Catherine swallowed with her eyes closed and her lips slightly open, a moan escaped her lips when Lucas slid two fingers under her panties, "Lucas..." She moaned, lost in the sinful desire as her ex-boyfriend's dad moved his fingers against her rosy flesh... *************** Catherine, a young mother of two who came to the city with the hope of finding her twin's father only to be denied and deserted by him, found herself entangled in a forbidden web of craving.

View MoreLucas's POV. As I watched Catherine hurriedly make her way towards me, my heart clenched with a mixture of worry and anger. The sight of Lauren, my own son, attempting to woo Catherine back after all the pain he had caused her, ignited a fire within me that threatened to consume everything in its path. I wanna deal with him but I'm holding back because of her and her kids. I don't want to cause any drama in her life, she's just climbing the Hall of Fame and I won't do anything to disrupt her goals. "Red," I called out as she reached me, her eyes darting nervously toward the car parked nearby. "Are you alright?"She nodded, but I could see the lies in her eyes. She was in confusion and I wish I could sort out everything but Lauren is an idiot, a very idiotic human who would do anything to satisfy his male ego. As we got into the car, I couldn't shake the feeling of anger bubbling in me. How dare Lauren show his face here after all this time? How dare he think a few apologies and gr
Catherine's POV. I stood up, frozen in disbelief, Natasha's voice broke through my stunned silence. "What... What the hell does he think he's doing?" she asked and that was the exact question swirling in my mind. I tried to respond, but words failed me. All I could do was watch as Lauren approached, surrounded by a group of people bearing gifts of all kinds; ranging from bouquets of flowers, gift boxes, cakes and the most surprising one; a beautiful flower statue that was created to look just like me. My eyes were drawn to Lauren, dressed impeccably in a tuxedo, his demeanor exuding confidence and charm. Despite my shock, I couldn't deny his cuteness, though it paled in comparison to Lucas. Lucas, with his strength, built, maturity, and the way his deep blue eyes always stirred something within me. Lauren was nothing like him, and the sight of him filled me with a mix of disgust and curiosity.. "Hello my beautiful beauty." Lauren said proudly as he halted his procession in front of
Catherine's POV. "I hate that boy, he's so fucking immature, I wish I had kicked him when I had the chance!" Natasha huffed as we sat in the cafeteria but I just signed, trying to think straight and make sense of the new development in my life. She was still fuming over what Lauren did and any time she saw something relating to it on social media, her anger would renew. "What's the plan to deal with that animal in human clothing? It's seriously getting on my nerves, in every possible way," she exclaimed, her frustration evident in her tone. I let out a heavy sigh, feeling the weight of the situation pressing down on me. "I'm trying to figure it out, Nat," I replied, my mind racing to find a solution to the latest twist in my already complicated life.I'm in a mess and I know it but how to roll out of the mess was hard. Lucas was furious and he was trying hard to control himself. I see that in him and I've tried all I can to calm him down but Lauren was not making things easy. He
Catherine's POV."What the fuck is wrong with you?! How could you do something so stupid?! Did you see the rubbish your action caused? Look at the news, Lauren, fucking look at the newspaper!" Lucas suddenly roared as he slapped the newspaper on the table, pacing. I could see that he was trying to control his anger."Chill, Dad. It can't be that bad," Lauren said casually, and I sighed lightly. Lauren way the most insane human I've ever seen. "You appeared out of nowhere and decided to do something dramatic! How did I birth a son like you?" Lucas huffed, running his fingers through his hair as he brought out his phone.Lauren relaxed in his chair, seemingly unaffected by his father's rage. "Relax, Dad. It's not the end of the world," he said with a careless shrug, his tone dripping with nonchalance.I shot him a dagger look before turning to look at the furious Lucas. I was equally nervous about the whole situation. After what happened at the party last night, I knew the media would
