##Chapter 17

Their First Meeting

Lucian's POV.

“I…I” she wanted to talk, but stopped, sobbing in my arms. “It's okay” I said, my voice low and calming.

My heart arched as she bawled her eyes out, which made me want to destroy her family.

“I lived with monsters” she cried, pulling away from me slightly, but I didn't want to let her be apart from me for a moment.

“You have me now, everything is fine” I reach out as I cup her face with my hands.

She nodded as the hot liquid fell on my hands. Her tears streamed down her cheeks non-stop. I pulled her into my arm, and hugged her tightly, patting her back softly.

“Cry tonight, and be strong tomorrow, I will always make sure to give you anything you request” I whispered to her ear, and pressed a soft kiss on her hair.

It has always been her family, she cries almost every time I see her on bridal shower night, and the first day we met.

Flashback

I went for a meeting in a neighborhood, and the conversation wasn't giving me anything I planned,

    ##Chapter 19Throwing Herself At HimMichelle's POV I was ashamed of throwing myself at him, when he didn't even ask for it. I thought he wanted it. ‘Why did he resist me? He took me to his room, put me to bed. He took care of me so well, am I not attractive enough for him?’ I mulled in my head wondering what changed.I felt little, offering him my body because of what he did for me. I knew he would think cheap of me because of how I threw myself at him because of that.“Is this how you throw yourself at men when they help you?” He said with a scornful gaze, and that melt down my respect for him.'Did he judge people that easily?' I thought.I felt embarrassed hearing that from him. “It is in our contract, I am not cheap like you think” I defended myself, trying to control my anger.“Really? But what did you just do? You acted so innocent and naive that night, but you are throwing yourself at me today, what's wrong with you?” He asked with a mocking smirk, playing on his lips.“Mr Luc

But then I got to realize how handsome he was looking at him From such a direction.‘His jawline is smooth! How could he maintain this lip color?!’ I screamed in my head as I scrutinized his face with my eyes.“Oh” I muttered, unconsciously. “Do you wish to remain like this Mrs Houston?” Lucian asked with a naughty smirk playing on his lips, referring to the position we were.‘How can you be so stupid Michelle?’ I gave myself a mental slap as I jerked up, I knew I would see a thousand pictures of that position. “Thank you” I mumbled embarrassingly.“You shouldn't be this clumsy in public,” he replied in a low tone. “I was not clumsy, they pushed me, I didn't know they were going to be here” I tried to defend myself in a low voice. “It's predicted though” he replied, making me angry. ‘Can he just let me breathe for a while?’

I knew that would not end well if we got how so I decided to clear the air before then.‘He is older anyway, acting cute will soften his mood’ I mulled in my head not knowing it was just a way to ruin myself.“Mr Houston” I reached out to his hands cutely, he looked at me with a shocked and questioning gaze.“What are you doing __” he was saying, but I cut in. “You look cool earlier, you are truly my husband, Lucian Houston, I respect you” I pouted, and even the driver almost threw up at my awful act.I am not used to being cute even though I felt embarrassed doing that, but

I am back!” Darren's voice could be heard from the other end, and I could tell how excited he was. “Welcome” I said lazily. “What? Just like that?” Darren scoffed from the other end. “What do you want me to say?” I shook my head at his dramatic ways.“We should meet up, I can't wait to hear your excuse for getting married in such a way” he blurted from the other end.“Really?

He was angry some moments ago, and now he was inside the funny room with his arm widely open.‘What is happening here?’ I mulled in my head, hoping that nothing was wrong. “I-I…” he stuttered then stopped talking. I walked further inside the room, looking around the room that was decorated with pink, and pink balloons. ‘Why did he do this?’ I thought, and wanted to figure out why he asked me in.‘But how did he get this much pink teddy?’ I thought, looking at tbe absurd decorations. ‘Is he trying to impress his niece?’ I wondered, then remembered that he didn't have a good relationship with his family.“Did he have a secret baby?

