An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Ninety-Six: Perfect At Keeping You At Bay
Present day“If this is your way of punishing me, Gunner. I want to tell you that—““Why would you think that way, father?” Gunner cut him short. “If there’s something you’ve yet to tell me, you can open up to me so we can have a civil conversation about this.” “How difficult is it for you to listen to me?” Lucas frowned. “I am your father and I won’t lead you astray.”“My father once told me I was now capable of making my own decisions, so do not expect me to accept everything you’ve said because you said it.” Lucas was struggling to keep the truth to himself but he didn’t want to ruin his chances with his son and force him into being a bigger rebel than he already was. “Before I give you my blessings, Gunner, you need to convince me why you want to marry her. Because if you think I’m going to accept that bullshit story you’ve just told me, you’re out of your mind and you’ve underestimated me.” “What do you want to know, Father?” Gunner asked, crossing his arms on his chest. “Ev
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Ninety-Seven: May The Best Man Win
Lucas was beyond pissed with himself and most especially with his son. He clenched and unclenched his fists several times as he tried to maintain his composure in order not to slam his fist into Gunner’s face. Gunner knew how much he hated being lied to and yet for months, he had consistently lied to his face, and like a gullible fool, Lucas had believed every word he had said without trying to figure out if his son had been lying or not and now, that decision was going to haunt him. “You lied to my face, Gunner.” Lucas was visibly shaking with anger. “For several months, you stood in front of me and you lied over and over again. Not for once, did you consider the impact your decision would have in the future and here we are, at a crossroads.” “I’m sorry, father. I just—“ Gunner began.
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Ninety-Eight: Played For A Fool
Rae’s POVI hated feeling like shit. I hated this feeling of despair that was hanging over my head like a noose and it was all because of Lucas and his twisted desires. He had played me for a fool for several weeks and even though they had been the best moments of my life, I couldn’t just turn a blind eye to the fact that he had lied to my face for such a long time when he had the opportunity to come clean to me several times but he didn’t. A small part of me wanted to know why he saw it fit to make me his plaything but a major part of me wanted nothing to do with him ever again. He had tried to explain to me several times but I didn’t want to hear any more of his lies. Nothing was stopping him spinning a new web of lies and trapping me in it but I wasn’t going to give him the satisfaction of that this time around. I heard a knock on my door and I hurriedly opened the door, hoping it would be the only friend I had in the pack but it was a maid. “Mr. Gunner—I’m sorry, your fiancé
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Ninety-Nine: More Pressing Matters
Rae’s POV The next morning, I came down for breakfast but both Lucas and Gunner were absent as I had been the previous night. The butler, Mr. Gerald informed me of Lucas’ apology for missing breakfast but I didn’t care. He was doing all he could to talk to me but I was going to keep on avoiding him until he took the hint and stopped. Gunner on the other hand had left me a note which I didn’t bother to read, there were going to be no feelings involved in our marriage and I didn’t seem to care about their movements a tad bit. I had more pressing matters to focus on like what to do concerning my rowdy feelings towards Lucas. I had decided that I was going to make my first move sometime after the wedding, I needed all the security and influence I could garner, and being Gunner’s wife would guarantee that. I finished with my meal and retreated to my room for the entirety of the day, only appearing for dinner and I spent most parts of the night in the dressing room, sharing
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter Hundred: A Penny For Thought
Lucas’ POV I knew I was breaking the rules and codes of conduct but I couldn’t help myself. I couldn’t count how many hours I’d spent going over what would happen in my head if the world ever found out that I was trying to poach my son’s fiancée right from under him. The disgrace and scandal it would bring upon my family would be catastrophic and I might not be able to come back from the shame and humiliation which was why I had to do everything to make sure I got Rae back before she went mainstream with Gunner. I’ve tried several times to speak with Rae but she’s rebuffed all my advances for the past week. I’ve sent several gifts and letters, trying to sway her mind and get her to give me just 10 minutes of her time but she’s turned down my request every time. It was unlike me but I was starting to lose my patience and rightfully so, Gunner was accelerating the marriage plans as fast as he could. He wasn’t willing to give me any space and I could respect that, I would do t

Rae’s POV“You’ve got to be kidding me, Rae.” Lyra’s eyes went wide with shock as she stared at me. “I wish I was but everything I’ve just said to you is the truth and nothing but the truth,” I answered. It was a lot to take it, I had to admit it myself. It had taken me a lot to open up to her but I realized that I couldn’t keep this bottled up any longer and Lyra was the closest person to me aside from my mother.“I wish I hadn’t spent the weekend over at my boyfriend’s, I would’ve witnessed a small part of your crazy life with my own eyes.” Lyra began. “Careful what you wish for, Lyra.” I sighed. “I knew Lucas was a lot to deal with in all ramifications but I never figured him out as someone who would be this….” Lyra trailed off, at a loss for words. “Intense?” I offered. “Yes, intense.” Lyra nodded. “He lied to your face for weeks and made you believe some falsified romance existed between the both of you and you had to find out all by yourself because he never would’ve told

Rae’s POVThe wedding was tomorrow and I was having jitters about the whole thing already. My mother had tried to assure me that it was pretty normal to be worried but I didn’t know if she was trying to pacify me or if she did mean it. Either way, my nerves were a wreck and Lyra wasn’t here with me because she had something to sort out on my behalf and she didn’t want to stress over it. While I appreciated the gesture, I wanted her to be here for me now that I needed her the most. I hadn’t seen Gunner for the past three days and I hadn’t seen Lucas for longer either which was good for both parties. I heard a knock on the door and I jumped out of the bed, rushing to the door, hoping that it was Lyra on the other side of the door. “Lyra, you owe me, and don’t think—“ I began as I opened the door, only to stop short as I saw who was standing on the other side of the door. “Well, I’m sorry but I’m not Lyra or whoever you were expecting to see.” Gunner smiled at me. “I thought I wa
An Affair With My Bethrothed's Father Chapter One Hundred And Three
Gunner’s POVGunner paused for a moment as he debated on what he was supposed to say. He was momentarily at a loss for words but he knew that he had to say something quickly else, he might potentially lose Rae before they even got married. “When I told you that you had nothing to worry about and there wouldn’t be any form of competition, I meant that, Rae.” “How can you say that when there’s every indication that it’s going to happen sooner rather than later?” Rae argued further and I knew that if I wanted to make her happy, I had to give her something that would pacify her. I thought about telling her the truth but I didn’t know how she was going to take it and besides, I didn’t want to do anything to jeopardize my chances and have my father leapfrog me and take Rae away from me. So I decided that it would be best if I didn’t tell her the truth or if I cherry-picked what I had to tell her. She didn’t need to know everything, she just needed to know enough that I wasn’t going to
