Chapter 7
- Lexi’s POV
- For the second time tonight, I find myself outside of the club being hauled into a parked SUV waiting for us out front. Although on the bright side at least Luca didn’t throw me as hard inside his SUV like Gregor did. That has to count for a win for me. I don’t know when I started a full body shake, but I had the tremors all over. Luca has been on his cell phone ever since we entered the vehicle, and hasn’t even looked my way. That is perfectly fine with me I would prefer not having his attention rather than having his full attention. ‘I wonder how long I will have to stay with him until my debt is paid in full. After all it wasn’t even all that big of an ordeal.’ I think inside my head. Not being able to hold in my question I blurt out, “how long do I have to stay with you until my debt is cleared?” Luca doesn’t even take his eyes off of his phone while he answered me. “Until I think the debt has been paid in full. You are at my mercy.” Stunned by his response I so want to tell him that his way of thinking was unfair, but decided to keep my mouth shut this time.
- We finally pull up and the SUV stops in front of some wright gate that has a guard shake with two employees working it. Both of the men were carrying guns, and had on a tackle belt like the army wears. The gates start to automatically open once the driver scans the key card on the keypad that operates the gate. The driveway is a long-paved drive that has the outdoor lights going along both sides of the pavement making it look bright and fancy. The house or should I say Mansion this house was fairy tale beautiful. There is a water fountain in the middle of the circle drive, the house was lit up by spot lights all the way around down the front and sides. The driver pulled up right in front of the brick steps leading to a double oak door. I reach up to open my door, right before I push it open, I hear a “tsk, tsk” noise coming from behind me. I peer over my shoulder and see that Luca was now right staring right at me. He had his nose snarled up, now I know what he meant when he said he was arrogant. “Only after I get out first are you allowed to exit the vehicle. Never before me, is that understood?” I couldn’t help but think, ‘this stupid mother fucker wasn’t fibbing when he said that he was worse than Gregor.’ When I heard him make that sound. “I guess I got lost in my own thoughts, because the next thing I knew, Luca had me by the hair of my head. “I’m not a patient man, whenever I ask you a question, I expect you to answer me honestly and fast. This will be your only warning. Next time will result in a spanking.
- An older room opens the front door and stands waiting on Luca I’m guessing. As we approach the unfamiliar lady starts to looking at me with the biggest resting bitch face, I have ever seen. Great just what I needed someone else to be mean to me, or snitch me out to Luca for every little thing. Luca stops right inside the front door and says “Abelia this is Lexi, she will be staying here with me from now on. Lexi Ab is what we call Abelia and she runs my household. Which now that you’re here, that will become one of your responsibilities. Ab can start showing you around and teach you what exactly you’ll be doing tomorrow. Good night, Ab we’re off to bed.” Surprised at how nice Luca was to her. They must be a lot closer; she is someone important to him I bet. I’m fast on Luca’s heels as he leads us what I am guessing is his bedroom. I’ve got butterflies flying in my belly right now. I’m no virgin, but I don’t know what to expect from him. He said I was going to be punished, I don’t know why that scares me but also excites me at the same time. This house is amazing as soon as you walk in there are two stair cases going to the second floor. The flooring is all marble and the walls are painted a light brown. There is huge painting hung up, that I can tell are worth a small fortune just by looking at them. That is all I am able to see at the moment, because Luca starts sauntering up the stairs. We go right once we reach the open corridor. I count the doors as we pass them, so far there is 2 on the right and one on the left. We reach a dead end where the only door is to our left. He reaches up and places his hand on what looks like a hand scanner it glows bright then turns green. I hear the lock unlocking on the bedroom door. ‘Fuck now I know what he meant about being easier to escape Gregor.’
- As we stroll in the room it is bigger than Marco’s whole apartment. The walls are a gray color and in the middle of the bed is a king size bed that has Vienna Bed with matching bedroom suite. I notice three doors lined up next to each other when Luca enters one. I peek and see that it is a huge walk-in closet. There are suits lined up down every wall I can see. So, I’m guessing that the other doors are to the bathroom, and another closet. Not knowing what to do I quietly trudge over to the leather couch that is on the side wall and sit down. My tremors are back I wish he would go ahead and tell me what is in store for tonight. He glides out of the closet and scans the room, no doubt looking to see where I went off to. When his eyes finally land on me, for a second I thought I saw a relief in his globes. I must have been mistaken, because the only thing I am seeing now is lust and anger. “Go take a shower,” is all he spoke then disappeared back out of his bedroom. I jump up to my feet and rush in the bathroom trying to waste no time. Maybe just maybe I can get in and get out before he gets back. Out of habit I lock the door, and start the shower water. Wishing I could spend just a moment to take in how big this bathroom really is. Turning the water on so it can be warming up, I shuck off my dress and under garments. I search for a towel and found it in a lien like closet off the bathroom.
