"I've been three years away from you but I can't forget you. You're deeply etched here in my heart. That's why when my parents opened up again that they wanted me to marry you, I agreed. I said to myself before heading back here, I will make sure that this time, you'll fall for me no matter what. And thank God! I finally succeeded! You can't escape my charm!""Charm my foot!" I pretended to be annoyed. "Did you hear me say I love you?"He was stunned. He seemed to think. Of course, my heart is to the rescue. "I hate you!" I said and hugged my husband tightly."You hate me?""Yes.""Why is that?" Kier asked in a confused tone of voice."Because I've been waiting for a long time for you to tell me that you love me. Then now, you confessed your love for me while you were naked!""Love me, Fatima. I never stopped loving you. Tell me you love me too.""I think you used a potion on me." I caressed his face. The happiness I feel is unparalleled. "I love you, Mutant. I love you, Kier. I

Kier stood up and handed me a brown envelope. "You're my wife... legally." With trembling hands, I opened it. I gasped when I read what was written in the document. Our marriage certificate! "This isn't true. You said our marriage was fake?" My blood boiled. Did he trick me? Just to please our parents? I held my chest. "They knew about our plan. They tricked us." "Does this mean we're really married?" "Yes." "L-let's get a divorce." I approached him and held his hand. "I know I'm just a burden to you. I know you don't want to be tied to me, either. So please, give me back my freedom." "I can't..." "W-what?" Frowning, I looked up to see his face. "Didn't I say, I won't leave you even if you ask me to? I even said that here at the Santillan Mansion. A promise is a promise. The promise should not be broken, wifey." I blinked. I think I got dizzy from what he said. I just woke up. Who wouldn't be surprised when you wake up with the man you've been thinking about for days? "Do

It's been a week since I left Kier's house. From the subdivision, I took a taxi and asked the driver to take me to Tagaytay. I checked in at the newly opened hotel and restaurant in Tagaytay. While I was there I was thinking of leaving the Philippines to visit my brother in America. "Thank you," I said smiling at the woman who delivered my order to the table I occupied. I stirred my coffee and smelled its aroma. I tasted a slice of strawberry cake. Delicious! But I smiled bitterly. Earlier, I called my mother on the phone. I explained everything to her. I said don't look for me. I'm not ready to go home yet. I wasn't sure of anything anymore. I just want to get away. After drinking coffee I decided to leave Starbucks. I still feel the sadness inside me. All I want to hear from Kier is that he loves me. It's sad. But I will try to be happy. But it's impossible because Kier destroyed my ability to be happy. He is my happiness. I didn't have any trouble getting a taxi. When t

There wasn’t a moment of hesitation. His mouth was on mine, and I stopped breathing. He shuddered and there was a sound from the back of his throat, half growl, half moan. Little shivers of pleasure and panic shot through me as he deepened the kiss, parting my lips. I stopped thinking.The rush of sensations crawling across my body was maddening. Scary. Thrilling. His hands were moving down, under my shirt, his fingers skimming over my skin, sending a rush of blood to every part of my body."You can still say no..." he whispered, dropping small kisses along my face.I wanted to say no. I'm afraid to give in to what he's doing. But I couldn't disobey what my heart was whispering. I loved him. And I wanted to feel his love at least tonight.I might be a fool to think that way.Stupid as it is, I wanted to take the risk. I caressed his cheek and kissed him sweetly.His lips slid down my neck. And my hands went down. I ran my fingers down his chest, His stomach was hard, dipped, and rippl

Kier looked at his father with a smile on his face. "Dad, Fatima loves me." "My daughter, she used to talk about you when she was just a teenager. She would tell me how she hated you. But I know that it was the only way she could deal with her feelings. I always see her sneaking glances at you when you talk to Tristan, my son. When I tell her that her older brother is better at basketball, she gets annoyed. She said Tristan is my son. So I don't see that you are better at basketball than him. I know that she secretly admires you even when you were teenagers." "That's mainly the reason why we wanted you to get married. We saw you love each other. You can't admit your feelings for each other, so we made a way. When I accidentally saw Fatima's picture under your pillow before you flew to America, I talked to Carlo. I no longer had doubts that you love her," said Rodrigo and patted his son on the shoulder. "Y-you saw it?" Kier asked his father. It was his biggest secret. He kept a pict

"There's no reason for Kier to know about my feelings for him.""Why?" Kim let go of my embrace."He loves someone else, Kim."She caressed my back sadly. "Tell me the truth, you were just pretending to argue with Kier in the kitchen, am I right?"I nodded. "From our marriage, and our divorce plan, it's all just a pretense. Our marriage is fake.""What?" With wide eyes, Kim covered her mouth. "You mean–""Our marriage is not legal. We are not a real couple," I added to what she would have said. "Kier paid the lawyer who blessed our marriage.""Oh, God! Why did you agree?""Because I love him. Even though I know it's all just a pretense. I thought he loved me too.""Many people die because of delusions. Has anything happened to both of you? I mean, have you given him your virginity yet?""No!" I answered quickly. "We kissed.""When your father learns the truth about your marriage, he will definitely be angry.""I know. Before we decided to get married, we had already planned our divorce
