More Than Lust novel Chapter 22

Grace's pov

My heart started racing when that moment flashed in front of me. I gulped looking at his evil eyes.

"Little birdy..."

He Smirked. what does he want from me?

I tried to walk pass by but he blocked my way in the corridor. My heart drop in my stomach, there is no one except me and him. He can do anything and no one is there to save me.

"Listen"

He stepped towards me but i wasn't in condition to listen, i panicked.

My breathing quickened and eyes watered.

"What's happening to you?"

He asked frowning at me.

"L_Let me g_go"

I stuttered.

"Look"

He pointed his finger at me and I flinched back. He halted in his place. His eyes looked at me weirdly and finally he stepped out of my way.

I grabbed the opportunity and started running away from him. But my legs froze in place when his father suddenly came in front of me.

These people will give me heartattack today. He looks more dangerous than Alexander.

He looked at me angrily and started shaking. It looks like he is ready to kill me.

"mettiti da parte papà altrimenti sviene" (step aside dad otherwise she will faint)

Alexander scoffed.

I don't know what he told to his dad but he looked at me disappointed.

"cosa ha visto in questo coniglio spaventato" (what did he see in this scared bunny)

He shook his head and stepped aside.

Are they playing with me, why would they let me go?

"ogni ragazza non è come la tua tigre" (all girls are not like your tigress)

He chuckled.

I ignored their laugh and ran outside. My eyes roamed in the hall desperately to look for chief. He is not saint either but at this moment only he can save me from his family.

I finally spotted him at the counter, talking to someone. I quickly rushed towards him and clutched on his arm. I have never been so relieved to meet him.

I know right now i look like a child who got lost in the market and finally found her parents but i can't help it. I was so scared.

I felt his large arm wrapping around my waist. He pulled me closer like he is trying to assure me, it really feels like it. May be i am hallucinating.

"What happened?"

He asked me with frown.

"Your brother___he___"

I gulped when Alexander came in the view.

Chief mumbled something in Italian and rubbed his forehead. What is he saying?

I looked at him confused when he handed me glass filled with some liquid.

"Drink"

He ordered.

I looked at him hesitantly but he looks mad to try him now. I started drinking and slowly started to relax, I don't know what is this but it's helping me to calm down. I stood beside him because I don't want another encounter with his problematic family.

"Isn't she too young for you?"

The man with whom chief was talking said while eyeing me.

"Eyes on me Simon"

Chief glared at him.

The man named Simon raised his hand in surrender and walked away.

Chief took the glass from my hand and placed it on the counter. He grabbed my hand and dragged me outside. For the last time i glanced at his family and all four of them were looking at us.

His brother and father had annoyed look and Anamika was looking worried. Is she worried about me?

Chief made me stand beside the car as he got a phone call. He is few feet away from me. Does it matter, anyway i can't understand Italian.

"Are you okay?... People inside are very dangerous. I was worried for you. I am glad you are fine."