You won't get tired of me?” I asked, wanting to be sure. “Tired of you? I always want you around me” she pouted.“I missed you so much that I always lost my mind.

Its rays pierced through the leaves of the trees, creating a dappled pattern on the ground that danced with the gentle breeze. “They are both not picking their calls?!” Michelle scoffed as she tried her husband's number several times. “How could he abandon me in the morning and still decide to ignore my calls?” She rants.“He abandoned you in the morning? We have been given this kind of treatment for some days now.” I hissed angrily.We both rant and gossip till we lose interest in all the topics and decide to try calling them again.“This kind of treatment is killing me” I mumbled subconsciously. “What? You fell first and fell harder within a few weeks?” Michelle kissed her teeth.“Yeah, just like you got pregnant in a contract marriage” I scoffed at her. “It's different!” She threw the throw pillow at me.“I will pretend to believe it” I

Is he trying to break up with me?” I mumbled angrily, trying his number again. He hasn't been answering his calls properly for three days, and if he picks up he would end the call almost immediately. “I need help” I scoffed, dialing my friend's number.“Hello” Michelle's voice sounds tired and frustrated. “Bestie!” I yelled. “Hey! Why did you scream? Are you trying to damage the eardrum?” She scolded from the other end..“Sorry… I will come to visit you at the hospital today” I said slowly because I haven't properly moved myself since I left the hospital, because Darren sent one of his maids to my house since I refused to go to his mansion.“You don't have to,” Michelle said from the other end. “Wh

Elena has lost control and she already took one of our boys as hostage, trying to escape but I couldn't save her nor could I stop her.I was told to stand guard and make sure nobody gets out which was a hard task for me. I really wanted to go inside the room and calm her down, but I couldn't.“Please Elena” I mumbled beneath my breath, praying that the boys didn't lose control and kill her.I checked my watch while waiting for my boss. Not too long, the two drove in. “Welcome boss,” I said hurriedly. “What's the matter, why are you sweating profusely?” Darren asked worriedly. “Elena… hmmm—she held one of our boys hostage and she is trying to escape” I reported.“What? What did she do?!” Lucian widened his eyes angrily. “I'm sorry, please just calm her down…. I'm sure she meant no harm” I pleaded.“Harry, she passed her boundary.” Darren shook his head. ‘'Death?’ I ponder

Huh?” She asked excitedly. “Yes” I nodded as I patted her head. “Take it off, right now” she started unbuttoning my pajamas. “Huh? No

There's three dead bodies in my room!“What's th—is?” my voice trembled, as I looked at the body lying on the floor lifelessly with holes in their foreheads. That scene alone is traumatizing for me.“They are my boys, and I decided to prank you to see your reaction—and…. And of course you look shocked, I won!” He spouted, but I couldn't move my eyes from the bodies on the floor.I tried to figure out what happened, but I couldn't because the closet door was so thick and I barely hear a word, but I definitely heard ‘Warehouse’ “Babe—” I wanted to walk towards Lucian, but my legs hit the dead body which made me scream. “Ahhhh!” “It's okay baby” he pulled me up and carried me in his arms. “Lucian?” I wrapped my arms around him as I buried my face on his neck.“I'm scared!” “It’s okay, Let's go” he sighed,

    ##Chapter 89Lucian's POV.Oh, I'm Sorry Master.I left the warehouse after checking up on Elena, Harry's girl. She looked so clever as her eyes were filled with determination. I wonder what else she was capable of because that was the first time that I got cornered by anybody. My ego was hurted, because I wouldn't say that I didn't see it coming, but I was surprised that the plan was led by a girl.I zoomed into the hospital parking lot, and entered the VIP elevator. “Oh… fuvk! Flowers!” I jerked up as I ran to my car. I got a flower bouquet for my wife, knowing how angry she would be because I promised not to leave her alone. “I hope I don't get my butt kicked today” I mumbled beneath my breath, doubting the fact that I was the one that made the rules before getting married to her because she was the boss at the moment.“Nobody told me marriage was like this… Darren is so useless….
