Dark DesiresChapter 16

Luca drove in a different direction from where the manor was located. He decided it would be best if they didn’t know where he lived, so he drove to a hotel instead. Luca made sure to go to an area crowded with traffic, like the downtown area, and successfully lost the car behind him.

He had suspicions that the McAllisters weren’t the ones behind Ren’s presence in the forest. They were chasing after him, while Ren was running away, so Ren must have somehow escaped, only to end up injured and in the woods. In the end, only Ren knew the full story. 

 

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Along the way, Luca drove wildly, making Ren hold on to his seatbelt, for his own safety. However, he didn’t complain, and even started enjoying the ride a bit. Adrenaline rushed through Ren from the excitement from the car chase.

By the time they reached the hotel, they were both breathing hard despite only sitting for the past hour.

 

Luca parked the car, and they both entered the hotel. The lady at the front desk greeted them politely. Judging from their attire, they were probably affluent people.

“Do you have a reservation sirs?” She asked.

 

“No, we’d like to book a room for the night.”

She frowned.

 

“Sorry, but the only room we have available is the honeymoon suite.”

“Oh, that’s fine, we’ll take it.” Luca said, passing the man his card, so he could book the room. The man’s face was neutral as he filled in the information. 

 

“W-what do you mean ‘we’ll take it’! That- That room is for married couples.” Ren stuttered, embarrassed.

“Then where should we spend the night? It’s better to stay here and have less of a chance to be found.”

The lady heard what Luca said, and looked re-assessed the two.

W-were these two eloping? Could it be their families wanted to tear the two apart, but their love for each other was so strong that they ran away together? Damn it, why couldn’t they let this couple be. They were really good-looking too. The man with the silver hair was so doting towards the other one and the other youth looked so shy. Hopefully, their love prevails over all the ones who are trying to stop them!

“I wish you both good luck.” The lady said, looking at them with sympathy.

“Thank you?”

 

Luca was unsure why she had such a strange expression, but shrugged it off. She seemed sincere, at least. Ren also wondered how a normal seeming person suddenly started acting so weirdly. It was probably Luca’s fault.

Their room was rather luxurious. Rose petals covered the bed, their sweet scent mixing with the incense. Ambiguous lighting lit up the room, creating an atmosphere for a romantic night. Luca took out his phone and took a picture, sending it to Gilbert.

 

A few seconds later, Gilbert bombarded him with texts about who he was with. Luca just grinned and shut his phone off.  t2jDwV

 

Ren was in the bathroom, cleaning up after a long day. He combed his hair, which was sticking all over the place, before tying it up neatly.

When he came outside, he saw Luca was just wearing a bathrobe, and his suit was stripped on the floor. His body was outlined by the fine material, and his chest muscles were visible through the cloth. He was also thinner than Ren thought. CLlwXO

 

“W-why did you take your clothes off?!” Ren asked, blushing.

 

“I can’t sleep in a suit. It’s too uncomfortable.” Luca said, leisurely lying on the bed. He picked up one of the petals between his fingers and inhaled the scent. Very fragrant and sweet. The petal was rich and dark in color.  lvLcEb

 

But not nearly as dark as a certain one’s blush.

 

Luca chuckled.”Don’t tell me you’re feeling shy from just this? We’re both men. No need to feel nervous.” j7d0an

 

Ren wanted to yell at this guy. What, ‘don’t be nervous’?! They were staying in a honeymoon suite, Luca was just wearing a bathrobe, and even the atmosphere was amorous. Heck, this whole thing was suggestive, that even if Ren didn’t want to think about it, he couldn’t ignore it.

 

“I hate you.” Ren muttered. GIbRTl

 

“Well that’s a shame, because I rather like you.” Luca said, still smiling. 

 

Ren took a deep breath to calm himself. nIf bq

 

“Do we have to share a bed again?” He asked.

“Where else do you expect to sleep? The floor?” jXwkSr

 

Ren was tempted to nod.

 

“No, you’re still injured.” Luca refuted, knowing that Ren would say ‘yes’.  Rol4tx

 

“Then you . . . ?”

 

“Are you asking the person who paid for this room to sleep on the floor?” DVJT2m

 

This conversation felt like deja vu.

 

‘. . . Just for one more night.’ Ren comforted himself. kXwqj5

 

Ren crawled onto the wide bed next to Luca. He wanted to change his sweaty clothes too, but he was embarrassed to just wear a bathrobe, so he endured the urge. Why couldn’t this hotel have two rooms available? 

 

While Ren was inwardly complaining, Luca called room service service. A few minutes later, a knock came on the door. Ren ran to open it, before Luca could move. He knew Luca would dare to open the door just wearing a bathrobe. RMtmEj

 

Ren was surprised to see the person outside carrying a tall glass of milk.

“For you sir.” He said, handing it to Ren, and promptly leaving.  HjdCdK

 

Ren glanced at Luca. 

 

“To help you fall asleep.” Luca said, answering Ren’s unasked question. This was why it was so hard to stay mad at Luca. One minute he acted like a rogue, but the next he was the most thoughtful person. L6bAMZ

 

“You’re really good at taking care of your guests.” Ren said. He felt irritated when he thought of Luca acting like this with others, but dismissed it as just being annoyed with Luca.

 

“Really? It’s good to hear that. You’re my first.” Luca said. 0czdki

 

Ren was surprised.

 

“You’re not lying?” T6KocB

 

“When have I ever lied?”

 

Ren thought about it, and realized Luca really never lied to him. He even felt a bit happy hearing it. His desire for exclusivity was satisfied.  JRKGYW

 

He walked over and sat on the bed, drowsiness coming over him.

“Goodnight.” Luca said. NFUJym

 

“Goodnight.” Ren found himself repeating, before closing eyes.
