Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3027

”Okay.” That was all Luke said before he held her even tighter in his arm.

Luca was awake now, and she opened her eyes a little. Her vision had adapted to the darkness, so she pressed her face against his chest and asked, “What did Nina say?”

“When she was waiting for me downstairs, she asked me if you had another identity.” Luke gently caressed Luca’s back, and shivers went down her spine as his touch got increasingly sensual.

Luca was half-asleep, so she did not notice the changes in Luke’s movements. Instead, she frowned and said, “I’ll tell her next time. The fewer the people who know about me, the better.”

“Sure,” Luke said absent-mindedly.

Luca finally realized what he was doing, so she turned to the side and said, “It’s late.”

“We have to hurry, then,” said Luke. Although he would be disrupting her sleep, his desires made it impossible for him to just sleep next to her like a gentleman.

As he said that, he leaned forward as things got heated up.

…

The next day, Luca was exhausted when she got out of bed. She bit her lip at the thought of Luke tiring her out last night even though he said that he would control himself.

It was like he was making up for the night Rainie had slept in their bed…

Thoughts of last night made Luca’s face go red. After touching her face, she stood up and felt the soreness from her waist all the way to her limbs.

Luca frowned as she stretched by the bed. After loosening up her muscles, she washed up and put on her work attire before walking out the door.

As she expected, Luke was working in the opposite room.

Then, their eyes met as if they had just read each other’s minds.

Although he had given up on sleep last night, he was still in high spirits today. Then, he smiled. “Good morning.”

“Good morning.” Once again, Luca was reminded of what happened the night before.

It had happened many times before, but she would still blush every time she thought about it.

Looking at her shy face, Luke instantly knew what she was thinking about. He asked on purpose, “Did you have a good night’s sleep?”

Her face turned red immediately.

He was doing it on purpose!

How could she have had a good night’s sleep when that happened?

“I’ll head downstairs for breakfast.” Luca ignored his question.

Luke smiled. “Okay. Come back earlier today. I’ve promised Grandpa we’ll have dinner at the manor.”

“Dinner?” Luca stopped in her tracks and recalled her promise before saying, “Right, I remember now. But Nina’s here. Should we bring her along?”

“I’m afraid it’s not a good idea to bring Nina to the manor,” Luke said tactfully.

Luca nodded and understood what he meant, but she still felt bad about leaving Nina here alone.

“Aunt Neile is here, so Nina will still have someone to take care of her. Karen won't show her face here even if I'm not at home,” Luke said.

If Nina had known Luca’s identity, it would not be a problem for her to tag along.

However, Nina was still oblivious to Luca’s true identity, so it would be inconvenient for Old Master Crawford if he had to be extra cautious with his words.

Luca nodded in agreement with what Luke said. It really was not a good idea, so she had no choice but to leave Nina behind.
