ENTWINED HEART: desire and deceit chapter 40
Lucas I finished work and decided to go straight to the restaurant reservation. By this time, every staff member including Abigail was already gone from the office and I made my way to my car. I got inside as I started driving to the place.As she has said, it was a private reservation in a room away from the rest. I informed the receptionist and she called someone to lead me inside the VIP areas. This was a really big restaurant.The moment I entered where our reservation was, I noticed that Lucinda was already there. She smiled as she saw me and I first observed my area.There was this redness to the room from the lights to the seat that made me feel a lump in my throat. What was this sly she-cat playing at this time? She herself wore a rather low cut dress that exposed most of her cleavage that had me wondering if her plot was to get laid.There was a bottle of wine on the table and table water. Along with a ring up button."See, private." She said to me,I nodded as I went to tak

AbbyI had declined the outing after giving hopes that I might oblige when it struck me that just earlier, there had been some attitudinal display from the other ladies at the company. A whole lot of them had behaved as though I was their enemy which was actually something I was not trying to deny. I had to give Sarah enough time to spread the rumours too about what I wanted them to hear. This had everything to do with the fact that they would not raise a scandal. I felt for Jack though. He looked really sad but he had been a perfect gentleman and let me do my thing with the urging that I would certainly join them next time to which I nodded."Oh, Abigail, we would miss you at the table." Sarah cooed.I smiled."You mean that you would miss me, right? The others don't like me." I said to her,"That's true. I will miss you but tomorrow, I will tell you all about it." She said,Yes, I believed that she would but this friendship which she was trying to force me into was just not doing i

Lucas The instant she came to hug me, she kissed me on the mouth and I pushed her away."What was that for?" I demanded angrily.She rushed over to me and tried to clean whatever imaginary lipstick was there because I could not see."I'm really sorry, Lucas. I actually tripped and that's what happened. I would never do something to you which you do not permit." She responded.I was observing her as she tried to wipe me clean over and then I stopped her. She claimed that she would never do anything that I did not approve of like I had suddenly gotten amnesia and forgotten the kind of person she was. Lucinda was really doing her best to get on my nerves and I was beginning to feel anger at her. I wanted her away from me and I knew I should have discharged her right then but the thought of using her to keep my emotions towards my best friend's daughter was still staring at me. She would prove a very good form of distraction towards that goal and I decided to let it go."I'll be going no

AbbyI had been on the call for a long time with Taylor as I needed help with my mood. She really was a great friend and if anything, I was so glad she was the one talking to me. We kept on talking until she started feeling sleepy and I needed a cold shower so I could sleep heavily in anticipation of what other heartache that damned Lucas would bring my way.I got ready and packed up my things as I went to the bedroom and undressed. In a short time, I was under the shower as I let the cold water splash on my body. I felt a lot better now but then, I had to ruin everything by beginning to wonder what it would feel like if it was me and that asshole under the shower at this time. Perhaps even, it would be really fun and enjoyable but I did not really want to think about it that way. I just wanted to get rid of every feeling that I had for Lucas and focus on my life perhaps. Who knows what I would find, happiness and new friends? I could even mingle with others and not be scared that he

Abby I froze instantly as I tightened my eyes.. What on earth was he doing here? He shook be sleeping or something, bright? Or wait, they had their outing too."It is you, Abigail!" This was Sarah calling me and she sounded drunk.Slowly, I wheeled around to find myself face to face with Jack and a not so sober Sarah. Somebody tell me something I was missing right this instant!!! Did they start a drunken night celebration and no one informed me? Even Jack himself had signs of tiredness and drinking but he was sober."Hey, guys." I greeted."Fancy running into you here. You're getting hangover drugs?" He asked me.There was this look in his eyes that I really did not want to think about because I did not want to assume things with him. He was just my really nice colleague and that was all there was."Ah, yes. Fancy running into you here too." I responded."Someone drunk?" He asked me."Yes but definitely not me. My friend. She went and partied. Had so much to drink. I met her in my ho

Lucas I have no idea why I was being this way but the notion that something might have happened between the both of us did actually appeal to me. I mean, she was all I have been desiring for the longest time now and really, it has been a rollercoaster being close to her.However, if we did have sex while I was drunk. I was actually going to battle with myself for not being awake through the process. In fact, I would find my way to get that memory back. Who knows, I just might build something with her."You aren't saying anything." Her voice cut into my stream of thoughts and I looked at her as I shook my head."No. Nevermind. I wasn't expecting anything." I said rather too quickly. It gave off falsehood even in my ears and I felt like I was making a big mistake."If your asking if we fucked last night, then I would like to break it to you that nothing happened." She said to me,Why did she have to say it like that? Like it was such a bad thing or maybe, that I was diseased or somethi

