Why Me? [ONGOING] [16+]

chapter 4

As I realized that he probably wasn't going to say anything I opened my mouth to speak but he beat me to it. "What's your name?" He asked leaving me stuck. Should I tell him my name? Is he dangerous? Why does he care? Again I had so many questions that I knew I couldn't get the answers to without him knowing my name.

Eventually I decided that him knowing my name couldn't hurt so I opened my mouth to tell him who I was but again before I could tell him anything one of his men stopped me by calling out his name which I found out was Luca. What a pretty name along with those pretty ass eyes and that god like body that he had.

Wtf am I saying?

Carter just died I need to stop thinking like he didn't.

I'm suddenly snapped out of my thoughts by him waving his hands in my face trying to get my attention. "Bello" he says to me with his smooth but deep voice that made my heart skip a beat. "What did you Call me?" I ask my cheeks suddenly burning red.

That shit is embarrassing get yourself together Selena!!

"I called you Bello because I mean you are and I haven't caught your name just yet" he says to me looking me up and down like he's trying to look through my clothes. Which I didn't mind at all, he then grabs my hand and pulls me toward where him and his men came in and after a couple steps I see a line of black suvs. He opened the door to the one in the middle and signaled for me to get in. I roll my eyes at him I cross my arms over my chest "why would I leave with you?I don't even know you." I state making his jaw clench. "would you rather stay here with two dead bodies?" He says and suddenly realization washes over me and I know that he can see it because a small smirk formed on his face. I get in the car and put on my seatbelt while I wait for him to get in the drivers seat.

He gets in and starts the car taking his gun out of his gun strap placing it in the middle area of the car I do the same. In the mafia this is a sign that we're not a threat and have good intentions. He turns and asked me where I'm going and I give him the directions to my house. We stop in the front of my house and I get out, he sits there and waits for me to get into the house before pulling off.

As I walk into the house my eyes start to burn and I collapsed, sobbing as tears rushed down my face. I didn't even attempt to get up I just sat there and let myself cry because I knew that if I didn't it would happen on a mission or worse in-front of my family. I got multiple calls from Allaria and Matteo But I ignored them knowing that they would try to come over to help but that's not what I want. I want to get through this on my own because if you think about it I'm the reason that he is dead.

(we'll get to Matteo later)

Suddenly I hear a knock on the door but I ignore it not wanting any company but it just kept getting louder and it was giving me a headache. I eventually got up and crawled over to the door and opened it while still on my knees not caring about who it is but when I look up I see HIM.

She got out of the car and I couldn't keep my eyes off of her. She was beautiful like she was a fallen angel, I waited for her to get in the house before I pulled off but even when she got in there I still sat there hoping that she would come back out and invite me in but she didn't so I left. A couple of blocks away I realized that she had left her hand gun in my car so i turned back to take it to her.

I pulled up to her house and parked the car debating on just leaving but I didn't I got out of the car and headed to the door. I knocked and no answer so I kept knocking. After a while I started to get worried about her not knowing if she was even alive in their when suddenly the door opened but she wasn't there.

I then look down seeing her on the floor with tears in her beautiful eyes and suddenly I felt something that I had never felt before.

Sympathy.

She looked into my eyes with her tear filled eyes and my heart broke. Suddenly I was picking her up and carrying her to the car, I placed her in the passenger seat as gentle as I could and shut her door. I walked over to the driver side and I could feel tears start to brim in my eyes but I fought them off because I could feel tony Staring at me waiting for me to break.

I couldn't give him that satisfaction.

I drove back to my house and carried her inside because she had fallen asleep on the ride here. I had one of my maids change her into one of my shirts and I carried her to my room. Calm down I slept in the guest room I just wanted her to be as comfortable as possible and I knew that the guest bed couldn't do that.

I tossed and turned trying to fall asleep but I just couldn't because SHE was in my head. Why is she in my head? This has never happened to me before. I have never felt this way about any girl in my life but she was different, she was bold and fierce, she challenged me when I told her to get in the car and no girl or man has ever challenged me. They know better but when she did it I wasn't mad I was intrigued and curious. This girl is really getting under my skin and I love it.
