Amy opened her eyes to see Luke dressing up and she gathered the sheets around herself.
"Luke?" She called and he stilled, he turned to her and offered a cocky smile.
"Where are you going?" She asked and he froze. Was she that stupid? If his mother caught them it wasn't going to be funny and despite beings a powerful person he still and would always respect his mother.
"Out, I have business" he said and Amy stared at him, her eyes said she didn't believe him but she said nothing and Luke sighed.
"Look, I understand but I have to go see this, it's important" he said and Amy scowled.
"You can quit lying to me Luke, you don't want to be seen with me. Why is that?" She said and Luke sighed, she really was observant.
"I don't know" he said deciding that lying wasn't going to change anything.
"So you sleep with other house help and not bother to hide, but with me you don't want your mother to know." She said bitterly and Luke blue stony eyes softened the tiniest bit.
"You know she doesn't like you" he said and Amy shot him a glare.
"Fine then why did you seduce me? When you've so thought about all these risks why did you seduce knowing that I wouldn't say no to you" she asked and Luke cursed in frustration.
"Dammit Amy…..I" he stopped as soon as he hears his mother's voice and he froze.
"Get dressed now" he ordered and went out the door and was gone. Amy hurriedly put in some clothes and seconds later, Luke's mother poked her head in and scowled.
"Still sleeping, get out of that room and fix something. Don't look for trouble Amy. I can't make your life hell in a instant. Get the hell out of there and go make breakfast" she said and Amy fled the room to the kitchen. She started making coffee and the herbal tea for Lady Bonucci. She heard Lady Bonucci come down the stairs and took the herbal tea Amy had already made down.
"Take Luke's coffee to his room, he must be tired" she said and walked away. Amy sighed, the universe must be laughing at her right now. She has made up her mind to avoid him but the universe kept bringing him her way. She sighed and took the coffee to his room and knocked on the door.
"Come in" came his deep voice. She pushed open the door and came in the same time he came out of the bathroom. She suddenly forgot how to breathe seeing him in a towel and all his body in perfect shape.
"I came to give you your coffee" she said and Luke stared at her."
"Is that all?" He asked and Amy nearly rolled her eyes but she just shook her head and turned to leave when he grabbed her arm.
"I didn't ask you to leave" he said and he pulled her hand away.
"You don't tell me what to do" she said and Luke raised a brow.
"Oh really, what would mother say about that then if I told that this was what you said?" He drawled and for a split second. Panic filled her system.
"You wouldn't" she said quietly and Luke smiled.
"Yes I wouldn't" he said with a smile and she nodded.
"Can I go now?" She asked and Luke closed the door.
"Like I said, I can't get enough of you. I want you so bad" he said but Amy frowned.
"You want my body not me" she said and Luke raised a brow.
"Aren't they the same thing" he asked and Amy looked away.
"I know what you want Luke, you want to use me enjoy yourself to the fullest then toss me aside. Probably offer me a huge sum of money" she said and Luke smiled.
"You know me so well" he said not bothering to deny what she just said because it was true.
"I am not doing anything with you" she said and Luke smiled confidently.
"Oh you will" he said and tossed aside his towel and of course she couldn't resist him. They ended up making love again.
____________________________________________________
"Do you love me?" She asked directly and Luke paused and got off the bed, he poured him self wine from an inbuilt fridge and stared at her.
"I told you are sweet, beautiful, every man's dream. You are….."
"Quit lying to Me!" She said and Luke stared at her in alarm.
"Quiet! Do you want everyone to know we are here." He said infuriating Amy the more.
"I don't care" she said, "Tell me you love me. Say it." She grounded out and for the first time in Luke's life he tried to say the word but he suddenly felt this choking in his throat and he couldn't bring himself to say it.
"I…..I.....gahhhh" he said and turned away, smashing the nearest wall with his fist. Amy's eyes widened in horror, all this years of hoping that maybe he would still remember their love. She had thought maybe after all the sex with her he would remember but here he was unable to say three simple words even if he didn't meant them.
"You don't get to do this to me" he growled and Amy gathered her things and stood.
"I am not doing anything to you" she said and left without another word. Luke didn't stop her but he felt upset. Especially because of the guilt he was feeling, he shouldn't be feeling guilty, he raised his glass of wine in his hand and grimaced.
"To you Dad, for dying so early." He said and downed everything in one gulp. He put the glass back in the fridge and put on his clothes. He shouldn't worry much about what she thought of him, frankly he didn't care. He was long past caring. He heard his mother say something about a ball tomorrow and Luke smiled, perhaps it was time to forget Amy. There would be other women who would be there, women more classy and exposed than her. He smiled to himself. This shouldn't be hard, one night with another woman and Amy was out of his head. But then the door opened and his mother stepped in looking furious.
