Taming the Mayor's Wrath Chapter 13: Lucas Pretension
When I turned to face the store's entrance, it was as if ice water had been thrown all over my body. Lucas was standing there, glaring at us with bloodshot eyes. His lips were drawn in a grim line, as were his brows. He was clearly suppressing his rage, but it was still evident in my eyes. Looking into the corners of his eyes reveals his attitude. Oh my God! Is this what I was saying before? It happened in a matter of seconds after I thought about it. Is this the answer to my question about what would happen if Lucas found us here? I am just kidding, Lord; why did you give easy answers to my questions? Adeline, what will you do now? Think about it quickly! I have no doubt that he saw how that man hugged me. Lucas undoubtedly witnessed that. His gaze shifted from me to Dominic. I can not put into words how much hatred he had on his face. The two of them kept staring at me as if they were fighting for something. I knew I was in a bad situation. The first thing that came to mind was t
Taming the Mayor's Wrath Chapter 14: Accusations
"Are you going to make a change over time? Will we be able to mend our broken family? You do not seem to remember who you are. What the heck is this? You did not have to wait long to see him again—it was only one day after you were released from the hospital, Adeline!" he pointed me.His booming voice echoed throughout our room. "How much longer will you make me look foolish, Adeline? Answer me!" When we got back from the park, he immediately brought me to this room. Allowing Luke to enter his room first was a cunning plan to hide the fact that he was mistreating me. The rage that was consuming him at the moment was beyond his control. Because of his rage, both of his shoulders swung up and down repeatedly. He placed both hands on his waist, implying that if he did not do it, he would physically harm me. I know it is only a matter of time before he makes a threat against me. I can not blame him because I was also at fault. "Lucas..." I tried to explain, despite the fact that I knew
Taming the Mayor's Wrath Chapter 15: His Evil Side
It makes sense now why he is so resentful of me. Now that I know his perspective, I can relate to him. I think it is very hurtful to give divorce papers to a partner in the middle of a heated argument. That was probably one of the things I did to set the groundwork for him to never trust me again. I think I was the one who broke it. And now that it is my fault, I am supposed to feel bad about myself? "Are you happy with how things are between us? To be honest, I gave everything to you. Where is Dominic good at? In the making of promises and keeping them, or in flowery words? Satisfying your needs in bed? Is he a better partner than me? Does he have everything I do not have? Let me know!" He uttered as if I could give him an answer. "Do you know what hurts more, Adeline? He has been my best friend since I was a child. We spent our childhoods together. That guy you considered cutting me off to hurt me is my best friend!" The low tone of his voice indicates that his inner self is grad
Taming the Mayor's Wrath Chapter 16: Beast Punishment
Lucas's menacing glare intensified and his jaw tightened even more. I wanted to run out of this room, but I felt numb all over, so I pushed against the bed's other side in an attempt to hide, and instead of listening to his order, I fled. He felt as though examining every inch of my body—from my head to my toes—would persuade me to comply with his wishes. I took a forceful swallow after another, trying to calm myself. I have no more explanations or reasons to give him at this time. All he asked of me was to accept his words and deal with the fallout. Follow whatever he instructs me to do. I should give him all he needs from me so that we can finish it and get some rest. After he got what he wanted, there was no way anyone, not even a strand of my hair, could be hurt. Adeline, you simply pretended to be ignorant and turned a blind eye. Like earlier, I know it will not change, so I do not want to keep begging with him. I will exhaust myself trying to explain that to him, but he will no
Taming the Mayor's Wrath Chapter 17: Cry of Pleasure
There was silence as my tears flowed. I notice and feel a big difference between what Lucas did last night and what he does now. If the previous night was filled with affection, the following day was filled with resentment. One of his hands managed to work its way through my face. It reached as far down as my neck, towards my breasts, with the back of his hand. I had to stifle a little groan as he applied pressure to it. My neck was the source of the pain Lucas was giving me, and his kisses had not yet managed to break through. He is biting the skin on the back of my neck to intensify the ecstatic feeling as if he has gone insane. "Lucas, you are making things hard for me." Though I was certain he heard me, he did not seem to take any notice of my words. Using both of my trembling hands, I attempted to push him away from me by gently lifting his body, but all he did was fall closer and closer to my body. I have the feeling that he only intended for it to cause me additional discomfor
Taming the Mayor's Wrath Chapter 18: Changes
LUCAS POV I waited for Adeline to reply, but even though I recently completed everything, she has not responded as of yet. She can remember every detail, I have no doubt about that. And just pretending that she was not remembering anything. I first got to know her when we were both in college. She is the type of person who, once I catch her in the act of lying, will not stop until she gets her way. I care so much for her that I find it impossible to let go of my affection for her, despite everything that she has done to me. At the end of the day, I still make an effort to forgive her in the hopes that she will eventually alter her current course of action. "Are you really not going to answer my question? It is now up to you to make a decision. I will not compel you to respond." Even though I will not acknowledge them, I have noticed a lot of strange behaviors and changes in her since the accident. My wife appears to have made significant advances. Her eyes are innocent to begin with
Taming the Mayor's Wrath Chapter 19: Past Argument
While in the restroom, I made the decision to quickly take a shower for myself. I know full well that my wife, Adeline, will not move until she feels more at ease with me. I can scare her and make her believe that I will do something unpleasant for her, but she will not get out of bed. When I leave the bathroom, I do not want to have another argument with her if she keeps ignoring my requests. For whatever reason, I am just afraid. I adore her unconditionally, and even though I am aware that the things I did to her caused her physical and emotional suffering, I already deeply regret what I did to her in the past. The fact that I forced her to do this was my fault. Although skepticism occupies the other half of my mind, part of it concedes that Adeline might be right and she does not remember anything. My patience would have lasted a very long time for her, but she used it all up, so she had no right to hold me responsible. That was the reason I was always angry. "Adeline, could you
Taming the Mayor's Wrath Chapter 20: Almost Caught
I gave up trying to win her over after that. Adeline did not annoy me at all in the days and weeks that followed. She never mentioned the divorce to me again. Her actions and words seemed completely meaningless, and I could not help but wonder if maybe she was just trying to get my attention. Our son and I have not spent much time outside lately, so this weekend I decided to make the most of our time together. She is someone I know very well. Without me, she is unable to survive. Since we first started dating, I have been her entire universe. Additionally, I used to witness her frequently engaging in this behavior when she was feeling uninspired by her life. Nevertheless, she has never before discussed the divorce publicly until now. Gradually, my complacency increased. Adeline had stopped talking about it. As a married couple, we go back to our old habits of sharing a bed and having sexual relations. All of a sudden, it felt like everything was back to normal for us. Adeline must be
