Sinful Desire. Chapter 21: Always a baby.
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
Sinful Desire. Chapter 23: Angered.
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
Sinful Desire. Chapter 24: To Appease Him.
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
Sinful Desire. Chapter 25: A Larger Blunder.
Catherine's POVI looked up at him firmly and squarely, squinted my eyes, summoned my powerful voice, and declared, "MR. LUCAS LEONARD, I WANT TO SPEAK TO YOU RIGHT NOW AND YOU SHALL LISTEN." His frown deepened and I could see him from the corner of my eyes dropping the book he was holding, then slowly but steadily, he began to take meaningful strides towards me and all my boldness evaporated because I began to take shaky steps backward. I moved backward till my back hit something solid... Oh no, not this awkward position again! His finger lifted my chin and I stared at his deep blue, his Cologne was intoxicating me and it would only be a matter of time before I'd pass out... I should have left when he told me to... I should have because I'm not ready to handle this intoxicating enigma. "What did you say, Red Hair?" He asked, his breath fanning my face and I could almost taste the coffee he took. "Not...nothing..." I stuttered and his frown deepened, he closed the gap between us,
Sinful Desire. Chapter 26: Pardoned At Last.
Catherine POV. "That's... That's not what I meant Lucas, I am so sorry." I muttered an apology but he seemed unfazed by it, it was like he didn't even hear anything I said.With a dark chuckle, he asked me again, "What made you think that I'm treating you like Lauren, Catharine?" He asked and I gulped down an empty air to stay sane. "I told you I'm sorry, it was a slip of the tongue, I was angry at you and you wouldn't even listen to whatever I have to say, all you do is give me that intimidating look and I'll lose every proficiency to think," I said in a breath and he creased his brow."What?" He said in what seemed like confusion but I wasn't buying anything, Lucas can't be confused."Yeah, I can't think straight when you're so close to me, you drive me nuts with insane silly thoughts and that masculine scent of yours sent me into a world I don't know..." I paused to take a sharp raspy breath,"You don't understand, you don't know how you make me feel, you don't know how your snob
Sinful Desire. Chapter 27: A Gift.
"Red hair..." He breathed out my name and I moved closer to him, those alluring lips calling to me. "Lucas..." I muttered his name and those lips unfurled into a smile that made my heart somersault. "What do you want, Red hair?" He asked in a hoarse voice and I blinked rapidly.What do I want?You, Lucas... I just want you... You.But instead of saying what's in my head, I just stared at him... Waiting for him… waiting for him to do the needful but he just stared at me too."I'm sorry if my action hurt you, Catherine, I'm so sorry." He mussed and he began to lower his head towards mine. That insane part of me that had wanted more jumped up in happiness.My eyes drifted close as I waited but instead of feeling those lips on my mouth, I felt their moist warmth on my forehead. I felt disappointment surge through me but I ravish the connection of his lips on my skin. He suddenly moved away from me and I was quick to flip my eyes open to see what went wrong but I just saw those deep blu
Sinful Desire. Chapter 28: A Turn Around.
Three Weeks Later. Catherine's POV. "So this is Lilian, she's the new nanny that would watch Leo and Laurel while you school. I've employed her full service so she'll be staying here always." Lucas introduced the girl he'd brought home.My heart swells with happiness because this man was doing so much for me, "It's nice to meet you, Lilian, my name is Catharine." I said with a smile, extending my hand to the girl.She took the hand with a smile,"It's a pleasure to be here ma'am and I hope my service will make you satisfied." She said with a bowed head and I sighed.All these formalities are driving me nuts but I'm helpless because no matter how many times I correct them, they'll still say it over and over again so... I give up. "Come dear, I'll show you to your room," Bella said and the girl took a slight bow before leaving with her. Turning to look at Lucas whose eyes were fixed on his laptop, I let out, "Thank you for everything you're doing for me but is this really important?"
