Loving Lucien

[This Book Is Complete] Starlet yearns for her husband to love her but the way he was coerced into matrimony makes him hate her instead. Their two and a half years of marriage has been a miserable one for Starlet. She has had everything she has ever wanted as the daughter of the richest man in their society but what she wants most, her husband’s heart has been closed off to her. Despite the hurt he has put her through Starlet feels she can make him love her. She refuses to see any other outcome. Although the idea of her husband looking elsewhere for female company has been so far, internet articles and images of him being with another woman spark something in Starlet. Up to this point she has been taking the punishment her husband has been giving her but she has had enough. She decides that she had to show him her strengths and make him love her. She forces him to write a post nuptial agreement (which only fills him with more bitterness toward her) and underhandedly gets rid of his mistress. Somewhere along the line her husband begins to warm up to her. She feels that they may have a good married life together. Their past however make Starlet question the affection he shows. If it is true or calculated. She struggles with the decision to keep him bound to her or if loving him truly would be to let him loose. She wonders if he would be happier without her and with a woman who claims to be his first real love.

Chapter 38

Lucien could not believe it. Heather was back and had stood in front of him. She had made excuses and had scurried away from them. She had spent the rest of the night avoiding him and he had been in too much shock to do anything.

He'd wanted to go after her and ask what she'd been doing the past few years. He wanted to know if she was fine. How she was doing? He wanted to know if she was seeing anyone and if she had moved on from him. He wasn't sure he wanted her to have moved on. He would be happy if she had because there was no future between them. He would be conflicted because he had invested his heart in her and the image of her with someone else wasn't something he could take without pain.
