CHAPTER FOURTEEN
Lucy
The waiters bring steaming platters over on the platforms. I felt anxious as I scrolled through Lucaâs phone, where the e-menu was, looking at all the delicious meals and then turning my eyes to the salad. I havenât been to very many restaurants in my life, but whenever I do go I always order something that wonât fill me up.
I never want to be seen as the curvy girl pigging out.
But Luca reads me perfectly, as he always seems to be able to do. He read me and growled that I should order whatever the hell I want to eat. That fire came into his eyes, the rage that floods him whenever he thinks Iâm doing something not because I want to do, but because I feel like I should because itâs been conditioned into me.
So I ordered a burger and fries with a milkshake on the side.
Screw it.
He finds me beautiful no matter what.
âGreat,â he said, as I passed the phone back. âIâll take the same.â
Now the waiter is gone and itâs just us and our food, throwing steamy enticing smells into the air.
âThis looks delicious,â he says, picking up his burger. He makes it look small in his giant paw.
âIt does,â I say, my fingers itching to grab it.
âWhat are you waiting for?â
He takes a massive bite, grinning at me as he chews.
I giggle. âIs this your way of making sure I donât feel embarrassed?â
He nods as he chews, and I pick up my burger and take a bite. Our eyes meet and we laugh as we chew, both of us caught up in the moment, the whirlpool of being together and laughing simply because it feels good.
I wash it down with my banana milkshake and he does the same with his chocolate one.
âI canât believe you went with banana,â he says, with a bantering note in his voice, all fun.
âI canât believe you wouldnât. Banana is a milkshake fit for a goddess, thank you very much.â
He chuckles. âThen itâs fit just for you. I wonât deny that. But chocolate, Lucy, chocolate⦠you canât beat it. Itâs the sweetest thing there is.â
âThatâs how you work, is it? You jump on the sweetest thing as soon as you see it?â
âI claimed you without hesitation, didnât I?â he says, passion pulsing in his voice. âNothing couldâve stopped me from doing that. But I still donât know what you want, Lucy.â
âHuh?â
âIn life. Apart from me and our family, of course⦠and if thatâs all you want, Iâll support you in that. Iâll support you in whatever you choose to do, always. Except if you ever wanted to leave me and be with another manââ
âNever,â I cry, the thought alone provoking a violent response inside of me, everything roaring in protest.
âThen Iâll always support you.â He smirks. âSo what is it, my perfect virgin? What is your passion?â
I take another bite, thinking as I chew, and then dab at my lips with a napkin. I keep expecting him to cringe or
