Taming the Mayor's Wrath Chapter 43
Soft strokes on my back woke me up from dreamland. When I opened my eyes, the first blurry scene that came to mind was the bulk of Lucas, who was silently standing near the edge of the bed. I thought it was only happening in my imagination, but when he sensually touched my hips now, I looked at him again and realized it was Lucas. I don't know if his reaction was mocking me or adoring me based on the fact that he stared at me for a moment."Wake up now, Adeline. I thought you were just going to the bathroom. But why did you reach our son's room and end up sleeping here? Have you been drunk on just a glass of wine?" he let out a soft chuckle that sounded like wondering. I promptly turned to my other side, where Luke was sleeping soundly while cuddling me tightly. Lucas was right; I'm lying next to him! I am in our son's bedroom now, but how did I end up here? "Ah, yes, it is. Why am I here?" I asked vaguely, which made Lucas laugh weakly. "I am asking you first, why are you here?"

After the third round, Lucas and I both collapsed on the bed, panting. He simply relaxes for a few minutes before attempting to duplicate what was done. Maybe it was the alcohol in his system that caused him to get heated in bed. "Would you like another round, Lucas? Aren't you satisfied with how many times we've already done it? Oh my goodness, what are you? You never get exhausted!" Smiling and out of breath, I asked him in a teasing way.He shook his head swiftly as the corner of his lips lifted for another mocking smile. Lucas wanted to keep going even though he was out of breath and tired. My hips felt like they were going to split into two if we did it again and proceeded to another round. But it didn't happen; instead, it made me energetic."Later, let's try again another round later," he answered back as one of his arms enveloped my still-naked body once more.Even with the air conditioner on full blast, I could feel the thick sweat on his skin. Who doesn't want what we both

A month had passed without my noticing. My memory remained unchanged, and I am still unable to recall my history. I grew even closer to Luke, making certain that I met his requirements and gave him the attention he required. I've been a wonderful mother to him. Frequently goes to school to drop him off. I made certain that I took good care of my son. Throughout the month, I was aware that Luke was overjoyed as a result of my attention. It was clear in his eyes every time he spoke to me."See you later, Mommy!" he exclaimed joyfully as he walked through the academy entrance. He's shining brightly!He is a bright young man. It's also not difficult to get along with him. I fell in love with him that month, as if it were the first time he had emerged from my womb. Our mother-son bond has been re-established and restored, in my opinion. I can't believe I've never paid as much attention to a youngster like him before as I am right now. My prior personality is still a mystery to me. And I ca

I just let the night pass without saying anything. I was restless after eating, constantly recalling what the maid had said earlier. Perhaps Lucas feels stressed as a result of his uncle Elias's pressure. Maybe it's just directed at me, even though I'm not doing anything wrong to him. It's difficult for him to revert to his former self for no reason. And I believe Lucas won't do that without explanation and purpose."Aren't you going up to your son's room, Madam Adeline?"My thoughts snapped out of control when I heard her voice. My attention shifted to Luke's nanny, who was presently having a wide-eyed expression. I couldn't help but shake my head in response to her question. She must have discovered that I had no plans to get up and join them, as now is the time that Luke went up to his room. My gaze wandered from the food in front of me to her face and grin."No. I have something important to tell Lucas, so I must stay and wait for him to return home. You must look after Luke tonig

When I think about his appearance, I don't know whether to laugh or shake my head. He was in a really intoxicated state. The kind of drunk that, regardless of what I do to him, by the time he wakes up the next day, he won't be able to recall what transpired the night before. After letting myself inside our room, I shut the door with care. I removed his leather bag from my body and placed it on the ground. At that time, I realized that it had been hanging from my body since earlier. Because I was perplexed and anxious about him at the time, I probably didn't know that this was the factor that was making me feel burdened earlier."That's a bit strange, Lucas. Is it Friday today and you have a chance to be extremely drunk? I thought that you had a reputation to uphold in this city, so you must act presentably every day. I don't understand why you drank that much. Do you have a problem, huh? Just tell me, Lucas."When I checked the date on the calendar on his phone for today and realized

Deliberately, I nibbled the inside of my cheek because I was unable to tear my eyes away from his glory, which was currently sleeping in between Lucas legs. It had already been two minutes since my eyes rested in that specific spot. After I had taken off every last piece of his clothing, Lucas turned around and faced the opposite direction to embrace the pillow. It was normal to see that the chilly air from the air conditioner affected his skin. I decided to make the most of the opportunity. I shoved his body down onto the bed until I achieved my main goal. I let out a sigh, fully aware that Lucas had not yet awakened despite everything I had done to his body."I hope you sleep well, Lucas. When you wake up in the morning, everything will be made out for you." I was saying it when I was lying close to him and hugging his body.Even though some time has passed, I have not yet been overcome with feelings of drowsiness. No matter how much I moved around on the bed or twisted and turned,

