"Here, let me."
As soon as they reached the restaurant Nathalie was about to get off the car, when Lucas stopped her by grabbing her hand and gesturing her to halt for a bit. He hurriedly got off the vehicle and ran towards the other side and like a gentleman Lucas slid the door open as Nathalie crept out with a smile. The woman was taken aback by his advancements and decided to reciprocate his emotions and loving actions. She stepped forward a bit and paused to wait for him instead of the usual norm of Lucas following her behind which had been happening whenever they went out. He turned around and Nathalie grabbed his arm and slipped hers into Lucas's as she giggled sheepishly, with hand in hand as they both walked inside the building Lucas was elated to see her reaction.
"There's a spot."
'Something is still missing, I'm still unable to see behind the scenes.'Lucas squeezed her butt and thought to himself as he pecked the lady's head lovingly.'She does not hate him as much, she is afraid of him. What could possibly be the reason behind this?'She snuggled closer to him while Lucas had been struggling with his thoughts.'I should let her tell me rather than me finding it myself. Nathalie has started to trust me, maybe she will tell me about the secret soon too.'Lucas faked a cough after he made sure Nathalie had calmed down.He placed a kiss on her forehead and stood up for a bath, when Nathalie held his shirt and the man immediately halted."Don't leave me.....please."
The next day Lucas was still in the bed when Nathalie Lancaster woke up before him they both had a vigorous night. The lady rolled over on her belly and stole a glance from the man who had been laying beside him.'I'm sorry Lucas if you feel like I have deceived you but I never meant to do it in the first place.'Nathalie stared at his calm face and the freshly trimmed beard, she knew she was in love with him by now.'But I will accept whatever decision you will take since my life would just simply go back to what it was before you.'The lady found her arm towards her but halted since she did not want to disturb his sleep at all.'Bjt you have a lot more to do, you definitely deserve better and an easy life away from danger and worries. I wou
"Are you ready?"Nathalie changed her clothes and was ready to head down for breakfast, while Lucas had just taken a bath and came out with a towel around his waist."Whaaa-!"Her words left in her mouth as he saw the man with a defined torso coming towards her, Lucas rested his chin over the vrook of her neck and closed his eyes."You smell heavenly, you know?"The man praised her as he wrapped his arms around her waist and slightly swayed with her silhouette. He knew that Ntahakie was going to take him somewhere important and he had a hunch that he things might get worse."Pfft you are just blinded by love, hinry."She held his guin as the lady looked in the mirror and saw their reflec
'I hope your heart will not change, Lucas.'Nathalie murmured to herself and grabbed his hand and gave him a nervous yet forced smile as they walked inside."Why are we here, honey?"Lucas could not contain his curiosity since the beginning of the day had sucked all his energy. Now that Nathalie had been proving all his bad feelings and guesses true, the man felt himself in the middle of nowhere."You will see soon."She gave him a vague answer as they both strode towards the office after passing through the enormous entrance lawn. Lucas could witness numerous kids of all ages playing and engrossed in different activities which could keep them away from the sad thoughts."Hello, Mrs Lee."
*WARNING!*It has killing scene and gore. If you not comfortable with it then please read at your own risk.Thank you!•••'I should have seen this coming, after all he was not bound to me.'Nathalie thought to herself as she saw Lucas stood up from the bench and then walk away from her.'What have I been expecting from him? Hah!'She scoffed and tried to hold on her tears although the lady knew that her heart had shattered in a million pieces after she witnessed him vanishing from her eyes.'I should stay here for a while and then head back to the hotel.'She sneakily wiped off her tears and stared at the child in front of her. Khal had been engrossed in the painting while sitting on the ground with his head buried in the canvas, possibly he inherited the skill from his father Diego.Whereas Nathalie had been struggling with her own assu
*WARNING*It has killing scene and gore. If you are not comfortable then read at your own risk.Thank you~•••Lucas signalled to one of his men who had been holding Diego's henchmen by both arms and the man in black nodded upj getting the signal from his boss. He switched his hands to the neck of Diego's man and within the snap of fingers the man was lying dead on the floor with blood pooling out from his mouth.Yes! With just one swing the cracking sound of his bones resonated and the man was dead. Lucas skimmed around the hall in order to spot the after but Diego was still hiding like a cowed that Lucas called him out once again"Your one man is down, Diego! Are you coming out now or I should conduct a blood bath to lure you out of the mouse hole!?"Who would have thought that the same calm and sweet looking man could have this side too.
