The Hidden Princess At All-Boys Alpha Academy

Chapter 76
I lean forward, wanting to kiss him very much again, but suddenly his words
register fully. with me and I give a little squeak, sitting up straight.
“What?” Luca asks, suddenly concerned.
“Wait,” I say, looking at him askance as I let my knees fall on either side of his
waist, straddling him with my hands on his chest. “Precisely how slutty were you,
Luca Grant?”
He grins up at me, broad and happy. “What answer do you want, Ariel? The truth,
or the one that’s going to make you want to kiss me again?”
“The truth,” I growl, giving him a little smack on the chest.
“Do that again,” he murmurs, one hand slipping to my back and pressing me
forward a little bit, “I liked that.”
“Pay attention, boy,” I command, pointing a finger into his face, though I lean
forward a little more. “Now, spill.”
Luca shrugs, noncommittal, laying casually back on the magical dream bed and
letting his hands rest on my thighs. “I have not been a very chaste man, Ariel. If a
girl and I liked each other, and we wanted to, I didn’t hold back. Does that upset
you?”
1 tilt my head to the side for a second, balancing my jealousy with my common
sense. “Well, no,” I say, my words slow and measured. “But, how many girls were
there?”
“That I've kissed? Or that I've slept with? Because those are very different
numbers —"
My mouth falls open in shock as I stare at him, and he grins at me again, clearly
y amused. “You're very sweet,” he murmurs, his hands starting to rub distracting
circles on my thighs.
“Slept with, then,” I say, through my teeth, doing my best to not get distracted by
the way. his hands feel on my legs.
Luca's grin deepens. “Somewhere around fifty?” he says, giving another one of
those too- casual shrugs.
My jaw drops again, accompanied by a shocked huff of air.
“What?” he says, grinning at me, his hands pausing on my thighs and taking hold
there, like he'd stop me if I tried to run away. “Too many?”
“You hussy!” I gasp, raising my hand before I think about what I'm doing and
smacking him again on the chest.
Luca bursts out laughing at this as I raise my hand again.
“And around fifty!?” I raise my hand again, “like you can't even be bothered to
remember some of them!?” My hand falls, aiming for the same place, but before
it can connect Luca’s moving, sitting up as he grabs my wrist out of the air, his
movement shifting me back at little so that I'm sitting in his lap with his other
hand tight against the small of my back so I don't fall backwards.
“I'm your hussy now,” he murmurs, his voice honestly a little delighted at my
outrage. “just think of it as my...education, which I can now put to good use.” And
then, almost as if to prove his point, Luca uses the hand pressed to the small of
my back to press me tighter into his lap, grinding against me in a way that lets
me feel all of him. At the same time, he leans in and presses his lips to the soft
skin of my throat, just above my clavicle.
And in combination...
1 groan, my head falling back as I feel a heat bloom in my core. My eyes flutter
shut as Luca delivers a long, slow lick to my throat, and I find my hips moving on
their own, wanting to press tighter against the hard length of him now instead of
shying away from it.
“See?” he murmurs, his lips still against the skin of my neck. “It's not all so bad.”
“Luca,” I say, half moan and half sigh, as I raise my head and take his face in my
hands. Because as much as I definitely want to keep going, want to keep
experimenting, this is definitely a conversation we need to have.
“Hmm?” he hums, inviting my question.
“How...” I hesitate, not wanting to hurt his feelings, “how can you have slept with
fifty women?”
He grins, like it wasn't difficult at all, and I laugh a little, surprised to find myself
grinning
back at him.
“I'm serious, Luca!” I say, looping my arms around his neck and forcing myself to
pout a little, wanting him to be just a little more serious. “l mean...” I blush lightly,
because I know I'm going to sound naive but...well, I want to know. “You can’t
have loved them all. Did you love...any of them?”
“A few,” he says, his face falling into more serious lines as he tightens his arm
around my waist, pulling me close. “I've had serious relationships, Ariel. But the
majority of them...no, I didn't love them. But sex it's not always about love.”
“Then what's it about?” I ask, dead curious. Because I've never had anyone to
talk to about this sort of stuff. My mom made sure I know everything I need to
know about the mechanics of sex and babies, and I know that I could always go
to her to ask whatever I wanted.
But this sort of thing, the personal side of it? The sort of thing you talk to your
friends. about?
Well, my friends are just as naive as me.
Or at least I thought they were
until Jesse blew their cover. I scowl, a little, thinking about it, and Luca grins at
me, lifting a hand and brushing his thumb over my frowning lip like he loves the
shape of it.
“Sometimes,” he murmurs, “sex is just about two people who are attracted to
each other getting naked and doing really weird things to each other's bodies.”
I burst into laughter then, my head tilting back on my neck. Luca laughs with me,
I can feel his body vibrating against mine. “Luca!” I gasp. “That is the least
romantic thing I've ever heard!”

I take my face in my hands, leaning close so my lips brush his as I speak. “I do
like it, Luca,” I murmur. “I just...it's new.”
He nods, understanding. “Plus,” he says, considering, “you shouldn't lose your
virginity in a dream state.”
“Oh yeah?” I ask, my face bursting into a smile. “Then where should I lose it, the
dorm room of an all-boys war academy?”

I burst out laughing, tucking my head against his shoulder and shaking it. “Luca!”
I protest.
“I know,” he murmurs, laughing with me, holding me close and rocking me back
and forth just a little. “I'm just kidding, gorgeous.”
“Gorgeous,” I say, lifting my head and smiling down at him again. “1 like this new
nickname. Better than Shrimp.”
“Shrimp is for the rest of the world,” he sighs, grinning at me. “Gorgeous that’s
just for me and you.”
“Good,” I murmur, lowering my face to his again, wanting nothing more than to
kiss him and kiss him and kiss him for the rest of the night. “I like this — having a
secret with you.”
“First of many,” he murmurs, and then Luca turns me again, laying me flat out on
the mattress and proceeding to kiss me senseless for hours on end.
