The next morning Luca woke up to the burning gaze of Damian who sat a few feet away from the bed on a chair that definitely wasn't there yesterday.

"Are you watching me sleep?" Luca asked, his words a gentle slur.

"What does it look like?" Damian replied, his voice dry as he responded.

Luca didn't know how to respond, He was still a little asleep to be truthful but he forced himself off the bed and walked to the window, the sunlight bathed his face and for the first time he was able to see it, the city this building overlooked in all it's tainted beauty.

"Beautiful." The words escaped his mouth before he could think and he immediately regretted it.

"You'll get tired of it." Damian said coldly as he placed a grey suit on the bed.

"You're heading out?"

"We." He corrected as he turned his back and went back into what Luca assumed was his closet, He followed him and was immediately blown away by the size of the space, Closet wouldn't do justice to the space he found himself in as it had more similarities with a Louis Vuitton Store.

"Isn't this a little overkill?"

"More will always be better than less. Pick an outfit and get ready, we leave in an hour." Damian stated then stomped out of the closet leaving Luca alone to wander the racks and sections of tailored designer suites.

After wandering for about ten minutes Luca finally picked out a black silk shirt with blood red rose patterns and grey khakis with faint red lines running from top to bottom. He took the clothes out of the closet and placed them on the bed, he noticed that the clothes Damian had placed were no longer there so it probably meant he had already gotten dressed and was now waiting for him. 

He let out a defeated sigh as he picked up the towel and toothbrush that had been left for him and walked into the shower.

Luca stood in front of the collosal mirror, his eyes locked on his reflection as he wore the clothes he had picked out but even though it seemed like he was in the present every single piece of his attention was fixated on the collar that branded him like a dog, His hands and legs may have not been locked in shackles but in his mind, he was a prisoner, a prisoner to a man who could change his mind at any moment and put a bullet through his skull, A shiver ran through him as he thought of his bloody body at Damians feet but it was nothing in comparison to the shiver he felt when the events of last night flooded his mind, Every thrust, every sound they made, passionate, raw, burning hotter than the sun's surface with every touch and now he felt dirty, like he was covered in filth that wouldn't wash away no matter how many showers he took. The more he thought about the more the disgusted he felt with himself, Damian had used him, fucked him like he owned him and he did nothing but take it and moan like a fucked up whore….

“You must be thinking about me,” Damian's voice suddenly broke him out of his trance and tossed him back into reality and only then did he see the look of pure disgust and anger that burned in his eyes.

“You flatter yourself,” Luca lied as he turned to face him, Damian looked at him for a second then his eyes went down to his feet and up to his head, Luca suddenly felt naked at the mere gaze of this man, he hated it but for some reason he liked the look of desire in Damian's blue eyes.

“Wow.” He thought to himself. Damian took three step forward and now he was face to face with Luca, He was a little taller but by just leaning down a little bit they were at eye level, He brought his face close to Luca's ear and his lips brushed against Luca's lobe sending an unexplainable amount of shock and pleasure through his body then he whispered “Get your ass downstairs, we leave in 15.” and with those words he left the room and Luca was once alone left with his thoughts and a painfully hardened dick.

He let out a pained sigh at his own weakness before straightening up and walking out of the bedroom.

As his feet touched the final step that led into the room where Damian was waiting for him a sweet smell immediately filled his nostrils, he breathed it in, enjoying it immensely as he walked into what was supposed to be a dinning but had more in common with a conference room with the number of chairs that surrounded the long table, Damian sat at the head of the table, scrolling through a tablet that was placed on the table and not even paying the slightest bit of attention to Luca who had taken a seat at the far end of the table. The help brought over a plate of scrambled eggs, toast and a cup of orange juice and placed it in front of Luca then gave a respectful bow and walked back to a corner where she stood still like a statue. Luca looked closely at her and realized that she didn't look as scared as the first time he had seen her, now she looked a lot more comfortable and a lot less scared of the man who bit into toast like he had no problem in the world.

“Where are we going?” Luca finally asked a question that had been burning in his mind, Damian raised his head and looked at him for and unbearable few seconds before responding.

“You'll see.” He said calmly then refocused his attention on the tablet.

“That's not an answer to my question,” Luca hissed.

“True. But it's the one you're gonna get, So eat.” Damian said with a tone that made it perfectly clear to Luca where he stood, He might have a seat at the table but it didn't belong to him.

