Chapter 0001

ANGELINA

Standing before the brown mahogany door,I took few deep breaths to calm my racing heart.I stretched my trembling hand, holding onto the doorknob and gently pushed the door open

I was welcomed by a sexy sight and there was no doubt Lucas had just walked out of the bathroom.His hair was wet and some locks were stuck on his forehead,water beads trickling down his perfectly toned abs made me gulp.

A towel was wrapped tightly around his waist, revealing the perfectly defined Adonis belt.

Damn it!

I couldn't believe he was all mine.Even though Lucas and I have been married for a couple of years and I see that gorgeous body every single day,I can't help but stare every time he gets naked around me.I guess I will never get enough of him.

He raised his eyebrow at me when he realised that I was drooling over him.His eyes held something dark and the corner of his lips curved into a sinister smile.I could tell that he was up to no good.I know he was trying to tease me, congratulations to him because he succeeded!

I could feel the desire to have him build up deep inside me...

I lowered my head,feeling unworthy to lust over him even though he was my legal husband.I didn't move even an inch,I stood at the door, holding the medical report in my hand so tightly until the papers were folded.

The heavy footsteps echoed in the air as Lucas walked to me.However,I didn't dare to raise my head to look at him.He towered before me standing at 6 '2,he executed a powerful aura which demanded respect but it didn't affect me in any way since I was used to it.

He leaned forward slightly and held the medical reports,my grip on the papers loosened and he pulled it from my hand with ease.As much as I wanted to hide the papers,I thought it would only be fair for him to know about the results because it involved both of us.

I didn't want to be mean to my husband,he deserved to know the truth.My heart pounded wildly against my ribcage as though it would explode in the next second.

I have never been this nervous in my life…

Lucas studied the medical report carefully,he heaved a deep sigh then tossed it on the bed and his actions only made me more nervous.

Lucas slid his finger under my chin then slowly tilted my head upwards and now I was looking at him.His sapphire orbs locked with my green irises and it made me feel as though he could see through my soul.

“I'm sorry.I failed you once again.”I whispered but loud enough for him to hear what I had just said.

My voice was full of emotions and the tears that I had been holding since I walked out of the gynaecologist's office streamed down my cheeks like a waterfall.

Without a word,Lucas pulled me into a tight hug and patted my back soothingly to help me calm down.I dug my manicured nails in his masculine bareback, hugging him back tight and soft sobs escaped my lips.

Only the heavens knew how desparately I needed that hug.I felt safe in his arms and protected from the brutality of the outer world.His arms felt like home...

After hugging for a while,we pulled back and Lucas cradled my face, caressing my cheeks soothingly.

“It’s okay,”His voice was so gentle and coaxing.I stepped back and shook my head vigorously.

”It's not okay,Lucas.I would like to give you a child.I want you to be like your best friends Jared and Andrew who have kids.I don't want you to feel like an outcast whenever they talk about how amazing it feels to be a Dad.It's not okay…”I whispered the last words under my breath shaking my head as my voice broke at the end because the emotions were overwhelming.

I felt bad for my husband,all his friends had kids.I know deep down he felt a great pressure because he was the only one left out and it always broke my heart whenever his friends came over for dinner and talked about how amazing it was to be a dad.

We have been married for four years.However,we haven't been able to have a child.It's not because we didn't want to.It's just that…the heavens hasn't bless us with one.

We have visited various gynaecologists in Xiaomi city.They have run thousands of tests on me and said that I was alright.

Despite their assurance,I couldn't help it but have self doubt.I have tried eating a balanced diet, taking herbs and drugs but nothing seemed to work.

My desire is to give my husband a child.Lucas loves children and there is no doubt that he will be a good father to our kids.Even before we got married,it was our dream to start a family of our own.

However,my dream of becoming a mother is fading away slowly with each passing day...

My heart twisted inside my chest as though someone was squeezing it into a tiny ball when I gave it a thought…

Lucas wiped tears from my eyes,his finger cold against my cheeks that made me tremble slightly.My eyes shut effortlessly and I leaned in to feel more of his comforting touch.

Before I could comprehend what was going on behind my closed eyes,Lucas smashed his lips on mine.He kissed me gently and passionately,and I kissed him back.

When we pulled off from the kiss,we were both breathless.Lucas bumped his forehead with mine, caressing my cheeks using his thumbs.

“What about we give it another try?”He said breathlessly,his voice husky and sexy.His warm breath fanned my flushed cheeks, sending shivers down my spine.

“Yes,yes I would like us to give it another try.''I nodded vigorously, desperate to get pregnant and bear a child for my husband.

The heir of Ford's family.

I was relieved that Lucas wasn’t giving up on us after trying for four years.That only proved to me how much my husband loved and cared for me.

I had thought that he would be disappointed when I told him the same old news. I was afraid that he would abandon me for being unable to bear him the heir.

Lucas smashed his lips on mine once again,the kiss was a little bit rough compared to the gentle passionate kiss that we shared earlier.My fingers were tangled in his wet hair,I pulled him down to me as we continued to kiss.

His hands roamed on my body as though he couldn't get enough of me.He gave my arse a tight squeeze and I moaned in pleasure.

My husband knows my body more than I do.He knows where to touch and what to do to make my knees weak and turn me into a moaning mess.

He hoisted me and I wrapped my legs around his waist tightly.I felt something poking me down there as the towel which was wrapped on his waist had fallen down.I grinded on his hard on and he groaned in between the kiss…

_________________

A groan tore from my lips when I tossed on the bed.My body felt sore and I couldn't help it but smile when yesterday's memories clouded my mind.

The love making was mind blowing.Lucas turned me into different positions which I had no idea a human could turn into.It felt as though he was trying to remind me of how bad he was in bed.

