Chapter 39
Lia pov.
I watched as they dragged Luca. Pain gripped me. What pained me the most was that I did not know how to save him. I am quite sure he had a business with Sabrina because of the way he looked at her.
“Go to your room Lia,” Sabrina said in a steel voice standing beside Luca. I furrowed my eyebrows. I thought she was on his side. I knew she was not meant to be trusted.
I glared at her as I inwardly blamed myself for what happened. If I had told Luca that I wanted to go he would have followed me and Lorenzo would have not been able to trick me into his way.
Dean cleared his throat bringing me out of my thoughts “ You seem to be glaring at Sabrina. Do you have a problem with that? Or is it because I stabbed your lover?” he asked with a smirk on his face.
I swallowed the anger in me and replaced it with a smile. “No, I don't have a problem with it” which was a very big lie. “I was just wondering who would be a mate to a soulless man like you” Immediately I said those words one of the men brought out his gun pointing it at me.
Dean's eyes darkened with anger “You-” he began but Sabrina cut him shut resting her hands on his own.
“Lia go to your room,” she said with finality in her voice.
I glared at the both of them and entered into my room. Immediately I entered, I locked the door behind me with anger and began to unzip my clothes when I caught sight of something on my table.
A rose flower with a letter. Who could have brought this for me? Had Luca been released? Then the familiar scent hit my nose. I turned around to meet Finn at the corner of my room staring intensively at me with a smirk on his face.
I turned back to zip my clothes back “How did you get in?” I asked.
He chuckled a little bit “Don't you think that is a very funny question?” He asked as he walked towards me with his hands tucked into the pocket of his sweat pants, his white long-sleeve shirt hugged his body enhancing his abs. Is it just the mate bond or does this man happen to appear more attractive day by day?
I turned around to look at him his eyes darkened but he was not staring at me. He was staring at my body, at the Mark and every other thing.
“What happened? Who did this to you?” I bent my head naively. I was not even meant to be with him after what I promised Luca. I remained quiet, it seemed as if my quietness irritated the hell out of him.
He strolled towards me until it was just the air keeping us apart, he bent his face to my ear and whispered harshly “Lia, for the sake of our relationship when I ask you a question, especially one that has to do with someone harming you. You answer me. You don't keep quiet” he whispered as his hot breath fanned my ear lobe.
I refused to talk, why would he pretend that he cared when all he did was come to my room to have fun while his beta killed my father-in-law?
“It's none of your business” I answered quietly.
He took in a shaky breath, his ear reddened In anger “You are my mate Lia and the future Luna to my pack. It is my business” he warned.
“There is no need to act like you care. Why are you here? Is your beta also here to kill Dean since all he does is kill people while you visit your mate's bed to comfort while you kill her Alpha”
A glint of anger passed through his eyes. He brushed his hair roughly. “I spared your life lia. We were meant to kill his Luna but I spared your life because you are my mate. Someone had to fill in for it” he explained his eyes gradually softened.
My heart skipped a bit. Should I believe him? What If he was lying? He came closer his hands cupped my cheeks hot warmth passed through me. I leaned into my palm and closed my eyes.
“Who did this to you?” He asked again softly. I opened my eyes to meet his blue one staring at me.
Memories of what Dean did to me flashed before my eyes. The pepper rub, the whip, I even died for a minute.
“Dean” I whispered.
His eyes darkened as he withdrew his palm from my face leaving a vacuum. He walked around the room as he cursed under his breath. He turned to look at me his voice filled with determination. “We are leaving,” he said and took my hand.
I dragged my hands out of his own “No”
“What?” He asked, his forehead folded.
“I said no. I told you to give me two weeks and you said okay” I told him.
“Are you so interested in dying? A man like him can kill you next time. Have you taken a good look at yourself? You look weak, pale like a pack of bones and you want me to leave you here? So that when next I come you will be dead? “ he asked me.
His words touched me a lot but I can't. Luca risked his life for me. How would he feel if he had found out that I left with my mate, he had made me promise him that I was going to stay with me. He needed me but this mate bond willed me to go with Finn, my mind still went back to him when I was alone.
“Just give me one week, please. I am about to live my life and follow you and I had a life before you came. I have friends and I have a guardian. I need to tell them goodbye” he looked at me and nodded.
He walked towards me and pressed his lips to mine quickly and mumbled “One week before you become mine” he said and left.
A knock immediately came to my door, and my heart dropped. Hope I did not do anything to them again.
