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 22

Starlet sat in her room hoping she didn't look as beaten up as she felt. She was on a video call with Xiamie, Charlotte, and Octavia. Xiamie was at her company working on her next line of wedding gowns. Charlotte was in a jumper on a couch in her apartment and Octavia was in what seemed to be a hotel. She was in a robe with her face fresh and her hair tussled. Star thought that marriage looked good on her. She was glowing.

"I can't believe you had a whole relationship you didn't tell us about," Charlotte said then paused, "Actually… that's the kind of stuff you do, so never mind."

"I can't believe you eloped," Star said humorously, "Your mom will freak out when she finds out."

"I'll deal with that when she finds out," Octavia said, "She'll probably be happy I got married at all."

Octavia's parents and Star's in-laws were off the grid and news was getting to them a little late.

"I can't believe you got married," Star told her honestly.
