I hadn't seen or spoken to Elijah after he came to see me at Christmas and refused to return, telling him I had way too much work to do and he believed me so he came down to visit me and we spent Christmas here in the apartment he had given me. Luca had gone to italy to visit his family and I had told him Elijah was coming to visit so he'd agreed to stay away, but when he returned he demanded that I told him everything about Elijah, not wanting to make a scene I had, he was furious and he had promised me that he would get me out of this marriage if it was the last thing he'd do.
He had decided that we were to be a couple whilst we were in uni so no one questioned why I was spending time with him as he was the richest guy here he had more money than Elijah, but I didn't care. He was my friend, so I agreed. The Dean also knew of our arrangement but said nothing. I had a feeling he and Elijah weren't as close,as he had made it out or be. I'd also been put on a fashion and design course after I had shown him my designs.
I was quite happy with the way things were going. Elijah on the other hand wasn't too pleased with my choices I had made without his input and he didn't agree with my choice of a second course but he had no say on it as the Dean had put me forward for it anyway. Now I was sitting in the restaurant with Luca fratranisng over my future.
I sat nervously and had to figure a way out of this marriage and get divorced before Elijah made me lose everything.
"Are you okay princess?"
"I'm scared Luca."
He pulled me into a hug. "There's no need to be scared you have me."
"But Elijah."
"I'm Mafia, princess I can get anything and that piece of s**t won't ever stop me."
"But he will try and stop you from hiring me."
"I already hired you, princess."
"He told me if I ever tried to divorce him he'd make sure I'd never get a job."
"But you have one."
"And I can easily lose it because of him."
He placed his hand in my chin lifting it. "He can't do s**t princess. I am the mafia and I own you now he will soon find that out."
He leaned forward pressing his lips on mine kissing me passionately with tongue.
He moved away. "Now no more thinking what he thinks he is capable of when I am capable of so much more. He won't know what's hit him princess."
Why did I ever agree to starting a relationship with this guy he's worse than Elijah?
~
I've been in university for two years now and I must say I've been having the time of my life I've made a lot of friends during this time one in particular Luca he's been with me through the entire events that have been unravelling up to this point though he finished Uni last summer he always makes time for me and has promised me a better job once I finish Uni this summer but I fear that will never happen as planned because as soon as Elijah finds the letter that I have sent him about the divorce I will be all alone and I will have no friends, no one to turn to, no one I can truly trust and more importantly no job to go to.
Once Elijah realises that I have not been bluffing for the past four years he will have my head in a vice and make sure everyone everywhere not to employ me because I broke out contract and that alone will have people talking and employees will not want to hire someone who can't comply with terms of a contract.
But Luca being Luca reassures me that won't ever happen and whatever Elijah tried to use against me he won't win and he will hire me no matter regardless. I just don't seem to believe any of his words cause in the end Elijah will twist all his bullshit words and Luca will believe all of them and in the end he will turn against me too.
I know who he is and it no longer scares me like it used to; he is the kindest and sweetest man I have ever met. But, can I trust him to stand by his word and not back down from Elijah's lies?
No I can't.