AbbyHe was being rather too close. Closer than I had imagined and by this I was referring to his questions. Why was he suddenly so interested in knowing what my spec was? Did he actually care when we all know that he cared about that damned actress who did not know her place. For a moment, I was remote to ignore but my insides were burning with the wishful thinking that he might actually care about it. Who knows, that could have explained why he kissed me the other night and then fled I hesitated a little to see what he did but then I agreed with him that I did not care for drunk men. This was not to make him feel silly. It was just the only way I could tell him that I cared about him without telling him. I clearly understand that notion behind the whole spec and kind syndrome. I was expected to say an exact physical requirement but then, if I did, he would know I cared about him.I had been hoping that he would drop the subject right there so we do not delve deeper and that he woul

Lucas It had been such a time with her but I did not know what else to do. The moment she had tapped me, I feared it was a way to stop me from going further. The first thing that came to my mind was that I was probably taking advantage of her and it did not make much sense to me. I did not want to pass out as a pervert that had taken advantage of his friend's daughter. So, I halted despite the fact I wanted to continue. Looking at her, to know if I had done something wrong, Abigail pointed to the burning food.My, I nearly laughed out loud. I mean, all along, I had been worried over nothing. She was a great woman because I could remember a certain time with Lucinda. I of course had been making breakfast for us and she had been more interested in getting me to fuck her. She kept pressuring me on just how fun it would be to have sex in the kitchen and eventually I did succumb. Long story short, we ended up going out for breakfast as everything was charred by the time I took notice.Abi

Lucas It was finally time. I mean, Lucinda believed that she could use the press against me as a weapon and I would sit back and watch. It was finally time to play the same game as her. I was already a rejuvenated man at this point when I realised that all along when I had been scared, Gavin was actually rooting for us. It felt really great that he was not fighting me for his daughter's attention and somehow, I was beginning to feel like I owed him much. At first, it was really hard to believe and I wanted to tell him to come clean on what he was planning on doing to me but I simply kept my mouth shut. It would be best to dwell on his current promise after all.I arrived at the venue for the conference and as soon as members of the press caught sight of me, they were already rushing towards me with a lot of questions spewing from their lips. I was intrigued at the moment with how desperate for information they all were but I made my way inside without saying a single word to them. As

Abigail I should have known that my father would react this way. I mean, what was I expecting? That he would stay silent and ignore me all through without any back up plan? Of course he was going to come over and I had been totally vulnerable at this point.Lucas was pretty much calm that I had not been expecting this sort of reaction from him. He was being respectful to my father in such a way that I was wondering if he would win the old stubborn man over. I have always had my way with my father being paved clearly for me because I was either throwing a tantrum or I was fighting against him. And that was the exact strategy I had been looking forward to sporting. Tormenting him until he had no other options but to give in had been my go to plan and I did not care one bit about anything else.I wanted to ask Lucas to stop but now he has mentioned Lucinda and my father was demanding to know if he had thrown me to her."Of course not, dad. Actually...." Just then, the doorbell rang and

Lucas It was beginning to show down that everything was going in different directions. I had not anticipated that Gavin would find out about us in this way as it would have been a more respectful approach when he was all healed and stuff. Right now, we had to make this decision because it would have been worse if he had to find this out through other means. He was obviously pissed at the moment as we kept trying his number until then, we gave up. I actually asked Abigail to stop because it was not working."Do you think I shouldn't have mentioned it to him?" She asked me."Well, there's no point dwelling in the past. You said that you're ready to fight for us and so am I. How about we figure a way out of this mess together?" I asked her."But what if he hurts himself?" She asked me."Hurt himself, that's not the kind of person Gavin is. He would probably be thinking of how to cut my balls and feed them to his pets. I know that for certain." I said to her and she smiled. Obviously, sh

