to ask him before going. It's absurd.

No you are not going to ask him you are going to tell him. I repeat it in my mind.

Yes I am going to go in and tell that stupidly handsome man that I don't give a fuck about his premission and I am going on a trip.

With renewed confidence I open the door to his room and barge in.

"Listen lorenzo and listen good...

I stop myself when I see him standing in middle of his room in just a towel hanging low on his hips.

Well if this isn't a sight to behold.

I rake my eyes down his body. You can tell that he just came out of the shower. His hair is wet and the water droplets are flowing down from his chest to his delicious abs, the v of his torso and stopping at the towel.

This man is a beast.

I can tell that much by looking at his body.

"Sweetheart I know that you like my body but you can now tell me why you just barged in."

He says with a sinister smirk on his face after seeing my reaction to his half naked body.

"I II wanted to tell you you ...

I stutter.

Oh my god. This is so embarrassing. I turn around ready to leave after completely making a fool out of myself.

I can't talk to him with him just in a towel. It's too much distraction for my poor brain to function properly.

"I will come later."

I tell him with my back facing him while I quickly move towards the door.

I grab the door knob just about to leave. When he comes behind me and shuts the door.

Fuck I am screwed.

I curse internally.

"Tsk tsk tsk I think not sweetheart. Now that you have barged uninvitely in, you can't leave without my premission."

He says as his body presses against my back.

I gasp at the audacity of this man to talk about barging. I turn around and tell him.

"You out of all the persons should not talk about barging. You KIDNAPPED me."

I emphasise the word kidnapped.

He sighs and then leans in putting his forehead on my mine.

"I know amore (love) and I regret it. But it was the only solution that I had at that moment and now that I have gotten a hold of you. I can't seem to let you go."

He says while cupping my face.

I think my heart just skipped a beat. Him being so close to me and talking like that is making a whole zoo erupt in my stomach.

I look up into his beautiful sapphire eyes. They are beautiful. Without me knowing I trace my hand along his jaw while looking at him.

His eyes darkens and they shift towards my lips.

"Kuhu don't do that unless...

He stops speaking his eyes transfixed at my lips.

"Unless?"

I asks

"You want me to kiss you, to take your beautiful lips and kiss them until it's painful, until it's numbing, until it's all you can think of."

He says while tracing his thumb over my lower lip.

I just stand there and look at him speechless. I am literally short of words and my mind is a mess. Realising my lack of answer he moves back but before he could go any further away I tell him.

"Do it. Kiss me."
