Catherine's POV.

Lucas' breath fanned my neck and all my cells suddenly became more conscious of him, my body screamed for his closeness, for his touch, for his mouth... For every part of him but he didn't offer any, I just felt his heavy breath.

I couldn't move for fear of what would happen, my hold on the couch deepened and my fingers began to hurt badly.

"Lu.. Lucas..." I whispered his name and inhaled sharply, his scent filling me and I can't help but wish that something else of his should fill me like that. I just want him, I don't care about logic or anything, I want this man to touch me.

"Are you alright, red hair?" He whispered into my ear and I reacted by holding the couch harder. If I'm not careful, I'm gonna have broken nails or I might end up tearing the leather off the couch.

"I'm... I'm... Oh, Lord... Please..." I stuttered, unable to think straight like a normal human being. I felt cornered with nowhere to run, even if there was anywhere to run to, I was not running!

    "How are you feeling now?" He asked as he progressed towards me, his eyes fixed on me and every jerky movement I made. "I...I'm, I think I'm..." I stuttered, breathing heavily, I suddenly felt exposed and I was quick to pull my dress down, my heart beating so fast I thought it would leap out of my mouth. "I'm sorry." He said gently, taking a seat on the chair beside me and God was I not surprised.What's he sorry for?I should be apologizing for using him in a very inappropriate way... What was I thinking?!We stared at each other for the fewest seconds before he ripped his eyes away from me. He looked towards my bedside table, extended his long arm, took the baby's bottle filled with water, and extended it to me, "Here, take this, you'll be fine." He muttered and I cleaned the beads of sweat on my forehead before taking the water bottle from him. With eyes still on him, my heart increasingly beat by the second, I began fumbling with the bottle cover, my whole body was shaking and

  • Sinful Desire.    Chapter 18: Classless.

    Catherine's POV. Some weeks later. "Why's everyone so busy?" I mused the question to myself as I stepped out of the elevator, skimming around. The servants were everywhere, holding one thing or the other, the house looked beautiful too. Not like it wasn't beautiful before but it looks exquisite now because of the decorations. "Mmmmm... What an aroma." I murmured as I perceived the smell of the delicious food that was coming from the kitchen. My stomach grumbled and I yawned, I had just woken up from a nap and I was starving so bad, extremely bad. Taking in a deep breath of the beautiful aromatic scent, I began to head towards the kitchen, nodding to the hasty greetings of the servants passing by. I'll have asked them what's up but they'll not be able to give me the accurate answer that Bella would give me. Bella would definitely be in the kitchen, she's one of the major cooks around here. My stomach let out an angry roar because of the scent my nose was perceiving and I hastene

  • Sinful Desire.    Chapter 19: Classy.

    Catherine's POV. "You look beautiful, Cathy." Bella praised my looks as the girls finished with their job. Lucas had insisted that they help me dress, it was weird because I've not been treated like this before, it felt very odd sitting idly while someone just decks you up. It's odd but feels good."Thank you, Bella." I mused, unable to think straight, I'm yet to see myself in the mirror and that alone was getting me worried, it was an unnecessary anxiety but I couldn't help it. "You're all set miss, do you need anything else?" One of the girls asked, looking at me with a smile and I returned the smile nervously. "No, thank you all so much for helping," I muttered and they both gave me a light nod before they walked out of the room. "You really look beautiful Cathy, I always knew you were a goddess." Bella complimented again and I sighed as I gave her a weary smile, this woman had no idea the kind of chaos running in my head right now. "Are you alright, milady?" She asked calm

