LUCIANAll Blair needed was her orgasm, then she was fast asleep. I smiled watching her before I got off the bed and walked to the bathroom where I found a towel and wet it with warm water. After cleaning her up, I dressed her in the shirt I’d taken off. Something I found she liked and I took a shower and decided to get into bed with her.That sleep looked peaceful.When I got into the bed though, my attention moved to the bump protruding in my shirt. Her stomach has gotten even bigger now. You could easily tell she was pregnant. It made a force possessiveness wash over me whenever I see her.I moved closer to her, until there was no breathing space between us. My hands on my bump and the other supporting her head. She murmured in her sleep and snuggled closer to me.We had a dinner reservation for the evening. We woke up and lazed in bed for the rest of the day. We finally got ready a few minutes to eight, then stepped out of the hotel.“Ugh, we should have ordered in?” Blair grumble
LUCIAN“You’ve been here before?” Blair asked, closing the menu and keeping it back on the table.She looked through it again, after mentioning she had no idea what any of the things on it meant.“Not here, though.” I replied, watching her do the littlest things. Like how she moved her hair from her face often, the way she plays with her fingers.If there is one thing I can say about Blair is, she can’t sit idle. She has to be doing something. Movie her hands, touching This or that. It was endearing to watch, knowing not anyone would know this about her but I did. Because I saw her up close. Because she was free with me and she let me see all the small things she did.“I’m telling you about the country,” I nodded and told her, yes. I’ve been here a few times. “Why didn’t you mention it? I would have picked somewhere else.” She pouted, looking a little sad. “The whole point of going to places we haven’t been is so we can experience it for the first time.”I wanted to put that smile bac
BLAIRI never thought I would be the one overthinking school in this marriage. What I was even more shocked about was Lucian’s support.In my head, I thought he would just be his usual bossy self and he’ll implement what he thinks I should do. Which will make me lose it and we’ll have a fight. It was an endless circle.Except, he surprised me. He was more bothered than I was. Because when Sasha and Mikayla asked what I was thinking of doing. The first thing that came to my mind was deferring.I thought it would just be better to finish after my baby is here. I didn't want to put myself through much stress. It might affect my baby’s health. The thought of them not being fine made me feel like my chest is burning.In the end, he said we should leave the topic for another day. He wasn’t happy with me for the whole thing.I didnt know which school he went to. I’m not sure if his parents were in the house or what happened to them. But he has never brought it up.I felt like a crazy possess
BLAIRWhat Elaine said shook me to the core. And I couldn’t even hide it because immediately when I got back to our table. Lucian asked if I would like to go back to the hotel and skip dessert. I was grateful to him for that.He did ask if my sister was okay. He didn’t ask the basics of it or what was going on, just if she was fine. And I know I’ve said it before, but right now, that made me believe I was falling in love with him.My friends have said it many times. The way to my heart is through my family. And if that made me easy, then so be it.But as long as you’re good to me, you respect and care about family, and you aren’t rude to others. I’ll love you forever.It doesn’t have to necessarily be in a romantic way. There are a lot of platonic loves.But there is no mistaking, what I feel for Lucian is nothing platonic.He hailed a cab for us back to the hotel. Another positive point for him because that was thoughtful. And during the entire ride, he didn’t release my hand. When w
LUCIANBlair’s question came out of nowhere but the answer wasn’t hard to find. If anything, it was too easy.Many ways to tell her how much she is important to me and how this is the best thing that has ever happened to me, come to my head. But nothing makes it past my lips.In the end, I settled for watching her silently, hoping she could see the truth in my eyes.You’re fucking dumb. That growly voice in my head mutters.I ignore my wolf, not planning on letting him ruin this moment of peace between us. I’d seen his reflection in her eyes when I first turned to face her. And she looked stunned for a second before going back to normal.I told myself it was nothing and she saw nothing.It was getting harder and harder to control my body’s natural instinct to protect. With how possessive he is getting, now that we can clearly hear our pup’s heartbeat in her womb. He wanted to show her his true self, and he wanted her to accept this.In my head, we lived in a perfect world where she wo
BLAIRThe rest of our Japan trip was amazing.Lucian and I were getting closer. So much that this felt like a real marriage. It was surprising how that thought now makes butterflies swirl in my stomach. Instead of the panic I used to feel before.And I found out his middle name is Elijah.It wasn’t anything unexpected, but I didn’t really expect it. I started laughing after he told me, and that made him torture me with tickles. Thankfully, that ended with messy, sweaty sex. So I wasn’t really complaining.We went to Singapore from there. Funny how I have been looking forward to going there but I couldn’t remember most of it. I just lived in the moment, sometimes forgetting to get the videos the girls said they needed. And yes, needed. Apparently, it was as important as oxygen.Greece was also fun, and like Singapore. I lived in the moment.Now, after a month of travels, I couldn’t wait to go back home.Lucian had asked if I was tired and ready to go home. I wouldn’t say I was tired, b
BLAIRI don’t know what I was expecting when the plane landed and we exited the car. But maybe a sense of familiarity. Something I could remember from being here. But nothing rang a bell and everywhere looked different.“Did I lose my memory or have I never been here?” I asked Lucian, when he opened the door for me to get in.The SUV seemed familiar. In the sense that, it was his go to ride all the time. But apart from that, there was nothing familiar.Not even the men getting our things, or the driver. I waited for the ‘alpha’ comment, but they only called him Mr. Vladimir.“It is because you haven’t been here before.” He replied coolly. I turned to look at him but he only smiled and nodded. “Get in. I’ll explain.”I gave him a look but got in as he said. He closed the door and got in through the other side. I was already facing him when he got in and he laughed seeing my expectant expression.“Calm down, babe. Not kidnapping you.” I paid no attention to how my lower belly clenched w
LUCIAN I’d imagined how amazing the week I planned for us to spend in Cuba would be. Then I woke up the next morning feeling a little out of it. Still, intent on having the time of my life with the woman I want to be with for the rest of my life. I chose to push the feeling aside and had breakfast with Blair. She already made a list of all the things she wanted us to do. I was looking forward to all of them. I recalled what was at the top of the list. “Get a tattoo?” I asked, looking up at the eagerly smiling woman in front of me. “Yep.” She replied, nodding frantically. “I’ve always wanted to get one but I know my mum and dad would freak out, so I never did it. But I’m married now.” She said, giving me a big grin. “So, I can get it.” I chuckled in response to her excitement. “You’ll probably not like this then,” her smile immediately fell and I wanted to put it back. “You can’t get a tattoo.” She gave me a look, cocking her brow. She moved back, my hand that was on her waist fa
