Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 82: LOST IN RUT (R18+)
ELI'S POVThe air in my moonlit bedroom thickened with the raw intensity of Lucen's rut, his alpha pheromones crashing over me like a tidal wave, making my knees weak and my body ache with need.The scent was intoxicating... musky, dominant, pulling me under until I could barely think straight. Our lips locked in a desperate kiss, his mouth claiming mine with a hunger that left me breathless, tongues tangling as I moaned softly into him.I pulled back just enough to gasp for air, my lips tingling and almost swollen from the fierce pressure of his kiss. ”Lucen... it's...," I whispered, my voice shaky, eyes locked on his.He didn't waste a second. Without breaking eye contact, Lucen started stripping off his clothes hastily, his fingers yanking at the fabric as if it offended him.Shirt first, then pants... every movement deliberate, his gaze burning into mine like he was daring me to look away. I couldn't. My eyes drank in the sight of his perfectly sculpted body emerging in the soft
Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 81: PRE-RUT
ELI'S POVI woke up to a scent before I even understood why my eyes were opening.It was overwhelming. Cedarwood... deep, grounding, the kind of aroma that makes a tree feel like it’s rooted in your bones, mixed with bergamot, sharp and intoxicating, slicing through the night air. The fragrance flooded the room so thickly it felt like I was breathing it instead of air. My chest tightened instantly, my body reacting before my mind could catch up.“…what—” My voice comes out hoarse as I push myself up, rubbing my eyes, still half‑lost in sleep. I blink once, twice, trying to focus. The scent presses against me, a living thing, and then the room settles into a single, crushing awareness.Alpha. Strong. Overpowering. Uncontrolled.My gaze snaps across the room, heart hammering against my ribs as the flood of realization crashes into me all at once. And then I see him.“Lucen…?” My throat claws at the name, a tremor slipping through the syllable.He’s on the couch, his body tense, shoulder
Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 80: THE SHIFT
LUCEN'S POV The shift didn’t happen all at once. It never does with someone like me. From the outside, nothing changed. I was still controlled. Still distant. Still exactly what everyone expected the Alpha of this estate to be... cold, untouchable, ruthless, and unaffected. That was the image. That was the truth I chose. But the problem was… I started noticing things I shouldn’t. Him... Eli. It began subtly. Unintentionally. I would find my attention drifting without permission, drawn toward him like something instinctive, something ingrained beneath logic. Eli would be across the room, doing something entirely mundane... reading, arguing with a guard, muttering complaints under his breath... and somehow, my gaze would settle on him and stay there. Too long. “Are you going to keep staring,” Eli said one afternoon, not even bothering to look up from his book, “or do you actually have something to say?” My gaze snapped away immediately. “I wasn’t staring,” I replied flatly. He s
Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 79: STILL MAD
ELI'S POVThe car fell into silence after that. Lucen leaned back slightly against the seat, his expression once again composed, unreadable. The intensity from earlier hadn’t completely disappeared... I could still feel it lingering in the air, but now it was buried beneath that familiar cold mask he wore so easily.Too easily. My fingers curled slightly against my lap. He’s still angry. Of course he is. I glanced at him from the corner of my eye. He wasn’t looking at me anymore. His gaze was fixed forward, distant, like I wasn’t even there.That shouldn’t bother me. It shouldn’t. Our relationship was a contract after all. But it did. “…you’re not going to say anything?” I asked, breaking the silence.No response. Not even a glance. I frowned slightly. “Lucen.”Still nothing. Seriously? I exhaled quietly, leaning back against the seat. Fine. If he wants to play it like this… “Are you going to stay mad the whole ride?” I muttered, crossing my arms.Silence. I clicked my tongue softly.
Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 78: REACTIONS
ELI'S POVEverything felt too close.The car. The air. Him.My back pressed against the leather seat, chest rising unevenly as I tried to steady my breathing, but it was useless. Lucen’s presence swallowed everything... his scent, his heat, the way his body caged mine in like there was no space left for anything else to exist.“You’re mine, Eli. That’s all that matters.” The words echoed in my head long after he said them, heavy and unyielding. A promise. A warning. I couldn’t tell which one weighed more.My fingers were still gripping his shirt. I didn’t even remember doing that. Maybe... it's instinct or maybe it's intentional... I don't know.Slowly… I loosened them. But I didn’t push him away.Why? My chest tightened at the realization. Because I don’t want to? No. That wasn’t right. Or maybe… it was. And that terrified me more than his jealousy ever could.“Lucen…” My voice came out softer than I intended, still uneven from the kiss, from everything. “You’re overreacting.”The m
Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 77: HIS CLAIM
LUCEN'S POVI never liked crowds. The hum of strangers and the anonymous chatter... it all felt like a tide trying to wash me out of the world I had built for myself. Yet today, I found myself in the middle of a busy mall, the kind of place that Eli loved because it reminded him of mornings spent with his mother. I had followed him, not out of affection but out of habit. Habit, after all, is what keeps a man from spiraling when his protection is an unpredictable animal.Eli was standing at the stall, he was looking at the row of body soap. He looks like he was dissecting each product, comparing their ingredients or maybe their prices.I saw him before Eli even spoke a word. The stranger stood too close, his presence a thin blade cutting through the thin veil of personal space I had drawn around Eli. He moved with a practiced ease, slipping his hand into Eli’s space as if claiming a seat at a table he’d never been invited to. His grin was the kind that makes strangers think they own t
Cherish Me, Daddy CHAPTER 42: NOOM
ELI'S POVThe water was a black curtain, the pressure a cold hand that pressed against my ribs. I could feel the world shrinking to the dim glow of the ship’s hull far above, a distant lantern I would never reach. My thoughts were a tangled skein of regret... Lucen’s icy stare, Liam’s cruel laughte

ELI'S POVWhen Marin pulled the boat free of the tide and dragged it onto that jagged stretch of rock, the moon was a thin sickle hovering behind a veil of clouds. It is already midnight. I could still taste the brine on my tongue, the cold that had gnawed at my ribs the moment the sea tried to cla

LUCEN'S POVThe ocean answered me with nothing but roaring wind and crashing waves. For a fraction of a second, I was frozen on my knees, palms braced against the slick deck, saltwater soaking through the fabric of my trousers. The shattered glass glittered beside me like fragments of a bad omen. M

ELI'S POVPowder...My brows knitted. That wasn’t there before. My stomach tightened.The ship tilted slightly as it cut across a stronger current. I steadied myself against the railing, but my vision blurred unexpectedly.That’s strange.My limbs felt heavier than they should. The wind seemed loud
