SHATTERED AND TEMPTED 146
"Yes, they're so cute! It looks like they're having an argument."I bit my lower lip and adjusted my eyeglasses when I heard someone gossiping about us. I discreetly looked at them. They were two women looking in our direction. I just looked away and drank my Coke."You done?" Luca asked and tapped his fingers on the table. His expression is still unreadable. I'm dying to know what he's thinking right now."Yes," I answered curtly."Let's go to the grocery store. We'll buy food, to stock the fridge," he just said."You can buy by yourself. Do I need to go with you?" I asked, frowning."Of course, Crescent. I'm the one who cooked, you know. All you have to do is accompany me to the grocery store, and you can't even do that," he said grumpily.My frown deepened. "Who told you to cook? I can do that too.""Wow, thank you. Thank you so much, Crescent," he said full of sarcasm."Why are you being sarcastic? You're the one who kidnapped me and brought me to your house!"I didn't realize my

I woke up with a heavy heart the next day. My head was also pounding because I didn't get enough sleep. I spent my whole night thinking about Luca and in what way I had confused him, because I don't know if I did.I just sighed and went out of the bathroom after I took a bath. I looked in the mirror and brushed my hair. I also put on my eyeglasses and took a book from the paper bag before leaving. I went straight to the kitchen and found Luca there, cooking. I didn't bother to talk to him and just went to the kitchen counter to get instant coffee and make it.I could feel Luca glancing at me, but I didn't look at him. I continued making the coffee. I left immediately and sat down after I was done. I opened my book and started reading it.We were both silent. I tried my best not to give him any attention and just continued reading my book. I didn't understand what I was reading, but I just continued. I don't want to talk to him right now. I don't even want to look at him. Not yet. I st

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.

I was awake, but I didn't have the courage to get out of bed. I buried myself deeper in the comforter and seemed to have no intention of getting up. Luca had already been gone from my side for a while since he woke up early, but I still didn't have the courage to show myself to him.Luca didn't respond to my confession last night. I immediately turned my back on him afterward and pretended to be asleep, even though the truth was I didn't get any sleep all night. I think I only slept for a few hours while trying to feel Luca next to me."I must be out of my mind," I mumbled and gripped my hair again.What is he thinking about me? Does he think I'm too fast? I'm dying to know what he's thinking about my confession! I think I'm going crazy from all this thinking."W-What if he brings it up when he sees me?" I nervously asked myself, then gripped my comforter tighter.I flinched in surprise when I heard the door open. I buried myself deeper in the comforter and closed my eyes to pretend t

I bit my lower lip and closed my eyes when I heard the door open. I gripped the comforter tighter. I forced myself to calm my breathing and pretend to be asleep. I felt the bed sink slightly as Luca got on it. He lay down next to me, but I could feel he was a little far from me. My grip on the blanket tightened and my eyes squeezed shut. I don't remember how long I pretended to be asleep. I was just trying to feel for Luca, waiting for him to fall asleep. I wouldn't be comfortable as long as I knew he was awake next to me. I waited a little longer. I turned to look at him, then hugged myself more tightly. I don't know if it was because the air conditioning in his room was too strong, or if I was just really cold. My body feels cold, my heart as well. I'm so cold that it feels like I can't stand to be here anymore. I want to go somewhere warm. I'm cold. I bit my lower lip when I felt my vision blurring. I touched my cheek and was stunned when I realized I was already crying. My

"T-Thank you, Luca."Luca was visibly stunned by what I said. He looked at me, as if in disbelief. His lips even parted a bit. I just swallowed and fixed my glasses again."Why the hell are you thanking me? Are you fucking nuts?"I bit my lower lip... I guess that's the real him. Maybe he really talks like that."Um, y-you said I should be thankful because you're not gonna kill me," I mumbled and bit my lower lip harder.Luca let out a sigh then got off of me. He sat at the foot of the bed. He tilted his head and licked his lower lip. He looked at me as his eyes narrowed. "Are you even for real?" he asked. He took a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from his pocket. He took one stick of cigarette, lit it, and took a drag. He blew out smoke then licked his lower lip with his tongue.I remained silent and got up. I looked at him, he held the cigarette between his lips then looked at me. "Pack your things, you'll stay with me at my house."I froze at what he said. It didn't seem to proces
