Lucky's POV
"Damien, Let's break up."
In order to end our unblessed relationship, I picked a random guy and kissed him before Damien.
I knew it's unfair for him, but this would be the most effective choice.
When there lies my father's dead between us, how could I continue being his girlfriend?
I never wanted to betray our love nor my family.
Damian could recover from the failure one day but my dad could never come back.
"What's h-happening to us, Lucresia? Did I do anything wrong? Why are you doing t-this to me?"
It's so hard to ignore his painful and faint sobs, so I swallowed hard continuously and squeezed my eyes closed.
"I'm sorry, Damien…" I sobbed, "It's...just I fell for another man."
"I don't believe it! I'm gonna kill that bastard!"
"Do it." I growled, stopping him from leaving. "Hurt him and I'll hate you forever, Damien."
A deafening silence filled us until he faced me again. Unlike a while ago, his expression is now hard and furious.
"D-Do you really want me out of your life?" He asked, almost a whisper.
I took all my courage and nodded. "I want you gone, Damien. Your face hurts me. I don't wanna see you again."
That's the truth. Whenever I see him, I always remember my father. My father's bloody and lifeless body. My poor daddy.
He gave a wry smile and slowly nodded as tears rolled down his cheeks. He quickly wiped them and looked straight into my eyes.
His eyes were resentful.
"I've only ever loved you, Lucresia. But you wasted this intense love. I will make you pay the price."
Again, I dreamed about these days 12 years ago...
When I was woken up by the call of my boss, the last thing I remembered was the resentful eyes of Damian.
The picture seemed to overlap with the moment he got to know my pregnancy in the elevator yesterday.
'I'll make you pay the price.'
Did he really say this word 12 years ago?
I shook my head to put these thoughts aside. We would never meet anymore and there's no need to worry too much about it.
I needed to rush to the banquet as my boss Mr. Keller ordered me.
It’s already 7 PM when I reached the banquet venue. Just as I grabbed a glass of juice to ease myself, I glanced at the entrance and someone entered.
My heart raced and instantly became untamed when I saw a familiar face of a tall man joining the party.
Wearing a formal suit, he walks with authority and great power. His aura was dark, complimenting his dark brooding eyes. His lips are tightly shut while his slightly disheveled hair dances every time he moves.
It was Damien Green. Why was he here?
Suddenly, I thought about the baby in my belly who accidentally got his sperm. Had he heard about the accident?!
Some well-known businessmen greeted him. Even those elegant ladies approached him with a sweet smile on their faces.
My eyes averted from him and gaped at the mini stage. This is a business party. Of course, he'd be here. He's the heir to the Green Corp.
Damn! Damn, Lucky! Why are you so unlucky?
Hell! Do I need to leave? I don't want him to see me.
"Lucky."
I jumped in shock when I heard Mr. Keller's voice.
"Lucky, let me introduce you to someone. He's gonna be the supplier of the materials for our newest project."
I swallowed hard. I think I even paled. Please… Don't…
"Come on, Lucky."
I swallowed hard again and before I could nod at him, someone approached us, causing my heart to go wild again.
"Mr. Keller."
My eyes widened. Mr. Keller stood beside me, completely exposing me to Damien Green whose eyes bore at me. I can see the shock and confusion in his eyes as he constantly glanced between me and Mr. Keller.
After a while, his lips turned grim and his expression darkened. "Lucresia…"
"You know each other?" Mr. Keller’s voice rang in my head.
I quickly shook my head. "N-No, sir."
I slowly looked at Damien again. His face became emotionless. His eyes shot me cold stares as his forehead creased.
"Well, Lucky this is Damien Green, the President of Green Corp. He's the one I talked about before. Actually, there would be a collaboration between our companies. Mr. Green, this is Lucky Salvador, the lucky charm in my company."
Mr. Keller even joked but he's the only one who laughed.
I cleared my throat and awkwardly nodded. Collaboration? I didn't know this. Being his secretary, how come I didn't know this?
Damien looked at me again. His brooding eyes were too much to handle. I gaped at him when he suddenly offered a handshake. "Nice meeting you, Miss Salvador. Mr. Keller's lucky charm."
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Green." I gave him a fake smile and finally excused myself to the powder room.
