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 54

Lucien opened the door to his home and stepped into the room. He was expecting his daughter to throw herself at him like he was used to her doing. She did not. 

Where is she? He wondered as he stepped into the empty room.

 The room was unusually quiet.

"Maybe Star and Aurora are in the art room or in Rorie's playroom," he said to himself even as an unsettling feeling began crawling up on him.

He did not give it any more thought and proceeded to go upstairs. His footsteps echoed in the hallway, amplifying his sense of unease. He had this odd feeling that there was something missing in the house. His legs took him to his office. He opened the door and stepped in. He dropped his bag on the couch and removed his suit jacket as he went out the room again. He went to his room and dropped the jacket onto the bed.