"So, you want the kid all for yourself?"Lucas questioned him while staring at Diego with a keen gaze and squinting expression. The man had no clue why Diego would go all the way to find his son."Yes, I want to keep my son. I mean I have no problem if Nathalie wants to meet him, but I want to adopt him."Diego was serious about the decision of his adopting the child, which was visible from his tone and confidence he had in his voice."So you are not after Nathalie winning her love or whatever?"Lucas started his one sole insecurity which made Dgego chuckle. Although he knew Lucas somewhat, but he did not expect any such thing coming from him at all."What!? Haha, no!"Diego laughed and smacked his hand on his own though and then winced in pain, but perhaps the comedic atmosphere was indeed so funny for him to forget his pain.
'What!? No.'Nathalie spoke in a loud voice, she could not help but to yell at Lucas. tears crawled down on her cheeks as the lady had no clue how she could keep herself calm when her own husband had just spoken of divorce."No, I..listen."She held his face once again and made an eye contact while Lucas tried to sound as if he did not care about her emotions hwn deep down the man was dying because he did not want that to himself."Listen to me honey, I know you are angry with me but splitting is not an option.'the lady bent down and tried to caress his cheek, Nathalie sounded hysterical as if she might burst down in madness at any moment.while lucas shrugged off her hand and gulped down the wine once again when nathalie wanted to shed tears as if her world had ended.'No. You can't do this to me Lucas, I know you do not want Khal, I...I don't know how to detach him from myself.'She
Lucas took Kaya to Diego, he didn't want to keep her with himself since it would put her life in danger. He flew straight to Diego with the intention of keeping Kaya safe, she told everything to him about how she met Sandro and whatever be did.Lucas got into trouble and confused about what to do since apparently Kaya was now Richardson' fiance. But he didn't want to showcase the deeds of his brother in front of the cousin, thus he assured Kaya that she would be safe with Diego's family.Diego's wife had patched up with him after she saw the clip that they both were drugged that night, as someone clad in black suit from head to toe 'planted' Nathalie there with him. And the whole scenario resulted into intimacy, Viviane believed in whatever her eyes saw and forgave Diego but she still was hesitant in adopting Khal."But why do you want me to keep her? She will be safe with Richardson."Diego complained w
"What happened to mom?"Khal inquired from grandpa Lancaster who gave him a hug and a teary eyed response, while his lips couldn't say anything since the things were out of his control now.Nathalie was given the poison in the coffee back there in the cafe when Lucas took her to the cafe. Somebody there had given her the poison but it was Sandro who served her personally. Could it be him?The old man and the little boy sat in the corridor of the hospital silently with their thoughts running towards every negative outcome they could imagine. The guards had been keeping an eye on every person present in the arcade or hovering around the ward where she was kept.'I have to contact Lucas and inform him. The situation might turn bad and I don't want to keep him in the dark.'The old man had no clue what to do, but he was aware that Lucas needed to be informed about the whole matter.&n
'Why is this number calling me consistently?'Lucas had no clue why the particular number had been nagging him a lot, the user had been calling him since an hour. Finally Lucas attended the call and was about to yell at the user, without bothering that Diego was still sitting beside him in the car.'Who is she?'Lucas heard a feminine voice which made him end the call, but before he could do Lucas heard a familiar voice. The caller was Kaya Williams who had been calling him for help when Sandro was keeping her confined. [Petrakis book 2]'What the fuck is Alessandro doing there?'He couldn't contain himself and nearly jumped out of the seat, when Diego became curious about the call. He had never seen Lucas with mixed emotions of anger and surprise, which he couldn't understand himself.'Who is this woman with him? Don't tell me this brat is doing something dirty!'Lucas heard thee woman deliberately telling him the address which he repeated under h
