Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 3366

Luca got out of bed and opened the door.

The moment she saw the man standing there, she smiled. “Didn’t Gerald tell you not to casually open my door?”

The man smiled back. After glancing around, he replied, “Do you really think I’m the same as them?”

The man's appearance did not resemble Luke, but his voice was unmistakably his.

Luke had disguised himself using the skills of a top-tier makeup artist, assuming the identity of a man who was supposed to arrive for a shift rotation of the organization. The original owner of the face was now securely detained by Gale.

Worried he might be seen lingering outside, Luca quickly stepped aside, opening the door wider to let him in.

As soon as he entered, she shut the door, locked it, and drew the curtains before rushing to embrace him tightly. “What are you doing here?”

“I finished my work and came straight over.” Luke held her just as tightly. It was as though he wanted to merge her into his very being.

Luca playfully teased, “This was what you meant by ‘two days’?”

“I couldn’t leave you here alone. I was worried.” Luke gently planted a kiss on her forehead, telling her how worried he was. “So as soon as I wrapped up, I came straight here. I can only feel at ease when I'm by your side.”

“Aren’t you walking into the lion’s den?” Luca gently pinched his cheek. It felt incredibly real.

The disguise was flawless. Even if someone touched his face, they would not notice it was a mask.

Luke took her hand in his, pressing a gentle kiss to the back of it. “I don’t mind. As long as I’m with you, I’ll walk into any lion’s den without fear.”

“You always take risks with your safety. You know Abel has been targeting you all along, and yet you still came here.” Luca let out a playful yet helpless sigh. Her heart was slightly heavy with unease.

If she had known Luke planned to disguise himself and come to her side, she would have done everything to stop him.

However, now that he was here, there was no turning back.

Sending him away and bringing the original man back was not an option, right?

Hence, they were now a team—a husband and wife walking into danger together…

“I couldn’t stand leaving you here alone. Besides...” Luke heaved a sigh. “You’ve endured so much because of me. I can't let you face this alone anymore. If anything happens, I need to be here, by your side. Together, we can face anything.”

“Yes, as long as we’re together,” Luca murmured softly. She decided not to dwell on the fact that he had disguised himself to sneak in.

No matter what happened, they would deal with it as it came. Besides, with Abel not currently in X City, the people here could not do much to Luke.

She allowed herself to relax, if only a little.

“Have you eaten?” asked Luca.

“I have. Your cooking is as amazing as ever, though it’s wasted on those guys,” replied Luke. Luca did not originally need to prepare meals for them. However, considering Luke’s picky taste, she decided to make food for him and, while she was at it, prepared some for the others as well.

Otherwise, those people would not have deserved to eat her food.

“Then, will you rest with me for a while?” Luca gestured to the small bed beside them. “It’s only a twin bed, but we’ve shared a smaller one before. It shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

“Not at all.” Luke scooped her up and settled onto the bed with her. The tight space pressed them close together, and they shared their warmth in the small room.

Holding her like this was something Luke had been longing for, even in the busiest days of his work.

“Get some sleep. I’ll keep watch.” Luke knew Luca often felt insecure, and in an environment like this, she must not have been sleeping well the past few days.

Luca closed her eyes, nestled in Luke’s arms, and drifted into a deep, peaceful sleep. It was the most restful nap she had taken in days.
