The Kidnapped Bride

"Agh… you.  bitch!" 

Olivia put the knife against the man's arms where the knife was already inside his flesh..he immediately stepped back when he felt the pain that rose to his entire body and mind.

Subconsciously, Olivia coughed hard when she got up from the dining table and took a breath. Her entire body was hard, covered with sweat and shivering but her doorbell never stopped.

"I'm coming!" Without any idea who could be there at this time, she imagined the guard coming to her rescue after hearing her yells.

Glancing at the man who held his arm which had the knife and trying to take it off, she knew that this was the time to make the run on the door and open it.

Without delaying it anymore, Olivia rushed towards the main door where she opened the wide door in hurriedness.

"Help-" 

Her words were cut short when she saw the back of the certain man, with his hands tucked inside his pocket. Turing and what came in her view was Lucas!

"Oh, Hey! I'm sorry I came to your house this late.." Lucas replied yet his demure and voice gave a different vibe.

When Olivia's heartbeat stopped beating anymore. Rather it suffered at her sight of his face where she felt horror-struck her, 'What the hell is he doing here!?'

He would be the last world she would like to meet at this point just when she is under attack by the man. She was on the verge of getting killed since someone does know about her in entanglement against Lucas.

"H-Hey! What are you doing this late? Don't you have work to do tomorrow morning?" Olivia tried to be open but deep down she was feeling bubbles already.

Why does she feel as if this was the most unfavorable confrontations she would ever undergo? 

But instead of answering, Lucas asked another question too. "Won't you even call me inside? Hmm?"

"S..sure! Just being things messy so I was trying too.. you know.. get things here and there.."

She shifted herself to the other side here. The first thing she saw while rotating herself was to see the man in her living hall vanish.

There was literally no one anymore, except the current mess of broken glasses and the few fruits on the ground.

"No worries. I just came here to have some  talks and.. fun." Lucas tried to find the entire house messy, making the frown curve on his face. "Don't you like things to be organized?"

"Yeah.. I do.." Olivia answered when she closed the door behind her, with one wish: The killer left.

"Then why is your.. entire house looking so messed up? That too in this time of the night when  you should be rather sleeping in your room?" Lucas threw another question at her which almost made Olivia ready to kill herself. 

Her hand came into the one who had rubbed them together. "That was because the butler was on.. the leave and the window were left open. So, my neighbor's cat came.. in my house.."

Somehow, Olivia managed to utter those words, but her grip on her clothes was already tight. The nervousness that crawled under her skin has the power to skin her alive!

"Hmm.. looks like the cat did really bad with your stuff. The glass is broken.. the fruits are on the ground." Lucas's tone was making her suspicious. 'Does he know 2hat happened just now?'

She wasn't sure yet his questionnaire was doubtful since he is never interested in these types of questions!

But managing to keep her bright smile, she also went back, "Indeed. I fought with them.. regarding this issue. From now onwards, I will keep my windows closed properly. "

Lucas seemingly needed his head with her words, "You should. Otherwise, costly things might also get damaged.." With this, Olivia was ready to lead him towards her drawing-room but he halted in the middle.

The black eyes of his starred in her direction, looking at her face with the fierce gaze ever she saw. "W-What.. happened to you?"

Lack of response from his side made Olivia gulp the saliva present in her mouth. His eyes never tore from hers, making her take a few steps back in fear.

"Lucas…"

"Let's go to your room." 

His order was direct, leaving no space for negotiation. But at the same time, it made her heartbeat as fast as that of a racing car. Why was he telling her to go back to her room!? What is there!?

'First.. he appeared at this hour and second.. my room. God.. please save me from any chaos or revelation.' That would be the last thing she is looking forward to.

In the end, she nodded her head and they made their way to the upstairs when Lucas entered first. Following him, her fingers were crossed, in the hope that everything was fine in the room..

'..and that stranger hopefully has left..'

With this current thought, Olivia and Lucas stepped inside to find the entire room, a bit messy yet it was enough for Lucas to not notice any abnormalities.

Closing her door behind, Olivia stepped inside to stare at Lucas's face to see him distant. Yet what she came across were feelings that were kind of new for her as well. "Lucas.."

"Olivia, don't ask." That was all that he said when he turned around to bring himself near her while lifting her chin to look into his eyes. Under the dim light, she managed to stay still and stare into his gaze.

'He inherited such gorgeous eyes…' she can't help but think but at the same time, her mind was getting glimpses of what happened earlier.

Without any further action, he brought his lips near her to give a small peak. Subconsciously, Olivia too brought her hands near his neck to depend on the kiss.

But to her dismay, this never happened.

"I..I.. can't do this right now…" Lucas muttered beneath his breath making Olivia frown instantly, 'what happened to this guy? He behaves strangely…'
