My Bestie's Brother Takes My V-Card novel Chapter 6

Chapter 6

“Lauren, good for you!”

Rocco shook the security guards‘ hands off him with a look of displeasure.

“Don’t regret this,” he snapped and walked away without turning around.

The guests regained their senses only then and began whispering.

I wasn’t a person who would care what others thought about me, but I felt embarrassed and annoyed at that time.

Luciano noticed that. He put a ring on my finger with a serious look and then patted my hand, whispering, “No worries. I’ll take care of it.”

Thus, I calmed down and didn’t give it much thought.

The wedding went well without Rocco.

Afterward, Luciano and I were alone in our bedroom.

It was awkward.

“What happened today has been buried. No one will spread it.”

“Thank you.”

After a long while of silence, Luciano rubbed his nose and

said with embarrassment, “I’ll sleep in the second bedroom tonight.”

I looked at him in surprise, feeling grateful and guilty.

“Sorry. It’s my fault.”

I lowered my head and apologized to him in a low voice.

I was devastated when Rocco broke up with me.

Thus, I agreed to marry Luciano out of anger.

I knew I hadn’t thought it through, but I couldn’t back out already.

So I decided to move forward with Luciano.

But I couldn’t accept him in such a short time.

I felt sorry for him.

“And thank you.”

Luciano turned to me with a gentle look.

“Lauren, I know all that’s in your past.”

I stiffened. “Don’t you mind? I…”

He responded, “A little bit, to be honest.

“But my heart ached for you. I don’t think Rocco is good enough for you.

“I like you.”

I looked at him with a look of astonishment.

What did he say?

He liked me?

I thought we were married only for our families.

Luciano blushed under my gaze.

“Did you forget that we used to be close friends?”

I didn’t.

I was 8 and he was 12 when we first met.

His family just moved into the villa beside my family’s back then.

I liked him, only because he was good–looking.

I went to ask him to play with me. But he thought I was too childlike and refused.

Thus, I beat him out of anger.

The next day, when I asked him to play with me again, he flinched and agreed.

After that day, I’d go anywhere he went.

Our parents noticed how close we were, so they arranged our marriage jokingly.

But I’d been seeing Luciano as my brother.

I asked tentatively, “Did you begin to like me…back then?”

Luciano nodded and said, “Yes.

“When you beat me, I thought you had quite a character.”

I didn’t know what to say.

Getting no response, he sighed.

“So I’ve been following you.

“Our marriage means a lot to me.

“I love you, actually.

“But I know over the past few years, you…”

He looked at me with a serious look and continued, “Lauren, I can wait. But don’t keep me waiting, OK?”

I looked at him with mixed feelings.

I never expected him to love me.

When I fell out with my family because of Rocco and insisted on breaking up the engagement, Luciano only said “OK” with a calm face.

Thus, I thought he had no feelings for me.

But it turned out that I was wrong.

My mind was in turmoil. After some moments of nothing, I responded in a serious tone, “OK.”

His eyes lit up.

We locked eyes for a while. Then, he hugged me gently.
