We make our way down a long corridor. The walls are a dark grey and at the end of the hall are big steel elevator doors. Stepping inside, Gianluca presses number 15 and I quietly groan. I already knew this was going to be a long and quiet, ride up. An awkward tension fills the room and I couldn't help but feel Gianluca's eyes on me. Causing me to shift uncomfortably, I lean against the cool steel wall as the soft sound of elevator music makes me sigh in peace.

     The sudden sound of a familiar ding causes me to stand straight and follow Gianluca out of the elevator. What seems to be a giant lounge area comes into view just as we step out of the silver steel box. A giant flat screen T.V. hangs against the wall with a football game playing on the screen. Couches and high chairs with tall tables litter around the room. Women in skimpy outfits walk around the room handing men drink. Other women stand behind a bar while speaking to the men there. Do they have a bar or something?

     The sound of the doors closing behind us causes all the men to turn their attention towards us—specifically me. I swear I saw some of them undress me with their eyes as others bite or lick their ugly ass lips. Some even had the audacity to howl at me. "Shit." I mumble to myself, as I remember that I'm still in my strippers outfit from last night. Crossing my arms over my chest, I hide behind Gianluca while he smiles in amusement.

"Don't worry about them, they won't dare touch something that's mine." He whispers in my ear while I nod. Wait what?! Did he just call me his? Is this child insane or something?

     Putting his arm around my shoulders, Gianluca glares out to the men as they grumble in annoyance before facing the big screen with the football game being their main attention. Leading me down a long corridor to our right, brown wooden walls with making doors litter the hallway.

     Managing to shrug off Gianluca's arm, I side step to the right allowing some sort of distance to be placed between he two fo us. Gianluca finally stops in front of big brown wooden door to our left. Opening it, he extends his hand for me to walk in first. Eyeing him suspiciously, I walk into the room just as the lights flicker on. I'm engulfed by a beautiful bedroom. "Welcome to your new bedroom." Gianluca says while closing the door behind him.

Crossing my arms over my chest, I hand him a fake smile. "Thanks. Now can you leave?"

Smirking at me, he makes his way over to the bed before lying down on it. Placing his arms behind his head and his feet cross over one another, he sighs out in amusement. "You see, my dad doesn't trust you to be alone. So, the only option is to stay with me."

Scoffing at him, I make my way towards the door. "Ha! There's no way in hell I'm staying with you!'

Gianluca's eyes darken as he jumps off the bed and zooms towards me. Not caring, I reach for the doorknob but his hand is quickly on my right wrist and spins me around as my back slams agains the wooden door. Pressing his body into mine, I couldn't help but feel his junior pressing himself on my lower stomach. Closing my eyes, I silently sigh in satisfaction. Gianluca manages to dip his head down to my ear, his teeth grazing over my earlobe as his hot breath fans my skin. Unwanted goosebumps run along my arms and a slight shiver follows. "Where do you think you're going?" He whispers darkly.

I need to play smart in order to get out of this. I can't let my emotions get the better of me. Shoving him off of me, I narrow my eyes. "While you're here, I'm going to find another bedroom so I won't have to deal with you." I continue to push at his chest but he doesn't move.
