Dangerous Desires Novel

 83 Father and Son 

Luke. 

I followed my father’s scent. I thought he had gone to his office, but his scent led me to his bedroom. I had never been there before. Stacy never allowed me to go there; it just became a habit. 

The door was left ajar, and I walked in. I had never entered. This was my first time there. It was bigger than mine but had a sitting room and a bedroom just like mine. 

My father wasn’t in the sitting area, so I moved to the bedroom. My father was busy taking things out of the closet. I looked around the room, and my mother’s picture hung on the wall. I could not believe Stacy was sleeping in this very room. This was definitely torture. 

“Get the fuck out!” my father said to me, and I knew I had to apologise. 

“I am sorry, father. I am sorry I insinuated you had a hand in her death.” I said, and he looked up at me. His eyes were red and swollen. He was trying to see if I was genuinely sorry. His eyes softened a bit, and he sighed. 

“I am not over it, Luke. It is still like yesterday for me. Sometimes I wish we ate that meal together,” He said and wiped away his tears. 

“She was so full of life, and I loved her. We eloped, and it had nothing to do with money. I was not as rich as she was, but I was still running my family business then, and it would have picked up. When we got together, we merged the companies, with her having the larger shares. We decided the company would carry her name because I wanted to prove to her family that I wasn’t with her for money. I loved my wife, and I still do. I wasn’t going to give Caleb anything other than making his alpha of Woodclaw. He is my son too, and I felt it would be wrong to leave him with nothing. I had already done the transfer before Amirah wrote me that silly letter. Go and check the transfer dates on the documents. I put your names there when you were ten, Luke. Chloe left a will giving you her part of the company, and Eastwood, I gave you everything. Both mine and hers. If you don’t believe me, investigate. I only said she owned everything, so Stacy won’t make demands. Chloe was the reason the Moon business survived. We built Diamond corp together, I could not let another woman have a hand in it.” he said and sat on his bed. He wiped his tears and patted the space beside him for me to sit; I went to sit beside him.

She made a lot of advances toward me, but I loved Chloe, and I didn’t see her that way. She was young and persistent, so I discovered her issues. She never told me about Regan but confessed about her financial state. Her mother was ill, and they were in need. I helped her with some money, and she stopped working in the hotel. Soon she left, and I never saw her again. Throughout that time, Chloe was getting messages from different women I did not know. A guy was threatening her too, and we tried to find the bastard.