But I never thought that Damien would follow me to enter the same room. I even heard the door click, informing me that he locked it.
His eyes held my gaze in a very intense way as he slowly walked towards me.
Fighting the fear and anger in my heart, I ignored him and faced the mirror again but I was shocked when he pulled me and forced me to face him. He put his hands on my both sides as he slightly bent his body, crouching to me.
"What are you doing?" I managed to ask despite my untamed heartbeat.
His dark eyes locked my gaze. His sinful lips almost touched mine.
"So, that's why you dumped Peter Foster. You have another boy toy."
Boy toy? What is he saying? Did he mean that I have any illicit relationship with Mr. Keller? Was he insane?
I clenched my jaws. How dare he judge me like this when he knew nothing?!
He laughed as if he's amuse before he bore his eyes to me again. He moved closer, causing me to flinch and pushed my back against the sink.
"Tell me, among the men who f*cked you, who's better?"
Self pity suddenly arises inside me. Him belittling me is something unforgivable and unacceptable for me.
He tilted his head a little as his eyes glanced at my lips.
"Who's better, Lucresia? Keller? Foster? Your other boys or… me?"
He kept on insulting me and it's triggering my hidden anger.
"Tell me—"
"All of them except for you!" I cut him off with a sharp glare.
His eyes slowly went back to mine. I saw anger and sarcasm crossed his eyes.
"Really, huh? Let's see who f*cks better."
Because of shock, I was unable to react when he grabbed my jaws, tilted his head and claimed my lips.
Lucky's POVHe's kissing me and I couldn't move even a single finger. My hands and knees started trembling for some reason. His punishing kisses is taking my strength and breath away as if telling me that I am now at his mercy and I don't have any other choice but to accept my fate.His kisses are dominating as if introducing himself as the owner of my body and soul.No! I can't let him do this to me!I sucked my breath when he pulled away for a second only to attack my lips again in a much deeper and intense kisses."Damien—hmm!" I tried to break free, trying my luck to push him away but to no avail.He's just so strong or I was too weak to fight back?Suddenly, the memories of our past visited my mind again.I remember his soft and gentle kisses. He was patient. He was sweet. He was understanding. But now… the Damien I knew is completely gone. He's changed. He's become a monster. There's no traces of the Damien I loved anymore. He's a completely different person. And I did this to h
Lucky's POVI was massaging my temple while sitting on my chair. My head is aching. I lack sleep because I admit I'm stressed out because of what's happening.Peter cheated. Damien came back and he wants revenge. I can still remember his painful words. His insults. His punishing kisses.And mom… I don't know what to tell her. I know she's thinking about what happened between me and Peter. I couldn't even tell her that I'm pregnant. God!"Miss Salvador, someone's waiting for you in the lobby."My forehead creased after I received a call from the lobby. I'm not expecting someone and if it's Peter again, I don't know what I'd do. He never stops pestering me every single day. If he loves me, he shouldn't have done that in the first place. Now, he's chasing me.While riding the elevator, I couldn't help but to feel irritated.Last night Peter caused a commotion in my apartment building, now he wants to ruin my day.I gritted my teeth after I reached the lobby. My eyes landed on a familiar
Lucky's POVI paused in front of my door when I saw mom inside my apartment, sitting on the couch while silently looking around. She didn't inform me that she's coming.She immediately felt my presence. She looked at me and smiled."Lucky, darling. I'm sorry I didn't inform you I'm coming."I nodded and kissed her cheek. "Have you eaten yet?""I already ate. I just came to talk to you."We sat on the couch. I held her hand. There's hesitance in her eyes as she looked at me with a serious face. I know she wants to know about what happened between me and Peter. She likes Peter for me, but after this, I don't know what she would think and do."Mom, I'm sorry. Are they messing with you? I mean, Peter's family?"She heaved a sigh. "Once. His mother went to our house. And Peter paid a visit. He's apologizing but he didn't tell me what happened. What really happened, darling? I want to know.""I don't want you to worry, mom. All I can say is we're not meant to be with each other?"She looked
