Captive Chapter 40

" Shit ! i swear if i had just fucken killed that mutt i wouldn't be this irritated now " Antonio Cursed as he punched the man in front of him as Archer watched him . " You should have though it before hmm ?" One of Archer's men spoke and Antonio sighs . " Sir , i have already half killed him , should i just shoot him already ? my hands are starting to get tired , and this fucker .." he said kicking him and that poor man spits out more blood , " ..is simply not dying " Archer craned his neck and stood up adjusting his shirt . " Leave him be " he said and walked out . People fear Archer and his family because of their history . His father was a Mafia man , although Archer wasn't known to be in Mafia , he still did pretty bad jobs . His mother was a women know for her keen knowledge . She was one of them , very proud as well . Archer's family ran an organisation , not good but dangerous . Archer wasn't the man of word but he certainly was loved by his women . Everyone in his work knew never to call his love by her name or go as far as to talk to her . Not that it would happen . " Archer !! Please . pretty please with sugar on top " Arabelle jumped on his chest kissing his cheeks multiple times to gain his approval but he only ignored her . " Archer ...its only for today . I will make you my special cake " she tired and he huffed flipping her over and resting his face in her chest . Arabelle bit her lip the sudden tingles in her body ." Please " she pouts making him pull her cheeks . " Can we ?" she asked and he rolled his eyes . " I want them gone early in the morning " he said and she nodded . " You can call Antonio and you other friend " she said . " Sky and Dean know them don't they " she said and he chuckled ." Yes love " he said kissing her lip . " Thank you Archie " she smiled . Archer smiled kissing her forehead . " Have you bought the game ? are we playing !!??" Arabelle asked . Dean nodded laughing and drinking his beer . " Do you wanna try any Arabelle ?" Caro asked . before Arabelle could speak Archer stopped His belle from taking the can . " No drinking for you " he said and she huffed drinking her fruit soda . " meanie " she said . ' Oh i will show how mean i can be in the bed My Belle 'Archer though . They drank and played games some movies all when Lucy trying to talk to Archer . " Do you play ?"Lucy asked and Archer replied with a no . Lucy sat far away from him but they were the only ones sitting on the couch as Arabelle sat near his leg playing with determination . " So what are you studying ?" Lucy asked again and Archer clenched his jaw now very irritated with her questions . Arabelle would never irritate him , even if she pulled his cheeks or made fun of him . He loved her , but Lucy had him angry within seconds . Antonio smirked and kept his hand on Archer's shouder . " Lets chat " He said and walked in the kitchen . " No thankyou for saving ? Sir " he asked and Archer grabbed a beer and drank it . " Lucy seems interested in you " Antonio spoke . " I would kill her for talking to me if it wasn't for Arabelle " Archer said walking out . As the clock passed 1 everyone now was half drunk and Arabelle half asleep. Lucy smiled thinking she could ask Archer more untill her Picked Arabelle up and walked towards a room . " Do you need help in cleaning up Archer ?" Caroline heard it but she stayed quite . " No need , the house keeping will do it themselves " Antonio replied . Lucy nodded but very disappointed in the fact that Archer hardly spoke more than four words that evening . The next morning Arabelle found herself in Archer's shirt naked underneath . She was tucked in his chest wrapped up in his warm fuzzy blanket . " Morning belle " he said . " You are wake ? others .. " , " Gone home "he said . She raised her eyebrows and gave a look at the clock to see it was twelve in the noon . " I woke up this late !? " she asked herself sitting up but Archer couldn't help move his eyes to her breasts and her legs . His white shirt was much off see through . He smirked pulling on the shirt making her looking at him . Arabelle suddenly shivered . " its cold " she said and blushed as she noticed herself in a white shirt with her nipples now erect . She immediately covered them making Archer growl . " Belle " he warned . She bit her lip and snuggled into his chest more. " I am naked " she whispered and he chuckled, " I know " he replied . Arabelle noticed a red mark on her chest and she pulled the sheets away only to find many red marks on he thigh . " Did ..Archer !!" she softly yelled hitting him . " You tasted delicious last night , not to mention your moans even when you deep asleep " He spoke near her ear making her clench her thighs . " Archer " she wined . " Why " she asked as he pulled her close again and chuckled . " My sweet belle " Arabelle leaned in to kiss his cheek and jaw . " Have you seen my phone Archer ?" Arabelle asked . " Its in my drawer , why ?" he asked " I need to call mom , i miss her " she said . Archer didn't hate her parents but he though they were better off away from her . They feared him , hence they would try prying there daughter away from him . And he will not let it happen . He did let her call and talk to them , but she never knew they might stay away for a while longer . Lucy searched for Archer's instagram or facebook but found no account . Yes she found many in that name but none of his . But when she asked a friend she heard he never had an account . Asking people about Archer only made people warn her to stay away from him . 'He is a dangerous man , he would beat men in his school days , never hesitate in threatening his teachers . 'He was the reason of the fire in ware house ' they said . By now Lucy knew he was dangerous , But she wanted to know more about him, only way was Arabelle . " hey Arabelle . wanna grab a drink after class ? your free period right ?" Lucy asked , " But don't you have a class ?" she asked ." I want to skip , i have nothing to do " she said wining and Arabelle laughed . " I know a place , come on " she said . They sat in a cafe and Arabelle got a Parfait while Lucy got a coffee . " So how long have you know Archer for ?" Lucy started off . " Oh , i met him in my high school years , he was a senior ." She said and Lucy replied . " So you got together ?" she asked and Arabelle blushed . " he always told me I was his close friend until he kissed me . " Lucy smiled halfheartedly . " He seems very quite " she added . " Oh ya , he can be a bit quite when around people , he doesn't like it you see . " , Before Lucy could ask something Arabelle's phone rang . "Excuse me" she said and picked it up . Lucy couldn't see who called her but she knew soon enough " I am at a cafe , no i am with Lucy , no no i am sorry !! yes fine . Bye Bye " She goodbye seemed sad as she huffed keeping her phone away . " I am sorry , Caroline called saying our class will start soon . We should go now " Lucy nodded and they walked to their respective classes . " Thanks for inviting me on a drink Lucy , we should do it others again " Arabelle stated and walked off . Lucy only snickered and rolled her eyes . 'Petty little thing '. She thought of Arabelle
