She said them so confidently in front of those judges that it made me doubt herself. All the kisses we shared, didn't it mean anything to her?The sound of my punches kept rising with the burning rage inside me. I was using this man's face as a punching bag.

Just like his boss, he didn't want Cassendra to find out what kind of relationship we were having.I shurgged without looking back at him," Just watching...why are you here?"I casted him a side glance.

Never in my life, I thought that I would pretend to be drunk just to get a girl's attention. Well, I didn't have any other choice left.One more day had passed in Italy and she had been fucking ignoring me. I assumed that my grandpa had spoken nothing but shit to her but how could I tell her that I burn for her. It was harder for me to stay away from her when she was mad at me. Perhaps, I should offer the deal of being my mistress always and forever. In that way, I could protect her, wasn't I?David, my partner in crime flashed her an awkward smile, his one had wrapped around my body to make the situation more perfect," Ah..Miss..Luca..well, he had been drunk..There is no one to take care of him.

|| AZRAEL DE LUCA'S POV ||" Sweetheart! Do you want something?", It was Cassendra who had been trying hard to coax my moody son. He had been playing with his food ever since we came into this mansion for this so-called family dinner. Officially, my grandfather was announcing that the Mitchells were now a part of Luca's family.Ryan wasn't okay with coming here without his mother. In the end, I had to force him to come here but he turned cold like ice.What else could I do?According to his mother, I was a monster and could do anything. It was better that we stayed like this in our own worlds like strangers. Some of her last words were still killing me.I was nothing to her....It was surprising to see Cassendra so calm and neutral. I was sure that she heard us in the store but didn't utter a single word probably because of her wise father.