Lucky's POVI did everything to avoid Damien the whole day. Mr. Keller and the others started inspecting the island, particularly the spot where the hotel will be constructed. I was listening to them, following them everywhere they went but I kept my distance from Damien. Whenever I see him looking at me, I will immediately look away and move away from him."I want to put glamping domes here, Architect, Engineer." The owner has been talking about the things he wanted for the resort to Mr. Keller and Damien.My eyes remained on Damien as he listened to the owner of the island. He's so tall and lean compared to the other men here. He stood out among them and I can't help but admire how he reached his dreams of becoming an Engineer. He fulfilled his dreams. I envy him but I didn't regret my decisions back then.After the inspection, Mr. Keller told us to take a rest. There are cabins here and I'm staying with the two female engineers from Damien's team."Hi, you're from Mr. Keller's team
Lucky's POVA ray of sunshine kissing my face woke me up from my deep slumber. I slowly opened my eyes and gently rubbed them while searching for my phone on the bed but I failed to find it.I jumped on the bed, shocked with a heated face after I realized I'm not in my supposed cabin. Fragments of memories started rushing in my mind as my lips parted in shock.My heart started beating in a fast pace as my breathing became rugged.I moved my legs a little. I feel sticky between my thighs.Sucking my breath, I looked around. Damien must be here.God! What have I done? I shouldn't have given in to him. I shouldn't have let him kiss me and pleasure me like that. I shouldn't have let lust rule me. I was stupid! I was so freaking stupid."Stop acting like I fcked you last night. I just had a taste to see if you still taste the same."That brazen tone got my attention. I turned to him as anger started rising inside my chest.My heart was bewildered as my eyes checked his whole body.He's wea
Lucky's POV"Lucky…"I froze and stared at Peter standing in the middle of the lobby. He's holding a bouquet of flowers while looking at me with those pitiful eyes.I clenched my jaws. What is he doing here? Is he really gonna mess with me every fcking day?I ignored him. I continued walking towards the elevator, not even paying a single glance.He followed me, but I glared at him and pushed his flower. It fell on the cold tile."Lucky, please talk to me…"I bore my sharp eyes at him. "Didn't I tell you we're over, Peter?""Lucky… Please! I'll do anything and everything. Just please forgive me. Let's start over again, hmm?"I shook my head. "No, Peter. What you're asking is too much. Even talking to you is already too much for me. I don't want to see you anymore. I made it clear to you last time, right?"My cold emotionless eyes remained on him as I stood inside the elevator until it slid close.His eyes are full of guilt and regrets. But it's too late. It's too late!I paused on my w
Lucky's POVI was hugging myself while Damien grabbed Peter and pushed him out of my apartment. I gripped my torn shirt and chewed my bottom lip, trying to hide my body.When Damien came back, he took his jacket off and threw it on my face. He angrily bore his eyes at me."What was that, Lucresia? Why did you let him in?"Is he really blaming me?I shot him cold glares as I threw his jacket back to him. He clenched his jaws and looked at his jacket that fell on the floor."Thanks for saving me. You can now leave, Damien."He laughed sarcastically and kicked the coffee table. I squeezed my eyes closed. Damn him!"He almost raped you! How are you so calm?"I looked at him with nothing but coldness. "You did the same not a few days ago. What's the difference?"He gritted his teeth. "You gave in to me, Lucresia."A lifeless smirk curved in my lips. "Maybe? Maybe I was too horny that night. I didn't realize I gave in to you.""What did you say?" His voice roared like thunder.I languidly p
Lucky's POVThird week of my pregnancy, I went to my OB-gyne to have my check up. I'm relieved and happy knowing that there's no complication and everything is normal."Your cravings will start as early as 5 weeks. And then morning sickness will follow. It will stop in your second trimester and your cravings will eventually stop in the third trimester. Prepare yourself, Miss Salvador."I smiled and nodded. "I'm prepared, doctor. I'm even excited to see the gender of my baby."She chuckled. "That's normal. By the way, continue taking your vitamins, okay? I'm happy for you."After my check up, I went straight to work. As usual, Damien is in the company again. He's inside the conference room with Mr. Keller and they're talking about something.I was doing my work when my phone started vibrating. I quickly picked it up after seeing my mom's name on the screen."Mom…"[Lucky, Peter is in the hospital.]I paused. I don't know why I found myself looking at the glass wall of the conference ro
