All Chapters of Taming the Mayor's Wrath: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Suddenly the whole area became quiet after Luke acknowledged my response. If our son understood my alibi and bought it right away, Lucas didn't. After a minute or two, I noticed how quickly Lucas's reaction had altered. He is disappointed in me, and it was written on his entire face. Yes, it's my fault that his happy mood shifted and was ruined, and of course, I regret that big time. I was too carried away by my emotions and sentiments, not knowing it could result in something like this. I should express happy feelings, especially when Luke is with us. Ruining my husband's good mood by accident was not my core intention."I'm really sorry." I felt embarrassed and guilty, so I opened my mouth to ask for forgiveness while looking at Lucas without Luke seeing it. He was now crouching at my side, looking out the window as he watched the skyway we were currently crossing over. Luke's eyes were full of admiration and adoration, as if he had just seen the place for the first time."Next tim

Lucas moved closer to me and leaned in. I can pick up on his signature fragrance, which is not overpowering to the sense of smell. It stings in every corner of my nose. My skin felt the warmth from his hot breath as well when I felt his breath just a few inches away from my face. I readjusted my position in the chair and brought the menu forward just a hair so that he could read it easily. It took him a few moments before he was able to select what he wanted to eat. "Please bring me one serving of white pasta and a salad with vegetables. Pineapple juice is my drink."Lucas could have seen and felt the intense gaze that I was casting in his direction, so he veered around to face me. We locked our eyes with each other for a few moments in front of the flight attendant, as if they were talking in silence. After a while, he looked away as if he were burned by my deep gaze."How about you, Adeline? What kind of food are you craving today? You are free to choose anything you wish to have.

Several times I tried to capture Lucas' eyes, but his eyes were shut every time I did that. As if doing that would make his fatigue decrease. When Lucas opened his eyes, I forced a wide smile. By that time, he had become devilish, as he glanced everywhere as if preventing me from gazing at him. After a while, his body slowly fell and lay on top of me, which caused me to gasp for air. Lucas even gave me the reason to have difficulty breathing because of the weight of his whole body that he put on me. "Lucas, get off me! You are too heavy! Do you want me to pass out? Get off of me. I cannot breathe, please!" I pleaded with him while rubbing and patting his back in an attempt to grab his attention.Lucas just cracked up, as he may think that I am just fooling him to get down. Instead, to attend to what I declared, he slowly kissed me on my dry lips to seal it, as if doing that would make me shut my mouth. I gasped in the air again after he removed his lips from mine. Even though he move

When Lucas and I got up to the room, it was almost time for dawn to break. At this time, nature is at its best. The sun's golden rays already give a bright color to the clouds that can be seen outside the see-through, thick windows on the other side of the hallway. Last night, Lucas and I made the decision to hang around outside the hotel for a while and observe the world around us while we were there, just the two of us.Even though the happenings around us weren't significant and vital, they nonetheless managed to cheer us up and make us grin as if we were having a date. The redundant noise and sight of waves promote a meditative state. We feel unburdened and lighter, which positively represents our mood to be happy all through the night.In addition to that, we eat some foods that are only available in this area and nowhere else on the side of the planet. While we are also out, we can't help but stop at the stalls positioned outside the hotel to have a few glasses of liquor. At fir

As I walked closer to the hotel entrance, I tried to widen my smile. I slowly took a stride closer to them. Lucas, Luke, and Emily were already standing near the entrance, where the grand piano is, and waiting for me. Earlier, before I came down, I called him, but he didn't answer, so I just sent a message. Still, I did not get any response from him, so I didn't expect them to get there before me. I even thought that I would be the one to wait for them. I didn't even know where they were earlier, so I did not bother to knock on Emily's door. Maybe I knew that Lucas would go to their room and tell them to prepare so we could go out and eat our lunch. "Hi, have you all been here for a while? I apologize if it took me some time to get here. How long did you wait for me?" I asked them as my eyes hurriedly glanced at Lucas.Gently, I stroked Luke on his head as he hugged me from one of my legs up to my waist. He even looked up at me to get my attention, still focused on his father, Lucas.
