Lucas

Being with her is one thing I can’t discipline myself to stop. All through my stay in the UK, her voice has been the only voice I really wanted to hear, her scent had lingered in my nose, and I smell her all day.

I would have not traveled so suddenly if not for the fact that I couldn’t help. I had these strange feelings after I had picked Helen up at her mum’s place. One feeling that I have never felt before. I felt my legs heavy and my joints cracked like the tendons were replaced with a knot. Then, the intense fever and dry throat set in. I managed to go out in search of her when I couldn’t get in touch with her. I didn’t know that it was a mistake, I would have listened to my body and called the doctor that night, but I decided to take the risk by calling him the next morning.

It was at midnight that I felt my life draining out of me, I was weak and for the first time, I was helpless. I managed to walk downstairs and Mr. Jones was already waiting in the sitting room. He q

    I was at the door when I heard Helen's voice. The excitement of meeting her filled my mind. I thought she was signing, but when I walked closer, I realized she was talking to someone on the phone. I opened the door, hoping that she will notice, but she never did. I stood still and listened to her conversation.I was shocked when I realized that she was talking to my mum. I watched the boldness that she had. She wasn't afraid of looking straight at her. When my dad showed his face too, I expected her to drop the call, but she didn't. She missed me, that's what she said, and my heart leap in joy, realizing that she missed me the same way I missed her.I started feeling guilty, I would have fought harder, I would have stood my ground and told my mum that I have to talk to her. The way she sobs made my heart melt. I never wanted to see her cry, it was one thing I have failed to do and I regretted it. I will make it up to her.I felt my adrenaline raise when she jumped up at me. I was sur

    I pretend not to see the confusion on her face when she sees me. I focus on the beautiful dinner gown she wore. It was one of the nicest, decent, party cloth I have seen anyone wear. She put on a long dinner gown, I watched as the remnants drag on the floor as she walked. I know she will not get her eyes off me, so I continued admiring her dress in my mind. I held my glass up to my lips while rotating my eyes around her figure. In no time, she was already in front of us. I try to put up a smile when I finally lifted my eyes to her face.“Hey, guys,” she said when she settled on one of the chairs. “Thank you for finding time to attend our dinner party.” she acted professionally, I didn’t expect her to be that calm when she sees me with the man she had mentioned to be her fiancée. But she didn’t fail to keep her eyes on Lucas, always smiling and adjusting her dress. She looked at him as if she needs approval or a verbal appreciation, and Lucas in turn kept locking eyes with her, but nev

    Everyone seems to be watching him, quietly expecting what he will come up with. He still wasn’t saying anything. He looked relaxed as ever. Why Catherine said that I had no idea. Perhaps he wanted to see what Lucas would do when she used my name as a point of attraction. “I have not prepared for this, and I don't like being taken unaware. My COO is not with me, and I can't imagine myself drafting out an opening speech now. Besides, I believe that the organizers of the event should give an opening speech. However, I can donate if my name is mentioned again.” his hand was still on the table. I looked at his face, expecting him to look back as usual, but he never looked in my direction. “That’s true, I think you should open the event, Catherine, tell us the purpose of the event and I believe Mr. Lucas will have enough time to draft out a closing remark.” Sir Mark Chimed in at once. “Alright then, I will go open the event, you know I have blood for this business, it’s my passion and m

    Helen At this point, the joy lingers in the air. Everyone was smiling, I took time to look at their faces, except for Catherine. She was not smiling, her gaze was all over me. I could faintly see the anger in her mind. She was the only person that looked out of place, and I knew it was because of me. I wouldn’t let her spoil the joy I have already established in my heart since morning. I lifted my hands for another drink and the waiter came immediately. I had this constant feeling of thirst with every glass of wine I took. It seems the more I drink, the more thirsty I become. “That’s enough, you have had enough.” I knew the voice, I don’t need to be told that he has been watching me. Perhaps he has been counting the number of glasses. “Alright, just this last time,” I replied while looking at his face. At this point, Lucas became a human Angel. I beat my lower lips as every power in me succumbed to his beautiful, soothing voice. I wanted to jump at him and looked at his beautiful

    HelenI felt my eyes tickled as the feelings hurt me. The tears keep rolling, If only he knew how much my heart yearned for him. Does he even care? “Answer me please, do you….” he didn’t let me say the word. I watched as his index finger move slowly to my lips. I jerk under his soft touch. Then, accompanied was his thumb finger, He caressed my lips gently, and I shut my eyes to feel every movement of his soft hands. Swiftly, he wrapped his hands around my waist and drew me closer to his chest. I heard his racing heart, drumming like a war drum and threatening to burst out. I moved my gaze to his face, all shades of affection. I could feel his body movement and the strong smell of his Calonge as he gently leaned toward my face. The moment I was waiting for, I tightened my eye lip and opened my heart, and my hands wrapped around his waist as he pined his thin lips on mine.The passion was there, I could feel it, we both took turns in rolling each other's lips, licking, and smacking

