Filed to story: Bring It On My Mafia Life Novel (Rhea & Lukas)
“What is it?” Mimi was concerned after seeing her expression.
“I think I just shot myself in the foot,” Rhea felt like crying.
She had intentionally made that demand to Lukas knowing that he would never fulfill it. Lukas was very possessive and interested in her as well, what male in his right mind would risk his love interest falling for another? Definitely not Lukas.
But that was what she thought. Facing her now was reality – Luca was here. And Lukas really got her an attractive male like she wanted. No, this was impossible. It was not like Lukas. He must have threatened the poor man into doing this.
So she asked him, “Luca, right?”
“Yes, Ma’m?”
“What would happen if you hit on me?”
He blinked, supposedly surprised by her question. But Luca cleared his throat and answered confidently, “You can rest assured that would never happen.”
Rhea was intrigued – and challenged as well. This was the first time a man was telling her in the face that he was not interested in her.
“How can you be so sure of that? I’ve been told by many that I’m a siren beauty,”
“That’s actually easy because I’m gay,”
Have A Sexual Relationship With Lukas
“He’s gay,” Rhea muttered for the hundredth time already. Luca had left, he only came to introduce himself to her before he started his work officially.
The gay Adonis was going to be her personal guard from now?
Before Mimi knew what was going on, Rhea started to laugh as if she had finally lost her mind.
“Hey!” Mimi scolded her, “Would you stop scaring me like that. Between the both of us who should even be sadder?! As if you were going to start something with him in the first place?!”
But Rhea shook her head, “You don’t understand, Mimi. I thought I was smart, but Lukas always seems to be one step ahead of my plans,” She was defeated.
Rhea threw her hands up in frustration, “How could he think of such an idea. How could he exploit a loophole like this?!”
But her friend Mimi whom she was talking to was depressed as well, “Why are the handsome men gay?” she asked no one in particular.
However, Mimi’s phone beeped with a message at that moment and her eyes lit up. She then looked suspiciously at her friend and when she saw Rhea was not looking at her, she quickly typed down a message and turned the phone so the back was on top.
“A-hem,” Mimi cleared her throat, “But on the bright side, it worked for your favor anyway,”
…..
Rhea turned to her, “For my favor? How? He would monitor my movements twenty – four hours, seven days, and report to Lukas. How is that being lucky?”
“I’m just saying him being gay saved his life else Lukas would really kill if he hits you. Also, guys are extremely jealous of the woman they like? Have you even considered dating Lukas?”
Rhea was so taken aback by that question that her jaw dropped and her eyes widened to the size of saucers. She narrowed her gaze at Mimi, “Are you seriously suggesting that to me right now?”
Rhea couldn’t believe Mimi of all people would say that to her. Her friend had been all about getting the hell out of here, and now she wants her to date the man who is responsible for her being here. This has got to be the joke of the century.
If it wasn’t for the drama earlier – Mimi likes hot guys – Rhea would have thought that Lukas got someone else, a doppelganger or something in place of the real Mimi to confuse her.
Mimi scratched the back of her head, “I’m just saying Lukas might not be what you think of him and if you got closer instead of fighting, things would be much easier,”
“Ha! You talk as if you know him that well” Rhea huffed, then leaned closer to check her friend’s temperature with concern, “Are you well at all, or has this place begun to poison your mind. Oh God, I knew I shouldn’t have got you involved in this.”
“Rhea, I’m fine!” Mimi calmed her panicking friend, “Look at me, I’m totally good. It was just a mere suggestion.”
“A mere suggestion, really? Have you forgotten that I’m Elijah’s girlfriend?” she reminded her.
But Mimi gave her a deadpanned look, “Are we going there right now?”
“Mimi, he promised that we would be together,”
“And you believe the promises of a man who you have not seen for over a month plus now?”
“He would come back for me!” Rhea was sure, “I don’t know much about Elijah, but he always keeps his promises.”
However, Mimi groaned in annoyance, wiping her face with her palm, “Sometimes I don’t know if you are just naive or simply idiotic,”
“I just trust -“
“Fine, let’s say he comes back for you as he promised? Do you think he would still love you the same way? No,” Mimi quickly rephrased the question, “Do you think you would still love him the same way?”
“W-what?” Rhea gulped, having an inkling of where this conversation was heading, “O-f course,” She laughed awkwardly, “Why wouldn’t I still like him?”
But Mimi had not given up, she grabbed Rhea and made her face her. With her gaze on her, Mimi boldly asked her, “Look me in the eyes and tell me you don’t feel a thing for Lukas?”
“What?” Rhea squeaked, her breathing getting heavy.
“Don’t lie to me and tell me the truth,”
Rhea bit on her lips, does she have feelings for Lukas? That was impossible, what does she see in that brute.
“I feel attracted to him but that’s all lust. It’s nothing special like what I feel for Elijah,” She was quick to defend her new, complicated feelings for Lukas.
“Then act on it then.”
“What?” Her eyes almost bulged out of their socket, “What are you talking about?” was this still the Mimi she knows? Why was her friend talking in this manner? Something was not right here.
“Have a sexual relationship with Lukas,”
“Oh, no, no, no,” Rhea shook her head in denial, “That is so not happening,” However, just because Rhea doesn’t want to do it doesn’t mean she hasn’t thought about it.
“How long are you going to remain a virgin? Till you grow old? Rhea, you have a man as hot as sin willing to wipe those cobwebs in between your legs, what are you still waiting for?”
Rhea stubbornly turned the other way, “You are corrupting me, Mimi.”
