♥ Chapter 28♥

00:20 '' The Moretti residence. '' Italy.

Enzo D'Angelo.

When I arrive at the twins' house, I feel a sense of relief mixed with exhaustion. The car stops in front of the entrance, and Lucas quickly gets down to open the door for me. His gesture is courteous, but there's a mischievous smile on his lips.

''You know I have hands, right?'' he says, giving me a sideways smile.

''I know, but I can try to be a bit of a knight too.'' I take a deep breath, trying to disguise my tiredness.

Lucas laughs lightly, but the tension in the room is palpable. Luan, who is also getting out of the car, still has a closed expression, even though he says he's calmed down. I sigh, feeling a weight on my shoulders, and head into the house. We go upstairs in silence, each immersed in our own thoughts.

''I'm going to take a shower,'' I say, trying to distract myself from the tension in the air. I go to the twins' closet to get some comfortable clothes.

I choose a pair of gray silk pajamas, the soft texture contrasting with the turmoil I feel inside. Furthermore, I walk towards the bathroom, trying to get away from the memories of the party. I'm not a fan of wearing underwear when I go to sleep, so I decided to leave it off to feel more comfortable.

As I enter the bathroom, I see my reflection in the mirror. I see that my cheeks are still a little red, a visual reminder of the altercation that took place earlier. I mutter to myself with a tone of irritation.

'' Just because of that, they freak out.

I remove my clothes, leaving them carefully in the laundry basket. I look at my back and notice that it's quite red. A feeling of unease sets in as I realize that the mark will surely turn purple the next day.

“It'll definitely be purple tomorrow,” I say to myself, trying to resign myself to the situation.

I step into the shower stall and turn on the shower, allowing the hot water to start falling on my body. I close my eyes and let the water run down my skin, feeling the instant relief it brings. The sensation of the hot water soothing my tense muscles is exactly what I need right now.

I feel the warmth of the water mix with my internal heat, and for a brief moment, the emotional and physical turmoil seem to subside. The drops of water cascade down, creating a sense of tranquility that helps me relax. The pressure of the water helps to dissipate the accumulated tension, and I allow myself to stand under the shower for a few minutes, soaking in the comforting sensation.


''Ah, I required that. '' I mutter, breathing a sigh of relief.

Eventually, the water starts to cool down, and I decide it's time to get out. I step out of the shower, enveloped in steam and the feeling of renewal that the shower has brought. The bathroom is quiet, and the tranquility is a welcome relief after the chaos of the night.

I dry off with a towel and put on the silk pajamas I've chosen. The soft fabric is a comfort to my skin, and I feel a little more relaxed.

I leave the bathroom already dressed, with the sensation of the dry towel still slightly abrasive on my skin. When I enter the bedroom, I find Lucas and Luan sitting on the bed with serious expressions that contrast with the relaxed atmosphere of the evening. The atmosphere is charged, and I feel I need a little clarity to dispel the unease.

''Are you still angry?'' I ask, looking at them with a mixture of tiredness and concern. ''I told you, everything's fine.

Lucas, with a serious expression and a tone of voice full of sincerity, replies:

''We don't like to hear that you've been hurt, Enzo.

Luan, with an expression of frustration and a tone that mixes concern and venting, adds:

“We can be playful and silly, but that's just you. When someone decides to hurt you, we can't be calm.

I let out a deep sigh, trying to process their words and absorb their concern. I approach them, intending to reaffirm my ability to deal with the situation.

''I'm the son of mobsters, or rather, two mobsters. I know how to take care of myself.” I say this, trying to convey the confidence I feel in my own ability to deal with challenges.

Luan, with a determined look and an expression that reflects his desire to take care of me, takes my hand and pulls me closer. I feel a mixture of surprise and suspicion.

''What are you doing?'' I ask with a hint of skepticism in my voice.

''I want to do something. Can I?'' he asks, looking at me with a mixture of desire and determination.

''And what would that be, Luan?'' I ask, feeling a growing unease.

''I promise you'll like it. '' he says as he gently pulls me onto the bed.

The sensation of being abruptly pulled onto the bed is unexpected and makes me feel a mixture of irritation and nervousness.

''Fuck, Luan, don't fucking pull me like that! '” I exclaimed, irritated and surprised.

My eyes widen when I see Lucas standing above me, his dominant presence intensifying the situation.

''What... '' I start to ask, but I'm interrupted by an intense, impetuous kiss.

The kiss is urgent, with Lucas' tongue entering my mouth with unexpected force. I sigh against his lips, feeling the way he sucks my tongue with insatiable desire. The sensation is overwhelming and disconcerting.

I feel a tug at the bottom of my pyjamas and my heart races with surprise.

''What are you doing, Luan?'' I ask, my voice shaking with astonishment as I break the kiss.

Luan, with a look full of promises and a soft tone, tries to calm my confusion:

''I promise you'll like it, love. Just relax a little.

I look at him, trying to understand what's going on. I've never been in a situation like this before, and the fear of the unknown makes me hesitate.

'' Luan... I've never done these things, you know that. I'm very confused.'' My voice comes out hesitantly, as Lucas gently kisses my cheek in a tender gesture.

''We know that, beautiful,'' Lucas says with a reassuring tone. ''Let us show you what we can do for you. Just stay calm and relaxed, because you're going to like it.

Lucas kisses me again, deepening the kiss and leaving me breathless. I'm taken aback when Luan's warm hand begins to explore my body, enveloping me in a way that makes me moan involuntarily.