    Love, they say, is the sweetest thing to happen in an adult life. And so it was in my life after falling for Lucas. But it took some time as everyone else does. After the dinner night, it was like I was condemned to shyness. Looking at Luca's face was difficult as talking to him. I wished I was still myself, staying in the comfort of my company. But it was just a wish, I have been captured by Lucas, and his chains have finally found me. Now I have no choice but to just wish it didn't happen. Perhaps because it wasn't the way I thought my first time will be. All the same, I was carried away by his charm and I enjoyed the moment before now.That morning, I was still in bed thinking of the previous night. Though it was a memory I will always hold on to, it also gave me sadness deep down. I slowly opened my eyelid as his voice echoed in my head. At first, it was like a dream, but when his voice became deeper and the bed rumbled as she sat up, I realize that it wasn't a dream. He was on

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-TWOIt was a clear, beautiful morning and I woke up sound and hearty. Everything brings happiness. I didn't need to be reminded that morning has come by, watching Lucas throw his suit on. Rather, I was reminded of that with a kiss. A soft kiss that boasts up the wife in me.I woke up to see a message from the Agency. I was informed that the deal was done with Sir Mark and I need to come over. Another win, my heart was filled with clay as I rushed through all day. I had the feeling that this would be one of my very best.I have never been on TV, so it was the right avenue to push myself into the world. Today, after breakfast, Lucas offered to pick me up for lunch after my meeting at the agency. How sweet the sound, I couldn't decline such an offer, not when the man I cherished so much had offered. I nodded with a calm I didn't feel. He smiled and squeezed my hand with his left hand. I could feel the appetite coming as I pushed the meal down my throat. I came to the agr

    After the meeting, I went to inspect the office with Catherine. From where we had the meeting with the board members to the elevator, then the office, we walked without talking at all. I wonder why she had not said a word to me. Even when I smiled at her she refused to smile back. Catherine is the type that loves talking and could barely shut her mouth with anyone. So seeing her mute got me wondering. I wanted to ask what the matter was, but her face clearly showed that she didn't want to hear a word from me.The office was very nice and spacious, I couldn't wait to tell my win to Lucas. Then I remember my mom and the house I had promised to buy her. I am certain now, I will buy her one. I am a rich celebrity model now, so I have no excuse for not buying my mum a house. It's funny that the first person that came into my mind was Lucas. Formally, with every win that I get, I was always wanting to share it with my mum. Such is life, maybe we grow with change.The office had a setting I

    HELEN POV"Why are you crying, Mr. Downell," I said between my breaths, trying to sit up."You are surely stronger than you look. I never expected this from a woman." He stretched out his hand and helped me sit up. I chuckled. "There was a fire outbreak, I saw it spread before my eyes while I was on the phone with you. It was so violent that I thought I would die. But a man came in and saved me. I need to thank him.""The man is right here, I saved you. The little witch wanted to kill you." Perplexed by his words."Did you come with a chopper?" I watch him gently."And who is the little witch that intends to kill me? I believe I was careless with the gas cooker. I must have forgotten to turn it off after heating the water." "After the incident, there was an investigation. Every room was searched and a gallon of fuel was found in Catherine's room. The police even saw your room card in her purse. She set the room ablaze to kill you." My mouth widened, and a rush of chill ran down my s

    Helen POV" You should have called before you came," Lucas said as he poured glasses of wine."Can't I surprise my husband again?" He smirked and handed over one of the glasses to me."You keep making me dismiss meetings. The point is I can't focus while you're waiting." A wry smile escaped my mouth. He sounded sweet and sexy. "It's not my fault then, you are probably drunk on love." I teased curling up my legs. He ran his hand over his face before revealing a beautiful smile. Watching him smile like that was rare, but trust me it was remarkable. I don't know Lucas as someone who could indulge in conversations that require teasing. But here he is smiling at it wholeheartedly."Well, I couldn't go home since mum is always busy with cooking. So I decided to stop by and share with you the good news I heard in the office today." Lucas's eyes lit and he rested on his chair."Alright then, I'm all ears." "It's about the Oscars, Catherine told me I should be expecting not less than 8 award

    Helen POVI opened my eyes to a familiar sight and a chuckle escaped my mouth. I thought everything and everywhere would all be painted white, my garments white and my shoulders would grow wings. I closed my eyes, sucked in a deep breath as I sprayed my legs over the soft hospital bed. I had longed for heaven but it seems it's way far from me."Good morning." A soothing voice whispered behind me. A rush of adrenaline flushes through my system. I knew the voice. It was also familiar. I didn't know if I was thrilled to hear his voice again but I was certain that something inside me wanted to go back to sleep."Aren't you going to at least answer?" The then whispered voice sounded cold again. "Good morning, Lucas," I answered with my eyes still closed. Then the memories came in like wildfire. I remembered a vague gunshot, the bubbles, and the shortness of breath, all of them filled my head that instant. I sat up and flicked my eyes to clear the thoughts as my heart continued to pound vi

