Chapter 144
Luca’s POV
I picked up the syrup bottle and poured some over the rest of the waffles on her te, I didn’t miss the
way an expression hade over her face as soon as I had started to pour the syrup over the waffles,
and I had probably ended up pouring way more that was necessary, all because I still wanted to stare
at the brightened up expression on her face for a moment more. She didn’t seem to mind that I had
ended up pouring the amount of syrup that I had poured and so I sat back in my seat after returning the
bottle of syrup where I had picked it up from.
She started to eat once again and after eating three more bites, dark colored syrup was staining the
lower part of her lip, as well as the side of her lips, and I had to force my eyes away from her face as
soon as she swiped her tongue out to lick up those stains, cleaning them up properly and neatly.
My mind quickly went to a bunch of other things which she could clean up nearly with her tongue and I
buried my face into my hand as I resisted the urge to do something really stupid in that particr
moment, seeing as a lot of bad ideas had choose that particr moment to fly over my face.
One of those images that had flew over my mind at that moment, had been to have her between my
thighs, with her kneeling down on the floor, while licking her fingers which had gotten smeared with my
cum after she was done jerking me off in my head, and I felt my dick pulse in my pants in a really
unexpected way.
My, my, my… I waspletely fucked, I thought to myself as I took in a deep breath and puffed it out
slowly, in order to try calming myself down, along with the provocative thoughts filling up my head at
that moment, and the feeling of my semi hard dick pressing into the top of my pants.
It seems like I was really down bad, which was really bad for Sofia at this point.
Ah shit, I really needed to getid.
I thought to myself as i slowly turned my head back around until I was staring at Sofia who was clearing
off her te at the moment. Her eyshes were almost fanning her cheeks and her dark and soft hair
was brushing against her cheeks every next second.
“Stop staring at me,” I heard her light voice murmured in a really soft way, and I heard her words

clearly, even though she didn’t stare up at me as she spoked, since she had all her attention focused
on the te of food before her.
I chuckled a little as I leaned a little towards her side of the table before murmuring out a low ‘huh’?.
She finally nced up at me and although there was a little bit of color there, my eyes had immediately
gone to her lips which looked really rosy and almost swollen at the moment, in the way I’d leave her
lips after kissing her breathlessly and senseless… only that mine was most definitely going to leave a
little bit of swollenness behind.
“Stop staring at me too much,” She rephrased and I blinked at her confusingly, wondering what it was
that had suddenlye over her to take that intense shyness away from her and leave behind this…?
Because this sure as hell wasn’t the Sofia whom I had met after making my way into the sitting room,
as well as the person whom I had started to share dinner with, some time ago.
I couldn’t help the small grin that pulled at the side of my lips at that moment, and I found myself
leaning more into her side of the table as I murmured in a low voice. “Why?”
“Er, because it''s… rude?” She finally replied and as soon as my small grin immediately spread out into
a full grin as soon as her reply hade forth, I watched as her cheeks pinked up instantly. Of course
her reply just had toe forth in a questioning tone, the same one she had started using to converse
with me when I had met her in the sitting room.
I shook my head a little before reaching forward and grasping at her chin, and I used my grip on her
jaw to lead her face sideways until she was staring up at me, right before I started to speak.
“I’d try to not stare anymore, alright?”
“I… um alright, it’s cool?”
I grinned a little as I nodded my head while murmuring. “Yeah, it is cool. Although, no promises.”
And then I loosened my hold on her chin and watched as she turned her head around to stare down at
her almost empty te which she regarded for about a moment, before she reached out and pushed
on it a little until it wasn’t sitting directly in her front anymore. She stretched her hand out a little and
picked up her still filled up ss of orange juice, and she took a little sip of it immediately.
“Orange juice, huh.” I murmured after about a minute and I watched as she turned her head around to
stare at me, with her ss of juice still clutched between her hands, an unreadable expression in her
eyes.
She nodded her head once before lifting the ss up towards her lips and swallowing down a little bit
of the drink.
“I’m guessing you like apple juice over orange juice?” She finally asked with the side of her head
craned to the side a little and I stared at her for a few more seconds before shaking my head and
starting to reply.
“Actually no, I prefer orange juice to apple juice.” I replied and watched as she ced her ss of juice
on the table before sitting back up and starting to speak.
“Finally, someone who admitted to liking orange juice to apple juice.” She mumbled and I breathed out
a smallugh as I questioned, “What was that?”
“Um, no. It’s nothing, it’s just that, so many people always im to be more in love with Apple juice
than orange juice, when in reality, it’s theplete opposite.” She started to speak almost immediately
and I tried not to make it obvious that I was almost drowning in her voice as I listened to her speak.
She didn’t always speak fully like this, and I already kind of associated stuttering with her in my head,
but then here she was, speaking without any kind of hitch in her words, and I was almost thrown aback,
because it was almost rare to listen to her speak like this.
“But then, what if they aren’t lying and are genuinely more into apple juice?” I questioned immediately
after she had finished speaking, not because I was suddenly interested in juices, but because I wanted
to listen to her speak this way more and I didn’t want it to end yet, coupled with the fact that I loved how
her face currently had this facial expression on which I had never gotten a chance to see before.
“Uh, well because, the orange juice is always the first to run out supermarkets, but still, people still
always im to love apple juice way more than orange juice, and it’s obvious they’re all telling a lie.”
It looked like pure determination, like she was speaking her mind and was sure of what she was saying
at this very moment.
“Hm, that’s their own business, don’t you think? All that should matter to you should be that you aren’t
obviously lying about your preferences like those unknown people.” I said to her and watched as she
stared absent mindedly at her drink for a few seconds before finally giving a few nods of her drink.
“Do you want a drink?”
I lifted up my gaze from my fingers which I had started to stare at, to focus it on Sofia almost
immediately.
She was offering me her drink.
Why?
I didn’t realize I had said thatst word out loud until she had stared up at me shockingly for a few
moments, and then she was back to stuttering in the next moment.
“I meant, uh, because you said you liked orange juice and um, uh… and you obviously didn’t take any
kind of drink with your meal tonight, and so I had uh, I had thought it was a good, uh idea? That it was
a good idea to offer you from it? And uh, ah never mind.” Her cheeks were burning by the time she was
done and I breathed out a gust of endearingughter as I leaned forward and stretched my hand out.
“I’d have a drink from it, thank you.” I murmured to her when she blinked at me confusingly at first.
“Uh, ah… you don’t have to?”
“I want to. You did offer, didn''t you?”
“Yes, I did.” She whispered.
“Then, I’ll have some of it.”
And my finger brushed against hers as she pushed the ss into my palm, and I didn’t miss the tiny
shiver that ran up her spine at that same moment.
Self control, Luca.
Self control.
Lord, give me a lot of those.