Nathalie took her leave and walked straight to the room, she closed the door behind her and tried to calm her pounding heart. Nathalie knew her heart was beating for only one man, who was returning her love the same way.'Whoa! So, this feeling is absolutely true. Is this how people feel in love?'She raked through her hair and walked towards the washroom, the woman opened the tap and splashed water on her face. Nathalie started to wear makeup to impress him, but later on she completely stopped after Lucas praised her bare face.The lady stared in the mirror in front of her and felt heat around her cheeks. Nathalie could see visible blush on her cheeks, which reminded her of Lucas and his words back in the lounge. Nathalie never imagine to have kids with him, after all their relationship had just begun and kids were the last thing she would think of.'I hope he would not treat Khal any different if we happened to have kids together.'Nathalie had no idea or
Nathalie stared at Viviane's back as she left the villa after settling things with Nathalie. The woman was satisfied with all the talk and was relieved by now that Nathalie was definitely not after her husband and did not want to give up her child either."When did you arrive, honey?"She turned towards Lucas who was relieved by now that Viviane didn't blow up his identity. Nathalie's happy expressions relieved him even more and shed all the byrden from his shoulders about the issue."When you were having a cat fighting with her, haha."Lucas leaned in and pecked her lips while he lifted her chin up to make sure the women would look him in the eyes. He wanted to see if she was alright and was just pretending to be fine while having her mind trapped in the mess."I must say you always surprise, little devil!"She lowered her head and made sure that Lucas would not see her blush expression since Na
In the present time Nathalie was sitting in the opposite sifa to Viviane, who analyzed everything in her surroundings in Nathalie's home.After getting the idea that Nathalie could not harm her, she resumed her speech while the jury of ten brawley bodyguards stood in the lounge with their guns in hands. Upon any suspicious movement they were ready to pull the trigger without thinking twice."So are you implying that you don't have anything to do with Diego?"Viviane knew bv now that something was amiss in the whole situation,but she wasn't able to figure out what!She could feel that something was hidden and the feeling made her uncomfortable as if somebody had been keeping an eye on her. Well which definitely was true since Lucas had placed a guard on surveillance in case something happens in the villa.Viviane's cold gaze was fixated on Nathalie who appeared to be calm de
On the other hand when Viviane was having trouble keeping her emotions in check, so she could divorce him easily if he failed to bring her the proofs of his innocence.Sandro was still chasing after his girlfriend and upon finding her whereabouts he flew straight to her. During his fight he was happy about finally being able to find her. But his joy didn't last longer when he reached and found out his beloved woman's marriage to his cousin Richardson. [Petrakis book 2]Lucas had been trying to get along with Khal and filling up the gap between him and Nathalie. The lady had been searching for a balance in her life, since she had recently started to love Lucas and now the problem arrived.Nathalie had recently accepted him as her husband and they both went on the honeymoon, but then the truth was disclosed to him. And the situation got worse, though Lucas was happy that she had been opening up to him and they both created a bondi
Meanwhile on the other hand Nathalie went back to the room, leaving Khal with his grandpa. Old Lancaster felt like someone had poured life within him once again..And surprisingly Khal was getting along with him so easily, they both played cards afterwards and then grandpa offered him a duel of chess. Nathalie was surprised that her son even knew how to play these games, but she recalled that Diego was a master level player in both the games.Sure enough there was no doubt that Khal was their son, Nathalie spent an hour seeing both of the men playing and chatting with each other. Grandpa Lancaster made Khal successfully chat and mingle in without feeling alienated because he was adopted by the family.Although Khal had already said that he was aware of his parents but he did not voice out a question which would be the nightmare to Nathalie. Why did she give him up t
"Give me one reason not to do it.'Vivian shouted to Diego by challenging him to give her at least one reason not to divorce him. The man stared deeply in her eyes making the woman feel his heated stare of sadness and danger.Diego released her arms and stepped back, the man crouched on the floor on his knees and looked up at her face. Viviane's eyes widened upon his act which seemed something more than just guilt."What...what are you doing?"The lady had never seen him defeated let alone begging someone for something. Deep down she knew that Diego was head over heels for her, which made Viviane guilty and feel sympathetic for him.The lady had no clue what he had been doing with Nathlie yet she wanted to believe in him. She leaped towards him but the very thought of him being with Nathalie stopped her footsteps.&nb
