Ana’s POV

They think I’ve given up.

I can see it in their eyes.

The guards don’t say it out loud, but I notice the way they look at me when they think I’m not paying attention—confused, curious, sometimes even uneasy, like they’re trying to understand why I’m not reacting the way they expect me to.

One of them dropped my food earlier, and when he bent to pick it up, he hesitated, glancing at me like he was waiting.

Waiting for what?

For me to snap? To shout? To remind him who I used to be?

  • Seducing Mr Lukers: A night to remember    115: Forever, Not Force

    Ana’s POVHappiness isn’t loud.It doesn’t arrive like a storm or crash into your life demanding to be noticed. It doesn’t shake everything around it until you’re forced to acknowledge that something has changed.It’s quieter than that. Softer.It settles into the spaces that once felt empty, into moments that used to feel heavy, into silence that once carried tension and now simply… exists.And somehow, that makes it more real.Life had changed.Not suddenly. Not in a way that erased everything we had been through, but slowly, steadily—in a way that didn’t demand attention, yet stayed long enough to become permanent.The house no longer felt unfamiliar. It wasn’t something I was still adjusting to.It felt like home.Not because of the walls or the space or the quiet that surrounded it, but because of what existed inside it now.Us.Our child slept peacefully in the room down the hall, her soft breathing grounding everything, reminding me in the simplest way that some things had surv

  • Seducing Mr Lukers: A night to remember    114: Love Without Fear

    Japhet’s POVThere was a time when I believed love had to be overwhelming to be real—loud, consuming, something that took over everything until nothing was left untouched, nothing left unchanged. It was something that demanded, claimed, and held so tightly that losing it was never an option.That was the only version I understood.The only version I knew how to give.And it had nearly destroyed everything.Now, standing in front of her—in a space that no longer felt like a cage, in a moment that carried no weight of control or fear or expectation—I realized something I had never allowed myself to see before.Love didn’t have to take.It didn’t have to break.It didn’t have to force itself into someone’s life just to exist.It could wait.It could learn.It could change.Ana stood a few steps away, the evening light soft around her, the quiet of the house settled in a way that no longer felt unfamiliar. It wasn’t something we were still adjusting to—it had become ours in its own slow,

  • Seducing Mr Lukers: A night to remember    113: The Family They Almost Lost

    Ana’s POVSome losses don’t fully happen.They almost do. They linger at the edge, close enough to feel, close enough to leave a mark without ever completely taking form. And somehow, that makes them heavier—because you see them, you understand them, and you realize just how easily everything could have slipped away while you were too lost to notice.I had lived in that space for too long—that thin, fragile line between holding on and losing everything.And now, standing here, watching him… watching us, I felt it again.Not as fear, but as awareness.Our child looked impossibly small in his arms. Too small, sometimes it seemed, for a world like ours—like something so fragile shouldn’t exist in hands that had once known only control, violence, and destruction.And yet, there he was.Holding her.Carefully.Not with confidence, not with the instinctive certainty of someone used to possessing what he touched, but with caution—like he wasn’t entirely sure how to do it, like he was afraid

  • Seducing Mr Lukers: A night to remember     112: Learning to Breathe Together

    Ana’s POVPeace is a strange thing when you’ve lived too long in chaos.It doesn’t arrive loudly or announce itself, and it doesn’t force you to notice it. It simply settles—quietly, almost carefully—like it isn’t entirely sure it’s allowed to stay.For the longest time, I didn’t trust it.I didn’t trust the silence that stretched through the house without breaking into something sharp. I didn’t trust the absence of tension, the lack of conflict, the way everything existed without the constant push and pull I had grown used to—the kind that demanded reaction, demanded emotion, demanded something to happen.Now, nothing was happening.And somehow, that felt unfamiliar.Japhet and I lived in the same space again—not as captor and captive, not as enemies, not even as something clearly defined. Just two people under the same roof, moving around each other without colliding, without forcing interaction, without turning every moment into something heavy.There were no fights, no raised voic

  • Seducing Mr Lukers: A night to remember     111: The First Choice

    Ana’s POVFreedom feels strange when you’ve forgotten what to do with it.For days—maybe longer, I stopped counting—I moved through this place without anyone stopping me, without doors closing behind me, without footsteps trailing close enough to remind me that every movement was being watched, controlled, measured.I could leave. That was the truth.The gate wasn’t locked. The guards didn’t block my path. No one stood there waiting to drag me back inside if I took one step too far.And yet, I hadn’t left.Not because I couldn’t, but because something inside me wasn’t ready to make that choice yet.That realization unsettled me more than anything else. For so long, everything had been about survival—enduring, waiting for the moment I could finally break free. And now that the moment was here, now that nothing physical was holding me back, I found myself hesitating.Not out of fear. Not out of weakness.But because things had changed.He had changed.Not in a way that erased what he ha

  • Seducing Mr Lukers: A night to remember    110

    Japhet’s POVI used to believe that if something mattered, you took it—no waiting, no hesitation, no standing at a distance hoping it would come to you on its own. You claimed it, held it, and made sure it stayed exactly where you wanted it to be.That was how I built everything I had. It was how I survived, how I became the man people didn’t question—the man who didn’t ask, the man who didn’t lose.But none of that worked here. None of it applied to her.For the first time, I understood that taking something didn’t mean keeping it. Sometimes, it meant destroying it.So I stopped taking, and I started learning something I had never needed before—how to earn.It didn’t come naturally. There was no instinct guiding me, no clear path, no certainty that what I was doing would matter, or reach her, or even be noticed. But I did it anyway, not because I expected something in return, but because it was the only way forward that didn’t repeat the same mistakes.The first time was simple—too s

But he glanced at me with his hungry eyes and forced himself on me.Groping my breasts in both hands, he started sucking my nipples. Making them hard, swollen and erected. I bite on my lower
