"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

    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?"

    Lucas's POV. My fist clenched hard when I saw Catherine's eyes clouded with tears and I knew that it would be a matter of time before those tears fell. She'd been strong enough, she's extremely strong and that's what I admired most about her, however, my ludicrous son has ways of always making her cry. "I'm listening, Lauren, what are you talking about?" I asked, my voice raspy. I tried very hard to resist the urge to stand up and assure my Red Hair that everything would be alright, she looked nervous, disturbed, and weary. "Dad, I'm just gonna give you a choice 'cause I'm getting tired of this silly everyday drama, she's ruining our life and her presence is putting this family in jeopardy, I'm tired of her, I'm tired of seeing her stupid ugly face here!" Lauren ranted and I rolled my eyes. I wondered what was wrong with him. "Can you go straight to the point or will you keep ranting like some madman? I don't have time for all these, Lauren, either you state what you wish to say o

    Catherine's POV. "What should I do?!" I screamed, my voice almost inaudible to my ears. The room was dimly lit, I could compare it to how I was feeling right now. My world was in a chaotic darkness. Anna was right, I had caused a rift between father and son, but I never intended to. All I wanted was the best for my children, the best that I could not have. Why do things go awfully wrong when I'm happy? I was super excited because I was about to start a new life, I was about to open a new chapter in my life and things just went wrong suddenly. I moved my butt till my back hit the bed, raised my legs to rest my head on it, and began another round of crying. I think I'm gonna skip classes tomorrow, considering the way I'm crying, I'll have those puffy eyes by morning.Class? Will I still be able to go to school? Lucas has to choose between me and his son... He's to choose between a total stranger and his blood. I already know his choice, he might say that he'll not send me packing

  • Sinful Desire.    Chapter 31: Logic Over Lust

    Lucas's POV. "Kiss me." She requested, her voice so low that it seemed almost inaudible.Kiss her? No, I can't kiss her. I've been trying to restrain myself from doing anything ludicrous ever since the first encounter. Ever since the day I saw her half naked, she'd been etched on every part of me, I've wanted her and I still do but I can't have her. She's my son's ex-girlfriend, the mother of my grandsons. I can't take advantage of her even if she's all I want and would always desire. "Lucas..." She breathed out my name and I could see those cute eyes staring at me, wanting me and fuck! I'd be lying if I said I don't want her screaming my name as I jab into her but that's unreasonable, "Please Lucas..." She added, her hand reaching for me again and I was quick to stand up, my back turned on her. "Catherine, you have to snap out of your trance, you're not emotionally stable now, that's why you're saying whatever is coming out of your mouth," I muttered, my fist clenched because I

    Catherine's POV. "Good morning ma'am," One of the servants in the house greeted me immediately I stepped out of the elevator and I nodded with a half smile.With uncertain steps, I began to head towards the kitchen hoping not to meet Anna in there. I know she's around and I've been avoiding her for the past two days. Things had been quiet for the past two days, maybe it was because I was always in my room. Thanks to the excursions of my classmates, classes have been online but that privilege will soon end because the excursions end in two weeks and I'll have to start attending lectures. I'm super excited and also nervous.As I neared the kitchen, my mouth watered and my stomach growled. I've not had my appetite for the past two days, especially after what happened between me and Lucas. I considered it stupid but I had no idea what suddenly came over me and I started longing for him, for his touch, for that kiss. I don't regret kissing and I'll do it again if any chance is given bec

    Catherine's POV. A few weeks later. "You got all you need, huh?" Lucas asked as I stepped out of his car and I smiled before nodding."Yeah, I got everything, thank you," I replied, the smile still playing on my face.He'd insisted on dropping me off today, the driver always does but he wants to do it today and words can't tell how badly I value it. "Alright, good luck, if you need anything, let me know, copy?" He asked and I nodded again."Words, Red hair, words." He said and sighed.Yeah, words. I always tend to forget that. "Copy, dah-dy," I said with a smirk and he looked taken aback by my response but he was quick to shake it off."Alright, bye, and have fun." He said, whining up the glass of his car and speeding off. I watched the image of his red Rolls-Royce Ghost disappear, my chest bubbling with immense happiness. Lucas has a thing for red color and for the first time in my miserable life, I love my hair color. I've been acting flirty with him for weeks now and he always

    Catherine's POV. I shot my head up angrily and looked at the man, the same man that was standing in front of us. I tried to wriggle my way out of his hold but I couldn't because he held me captive by the waist, "What is wrong with you?!" I asked angrily but he only smirked."Consider this your lucky day, darling." He said and before I could curse him, he grabbed my head and smashed his lips into mine. I stiffened when his lips tongue tried to make its way into my mouth. I could hear loud cheering, lots of cheering and the sound of clicking pictures resonated in my ears. I struggled against him but he was unwilling to let me go and it seems like the more I struggle, the harder his lips become against mine, his teeth biting my lips. I could not even move, his hand held my two hands captive. There was no way I could escape his torturous kiss without hurting him, so without even thinking twice, my teeth dung into his lips and he was quick to let go of me. "Fuck! You bit.ch!! How dare

    Catherine's POV. "HOW DARE YOU!" He boomed and began to head towards me in fury. Oh, I just made the big bully mad. "Please... Please don't hurt her, please Samuel, don't hurt her." I saw Nat immediately shot to my front, her arms spread wide to shield me and I just gaped at her. Oh, the big bully's name is Samuel. Upon seeing Nat, he paused and scowled at her. He was looking very infuriated but I didn't care, I would not stand and get bullied again, I've had enough of it while growing up. I would never ever be subjected to it again, not in this life, not after what I've gone through. "Get out of the way, wonk!" Samuel suddenly shouted and pushed Nat so hard that she fell hard on the floor, her eyeglass fell off in the process. Her drop was hard and I felt it, I was quick to rush towards her, "Are you alright, Nat?" I asked, taking her spec from the floor and helping her wear it. "I'm fine Cathy, you should have run, you really don't understand this academy, it's a place 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

    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.

    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
