Symbol of Our Love?

Third person's POV

“Arrghh!!” Celine cried as her blood started to boil, she marched up and down, savagely scattering her hair. Before turning to face Tina, who was already trembling in fear, she threw everything in her way. 

She had thought that her plans would work, but they dreadfully failed. She put her butt on the couch and muttered, "I thought you committed to give it your best to subjugate him. 

“Yes, ma'am. Though I did try.”

“He didn't fall for my seduction. I think he's been faithful to yo..”

Celine cut her off. “Your efforts are not enough, young lady! How were you going to stop your seductive and alluring body from hypnotizing him? He ought to be having sex with you by now.” She yelled.

Tina trembled and winced even more when she heard her tremulous but adamant voice. 

“I'm sorry, Mrs. Windsor. I'll try to do my best next time.” She swiftly bowed down and pleaded. 

All of the allegations that Tina was a child bearer were unfounded. The poor lady worked as a staff member at Addams' Mansion, the residence of Celine's parents. 

She took the choice to embrace her glorified skin because she thought it may replace her by giving birth to her husband's child and make her whole. 

She simply imagined that after seeing such a lovely curvaceous body, Lucas would be drawn to her and tempted to have a stand with her. 

She was compelled to acknowledge that Tina, the maid, was more endowed and sexy than she was.

She feels a wave of coldness and envy, but her heart shines when she understands the woman is poor and unable to compete with someone who is affluent and well-known.

She gazed at the woman while her hands trembled in lust, envy, and jealousy. She commanded, “Go to your damn room.”

Tina rushed to the stairs as if that was the only word she was looking forward to. 

She dropped to the ground, stopped, and moaned in pain as soon as Celine's words reached her ears. 

“If you can't complete the task by tomorrow night, consider yourself gone.” The corner of her mouth twitched as she grinned.

Tina's body shook more and more. She was aware of her boss's daughter's potential. She understood her capabilities and limitations. “Yes, Mrs. Windsor,”  Her throat produced saliva, which she then swallowed immediately. 

She ran to her room, panting, thinking of all the ways she could seduce Lucas, Celine's husband.

“Dammmnn!!!” As she got off the couch, Celine cursed. The vase on the center table is reached by her hands, who then crush it to the floor. 

The maids gasped at the piercing sound from the vase, and Celine's dark and dangerous gaze met theirs.

They fled from her sight in an instant, scurrying for their lives. Unless they want to be dealt with, nobody would want to stomp on her shoe. 

A wicked sneer appeared on Celine's face as she flushed in rage. She picked up the phone and began to make a call. 

Never did it ring twice before connecting with the other end. “Mission not accomplished, He failed to do it!” She then disconnected the telephone.

“Lucas, you can't thwart my plans!” She walked back to the garden while snarling.

The following day¶

The room is filled with the early morning sun. Behind the windows, tiny birds were singing beautifully.

She asked, “Are you sure you don't want this?” The bedroom reverberated with Celine's words as she laid her body on the duvet-covered bed. 

She turned to face the recognizable figure emerging from the restroom. It was Lucas, who was completely covered in water from head to toe. 

Lucas had returned to the home inconsolably, and gave it some thought to give the requested five years, in order to pursue her career. 

With that he had tapped his wife from her deep slumber and talked and settled the matter amicably. 

So with that, Celine was tempted to ask him again this morning, if not he had been in a drunk state yesterday night. 

In order to keep the sun's rays from penetrating, Lucas marched over to the window and pulled the drapes shut.

The room's brightness was changed, and he likes it this way. “We've decided not to bring up this subject again, so please don't.”

Her face slowly began to smile. “Really!” She found it inconceivable that her spouse would allow her a few years to further her profession. 

“Yeah! I'm willing to give up the years for you, but after that, we're going to have a baby,” he said while grinning at her.

However, it was clear by his actions that he wasn't pleased with the choice but Celine doesn't care about that. 

 “Lucas, I can't believe you could give me an extra 5 to 10 years to accomplish my objectives. This is really important to me.”

“Ten years!” said Lucas, furrowing his brow.

“Celine, are you kidding me? Ten f****** years?” He stood in front of the bed where she was sitting, raised his deep voice, and pulled her against the wall. 

“Celine, are you trying to hurt my feelings? You don't think I'll wait ten years,” he bellowed.

“You need to see your face right now,” Celine exclaimed in a fit of laughter. “I'm just playing and feeling excited.”

She chuckled once again, which infuriated Lucas. 

Lucas dressed in his shirt and tee. “Celine, that shouldn't be a play. Stop thinking that; you believe I'll wait for ten years.” He declared.

"What is your mind Lucas? I should tease you a bit" Celine thought. 

“So you can't wait ten years without having a child,” Celine scoffed as she made her way to the bed. She was sitting on the bed, staring at Lucas as he buttoned his shirt. 

“Why would I wait for you when there are countless women in the world willing to fulfill my wish and become the father of my child?”

Lucas's statement left Celine in a state of shock. She was incensed and her face flushed because she couldn't believe what she had heard. “Lucas, what blather are you spitting out of your mouth?”

“You won't be able to give me ten years for my career.” She added. 

As he turned to face her and giggled uncontrollably, Lucas fastened his belt around his waist. 

He grinned and pulled his long tie off the bed, saying, "You think I'll wait after wasting five to ten of my best years." 

“Celine, you must be joking.” he scoffed. 

"It's stupid to wait ten years for your career," She was astounded as she caught eyes with Lucas. 

"Without the sign, our Love is worthless. Children ought to represent our affection.

“I don't think there's any need to love you any longer if you can't bore me a kid, unless you're sterile.”

“If not, are you?” He questioned. 

"What?!" 

“Yes Celine, if not.  Why are you stopping us from having the symbol of our Love?”
