Chapter 144 144
I just bit my lower lip and gripped his shirt. "A-Am I not allowed to hug you?" I asked and fixed my eyeglasses. "You said you're using me... Am I not allowed to request something from you like this? I-In exchange for you using me," I whispered and looked away from him.
I was stunned when Luca suddenly held my waist with both hands and effortlessly lifted me and made me sit on the kitchen counter. I just swallowed and held onto his shoulders in surprise. Luca stared intently at me; I felt like I would get burned by the intensity of his gaze.
"What a fucking lousy request," Luca mumbled, his eyes going down to my lips. "Request something better," he said before he crushed his lips on mine.
I instantly hugged his nape and responded to his hot and taunting kiss. I moaned against his soft lips and pulled him closer to me. Luca gently gripped my waist, then caressed it, before he put his hand inside my shirt. I unconsciously bit his lower lip when I felt his calloused hand on my soft skin. His hand went up until it reached my chest. He put his hand inside my bra and started fondling my breast.
My toes curled as a tingling sensation rushed through my veins. I just closed my eyes and kissed him with equal fervor, with equal need and hunger. I just let out a gasp when Luca suddenly removed his hand from my shirt. He lifted me again and took me off the kitchen counter.
"W-Where are we going?" I asked in between his kisses.
"In my room," Luca muttered as his lips went down my jaw, down to my neck.
I didn't protest and let him bring me to his room... I have no strength to decline anyway... because I want this too, I want him too.
WE SPENT THE whole day in his room, having sex all over again. It was wonderful, as always. Luca was really insatiable. It was as if he never ran out of energy when it came to this. The sky was almost dark when we decided to stop... My thighs felt like they were about to give out, so I asked him if we could rest.
I bit my lower lip and looked at Luca. He's just quiet, staring at the ceiling. It was as if he was thinking deeply about something. I just swallowed and held his hand. He was clearly startled from his thoughts and looked at his hand that I was holding. He looked at me afterward.
I smiled at him and pressed my forehead against his. I touched his cheek and gently caressed it. I closed my eyes. "Hoping for Vincenzo Luca Falcone's peace of mind," I muttered and gave him a soft kiss on his cheek.
After that, I opened my eyes and slightly moved away from him to look at him. Luca just stared back at me; I couldn't read what he was thinking. He just swallowed and lifted his hand to touch my cheek.
I smiled and held his hand that was on my cheek. It lasted for a moment, but he seemed to stop and immediately removed his hand from me. He looked away and immediately got up. I just looked at him in confusion when he walked to the bathroom.
I just got up and leaned against the headboard of the bed. I don't know what's holding him back, I know he'll never tell me.
After a few minutes, Luca came out from the bathroom with only a towel covering his lower body. He got some clothes and immediately got dressed. I was stunned when I noticed he wasn't wearing his pajamas.
"Luca, where are you going?"
Luca looked at me and wore his leather jacket. My eyes widened when I saw him take a gun from his drawer. "I told you I kill people, right?" he asked and put the gun on his back.
I couldn't answer. I just gripped the comforter tightly and swallowed.
"That's what I'm going to do... I will kill my victim and steal his fucking riches," he said coldly before he completely left the room.
I just bit my lower lip and sighed... It seems like he really kills people... It seems like there's still a lot I don't know about him.
I waited for Luca all night. I was here in the living room just reading a book, but my attention wasn't on it. I don't know why I was so restless. So many things were running through my mind... all I could think about was Luca.
I just looked at my phone to check the time. It's already 12:30 a.m. I sighed and let out a yawn. I just shook my head and continued reading my book. Just one more chapter. If Luca still doesn't come home after one chapter, I'll go to sleep first.
"My goodness! You're so heavy, Vincenzo!"
I stood up when I heard a woman's voice. I was stunned when I saw Luca who seemed to be very drunk while being helped by a familiar woman... Sasha.
Sasha looked at me. It seems like she was shocked seeing me here but she just smiled at me. "Hello, Crescent. Um, can you please help me?" she asked.
"O-Oh, sure..." I immediately went to her and took one of Luca's arms and put it over my shoulder. "Y-You can go now, Sasha. I'll take care of him," I just said and gave her a faint smile.
"Are you sure?" she asked, seemingly worried.
I just nodded and tried to lift Luca. Sasha just nodded and said goodbye and was about to leave, but Luca immediately grabbed her hand. I swallowed and looked at it; even Sasha was clearly stunned.
"D-Damn your fucking good-for-nothing boyfriend," Luca muttered and looked at Sasha. "I'll surely treat you better if I were him... I won't let you shed a single tear."
My chest felt tight at what Luca said. I just swallowed and tried to pull him away from Sasha... He can't confess to Sasha like this. "L-Luca, you've had too much to drink. You're saying all sorts of things," I just said and gave Sasha an awkward smile, even though my heart felt like it was being stabbed over and over again.
"Y-Yeah, he must be really drunk," Sasha just said and gave an uneasy smile.
Luca removed my grip on him and faced Sasha even though he was having a hard time standing straight because of his drunkenness... "Sashalyn... That asshole did nothing, he just made you cry and suffer. I-I will never do that... and I know I love you more than he does."
Sasha was clearly stunned by what he said. I just looked away because I felt like all my strength was gone from the words Luca said... My chest feels tight... I can't explain the pain that's enveloping my system right now.
"I-It seems like he's really drunk, Crescent... I'll go now, p-please take care of him," Sasha just said and immediately left.
Luca almost fell, but I immediately caught him. I tried to help him to the couch. I just laid him down there and took off his shoes.
With a heavy heart, I sat on the nearby mini table and stared at Luca. His eyes are now closed, and he has completely fallen asleep because of his drunkenness. I just gave a bitter smile while staring at him.
I was stunned when Luca slowly opened his eyes. He looked at me. I just swallowed and gave a faint smile, then looked away from him... "A-Are you okay, Luca?"
"Y-You should be comforting me," Luca said in a hoarse voice.
I was stunned and looked at him. He was staring at me, and I couldn't read what was going through his mind right now.
"but you're just confusing me... and I fucking hate you for that."
