♥ Chapter 10♥

Enzo D'Angelo.

I leave the store, still feeling the blood pulsing in my temples. The woman behind the counter looks at me with an expression of contempt, but I ignore it. I'm not buying anything else there, not even the snake I was so interested in. My mother would probably kill me if I showed up at home with a reptile, no matter how rare and beautiful it was.

I walk towards the square, trying to clear my head. However, the square is packed with people. The sound of conversations, laughter, and children running around makes me feel even more irritated.

''What the hell? I've just been walking for nothing. '' I grumble as my eyes search for somewhere empty to sit and relax. But all the benches are occupied, and I let out a sigh of frustration.

I keep walking aimlessly, just trying to find a quiet corner. My feet lead me to an area further away from the square, where I notice a group of teenagers smoking. I narrow my eyes as I recognize Lucas and Luan among them. They are laughing at something a red-haired woman has said, and she smiles back, leaning towards one of them, about to kiss him.

I feel an inexplicable pang of discomfort and anger. I watch the scene, my chest tightening. Why on earth does this bother me so much? Why do I care if she kisses one of them or not?

''What the fuck is happening to me?'' I think, biting my lip hard. ''Why do I care if the redhead kisses them?

I turn my back quickly, determined to get out of there before my irritation gets any worse. However, before I can get away, I hear my name being called. I stop, annoyed, and turn around slowly, seeing Lucas and Luan walking towards me.

''What are you doing here?'' Lucas asks, looking me up and down with an arched eyebrow.

“I can't leave the house anymore, can I?” I reply dryly, crossing my arms.

They both laugh, and Luan shakes his head.

''As always, so harsh,'' he comments, still smiling.

I roll my eyes, impatient.

''Why did you call me?'' I ask, my voice coming out more irritated than I intended.

''We saw you were leaving. Why don't you come and meet our friends? '' Lucas suggests, with a gentle tone.

'' Friends? So you're friends now? '' I don't know why I'm asking, but the words just slip out.

The two of them exchange glances and then flash those annoying, identical smiles that always make me uncomfortable.

“Are you jealous, love?” Luan teases, his voice full of malice.

I widen my eyes, surprised and somewhat shocked by the insinuation.

''If you call me that again, Luan, I swear I'll slap your face,'' I warn, trying to sound threatening, but he just moves closer, coming face to face with me.

''You can hit me, I'll let you.'' he says, his voice low and provocative. ''But I'll want something in return.

Before I can respond or process his words, I feel his arm wrap around my waist. My breathing quickens, and my heart beats out of rhythm. I'm about to push him away when suddenly I feel his lips on mine.

What the fuck? Is he kissing me?

The shock paralyzes me. This is my first kiss, and it's completely unexpected. I try to pull away, but Luan holds the back of my neck firmly, deepening the kiss. His tongue invades my mouth, and I let out an involuntary sigh.

Why is this… good?

My mind screams at me to push him away, but my body won't obey. I finally push him away, with all the strength I can muster, and slap him across the face.

“Don't ever do that again, you idiot!” I shout, turning my back and walking away as fast as I can.

My heart is still racing, and my lips are still tingling from the unexpected contact. What's happening to me? Why am I so confused?

As I walk away, I run my hand over my lips, trying to erase what has happened, but the feeling won't go away. I look around and realize that I'm far from the square. The sky is starting to close in, threatening rain.


Why are they doing this to me? What do they really want?

I walk back home, passing the exotic pet store again. My eyes automatically go to the Python I wanted to buy earlier, but I know I'd better give up the idea. My mother definitely wouldn't approve.

When I get home, the security guard opens the gate, and I walk in quickly, trying to clear my head of confusing thoughts.

'' Welcome back, Enzo. '' I hear Christopher's voice coming from the sofa. '' How was your walk?

'' What's the matter with you? '' I reply angrily, with no patience for conversation.

''I didn't understand what you meant,'' he replies, confused.

I ignore him and hurry upstairs, determined to lock myself in my room and forget what happened. But instead, I go straight to Klaus' room, opening the door without knocking.

'Don't you know how to knock? '' Klaus asks, getting off Alex.

''No. '' I reply bluntly. I need to talk to you.

'' You? What have you done now?'' Alex asks, frowning.

''I was kissed by Luan.'' I let go at once, feeling the heat rise to my face.

They both widen their eyes in surprise.

''You? Your first kiss was with the mafia boss's son?'' Klaus comments, and I roll my eyes again.

''I'm confused and angry. I don't know what they want with me. I've just missed my first kiss.

Klaus sighs.

“Enzo, did you like the kiss?” he asks, watching my face.

I quickly deny it.

'' Be honest.

'' No. '' I reply, looking away from any corner of the room.

''You're a very bad liar.'' Alex comments, and I sigh, defeated.

''It was different, okay? I've never been touched or kissed, and now, out of the blue, it happens. I'm confused.

''Brother, maybe they liked you,'' Klaus suggests.

''Liked me? Those two? '' I laugh humorlessly. 'I' doubt it. Surely they just want to play. But that's not going to happen. I'm not just anyone.

I leave their room, closing the door tightly. If they think I'm going to be someone's plaything, they're mistaken.
