Luca threw punch after punch the look on his face told me he was looking to kill. Felix laid on the ground unconscious with a bloodied and beaten face. The alarm in the house was loud but not too loud where I couldn't hear the foot steps closing in.

"Luca he's beaten to a pulp leave it for now, his people are coming and fast." He gets up but I can see in his bloodthirsty eyes that he's feeling uneasy. "We'll get him I promise on our terms but for now let's get both of us out of here before we're both dead." I reassure bringing my hand up wiping the blood off his cheek.

Luca took a deep breathe then arched a brow. "We?" He asked with a smirk.

 "Yes 'We' you my ride or die bitch." He wrapped his arm around my waise and pulled me closer. 

"Damn straight."
