Catherine's POV."What the fuck is wrong with you?! How could you do something so stupid?! Did you see the rubbish your action caused? Look at the news, Lauren, fucking look at the newspaper!" Lucas suddenly roared as he slapped the newspaper on the table, pacing. I could see that he was trying to control his anger."Chill, Dad. It can't be that bad," Lauren said casually, and I sighed lightly. Lauren way the most insane human I've ever seen. "You appeared out of nowhere and decided to do something dramatic! How did I birth a son like you?" Lucas huffed, running his fingers through his hair as he brought out his phone.Lauren relaxed in his chair, seemingly unaffected by his father's rage. "Relax, Dad. It's not the end of the world," he said with a careless shrug, his tone dripping with nonchalance.I shot him a dagger look before turning to look at the furious Lucas. I was equally nervous about the whole situation. After what happened at the party last night, I knew the media would
Catherine's POV. "I hate that boy, he's so fucking immature, I wish I had kicked him when I had the chance!" Natasha huffed as we sat in the cafeteria but I just signed, trying to think straight and make sense of the new development in my life. She was still fuming over what Lauren did and any time she saw something relating to it on social media, her anger would renew. "What's the plan to deal with that animal in human clothing? It's seriously getting on my nerves, in every possible way," she exclaimed, her frustration evident in her tone. I let out a heavy sigh, feeling the weight of the situation pressing down on me. "I'm trying to figure it out, Nat," I replied, my mind racing to find a solution to the latest twist in my already complicated life.I'm in a mess and I know it but how to roll out of the mess was hard. Lucas was furious and he was trying hard to control himself. I see that in him and I've tried all I can to calm him down but Lauren was not making things easy. He
Catherine's POV. I stood up, frozen in disbelief, Natasha's voice broke through my stunned silence. "What... What the hell does he think he's doing?" she asked and that was the exact question swirling in my mind. I tried to respond, but words failed me. All I could do was watch as Lauren approached, surrounded by a group of people bearing gifts of all kinds; ranging from bouquets of flowers, gift boxes, cakes and the most surprising one; a beautiful flower statue that was created to look just like me. My eyes were drawn to Lauren, dressed impeccably in a tuxedo, his demeanor exuding confidence and charm. Despite my shock, I couldn't deny his cuteness, though it paled in comparison to Lucas. Lucas, with his strength, built, maturity, and the way his deep blue eyes always stirred something within me. Lauren was nothing like him, and the sight of him filled me with a mix of disgust and curiosity.. "Hello my beautiful beauty." Lauren said proudly as he halted his procession in front of
Lucas's POV. As I watched Catherine hurriedly make her way towards me, my heart clenched with a mixture of worry and anger. The sight of Lauren, my own son, attempting to woo Catherine back after all the pain he had caused her, ignited a fire within me that threatened to consume everything in its path. I wanna deal with him but I'm holding back because of her and her kids. I don't want to cause any drama in her life, she's just climbing the Hall of Fame and I won't do anything to disrupt her goals. "Red," I called out as she reached me, her eyes darting nervously toward the car parked nearby. "Are you alright?"She nodded, but I could see the lies in her eyes. She was in confusion and I wish I could sort out everything but Lauren is an idiot, a very idiotic human who would do anything to satisfy his male ego. As we got into the car, I couldn't shake the feeling of anger bubbling in me. How dare Lauren show his face here after all this time? How dare he think a few apologies and gr
As we pulled into the compound, Lucas's breath was ragged, and his cum was deep inside my system, the taste still lingering on my tongue as I shot him a mischievous grin that only seemed to widen his smile."You little devil, you're something else, seriously!" He gasped between breaths, his chest heaving, but I couldn't help but chuckle in response.I never knew it would be so fun to torture him. I had sucked him so badly. Whenever he was about to cum, I'd decrease my movement, and gosh! His groan of frustration was such a turn-on for me. I finally decided to grant him release just as we approached our home's gate."How are you feeling, daddy?" I asked, the devilish smirk never leaving my lips as he ran his fingers through his hair, his hand then finding its way to my chin, tilting it up to meet his gaze. Leaning close, he lightly bit my lip, his touch sending a shiver down my spine."I swear, I'm going to ravage you for teasing me like that. What if I had lost control of the car?!" H
Anna's POV"And what about me, you idiot?!" I snapped, my anger boiling over at Lauren's audacity. How dare he spout such nonsense after he came here to do the contrary of what he told me?!"Anna, it's good to have you here, dear," Catherine greeted me with a smile that grated on my nerves. How could she smile as if everything was fine? She was the root cause of all this nonsense, and yet she acted as if she had done nothing wrong. I couldn't stand it. I just can't stand her anymore. I hate her so much I don't even know how to express my hatred for her.She might have achieved whatever she wanted, but I refused to sit idly by and let her steal my man. Lauren belonged to me; he was my future husband, and I wouldn't allow anyone, especially her, to take him away from me."Welcome Anna, how was your trip?" My formidable father-in-law-to-be asked, and I turned and gave him the best smile I could muster despite the raging storm inside me."It was great sir, good evening." I mumbled like a
