Taming The Beast: His Ruthless Desire 71. A Man Broken.
Alex's Pov He relaxed back against the pillows and shut his eyes. I felt a pang of sadness as I noticed the look of serenity was gone. He was back to being guarded and on edge again. But there was a difference this time. His face was locked in a hard frown and his lips set in a firm line, but his hands. They trembled a little. And then a tiny tremor jabbed through his body. I reached for the rag and tried cleaning his forehead again. And although he didn't open his eyes this time, he flinched. Even though he knew it was coming. I didn't know Luca much. Or at all for that matter seeing as our relationship had been restricted to being purely sexual… but I had never seen him flinch. I'd never seen him look or act even remotely scared. I remembered the time he'd seen the red patches of skin on me from getting beat up by Fred. He'd reacted in cold rage. He'd killed the man for it. I'd only ever seen Luca Moon angry or horny. He never came across as a man capable of anything els
Taming The Beast: His Ruthless Desire 70. Gunshot Wounds.
Alex's pov The jacket he had on was black but I could see the dark split on the shoulder area that indicated blood. At first, I didn't freak out. I mean, the guy was an assassin, he probably had blood on him from time to time. Someone else's blood. But one look at his face and I knew that blood didn't belong to someone else. It was his. His face was a ghastly shade of white except for the dark patch under his eye lids. His left hand, the one attached to the shoulder with a patch of blood, hung limp at his side and there were cuts along his lips and cheek. He stood at the doorway for a few seconds, his eyes blank. Almost like he wasn't really seeing me at all. Then he staggered in, his legs trembling as though they struggled to hold his weight. I yelped and rushed forward to catch him as he fell to the floor. I wasn't strong enough to hold him up, but I slowed down his fall enough to prevent his head from hitting the ground as he passed out. “Luca?" I called his name fra
Taming The Beast: His Ruthless Desire 69. Longing.
Alex's Pov. I took a soak in the penthouse tub for the first time. Seemed pretty funny after spending the entire evening at the pool but I felt like pampering myself a little. Besides, I needed to relax. My muscles had been tense since Ryan's little declaration at the pool. “I think you're fucking hot too.” Well Fuck me. I threw my head back and groaned. He hadn't said anything else after that. He'd simply smirked and splashed some water in my face. I reacted reflexively and splashed back. Somehow that led to a splashing match which half the people in the pool decided to join in. All that laughing and splashing about had pissed Liz off and she got out of the pool, huffing and grumbling and calling the lot of us losers. I ended up enjoying the splashing game though. Some of the guys brought a beach ball and started a game but I wasn't interested. I kept trying to talk to Ryan again but he was avoiding me on purpose. The cute blonde from earlier laughed as he whispered som
Taming The Beast: His Ruthless Desire 68. Dreams And Maybes.
Luca's Pov I was tormented by dreams. Dreams of Ollie and of Dara and of Sven. Dreams of Little Lenny and his ridiculous denim outfits. I dreamt of the shops and the neighbors. I dreamt of school and the handful of friends I had made. And then my dreams changed. I dreamed of an alternative future. One where Ollie was alive and well. One where I never broke my promise to Dara to go back to selling drugs. Where I had stayed home that day and defended Ollie against Sven when he showed up. I dreamt of fighting Sven to protect Ollie. Grunting in exertion as we rolled on the ground reading punches. He would try to stab me with the knife and I would be too quick for him. I would knock the blade out of his hands and follow quickly with a barrage of punches to his gut. Or maybe I would collect the knife. Wield it over him like he had wielded it over Ollie. I would drown out his cries. Block out his pleas for mercy. With a shout of triumph I would drive the knife straight into his c
Taming The Beast: His Ruthless Desire 67. Escape.
Luca's Pov I heard him drop the gun and I stood up slowly. He took off the vest as I came around the bed to stand in front of him. I tossed my gun to the side. It occured to me that I could've just shot him then and been done with it. But no. I was a ruthless killer, a professional assassin. But I was no coward. If I kill a man in a fight then it has to be fair and square. I didn't trust Sven to share the same convictions though so I left the knife in my boot just in case. Over the earpiece I could still hear Elias and Sage's frantic whispers of concern. I heard Elias fire up the engine of the van they were in. They would be on their way to the designated pick up spot where they would wait, engine running, to make a quick getaway the minute I showed up. If I showed up. If I made it out of here alive. I'd beaten Sven once before. But we'd both been kids then. Now I was a trained killer and so was he. We were both hired mercenaries. Equally skilled. But he had the slight advanta
Taming The Beast: His Ruthless Desire 66. ALWAYS GOING TO BE A KILLER.
Luca's Pov The man standing before me looked almost the same as he had twelve years ago. Same blond hair now styled into a crew cut, same jaw so square and sharp it could cut through cheese, same pale white skin. But those eyes. They were different. Still a striking blue, but gone was the mischief in them. The spark of life. Now they hold only emptiness. Much like those of the man standing across from him. Much like mine. “Do I know you?” He asked, his finger still on the trigger. His voice was deep. Harsh. But somehow also flat. Devoid of emotion, hardened by time. My mouth opened but no words could come forth. I finally recognized the feeling that had overcome me before I entered the elevator to the fifth floor. The feeling I couldn't place. It was the same feeling from the day I held Ollie's dying body in my arms. Horror.****** I could still see his eyes struggle to stay open. His glasses, cracked, lay discarded. I could still hear his soft breaths, getting th
