BLAIRThe next few hours before dinner was torture. My mind kept running, thinking of what grandpa will say, what he will think. That worried the hell out of me.Since this happened, I don’t think I’ve feared what anyone would think as I did him.The man may be terrible and he made you dread his presence. But his aura was so powerful that you couldn’t help seeking his validation. And like he knows that, he makes people work hard for that.Mum assured me it was nothing. That he probably saw the news and wanted to complain in person. He wasn’t told first and clearly didn’t like that.She looked so unbothered saying it that I wanted to believe her. My panicked mind didn’t let me.When I saw she didn’t get how much it was making me nervous, I forced a smile and went back to my room. There, I worried in peace.Dinner time rolled in so fast. I could have sworn it was just five minutes ago that I heard the news.I dressed as fast as I could, straightened my hair too. Just anything to please
LUCIANThrough dinner I had to force my thoughts to remain PG rated. And forced my mind to not remember anything that happened last night. To not even think of Blair.It was hard. Probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I thought of my grandmother, and another old woman back at the pack in a bikini. Heck I even thought of rogues and how terrible their stench was, all in an attempt to get my body to calm down.It seems, I’m in a constant state of arousal when Blair is close. And the last thing I wanted was to be caught packing in front of her entire family.That would ha
BLAIRLucian’s hand around my throat makes me moan. For another reason, I’m grateful we’re far away from everyone. There is no chance that they’ll hear what is happening.“Does driving me crazy turn you on?” He rasps, his voice husky with desire. “There has to be a reason you enjoy riling me up so much.”I moan a yes when his hand trails up my inner thigh. Just a little bite higher and he’ll get to my panties, then the place I need him most.“Please.” I cry out when he teases the drenched material.“Say it again,” he whispers
BLAIRIt was weird for me to wake up before ten in the morning, especially when I had nothing to do.I couldn’t tell what was bothering me or what made me get up. So, I just went on with my day.I saw many missed calls from Sasha and Mikaela, both of them apologizing for betting on my sex life.Sasha swore that I was sleeping with Lucian, while Mikaela voted against it. She said she knew I hated the guy so there was no way I would do anything like that.I proved her wrong. She said she wasn’t even upset about that. As long as I was happy.
BLAIRI knew something was wrong when mum said I should meet her in dad’s office.I didn’t know what and no matter how much I racked through my brain, I couldn’t think of anything.I asked Eliane if she had a clue, but she said no. That she hadn’t spoken to either of them since she got to the house. Pushing my worries aside, I headed to the office.The party is about to get started and some guests have already started arriving. A few of the people from my mum’s club waved when they saw me, some stopped to congratulate me.I saw how their eyes mostly strayed to my bare fing
LUCIANDid I expect Blair to react the way she did when I presented the prenup papers? Yes, I expected that.That wasn’t what I had been worried about though.I know she knows it would be stupid on both our sides to get married without a prenup. Especially when we don’t really have an idea what the fuck we’re doing.Is the marriage going to be real? Yes. Legally at least. But apart from that, we have no idea what the hell is going to happen.And if she’d read the goddamn paper, she would see the last thing I focused on was money or property. I’m more interested in what would happen to the child she is carrying, if by any chance we separate.I need my heir, and I’m ke
BLAIRI don’t know how Lucian convinced me to read the prenup. But after I read through it, I realized he has more to lose than anyone if we were to separate.I could contest for many things in court, he didn’t care about properties and monetary benefits. He only wanted the child in the case of divorce.Full custody.I told him no. Without blinking an eye. My response was no.He sighed, but he didn’t argue. Right there on the balcony, he called his lawyer and had them draw up another contract.I didn’t know what the urgency was for, but I guessed he wanted everything to be settled before he left tonight.I spoke with dad and he too c
BLAIRThe party was in full swing when we finally went down. Lucian met with me halfway and we socialized with the guests. Most of them were people I’ve known all my life so I only introduced them to Lucian.He was actually polite when he wanted to be.I had a feeling even if he was being an asshole to them, they would still kiss his ass. There was something about him that automatically made people want to give him what he wanted.I had a little panic attack when the time to toast came. I couldn’t not drink in front of so many people.Coming up with a plan to keep the drink in my mouth and then find somewhere to spit it didn’t sound solid enough for me. I even asked myself if just one drop of alcohol was going to be all that dang