Lauren's POV. "No. No. No. This can't happen, I can't lose, I can't afford to lose and I would do anything to get that thing back to me. With her by my side, my business would grow, many people would sort me out, I need to get her and I would get her by hook or crook. I don't fucking care if she's fucking the whole men in the he world, I just want what would benefit me." Letting out a loud sigh, I paced around my room, trying to think of ways to bring Catherine into my business. With Catherine, I would become a billionaire, I can venture into the hospitality industry by opening my own restaurant chain or luxury hotel. This could involve overseeing multiple restaurant locations worldwide, she would design menus, ensuring consistent quality across all establishments, and shaping the overall culinary experience for guests. She's so young and so talented, we could.... Fuck! I need to get things together, I need that woman. The business my father gave me was at the verge of bankruptcy a
Catherine's POVA few weeks later.Stepping out of the car, my eyes scanned the number of cars that were packed outside the mansion, and my eyes widened. Turning to Henry, who had brought me home, I asked, "Why are there so many cars here? Is everything alright?""Yeah, everything is great. The boss's family and a few close friends came to visit," he replied with a smile before driving away.There were different varieties of cars, and I admired them as I walked in. Lucas knew my obsession with cars, and he had wanted to get me one last week when I was literally drooling over a car, but I had kindly rejected the offer. I think I'm okay with him or Henry picking me up from school. I had told Natasha, and she nearly killed me because she tagged me as mad for rejecting such a tempting offer."Welcome, ma'am," one of the servants greeted. I returned the smile, my eyes still scanning the scene before me.I'll definitely get a nice ride, but not now. I wanted to graduate from the academy fir
Lucas's POV. I felt a rush of affection as I watched my Red, her nervous energy evident in the way she fidgeted with her wedding band. Despite her annoyance, I couldn't help but find her adorable and beautiful. "What's funny?" she snapped, catching me with a smile plastered on my face. I quickly tried to compose myself, not wanting to upset her further."Um, nothing," I replied, attempting to hide my grin. "Just thinking about how lucky I am to have the most beautiful woman in the world as my wife."She scoffed, her frustration evident as she rubbed her stomach. "Chill, baby. The doctor will be here soon for the ultrasound. You'll be fine, and the baby too."I leaned closer, planting a gentle kiss on her cheek, but her mood remained sour. "This isn't funny. I'm feeling strange and funny, but it's not funny," she complained, her tone tinged with worry."Don't worry, Mrs. Leonard," I reassured her, taking her hand in mine. "You'll be just fine. Calm down. You don't want the baby to be
Catherine's POV. I stepped out of the bathroom, relieved after a nice hot shower. I'm glad to be less busy again. I've taken a break from work, school's done and Lucas is mine for the taking. I was about to take another step when a hand grabbed me, pulled me and my body connected with a solid naked chest. "Lucas... What are you doing here? We agreed on tonight." I let out a whine as he buried his nose on my neck, sniffing me and making some murmurs I couldn't quite understand. "Well, I can't wait that long, I'm starving and I want you right now, I've got to have you baby. When last did we have a good fuck?" He asked as he began to suck my neck, his hand caressing my boob through the towel."Well, we had sex last two days." I reminded him, biting my inner cheek to stifle a moan. He chuckled and raised his head to look at me, "what we had doesn't even qualify for a quickie, you didn't allow me cum."I rolled my eyes, trying not to laugh, "Well, I was gonna miss my flight."Lucas gr
Catherine's POV. Finally, the day I've been eagerly waiting on for the past three months was here. It was my graduation day, and the academy was buzzing with celebration. The air was filled with laughter, chatter, and the distant hum of classical music. As I sat among my fellow graduates, basking in the joyous atmosphere, someone suddenly pulled me up and I was about to protest when I felt a warm breath against my ear."Congratulations on your graduation, darling, you're looking tempting and I couldn't stay far away from you," Lucas whispered, his voice tender but playful. His hand moved down, firmly grabbing my butt. My eyes widened in shock, and my mouth opened to shout, but I held back, glancing nervously around at the crowded hall.Turning to face him, I shot him a mock-angry look. "Lucas, we're in a crowded place for God's sake. Keep your hands to yourself for once!" I hissed, trying to sound stern.He grinned mischievously and gave my butt a light smack, causing my entire body