  • Play Thing Of The Enemy   The End

    Luca's Pov The sun was sinking slowly into the horizon when I stepped out onto the terrace.The sea below glowed gold where the light touched it. The waves rolled in soft and steady against the rocks beneath the house, the sound familiar now in a way that still surprised me sometimes.A year ago, I would have checked every blind spot before coming outside, I would have scanned the cliffs, the road, and the neighboring houses.I would have looked for movement, for danger or for proof that peace was about to be taken away from me again.Now I leaned my forearms against the stone railing and watched the sunset without thinking about exits.The house behind me was loud.Nico had discovered some kind of game involving blankets, chairs, and what sounded like at least three saucepans.Chiara was trying to stop him without laughing too much, she was failing.I could hear her voice through the open doors.“Nico, if you break another chair, I am sending you outside with Damian.”“That’s not a

  • Play Thing Of The Enemy   What Kings Build

    Damien's POV I never cared much about legal documents.Most of my life had been built around avoiding them, manipulating them, or using them against other people before they could do the same to me.Contracts, shell companies, passports, corporate structures and entire governments could disappear inside enough paperwork.But this was different.This was not about hiding something, this was about making it real.The meeting took place in a government office overlooking a narrow square lined with old stone buildings and trees that had just started turning gold with autumn.The room itself was small, there was a long table, bad coffee, stacks of paper, and a civil servant who looked deeply offended that any part of his morning involved me.Chiara sat across from me, calm and composed as always, Luca sat beside me, one hand resting quietly on his knee beneath the table.Nico sat between us drawing what appeared to be a dinosaur wearing a crown, he had become very interested in crowns rec

  • Play Thing Of The Enemy   The Long Exhale

    Luca's PovThe first week after the testimony felt wrong, I woke up every morning expecting noise, a call, a message or someone pounding on a door.My body kept waiting for the next disaster like it had forgotten there could be anything else but there wasn't.No one was chasing us, no one was hunting us.The silence should have been comforting, instead, it made me restless, I paced constantly.From the kitchen to the window, from the window to the balcony, from the balcony back to the kitchen again, I checked locks three times before bed.A car backfiring in the street below made my heart jump so hard one afternoon that I was halfway to the hallway closet before I even realized what I was doing.I stood there staring at them for a long moment, feeling stupid, then I shut the door.Damian found me in the kitchen twenty minutes later, standing in front of the coffee machine with a cup in my hand I had forgotten to drink."You've been staring at that for five minutes," he said.I looked

  • Play Thing Of The Enemy   Damien's Testimony

    Damian POVBy the time they called me in, Luca had been back in the private room for almost twenty minutes.He sat in the chair near the window with his elbows on his knees and a bottle of water untouched in his hand.He looked calm from a distance but I knew what it had cost him.I had watched the courtroom feed from the waiting room monitor, watched him describe the deaths of his parents with a voice so steady it made the entire room feel ashamed, and watched him speak about Matteo.Watched judges stop writing because they could not hide what was on their faces anymore.He had done exactly what he came here to do, he had made it impossible for them to look away.Kai sat on the floor beside the coffee table with one laptop open and another balanced on the chair next to him.“The recess coverage is insane,” he said without looking up. “Three separate broadcasters just called Luca's testimony one of the most important witness statements in modern European judicial history.”Marcus made

  • Play Thing Of The Enemy   Testimony

    Luca POVThe courthouse was already surrounded when we arrived.Media vans lined both sides of the street, barricades cut the crowd back in layers, cameras flashed nonstop, bright and sharp even through the tinted windows of the car.I could hear the noise before I stepped outside.People shouting questions, reporters calling names and security barking orders.It sounded like chaos, it felt strangely far away.I sat in the back seat beside Damian, staring through the glass at the stone steps ahead of us.For years I had imagined places like this as untouchable, places where men in expensive suits decided what truth looked like, places where people like Matteo and my parents never got justice because justice had never really been made for them.And now I was about to walk inside one.My stomach turned and Damian looked over at me.“You can still leave,” he said quietly.Even after all the preparation, all the evidence, all the negotiations.If I asked him to turn the car around, he wou

  • Play Thing Of The Enemy   Luca's Choice

    Luca POVThe offer came in writing. It was carefully constructed in the kind of language that made everything sound reasonable if you didn’t look too closely.“Full cooperation in exchange for full immunity.” They wanted testimony, evidence and names. I read it twice, then a third time.“Say it out loud,” Kai said from across the table, her voice was quieter than usual, like she was conserving something she didn’t have much of left.I looked up at her but she didn’t look away.“Total immunity,” I said. “No charges, no extradition and protection under international oversight.”Marcus let out a low whistle. “That’s generous.”“It’s strategic,” Elena said.She leaned forward slightly, her hands clasped together, eyes sharp despite the exhaustion that hadn’t fully left any of us.“They need you,” she added, looking between me and Damian. “Both of you. The structure collapses cleaner if the people who broke it help explain it.”“That’s one way to put it,” Marcus muttered.Kai tapped a key
