ALLYSA'S POV Long after Ivy walked out, I couldn't think of any other thing but what she said kept going through my mind. I covered the food properly and walked up the stairs to have the lavender bath Ivy already prepared.I kept wondering how intimacy with Lucas would feel like,will he feel I'm not as exposed as he is? I'm not enough? My boobs were perfect and I didn't have them saggy, my stomach was flat, I have a perfect models body just like my profession wants.As I stepped out of the bathroom, I gasped to find Lucas standing in front of the mirror, taking off his jacket. I didn't go in with a towel, thinking I'll have the whole room to myself but it seems he came home earlier.Our eyes met through the mirror, his eyes locked with mine and in two strides, he turned on his heels and walked over to me, his hands snaking around my waist as a small smile covered his lips.“You're becoming a bad girl.” He whispered, nuzzling my neck as his right hand moved to my left boob, slightly p
LUCAS POV My beeping phone brought me out of my sleep as I groaned and picked it up. It was Jack. I turned to look at Allysa and she was soundly asleep so I got out of bed, not wanting to wake her up.“Hey man, what's wrong and why are you calling so early in the morning, hell I was having the best sleep of my entire life.” I complained and he growled.“You need to check something and I mean now, were you able to let Allysa know about the situation between you and Leah?” He asked and I froze.“I….I didn't, what's wrong?” I asked, hoping it's not what was running through my mind.“She uploaded those tapes and it's on every site!” My heart sank to the pit of my stomach as I staggered. My whole life came crumbling in front of me and I wasn't aware I'd started crying.“Lucas, Lucas are you there?” Jack called, asking probably because I'd gone quiet. I wasn't thinking properly and right now I didn't know what to do.“Jack it's all out, I'm gonna lose my marriage, I have to do something I
LUCAS POV As I approached the gates to Leah's house, my hands on the steering vibrated, my body trembling as I forcefully stopped the car, bumping into the gate as the security guard stepped out of his hiding spot cause he definitely wasn't doing his duty.“What do you think you're doing Mr?” He thundered but I couldn't care less. “Your mistress, where's she? I need to speak with her.” I said, trying to walk past him but he held me back, blocking my path in the process.“You cannot just walk in like you own everything in there, it's terrible and my mistress is a very __”“Demonic human who shouldn't be roaming about freely amongst humans. I bet she's a beast!” I screamed, hoping anyone would hear from inside.Just then, an older lady walked out through the gate with a scowl on her face. “What was the noise J, wh__” she stopped talking, her eyes narrowing slightly on me as I stood staring into her eyes.“Where's she? Did she suddenly lose the wings she had? Or you clipped them somewh
LUCAS POV I stepped out of my car and looked around the familiar compound and environment where I grew up but suddenly I didn't feel that excitement of coming home, nothing seemed right, the day was blurry.I walked into the house and found granny and my both parents seated discussing but it stopped the moment I walked in.“You should be ashamed of yourself.” Granny spat, looking at me disdainfully as I walked slowly up to them.“I'm really sorry granny, mom, dad I__”“You what?” Dad thundered, looking away. “That girl is the daughter of a very good business partner,her parents only child how do you expect them to feel? Or worse how would you have felt if she did something like this to you? How? Tell me!” He screamed and I fell on my knees, tears rolling out of my eyes.“Where's Allysa?” Granny asked.“She's at home, I left very early to__” I stopped in mid sentence, swallowing hard.“Where did you go to?”“I went to talk to Leah and__”“Her name is Leah? The girl in your horrible vi
LUCAS POV I picked my phone and tried dialing her number but it wasn't going through. “What have I done? Where has she gone to? With all her stuffs.” The next minute, granny's call came through as my heart skipped.She's definitely going to ask after Allysa, what do I tell her?“Hi granny.” It's best she finds out now rather than later.“How's Allysa? Did you talk to her?” She asked.“Uhmm__ Allysa..”“Why are you trailing off? Where's she?”“Granny you have to forgive me, she packed out.” I voiced out as she gasped. Tears stung my eyes at the disappointment my parents and grandma must be facing.“You made her leave, can you see what you did? Huh?” She screamed at me and I couldn't fault her for it. “I'm sorry granny, I'll get her back, I'll try.” I said loud enough for anyone to hear.“Get her back Lucas, her place is here with us, not running away from us. I know she's hurt, all the more we need to be around her.”“I'll bring her home granny, do not worry.” she sighed.“I trust yo
LUCAS POV “Good day, Mr Jackson speaking, Allysa's husband.” The line went quiet immediately but I knew he was still on the line as I could hear him breathing.“Yeah, how may I help you?” He asked and I sighed. “You prepared the divorce papers, right?” I asked.“Yes I did, is something wrong?” “No not at all, though I'm not signing it and you wasted your time but I'd like to ask you for a favor, my wife's missing and I can't find her, you definitely know where she is.” I said and head him sigh heavily.“I really wished I knew but she refused to tell me, the only thing I know is that she rushed out of my office so she doesn't miss her flight.” “Flight?” I asked.“Yes and I don't think it's to any other states I think she left the country.” My heart sinked into the pit of my stomach as I staggered a bit.“Meaning she should be on the plane now heading to God knows where.” I closed my eyes as I felt the tears coming again.“Thanks a lot.” I ended the call and dialed Jack's line.“Hey
LUCAS POV “I'm really getting tired and frustrated, I feel the universe is trying to punish me for my wrong doings.” I muttered, sighing tiredly as Jack sighed. “Why couldn't I find her? She's really good at hiding but I won't relent, I must __”“Must do what Lucas? She doesn't want to be found, she doesn't can't you see it?” Jack asked and though I had that at the back of my mind, I refused to believe it. I know she's angry but she'll come back to me, she'll come back home.“Her parents haven't called, that's alarming.” Jack said as I sighed.“Must be in contact with my parents and granny, I really don't know how to face them.”“Any how, you'll have to face them sooner than later.” Just then, my phone rang and my heart began to beat very fast.“Speak of the devil.” I muttered under my breath.“Who's it?” Jack asked.“Her mother, how do I respond? It's __” I trailed off, not knowing what to say. I tapped the green icon and placed the phone on my ear.“Lucas, we need to talk.” She sai
LUCAS POV It's been three weeks since Allysa left without leaving a trace, three weeks since my life became a mess and three weeks since her mom kept sending threats to me. As I walked down the stairs, Benny walked out of the kitchen with a tray containing food but she should be used to it by now, I don't eat breakfast anymore.“Good morning sir, you should have breakfast.” She said, placing the food on the table but I just scoffed.“Benny I don't think you're learning. When have you ever seen me eating breakfast in the past few weeks? I'm running late and won't be the one to lecture you on what to do, you can have the breakfast.” I said and walked out of the house.If only Allysa was here, then I'd be eating breakfast on a daily basis. My phone rang and Jack's name appeared on it.“Hey dude, what's up?” “Where are you? You cannot keep the investors waiting it's wrong.” Jack said.“Then you should keep them busy that's why you're my assistant, talk to them and explain the project w