After a few rounds in bed the same night, Lucas and I were able to get along well with one another and forget about everything that occurred earlier that day. I had one of his arms under my head as a pillow while I lay next to him. When he spoke, my gaze never left his face, even though it appeared that his eyes were about to close. We were able to discuss what happened and make amends, and we also came to the conclusion that we should forget everything that took place. That same night, I learned that Lucas was merely stressed out due to his job. He expressed his remorse to me, but he did not explain what the profound issue was or what the trouble was that he was having. "I am sorry for being insensitive, Adeline," he murmured as he pulled some hairs that spread on my cheeks and covered my face. By the sounds of his voice, he was sorry that he had been indifferent. "The next time we argue, I'll make sure to be more considerate."I would want to discuss his Uncle Elias entering the ma

"Mommy, Daddy, I want those toys!" Luke exclaimed happily in a tone of pleading.Luke, being the only son of the mayor of that town, naturally inherits all of the toys that his father points out to him as being eligible for. They both proceeded ahead of us as we slowly strolled. I was serenely following them, barely behind them. Having them in my life in this way makes me feel more whole as a mother and a wife. I am at a loss for words to adequately express how grateful I am to have them in my life. The paper bags containing his toys are giving his nanny a lot of trouble right now. Even if she didn't express her displeasure verbally, it was clear from the expression on her face that she was unhappy. I really wanted to be able to assist her, but I couldn't because I was afraid of what Lucas might say if he witnessed me providing assistance to her."That's enough, Luke, you've already purchased a considerable number of toys. Son, that can't be played in its entirety all at once."Both o

ANNIKA POVWho would have thought that all the ordeals Lucas and I encountered in the journey we could overcome by moving to another country?“Mom, hurry up!” Luke got my attention as I looked after them from my instance. “We must take some pictures before the increasing snowfall destroys snowmen,” he continued.My lips parted to give them a genuine smile. It almost reached my ear. My parched and cracked lips became painful due to the freezing weather in the country. The season is winter.“Yeah, I'm coming.”“Be careful, Wifey! You might fall. It's slippery!” Lucas yelled, who was there with Iris and Luke.“Instead of worrying, why don't you come here and lend me a hand? It's dangerous, right?” “You need help?”I rolled my eyes heavenwards. Does that even require to be asked? He could see that I was struggling to step closer to them. Why are the snowmen they made so far from o

The next day, I decided to visit Uncle Elias in the prison. His sentence is life imprisonment, and there is no chance of parole, but for me, that's not enough. He deserved more agonizing and severe punishment for him after knowing what he had done to Annika. He never did anything reasonable in his life anyway.“Why did you do that?!” I yelled as soon as I saw him approaching. If I could have broken his bones at this moment, I would have done it. “What's done is done, Lucas,” he answered calmly. To my ears, it sounded like he was proud. Sitting before me, I hit my hands on the table. If there were no police guard in the area, I would have already broken his neck and killed him. “There's no benefit in any regrets—”“How many more innocent girls have you robbed of a chance to live a normal life? Aren't you ashamed of what you did? You are disgusting! Most of them are minors! Didn't your body even tremble after you did that horrible thing to t

LUCAS POV I was heartbroken, and my heart seemed to break into a million pieces as I scrutinized the anguish reflected on my wife's face. I clenched my fist while I couldn't help but tighten my jaw. I was devastated as I assumed we would have no more challenging situations. But look at this: I was dumbfounded to find out that there is more. Heart-wrenching is the best way to describe my feelings towards my wife, not pity. At this moment, I really want to punch Uncle Elias face until it bleeds and see wounded pain so I can get revenge on my wife's behalf. If I can do that now, I will undoubtedly do it without regret.“Don't do anything dangerous that you will wish undone later, Lucas. Let's just let it go. That will also give us precedence over other information about us within the country. I'm embarrassed to ask you this, but I don't wish everything to get major problem of our family.”I didn't make a reply, but at the back of my mind, I wi

In two weeks of our honeymoon, Lucas and I made the most of it. We truly made the most of every moment, indulging in delicious food and intimate moments, taking some rest, and occasionally, taking a dip in the seawater to restore our bodies for long endurance. We are sole, so having intimate moments was not that tough. By reason of that, on the day that we had got to leave the place and return to reality where our two children were waiting. We didn't have anything to regret. Coming to have a vacation in this place is worthwhile and also priceless, to be accurate. It is worth the price: money, ambiance, and precious time with my husband.“Tell me honestly, Wifey, did you enjoy our two-week vacation? Or was it not enough?”I nodded in response. We are packing our things now, putting them back in the traveling bag. Tomorrow, we have an early dawn flight.”Do you want to have an extension period?”“No, this is already enough.”

