Page 14 of Worth the Risk

“So beautiful, bella. So fucking beautiful,” he murmurs as he leans away from me slightly, watching me. “Wanna watch you come. Wanna see you break apart for me, Pix.”

I can feel the orgasm building. I’m so close. Closest I’ve ever been with a man. And as I’m right there, just as I’m about to fall off the cliff … the doorbell rings.

“Hannah? You home? I made some cookies for you!” Good ole cockblocking Edith, my friendly bat-shit crazy neighbor.

I stiffen as my eyes meet Luca’s. I’m suddenly overcome with humiliation.

“Put me down,” I whisper as my eyes drop from his and I slide my legs down from his waist. He’s still holding me up so we are eye level. He’s a foot taller than me, and he’s not letting me down.

“No.”

“Luca, put me down.”

“Not until you say we continue this later.”

“That’s not a good idea and you know it,” I whisper. Edith knocks loudly on the door and rings the doorbell again.

“Bella, we’re continuing this,” Luca says.

“No.”

“Yes.”

“No!”

“Hannah, I can hear you. What’s going on? Are you okay?” Edith calls out. Fucking hell.

“I swear to God, baby, don’t let that cockblocker in here,” Luca hisses as he finally puts me down.

I glare at him as I throw open the door.

“Hi, Edith,” I say to her as she looks behind me and gasps.

“I told you to stay away from that heathen!” she yells.

“Hello to you too, Mrs. Willowby.”

“Oh don’t you sass me, young man,” Edith snaps, which makes Luca smile even wider.

“Seriously don’t antagonize her,” I tell him as he gives me an innocent smile. I bite my lip to keep from giggling, and his eyes lower to stare at my lips. He licks his, and Edith growls. Little ole Edith actually growls.

“Dearie, I told you. I warned you. You’re gonna regret getting involved with this bottom-dweller. It won’t end well for you,” Edith warns as she shoves a plate of cookies into my hands and stomps back to her apartment door. “Damn women and their inability to stay away from bad boys.”

As she slams her door after that last remark, I let out a laugh. Luca stalks toward me and begins to kiss me again. I’m about to wrap my arms around his neck and close the door when his cell phone rings. I giggle as the ringtone says, “Warning! Sister alert! Sister alert! Please use extreme caution!”

“It’s my sister Arianna,” he says as he answers the phone. “Hey sis …” He trails off as I can hear someone shouting on the other line and speaking incredibly quickly. “Woah, slow down! What happened?”

I turn to place the plate of cookies on the kitchen counter to give Luca a bit of privacy. I’m not sure how to respond in this situation. I’m not close with either of my siblings. Luca seems connected to his sister, which is incredibly foreign to me.

“Okay, I’ll be there in twenty minutes,” he says as he ends the call. Luca turns to me. “I have to go. My sister was in a car accident. I have to get to the hospital.”

“Oh, Luca, I’m so sorry. Was that her? Is she going to be okay?” I ask.

“Yeah, that was her. She’s the youngest and she’s pretty dramatic, so I really don’t know if it’s as bad as she’s making it out to be. But she’s shaken up, so I gotta go,” he tells me as he walks toward the door.

“Okay. I hope she’s okay,” I tell him, and he stops walking. Turning quickly, he grabs me and picks me up again, kissing me breathless.

“This isn’t over, Pixie,” he mumbles against my lips. I sigh.
