Astrid's POV My heart pounded against the ribcage in my chest as I hid behind Luca, trying to process what was going on. Hills Bill was here, and we were surrounded to the brim. Armed men stood in a semicircle around us, their guns raised already. And wrong move and it could as well be the end of everything. I had faced danger before– hacking, trying to get away from those who were after me and wanted me dead. But this felt different, I felt like I really was going I die and I was to blame because I was with Luca. I've heard rumors about him single handedly defeating an army of enemies and that was when he had nothing to protect. His men were rarely there when he battled according to what I've heard but I didn't think that was the right choice at the moment. Luca stood tall, as calm as ever which made me even more nervous than I already was. How can he be calm when we were surrounded and any step meant death. Instant death that is. Bill took another step forward, his gaze flickere

Astrid's POV My head was pounding when I finally opened my eyes. The room was spinning, and it took a moment for me to focus my mind on my surroundings. Tje familiar scent Luca gave was lingering in the room and it strangely comforted me. The events of the night came rushing back to me, making my head hurt slightly. My chest tightened and I groaned softly, as I tried to move. Every muscle ached and a dull pain throbbing through my body. I glanced down at my body to see someone had bandaged the sounds on my side– Luca no doubt, and I was only in shorts and a light sports bra. The memories of how I was close to death made my blood boil but I still had to be grateful to Luca anyway. I sat up slowly, swinging my legs over the edge of the bed. The room was dark and the faint glow of the dawn sky flickered into the room. Luca was nowhere to be found. Of course, he wouldn't. The man had probably left the moment I was stable. That's how he worked– he saved you, because you're a useful p

Astrid's POV I paced around the penthouse, trying not to make my nerves get the best of me. Luca's hadn't gone for a long time but I felt like an entirety had passed while waiting for him. I sat in the living room, the cup of coffee I had made more myself still sitting on the coffee table, untouched. I couldn't even do anything due to the anxiety I wasn't feeling in my right mind. When Luca was going, I knew he didn't tell me much before leaving which made me even more nervous. All Vincent said was that my family was taken hostage. Had they found my sister and mother while I was unconscious? I was unable to meet them soon because I was out. I rocked back and forth on the couch, trying to steady my breathing and gather my thoughts from all negative thoughts it was racing over to. My mind was racing in different directions, making me tap my face continuously. I didn't have to worry. Luca will take care of it right? A noise at the door startled me, and I shot up from the couch. My h

Astrid's POV The ride to the graveyard was silent. I sat in the passenger's seat, staring down at my fingers as I twirled it gently and nervously. Luca was focused on the road, his grip on the steering wheel firm. I could feel the tension between us and I didn't know how to break it. A part of me didn't want to break it either. When I asked him to take me to my mother and sister's graves, I thought he was going to say I needed to stay indoors to be protected but he didn't argue and just told me as long as I got enough sleep and food. As we neared the graveyard, my heart pounded against my chest. It's been five days since their death was told to me and I haven't had the courage to ask Luca about it during the three days I was in for. It felt like their death was mainly my fault. If I hadn't brouvvvght them into the deal, maybe I would still have them alive. Just maybe. Luca slowed the car down as we neared the entrance to the graveyard. I thought cemeteries were usually eerie and c

Luca's POV Everything these days were just going in the most unexpected order. But, one thing I was very glad about was the fact that Astrid was back, although not fully, but she ate well from the reports I got and had enough sleep. That was all I needed to hear. Right now, I didn't know what was going on in her head. The reason she was working for me in the first place was so I could find her mother and sister. I did find them but they ended up dead. The decision was up to her to make but right now, I wasn't going to let her go no matter what. From the way I've been acting around her, I was very sure that I wasn't going to hav any peace, knowing she was no longer under my watch. There were a lot of people out there who wants her and they could do that by force. Not everyone would treat her the way I was and the fact that she was the only woman who had ever satisfied me, I wasn't going to let her go to another man. I haven't acted on her after the last time but it was just taking
