Kapitel 156: Book 4 : Chapter 5

Luca's POV

"Okay so quite obviously you don't want to get on the bad side of these people," I said a day later as we sat across from each other at a freeway diner somewhere in Texas on our way to Miami. "Hopefully they will just see you as my sidekick or whatever but if they start to show a little too much interest like Guillermo did, you've gotta learn to play the game."

"I don't even know what the game is," Ella replied taking a big slurp of some strange brightly coloured iced drink.

"Don't tell them you have a mate. Play along with their messed-up, twisted flirting but don't let them get too close. If they think they have a chance of getting somewhere with you they won't force it and you have the control," I explained.

"So you want me to flirt with them? Tease them? Kinda like playing hard to get?" She questioned with a grimace.

I laughed at her expression and nodded.
