Chapter 2 °THE HANDSOME CRIMINAL

"Why are the police after you?". She asked him like she didn't even hear what he said.

The handsome injured man looked at her with disbelief in his eyes.

Isn't she meant to be shaking by now?

"A-and why would I help you?" She continued.

He sighed and repeated what he said earlier. "You really are a talkative"

"You said that before"

"Are you dumb or you just want to act like you don't see the gun with me?"

"That must be a fake gun". She pointed her head to the gun he was holding,she just had that hunch that it was a fake.

He chuckled although it affected him,he has never met someone as dumb as she is. "You are a nurse,you wouldn't want me dead when you could have done something about the bleeding,yes?"

"But you're a criminal"

"Who said so?"

"Why are the p-"

He let out a painful groan and about falling when zephyr ran to him. "Let me see" She sounded worried. She looked at his wound as he removed his hand with a groan.

"It's a knife wound and it looks like the person used a rusted one,it's infected. If you don't go into the emergency room now you will die"

He was going to laugh,a loud one as of that but he couldn't,the injury was letting him hold it in.

Did he look like a dumb person or perhaps a five years old?

He looked at her bag which was lieing on the wall beside the elevator, pushed himself off the wall he leaned on and walked towards the bag.

When zephyr saw where his eyes was focused on she quickly ran to take her bag but was too late,he held into her. "Give me the pain killers"

Her eyes widened "How the fuck did you know there's painkillers in my bag?"

He smirked, "I have my ways tesoro ,now hand it to me before I lose my patience"

And shoot me with you fake gun? She thought as she rolled her eyes.

"Something's got into your eyes?" He asked her.

She dipped her hand into her bag and in a second brought out the pain killers. "How many am I to take?" He asked her.

"Six" she answered without hesitating.

He smirked at her answer and took it from her. He poured two on his not-bloody hand and used it.

"You knew the right amount so why did you ask me?"

He didn't answer but that didn't stop her from asking questions, "How do you plan on escaping?"

He raised his brow, "you want me to escape? How about I take you with me?"

"And be an accomplice? No thank you,we didn't meet" She raised her bag to her shoulder. "Ciao"

Before she turned her back at him,he gave her a hug with his right hand rubbing her back in the process.

She was confused and was about clicking on the button of the elevator when she caught his reflection smirking. What's amusing now?

She didn't know until she looked at the obvious stain on the side of her scrub and realised what he did.

"You sneaky son of a -" As she turned back she didn't find anyone again,he must have gone to the rooftop.

No way in hell was he getting away with smearing her scrub with his blood.

She ran after him to the rooftop just to see him enter a helicopter. "Wanna come with me now?" He shouted because of the chapping of the helicopter.

"You son of a bitch!" She was angry just by looking at his face now.

He turned to the man who was beside him in the helicopter and said something to him,before she knew what was happening he had gotten down from the helicopter and swooped her up on his shoulder. She let out a loud shriek when he did.

After dropping her in the helicopter,she turned to the injured man. "Where do you think you sick fuckers are taking me to?!"

"To the 'son of a bitch's' house". He answered with a smirk she so wanted to wipe off with a punch.

She looked out the helicopter thinking of how she could escape before they started flying.

"Unless you want to be taken into court as a suspect I suggest you sit your ass down"

He was right. What exactly would she tell the people in the hospital when they find blood all over her scrub and she is a foreigner,it won't end well.

Now there was no evidence of her being there except...

"Shit shit shit"

He almost rolled his eyes. "What now"

"My bag"

"I'll take care of that"

"Take care of it? How? Oh my God, I'm gonna be an accomplice to a criminal"

"Damn woman,can you shut up?". The other man who carried her earlier who was now sitting beside her spoke.

She inhaled "I wa-"

"If you speak again,I'm going to throw you off this helicopter" The bleeding man finally spoke. He's a criminal so he could possibly do it so she shut her mouth up and the rest of the journey was filled with only the chapping sound of the wings of the helicopter.

📍Moretti's Estate📍

"Damnnnnn". Zephyr stressed out when she saw the size of his Estate from up. "Are you the fucking president of Italy?"

"Trust me baby, the president doesn't have this much" he said with pride.

"Baby?" She raised her brow.

"Yeah?" He answered like she referred to him as what she asked.

"That was a good one"

They finally landed.

"Uh I need to go,I don't want to lose my job" She got down too.

"Not even a thank you?" He looked at her.

She scoffed "You should be the one thanking me"

He chuckled.

As he walked out of the helicopter some maids were already waiting for him.

He finally replied her when one of the maids handed him a white towel " Keep up that attitude and you won't leave this estate" His voice changed like he was mad.

Just the way he said it made her actually shiver a little.

She saw him talk to one of the men guarding the entrance of the building, "Portala in Una delle stanze,prendice un nuovo scrub e endirizzala a casa mia" before he disappeared from her line of sight. *Take her to one of the rooms,get her a new scrub and direct her to my place*

"Si don" The guard said as he bowed his head. *Yes,don*

If she didn't see him with a gun before she would have thought he was the son of a powerful politician or a prince.

The guard who was given an order walked up to her ,told her to follow him and she did. He took her to a room and after a few minutes he came back with a new ironed scrub. "When you're done changing,I'm outside". He struggled with his English but he was getting there.

As she sat on the soft bed,she changed her mind. Maybe a one hour nap will do,she was just too damn tired. The softness of the bed was tempting as fuck! But she knew the risk of lieing on the bed and closing her eyes for just a second.

So she rose up and a changed to her new scrub not before taking a quick shower.

She went out to meet the guard. "Follow me"

As she followed him she couldn't help but stare at the beautiful surroundings. They had gotten to a garden and a large building was just right in front,the building was the largest in the estate.

She would worship his ground if he would let her on what business he was into.

She looked at the guard in front of her,he didn't look as rough as the other ones she's been seeing so she walked beside him and asked him "Uhh what work is your boss into?"

The guard was suprised at first but answered. "He has a lot of companies" That's all he said.

They walked up the stairs after getting into the house. "He wants to see you". They stopped in front of a door which was at the far end of the hall that had at least 10 doors.

"Uh okay"

She opened the door to see two men,one was sitting on the sofa with his arm spread while on his phone and the other one who looked familiar was checking himself in the mirror.

She cleared her throat to gain their attention.

The man in front of the mirror faced her then she realised it was the criminal but Fuck,was he hot.
