Catherine's POV. "Be careful, alright?" Lucas asked as the car drew to a halt In front of the university building.I blushed hard and nodded but was quick to say, "Yes Lucas, I'll be." "And don't forget to...""Call you when I have any problem, copy Lucas." I finished the sentence for him and he grinned."You're becoming too forward, Red hair." He muttered with a chuckle and ruffled my hair."C'mon, don't get used to ruining my hairstyle, it's not fair," I whined and moved slightly towards him to get a kiss but he grabbed me and captured my lips in a head-spinning kiss, I greedily responded by sucking on his tongue. "Mmmm..." I hummed and moved closer to him but he immediately pulled away from the kiss."You're crazy." He muttered and bent my head to drop kisses on my forehead."You'll see how crazy I'll be if I get to work in your office, dah-ddy," I whispered with a wink and he just chuckled. "You're the sweetest and most crazy girl I've ever met!" He exclaimed and patted my hea
Catherine's POV. "Oh my God!" A student let out a screech that echoed through the empty hall.Yeah...oh Lord!Oh God!"Si... Sir." I stuttered, my eyes fixed on the man who was looking at me with a rigid expression, standing beside him was Sam, he was looking shocked as well, and I was horrified too."Class dismissed." The man's deep voice resonated through the hall and I immediately heard shuffling sounds. I dare not look back, my eyes were fixed on him, my heart thumping angrily against my ribcage because I didn't know what was going on.He just dismissed class... He's... Oh my! He's a lecturer!The professor... Yeah, the professor... Mr. Liam, Sam's father. We were supposed to have his class today and because of the stories I've heard about him, I was looking forward to meeting him for the first time but as my terrible luck would have it, I emptied my drink on him. How can my beautiful morning get ruined like this?! "Sir… I'm so... I'm really...""Shhh, calm down." He hushed me
Catherine's POV. I dropped on the nearest seat with a silent thud, my hand aching so badly that I just wanna go for a bath in my bathtub now. "Sweetheart, you want some help?" Sam asked, staring at me with a grimace.I chose to ignore him as always. I've been ignoring him for the past two hours. Professor Liam had asked the both of us to dust the library and arrange the books that were scattered all over the place. The work was meant for cleaners but the professor thought it's best he gives us as punishment. It was tedious work and I hate Sam for it. I've done my own part of the job but he was joking and flirting around. It's either he's on his phone chatting and calling away or he's disturbing the shits out of me."C'mon, you know we could have avoided this had you just stopped being a hard nut to crack, we would make compatible partners you know?" He asked and I rolled my eyes, bloody motherfucker.I hate that boy, more than anything I hate, it's just surprising how the bully sud
Lucas's POV"Wait... Please wait." She pleaded, trying to draw to a halt but I wouldn't listen, I can not listen, she's hurt, she's bleeding and she's asking me to wait!"Lucas!" She screeched and forced me to a halt, we were in an open space and I'm sure many eyes were staring at us but I just didn't care."What is it Red hair?" I asked, turning to look at her without letting go of her hand. There's no way I'm gonna let her go, she might probably run and I am not in the mood to chase her around the compound. "Wait, let me explain everything to you." She said and her mouth bleed the more.Gosh! Who could have done this to her?"Yeah, you have a lot of explaining to do but first, come, I'll treat your mouth," I muttered, trying hard not to snap.I walked to my car, opened the front seat, and sat her in the passenger seat. She looked very lost and I could not ignore the fear in her eyes.Going to the back door, I opened it and reached for the first aid kit before going back to her. E
Catherine's POV. *Slap*The sound of Lucas slapping Sam reverberated in the air and my hand flew to my mouth in awe as I watched Sam stagger backward due to the force of the slap. Everyone gasped in shock, I could hear the angry breath emanating from Lucas.I turned to look at him and my heart melted, the anger I saw on his face tugged something in me, something I don't even know I can feel again. I wanted to hug him but I restrained myself because of the place we were in... No one, no one had ever stood up for me, this felt so strange yet it felt so good, really good."Lucas..." I called and he lowered his head to look at me, his expression softening and I gave him a shy smile.God! What's this man doing to me? "Are you alright, Red Hair?" He asked softly, his hot breath fanning my cheeks and I couldn't help but blush hard. "I'm... I'm fine, I'm really fine." I replied, my heart swelling with this insane happiness that I could not explain."Good." He replied curtly and turned to
Catherine's POV. "Where the hell are we going, Natasha?" I asked the girl dragging me from the scene."Somewhere private." She replied curtly. "For what? We're having lectures bae."I said in alarm, trying to rip my wrist away from her stronghold but she held on tight. Crazy lady! "The next lecture will be in the next one hour, we need to discuss before then cause I can not wait any longer, the suspense will kill me during lectures if I don't ask you everything I wanna know now." She muttered and we stepped into the open air. "Wow, nice view," I muttered as my eyes beheld the beautiful huge pasture in front of me, I had never come to this side of the school before. "Sit your ass down young lady, I didn't bring you here to admire the view of the pasture." She ordered and I smiled, wondering what was up with her. I did as she instructed and took my seat on the long bench, she took her seat opposite me and faced me squarely."Now, start talking." I tilted my head backward in awe,
Catherine's POV. Three weeks later. "Is he back?"I asked Bella for like the hundredth time that evening but she just shook her head negatively. I'm sure she must be tired of me constantly coming downstairs to ask the same darn question every time. It wasn't my fault, it's been three weeks since I saw him last, and for the past three weeks, I haven't seen Lucas... Well, we do video calls and all but that doesn't count, I just wanna see him physically, I want to hug him and kiss him... My lip is now perfectly healed. After he came to my school and put the silly tyrant Sam in his place, I came home eager to ask him so many questions in relation to the discussion I had with Natasha but he wasn't home. According to him, something urgent came up and he had to leave. It was agonizing not to have him with me all those weeks, I had missed him and despite having a video call with him every single night, it wasn't enough compared to having him with me physically. "Maamaa… " I heard a famil
Lucas's POV. I stepped out of the bathroom feeling restless, I tried to jerk off in the bath ring but it seems like an impossible job, I'm not rock hard anymore, my cock was a steel rod ready to fuck. Not just any holes, I want this fuck Catherine's holes, anyone she's willing to offer, I'm more than willing to dig her. I've tried to be reasonable and stay as far as possible away from her but I just couldn't, that girl has touched places I never knew would come live again. I know it's wrong but something keeps telling me it was right. I'm in pure lust when it comes to her, the insanity I felt when I saw her hurt was enough to make me wanna kill, I just wanna keep her safe, and make all her dreams come true, I want her to be her own woman, a woman where no man, not even me or my useless son would dare say trash about. There's more to Catherine, more to her than anyone could see and I know that she'll soon show everyone the kind of power beneath her. She wants me and I'll be a lyi
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
