The charm of Mr. De Luca

Beautiful Shadow

“Mr D’Angelo? What are you doing here?” Mia immediately took another broccoli and grabbed the handle of the trolley. He turned around to avoid the man, while Adriano hurried behind him. He did not care even though Mia ignored him and considered him as if he did not exist. “Why do you follow me? Shouldn't you be home?” mia protested without looking. His eyes were still on the things he needed. The hand with the taut fingers was so deft to take all the vegetables and fruits, and he put them in the basket.

Mia then intends to take one of the canned foods on the top shelf. The woman stood on her tiptoes and tried to grab it. However, Adriano's hand again first get the canned food and get it for Mia. He then handed the item to her.

Mia was forced to accept the canned food. However, he rushed to avoid Adriano who was looking at him with a loving look. The man really made Mia feel uncomfortable. Adriano did not say much, but his body language showed how much he felt for Mia. The blue-eyed man returned to accompany and occasionally lined up Mia's steps. “Do you have no other job, Mr D’Angelo? My shopping event this time became no fun at all,” protest Mia again. This time he chose some shrimp.

“You like seafood, Mia?” Adriano did not comment on the protests of the beautiful women who are currently avoiding him again. Mia also ignored the man's question. It just passed.

“You really have the heart. I brought your brother back. Is that how to thank a hero?” adriano said quietly with a little guyonan. His words indeed managed to make Mia stop her steps, then turn her head while she took a slow breath. The brown-eyed woman smiled. A very forced smile. However, without saying anything, again Mia chose to leave Adriano soon. He rushed to the cashier to pay for all his groceries.

Mia took out all the things she bought from the basket. A young girl who served as a cashier started counting the totals of the items to completion. He also mentioned the amount of money Mia had to pay. However, while Mia took the money from the wallet, Adriano had first offered her credit card. He calmly did that. While Mia can only protest what the man is doing through her eye gesture. However, Adriano did not care about it, even when they got out of the supermarket and walked to the elevator.

“Are you in no mood to bring a grocery bag while delivering me back to the top?” syndicate Mia.

“If you don't mind, Mia,” reply Adriano with her charming smile. “However, I'm sure Mr. de Luca will not like it,” Adriano said again.

“Yes, of course. Therefore, you better leave immediately. Don't let my husband know if we meet here. You know for yourself what Matteo looks like, and I don't want any trouble with him. After all, I'm sure you won't be willing to wait for me to count the groceries you just paid,” Mia said at length. I don't know why, because he looked so calm in front of Adriano. Of course, Mia's attitude that makes Adriano feel happy. He stepped up and stood right in front of Mia.

“Are you no longer afraid of me, Mia? I'm glad you don't feel that way, because I'll continue to be haunted by guilt when I see you're scared of me,” Adriano half-whispered. The man's voice sounded so heavy and deep. It was clearly a look full of regret on his handsome face.

“Already, Mr. D’Angelo,” Mia is slowly digesting. “Please don't reveal the incident again. Every time, I try so hard to forget. I hope you do too,” he said.

“If I could, I would soon forget it. But ...”

“Conscious, Sir! You are in love with a married woman!” cut off Mia in a high tone of voice before Adriano could finish her sentence.

“Fall in love?” repeat Adriano chuckling. “Then, falling in love was the thing I avoided the most. That feeling just makes you weak. However, the first time I saw you ...” Adriano was forced to pause his words because at that time his heartbeat became irregular, to make the man's chest feel tight.

“Surely if I could control my feelings, I wouldn't want to fall in love with someone I obviously wouldn't be able to reach. Loving and being heartbroken at the same time is painful,” Adriano said.

“However, Cupid's arrow seems to be darting at the wrong heart,” he added while laughing. The laughter stopped as Mia looked at him sharply without a smile.

“May you soon find true love, Sir,” Mia said in the end, after a moment of silence. He also left Adriano who was fixated without saying goodbye. That slender body disappeared behind those passing by.

Adriano exhaled slowly while closing his eyes. He tried to neutralize his feelings in a few seconds, until he finally decided to reach for a cell phone and call someone.

Moments later, someone across the street answered her call. “Don,” greet someone.

“Marino, provide for me your VVIP girl, I will slide to your place right now,” Adriano said flatly.

Without waiting for long, Adriano immediately turned to leave Hypermart located in the luxury apartment complex. He drove his luxury sports car to Ostia, one of the famous tourist areas in Rome.

Adriano stopped his car in the front yard of a luxury resort. There was already waiting for a black and long haired man. The man spread his arms to greet Adriano. “Don, welcome. It's been a long time you didn't come here,” welcome him warm.

“Of course it is, Don,” the man named Marino was laughing widely. “Can I take you to your room?” bargained for.

“Not necessary. Just give me the key to the room and show me the direction, ” Adriano said.

“Alright, Don,” Marino handed me the silver-colored key. The shape is quite unique and classic in the sophisticated era like now.

“Log door manual?” Adriano raised one of his eyebrows.

“Welcome to Ostia, Don,” kelakar Marino while awake. Adriano responded with a slow murmur.

“You can walk straight through the inn building, restaurant and turn left afterwards. There is one special pavilion that I have prepared for you there,” explained Marino.

Adriano remembered the clue carefully. He then walked according to Marino's direction, until finally Adriano arrived in front of a pavilion building which was quite luxurious. A very beautiful woman wearing a bikini with such a beautiful body, was ready to welcome him.

“Welcome, Don,” greet the woman seductively. Adriano nodded without a smile.

The woman opened the pavilion door, graciously reaching Adriano's hand and leading him in. “What's your name?” adriano asked, watching the woman for a moment.

“Laura, Don,” replied the woman was flirtatious. He then sat Adriano on the couch, and began performing an eroge dance in front of the man. However, Adriano's reaction did not match the woman's expectations. Highlight Adriano's eyes even seemed sad and laughed. It was obvious that the blue-eyed man had no regard for Laura's temptations at all. His mind floated out of nowhere.

“Don,” call the woman carefully. “Am I less attractive to you?” laura's tone sounded disappointed.

Adriano who had daydreamed, regained his senses and forced to smile at the beautiful woman. “I'm sorry, Laura. I think I changed my mind. I want to be alone here, but I will still pay three times your rate,” said Adriano.

Laura's pair of eyes immediately sparkled brightly, replacing the disappointment that had ambushed her. “Thank you, Don!” yells.

“Name your account number, I'll transfer it soon,” Adriano get ready with phone in hand. After Laura gave the account number, Adriano immediately did what she had promised. A moment later, he told the bikini-clad woman to come out, while he sat alone in the pavilion.

Adriano sat down half-bending his stoic body. He covered his face with both palms. At that time, Mia's beautiful face came back, making her complain slowly while restoring her hair back.