    The anger of seeing Helen in pain engulfed me, the wicked adrenaline rushed through my veins and I felt like consuming Buzz whole like a wildfire. But each time Helen cries out my heart aches. I felt weakened and broken. I have just realized yet again how much she's into me. Helen has eaten up the greater part of me and the only thing I found worthy of doing was to make her smile again. Make her free from pain, give her rest, and reunite her with her mother.It wasn't impossible, I had been trained in a paramilitary program, and I graduated from different martial arts schools. The strategy was simple, it was even fun to use it with Buzz. He's nothing but a piece that needs to be shown its place. So fixing him was not a problem.I only needed to exhibit a bit of professionalism to think out the right way to deal with him. If I pay attention to my anger like the first time, I might get shot again. I wasn't surprised when I heard Helen shout. To her, it was a shock so she needed to rea

    Helen POVStanding head to head, eyeballs to eyeballs I could feel Lucas's anger. His eyes have narrowed. That wasn't a good sign. If his anger gets over him, we all will be dead. His men were a distance away. There's no way they will reach us before Buzz men who were already on standby with their guns pointed at them pull the trigger.Tears escaped my eyes. Before me, Buzz had vowed to make sure Lucas felt the same pain he felt. With the way he held his eyes, I noticed he was dead serious. Buzz smirked and stepped backward avoiding Lucas's forehead which had almost scratched his face."You are quite brave for a man. I admire that. But your snare can not move me an inch, it can not stop the mission either." Lucas maintained a calm aura, he looked up at me and I begged him immediately to turn back and go."It's better to die alone than to die with you, Lucas. Run, please, save yourself so you can take care of my mother." Lucas's eyes became wet as he fixed his gaze on me, ignoring the

    the chain rolled to the waters. "Buzz! Lucas called out with a megaphone. The muscles in his neck stood with his hair. Buzz lifts his hand and the cage stops rolling. He grinds as he realizes that he has finally been able to control and make the mighty Lucas who has never bent a knee to anyone succumb to his voice. " Please, let them go, Buzz. Take me. Is it not me you want?" That was the first time I heard Lucas beg. I watched him break down on the floor of the floating boat. That wasn't the only thing, his voice shook like someone in deep panic. What a rare sight of Lucas. I felt his inner pain and my heart ached for him. I wanted everything to stop, I wish it was just a dream. But sadly, it was a reality that I couldn't escape from, I had to face it till the very end. At this point I was ready, I knew Buzz would not let me go without hurting me because I caused everything that Lucas did to him. But if he must kill me, he must set my mum free. At least I can joyfully die knowing

    Helen's POVMy bones ached, Buzz had pounded me, and his beatings were brief because he feared I might die and his mission to make Lucas succumb would be aborted. "You've had enough, for now, but I must apologize for not giving you the same beatings Lucas gave me." He started a cruel laugh. There was a pause when one of his men approached and whispered in his ears."Quick, cover her up and put her in the cell." He ordered before walking out of the room. Just as Buzz had ordered, one of his men immediately grabbed me by my shoulder and dragged me out of the room. It was then I knew that I was on a sailing cruise ship. The cold breeze gave me goosebumps. When I saw the water, my stomach rumbled, and I threw out chunks of what I didn't remember eating. "Filthy slut, come over here" I felt a heavy blow on my neck and I lost balance and fell to the ground. He wrapped my hair around his palm and pulled me to himself. I howled in pain but he ignored my voice. He signals another guard."Y

    The smell of antiseptic filled my nose and I opened my eyes to the sight of strange but familiar surroundings."Damn, I'm in the hospital again." I breathed out. I hated this place called the hospital. But there I was, in an automated bed, amid big machines and equipment without a clue about how I ended up there. I tried to lift my hand but I was too tired to lift it. A beeping sound kept resounding in my ears from the direction of my left hand and I looked down only to find a female hand wrapped around my chest. I gathered all the strength left in me and managed to adjust. "You're awake, you scare me. Please don't do that again." She said sobbing. I widened my eyes as I stared at my mum's pale skin. "What are you doing here?" I managed to speak and I felt a sharp crack on my neck. I groan in pain and bend my neck to one side. She raised her hand frantically. I saw the panic in her eyes and it hurt my heart."Stay still please, don't talk. I'll go get the doctor." She got up immedi

    A flash of panic hints on my face as the TV goes blind before me. I needed to do something, I can't just stand here and wait for a miracle. First, it was my mother, now it's my husband. What will happen to me If anything bad happens to them? I would have not just stayed back, had faith that Lucas could handle the deadly gang stars all by himself. Where will I start from? How will I be of help? I slide my hand into my hair as I think of what to do. I was uneasy, walking around the sitting room like a mad woman. No one would see me and not think of me that way. "What would I do if they were captured? I would find the secret place where they hid them and rescue them." I thought to myself. Now, if my thoughts are correct, how will I find the hidden place? My brain was not helping at all, the thoughts that came were negative all through."But the broadcaster said there was a shooting in Enfield, what would happen next if Lucas was shot?" I started analyzing again. "Certainly, Lucas would
