An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Eighty-Seven: Not Tonight
Rae was determined to make it work tonight. She had been worried about why he had refused to sleep with her but she wasn’t going to wait for him to make the first move anymore, she was done waiting. As soon as they got home, she quickly changed into red lingerie. “How did you get those?” Lucas asked, his eyes wide as he stared at her. “I had help from my friends,” Rae replied, as she walked up slowly to him. “You’ve been running for so long, not tonight, Lucas.” She started to grind against him and he held her close and tight. She didn't know if it was the alcohol she had taken at the local eatery but for some reason, she felt safe and wild with him. Her body was performing fireworks and she knew she wanted a piece of him. She turned to face him and he looked at her and he pulled her in for a kiss. One that lasted passionately for about a minute. He pulled back. "Come on, Rae. Come with me." Rae nodded weakly and held his hand tightly as he guided them to the bed where s
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Eighty-Nine: Soft Moans
Lucas opened his eyes to a flurry of mixed emotions. The sex last night had blown him out of the waters, it was beyond what he had imagined in all ramifications and it made him giddy with excitement. Despite the numerous times he had sex with her in his head and with his eyes, it had gone beyond his expectations when they finally had sex for the first time. The sex was addicting, he rounds himself wanting more—wanting here, even at this moment. He was struggling to control himself and the urge raging inside of him. Rae was still his daughter-in-law, despite everything that was going on between them and the lie he had told her which had led to all of these happening. Even though Gunner wasn’t showing the slightest sign of affection towards her and he had no intention of making her his wife, she was still engaged to him. Lucas was thinking of shutting down the engagement between Gunner and Rae. He knew that Gunner wouldn’t mind even if he did, he would be relieved and he woul
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Ninety: Surge of Electricity
The rest of the morning had gone quite well and Lucas spent the rest of the day trying to get ready for his journey to the city tomorrow. He had been putting it off for so long that it was finally time to sort it out and go back to his life. He had been here for what? Nearly two weeks? It was more than a proper vacation for him and Rae as well. He was fortunate to get everything set up and ready for his departure tomorrow. Luckily for him, there was a truck coming to the village tomorrow to take a shipment of fish down to the city, Joe had told him that he could join the truck by the time they were set to head back to the city. Lucas had often wondered what the state of his estate would be at this point. Would they have considered him dead and moved on with their lives or are they still carrying on the search for him, determined to find him by any means necessary? There was only one way he would be able to find out and that was by heading home as soon as possible. The next m
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Ninety-One: A Couple Thousand Dollars
After several hours of being stuck at the back of a truck with several boxes of fish, Lucas eventually got to the city. He couldn’t remember when he had ever been in a situation that required him to use public transportation and he hated every minute that he had spent in the truck. He had been forced to share a metal bench with several others which meant that they were sitting next to each other with no space between them. Lucas felt like he was suffocating and how he had managed to survive the entire journey had been a miracle. During the journey down to the city, all he could smell was fish and he knew that the smell was on him already after being in the truck for hours. Fortunately, the truck driver had been kind enough to show him where he could bathe and take the smell off him before he ventured into the city. Lucas swore not to ever put himself in such a situation before. He didn’t know how he would get home but if it required him to rent a whole truck for himself, he w
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Ninety-Two: Twisted Fantasy
Lucas was struggling to make sense of the current situation. She looked and at the same time, she was pissed. He had left her here in good spirits and if anything had happened, it did when he had been away. This was the first time he had seen her show any sign of anger in the past two weeks and he was worried. “Did something happen, Rae?” Lucas asked again, his tone was calm, somewhat cajoling her to speak to him about what could’ve possibly gone wrong. Lucas waited for several minutes but Rae remained silent and motionless. The only thing she did was glare at him with sadness in her eyes. Lucas let out a sigh as he walked towards her. “You can talk to me, Rae, and I’ll fix whatever is wrong.” Lucas tried to reassure them as he stretched out his hand to hold but she instantly scurried away, creating enough distance between them much to his surprise. She was repulsed by the sight of him, he could figure that out now but he didn’t know why. To the best of his knowledge, he h
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Ninety-Three: Fueled Anger
Rae’s POV I had planned everything I wanted to say to Lucas when I regained my memory. I had drafted a long speech that I had dedicated just for him to show him how inhumane and selfish he was. I wanted him to feel the pain that I felt, I wanted him to know that he shouldn’t have played me for a fool for nearly two weeks for his amusement. My first instinct had been to tell everyone about what he had done. I wanted him to suffer, I wanted him to feel the pain that I left deep in my chest that it was difficult for me to breathe properly at certain moments. I spent the whole day envisioning how to punish him and make him suffer so that I couldn’t bring myself to sleep. I knew he was going to tell me about how they were here because the villagers thought that they were a couple and it made me rethink my revenge plan. I didn’t know if he was bluffing or telling me another lie so I racked my head and tried to piece the whole puzzle together. The women in the village could hardly
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Ninety-Four: Not Yet Dead
Rae’s POV Lucas and I stood on the shores with the villagers, talking and exchanging goodbyes with everyone. The whole village had come out to say goodbye and I felt pleased. As soon as we heard the blast of a ship from the waters, the villagers knew it was time to leave and they scurried away quickly. They hated being seen by outsiders so I understood why they did that. I was left with Lucas standing next to me as I stared straight ahead, eagerly waiting for the ship to dock so I could put considerable distance between myself and Lucas. It had been difficult standing next to him and acting like we were so in love while we were exchanging our goodbyes with the villagers. He had tried on several occasions to touch me or hold me by my waist, but each time, I expertly maneuvered my way away from his touch. He had yet to understand that I was now repulsed by him and everything that had to do with him. There was no way in hell I was going to let him use me like he had done du
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Ninety-five: All For The Best
“This is one of the best news I’ve ever received in my life, father.” Gunner gushed as he quickly downed a glass of whiskey. “I can’t categorically pinpoint what it is but I know something about Rae has changed,” Gunner added. “This wasn’t the Rae I used to know about two weeks ago.” Lucas remained silent as he swirled the contents in his cup absentmindedly. He hadn’t been able to sleep properly last night, thoughts of Rae, his betrayal, and what she had wanted to speak to him and Gunner about kept him up for most of the night. His first thought was that she wanted to tell Gunner about what transpired between them but he had quickly discarded that notion. Rae was anything but gullible and he knew she wouldn’t want to do that. When she had said she wanted to marry Gunner as fast as she could, Lucas didn’t know what to make of it. He couldn’t remember the last time he had been stunned to silence but Rae had brought that upon him with what she had requested. “Have you been li
