" Stop, give me that, I'm not a baby, besides you have to go to the office," I said to Luca who was trying to feed me.

“ It's either you open your mouth and take this food like a good girl or I'm just going to keep sitting here and watching you.” He said and there wasn't a single trace of a joke in his eyes.

" Luca, seriously, I'm not a baby, I can eat by myself,” I said and he gave a dramatic sigh before handing me the food.

I took the fork, well tried to, I don't know why I was arguing with him when I knew that my hand was bandaged and I couldn't do a damn thing.

But my stubbornness wouldn't let me. It's always like there's a voice telling me to just annoy this man.

I tried to pick the fork again but my attempt failed.

“ Is this the part where you ask for my help?" Luca asked and he had a victorious smirk on his lips.

Asshole.

" Well, how can I refuse,” I said with an eye roll and he chuckled before he took the plate from me and started feeding me the pasta.

When I was done eating the doctor came to check on me and from the record I had to avoid doing anything that involved using my hands and legs which meant I'd have to be dependent on someone.

I didn't like that but it looked like a certain someone was up to the task.

When the doctor was done he walked out of the room with the nurse and it was left with just me and Luca once again.

“ So I'm sure you heard what the doctor said?” He asked as he watched me with affectionate eyes.

" Yeah, that I'm now handicapped,”

" The fuck? How can you say that?” He said and he immediately came to sit beside me as he rubbed my cheek affectionately.

" What? I can't use my legs and hands, so what does that make me?” I asked.

" A princess," He said and I couldn't help but laugh.

“ Stop kidding right now, I don't want to be a burden to anyone," I said with a sigh.

“ One thing you should know Katherine is that you'll never be a burden to me, besides you can use my hands and legs, they're yours anyway,” He said and I found myself laughing again.

" Yeah, you sound like you're going to cut them and attach them to me."

“ Whatever way you want it,"

“ Stop it, stop it, get away from me," I said as I made myself comfortable on the bed and drew the covers up to cover me properly then I turned my back to him, I was trying to hide the stupid smile that wouldn't leave my face.

“ Well, I'm going to be here till you wake up," He said as he dropped a kiss on my shoulder.

“ Aren't you going to the office?” I asked him without turning to look at him.

" My woman is in the hospital and you want me to go to work? That's crazy,"

“ You keep saying ‘my woman,’ I'm not your woman," I said.

I know that fact has already been established the day I let him touch me again but it was good to play with him.

“ You are,” he said,

" No, I'm not,” I said.

" If you're not my woman then what are you?” He asked.

" Your friend,” I said and he immediately gave a dark laugh before I heard his voice go lower like whenever he was trying to prove a point.

He walked around the bed then he was in front of me as he squatted so he could look at me clearly in the eyes.

“ Let's get something straight honey… “ Stop it Katherine, something as simple as ‘honey’ shouldn't be turning me on and for God's sake you're in the hospital.

…” Friends don't know how each other tastes, I know the sound of your moans, every single sound you make when I hit you in the right spot, I know what you like, how you like to be touched, fingered, kissed, friends don't know that about each other, do you get that honey?”  He said and as if to prove his point he brought his lips closer to mine and licked my lower lips.

Friends? Funny, we were far past that.

“ Point gotten?" He asked.

“ Yes Sir," I said.

Why the hell was my voice coming out breathy, damn this stupid situation.

I had a fucking sling hanging my leg and here I was getting horny in a hospital bed.

Blame it on Luca.

“ Good girl, now go to sleep, I'll be here when you wake up," He said before standing up.

I closed my eyes and I heard something between the lines of ‘ love you,’ and ‘angel’ but I wasn't sure as sleep welcomed me into its warm embrace.

“ How can you be so stupid?! Just to kill a single woman you couldn't, what is the need of all these muscles if you can't even do what you're told to do?!" I asked in anger as I looked at the incompetent bastard I told to carry out a single task.

" I'm sor…"

“ Don't even think of completing that word cause I swear you wouldn't like me," I warned as I looked at him in anger.

" You were supposed to just kill her and leave, not leave bruises on her goddamn body, who asked you to go prove a point of how stupid you are?! Kill her, get the fuck out of there, but no, you had to do something else, do you know… do you know what I feel like doing to you right now?” I asked as I brought my hands out like I wanted to squeeze his neck.

“ Get out! Get out! Get out of here!” I shouted in anger and he didn't have to be told twice he rushed out of the room.

As soon as the door shut it reopened again and I thought it was the failure of an assassin.

“ Didn't I…”

" Chill, it's just me,” My spy said.

" Not like that would make any difference,” I said with an eye roll as I sat down on my bed.

" Did you do what I asked you to do?” I asked.

" Yeah, I made sure there wasn't any recording in the CCTV from that night,”

" Good, I don't want any mistakes,” I said.

“ We have to be careful from now on," My spy said as he came to sit beside me.

" We have to look for another way,” I wanted this over as soon as possible. It was taking too long.

" I think I might have an idea,”