Abby I was shocked. I had come home with pains and a heavy heart. Seriously I wanted to go drink myself to stupor but I did not have the strength. Lucas had left the office and I came home after work. My phone was ringing over and over again from Taylor and I was in no mood to speak to her. All I could do was keep crying in my room alone because I had a feeling that he was with her. From time to time, I would pick up my phone just to check and see if there was anything from him and her. Maybe I had been partially thinking they would finally decide to make it true and open to everyone that they were sleeping with each other. I just wished this was all a bad dream that I would wake up from but pinching myself and I realised that it was the real deal. I had successfully lost him to the arms of his ex lover and I would learn to live with the pain of the moment we shared.I was wondering who it was that was knocking on my door and a part of me wished he was the one. I wanted to see the lo
ENTWINED HEART: desire and deceit chapter 89
LucasI never would have expected in my entire life that I would be this shocked. I had gone there with the clear reasons that I was going to confront her and try getting her to rebuff everything so far. I mean, she had done nothing in the line of denying what was in the news and I was not finding it amusing at this point. So, I just sought to reach an agreement or something when she suddenly mentioned Abigail's name. I stopped for something as I had watched her while she was sleeping with triumph. She knew that she clearly had me by the jugular at this point and by the scruff of my neck which was a bad moment.I thought about the best way to get her off my back and decided to play with her."What are you saying? I'm here for us to discuss your little stunt." I said to her,She suddenly erupted into an annoying laugh that had me provoked."My little stunt you say? Come on now, Lucas. I had never thought of you to be petty as well as crazy. That's her name, the bimbo who you were defen

LucindaIt was time to get ready and my entire apartment was crawling with fashion designers. I had excused myself to shower before coming out to sit down for my hair to get made. I was asked if I had any style in mind but there was actually nothing. I simply wanted the best look that they had to offer. If I was going to make a debut, I was going to look lol. I had never been through hell while doing it. Jarvis on the other hand was really occupied with taking calls and she spoke now with so much authority as I could hear her declining some and leaving others on hold. Each time our gazes met, she would give a thumbs up to me and I would return a smile to her.She was right about one thing, we were back. No, I was the star here and it was my controversy that was the star of the whole show which means she needed me more than I did her. I sat down there and then one of them brought me a catalogue from which I could pick my hair. I did not have the time or energy for such things."Listen,
ENTWINED HEART: desire and deceit chapter 87
Lucinda Well I was in the mood at this point. To think that Lucas would ever embarrass me because of that nobody was something I never thought in my wildest dreams would happen. And I saw that look in his eyes. This was the look of a man in love and was not willing to leave that woman. He looked like he could actually kill me while he had been defending her and she had looked at him as I would my very first highschool boyfriend. Now, this was becoming clear that it was no longer a coincidence. I had met him the other day at his office and he was talking to her. The same girl was coming out of his office another day and I was beginning to piece it all little by little. Who on earth was this lady that had this side of him coming out. He was never this protective of me but I could identify when a man was guarding his own and I realised that I had a contender for his attention.I had seen the girl and I already knew she was very young which means that she would bow to pressure but I was

Lucas I could not believe my ears as she spoke to me. Apparently, we might have fooled everyone else but she could tell there was a sort of chemistry between us. She had not been certain but when she had mentioned that Abigail had been led away by Lucinda, the hurry with which I had gotten up was faster than usual. I could have made a call that the security escorts Lucinda out but I went there and took care of it myself. She also mentioned Jack and how I kept questioning her about anything that would bring him close to Abigail. In her own words, it was like a wolf guarding its own and I was stunned. All my efforts at keeping things discreet were beginning to fade away and I was only lucky she said everyone else thought that I hated her. That was a plus as it was bad enough that I had myself wrapped in a scandal but having to drag her into another that would complicate things for her was not something I wanted to deal with."But you said that I was treating her too badly. I mean, you
ENTWINED HEART: desire and deceit chapter 85
Lucas There was no best way to explain this to her that she would pay attention to. She was angry and she probably hated me so much that I could not even get through to her. I was observing her as she spoke, she had a rather deeply rooted pain in her and the thought of me being the reason for her pain really hurt. Just a few hours ago, I had been making promises to her and I meant everything I said. I had been ready to come clean with Gavin on how I felt about his daughter but seeing her right now and how angry she was, I started to take a pause. I knew it would be nearly impossible to break through and I would have to figure out a way.There was however one thing that I knew I had to do and that was make this right. I could either do that or convince Abigail that this was all a set up. I watched as she walked away angrily but then returned to take her glasses when I tried to bring her in for a kiss. Not because I was making light of her emotions but I had seen such situations on the
