Chapter 4 Wanting Her Back

Luca's POV

It had been two months since I had been back into this city that screamed familiarity. Everyone had only heard of Luca Airline & Transportation but they've never met its CEO-the successful CEO which is me.

The first thing I had looked for when I came back was Sabrina and I found out she was still married to that scumbag. Not that I didn't want her to be in a happy-ever-after marriage, but she was mine to begin with. He had taken her from me then and now I'm back, all prepared to take back what's mine.

As if fate were on my side, I found out she wasn't happy-Not in that marriage. Not in that prison.

Haynes Chadwick! That asshole! He treated her like a worthless person, like someone who deserved no respect, but for once-I'd thank him because he'd give me the perfect opening to take her back.

It had been just few hours after the latest Ventimiglia family scandal which had thrown the media into chaos and confusion. I had someone watch Sabrina as I knew she'd be vulnerable, trying to find a way out of her situation.

I could help her-in less than 24hours, but I wouldn't because I needed something to bargain with. It made me end up on the top floor of Haynes Chadwick's company as I was curious about Sabrina who I had watched go up there earlier.

Pinning her to the wall, fingers grazing her cheeks, memories crashed in-ones I had never for once tried to forget.

Those brown eyes of hers that always looked at me with nothing but sincerity and all the love in the world, now looked at me with what seems like fear and uncertainty.

"Don't you miss me??" I asked, hoping that maybe-maybe her words could be different from what I was thinking, different from the gesture her eyes were giving but I could see through her. She clearly didn't.

It made me want to go crazy, pour out everything I've always wanted to say to her, about how I almost went crazy losing her to one scumbag because I wasn't capable enough to protect her then, yell at her for not trusting me and shattering my heart into pieces so small I couldn't even pick the shards. But instead, my hands just trailed down to her lips, my lustful gaze lingering on them. It made me realize-I missed those lips.

She was Haynes Chadwick's wife at the moment but I didn't give a damn. I crashed my lips against hers, savouring both lips. I'd face the consequences of my actions later.

She kissed me back, our lips syncing in rhythm, and the kiss lasted for quite a while. I released her lips, holding her gaze. I expected her to yell, or worse-slap me across the face but she didn't. Maybe I was wrong about what those eyes were saying earlier. My hands caressed her face, our breaths fanning against each other. I wanted to say more. Tell her more about how I was feeling at the moment but something disrupted the moment-the clicking sound of a camera.

"Whoa" the word came after, making me realize that someone was watching us.

My face twitched to the back and there he was-Haynes Chadwick. He smirked, his phone in hand and his camera still pointed at us, the asshole had taken a picture. I clenched my jaws as Sabrina quickly pushed me away, straightening her dress.

"What a romantic scene this is. How great would it look when it reaches the media?" Haynes asked, still wearing his devilish smirk but that only sounded like a threat to me. He's got intention to create another scandal for Sabrina and this time, it would be involving me.

I could only watch him as he walked to Sabrina, his hands tucked in his pockets. I didn't know how worse their marriage was but I swear-I might kill Haynes if he touches her right in front of me.

He smirked, "I thought I had a faithful wife, turns out you were just being a green snake under the grass. You sure have some audacity. The divorce haven't even been finalized but here you are kissing a man right in my company" He gestured to the side. "Need to make out?? You can use my office"

Of all the words he said, my ears got stuck on one. They are getting a divorce.

Sabrina's gaze lingered on Haynes, she couldn't utter a word. The way she stared at him couldn't make me fathom what was going on in her head. She was probably feeling guilty about getting caught kissing a man by her husband.

Sabrina proved me wrong when she took a step closer to Haynes. Her gaze sending cold shivers down his spine.

"Why?? You can get back with your ex, why can't I get back with mine??" She asked and that left me shocked. I never expected it.

Haynes eyes widened as his gaze flicked between Sabrina and I.

"Your ex??" He asked. "That guy from then??" He added, as he ran his gaze over me in disdain.

"Yes, my ex-Luca McCorkindale!" Sabrina spat and his lips parted in disbelief.

"Plus, after making me sign the divorce papers, you think you have a say in my life anymore??" Sabrina added.

She already signed the papers and now she's done with him. It made me feel something in my stomach, the fact that I was getting closer to getting her back.

"I dare you to leak that picture, Haynes Chadwick" I said. With that, I took Sabrina's hand and opened the elevator but she jerked her hands away.

I knew it, "getting back with my ex" as she had said was just at the spur of the moment. She just needed something against Haynes.

Haynes cleared his throat and got into the elevator with us facing me almost immediately-If only he'd be silent.

"So?? So what?? What if you are Luca McCorkindale??" He scoffed and I didn't give a response. I just had my hands tucked in my pocket while I watch him rant.

Desperately craving for attention, he faced Sabrina.

"You really have no shame, do you?? And I assure you, this is just the beginning" he whispered. Sabrina's hands curled into fists. She was trapped-torn between Haynes and his threats.

The elevator doors opened and Sabrina was the first to walk out while I followed closely behind her although it was obvious she was trying to keep her distance.

"Let me drive you" I said, breaking the silence between us.

"Stay clear from me, Luca! I don't need you in my life!" The words came as a sharp knife piercing through my heart. I had always needed her in my life, by my side but to her-I'm nothing.
