PART 3 - CHAPTER 145 JESS
"Luke," | whispered, my heart racing.
Leaning against that black Jeep, he exuded a sultry confidence that was impossible to ignore. He uncrossed his
arms, sliding his hands into his pockets in a way that made his fitted black V-
neck hug his body just right, givinga tantalizing glimpse of the muscles underneath. There was something
dangerously. attractive about him-the way his jaw was clenched, like a storm brewing just beneath the surface,

Every instinct screamed a red flag, warningto stay away, yet all | could think was how my body was
betraying me, wanting to step closer, to feel the heat radiating off him, despite every rational thought shouting
atto turn back.
But what unsettledmost wasn't how he looked at me.
It was how he was looking at Aiden.
In a blink, Luke closed the distance between them. His fist shot out, grabbing Aiden by the front of his shirt and
yanking him forward with a force that made my
breath hitch. "What the fuck do you think you're doing!?" Luke growled, his voice low and dangerous, vibrating
with barely restrained fury.
I moved to step between them, but neither budged an inch. It was like trying to shift two immovable walls.
Aiden didn't flinch. In fact, he smiled at Luke, his calm

demeanor only infuriating him more. They were the sheight, but that's where the similarities ended. Aiden
was lean, all wiry muscle from hours of running, but Luke..... Luke was a powerhouse. Built for contact, for the
kind of sport that left bruises and broken bones. "Woa, man," Aiden said, his tone casual despite the fist still
gripping his shirt. "Nothing happened. | walked Jess back to the dorm, that's it."
Luke's smirk was cold, his eyes dark, "Fucking convenient for you, isn't it?" he sneered. "Jess, not remembering
me. But letmake something clear-" his voice dropped, "that doesn't mean you stand a fucking chance. Got
it? I'm still here."

at him, my fingers trembled against the solid muscle beneath, | said softly, trying to calm him down. "He just
walkedback. That's it."
Luke didn't move for a moment, his eyes still blazing with anger as he glared over my head at Aiden. But slowly,
the rage ebbed away, replaced by something else-something raw and
conflicted. His gaze dropped to me, and with a reluctant sigh, he let go of Aiden's shirt, stepping back.
| turned to look at Aiden, who was fixing his shirt, clearly unfazed by the whole thing. He glanced up at me, his
expression hardening. "You should get a leash for your pet," he bit out before turning on his heel and walking
away, leaving Luke andin the middle of the emp Luke's voice broke the silence, "I know you need space,

"I'm okay. | really am," | said softly, "but I'm sorry, I still don't remember anything yet."
| glanced up, expecting to see disappointment flash across his face. But there was none. Instead, Luke just
stared at me, his expression unreadable but calm. His gaze
softened as his hand reached up to brush a stray strand of hair away from my face, the light touch sending a
shiver down my spine.
"| just miss you," he whispered, his voice almost breaking. His thumb hovered near my cheek, and | could see
the hesitation in his eyes. "Can I? Is this okay?"
I nodded, the weight of his touch grounding me, makingfeel more present than | had in days. "Yes," |
whispered, my voice barely audible, as the warmth of his hand on my skin set off a chain reaction in my body.
