LOGINLucien’s POV"Natalie? This is not the right time for this..." The words barely made it past my mouth before her fingers hooked into the belt loops of my jeans, anchoring me to the spot…I swallowed hard…as I fought to clamp down on the sudden, violent surge of adrenaline and want. Every instinct in my body had no ounce of restraint I usually relied on to keep my head screwed on straight…"You always say that, Lucien…" she murmured. "…And yet, you never actually push me away…I want you buried inside me Lucien please…you want me to be? I am…"Before I could formulate a defense, she placed her lips just below my jawline…a slow kiss pressed into the hollow of my neck…I must admit… neck kisses are my weakness and I guess she already figured it out and the sensation was sickening…I took in a sharp breath as my hands moved on instinct, clamping onto her waist with a tight… unyielding grip, lifting her against me until there was no space left to breathe...She didn't hesitate…with a slow de
Lucien’s POV "What the hell was that?" I murmured to myself as I tried to zoom in a little bit into the camera feed so that I could see… even a little glimpse of what Camille put in Natalie’s bedsheets, but I couldn’t see clearly from the camera, so I had to go directly to her room to see what it was I couldn't make out the shape of it. I didn't want to just barge into her room right after she had barely settled down…she'd think I was losing my mind, hovering over her like a paranoid warden…so I leaned back, keeping my eyes glued to the camera feed…On the screen, I watched her go through her wardrobe, took a look in the mirror and changed into an oversized sleeping pajama… washed her face in the bathroom, and finally pulled back the duvet to slide beneath the covers…the moment she settled against the pillows…my gut feeling told me something was terribly wrong somewhere...That uneasy feeling didn't fade; Camille didn't do things without knowing…she’s fully aware that whatever she p
Lucien’s POVI stood outside Natalie’s room for several long seconds before rubbing the back of my neck where I had a slight ache… before heading downstairs toward my own room to clear my head...Before I could even reach my door...I was already exhausted from all that took place today so I needed some rest but I guess I should have known better that my father won’t let me have the peace of mind I wished for…"Lucien." He called out… when I was about turning my door knob to get into my room sometimes I wish my room was in fact upstairs and not downstairs… it would really save me a lot of stress…and unnecessary arguments from this god forsaken family…I stopped, exhaling a slow breath... I didn't want this conversation. I was already exhausted, and the last thing I had the energy for was playing the dutiful son."Yes, Father?" I lazily answered back not bothering to turn around immediately."Have you put Natalie in her room yet?" he asked in a low tone...changing the tone of his voice
Lucien's POV"Enough!" Father lashed out angrily as he walked angrily towards me…I stared at Father without saying a word…he looked furious, but unlike everyone else in the room, I wasn't intimidated.He slowly looked around before his gaze settled on me."Lucien…I've tolerated your disrespect for years. I've allowed you to yell at me, insult me, question my decisions, and call me every name imaginable…And I accepted it because I know you've carried resentment ever since your mother disappeared."“And don’t play the victim here when you know you are the mastermind behind everything…” I countered…“Mastermind?” He asked raising a brow at me… “Are you trying to say I planned all this?”“I’m not trying to say anything…I’m simply just stating the fact”"Fact?” He paused before continuing “…I will not sit here and watch you disrespect your brother and Camille. That is where I draw the line.""You draw the line?" I repeated. "That's funny.""What's so funny?""The fact that you think you h
Lucien's POV"Lucien, no!" Natalie's called out she pushed my hand to the side so the bullet didn’t touch Camille instead it hit the wall behind her…"What are you doing?" she shouted, looking back at me…I didn't answer…I just continued to glare at Camille…she glanced at the bullet hole in the wall before looking back at me with a worried look…"You're lucky she saved you today," I said calmly. "Next time, I won't miss… and pray to whatever God that listen that there don’t ever be a next time because I’ll be sure to put a bullet or two into your thick skull…""You've always had a talent for talking big…haven’t you?" She scoffed… “So you're really willing to turn against everyone you know because of some charity case?""What did you just call her Camille?"Camille shrugged. "You heard me loud and clear Lucien...""No," I replied, taking a slow step toward her. "Say it again if you dare..."Father stepped forward to stop me placing her hand in between me and Camille "Lucien end this now
Lucien's POV“What do you mean what’s the occasion?” Father asked mockingly…“You’re drinking wine… almost like you were expecting some good news… what could it be about?”“What are you implying Lucien?”“I’m just asking what must be the good news that makes you to celebrate with a bottle of wine… there must be something special happening today that I hope you wouldn’t mind telling me about”“Nothing really…I just thought I could have a few glasses before you all came back”“A few glasses? Is that why you didn’t bother to call when you didn’t see that we were home up till now?”"So," he said, "how was the grocery shopping?" I couldn't believe what I'd just heard."Grocery shopping?" I snapped. "Are you fucking kidding me right now?""Watch your tone." Father lashed out at me"My tone?" I lashed out bitterly. "…Two people almost lost their lives because of your little grocery shopping! Couldn't you have sent someone else?""There wasn't anyone else in the house.""There wasn't?" I aske
Natalie’s POV I never thought this day would ever come, a day when Lucien was this close to me and even on the same bed as me, the maid left after dropping off the message then I let out a sigh of relief as I peeked under my duvet… “Get the fuck out Lucien! What the fuck were you thinking?” He sl
Natalie’s POV There was no way I could duck and hide because he was already close enough, he could hear my breathing get heavy, my heart drummed in my chest as I stood still thinking of what excuse to tell him. “Natalie why are you going through my stuff?” “I’m sorry I didn’t see anything I’l
“Mum?” I sprinted for the door as I saw her walked past, still in that dream again I never get past every single time, probably a nightmare of some sort but I didn’t see any blood yet. I opened the door to check if mum was alright, she was right there, within reach then I stretched my hand forwar
Natalie’s POV This felt more than just a regular punishment, I just stared at him in disbelief, The darkness casting his large shadow over me…“Aren’t you going to leave or…”“I’m going creep” I was still trebling but I had to put myself together, I really didn’t think he would take the punishment
