Angelina’s POV I’m staring at Lucas with so much confusion and overwhelming emotions. What the hell just happened? Did he just kiss me? Why in the hell would he do that? And why is he trying to convince me to stay? I thought he would be glad that he doesn’t have to look at me for much longer. That kiss….. If you can even call it that, awakened parts of me that I never felt before. Parts that were throbbing with….need to do that again, to press his lips against mine again and taste that kiss even more deeply. Is this what kissing feels like? Does it wreak havoc on the body like that? Or was that Lucas’s effect? “Why did you do that?” I asked slowly, trying to get out of my daze and focus. “Because I was wondering what kissing an angel would taste like” he said smoothly. Again with the angel metaphor and nickname. But somehow, it didn’t hurt a lot like it used to when he first used it a few hours ago. Somehow, the feelings of sadness and self hate lessened the more he insiste

Lucas’s POVShe ran away inside the house without looking back.She freaked out.My kiss made her feel things she probably never felt before in her life, and it scared the crap out of her. That’s why she asked me to get her ID ready as fast as possible. Or that’s what I was trying to convince myself with as I watched her disappear inside the house.I saw her desire to go for a third kiss, and a fourth even. But she was fighting that urge just as fiercely as I was fighting mine.I was rock hard in my pants right now.If I thought touching her lips slightly tasted like heaven, ask me what the real kiss tasted like. It freaking pulled me up to heaven itself and left me there. In pure bliss. In ecstasy. In euphoria.I never wanted our lips to part. I never wanted that kiss to end. I never want her to leave.But I had to respect her decision and pray that my guy will take at least a month to get her papers ready.I can get her to stay and fall in love with me within a month, right?She is

Angelina’s POVI went to sleep with a smile on my face for the first time in four days.I could still feel Lucas’s lips on mine, like he left some sort of permanent imprint there.I never thought that one kiss could turn my body upside down and make all those weird feelings take root inside my heart, but it totally did. Maybe I was too traumatized by the events that have been hitting me in succession that I’ve gone crazy, because that cannot be normal, right?One kiss cannot possibly do all that. Well it was two kisses if we’re counting the first one, which I totally am. Because all it took was that swift, tender touch to open up a floodgate of emotions I never felt before.For the first time in four days, I slept through the night and woke up without being haunted by any of my latest nightmares.I couldn’t help but connect it to that damn kiss.I had no idea what time it was but I could see the morning dim light seeping through the window. The sun seemed to always be covered in cloud

Lucas’s POVI was being a teasing asshole this morning to Angel.Her red, embarrassed face was enough to tell me that my teasing was working better than I expected.She didn’t even want to look me in the eyes as soon as she saw me enter the dining room. That’s why I tried to get under her skin. I didn’t want her to act like nothing happened, because it did happen, and I was so happy that it did, I had no regrets.But did she?Or was she acting this way because she thought it meant nothing to me and she was trying not to read too much into the kiss?After two days with her, I’d say I have a firm understanding of the way she thinks, but not enough to determine the answer to that question.Guess I’ll have to talk to her about it at some point.Let her know that it wasn’t just a game to me. I wasn’t just having fun with her while she’s here. I meant that kiss, I fucking kissed her like my life depended on it.“Lucas, I’d like for you and David to accompany April and Angelina to the town g

Angelina’s POVHe’s being his asshole self again today. Pissing the hell out of me since this morning.And the annoying thing is, I keep falling for his trap every damn time.He’s got me exactly where he wanted me from the beginning. Standing against him, breathing fire, and ready to tear him a new one. And the most annoying thing above all else, the twisted bastard was enjoying the whole thing. Right down to getting his ass kicked. Which is even beyond my capacity to begin understanding how his complicated mind works.“April, do you mind practicing with David while I deal with your annoying brother?” I asked her firmly.She gave me a side smile and said excitedly “Not at all, go ahead”“It won’t take long” I told her as I looked straight at him confidently.He raised one eyebrow and said sarcastically “Wanna bet on it?”“I don’t place bets, Lucas. Not when I’m sure I’ll win anyway” I said cockily as I stood a few feet facing him and taking my stance.“Keep talking like that, Angel. Y

Lucas’s POVI saw the look of pure shock cross her features as she gazed into my eyes. Trying to understand what I meant by my last sentence; even though it couldn’t get more clear than that.Just like I was expecting. She’s trying to avoid me because she thinks I was just playing around with her, entertaining myself while she was here.It hurt me more than it should have. She truly doesn’t have the slightest clue that I started having feelings for her.I mean it was pretty crazy to begin with, falling in love with her so fucking fast. But it fucking happened. Beyond any rationalization, it happened. She rooted herself inside my heart from the get go, and there was no removing her from that spot. Not unless it stops beating altogether.“You’re crazy. There could never be anything like that. Stop playing games, Lucas. Especially this one” she whispered fiercely before leaving me standing there, baffled by her words.Did she really not feel that pull I felt when our lips touched? Did sh

Angelina’s POVI swear I’m not the killer type, but he’s slowly turning me into one.And it’s not just because of the nickname, it’s fucking everything!His stupid sexy smug smile, his playfulness, his provocative words, his sarcastic tone, his recklessness, his over confidence in himself, his crazy, psycho side, and the list can go on forever.And because he was so fucking irritating, I found myself pointing the fully loaded gun to the middle of his chest just to see if he is going to waver and take back those words he just said to me very confidently.His smile deepened when I did that and he closed his eyes, his arms still stretched out, inviting and surrendering his life to me.I should learn by now, I can never try to match his craziness and come out winning here.“You seriously have no problem if I shot you?” I asked tightly, still aiming the gun at him.He answered softly with his eyes closed “You won’t shoot me”I don’t know what got into me at that moment but I just wanted to

Lucas’s POVIn all my sexual encounters; and I’ve had many, kissing someone has never felt so damn good before as it did right now.I was drowning in those lips, lifted into a whole other universe, floated on cloud nine, and never wanted to stop kissing her.Her lips evoked feelings, desires, and burning sensations within me that I never felt before her.Kissing her was easily becoming my new addiction.I’ve been dying for another taste since last night, and I couldn’t waste another second without getting my next fix, without getting my fresh breath of air again from within those sweet tasting lips.This time, I let my tongue explore hers and devour her mouth sensually, and fuck me, it felt so good to taste her like that.I kept kissing her until we were both extremely out of breath and damn near suffocating.And I didn’t miss the fact that she was kissing me back as well.There was no denying her feelings for me anymore. Even without answering my earlier question, I already got my an
