Carol gasped in fear but the next moment she calmed down as she understood who it was, his touch, his smell, she knew everything about him, she didn’t say anything and stood there silently.
Lucas held her waist, pulled her closer to his hard chest, her back was touching him.
He started placing wet kissed on her neck, saying, “Baby your punishment was so tough, it’s been so long you started sleeping in girl’s room”
“You don’t have any idea how much I missed you”
Carol was standing there but his words were triggering her emotions, but she tried to hold back her tears and Lucas continued, “Baby, please don’t give me such punishments”
“You know I can’t sleep without you in my arms”
“You know every day I purposely came late at home so that you are asleep and I can sleep holding you”
“But you know it’s very uncomfortable to sleep on kid’s bed”
“Baby, please come back to our bedroom so that…”
Before he could continue Carol turned abruptly and said holding back her tears strongly, “So that you can fuck me thinking about your ex-wife, love of your life”
Lucas can see she was hurt; he was unable to understand the reason.
Lucas tried to speak but Carol didn’t let him, “Why you had to do this to me, you loved her so much and you had fair chance to be with her then why you came back to me I never asked you to come back to me”
Carol started crying by now but she continued, “Why.. why.. why you did this to me…I forgave you for all the nasty things you have done to me, but what I get in the end…. having two children of yours and that too because you raped me”
Lucas lost control of her last statement, which is the pain of his life, and it pains him to hear about it.
He pinned Carol on the wall and kissed her roughly, she was punching his chest with her small fists but nothing was working.
At first, Lucas was kissing her roughly but in some time his kiss turned gentle telling her how much he loves her.
Carol calmed down a little and said tears rolling down her cheeks, “You don’t love me”
Lucas still didn’t let her hands go which were pinned to the wall and said, “Really, then you tell me whom I love”
Carol scoffed and replied, “It is very much clear whom you love the most, after her death you don’t like to be with me, you behave like you have lost your life”
Lucas picked her up in bridal style and brought her inside the room laid her on the bed and hovered over her blocking all her movements and said, “You really think I would love that kind of woman”
Carol looked another side and said angrily, “If you are not in love with her then why are so sad after her death and that to after what she tried to do to our babies”
“If not for Mili, I would have lost my daughters”
Lucas felt very sad after listening to Carol, he said in a pleading tone, “Baby believe me I only love you and about being sad after Catherine’s death so yes I was sad”
This statement broke Carol’s heart in a thousand pieces.
Lucas continued, “Or I would say I was more of angry, angry on myself to trust such woman in my life, to bring such woman in my family, to give so much importance to her in my life”
“Do you know from the day I saw her pointing gun at our daughters I felt like I was responsible for this”
“I was blaming myself to be such a fool to trust such woman”
“I am telling you baby I would have died if she succeeded in hurting my daughters”
Saying all these Lucas had tears in his eyes.
Carol felt her hurt breaking apart seeing his tears, seeing his guilt, seeing his regret. She knows Lucas is not someone who lies for his benefit.
He has always been a person of his words and he makes sure he speaks out his heart.
Lucas said leaving her wrist and cupping her face, “Baby believe me, it took me some time to understand my feelings towards you, but I was in love with you from the time I saw you first time in my Dad’s study room”
It was surprising news for Carol, Lucas continued, “Yes, from that time you were always in my mind, I tried to hold my feelings for you because I was married man”
“I was seeing you face everywhere, I wanted to keep you by my side all the time, In fact I fucked Catherine once seeing your face, I felt bad for Catherine thinking that I was cheating on her”
“There were many nights that I spent in front of your house after I walked out of the aisle, because you left the job and I was unable to see you”
“I was still trying to hold back my feelings but when I saw you hugging your friend I lost all my senses, it felt like someone ripped out my heart from my body”
“Whatever I did, I regret for it but at that moment I lost all the senses of what is right or what is wrong, at that moment I only knew that I can’t leave without you”
“And anyone tried to take you away from me; I will burn that person alive”
“Believe me Baby, after meeting you I understood what love is, what it actually feels when you love someone truly”
Carol was baffled hearing his confession, she was lying under him dumbstruck and Lucas continued, “I always loved kids and when Catherine walked in, in the church I followed her for my baby not because I loved her”
