All Chapters of Saint Or Sinner? : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

I was lost in my thoughts, just trying to gather the courage for what lay ahead. Finally, we arrived at his company, the place where our story began, where our connection had begun."Camila," he called softly, making my heart skip a beat. I slowly shifted my gaze to him. In his gray eyes, I saw warmth and encouragement, a contrast to the storm that used to brew there when we first met."Are you ready?" He asked, his voice calm but laced with the gentle urgency that made me want to smile. A nervous grin touched my lips, and I nodded.He squeezed my palm and leaned in, brushing his lips softly against mine."You've got this, Tesoro." I smiled against his lips and kissed him back briefly, feeling the warmth of his affection wrap around me like a comforting blanket."Thank you, Luciano," I whispered. He returned my smile, and together we descended into the lively atmosphere of his company's lounge.The noise was a glaring difference to the silence I experienced the first time I entered

I tossed his shirt over my head, ready to slip under the covers and finally get some sleep. But his rich voice cut through my plans, stopping me in my tracks."What do you think you're doing?" He asked, one eyebrow raised, arms crossed over his chest."Trying to get some sleep?" I stated the obvious."Without eating?" I smiled and shook my head."It's fine, Luciano, I'm not hungry. I don't want to eat." He shook his head and walked fully into the room."You don't have a choice, sweetheart," he stated, his voice leaving no room for argument."I do have a choice, Luciano! After all, it's my stomach and....""You have a choice, you say?" His sexy eyebrow shot up again, his amusement clear in his voice."Come on, Luciano, please, I don't want to eat." I tried to persuade him, but how could a beast like him be persuaded?"Camila, let's not argue about this. Either we do this the hard way or the easy way." He warned, and I stubbornly shook my head.He didn't give me time to think. He was al

Camilla's point of howFeathery kisses peppered my cheeks and I smiled, knowing who it was."If you don't get up this instant Camila, I swear I'll make sure you don't leave this bed for the next week," he growled.His threat was enough to make me sit up with wide eyes, and I turned to glare at his handsome face. It seemed like it didn't have any effect on him."Luciano, do we really have to wake up, and must you always threaten me?" I uttered in annoyance."I believe that's not an annoyance I hear in your voice, Gem." He shot a brow up, making me lower my head."Come on, get ready so we can have breakfast and leave." He instructed, and I furrowed my brows, confused."Leave?" I asked."I discovered you've been alone and bored, so we are going out," he explained. A smile spread on my lips, and I jumped into his arms."Thank you, Luciano." I whispered against his chest. He was stiff at first but eventually wrapped his arm around my waist.I immediately guessed he was not the hugging kin

Camila's point of viewAfter our erotic encounter in the booth, Luciano left me with Russo in the restaurant."So how are your sisters, and why did you come so quickly? It's just four days since you left, it's not even up to a week." I struck a conversation to pass time and keep us entertained while we waited for our orders."I know Camila, but I had to come back, they need me here.""Are you the first?" I inquired. He smiled and shook his head."Third.""So you don't have a brother?" He shook his head."That's where life began its game for me, the only male among three crazy females." He said with a dramatic hint in his voice. I laughed and slapped his hand lightly."Hey, girls aren't bad." I argued with a playful frown."Yes, I know that, beautiful, my sisters may be witches trapped in human form, but I love them nevertheless." The emotion that played in his eyes as he spoke about them made me smile."What about your parents?" His eyes darkened, and his jaw clenched. Immediately I

Camila's point of viewMy fingers raked through my hair, heavy breaths escaping my nose as I paced around the room.I always knew he was a dangerous man, involved in shady business, but for some reason, the mafia never crossed my mind.Fear wasn't the primary emotion. Anger was. I was pissed at him for hiding this truth, for keeping me in the dark. It still baffled me, even after witnessing him kill someone right in front of me.The door burst open, and he strode in, his face an angry storm cloud. Wait, why was he angry? I was the one who deserved to be furious."Why didn't you tell me, Luciano?" I gritted out, the words dripping with disappointment."Gem, listen....""No, Luciano, I don't want to listen! I should have known this was the kind of life you lived, an...""And have you run away or report my organization to the world? I didn't want to drag you into my messed up life. That's why I didn't tell you, to protect you. I didn't want you to run away from me like everyone else."
