Chapter 3413 To Ensure Her Safety

When she opened her eyes again, the sky outside had already darkened slightly.

Luca mumbled, feeling the warmth beside her. She instinctively curled closer. "What time is it?"

"It's a little past five." Luke gently rubbed her back, offering a quiet comfort to help her feel at ease.

Since he could not be there beside her, he could only make these small gestures to bring her some peace of mind.

"An entire afternoon just passed like that..." Luca was reluctant to leave at the moment. Her slender fingers lightly pressed against his chest.

Luke took her hand in his, bringing it to his lips for a soft kiss, holding it as if it were something precious and tenderly stroking it.

Luca's hands had once been delicate and smooth, but during their time in the small villa, they had become much rougher.

"You've got calluses." Luke felt sorry for her.

Luca gently traced her finger over his lips, leaning in to plant a soft kiss on him. "It's just from the needlework and the experiments I've been doing. It's nothing. They'll heal after a while."

She did not tell him that besides the experiments, she had also been working out. The calluses were from the training.

Luke examined the calluses on her hands carefully. While he did not know exactly what she did during her experiments, he could tell from the spots where the calluses had formed.

Luca wanted to grow stronger, so she would not hold them back during their missions. His woman was always thinking about him and their safety.

Luke pulled her close, buried his face in her hair, and let out a sigh. "I really don't want you to leave."

"I don't want to go back either." Luca hugged him tightly.

They stayed like that, wrapped in each other's arms, until it was almost 6:00 am. Then, they headed downstairs.

By then, Gordon and Gale were already sitting in the living room.

When they saw Luke and Luca come down, Gordon could not help but whistle. "Well, well, look who it is."

Luke shot him a fierce glare.
