Chapter Twenty-Five

Senna

A vibrating noise on the nightstand next to the bed pulls me from sleep after the best night of my life. I grab a phone off the stand and realizeits Luca’s phone. He was so quick to leave this morning after Flame made a racket outside his door earlier.

I pick it up and see four missed calls and a few messages from an unsaved number. I wonder who is calling and texting him. I gather now that we are together, I get to know these things or at least ask. He is still a dark man, the enforcer for my father’s club, so I gather a lot will be kept from me and I will have to find a way to be ok with that. I don't want secrets at all.

I get up to put some clothes on. Stepping over my Lucas bloody t-shirt has me thinking of the pain he has gone through for me. Like my dad actually shot him. God, I wonder what Capone will get from dad when he finds out about him and Saylor. She says nothing is happening, but I know there is.

I said the same thing to myself about me and Luca but for years now there has been. You can't expect to be brought up in this life around these men and us not fall for at least one of them when you do nothing but preach, they are to keep us safe and be with us all the time.

I look at the floor to my clothes that I shed last night before hopping into Lucas bed naked. Waiting for him. Wanting to surprise him. My mind runs over the loss of my purity and how freaking unbelievable and beautiful that moment was. He made it soft, gentle, special. He was so tender with me it has me wanting to feel, see, experience the darker, hungrier side of Luca. Viper. I want the Viper.

I walk to his dresser and pull out one of his Ace of Spades Tee’s, pick up my panties and my jeans. I place them down on his bed. As I walk into the shower, I think this room is always in a disarray. God, I need to do some cleaning and organizing. Stat.

Flicking the faucet to hot I step in as the steam starts to swirl up around me as the water hits my skin. I shiver as the hot water stings my over sensitive skin. Tilting my head under the water to wet my hair I grab his shampoo and wash my hair with it. Next I take his body wash that smells of him all manly and minty mixed with a sandalwood undertone. Its yummy. So yummy. I squirt a generous amount onto the washcloth and lather it all over my body taking special care between my thighs. That area is super tender.

Mmmm the smell of Luca swirls up around me as the heat from the shower and the steam send it to my nostrils. I rub it all in deep into my wet skin and let its just soak in. I wanna smell like him forever.

Shutting the water off after I rinse the bubbles from my body and hair, I towel myself dry as I walk into Lucas room from the bathroom. I wrap the towel from my body into my hair and slip into my panties and thread my arms through Luca’s shirt. His smell hits me and my thighs clench as a warm feeling forms down low in my core. His shirt engulfs my slim figure, so I tie the bottom corner hem into a knot and then pull my jeans on. Just as I am slipping my other leg into my jeans the door opens. My eyes snap to it hoping like hell it’s Viper. Shock hits me when my eyes meet the death stare of Callie.

“Um, bitch, what the fuck are you doing in here?” Callie’s snaky voice fills the room as she steps further in. A big black duffle bag is in her hands. I feel anger coil inside my stomach. One of those texts or missed calls better not have been from her my Luca.

“You deaf, Biker Princess?” she snaps at me dropping the bag.

“No, doll, not deaf just not interested in answering club trash. You aren’t worth a minute of my time.” Pulling the towel from my head I scoop my wet hair up into a high ponytail. Callie storms over to me.

“Fuck off and get outta here,” she spits at me.

“You can leave. I have a right to be here,” I say back to her. I pick up the rest of my clothes from the floor and fold them, placing them on top of the drawers by the window.

“Ha. Whatever, bitch. You’re playing games,” she snarls out coming around to where I am standing.

“Luca is mine now so you and the other little whore chicas need to get that into your pretty little heads,” I say stabbing my finger into her forehead, poking it trying hard to get my point across.

“HA! Says who?” she snaps her hand out and wraps it around my wrist.

“Says me,” his voice commands the room and has my soul melting down my thighs.

“She’s mine and you and the chicas will respect that. Keep your hands off her,” his tone commanded her attention. “Oh, and Luca too. You won’t fucking touch him either.” I say to her peeling her hand from my wrist. Luca takes a few strides into the room as Callie’s cheeks redden. His hands wrap around my waist pulling me into him.

“Damn, you were born to wear my shirt, babe. Look at your sexy ass.” His lips find my temple while my eyes burn into Callie’s as her mouth gaps open. I flick it closed with my forefinger.

“I wasn't expecting to see you till later.” I say to him my eyes not leaving hers. I see the anger wash through them.

“Yeah, I forgot my phone,” his voice is husky, dripping pure sex appeal. He leans behind me with his free hand and picks it up off the nightstand looking at the screen his brow furrowed.

“Something important on there, babe,” Callie's voice sounds through the room. My heart clenches as my stomach drops into the dark pit of my soul and my crazy rears it heads.

“You said what?” I question her.

“Leave it, babe,” Luca says kissing my temple and letting go of me. His hands reach out grabbing Callie around her throat as he backs her out of the room and away from me.

“You ever cross her, you cross me. You ever touch her I will remove you from this world. You stay away from us and don't you dare text me, ring me or even look at me again.” Her eyes bug out of her head as his fingers tighten around her throat. Her skin goes from white to red to purple as he drops her outside the door onto the landing. “Fuck off and don’t ever come to my door again.” His tone vibrates around us as he walks back in and grabs me around my waist pulling me in and kissing me like he needs me to breathe.
