His Defiant Bride Decision
Thea slowly opened her eyes wincing as the light hit them outright making her wince. She shifted in her bed then turned around to the side before sitting up wondering why she had forgotten to close the curtains. The killer headache she was suffering from was her answer. She shouldn’t have drunk that much last night. Last night… The thought hit her like a fully speeding truck leaving her stunned for a moment as memories of last night flooded her already-addled brain. “What… What did I do…” She mumbled as she sat on bed her hair curtaining her face as she leaned forward covering her face with both her palms in deep despair. As soon as she closed her eyes again, she could see it. Lucian’s face as it drew close to her. His disheveled appearance as he smiled down at her and licked his lips looking thoroughly pleased. The way his hand traced up and down her body. How his fingers tangled into her hair and grazed her ears ever so slightly as he pulled her further into his embrace. Thea
His Defiant Bride New possibilities
“Hey… I know I’m the one who suggested this. But isn’t it a bit too much?” Lucian asked as he looked up from the desk looking at them.“Shut up,” Thea and Haden said at the same time and Pen simply sighed.They were busy sorting through the preparations for the orientation fair they organized to select scholarships and members for the project. It had been three hours since they started this mess and it didn’t look like it was going to be over anytime soon.“When I talked about impartiality I only meant that we should really choose the talented people. But this is too much,”“You’re the one who didn’t trust our system to choose who those are going to be,” Pen said her voice irritated, “We are merely doing what you suggested so please shut up and move your hands,” She added and both Haden and Lucian flinched,“She just told me to shut up,” Lucian whispered to her and Thea sighed as she stood up.“I’m making some tea. Who wants some?” She asked.“I would love some coffee,” Lucian said.“
His Defiant Bride Awkward Lunch Break
“Well… that’s not something I hadn’t expected, but I never expected to find out like this…” Pen said with a sigh as she sat down beside Thea that night in her house.They’d all opted to go back home after that incident leaving the awkwardness of their moment to be forgotten.“Tell me about it. I knew you were pretty open about anyone finding out but this is definitely the first time I’m falling into such an awkward situation with you like this.” She said with a smile and Pen sighed.“We just got swept in the moment. Haden is unexpectedly… Passionate…” Pen mumbled and Thea laughed.“Woah! I really want to hear more about that,” Thea said and Pen sighed.“What I want to hear about is you and Lucian. Although Peter told me that he set you two up, I didn’t think that you were already going out!” She exclaimed and Thea almost winced. She really didn’t want to tell Pen anything about her and Lucian. Because then she’d have to lie to her.“I don’t know how to say it… we just decided on it t
His Defiant Bride Change of Plans
“You seem to be deeply mistaken about something, Professor Pierce,” The dean said looking at Robert through his glasses with the same amused smile he had earlier, except for the cold glint in his eyes, Thea would have never detected his anger.“Pardon?” Robert asked as he looked back at the dean seeming startled by his interruption.“Hearing you talk like this, Mr Salvator might think that our university takes this project as a joke,” He said with the same smile and a chill ran down Thea’s spine.Yupp, her grandfather was angry.“Not at all, I’m already aware of how hard the university is working to accommodate to our selfish requests,” Lucian said with a smile not letting go of Thea’s hand as he intertwined their fingers again.“I’m sure that hiring Thea must make Professor Pierce anxious too. Since he wasn’t there for her thesis and the beginning of her career,” Her grandfather said.The first reference to her thesis made Thea’s heart tighten for a moment. They rarely ever talked ab
His Defiant Bride Moving On
“Are you going to keep avoiding me forever?” Peter asked through the voicemail and Thea sighed.It had already been a few days since their money crisis peacefully ended and she was wondering how she was going to explain the anonymous donor to him. Peter was a sharp person, very fit for his position as a lawyer and very good with remembering details. She was wondering how long it would take him to figure out that Lucian was the one who donated that money.There was no way that she was going to tell him that this was a contractual relationship between them and that this was her compensation for marrying him. Peter would flip if he hears that.She even sacrificed going to see her student’s faces when they learn about their scholarships. Now she had been sulking all week while still frustrated about what happened with Lucian and Robert the other day.Seriously. Why was her life so messy these days… She needed an equilibrium. And she was pretty sure that there was no way she was going to f
His Defiant Bride Begining of a Misunderstanding
“Well, well, if it isn't Lucian Salvator… Long time no see…” Lucian heard a singsong voice behind him say before a rand rested on his shoulder.It took a bit of effort to tamp down his annoyance at being interrupted at such an important moment.“Hello, Colleen. How have you been,” He asked turning around to look at the woman shaking her hand casually.But Colleen wasn’t looking at him. Her eyes were on Thea with a vulture flesh eating smile as she looked her up and down.Thea looked back at the woman with a blank expression as if she was waiting for her to finish her appraisal so that she can move along. Lucian wanted to smile as Colleen, who was known to illicit jealous stares from women wherever she went. Today, she was completely ignored by Thea.“It has! I missed you so much at our usual place. You don’t come anymore!” She whined.Awkwardly, Lucian wondered if there was anyone listening around them. Whoever hears them, would think that something was going on between them while the

His Defiant Bride Just Look At Me
Thea looked down at her phone as she tried to remain calm. Flipping a lock of her hair back behind her ear, she looked back up at her grandfather who was still busy talking to Peter.“… I think that this will work out better for you than before,” Her grandfather said and Peter nodded.“Relying on one main source of income was too risky. I guess we had it coming. It was bound to happen,” Peter answered and Thea wanted to sigh.She had no idea how Peter always managed to have a normal conversation with her grandfather. She had such a hard time just getting him to listen to her…“What do you think we should do about the day of the event?” Peter asked.“I think we should leave this to the school committee and Chim&Bio’s PR team. They will come up with a date for the event,” Thea answered looking into her email box another time. This time skipping over the message that left her too shocked to talk and going straight to the email she was looking for in the first place.As soon as she found
