His Defiant Bride Lucian's POV 2
Lucian slowly helped the woman into the bench noting how pale she still was. He was worried that her condition might be more serious than they anticipated. If only she would let him take her to the hospital. But he could tell that she was a highly stubborn person and tied not to get on her bad side by insisting. He watched as she rubbed her stomach for a few moments then an Idea sprung to his mind. “Give me a minute. I will park my car and be right back,” He told her and jigged off toward his car which was still blocking the empty street. Hurriedly parking the car near the portable coffee shop at the end of the park, he got off and quickly made his order. Maybe this will help settle her down a little bit if his guess is right. If it doesn’t, he will take her to the hospital. He watched from afar as he walked toward her. She pressed her hand against her mouth and her body convulsed as if she was trying to stop herself from dryheaving. Yupp… This was definitely what he thought it
His Defiant Bride Lucian's POV 3
“I am sorry to keep you waiting,” Lucian said as he made his way into the dean’s office.The older man looked up at him through his rimmed glasses and smiled.“That’s quite alright, I heard the details from James. Sorry that my granddaughter caused you so much trouble,” He said standing up and shaking his hand,Lucian was taken aback for a moment. Lucian barely got the information that the woman he met was the dean’s granddaughter. As expected for a man who runs the campus.He needed to be wary of him.“Not at all. I am glad that she seems to be doing well now,” Lucian answered with a professional smile.“Well then, let’s finally talk about this program. I can see that you finally made it happen.” “Yes, It took a few years of work. But we can finally sign on it…” Lucian said with a smile.“Although we might be signing on it. Research is a long time commitment, don’t expect too much too soon.” The dean said eyeing him with a serious look on his face and Lucian then smiled at him.“Thi

A few days later, Lucian found himself sitting in the lecture hall, staring at Thea as she animatedly explained how the relations between cells work to an engaged audience.He had known that he was late for the meeting and Haden had filled him in before disappearing off with that other professor.But he still wanted to come for the chance of meeting her again. She was already nominated by her seniors to lead the project. And from what he heard, this class wasn’t even hers to teach, and she was informed to fill in last minute. Something he learned from the receptionist who looked concerned after talking to her department head.Clearly, the man had a problem with not being chosen as the lead researcher for this project and was playing silly games on Thea. She didn’t look like she was filling in though. She was completely in her element.He looked around the hall for a few moments, he could note a few male students whose eyes followed her around like lost puppies. He was pretty sure that
His Defiant Bride Lucian's POV 5
“Here you go…”Lucian wanted to laugh so hard as he watched Thea’s expression as she looked from him to his car. But instead, he calmly maintained the door open for her.“We didn’t say anything about not driving together. Besides, Taking two cars in rush hour is kind of a waste of time don’t you think?” He explained and she raised one eyebrow.He smiled at her reaching out to her hand then slowly tugged waiting for her to walk toward the car. She reluctantly went along with him her delicate and elegans steps like a gently breeze passing by him and making him yearn for more.“You can’t have it your way all the time, you know…” She grumbled.“I already know that. I’m just trying to take whatever I can get away with for now. It’s going to be a long battle,” He admitted and she rolled her eyes in exasperation.She thought he was joking around… He wasn’t.“So… Where to?” He asked.“So now you’re asking for my opinion?” She retorted good naturedly.“You’re the one who knows these surroundin

“... Partiality is a real concern when it comes to academic research. I am sure that even your department suffers from backlash over things like this hence the obvious effort the dean was making for transparency,” Lucian said barging into the conversation.The meeting was going smoothly as they tried to determine who was going to be joining their program but he just had to disrupt the equilibrium.He didn’t know why he was doing this. He had spent the last few days agonizing over how to approach Thea and ask her what he had been meaning to ask for a while now. Deciding to come to this meeting even though his presence wasn’t necessary was partly because he simply wanted to see her after the accident.But when she came into the room, unlike how he anticipated seeing her for days, her eyes barely rested on him as she moved on to talk to Haden, which irritated him.“Lu-! I mean Mr. Salvator! That’s a rude thing to say!” Haden said looking at him as if he grew a second head. And maybe he d
His Defiant Bride A Change of Pace
“AAAh I’m an idiot…” Thea said with a deep sigh as she hung upside down on the couch. Peter passed by her avoiding her legs and walked over to his desk completely ignoring her. “Everybody, an idiot is right here, call that police…” Pen commented from her place on the couch in front of her and Thea wanted to sink deeper into despair. “What’s her deal anyway?” Pen asked “She’s been like that since she came back from dinner with Lucian Salvator,” Peter answered not bothering to look up from his paperwork. “Ugh… I feel like my brain is dissolving away from idiocy overload,” She said with a deep sigh burying her face into the cushion. “Woah, this must be serious… she’s in full breakdown mode,” Pen said, “What did you do to embarrass yourself this much,” Peter asked and Thea sighed again remembering that night. “Ugh… It’s just that it’s been a very stressful week. Lucian was joking around like always…” She lied omitting the proposal thing altogether, She was still unable to summon
His Defiant Bride Drunk Indulgence
“We should be heading back soon…” Peter said as he leaned backward and Thea nodded. He was right. The ambiance was so good and once he stopped pestering her about Lucian they were actually starting to have some fun, which is why she hadn’t noticed how time was passing. She picked up her phone wondering what time it was only to be surprised. ‘10 missed calls from Lucian Salvator’ The notification read and before she could unlock her phone, it was ringing again. Lucian was calling again. “Hello,” She answered wondering if something important was going on for him to call this much. But her alcohol fogged mind wasn’t really focused enough for her to worry. “You’re finally answering,” He answered in a strange clipped tone. “I’m sorry, I must have not heard the phone since the bar is a bit noisy. Is something the matter?” She asked hoping that it was nothing that required her immediate presence. She was in no shape to meet him not to mention have a normal conversation after what ha
His Defiant Bride Decision
Thea slowly opened her eyes wincing as the light hit them outright making her wince. She shifted in her bed then turned around to the side before sitting up wondering why she had forgotten to close the curtains. The killer headache she was suffering from was her answer. She shouldn’t have drunk that much last night. Last night… The thought hit her like a fully speeding truck leaving her stunned for a moment as memories of last night flooded her already-addled brain. “What… What did I do…” She mumbled as she sat on bed her hair curtaining her face as she leaned forward covering her face with both her palms in deep despair. As soon as she closed her eyes again, she could see it. Lucian’s face as it drew close to her. His disheveled appearance as he smiled down at her and licked his lips looking thoroughly pleased. The way his hand traced up and down her body. How his fingers tangled into her hair and grazed her ears ever so slightly as he pulled her further into his embrace. Thea
