♥ Chapter 44♥
10:50 '' Horizonte Penitentiary. '' Cell. '' Zefíria.
Aurelia Dusk.
The guards removed my handcuffs, and I moved on with my mind troubled by what had happened. All I have to do is kill Lucian and it'll be over. '' I walked to the cafeteria and looked around for my friends, but I didn't see them.
Maybe they were still in the courtyard.
My mind was restless, and the throbbing pain in my cheek did nothing but aggravate my discomfort. I entered the courtyard with slow steps, worry eating me up inside. What will I tell them? How will I explain what happened?
'' I'm back, everyone. '' I announced my presence as I joined them, trying to hide my agitation.
'' What took you so long? Where were you? "Dina asked, looking at me with concern.
''The principal wanted to talk to me, the guards took me away without giving me time to warn them. '' I explained, and they all looked at me in surprise.
'' What did he want? Did he say anything about your sentence?" Tina asked, visibly worried.
I shook my head negatively.
"No, he just wanted to know how I was doing in prison, and also about the bruise on my cheek. "I pointed to the wound.
''Strange, he never did that to us or called us into the office. '' Trix commented, worried. ''Did he do or say anything?
I forced a smile.
'' No, relax. I thought it was strange too, but that's okay. All I wanted to do was get out of there. I couldn't stand looking at his face any longer. "I joked, drawing laughter from them.
I looked at the dominoes and sighed. Furthermore, we need to think calmly.
''Are you all right, dear? ''Hina asked, worried.
''Yes, I am; I'm just a bit tired,'' I replied, nodding.
They went back to playing dominoes, and I looked around for Lucian, but I couldn't find him at the Dragon table.
"Have you seen Lucian?" I asked, looking at them.
''He didn't come back after you went after him out of jealousy,'' Tina teased, laughing.
'' Fuck you. '' I retorted, and they laughed even harder.
''I'm going to get some rest; that conversation with the principal gave me a headache,'' I announced, getting up.
''All right, be careful on the way.'' Trix wished, concentrating on the dominoes.
'' Right, good game there.
I walked towards the exit of the courtyard, letting out a sigh on the way. I continued to the cafeteria and up the stairs towards his cell. Surprisingly, I found him asleep.
It was the first time I'd seen him sleeping in the afternoon. Usually, he's always active, keeping an eye on me. "Could what that man said be true? Even if I'm free, I'll become an assassin.
I looked at Lucian's sleeping face, remembering who he is: rough, possessive, and sometimes stupid. But... He saved me. He donated his blood, took care of my bruises, and even apologized for hitting me. I feel a wave of mixed gratitude and confusion. He has protected me from the other prisoners.
The way he looks at me makes my skin feel warm. I take a deep breath and let it out.
''Why are you standing there? ''I felt a jolt and saw him staring at me.
"Were you awake? "I asked, surprised.
'' I can't sleep without your warmth. '' He confessed, making me blush slightly. '' Where were you?
'' The director wanted to talk to me. '' I replied, seeing him arch an eyebrow.
'' What did he want? '' He asked, putting his hands behind his head.
''He wanted to know how I was because of the wound on my cheek. '' I pointed to the wound, and he ran his tongue over his lips.
''It's the first time I've seen that old man being friendly with someone. ''He commented, rolling his eyes.
''I thought it was strange too, but I didn't say much,'' I admitted, feeling a little nervous.
He stared at me for a moment.
''Come here. ''He called out to me, and I approached him slowly. ''You must be tired; I want to have your warmth close to me.
I sat down on the bed and he put his arm around my waist.
''Get on top of me. ''He asked, surprising me. ''Don't look at me like that; just do it, doll.
With a certain amount of embarrassment, I wrapped my legs around his waist and sat on his already slightly hardened member.
''It's been a week and a few days since you and I had sex,'' he murmured, moving his hands down to my ass and squeezing firmly, which made me sigh.
'' L-Lucian... '' I began, but he raised his hand to the back of my neck and pulled me into a searing kiss, making me tilt my head to meet his lips.
He deepened the kiss even more, and I let out a moan as I felt his tongue explore my mouth so skillfully. He really knew how to turn someone on with just a kiss. Likewise, he sucked my lips greedily, and I squeezed his overalls tightly as I felt the intensity of his movements.
I turned my face to the side to catch my breath while he licked and sucked my neck, provoking delicious sensations. His hands returned to my ass, rubbing his cock against my crotch over my overalls.
'' L-Lucian! '' I let out a moan as I felt the desire growing inside me.
''You drive me so crazy, Aurelia. '' His husky voice and light bites on my neck sent shivers through my body.
I let out another moan, unable to control the excitement he was arousing in me.
But I have to kill him.
I moved away from his body, sitting on him.
''I-I want to do something. ''I tried to keep my voice steady.
'' And what would that be? '' He held my waist with his big hands.
''C-Can you close your eyes, please? '' I asked, and he agreed, closing his eyes.
With trembling hands, I took the knife out of my pocket and placed it on his chest.
''Can I open my eyes, doll?
''Yes.
He opened his eyes, and I saw no surprise in his eyes when he saw me with the knife on his chest.
"Are you going to kill me, my love?" he asked calmly.
