Yes Daddy (by Red Inkling) novel Chapter 90

LUCIUS DEVINE

It was all over. My head was throbbing. My heart was aching and my fists were clenched tightly.

I was standing at the balcony, a hopeless look on my face. No, I wasn’t fucking hopeless. I was going to get Lisa back. She was mine and I was hers. And not even this would tear us apart forever.

“Fuck!” I cursed, throwing the glass of beer in my hand across the wall.

“You bastard!” I yelled at my own self, grabbing the bottle of beer and throwing it across the wall too.

“If only I hadn’t killed Seb!” I wanted to hit myself. I wanted to hurt myself.

I made Lisa cry. I was the reason she was hurting both physically and emotionally. I wanted to be the man behind her smiles and laughter but instead, this was what I turned out to be.

A man who made her shed tears uncontrollably and still couldn’t let her go.

I was selfish and I could never get over my selfishness when it came to Lisa. I could not let go of her.

I would do anything and everything to make her forgive me and love me even more.

Taking slow steps towards the shards of glasses, I crouched down next to it and picked a shard. I stared at the sharp glass for a few seconds before pressing it into my wrist.

The pains from it only made me feel better. It felt better knowing that I was bleeding after hurting Lisa.

If I could kill myself and yet be with her, I would have preferred to kill myself as a punishment for hurting her that much. I had failed to protect her and I had also failed woefully at keeping the secret of Seb’s death.

I was going to try hard to get her back but would Lisa ever…. Would she ever come back to me and love me as much?

MONALISA

As my mum pulled away from the hug and got onto her feet, I got on my feet too.

I didn’t want her to confront Lucius.

“Mum” I called, grabbing her wrist.

“Let go of me” mum seethed.

“Mum! That man is dangerous” the words left my lips faster than I expected them to.

But it wasn’t a lie. Lucius was dangerous. He had killed my father and Irene and definitely a lot more people.

“I don’t… I don’t want to lose you too” I pulled her close to me and mum buried her face in my shoulder, gently crying for a while before pulling away and wiping her tears.

She looked away from me for a few seconds, took in a deep breath and looked back at me.

“It’s… It is fine” she mumbled and reached her hand to my face, wiping my tears away.

“It’s fine. We will just leave here. We will leave this place. I… I can’t believe that he did this to us. I can’t believe he took care of us all these years when he was the one who put us in a hard situation in the first place” I could feel the pain in mum’s voice and I knew she was just trying to be strong right now.
