You don't remember everything I did to you last night. It wasn't moral or legal, but I'm not sorry.". -Cari Silverwood, Wolfe
Kylie's POV
I don't know how but sometimes it's hard to understand people, what is going on in their minds and sometimes it's even hard for me to understand what is going on in my mind. Like at that time we were in the mall and were trying to buy a dress for Emma for her baby shower but my mind kept wandering. It's still hard to believe what Luca had done to me twice and I enjoyed every moment with him without any doubt. I was thinking that we two needed to talk about it. I wanted to ask what was going on between us and why did he call me Tia the other night. I did not know about my past at that time and used to think that I did not have a nickname. Another thing was nobody had ever called me by this name before.
Anyway, I thought of going to his place a couple of days later and then I would ask him all my questions.
"Kylie what do you think about this dress, Emma asked me by breaking my thoughts. "I don't think it's too good, let's go to another store, I don't think they have many designs here anyway," I told her after looking around in search of a perfect dress for her baby shower. "You are right. We just wasted our time here, let's go somewhere else" she said and with that, we moved into another store. The dresses in that store were amazing. They had different sections for maternal dresses. I was looking around in search of a perfect dress and then I got hooked by a red dress. "Kylie where are you going!" Emma shouted so loudly that people around us were looking at us like we came from another planet. I rolled my eyes at her because I knew how much trouble she could be. But again what are best friends for? "I think I found the one, " I told her with a wink.
She came along with me, her eyes widened "OmigoddOmigod, I am buying it!" she shouted again. Here we go again. "Emm, honey hold on, don't shout like that, people are looking, they will think we are weirds," I told her and looked around the store. "Oops I am sorry I just got excited, Anyway I am taking the dress and gonna try it" she took the dress and went to the trial room. I started checking out some more dresses then I found a blue colour one piece. It was looking so elegant, I knew I was buying it and got the idea to wear it to Luca's place.
We were sitting in a restaurant waiting for our order because Emma was hungry and I was too. The shopping took a toll on us. So we both chose Emma's favourite restaurant for the lunch. The restaurant was warm and cosy, nothing too fancy.
"Hey Kylie, look it's your cousin Erika with your ex" she shouted at the top of her lungs. People started looking our way. I closed her mouth by putting my hand on her mouth so that she could not shout again and smiled sheepishly at the people. Sometimes I wonder why I am friends with her.
Then I felt a kick on my feet, I groaned in pain and looked at the person who caused it, she was looking at me furiously and pulled my hand from her mouth.
"What do you think you were doing, huh? Closing a pregnant lady's mouth, what If I had died because of suffocation" she exclaimed with a dramatic expression.
I was not in the mood to argue so I decided to apologise and tried to cool her down.
"Do you think, they saw us?" I asked her once she cooled down. "No I don't think so, otherwise she would have come to you to show off her new engagement ring. And it's her third engagement right? " she asked while munching on her Burger.
"I think so too and nope it's her fourth engagement. She broke up with her fiance last month" I muttered when the waiter brought us some juice. "Really? I don't understand how people can move on within a few days just after the breakup. I can understand when people who don't have a serious relationship move on easily but when you have been in a relationship for a whole year, live with each and are close to getting married, how could you get engaged to someone within one month after your breakup?" She scoffed. "I know Emma what are you talking about? It took me more than one year to move on. But let's not judge. Let them do whatever they want." I took a sip of my juice. Emma suddenly looked toward me and stopped eating. I raised my eyebrows at her "Will you go to her engagement??" she asked me curiously and then went on munching on her French fries. "I don't know! Do you think I should go?" I asked her with a sigh. "According to me, there are two things to point out here, one if you will go then you will have to face your entire family which you hate with all your guts and they will not spare any moment to put you down then you should not go and the second point is if you want to show your stupid ex that you have moved on and you are not sulking over him then you should go," she said while looking at me.
"You know, you have confused me more now," I told her with a small laugh. "I know I have moved on, I don't even think about him and I don't even feel anything towards him whenever I see or imagine him with Erika. I know Erika is a bitch, she thinks that I still have feelings for Ian but she's wrong about that. Yes, when he left me I was hurt but I was not devastated, I knew it was meant to an end. So I never tried and made efforts to talk to Ian and patch up" I told her.
"You know sometimes I am proud of you. After all the things, you have suffered you still shine like a star and that's the thing I like the most about you" she said with a genuine smile. "And sometimes I think that's why I am friends with you," She said with a laugh and in response, I stuck my tongue out at her.
