Emma The kiss was breathtaking. I let myself fall into it entirely. I did not know why he kissed me, but I was glad he did because I had longed for him to kiss me again since that day at Alpha Gibson's doorstep. I enjoyed the moment, and a soft moan escaped my lips. It was a sweet and gentle kiss that made me wish more was between us; he would have been taking off my clothes tonight. Luca gently pulled away, and I rested my head back on his chest while we continued to move to the music. I knew why he had kissed me because people started thinking his mother had lied when she told them it was a contract marriage and I was being paid to hang around. I guess Luca did not appreciate her behaviour. I had called my brother after I left Luca's room, and he was glad I was settling in well. My family were not expecting me to be cared for, but when I told him how kind Luca was to me, he was relieved. I promised to call him every night now that I had a personal phone. I called Heather, too, and
Emma. Luca broke the kiss and stared into my eyes. I was breathing hard, and I knew my eyes reflected what I wanted. I did not want him to stop; he knew it, so he crashed his lips against mine and continued. Who needs butterflies when I have the entire zoo in my stomach? His scent filled my senses, and he tasted so sweet. That I had been pleasure starved for months did not help either. I did not know how much I was dying for his touch until this. I wanted him to touch me. He laid me on his bed and continued to kiss me, then he travelled with his kisses down my neck. I moaned. My panties were soaked. I could smell my arousal, so I knew he could too. He took off my shirt, and I eagerly let him. I wasn't thinking at those moments. I just wanted him. I wanted all of him. "Luca," I moaned and felt his mouth on my nipple. I arched my back into the bed to give him more access, and he touched my other breast in his hand and worked on my nipple. It felt so damn sweet, and I loved it. I ra
Luca. This was amazing. Emma was something else. Throughout my trip to Celio, all I thought about was our night together. I wasn't courting her, yet she responded to me as if we had been together for a long time. The way she moaned and responded to my touch was like no other. The sex was perfect. I had to move her to my room. After our night together, I knew I would not be able to handle being away from her. She was amazing. I kept adjusting myself in the back seat of the car. I did it so much that Gerald had to ask me if everything was okay. Goddess knows if I had taken her with me on the trip, I would be pumping myself into her. I wanted more. I had never been with an Omega before. Was this what it was like? She submitted her entire body to me and gave me what I wanted. I wouldn't have taken her if she did not ask me to. I did not want to complicate our relationship, but the way my body was feeling got me worried. I was okay with being friends. My lifestyle was too damn dangerou
Emma Things had gotten really heated between Luca and me, and as much as I liked it, I knew we had just complicated things. How was I going to walk away after all this? We had been sleeping together for a month, and every time I thought about how quickly the time was flying, I got so scared that I would sometimes cry in the toilet. I feared how I would feel when all of this was over. I knew he was my Declan, but I did not have the power to hold on to him. I secretly put myself on birth control to avoid complicating matters any further. He was delighted around me, and I knew he needed the happiness because he had been stressed out lately. Too many attacks. He never discussed his business with me, but I knew from the conversations I could pick up on that he was having a hard time holding on to power. His mother had visited twice, and I was grateful she was out of my hair. Maybe the whole contract thing made me less of a threat to her. I was grateful. I hated conflict and drama, and she
Emma The sorrow was immense. Luca cried and broke a lot of things. I became scared that he might lose it. It was an enormous trauma. The Alessandros wanted a quiet funeral, and so it was only family members that were invited. I didn't want to go because I did not qualify as a family member, but Luca had insisted. I did not want to face his mother, so I tried my luck again while putting on my clothes. "Maybe I should remain, Luca. Your mother would be in pain right now, and you know how much she hates me. This is not the time to ruffle her feathers." I asked gently, and he was silent; then walked up to where I was and turned me around to look at him. His eyes were sad and angry. The incident had touched him in the worst way ever. "I want you beside me, Emma. I need you there," he said in the words he could manage. Since the incident, he had spoken few words. He hardly slept at night, and most of the time, he would come home covered in blood that did not belong to him. I knew Luca had
Emma. Heather and I spoke for a while on the phone, and soon I hung up. I sat in the living room watching television; I was bored. I really did not have anything to do. Getting a job was out of the question. I dared not walk into any establishment as Luca's wife to look for a job. I stayed at home all the time except when he took me out. It wasn't fun, but I endured it. Two men walked into the house, and I stood up immediately. I had never seen them before, but they looked important and powerful. I did not know what to do because Luca wasn't home. "Good Afternoon Mrs Alessandro?" One of the men said. He had brown eyes and dirty blonde hair. He was huge, and I could see the tattoo on his neck. The other had dark hair and dark eyes. He was taller, about six foot three inches. I rarely followed Luca anywhere, so I did not know who these men were, but it seemed like they knew me. Had Luca been talking about me? Judging by all that had been happening, I had to be careful. My only comf
Luca. I wanted to take Emma to visit my parents, but I decided to spare her the drama and asked her to stay. My mother still blamed Emma for Roberto's death. She said I would have hung out with him if she wasn't in my house. She said I turned Roberto down to be with Emma, claiming she was a distraction and could lead me to my death. She did not even understand that I had almost died, and Emma saved my life. She didn't know that I was resting after recovering from the gunshots. I wouldn't have left my house regardless. But she was right about one thing. I prefer to spend my free time with Emma than my brother, and I do not regret it. That one decision saved my life. So if Emma was a distraction, then she was a damn good one. My mother did not understand how grateful I was for turning Roberto down. I would have been killed along with him. Goddess knows who he pissed off because I doubted that had anything to do with the power struggle. Emma being in my house saved my life. I warned m
Emma. THREE MONTHS LATER (Six Months into the contract). I was glad I had that talk with Luca. After our little fight, things changed as he promised. Catalina was respectful and used few words. I ran the house as a wife should, and I slowly began to forget my place. Luca was always busy. From the way things were happening, it seemed like the person he was looking for was good at hiding. He was often frustrated when he came back up, and it was up to me to calm him down when no one else could. It was so bad that even Catalina usually came to plead with me to beg her brother on her behalf. It was as if I was the only one that could get through to him. It felt good, but I was worried also. When I finally leave, who would he lean on? Luca returned home exhausted. There were splatters of blood on his shirt, and I did not ask him whose it was. I never bothered. It wasn't my business, and it wasn't my place. He looked a bit tense, and I did not know what the issue would be, so I thought of
