Filed to story: Bring It On My Mafia Life Novel (Rhea & Lukas)
[Don’t change the topic or branch off, we are talking about Lukas Junior, not dirty talking]
[What gave the impression that I was dirty talking? It’s all about Lukas Junior and the privileges the little fucker is stealing from me. Trust me, love, if I was dirty talking, your undies would be off by now]
Rhea went beet red.
That cunning trickster!
Lukas knew what he was doing.
This was reverse psychology!
[You’re a big bully! ] She inserted an angry emoji.
As if to placate her, Lukas sent a gif image to her. But what surprised Rhea was that it was a gif image of him and when she clicked on it, it showed Lukas wearing a panty. It was her red sexy bikini panty and he was wriggling his ass for her.
“What the hell….! “
Rhea burst into loud laughter that startled Redhead and in turn stirred Samson.
“Oops,” She was in trouble.
Rhea took off before Samson could realize she was the one that ruined his peaceful sleep.
You Are Protecting Elijah
[I thought you were a busy man, when did you have the time to create that?]
Rhea referred to the gif.
She found his gazebo and decided to spend time there. Moreover, her chat with Lukas was becoming interesting and she didn’t want to miss out on it. So she settled down on the seat, her eyes glued to the screen of her phone, and Lukas’s answer came out quickly as usual.
[I’ll never be too busy for you]
[What a sweet talker. How many ladies have you won over with those words]
It was ridiculous.
Rhea didn’t even know why she typed those words, but she just wanted to know. Was she that special or had there been a more special woman in his life before her arrival? Lukas might have told her that she was his first love, but she was a kid then and didn’t fully comprehend the concept, of “love”. In one word, she just wanted to know. Rhea wanted to know her place in his heart was unshakeable.
[None]
Lukas answered curtly and Rhea was a bit disappointed. He could have said more words, you know. However, to her surprise, Lukas dropped another message and her prayer was answered.
…..
[You’re the first woman I’m in a romantic relationship with. All of the women in my life were there for one purpose and that was to satisfy my sexual urges and needs. However, the moment I laid my eyes on you in that coffee shop, my soul resonated deep inside of me and I just knew it, you are worth much more than the others. You are not just here to scratch my itch Rhea, you are here to last a lifetime.]
Words failed Rhea the moment she read those words. If she ever had any doubts concerning Lukas’s feelings for her, it was cleared at that moment. And she couldn’t keep lying to him either, Rhea had to tell him about Elijah.
[I need to ask you something] She typed, [Promise not to be angry]
[I promise my love, anything for you]
Rhea took a deep breath, it was now or never. So she began to type down,
[If Elijah were to return your weapons, would you let him go?]
Rhea’s heart began to pound in her throat the moment she sent those words and when the blue dots showed Lukas received them, her anxiety increased.
She saw the floating dots showing that Lukas was typing, but then he suddenly went offline and her stomach dropped. Lukas was angry, she was sure of that.
Her palms became clammy and Rhea was still wondering what she was going to do when Lukas came online again and her hope grew, perhaps he wasn’t as mad as she thought.
Ding!
He sent a message to her
[Where are you?]
Rhea swallowed down the lump in her throat. Lukas wanted to see her. It did not sound good, nonetheless, she answered,
[In the gazebo]
And he went offline.
At once, Rhea fortified herself mentally knowing an interrogation was forthcoming. This was the reason she couldn’t tell Lukas about Elijah, he was irrational. She let Lukas decide Macy, why couldn’t he listen to her when it comes to Elijah?
Macy was a great help to Lukas and in like manner, Elijah was the same to her too. He saved her from Big Joe and was her boyfriend. She couldn’t just let Lukas end his life because of their feud when they could settle this civilly. No, she would never look at Lukas the same way if he killed Elijah out of his petty jealousy.
Perhaps, Elijah was right, she would never be free no matter how Lukas sugar-coated it.
Lukas arrived and his jaw was set and held her with a stern look. Here, they go.
“Lukas….”
However, Lukas boxed her in, his hands on either side of her as he demanded, “Tell me, what do you know about Elijah?”
“What?” Rhea acted clueless, “What are you talking about?”
“Don’t take me for a fool, Rhea,” He hissed through gritted teeth, “I’ve been with you long enough to know you’re only curious when you’ve caught up to something. What is it you know about Elijah?”
“No, I know nothing,”
“Rhea!” He screamed at her face, close to losing control.
“It’s nothing!” Rhea shouted back, “I was only thinking that I could find him and if that were to happen, would you be willing to let him go if I convince him to release your guns,” She gave him her initial plans until Elijah himself decided to reveal himself to her.
“You are not going to go near him! ” Lukas growled an order – one that she wasn’t willing to obey.