He is such a bastard!I won't deny it,I liked every single second of it.

My cheeks flushed when I recalled the sweet words that he whispered in my ear while thrusting in and out of my core hard and deep.He made me forget about all the struggles and everything that worried me.

It felt amazing,as though we were in another world and it was just the two of us, making love.

I could feel my nipples harden and my pussy wet at the thought of it.Heaving a deep sigh,I pushed the memories at the back of my mind.Lucas was not around and there was no doubt he was in the study room,he is usually a morning person.

A groan tore from my lips once again when I climbed down from the bed.My pussy ached a little bit and my legs wobbled, reminding me of the steamy moments.Taking a deep breath,I picked a clean towel and headed straight to the bathroom to take a quick shower.

I couldn't believe I had overslept.Perhaps it was because I was exhausted after the love making.I slept like a baby, something that I hadn't experienced in such a long time.

When I was done in the bathroom,I walked back to our room and changed into comfortable clothes then left for the kitchen.

“Good morning,”I said with a smile.Mia,our house servant, looked at me with a raised brow.I know she wondered why I was so happy because yesterday night I looked so sad when I bumped into her on my way to our room.

If only she knew…my cheeks flushed at the thought.

“Good morning Mrs Ford.I’m so sorry, breakfast is not ready yet.The thing is,I had to wake up early in the morning to go to the grocery to pick fresh vegetables and..."I waved my hand in the air dismissively.

”It's okay Mia.Don't worry about it,I will prepare breakfast for my husband today.”I playfully snatched the cheese and bread from her.

Mia is not only our house help,she is like a friend to me.She has been working for us for the past four years.

She gave me an awkward look but didn't say anything,”Just take a rest.”I said with a smile,”Okay ma'am,if you need anything,don't hesitate to call me.”She then left the kitchen.

I prepared breakfast while humming a random song.It was not everyday that I made breakfast for my husband because I'm always busy working on company projects.

It's just that…I wanted to surprise him today because he has been so understanding and supportive.

Even when my mother-in-law and other people try to shame me because I haven't been able to give Lucas a child,he always defends me.

Breakfast was ready after ten minutes.It was just a simple breakfast, sandwich and his favourite apple juice.I arranged the food on a tray then headed to the study room.

“Good morning to the best husband in the whole world?”I joked when I entered the study room.

Lucas raised his face from the pile of papers on the vintage table and looked my way with a raised brow.

“What's the occasion?”He asked,a smile playing on his face.”

“Nothing really.Dont tell me I can't surprise my husband once in a while.”I gave him a seductive look, carefully placing the tray on the table.

If he wasn't a morning person,I would have brought him breakfast in bed.

“Just decided to prepare breakfast for you.Thank you for always being understanding, supportive, patient and above all...”The corner of my lips curved into a wicked smile,"Thank you for yesterday night!"I winked at him.

Lucas smiled back at me and he looked more handsome.His brown hair was neatly brushed away from his face.His strong chiselled jaw made him look so hot and those lips,Damn! It made me want to kiss him.

“That's so sweet of you,my love.I will always be understanding.”He pecked me on the lips.

”I promise I will try my best to give you a child...”Lucas nodded at my words with a smile,”Please join me.”He motioned for me to sit down and I flashed him a gentle smile…

_____________

We arrived at the company after a thirty minute drive.The environment was calm and everyone was minding his/her own business.

Lucas and I walked to the private elevator,he stepped aside like a gentleman that he is and allowed me to enter first.

The elevator dinged and I turned to look at Lucas. and we locked eyes.For a split second,I was lost in those cerulean orbs.I couldn't help but wonder what I ever did to deserve such an understanding,caring and smart man.

He was not only good in bed,he was also good when it comes to closing business deals, coming up with new ideas to improve the company and running the company all together.

“I have to take care of some pending work in my office,hun.''His deep masculine voice brought me back to the real world.Lucas leaned forward slightly then pecked me on the lips and I flashed him a smile.

Since Lucas is the C.E.O of Ford’s jewellery company,that only means he has a heavy load on his shoulder to carry.

“See you around and take care.”I could feel the love and affection in his voice,"I love you, Lucas."I said with a smile.

A groan left my lips and I collapsed on the highly backed chair.I have been working on the new project for hours, going through the new jewellery designs over and over again and it was driving me crazy because nothing seemed to make sense.

Heaving a frustrated sigh in defeat,I picked the files and headed out of my office.Lucas is smart,I know he will be able to help me figure things out.

My heart pounded wildly and I could feel butterflies in my tummy.I won't lie,I was excited to see my husband once again.Even though we have been apart for a few hours,it felt like days to me.

Perhaps I was just exaggerating but that was how I felt...

“This is not the right time, Monalisa.”I was about to knock on the door when I heard my husband's voice.

I creased my eyebrows,a frown forming on my face and my hand hung in the air.I couldn't help it but wonder what was going on.

Monalisa is my best friend,she works in our company as one of the company's event organizer.She was supposed to be with her team working on our company's jewellery show which is two weeks away.

I was the one who persuaded Lucas to hire Monalisa even though she was not qualified for the job.She used to work in a bar as a waitress and I didn't like it because the customers were rude to her sometimes.

“What is the right time,Lucas? There will never be a right time.''She protested and the frown on my face only deepened.

Did something happen concerning the jewellery show event?I couldn't help but question myself.

”I have a lot of things to take care of, Monalisa.Can we talk about it some other time?'’My husband answered calmly.

“I have been patient enough,Lucas.We can't go on like this!Angelina needs to know that I'm pregnant for you!”Lisa said and there was no hint of remorse in her voice.

The files that I was holding in my hands dropped on the floor with a thud…
