Luca’s POV
I leaned my head against the head rest of the car and dragged in a deep breath as the car started to pull away from its parked position, slowly pulling out and edging backwards for the car containing my bodyguards to take the lead first, before the one James and I were currently in, falling behind the first car almost immediately… and finally, the last car which belonged to James, that was currently being ridden by one of my guards, fell into lane behind the one I was currently in at the moment.
I sat up and leaned forward in my seat a little, signaling for the bodyguard who usually sat in the front of the car beside the driver and asked him to turn on the air conditioner to the highest before leaning back in my seat and dragging in another deep breath. The clouds were getting really, really darker and I knew even without checking the time out on my phone, that it was already some minutes after seven p.m in the evening.
I raised my hand up and ran it through my hair, amazed by the fact that I had successfully succeeded in not running my hands through my heir or tugging on the roots, throughout the whole of the time I had spent out of the house, after I had taken the sweet time to take care of my hair thoroughly.
I ran my fingers through the soft curls a few times, loving how the softness of my curls were feelimg silky against my fingertips, and how the soft tips of my curls were brushing against the back of my throat and the top of my face as well as cheeks.
I leaned into the head rest of the car once again and shifted in my seat, getting into a more comfortable position and stretching my legs out to the furthest it could go, reaching up and starting to tug on my tie in the next second. I loosened the offensive piece of material which was handing off my neck and left it hanging off my shoulders, throwing my head back against the head rest of the chair and dragging in another deep breath, feeling the air which was trapped in my lungs, vibrate and moved through the joints and corners in my lungs, before I started to exhale slowly, feelimg the breath trickle back out through my nose and slightly parted mouth at the same time.
I glanced sideways and settled my eyes on James who was currently sitting in a straight and seemingly stiff position. His elbows were currently on his thighs and his jaw was placed in his palms and he seemed to be deep in thoughts even though his eyes was currently wide open and he was staring straight ahead, into the driver’s seat, in a very intense way, and it looks could suddenly burn down something based on how intense a stare was, I was a hundred percent sure the driver’s seat, including the driver, would have been melted into molten liquid lava.
I glanced to my other side and stared out the window, taking in the whole scenery and how the clothes have gotten even darker compared to the last time I had looked out the window, which was like a few minutes ago. Cars zoomed fast past our car, and based by the speed we were also zooming past cars and buildings, I was sure we were also going at a really fast pace.
I moved a little in my seat and groaned a little in my throat, moving forward a little in order to stretch my back out a little, and in order to get a kink out of the muscles back there. After a few more minutes, I leaned back into my seat once again, staring into nothing and allowing my mind to start to wander around.
I leaned forward and clicked on the black button which was going to bring out the dark tinted glass that would demarcate the front and the car, giving us sitting at the back some much needed privacy. I didn’t ever doubt for a day that the driver and the bodyguard who usually sit in the front together, doesn’t immediately start to talk to themselves about something’s immediately the demarcation glass comes up between both sides of the car.
I leaned back into my seat and tried to relax myself the most I could do with this amount of little space I currently have, and with that, I started to slowly tap my feet against the floor of the car, feeling the way the lower part of the car was slightly vibrating a little.
I turned my head around and stared at James who was still in the current position which he had been in, for the past lines of long minutes which had past since the car pulled out of the streets where Ivan and his cousin’s house were located.
I lifted my hand and reached out to him, tapping him ever so lightly on the shoulder to avoid startling him, and he only blinked a couple of times before puffing out a deep breath, his chest expanding with the intake and exhale of breath which he immediately started to perform. He lifted his elbows off the top of his thighs and raised his right hand upwards, using his palm to swipe across his face and using two of his fingers to massage his eyes.
