Arrange Marriage With Alpha Lucus Chapter:- 24
Emma spends her entire Saturday morning cleaning up the house. She blasts the music to the fullest through her EarPods while mopping the floor and wiping the windows clean. Who knows that Mr. Brightside could make a great anthem while scrubbing the toilet tiles?It isn't until noon that the Omega finally finishes cleaning, with every single nook and cranny of the house spotless, before she decides to take a shower and prepare a hot cup of instant ramen for lunch.Emma likes cleaning. She likes that she gets to see the obvious results in an instant, like how a dusty floor gets shiny after she mops it or how stained windows turn clear and bright once she polishes them.More importantly, she likes how cleaning makes her forget, even for a little while. Emma refuses to allow herself to think about what happened last night. She refuses to remember her heartbreak being ditched at her birthday dinner, alone.After showering, Emma gets into the kitchen to start preparing her ramen, and that's

Emma feels so bad for Jack when the man repeats his apology for the umpteenth time before leaving their table. Nobody would've thought that Lucus would tell a total stranger about their relationship when they'd specifically made a deal."Hey! That's not cool." Zia says once Jack is gone, "I thought you guys agreed that each of you was free to date anyone. Why did you sabotage Emma when you were dating Moni yourself? That's not fair!"There's a heavy silence following Zia's argument because she definitely hits a sore spot. After a moment too long, Lucus finally replies, "I just don't think that he's a good man.""It's alright," Emma says next. God, she really hates drama. "I'm not interested in seeing anyone right now. So, it's okay."When it gets a little too uncomfortable, Lucus stands up and announces that he's going to say hi to his friend, the head chef, before leaving the table.Once they are alone, Zia breaks her silence again. "How long have you had romantic feelings for Lucus?

Lucus breathing is becoming irregular. It's getting impossible to control himself as he runs his fingers along Emma's lean body and moves further down. Down and down until he reaches Emma's waistband. He plays along the line of the stretchable band until his fingers accidentally graze the tip of Emma's things. The Omega is fully turned on by Lucus, and he loves that he made that happen.Emma's reaction is unrestrained. She hasn't been touched in so long. The moment Lucus fingers touch her tip, although just for a fraction of a second, Emma instinctively curves her back, landing her head on the Alpha shoulder while her ass pushes back on Lucus groin, and fuck, Lucus erection is huge, pressing proudly in between Emma's cheeks."Alpha..." Emma whines, already ashamed that she's breathless from nothing.Lucus answers with a hum that could pass as a low groan as well, his nose still pressing on Emma's neck while his arm reacts by pulling Emma in closer to him. Lucus knows that his breaths

For a second, the world stops moving, but in the next, Lucus pulls himself apart, putting a huge distance between them. Emma doesn't understand why her husband looks scared and frightened before he tugs at his own hair like he's regretting his action and curses at the wind."Fuck! Omega, I'm sorry. That wasn't supposed to happen. That was a mistake. I just need to go." Lucus says this and immediately storms out of the house, leaving Emma alone and brokenhearted.As soon as her husband is gone, the emptiness claims her in an instant. It's overwhelming and it's pulsating; Emma can't seem to think of anything else but her shattered heart. She thuds her head on the wall behind her and slowly slides her back against the wall, down and down, until she's sitting on the floor.There's a kind of pain from within that's crushing and indescribable. Emma doesn't know what's happening to her heart anymore. Right there on the floor, Emma coils her body and cries. It seems impossible to control her

There is a huge ballroom on the top floor of Will's Building, and the whole space was decorated for the launching party of their newest anticancer drug, Apex. The ambience inside is classy and luxurious, with a high chandelier hanging from the ceiling. There is a stage upfront already set up with spotlights and a big screen behind it, whereas across the room are tables and chairs arranged neatly.Emma can't deny that she's excited for yet another success of Will's, but she has always hated launching parties like this because it's just too much pressure on her. There's this necessity to impress important people from other companies—the need to make a good impression and give out her ever-ready smiles because in this business, connection is everything. She might not like everybody she meets here tonight, but she needs a good rapport with everyone because, who knows, one day they might end up working together.A step into the extravagant ballroom, and Emma's heart is already picking up s

There's some sort of pain that Lucus is sure he has never experienced before, like a sharp, piercing pain that shoots right through his heart when he realizes what he sees. Without any rationale whatsoever, Lucus expresses his distaste outwardly, clearing his throat out loud so that both males on the balcony simultaneously turn to him."I think that's enough." Lucus doesn't mean to, but even he knows how his tone comes out: stern and authoritative. "We're going to be late, Emma. Sorry Max, we have somewhere else to be."Emma doesn't get the chance to say anything when, in a blink, Max's fingers are off her hair, and in the next, Lucus is pulling his friend's jacket off Emma and tugging on her hands. Lucus intertwines his long fingers in between Emma's chubby ones and pulls the Omega to his side before arranging his steps to get back into the ballroom. But as he's about to leave the balcony, he hears Max's voice calling out to him."Lucus!"Lucus and Emma both turn around, their steps

"You can still do that," Emma says curtly. "You can still bring Moni here after the divorce," she adds next.There's a moment of pure stillness in the air as Lucus registers Emma's words; his eyes narrow down, and then he asks, "What divorce?" Lucus questions come in such a way that he strongly presses on every single syllabus and enunciates them."Our divorce." Emma answers casually, like it's not big news and they're just conversing about the weather. "I mean, that has been the plan all along, right? This marriage serves only to please your dad. We're getting a divorce once dad gives you your shares; you said so yourself. If we stick to that plan, it's actually long overdue. So, I've already talked to my lawyer. I believe she'll contact you soon.""What the hell, Omega?" Lucus voice raises, and he steps closer to Emma, whose response is to back towards the Catalpa.Emma sees how Lucus brows narrow, and she can almost see the fire burning in Alpha's big eyes. She doesn't know why, bu

Emma wonders why she wakes up the next morning. Can't life work like a game and just stop and restart each time she reaches a low point? Maybe she'd do better the next round.She stretches her limbs and groans at how sore they are. Only when she's taking her shower does she realize that her throat isn't doing any better either; each time she swallows, it feels like her throat is being dragged down a grater.When she gets to the office, Emma resumes her pending work. She pulls out the folders that Lucus needs to look at today. There's a new proposal from a company called We Corp. on anticoagulant drugs. Emma had already briefed Lucus about the proposal sometime last week, and the Alpha had a short meeting with their representative a few days before they launched Apex. However, Lucus hasn't given Emma any input from that meeting yet, so Emma needs that to be done and documented today.Not long after Lucus comes in, Emma is called into the office. So readily, she walks in with all the fi
