MOB BOSS (BWWM) (ON HOLD)

Chapter 9

Luca Gagliardi ^

Lauren's POV

Where the hell is he?

I woke up and stayed up for hours thinking about where Luca could be.

Did something happen to him?

Did he think I didn't want him anymore, that I wanted out?

Is he with another woman!?

I thought of many diffrent scenarios but I only wanted to know if he was safe.

I don't know if I can really do this.

Waiting up at night for him. Worrying if he is going to come home at all. Is he okay? Is he alive? Jesus! I'm going out of my freaking mind worrying about this man!

The knob of my bedroom door began to jiggle indicating someone tring to get in. I quickly laid down and tried my best to even my breathing, pretending to be asleep.

The person opened the door and quietly shut it behind them.

They walked towards the bed and leaned close to me. I could fell their warm minty breath fan my face.

"Tesoro?" Luca whispered but I didn't move. He let out a sigh and I could here the rattling of his belt. A couple seconds later the bedding rasied and the bed dipped.

He climbed in and got comfortable.

He spooned me from the back and kissed the back of my neck.

"My bella (beautiful)."he whispered and my eye lids shot open.

He did not just call me another females name.

I sat up in the bed quickly and turned on the bed side light. He squinted his eyes and put a hand over them.

"You did not just call me another females name." I said highly pissed off. He stared at me with those green eyes that I adore so much. His eyes were filled with amusement but I found nothing funny.

His deep chuckle filled the spacious room.

I just stared him down with my evil eye.

He sobered up and looked at me.

"Cara (darling) bella means beautiful in my language." he said to me and I instantly felt very stupid.

"Oh." Was all I could say. Silence engulfed us and it soon became akward. I wanted to ask him where he had been but I wasn't sure if I was positioned to ask him those kind of questions. Deciding to ask anyway, I spoke up.

"Where did you go?"I came right out with it and he looked me in my eyes.

"I had to handle some.... business." He said with a far away look in his eyes.

"Business as in business or... business." I questioned and he lightly chuckled.

"Business." He said in the same one I had used before. I nodded at his answer and the same silence came once again.

"I am suprised you aren't cautious and scared of me. You running to tell the feds. Don't you think I'm a murder?" I'm not sure how I got under him but he was on top of me staring me down.

"I know you wont hurt me. I know you will protect me because you love me just as much as I love you."I told him and he looked into my eyes like he was looking for a lie but didn't find one. I brought my hand up and rubbed his scruffy cheek.
