Chapter: Chapter 61_ A Temptress The next morning, Lucas woke up with the light of the sun caressing the curtains with its golden rays. His emerald eyes peeled open, and the first thing that greeted his sight was the beautiful face of his wife.‘His wife,’ Lucas repeated in his head, liking the sound of it. She slept peacefully, facing him, and their legs were draped across each other's.Lucas's eyes gleamed with affection as he watched her sleeping form. He felt a blissful feeling welling up in his chest. Suddenly, he had the urge to sleep next to her every day and wake up beside her the next morning. He wanted to have days like this with her every single day of his life.After leaving Ace behind in the study room last night, Lucas entered his room, and seeing Kate lying peacefully on his bed made him want to join her and sleep next to her while holding her in his arms. And that was exactly what he did.It didn’t take him long to fall asleep when the warmth of her body melted with his and lured him to sleep. ‘Was he

Chapter: His Achilles' Heel“What is the plan?” Elizabeth asked her father immediately as they entered the living room. She had been hurt seeing Lucas marry someone else right in front of her! She had wanted to cause a scene earlier, accusing Kate of stealing her man and taking away the status of being Mrs. Romano from her.In the beginning, she had befriended Lucas because her father ordered her to do so and wanted to forge an alliance with the most powerful mafia gang in the country. But after spending time with Lucas and experiencing what it seemed like for a man like Lucas to love a woman, Elizabeth deviated from her father's plan.She became greedy for more. She wanted to own the man completely, his heart and everything he had. She wanted to be his wife—how powerful she'd become if her father and Lucas joined forces through her. They would dominate the world, and she’d be at the pinnacle. People would respect her more and fear her.Just when she was almost close to succeeding in her plans and fulfilling her

Chapter: Chapter 59_ Little Moans “Where do you think you are going?” Lucas asked with knitted brows when he saw Kate heading to the hallway that led to her room instead of his. Was she going to sleep in her bedroom? Had she forgotten that they were newlyweds now, and tonight was supposed to be their wedding night? Lucas mused silently as he watched her.Kate pursed her lips together, not understanding what the man wanted from her again. She had married him, hadn't she? What else did he want from her?“I'm going to my room," she answered, despite the thoughts in her head.Lucas raised a brow at her words. “Need I remind you that we're legally married now? You're my wife, Kate. And you will sleep in my room, on my bed… beside your husband,” he said, his tone brooking no argument.Kate scoffed at his words as she put her hands on her waist. “What marriage? Are you having delusions now? This is a fake marriage, alright? I'm not going to put up with your tyrannical ways of having things go your way!"Lucas took a step clo

Chapter: Chapter 58_ Ran Away The cathedral stood with its magnificent dome and intricate stone carvings that have stood the test of time. It was a sight to behold. Outside of it, Ace stood there with furrowed brows as he appeared to be dialing someone on the phone and placing the mobile close to his ear. He was pacing back and forth; his expression weary. He had tried his best to delay the wedding and keep the guests waiting for Lucas, but Ace couldn't bear it any longer when people started to get impatient, and with Wilson watching his every move, he couldn't make it so obvious that something was wrong.He was finally able to catch a breather and left the suffocating hall, and that was when he decided to try calling Lucas on the phone. If he didn't appear with Kate in a few minutes, Ace was certain he wouldn't have any excuse left to keep the guests waiting anymore.“What's wrong, Ace? Where is Lucas and his little bride?" Elizabeth said as she stood behind Ace with a knowing smile. Then she placed her hands on

Chapter: Chapter 57_ I hate you! “I said, 'Get your hands off her!’” Lucas snarled as he pulled out his gun and pointed it straight at Matteo.“Lucas!” Kate gasped, her heart lurching in her throat as she stepped between Matteo and Lucas. “What are you doing? Drop the gun.”Seeing her stand in front of Matteo and protect him, Lucas saw red. He couldn't bear the sight of her standing beside another man and defending him. Lucas drew his gun and aimed at Matteo's leg. “I’ll give you two seconds, Kitty. Come over to my side, or I shoot him.”Kate swallowed hard as she nodded and let her feet take a step forward, slowly walking toward Lucas, her eyes trained on his gun. As she took another step, she felt someone grab her hand and pull her backward, then she felt her back hit Matteo's chest, the contact driving Lucas mad as he pulled the trigger, shooting Matteo in the leg.“Lucas, no!” Kate cried as she turned back to see Matteo fall to the ground, his face pale. She rushed toward him, holding him closely to her body as fa

Chapter: Chapter 56_ Lust and Attraction When Kate pulled away from the hug and wanted to step back from Matteo, his hands went around her back, and he held her waist, his actions surprising Kate. “W-what are you doing, Matteo?" Kate asked, her breath suddenly turning labored, not from excitement like she wanted to feel, but from nervousness—or was it fear?Matteo's grip tightened around her waist, then a look of hesitation crossed his face, but it soon turned into seriousness as he gazed at her with determination in his eyes. It was now or never. With that thought in mind, he began, “Kate… You're one of the most important people to me. I’ve felt this way, even back in school, and our time here together has strengthened my feelings. When the headquarters assigned someone to be transferred here, I immediately volunteered because I thought it might bring us together again.”The thrumming of Kate's heart was all too clear as she processed Matteo's words. “You came back to the city for me?" she asked, looking at him, perplexed.
