❝Get away from me Enzo .❞ I said with pure annoyance from this man. I stumbled outside in the rain to get myself away from him, but then suddenly he appeared in front of me causing a jump out of me. "Do you not understand the meaning of get away from me?" He didn't reply. Lorenzo just stared at me blankly with his cold stare. "What is it!" I yell at him "Beautiful, you really need to stop trying to get away from me. It doesn't make me get farther away as much as we both know it should." He says in the most gentle voice he could do, getting closer to me "I particularly don't like being around men that kill people." I scoffed. "Then why even stay once you found out about me, Bells." He tilts his head at me with his captivating eyes "Because I cannot bring myself to leave you alone, it's like I'm drawn to you." I shout back at him as rain fell on the both of us. Lorenzo steps towards me again grabbing my waist slow pulling my body into his. "So don't leave me alone." His eyes looking hungrily at my lips, I stared back at his hesitating to lean in and kiss him. "Don't be afraid of me beautiful." He says once our lips touched each other gently. I felt the blood rush go to our lips once I felt him. He kissed me like he thirsted for me.

He made his way to the center of my legs and I let out a gasp. " we don't want anyone to hear you now do we," he said starting to rub slowly but surely I looked down at my plate, it was still full of food, and I hadn't even started eating yet.
