Sinful Desire. Chapter 125: A True Friend.
Catherine's POV. As Natasha pulled up in front of their house, I couldn't shake the feeling of chaos consuming me. It was as if my entire existence was unraveling before my eyes, and I was powerless to stop it. How has this information gotten out? Whoever was responsible had shattered the life I'd painstakingly built over the years with just one piece of news.Journalists had swarmed us as we drove to this place, their questions and cameras overwhelming. If it hadn't been for Natasha's quick thinking and skilled driving, I might still be trapped amidst their relentless pursuit and stupid questions. But amidst the chaos in my life right now, different questions echoed in my mind: What should I do now? How could I possibly begin to untangle this mess? And where was Lucas in all of this? He should have been here, by my side, facing this together. But his absence only added to my sense of dread. Has something happened to him? Was he okay?"Cathy darling?" Natasha's voice broke through m
Sinful Desire. Chapter 126: Some Moments...
Catherine's POV. "Sweetheart, look how pale you've become." Natasha's mother said immediately I stepped into the dinning room. I had tensed up but immediately I saw the care in her eyes. I wanted to break down and cry but I kept a straight firm face and smiled at her. "Good morning ma'am." I mumbled, my heart beating so hard and if one could have probably paid close attention, they would have heard the loud beating of my heart. I feel so alone right now. "My sweet child... Look what the bad ones have done to you."Before I could even process her response, she closed the distance between us in a heartbeat, enveloping me in a hug so tight it felt like she was trying to squeeze away all the pain I carried inside. It was a hug unlike any I'd ever experienced from a woman before, a gesture of maternal warmth I had long yearned for but never dared to hope for cause I know that I would never get it no matter how much I hope for it. Frozen for a fleeting moment because of the unexpected
Sinful Desire. Chapter 127: Ex Mafia Don
Catherine's POV. "Thank you so much for everything Mrs Adam." Lucas appreciated Natasha's Mom after I finished narrating what had happened. Turning to Natasha, he continued, "And you, Natasha, your effort in keeping her safe means the world to me. I truly appreciate it." Natasha's cheeks flushed crimson, a hue so vibrant it seemed to paint the room. It was the first time I had seen her blush so intensely, I knew my bestie had a huge crush on my Lucas. She had told me numerous times but she was equally afraid of him. Weird combo but funny. "It's the least we could do for you," Mrs. Adams chimed in, her voice brimming with warmth. "You've been a tremendous help to our family, and this is our humble way of saying thank you for everything." Leaning into Lucas's comforting presence, I rested my head on his shoulder, relishing the solace he brought, it really felt good to have him here. I want to question him about his whereabouts all these while but I guess it was best I let him f
Sinful Desire. Chapter 128: Lauren's Games.
Catherine's POV. Two weeks later. A low sigh escaped me as I stared at the kids playing happily, despite the chaos in my life, they were a beautiful reason for me to smile. It's been over two weeks since the scandalous event and nothing has been the same again, it seems as if the world was after me. I can't watch any news channel again, my phone seems like a disease to me because any time I tap it open, I would see something that would make me cry, something that would hurt every part of me. And school? School's a farce now, I attempt going to school but nothing was working out, I'm being haunted for having an affair with my ex boyfriend's dad, I was being bullied and when Lucas found out, he went to warn them but the school management had said some bullshit that made Lucas beat the living hell out of some of them, he had fired a lot of people, some students were expelled on his order. School feels like a mockery now. I try to go, but it's as if I'm walking through a minefield. T
Sinful Desire. Chapter 129: Summoned.
Catherine's POV. "It's a hard time, not much of a bad time darling love. Strength is born in the crucible of adversity, and you, my dear, are forged from the strongest steel. Embrace the challenge, for within it lies the opportunity to rise, to grow, and to shine brighter than ever before." Lucas's words penetrated into my ears as I lay on his shoulder, thinking about everything that was happening. I smiled weakly, my fingers intertwining with his. "You always know just what to say, don't you, baby?" I murmured, gratitude welling up inside me for his strong support.Lucas let out a heavy sigh, his breath slow and steady. "I wish I could do more for you, darling. It's frustrating feeling so powerless, like my wings have been clipped and you have really clipped my wings, it's not fair," he confessed, his voice tinged with a hint of sadness.I chuckled softly, lifting his hand to my lips and planting a gentle kiss on his palm. "Oh, daddy, don't be silly," I teased affectionately, my h
Sinful Desire. Chapter 130: Through it all.
Catherine's POV. As I stormed out of the courtroom, my blood boiled with fury. "This is rubbish!" I exclaimed, unable to contain my frustration anymore. "How could the court be swayed by Lauren's fake evidence and the gibberish his lawyer was spouting? They think I'm incapable of raising my own kids, the same kids I've been caring for all alone during the first few years of their lives!"Lucas, the only voice of reason in my life, held me gently, urging me to calm down. But calm was the last thing on my mind. "They've hit the wrong spot this time," I seethed, my anger simmering beneath the surface. "How dare they question my credibility as a mother? I'll put that trash right in his place once we get home."Despite my seething anger, I refrained from lashing out in the courtroom. Lucas's words had soothed me, tempering my rage. But once we were back in the confines of our home, all bets were off. Lauren wouldn't escape my wrath... Not even God would help that dunce of a man from my wr
Sinful Desire. Chapter 131: Another loose.
Catherine's POV. "Thank you," I mumbled, accepting the soda from Bella's outstretched hand."You're welcome, honey," Bella replied with a warm smile.Bella had always been like an elder sister to me, a source of comfort and support in times of need. Despite the problem I was facing, I couldn't help but feel grateful for the blessings life had bestowed upon me, including the presence of people like Bella."Do you need anything else, dear?" she asked, her eyes filled with concern as she studied my face.I returned her smile, though it felt strained. I knew she was worried about me, just as Lucas was. With the court hearing looming in just two days, tension was very high.Both parties had presented their cases, and soon the judgment would be handed down. I clung to my faith in God and in justice, praying that my children would not be taken away from me. I couldn't bear the thought of being separated from them, and I knew Lucas felt the same way. Our children were our lifeline, the very
Sinful Desire. Chapter 132: Uncertainty And Fear.
Catherine's POV. Weeks later. "I'll miss you, I'll miss you so much," I whined, my voice trailing off as I escorted Lucas out of the room, his briefcase in my hand. He chuckled softly, pausing in his steps before gently pushing me against the wall. My heart raced as he gazed at me with an expression full of love, my toes tingle with this beautiful sensation that only he could bring. Leaning in, he traced my lips with his tongue, sending shivers down my spine. "You're running late," I mumbled, before succumbing to his kiss, the intensity filling me with longing as his tongue tangled with mine before exploring every depth of it. Gosh, how I love these stolen moments with him, being with him like this makes my heart flutter in nothing but pure love. Pulling away reluctantly, I managed a sad smile. "I'm going to miss you terribly. I'm already missing you already, I wanna cry.""Alright, I won't go again then. Let's stay inside, and I'll devour you raw," he joked, laughter dancing in

Sinful Desire. EPILOGUE
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
Sinful Desire. Chapter 140: The Feel Of You.
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
Sinful Desire. Chapter 139: A Fairytale.
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
Sinful Desire. Chapter 138: What We Deserve.
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
Sinful Desire. Chapter 137: His Home.
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.

Sinful Desire. Chapter 136: Burial.
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
Sinful Desire. Chapter 134: The Heirs.
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
Sinful Desire. Chapter 133: Death.
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