Catherine's POV. My eyes darted open lazily, and I stretched, yawning and breathing in the sweet masculine scent mixed with the scent of the car."Are you alright, baby?" His calm voice infiltrated into my ears, and my smile broadened as I raised my head from his shoulder to look at him."I'm fine... now that you're here." I pressed a light peck on his cheek, and he grabbed my head for a slow, sensual kiss that made me moan. His hand made its way to my boob and grabbed it. I bit back a moan when he rolled my hardened nipple between his fingers.Not able to take it anymore, I slapped his hand away, and he chuckled, looking at me as I struggled to gain control over my breath. "I've missed you so much, you know that, right?" He asked and drew me into a tight hug that made my body tingle."I know, baby. I miss you more. You have no idea how happy I am to have you back," I whispered back and withdrew from the hug to peck him again.He smiled, "I love you, Red. I love you so much.""And I
Catherine's POV. I staggered, but Aunt Maya held me, mumbling words I couldn't quite comprehend. My Lucas, he was alive, coming towards me. "Oh Lucas," I whispered, wanting to sprint forward and hug him tight, but I could not move, which was surprising.The crowd parted as he approached, gasps and whispers following him as he walks majestically towards us. "God!" I heard a familiar voice and turned in the direction.Lauren and Lily stood frozen, their faces a mix of shock and fear as they stared at their incoming doom. This wasn’t part of their plan. They never planned this.Without thinking about them much, I slowly returned my gaze to my incoming miracle. My sweet Lucas.He stopped a few feet away from me, his eyes locking onto mine, and I could see the sadness in them. "Red," he said, his voice strong and clear.Hearing his voice again brought goosebumps to my body, and I shivered, unable to say anything as hot tears of relief dropped from my eyes.Closing the gap between us, he u
Catherine's POV. Few days later. (At the LEO's Villa)"I'm so sorry for your lost sweetheart, I'm really sorry." Natty consoled me and I just gave her a weak smile. I'm mourning Lucas and worried sick about my children's safety. The burial would happen soon and after that, I would have to sign some fucking documents Lauren and Lily would bring, they promise to give me my kids after that. I don't know but I have this feeling that they would not let me go, they might not, they would want things to cool off first. I don't know what plans Lauren has in store for me but I know it would not be good. He had told me himself that he would... "God!" I cried, thinking of everything again.There are many people that came for the burial and I've received so many condolences from them. I'm burning and hurting inside because I couldn't bring the idiots responsible for this to justice. "Calm down darling, everything would be fine." Natasha Mom assured me but how do I tell her that nothing would
Catherine's POV. "Hello, Catherine. So good to see you again… in this pathetic condition," she grinned, sauntering toward me with an air of triumph. My heart contracted painfully at the sight of her, a deep sense of betrayal washing over me. "You... Why?" I choked out, struggling to comprehend her presence and actions. "Why would you do something like this, and with a man like him?! Do you know how evil and...""Spare me the bullshit about evil, Catherine, and let's get down to business," she snapped, cutting me off abruptly. I stared at her, unable to process the surreal nightmare unfolding before me. Lauren and her? It was unbelievable, yet here they were, united in their treachery. I wish nothing but to slash their throat and kill them now. She knew Lauren was going to kill Lucas, and she accepted it. What kind of twisted alliance was this?"Congratulations!" Her voice snapped me out of my daze, and I shot daggers at her, my heart clenching with renewed pain. "I'm sure Lauren ha
Catherine's POV. My head was heavy and aching due to the long hours of cries and screams. I don't know where I was but I know that it must be remote... Well, unless the room I was kept in was sound proof; that's the only possibility why my constant screams weren't being heard. I stopped screaming with that realization. My joints were hurting due to the restraints, the more I tried to move, the more it hurt so I accepted my fate. But the hardest part was accepting that Lucas was truly gone. The mere thought sent fresh waves of agony crashing over me, threatening to drown me in sorrow.I clung to the hope that it was all just a nightmare, a cruel trick of the mind that would vanish with the dawn and when I woke up, Lucas would be right by my side, kissing me and assuring me that everything was alright. Yet, the TV served as a relentless reminder of the harsh reality I faced. Lauren had specifically left it on, tuned to our local channel, where every broadcast seemed to hammer home th
Catherine's POV. As I struggled to regain consciousness, the sound of a faint voice penetrated the fog in my mind. It called out to me, calling me back to reality but I was too numb. "Hello... Hello, baby... Wake up, sweetheart. You don't plan to sleep forever, do you?" The voice urged me to open my eyes.Groaning softly, I forced my heavy eyelids to obey, squinting against the dim light filtering into the room. "C'mon, baby, wake up already," the voice continued, its tone playful yet impatient. "I can't stand you sleeping like this when you should be watching this fantastic news."My lips parted, but my voice was barely a whisper as I struggled to form words. "Lucas..." I managed to mumble, my throat dry and scratchy."Oh, finally awake, baby," the voice chuckled, and I frowned, the familiarity of it sending a shiver down my spine. It wasn't Lucas. Lucas' voice was always deep, reassuring and it never fails to do wonders to my body but this current voice filled me with an inexplica