Catherine's POV. "Chill baby, you should keep it cool, and we'll be fine. I'll stay by your side through it all, alright?" He assured me as he led me out of the room, my hand entwined tightly around his.I nodded, grateful for his comforting words and the reassuring squeeze of his hand. "Alright," I replied, drawing strength from his presence as we walked."Are the kids okay?" I couldn't help but ask, my worry creeping in despite Lucas's reassurances."They're fast asleep, sweetheart. You need to stop stressing about everything and just breathe. You've got this," he replied, his voice a soothing balm to my disorganized nerves.His words were like a lifeline, grounding me in the present moment and reminding me that I wasn't alone in all these.I felt a mixture of emotions swirling within me: excitement, nerves, and a hint of fear. This party marked a significant milestone for me, the first time I would be thrust into the spotlight, surrounded by powerful individuals and scrutinizing e
Catherine's POV."OMG sweetheart, you look like a divine being," Natty complimented me immediately after I stepped out of the dressing room. "Those baubles you are wearing must be worth a small fortune, babe, they match your beautiful blue eyes," she added, her eyes holding this excited gleam that made me smile as I walked towards her."A large fortune, actually," I murmured a reply, moving my hand over the ornate sapphire and diamond necklace at my throat. "These 'baubles' are top-grade Kashmir sapphire.""Let me make a guess, a present from Daddy, huh?" She asked, and I just shook my head and turned to look at myself in the mirror. I looked almost unrecognizable; it felt as though an entirely new Catherine was staring right back at me.The beautiful red designer dress was exclusively made for me, and I looked like a princess. A real-life princess and Lucas made all this possible. For the first time in my life, I sat down and someone did almost everything for me while dressing up; my
Catherine's POVMy heart thumped like a drum as I dashed towards Lucas, feeling like I was in a dream. Today was beyond belief, a mix of nerves and excitement swirling insanely inside me. It was insane, but I had to keep it together, even though my insides had been tied in thousands of knots as I had watched Lucas from the crowd, the usually so steady and calm man, had looked like a bundle of nerves in the crowd. I wondered why he would decline his special guest seat to sit amongst the spectators and watch me."Red..." His voice reached me as I reached the door, and despite trying to hold back, tears welled up in my eyes again, a grin plastered on my face as I watched him. Watching him was so good; I was glad he was here for me.I stopped in my tracks, my heart pounding against my chest as I watched him approach. I had wanted to rush into his arms, but now, I hesitated, wanting him to come to me, to wrap me in a hug and tell me how proud he was. I needed to hear those words desperatel
Lucas's POV.My eyes twitched violently as the judge, whom I thought would announce the winner, began a long lecture about the competition, and good Lord! How I wanted to fast forward time.As he dragged on, I felt my patience wearing thinner than a sheet of phyllo dough. Seriously, was this guy paid by the word that comes out of his mouth? I looked at my nervous-looking Red, and I shot him a glare that could've melted a polar ice cap, silently wishing he would go straight to the fucking announcement. I was sure the crowd and the rest of the competitors were getting bored of his long speech already.Like what's wrong with these people? Haven't they had enough of the speech?The worst was that my brain couldn't process whatever gibberish he was saying, so I just sat on my seat, fuming and biting my tongue and inner cheeks to prevent myself from cussing."You should really relax, boss; you don't look so good," Marcos said, and I rubbed my face and turned to glare at him fully before say
Lucas's POV"I said cancel all the fucking meetings. I am busy, and I mean it. If you call me again because of any darn meeting, I'm gonna fire you and make sure you don't get a job anywhere again in your life!" I huffed angrily, ending the call with a decisive swipe of my finger.Such a silly secretary.My new secretary was a pain in the neck. I had explicitly instructed her not to bother me for anything, yet here she was, disrupting my day with trivial meetings... Again!"You have to calm down, boss," Marcos advised, his voice steady. "Catharine is looking at you worriedly," he added.I followed his gaze to where Catharine stood, her expression a mix of concern and apprehension. A low sigh escaped my lips as I realized the impact of my outburst on her. She couldn't hear me because she was inside, but the transparent glass door made my expression visible to her.Forcing a strained smile, I nodded at Catharine, attempting to convey reassurance despite my irritation. She responded with