So proud of myself. I gave back a cheerful and broadened smile at Lucas for his every word of acclaim. Am I mistaken in my response? I am different from other women because I have him. Why did he respond like that? Does he have a twin without me knowing? It might be as cliche as it may sound, but for me, he was the only Lucas Romanov in the world. “Am I incorrect?” I asked him and was almost about to crack up at his surprising and unimaginable reaction. “I have you, Lucas, which made me unable to be typical of another woman. Is it difficult to figure out?”“Yes, sure. You are right, Annika. I'm only only.” Lucas replied, slightly ripping off my cheeks. Despite the fact that the beginning of our love story was not significant in most people's eyes, I can only say one thing. We both felt love that was pure, even though it transpired at the wrong time with the wicked reasons behind it. Lucas and I were wounded in our cores and separated for quite a while. It taught us countless life le

Seizing for air, my eyes darted away while turning red. I'd instead stare out the car window to cover up my face. Lucas surely knows a lot of gibberish things. He kept getting on my nerves even though it was not his intention. As I spoke, my heart pounded with pressure. I felt Lucas motion to my side, probably to continue what he was doing, but I ignored him. My eyes remained outside as if he was not with me. Unhurriedly, I bit my lower lip to reduce the uncertainty that I felt. My body reacted and heated up at Lucas actions. If anyone else saw that, they might think he was out of his mind and a maniac. Lucas cannot close his pointed tongue and does not know the boundaries about speaking such things. I mentally roll my eyes. He cracked up so hard when he saw my response to what he spoke out. He was very pleased with the unexpected retort he got from me. Consistently, I ignored him. I didn't dare to look him in the eye as I learned my whole being was bewildered.“Don't worry, Annika.

As I expected, Luke's nanny Emily still resided in the mansion. Her appearance did mature but she was still the affectionate nanny of Luke. I didn't know if she knew my real identity because she always smiled at me from the day that we met and every time she made eye contact with me. To think about it, that seems impossible. My face is now reversed. I'm in my real appearance. There are no specks that once in the past five years, I pretended to be Adeline. Not unless Luke who is chatty like Iris, will tell her who I am. In that case, the reason was acceptable. “Mom, don't worry about my sister. I can take care of her too. Just enjoy your vacation with Dad. You don't need to think about us.” Luke stole my attention by expressing that as he rubbed his sister's back presumably to comfort her. “I'm a big boy now. I won't leave her alone or behind. You can depend on me right, Mommy?”“Alright Luke, thank you for your concern. I appreciate that.” I replied and

Our honeymoon vacation is organized for two weeks. At first, I did not approve when Lucas told me to decide which country I wished to go to. To be honest, I don't like to go out of the country, especially without our children so Lucas chose to have a honeymoon on one of the well-known beaches within the country. If we ever go and schedule to have a fun vacation in another country, the children must be with us. In my honest opinion, we don't require this. It's not necessary to do this after all we are already old. I believe the honeymoon is only for newly married couples who don't have children yet. And we are not counted among them. “We already have a child, Lucas. Is that still essential for us?” I appealed to him when he opened up about this concern to settle in. “Yes, that's a normal thing Annika to the couple after marriage. Even if we have a child, we can still do it. There is nothing wrong with that.” “But, we won't be required to

Adeline's parents also attended with so much excitement at our wedding. They never criticize me as a replacement for their daughter in Lucas and Luke's life. Lucas was correct. He already dealt with everything before he set a dinner with his entire family. They cannot stop saying gratitude and compliments for the greatness of my soul. At this moment, I feel like they are genuine for saying those words. They're not acting up just to please me. Unlike when I was in the shoes of Adeline, their words were full of bitterness and remorse towards me. I did not expect that their behavior would not as tough and rough as before, especially Lucas's mother. The level was diverse then.“Welcome to our family, Annika!” she exclaimed, she kissed me on both of my cheeks after hugging me.I just emphasize a slight smile. I couldn't halt my lips from trembling as I was frightened of them on the day that Lucas introduced us. Like even if Lucas told me to calm down because h
