“Damn it!" Lucian cursed, quickly putting his gun away as he chased after Ava. He halted and glared at Kayla with anger. “Why the fuck did you let her inside?" Lucian's voice boomed through the house, filled with anger and frustration.Kayla shivered in fear, trembling slightly.“Don, I swear I tried to stop her but she didn’t agree!”. Kayla responded.Lucian's piercing gaze bore into Kayla, his eyes filled with a mix of disappointment and anger. Without uttering another word, he turned on his heels and made his way upstairs. As he reached his room, Lucian hesitated for a moment before slowly pushing the door open. His eyes were immediately drawn to Ava, curled up at the end of the bed, her body trembling with fear.“Little rose!”. He called, walking towards her. Lucian's heart sank as he watched Ava's trembling form before him. Her delicate frame seemed even smaller as she backed away from him, her eyes wide with terror. The fear emanating from her was palpable, causing a knot t

“Ava!" Maya exclaimed, her laughter filling the room. She leaned back in her chair, her body relaxed and open."What's with the numerous guards?." Maya asked, her eyebrows raised in curiosity. She leaned forward slightly.Ava let out a frustrated sigh, her eyes rolling dramatically. She crossed her arms over her chest."Well, if it's not your future brother-in-law Lucian saying I can only see Nathan if they follow me!" Ava exclaimed.Maya burst into laughter, her body shaking with amusement. She leaned forward, resting her elbows on the table.“Well serve you right!”. "It's not like I was gonna try to escape! Why is he so doubtful?" Ava said, her voice tinged with frustration. She leaned back in her chair.“Probably because you tried escaping the last time!" Maya replied, a mischievous smile playing on her lips.Ava raised an eyebrow, her eyes narrowing in confusion."Last time? What was the last time? I haven't stepped foot here since Lucian held me captive!." Ava said, using air quo

Ava tried to stifle her sobs, but they continued to escape her lips in uncontrollable bursts. She had cried so much that her eyes were starting to hurt. The pain of witnessing Kayla's brutal punishment was unbearable, and the guilt weighed heavily on her shoulders. It was her fault that Kayla had suffered, her actions that had led to this moment.She sniffed, her tears threatening to overwhelm her. How had Lucian changed so drastically? He had always been gentle and kind, never even harming a fly, let alone another person. When had he become so cruel?.The sound of the bed creaking caught her attention, signalling that Lucian had finally retired for the night. She hadn't laid eyes on him since he had ordered the brutal punishment of Kayla.Her heart pounded in her chest as she felt Lucian's strong arms wrap around her, his touch both comforting and suffocating at the same time. Lucian's voice broke through her thoughts, his tone commanding and harsh. "Stop crying!" he ordered, his gr

Lucian was not one to kneel for anyone, but there he was, on his knees, pleasuring her. His head buried in her thigh, each thrust of his tongue rewarded with a moan from her. Her moans were like music to his ears. Each moan was like a sweet melody to his ears, fueling his desire to please her even more."Me vuelves tan loco, love!" he growled, his voice filled with a mix of passion and longing. (You drive me so fucking crazy, love). He sucked her dry, trailing kisses from her thigh up to her neck.His gaze was intense as he slowly loosened her robe, allowing it to gracefully fall onto the table. His eyes fixated on her hardened, rosy nipple, causing his tongue to instinctively wet his lips. As he kissed her neck, he gently squeezed her breasts, savouring their softness in his hands before taking them into his mouth.A low, primal growl escaped his lips as he sucked, bit, and teased her nipples, alternating between each one. The sensations sent waves of pleasure coursing through her bo

Lucian, however, couldn't meet Nathan's gaze, a strange unease settling within him.In an attempt to mask his vulnerability, Lucian mustered a cold tone."Well, I guess you'll never know then," he replied, his words laced with a hint of bitterness."I do now," he declared, a glimmer of hope in his eyes.Confusion clouded Lucian's face as he questioned, "How so?."A mischievous smirk danced across Nathan's lips as he retorted, "Because you're here!".Lucian's heart skipped a beat, his mind racing to comprehend Nathan's words. "I... I am not your father," he stammered, his voice tinged with uncertainty."But you're old enough to give birth to me!"."Are you indirectly calling me an old man?" he asked, his tone laced with mock offence."Ain't you?" he playfully prodded.“Why didn't you call your father?" Lucian's voice was filled with curiosity and a hint of concern.Nathan's response was a quiet, almost defeated whisper. "I don't know who he is."Lucian's eyebrows shot up in surprise, h
