Burning Passion(ONGOING)

21. CAUGHT

At sunset, they decided to leave from the back gate. A cab was already standing at the door, except that it was driven by a cop. Luca hugged Sienna with all his might till she choked.

"Si, I'm gonna miss you. Don't hesitate to scold him if he acts like an arse." She only laughed as Tristan pretended to not eavesdrop on their conversation. They quickly sat in the cab for their drive.

"You don't look panicked. " she said breaking the silence.

"Don't worry I'll keep you safe."

"You said you were also involved in Dark Web."

"Every hacker stumbles upon it at least once. " He said calmly. Her eyes ran over every little detail on his face trying to guess his thoughts. She was partly disappointed as he didn't give anything away and partly happy as she could shamelessly stare at him this close. Her tongue darted out and ran over her lower lip unconsciously as she looked at his face. His eyes lowered to her lips as they followed her lips and a raw emotion was fighting to take over his beautiful cold eyes. He immediately looked in the other direction. Sienna could feel the atmosphere in the car change. She turned her head but made no move in shifting away from him and neither did he. Occasionally their knees would touch and she bit her lip thinking about the man sitting beside her.

After a few hours he felt a soft pressure on his shoulder as he saw his secretary fast asleep, her head resting on his shoulder, her breaths steady with a look of peace on her face. He did not make any move in waking her up rather he shifted a bit closer to make her comfortable. The corner of his lips moved a tad bit upward for a second before they went down again.

After reaching their hotel room, which they would share with each other much to Sienna's surprise, she finally asked him about what is going to happen.

"We are going to check if someone follows the con artists."

"What if someone doesn't?"

"Someone will. Tonight you'll see." He spoke confidently.

After having their meals both of them sat on the bed trying to keep less distance between them.

"Hey, Luca. How are you?" She face timed him.

"Hey Si. I miss you already. Mind asking my brother why he found such a cheap hotel when he has billions."

"I did that because the first thing the enemy will do is search all the best hotels since I'm a billionaire. They won't have any idea about where to find us in this cheap place. We have to behave like normal people." He said.

"Hello Jackson." He greeted the artist who was pretending to be him. "Do you see someone suspicious?"

"Not yet, sir. There are quite many cars. Keep going I'm sure someone will try to break in our phones or the car system soon." They had given their phones away.

"Someone has hacked into my phone." Sienna said excitedly.

"You didn't delete anything did you?"

"Nope not even my bikini photos." She said fast without processing what she said.

"That's some good info." teased Luca.

"Shut up." she said as she peeked a glance at her boss whose shoulders were a bit loose unlike being tense.

'He's enjoying the joke, too." She thought as heat crept to the back of her neck.

"The person has entered." Her voice turned serious.

"I'll try to find the IP address of the person and you Jackson by the time continue driving through the crowded areas. Don't go anywhere alone." Tristan said his voice so authoritative that it made Sienna feel like he was used to these things. There was a difference in his features like he was made to do it. He seemed like a man who knew what he was doing and unlike Sienna he was very calm and there wasn't even an ounce of nervousness in him. He did it like it was a part of his daily routine.