After some time I dropped Emma at her flat and headed back to my home. After reaching there I decided to kill time by reading a book. I had a quest of reading paranormal books. So I picked a paranormal one. I was lost in the plot when I heard my phone ring.
The name on the phone was enough to give me a headache. I was in dilemma whether to pick up the phone or not. But I decided to pick it up although I knew why were they calling me. "hey, aunt Kathy, how are you doing?" I asked with fake enthusiasm. I knew she had heard my tone. "I have called you to remind you about Erika's engagement with Ian that is on upcoming Friday. I hope to see you there sharp at 7 pm, I will text you the address of the venue" she said within one line and cut the call without hearing my response. Sigh!!! I didn't expect much from her, I knew she had been like this since the beginning when it came to me, always to the point.
I was still confused about attending the engagement. I did not want to meet the whole family, I already had enough of them.
My mother left me when I was eleven, leaving me alone to live with them. From what I had heard from my aunts that my mother came here with me when I was right. My maternal family did not know anything about my father. My father was never in the picture according to my mother. But I had some idea that he was living with me and my mother. Sometimes I got weird dreams that I had a perfect family that I had always wanted when I was a kid. But I never remembered the faces the next morning. Now when I found out about everything I know why I did not remember them.
After my mother died, I lived with my aunt Kathy and her husband James and their two children Erika and Mason. Nobody treated me like their own. All of them would taunt me that how their money was getting wasted on me, I should not have been born, I was a child out of wedlock. But at least they didn't beat me. It helped me in getting independent, I started working as a babysitter for my pocket money, did the household chores and in return, my aunt paid my school fee, I started doing part-time jobs for my college fees. Although I got the scholarship I still did not stop working.
I had not seen anyone from my maternal family except Erika.
It's a Wednesday evening, I was working on a project. Then I got a notification on my phone from Emma. It showed that Emma has sent me something. I opened it, and there was an article about Luca, that how much people have loved his new Whiskey collection. I told Emma about Luca when we went shopping. A part of me was missing him. I knew I needed to talk to him but I was not sure if he would talk to me and what if he was just using me. I tried not to think about that part. I knew it was not love either, it was just Lust from both sides.
I wrapped up my stuff after a long and tiring day at work. The weekend passed without any event except the engagement call from my aunt. I didn't bring my car today because one of my colleagues picked me up from my apartment so I had to hire a cab or taxi.
Once I reached the road I was looking for a taxi then suddenly I heard a car stop right in front of me and the door of the car opened and I was getting pulled inside the car. I screamed my lungs out, but then I noticed Luca was sitting on the other side of the car with a cringed look on his face because of my screaming. I opened my mouth to say something but nothing came out.
"I know what are you thinking right now. But I am not going to kill you or torture you. I am just taking you to my place so we can talk and I know you would have wanted to talk to me after all the things we have done." How could someone say anything like this so normally? I wondered. Just thinking about those moments was enough to make my cheeks grow got. I blushed when I heard the last part of what he said but quickly dismissed it.
"Oh really, you could have normally talked to me or come to my place instead of abducting me" I retorted giving him a side glance.
"Last time I remember we didn't do anything normal Miss Kirby, Did we? Then why should we have a normal conversation" he remarked with a hint of a smile on his face.
I squirmed at my seat because of his heated gaze but then he pulled me on his lap and brought his lips to my neck and started sucking my neck. I gasped and touched his shoulder. Then he suddenly tore the buttons of my blouse and I gasped in horror. Before I could say anything he tore my bra too and took one of my pebbles in his mouth. I could not help but moan. Damn, I had always loved it whenever he used to do that. He was biting them.
"You still have the hickeys I gave you a few days ago," he said while looking at my chest. "Do they still sting?" I shook my head no. I started looking behind me, wondering if the driver can see us. "Don't worry Jackson can neither hear nor see us".
Luca told me and showed me the partition between us.
He then kissed me on my lips. I looked at the mess he did and sighed.
"My my Now we have to rectify the situation" he whispered while looking at my chest. He then removed his coat and helped me in wearing it.
He didn't let me go. I was still on his lap, he kissed my forehead and made me lay my head on his shoulder. It was very comforting and soothing for me. I loved being in his lap. It was perfect. We stayed like that for some more time. Then the car came to the stop.
"We have reached," Luca announced and helped in hopping out of the car.
I came out cautiously because I was wearing his coat and my blouse and bra I had underneath the coat were torn by him. He then took my hand and led me toward his apartment. It was not huge but it was an elegant two-storey building with glasses. "Why did you bring me here?" I asked him. "You wanted to talk, So let's talk then," he answered with a small smile and pulled me inside his apartment...
