TEN in the evening Lucian’s private jet landed at Los Angeles International Airport and was parked in the hangar. Where his car is parked nearby and inside it is the new phone Jenny bought for him. He handed the new phone to Latton and said, “What are you planning to do with the old phone?” “I don’t know yet. They can’t track me down if the phone is off, can they?” “No they can’t. I’ll drive you to Fleur to take a rest, and I’ll see you tomorrow with good news.” She nods and with a gentle tone she says, “Thanks. I won’t forget everything you are doing for me.” “300,” he mumbles. She furrowed her brows and glanced at him in confusion, “What?” “This costs you an additional 300 days on top of what’s left in the 90 days.” She scoffed, “Lucian, you can’t do that. If you get married within that time, then I’ll be a mistress and I don’t want to be called like that.” He held her chin then said in a domineering tone, “You don’t make the rules my little one. The moment you accepted my of
WHEN LUCIAN arrives at work after driving Malena home, almost everyone is congratulating him. Mystified by whom spread the news about him having a baby, he called Jenny to his office and told her to investigate and let him know immediately if she found something out. The latter gladly took the task and left his office. Shortly after, he received a call from his father asking him to go to his office, which he immediately did. He enters his father’s office then asks in a curious tone, “Dad, Is there something wrong with the project?” George shook his head then said, “It’s about the news circulating. Is it true? That you are having a baby with Malena?” Lucian sat on the couch then said, “Yes.” George could feel the exhaustion and sorrow in Lucian’s words, and it concerned him, “For a person who’s having a child of his own to his long-time girlfriend. You seem…” He paused then sighs. “Unhappy. Is there something wrong?” Lucian lowered his head, “I’m not sure.” He clasped his hands the
LUCIUS frantically calls Latton’s number, but his calls cannot connect. He wanted to speak to her yesterday, but after the meeting she left the building, and until now, she hasn’t come home yet. He thought going to the office early and waiting for her arrival would be the best choice, but it was already 9am, and she hadn't arrived. “Shit!” He yelled. “I really messed up this time.” He gulped slowly then dialed Albert’s number, which was soon answered. “Do you have any news about Latton?” Albert asked with an annoyed tone. Lucius' lips trembled instantly, and he couldn’t help but touch the back of his neck and massage it. He slowly breathed out but before he could speak. He heard Albert say,“ Latton, what are you doing here?” Lucius' eyes widened in horror and he promptly disconnected the call. He then sat on Latton’s office chair while staring at his quivering hands. Meanwhile, Latton entered her father’s office, her face conveying dismay and rage. “Tell me something I don’t know, Da
LUCIAN wants to unwind and get his mind off things. He decided to utilize his days with Latton. He texted her but she did not respond. He was about to go to the 15th floor to see her when he saw a glimpse of her in one of the conference rooms. When everyone got out of the room, he was about to enter, but suddenly he heard Latton talking to someone on her phone. He missed getting a hold of the conversation, but he heard a deep male voice, and it was not a familiar one. Instead of talking to her, he secretly followed her to a restaurant where she met with a man with dark brown hair, wearing frameless eyeglasses that emphasized his deep blue eyes like art inside a canvas. His white buttoned up shirt and black pants, simple, youthful, casual, yet classy. He discreetly stole glances at them from his table that was concealed by the building pillar. He clenched his fist while staring at the two. He texted her. He saw how she stared at her phone but ignored him. He then called her, but she k
LATTON wakes up inside Lucian's room naked. She tried to move, but her body aches, everything aches. She checks herself to know why it hurts and, to her surprise, she has red markings on her arms and legs and possibly everywhere else. She can feel her insides swollen. Her mouth is dry, and she can feel stinging pain in her cheeks. She searches for Lucian, and he's not beside her. Shortly, she hears the bathroom door open. She could smell the alluring scent of sandalwood in the air. Soon her eyes caught a glimpse of him, fresh out of the shower with only a towel around his waist, the water on his hair dripping on his chiseled abdomen. Her mouth slightly ajar, she swallowed the spit that piled up in her mouth and she almost choked as it also hurt. Using all her strength while fighting the urge to jump at the stunning man in front of her, she asks him in a raspy voice, "What happened? Why does everything hurt?" He grins eerily then moves towards her. "That's your punishment for ignorin
DAYS after Malena's check-up, she starts to call different venues for her wedding and search for different stores to check various designs of wedding dresses. Despite her excitement about starting all the wedding preparations, she did not forget to call her friends, especially Melisa, to give her the good news and to spread the word throughout the entire Caldwell Incorporated that Lucian Caldwell was about to get married. Aside from that, she starts calling the Caldwell residence where she spoke to Alicia about finally becoming Mrs. Caldwell. She was taunting her soon-to-be mother-in-law by saying in a sarcastic tone, “Years, I’ve waited and endured everything. You can’t stop us now from getting married. I’m pregnant and there’s nothing you can do about it.” Alicia was perplexed about how vile of a person Malena really is, and before she could react to her claims she disconnected the call. Alicia, sat down and held her chest. She doesn’t like how Malena spoke to her and if what she sa
===WARNING: THIS EPISODE CONTAINS AN UNSETTLING SCENE (light Dom/Sub BDSM scene)=== “I want to go home.” Latton asked pleadingly to Lucian. “Sure, but you need to do a certain task first,” he states. She frowns then says, “No, I don't want to.” She stood up and ran past him out of his room down to the corridor, but before she could reach the stairs, he caught up to her and grab her. She fights back, "Lucian! Let me go," she said as she tried to escape from his grasp, when suddenly, he let go of her hands and held her by the shoulder and shook her. "No, don't you ever say that." He roared in anger, his voice deep and dangerous. He saw the fright in her eyes, and he heaves deeply, calms himself, then says in a deep husky voice, “Stop resisting. You know you can’t overpower me, you're just hurting yourself.” She nods, lowers her head and accepts her fate. He hugged her, nuzzled her neck, then carried her on his shoulder back to the room where he lay her on the carpeted floor, "Give
LUCIAN and GEORGE hurriedly entered the house and searched for Alicia in the kitchen, but she was not there. "Alicia, where are you darling?" George yelled, his voice expresses immense concern. Shortly after, they heard her voice muttering the words, "Oh my god!" Lucian's face immediately turned pale as if someone poured ice-cold water on him, when he realizes his mother's voice came from upstairs. His mind was racing, legs and hands trembling, "No!" "NO!" "NO!" "Please not in there." He mumbled under his breath as he ran swiftly to his room, his father following behind him. Meanwhile, Latton's face turned white as a ghost, her eyes widened in horror as she stared back at Alicia. Shaken to her core, she jolted her body so hard that the candle fell on the floor. Fortunately, it did not burn her or cause a fire. She wants to break out of her binds and hide in the closet or at least cover herself, but her bounds are tight, and she can barely move. She could only wish that she coul
