Filed to story: Bring It On My Mafia Life Novel (Rhea & Lukas)
“Because this is all your fault, asshole!” Victor stood up abruptly – but not without grabbing a bread roll from the tray and took a savage bite out of it like a caveman – and left the same way he came.
…..
Lukas was stunned by his cousin’s attitude and was only able to recover when he was gone. He then yelled at the empty space, “Come back here, you little, arrogant brat!” Lukas was unable to control his anger, glaring at his empty seat.
Meanwhile, Rhea wrapped her arms across her chest, watching the drama and when it looked as if Lukas had calmed down a bit, she faced him,
“I guess I’m not the only one you hurt in your quest to get what you want. How horrible you must feel right now,” She said with fake sympathy.
“Not you too, please,” Lukas pleaded with closed ones, rubbing his temple. He had so much on his plate already and he didn’t want her to add to it – and she was good at goading him.
It wouldn’t be easy to win back Victor. This wasn’t the time either for the both of them to be at each other’s throat, not when Elijah’s case was still unsolved. They worked like the wheels on a bicycle and Lukas couldn’t function properly without his cousin. He had to find a way to get Victor to forgive him.
“Why?” Rhea went on nonetheless with his warning. What’s the worst that he could do to her? She already experienced it all.
And let’s be honest here, even if he locked her up again, if she played her cards well, he’d be the one letting her out and begging for her forgiveness.
He told her he likes her? she was going to use that. The worst mistake Lukas made was giving her that privilege.
“You don’t seem like the type to welcome people’s opinions. I’m just stating what I saw,” She laughed sarcastically, “What did you do to your cousin, Lukas? It doesn’t seem like you hit him else the bruises would be on his face?”
Lukas growled at her, “I’m not abusive,”
“That’s rich coming from the mouth of someone who kidnapped me….” She paused and laughed, “Wait a minute, don’t tell me you kidnapped someone he likes?” she randomly guessed.
His expression shifted.
She caught it.
“My God,” Rhea gasped, “You must really like kidnapping people? First, me, then, Mimi, and now, even your cousin’s crush? What’s wrong with you? You must like kidnapping people and all since you’re the boss and have the power to do whatever you want? Tell me, Lukas, kidnapping people, does it turn you on? Damn, you really need help before you turn into a full pledged psychopath,” Rhea fired at him without mercy.
She wanted to provoke him and it was working because Lukas’s eyes flashed and in the next minute, he was upon her. Even when he loomed above her, Rhea didn’t back down. Gone were her days of running, she was not afraid of him anymore. She would love to see what he could do best.
He hurled her up to her feet without warning and though her heart was pounding in her throat, Rhea didn’t show fear. Not even when he had his hands around her throat and could squeeze the life out of her.
But Lukas didn’t crush her windpipe nor choke her, his hand was just there as a reminder of how fragile she was and how easily he could end her.
“Do it then,” Rhea met his challenge, lifting her chin, “I’ve provoked and challenged you long enough, isn’t it enough crime to take away my life, Boss?” she said with a sneer.
Lukas’s jaw ticked and his eyes looked like it would spit fire anytime soon which was a huge contrast to the way he held her neck, almost caressing it, not that Rhea noticed. For all she knows, it was warm-up before he decided to choke her to death.
And as she guessed, his hand tightened in the next minute, cutting off the air she was breathing in. Her eyes widened, he really wanted to kill her? Fine! Let him do it! She’d be rid of him and this world and finally find the peace she craved in the afterlife.
Lukas’s voice was a growl as he said, “You asked me if kidnapping turns me on? No, it doesn’t. But I’ll show you what turns me on,” He suddenly released her throat to her surprise and she was able to breathe.
However, Rhea hardly got a lungful of air before his hand went around her waist, pressing her flush against his body as his lips crashed down on her.
Rhea forgot how to breathe once more because he stole the little air she managed to snag before her time was up. Her body stilled as her brain attempted to interpret what was going on?
Lukas was kissing her?
She Had Never Felt This Disgraced
Rhea froze.
Her body stiffened for like a minute or so before she realized what was going on and was appalled. How dare he?!
Rhea tried to pull away but Lukas had a bruising hold on her waist and she couldn’t pull away. His kiss wasn’t gentle either, it was brutal – and arrogant.
He was trying to show her who had the upper hand here and he was winning. Lukas knew how much she loathed him touching her and yet that was what he did.
His lips were not gentle at all, his tongue invading her mouth and stealing the little air she managed to snatch. The more she struggled against him, the further aware she was of her body pressing against his and her breast squeezing into his chest.
His heart was pounding loudly and she could tell it wasn’t from exertion but from the same desire trying to affect her. No, she can’t lose control. Not now.
Thankfully, Lukas had to withdraw for them to be able to breathe. He broke apart from her, his gray eyes darkened with lustful desire that sent shivers down her spine.
“Y-you-!” She shouted, glaring furiously at him while trying to catch her breath, ” How dare you -!”
But that was as far as she could speak, because he cradled her head and settled his lips over hers once again.
…..
What the hell is wrong with him tonight? Rhea didn’t have the time to complain because he was brutalizing her lips once again.
This neanderthal man?! Doesn’t he know the law? This is assault! She would make him understand that – after surviving this.
As he shoved his tongue inside her mouth this time, Rhea snapped her teeth together intending to sink them into his tongue.
However, Lukas anticipated her move and just as she was about to execute it, he grabbed her ass and ground her against him with all of his strength. Rhea gasped and that was all the opening he needed to conquer her mouth, his tongue exploring every corner of her teeth and further.
Rhea moaned and he swallowed the sound, the tension finally leaving her body. She was unable to deny him any longer, swamped by too many emotions. Rhea was drained of all fight and right now, she just wanted to succumb to her body’s desires.
This felt good and what’s the use of fighting anyway when it would only push Lukas into exerting his dominance over her. So she gave in and her hands previously shoving against the muscles of his chest were now pulling him closer. She loved the feel of their body pressed together.
Unlike earlier when it seemed like Lukas was at war with her mouth, he eased the brutality of the kiss this time. It was intense and passionate and she kissed him back with the same feverish heat.
Their mouths were still locked together when he turned and pinned her against the table. She whimpered from the pain but he was quick to soothe her with his deep kisses.
“Lukas,” Rhea moaned his name, digging her hands into his hair. Her heart picked up speed while blood rushed to her head. She was in heaven on earth and it was pretty crazy.
It wasn’t until Lukas began to tug at the hem of her oversized shirt and the other trailed down her bare skin sending pleasure between her legs that Rhea began to understand the severity of what she was doing – and with who.
She protested by slapping his palm away and thankfully he didn’t push her further, choosing to focus on the kiss and how it affected her body.
Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end because they eventually came up for air and Rhea came down from the cloud nine she had previously been on.
“You bastard?!” She screamed and lifted her hand to hit him but Lukas grabbed it. Rhea tried the other hand but he seized it as well and she was unable to get out of his grasp.
