Chapter 16

• *Bruno*
• The time I spent with Lucia last night felt like a dream. I had craved her and rushed home. When I pulled her in for a kiss, I expected her to refuse. I knew she would push me off, but I half expected her to give in, and slowly, she drifted lost. A slight grin adorned my lips. I toss the lighter in my hand, opening and closing it. I had just finished walking around the bar. I kept turning around on the chair in front of my desk.
• I wanted to spend time with Lucia.