    Catherine's POV. "Catherine, where are you from?" A female voice asked and I frowned.Why can't everyone just eat their fucking dinner and get out?!I looked up from my food in the direction of the woman that just asked me a question and I gave her a forceful smile before replying, "I'm from a small town in Italy." I have no idea where I am from, I don't know my family, I stayed with a woman who claimed to be my aunt and I ran away from her when she wanted to turn me into a s.ex slave."That's interesting, I never knew the Leonard's family was from Italy." She said, her eyes still fixed on me and I guess she was still expecting an answer so I decided to give her one.With a soft chuckle, I muttered, "Well, now you know."I heard a soft chuckle from someone though I don't know who but I think the woman found my reply rude because her expression turned ugly but I couldn't care less as I went back to playing with my food.I could see Lauren's angry stare from the corner of my eyes and

    Catherine's POV. I let the tears that had blinded me fall as I neared my room... I felt ridiculous, worthless, and unwanted. Well, I was always unwanted but today seems so obvious and real, all those secure walls I've built around myself came crashing down in shattered pieces as the hot tears cascaded down my cheeks. I opened my door and banged it shut angrily, the shoes were beginning to hurt my toes so I kicked them off and they flung in different directions, "I should... I shouldn't have gone there, I shouldn't have." I sobbed and fell on the floor with a soft thud, raised my legs, and rested my chest on them as I began to cry hard again."Fvck you, Lauren, fvck you for everything you used your stupid mouth to say about me...you..." I inhaled sharply and let out a raspy breath, "You're... You're a pathetic loser." I wailed hard and my chest felt compressed the more, utter devastation pulsed through my veins because the pain I was in was slowly consuming and making me sick. The so

    Catherine's POV. "I don't regret inviting you down to dinner but you disappointed me." He let out after a few seconds of ghost silence."Huh?" I mused as I turned to look at him, "What did I do?" I asked and my brain began to think of a hundred and thousands of reasons he'll be disappointed in me. What did I do to displease him? "Guess." He muttered with a half smile that didn't even reach his face. I tilted my head back and sniffed in before saying, "I stink at guessing, just tell me what you want to tell me, what did I do that displeased you?" "You're really no fun, Cathy." He said and I wanted to slap myself. Maybe that would bring me back to reality because this man was making me feel weird... Is this real? Lucas just told me I'm no fun, does he know the right definition of no fun? I'd have gladly told him if he asked because no fun was right in front of me. "Hello..." He said, snapping his finger on my face and I looked up at him, "You're looking lost, what's up?" He asked

    Catherine's POV. "But I kept mute because I don't wanna ruin your dinner." I defended my actions."And when did I plead with you not to ruin my dinner?" He asked back and I opened my eyes wide in surprise, my lips parted to bring out words but I was speechless. "Answer me Red hair, did I ask you to keep mute and watch other people ridicule you, call you names? Did I?" He asked again and I sighed, totally stunned by the new turns.I'm entirely surprised by this new man sitting in front of me, talking to me with respect, "I just don't want to ruin things, people believe that I ruin lots of things so... I don't even know what to do, I'm just surprised right now." I expressed sincerely, astonished and unable to truly understand whatever was going on. "I know how hard life has been with you Catharine, but I want you to trust yourself, trust those invisible scars you've earned in the process of all the struggles you've been through in life, trust your experience, and don't let anyone bel

    Catherine's POV. "That smells delicious, thank you so much, Bella, thanks a lot," I enunciated in excitement and Bella just smiled as she dropped the plate of cake on the table. "You did most of the baking, now let's hope and pray that the master is pleased by it. I wonder what you did that made him so mad, he hardly gets mad." She said and I was quick to move towards the refrigerator to get a drink that would go with the cake. "You don't have to talk about it, just know that master Lucas is a very nice man, he's temperamental and has his bad traits like every human but he always puts his family first, you're extremely lucky to have his favor, in a real sense, you're blessed because he seems interested in you." She added and I blushed as I took the drink I needed.It feels good to hear her say those things about Lucas and how lucky I was to find favor in his eyes. I feel extremely lucky yet I'm apprehensive. I acted rudely to him three days ago and there's no second that passes whe

    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

  • 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

    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

  • 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

    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
