Dangerous Desires Novel

19 My Monster
Tia
The speed at which Luke left the house made me suspect the matter was urgent. Because I did not stay long in the bathroom.
When I got the MMS by one-thirty, I was shocked. It was from an unknown number. At first, I wanted to believe it was an old
picture, but it wasn’t. I was in shock. I wondered why Luke would lie to me about leaving Elisabeth. I wondered if he was just
playing me and using me as his pastime. I didn’t want to jump to conclusions until I got the whole story, but, damn, it hurt. They
had kissed.
A message came after the photo, and I read it. “Be careful how quickly you give your heart away,” It had no name attached to it,
and I knew somehow that Elisabeth did not send those photos herself. She must have asked someone to send the message and
image to me. Luke did tell me where he was going, but he did not tell me who he would be meeting there. It meant it wasn’t a
secret. I decided to wait patiently for him to come home and tell me what was happening. I could not stop looking at the picture,
and every time I did, I cried, wanting to believe it wasn’t real. Maybe photoshopped like what Stacy had done.
Although I could not stop crying, I was relieved when he entered the room by two in the afternoon; even if he was the one in that
picture, they never left the cafe, and they did not spend too much time together. It still hurt that I would see a picture of him
kissing her.
After Luke told me what happened, I was shaken. I did not want that kind of complication but sitting in the bathroom, trying to
gather my thoughts, it hit me that Elisabeth might have gotten pregnant deliberately and might be trying to use it to control Luke
and come between us. She was messing with the wrong woman. I braced myself and got over it in the bathroom. I knew exactly
how to make her lose. I wanted Luke to be comfortable enough to tell me anything. He must really care about me for her to try to
use this to control him.
I knew my resolve shocked him. I felt his relief, and I was glad we had crossed that bridge. “I am not mad simply because this
happened before our wedding, Luke,” I told my husband,” No more surprises please,” I pleaded with him.
Luke approached me and bent to kiss me, then placed his forehead against mine.
“Thank you, Tia.” he breathed, “I meant what I said in the tent. I will never cheat on you or do anything that will cause you pain. I
mean it,” he said, and I believed him. I felt it.

He kissed me with passion, and I returned the same. Then I remembered the oddity about the message I received and pulled
away from him. “Luke, I do not think Elisabeth sent the picture and the message,” I pointed out.
“Of course, she didn’t. She had someone take the picture and send it to you. I wouldn’t put it past her.” He said, and I shook my
head.
“No, it does not seem like it, Luke. Elisabeth always wants me to know she sent the pictures. All the messages she had sent
were with her name.” I pointed out.
“Maybe she got scared because I warned her to stop after she sent the last message that day..” he said, and I smiled and shook
my head. It was time to tell him the truth.
I went to sit on the bed and looked up at him.
“She never stopped sending those messages, Luke. She sent messages every day while we were at the resort. She did not
know we were together, so she tried to insinuate you were with her.” I told him, and he was shocked.
“Why didn’t you tell me, Tia!” he asked, surprised at my actions, and I sighed.
“There was no point, Luke. She would never stop. I just hoped that she would get tired one day and move one, and there was no
way I was changing my number for her sake.” I said, and he nodded.
“So you think I am being watched?” He asked, and I nodded.
“Someone is keeping an eye on both of us, and I wouldn’t put it past Stacy,” I said, and he shook his head.
“This is more Caleb than his mother. Stacy has no reason to split us up,” he said, and I laughed.
“Let us not jump to conclusions, Luke. Let’s just have it at the back of our minds that we are being watched for reasons best
known to whoever is doing it.” I said, and I knew my words frustrated Luke. It sucked to have people out to get you every minute.
I guess that was his life, and now it was mine.
“come on,” He said, holding my hand and urging me to get up. I wondered why and I had to ask.
“We will shower and then spend the entire day outside this mansion,” he said, and I felt my insides tingle because I knew exactly
what he meant by ‘showering!

Elisabeth’s predicament became a distant memory when he went down on me in the shower. He was rough and gentle at the
same time, and I loved it.
We ate lunch in a fancy restaurant, spent time in the public park and returned home at night. We couldn’t keep our hands off
each other. I wondered why I wasted my time pining over Caleb all these years. I remembered my initial reaction to the wedding
match. I was grateful we went through with it. Luke was showing me genuine love, and I was falling pretty fast.
We lay on the bed spent, my pussy was a little sore, but it was worth it. Everyone thought I was unfortunate when they joined me
with Luke, but currently, I was the wife of the most loving, handsome, responsible richest man in our country, and as things are, it
was evident that he was head over heels for me. I wouldn’t let Elisabeth, Stacy, or Caleb come between us.
I traced the outline of his nose while he lay on the bed. He wiggled his nose, and it was funny. How can someone that looked so
hard and domineering be vulnerable and gentle in my arms?
“Hey,” I said, and He turned towards me and smiled.
“What is it, Tia?” he asked sweetly, and his blue eyes were stunning under the tungsten light of our bedroom. He was perfect.
“How are we dealing with Elisabeth and your baby,” I said with a bit of difficulty, but I just had to accept that was our reality. He
must have picked the uneasiness in my voice because he sat up and pulled me close.
“I am so sorry, Tia. I wish I could go back in time and act wisely, but I can’t. I promise you that
even though I intend to accept and care for this child, our children will come first no matter what. Elisabeth deliberately got
pregnant, thinking that would force me to request for an annulment, but I can never leave you, Tia. You are the first person in my
life that is truly mine. I can never let go unless you leave me, and if you leave, I will search for you, and I won’t rest until I find you
and bring you back to me.” he said, and tears welled up in my eyes, Luke’s affection was deep, and I began to feel mine was
inferior compared to his.
“No pressure, Tia,” he said, picking up on my uneasiness. “I am willing to wait for you,” he said and traced my neck where his
mark should rest. He grazed his teeth on it, and I moaned. It tingled, and he drew me close and sucked the skin.
“Luke,” I breathed.
“Tia, hopefully soon,” He linked me wanting to claim me badly, and I wanted it too, but I was too scared for it.
Oven

