Chapter 10: Mine and Mine Only

Luke's POV

I watch peacefully Maria as she rests her head on my bare chest.

God, I can't get over how beautiful she is.

I stroked her dark brown, soft hair as she drifted off into an awaited sleep.

I will protect her at all costs, and if any man even dare think about her, I will claw his eyes out with his own fingernails.

And with that, I fall asleep.

Maria's POV

The next morning...

I wake up and sit up straight up in bed, my body immediately tensing with sheer panic and regret.

As soon as I even move myself to get off of the bed, there's abrupt pain to my lower region as I do so. I look over beside me and see Luke laying there, asleep.

We're both naked. What have I done..

I scramble out of bed and quickly pull on my black lingerie and a hoodie, then scurry down to the kitchen.

Without a second of a doubt and my mind still racing from what I just witnessed, I begin to prepare some breakfast in a haste. Whatever I can do to focus myself on something else.

How could I lose my virginity to him.... how could I be so, so stupid!

"Ugh!" I scream out and chuck the spatula across the room. I turn the stove off then sit down on the ground burying my head in my hands. "H-he doesn't even love me... You let him get exactly what he wanted," I cry running my hands through my hair.

Tears start to run down my face as I cry out in agony.

"Maria?" I hear someone say. I look up and see Luke standing at the door just in his sweatpants. He walks over to me, "what's wrong?" He asks and sits down beside me.

"Nothing, nothing... I'm just tremendously stupid." I try to explain trying, wiping my tears away but they just keep coming.

He turns to me and cups my face in his hand. He wipes away my tears, "tell me..." he says calmly.

I sigh, "you- you don't even love me, do you?" I sniff.

He sighs, too. "But I do." He says straight to me.

"What? You do?" I ask shocked. "Yes, I do. Because you are the most amazing woman I have ever met and don't compare to Bethany or anyone else. You are Maria not some hook up for my pleasure," He says meaningfully and in the most whole-hearted way possible..

I stand up, "a-and you aren't just saying that, right?"

He stands up too, "no, I'm not."

With that, he grabs me by the waist and kisses me. I grasp on to his neck, pulling him closer to me from the sudden gesture.

He swiftly picks me up and places me on the counter and continues kissing me.

"Let me just show you how much I love you.." he says pulling off my panties.

A few hours later...

It's around 6pm and Luke has decided to take me out to a nice dinner.

I put on a short black dress that had a very low cut, making my breasts nearly pop out in response, but I don't care. This little thing is making me feel sexy.

I come out of the bathroom where Luke's putting on his tie and buttoning his shirt over.

"You like?" I ask spinning around presenting myself to him.

He smiles. "Do you want me to fuck you again, hm?" He asks playfully,

I roll my eyes, "no... I want to go to go dinner..."

"Then change out of that damn thing." He responds going over to a shopping bag.

He gives me the shopping bag and I go and get changed once again.

This time the dress has lace sleeves and black tights. This dress is double- nearly triple the fabric the last one had.

I walk out of the bathroom and Luke smiles but I frown. "You're still very beautiful, Maria. I just don't want men staring at what's mine." He says snaking his arm around my waist.

I roll my eyes once again and then we leave the penthouse.

_____________

When we get to the restaurant we are seated in a private room that is very fancy. It has a beautiful chandelier, marble floors and a table for two that has a silk table cloth over it.

Luke pulls my chair out for me and then goes to sit down. The waitress gives us our menus then leaves.

I look over the menu and see that everything is ridiculously expensive. "Luke... are you sure I can order anything?" I ask unsure.

He smiles and scoots his chair over to mine. "Anything darling." He tells me and looks over his menu again then puts it down.

He sees I'm still having trouble with what to order so he leans in, resting his hand on my thigh. "Hmm, why not this?" He says pointing with his one hand and his other moves closer to the top of my tights.

His hand enters my tights then into my underwear and he stays there waiting for my reaction.

My breath hitches and I nod then set down my menu, but he doesn't stop.

He starts to insert a finger into me and I gasp.

"Luke..." I moan as he moves in and out. Right then the waitress comes back in, but Luke doesn't stop.

"You two ready to order?" She asks getting her pen out. "Yes, I'll have a steak medium well with a side of Cesar salad." He says and gives his menu to her.

"Umm I-I'll have the.." I struggle to say it so Luke does.

"She'll have the same." He says handing her my menu.

The waitress leaves and Luke exits leaving me in disappointment.

For the rest of the night, we ate our dinner then went back to the penthouse.

Now we are back at the penthouse in the bathtub, together.

I lay up against his chest and relax in the warm soothing water as he wraps his hands around my waist.

"I just wanna stay here with you forever..." I say placing my hands on his and nuzzle my head into his neck.

He rests his head on mine, "me too." He says and gently kisses the top of my head.

I close my eyes for moment of rest, but the moment soon turns into a complete slumber.

I feel Luke get out of the tub behind me, then a few moments later I feel myself being lifted out of the tub then being placed into bed under the covers.

Luke got into bed beside me and wrapped his arms around me. "You are mine Maria, don't you ever forget that." He whispered into my ear before I completely fell asleep in his arms.