“Hopefully soon, Tia, you will be fully mine, and I will be yours.” He said and kissed my neck. My wolf wanted to emerge, but I
controlled myself. We cuddled and slept in each other’s arms. Luke woke up pretty early the following day. His movement woke
me up, and I looked at the clock on the side stool. It was seven in the morning. “So early?” I grumbled. “I always go to work this
early, but you never cared enough to notice,” he teased me, and I smiled at him because he was right.
“I have ordered Bart to serve you breakfast and lunch here. I told my father not to send for you. I do not want you on their table
without me there. I know you will be resuming training with Caleb today. When you are done with everything, meet me at
Diamond corp.” He said, and I frowned, wondering why.
“Why?” I managed.
“Because we will be going house-hunting together. I have looked at some simple ones online, but I believe seeing it with help us
decide better,” he said, and I was shocked.
“You’re serious,” I said, noticing that he was serious about leaving the Moon Mansion.
“Yes, Tia. The only way our marriage will grow and survive is if we are out of this place. Away from Stacy and Caleb. As for
Elisabeth. I have sent you her number and blocked her line from my phone. I have told her she will be dealing with you.” He said,
and I raised an eyebrow at him.
“And how did she take it?” I asked, and he shook his head.
“Not so well, but it serves her right for trying to trap me with a baby,” he said with a tinge of anger, and I realised he was indeed
over her.
“Won’t you wait for us to at least have breakfast together before you leave?” I asked, trying to change the topic, and he shook his
head.
“I do not want to give Monica a lift, and I have things to do at the office before I resume as the new CEO,” he said, trying to put
on his tie. I got off the bed and helped him fix the necktie. Luke tried to kiss me, but I moved my mouth away.
“Morning breath,” I complained, and he held my head with his hand and kissed me fiercely,
I chuckled, and he held me close.
“Please come by the office, Tia,” He pleaded with me, and I assured him that I would.

I felt lonely the moment he left. I went to get ready for the day too. I had training with Caleb and kirk. Then I needed to register
for part-time medical school. So I needed to get prepared quickly
While eating breakfast, I decided to call Elisabeth. She answered on the first ring, and she was disrespectful.
“So he meant it,” were her first words; I couldn’t care less. “Hello, Elisabeth,” I said, and she did not bother to respond. “You
know what you are doing is shitty and cruel. Luke loves me, and you know he is only with you to keep his father happy so he can
keep the company,” she said, and I began to laugh. “If being with me is what it would take for him to own Diamond corp, so be it,
Elisabeth. Enough about me, now let us talk about you,” I said, and she was silent. I bet she did not expect the response she got.
“You are really a gold digger like Luke had insinuated,” she said, and I laughed. “You need to see the size of my excavator,
Elisabeth; shovels are for small timers,’ I said, and I knew she was getting frustrated. “Anything else I need to hear?” I asked her,
and she was silent. “Good,” I said, getting straight to the point, ” I will send you my email. I want a list of everything you will need,
and be mindful that before Luke signs the birth certificate, we will have a DNA test. What you will be receiving now is pure charity
until we are sure you are carrying a Moon,” I said. “Bitch!” she screamed on the phone, “Luke has no problem with my child. You
are jealous that I will be bearing his heir,” She said, and I laughed; if only she knew what Luke had planned out for her.
“Well, those are my terms,” I said. “I bet Alpha Aesop will feel differently when he knows I am pregnant,” She said, and I laughed.
“Elisabeth, I believe you are a wise young woman. We know no one cares, and Luke has moved on from you. Alpha Aesop will
not force his child to be with you,” I told her, and she laughed. “Yet he bought you for him,” She said, and I laughed.
“Exactly, Elisabeth. You were with him then, and yet he bought me for him. I am valuable,” I told her, and she screamed at me on
the phone.
“You are a psycho, Tia Lockwood. I hope Luke sees the evil in you before it is too late,” she screamed.
“I will be expecting the email then. Feel free to call me for other things. Have a lovely day.” I said and hung up.
I found Elisabeth’s tantrums amusing. It was clear she was frustrated, and Luke had indeed cut her off. I knew dealing with her
would not be easy, but I was willing to do it for the sake of my mate. I finished up and headed out. I braced myself for training
with Caleb. I hoped that he
would give me a break today and not spend the entire training lecturing me on why I should leave Luke and how monstrous his
big brother is. Yes, Luke was a monster, my monster.
