Chapter: Chapter SixThe woods stretched ahead, a labyrinth of towering trees and dappled sunlight. I tread cautiously, my heart pounding with each step. Maximo and Felix's hurried departure fueled my curiosity and worry. Something was amiss, and I couldn't shake the feeling that I needed to find out.Who is the Rivertide Pack? What happened to them? I wanted to know! I could not live like this knowing that I married a next-in-line Alpha and I have no clue about how his world works! I may be a human but I am also a wolf. I still have a place in his world. Despite the tension and crying I had earlier, my curiosity weighs heavy. Since I drove with Maximo back home, my car is left at Heart and Heath's place. I booked an Uber and the driver dropped me off at the edge of the woods, and I pressed on, determination lending strength to my legs. The forest floor was a carpet of fallen leaves, muffling my steps. His car is also outside this forest so I am sure he's just around here. As I ventured deeper, an ee

Chapter: Chapter FiveMaximo's arrival was like a storm ripping through the tranquility of Heart and Heath's place. I don't know how or when it happened, but the calmness of the place was disrupted when he suddenly arrived at the place. The force of his werewolf strength shattered the gate and splintered the wooden door, leaving chaos in his wake.I ran headed to the living room and saw him on the threshold, his eyes blazed with a fierce golden fire, his rage palpable and uncontainable. I felt a chill race down my spine, my heart pounding in a mixture of fear and dread."Maximo!" I called out, looking back at the shred of wood on the ground.I was in the kitchen, talking to Heath but Maximo's sudden entrance froze me in my tracks. My heart clenched as I saw his eyes locked onto mine, his anger a tempest that threatened to consume everything in its path.Instinctively, I take a few steps, my fingers trembling, desperate to intervene before Maximo's fury escalated. But on my third step, Heath moved faster,

Chapter: Chapter FourMy heart raced as Maximo's voice from the other line seem to echo through the living room. Despite my trembling hands, I remain my composure to answer while my voice quivered as I called his name. His words were sharp, his tone colder than ever. It was clear he was angry, but I couldn't bring myself to care anymore. I had endured enough pain from the previous night, not to mention the indifference he have shown towards me earlier. I cooked for my husband and his mistress! Any person who is in the right mind would not do such a thing. How could they? "I said, where are you?" his question is demanding, his voice cutting through the silence between the lines. My eyes look around unable to answer him. I hesitated, unsure of how to respond. My mind raced, a million thoughts colliding, but I found myself unable to form a coherent sentence. If I tell him where I am, he will go ballistic, I am certain. He could not know that I am inside Heart's place. He may cause huge trouble and I c

Chapter: Chapter ThreeThe knock on my door jolted me awake from my restless slumber. Groggily, I stumbled towards the door, my mind still fuzzy from the few hours of sleep I had managed to get. I slept almost four in the morning, sulking and crying and whoever the person behind the door was, I would surely break the leg.I am sure as hell that this could not be Maximo. That man hasn't been in my place.I am yawning while opening the door and met with the sight of Maximo standing there, dressed impeccably in his white suit, ready to face the day.My still sleepy and obviously puffy eyes grew big because of his sudden presence outside my room.And at this early hour?!Why are you excited, Cza Georgianne? A voice inside my head intervened which lead me back to my senses."Can you prepare breakfast?" That was a cold one, phew, but I am giving it to him.It's new! He doesn't ask me to cook for him. Why the sudden change of mood? Did he realize that he went overboard last night?Although his words were curt and

Chapter: Chapter TwoAs the car pulled into the driveway, a heavy silence filled the air between Maximo and me. The ride back home had given me time to gather my thoughts and summon the courage to confront Maximo about this fucked up and strained relationship. I heavily sigh while looking in front of our dark porch and closed door. It's now or suffers forever, Cza. I face my husband but before I could even utter a word, he swiftly exited the car, slamming the door shut—leaving me speechless with my jaw dropped to the ground. What the hell?!He has the audacity to be the one to be angry? For what reason? I was the one being belittled by him, rejected and neglected, and now he's acting I have done something worst!I hurriedly get out of the car and called after him, but he paid me no heed, striding towards the house with determined steps."Maximo, let's talk!" I exclaimed, following closely behind, while my heart is pounding in my chest, unsure of how this conversation would unfold. Maximo never lay a

Chapter: Chapter OneThe pulsating music and flashing lights engulfed me as I danced with Heart inside the vibrant bar. Yet, beneath the façade of revelry, my heart remained heavy with the burden of an arranged marriage I never wanted. Maximo's rejection of our bond and his constant anger whenever I was near had left me disappointed and drained. I tried to please him, but it seemed like an insurmountable task."Cza, can you believe this night? It's like the universe conspired to give us the best party ever!"I suddenly giggled at what my best friend have told me while we are in the middle of the crowd. I brush my hand through my hair. "I know, right? What about we do this more often?" I kidded when I know to myself that the idea seem impossible. Tonight is just my impulsive escape from the new world I am currently in. Tomorrow, I will wake up with a heavy heart again, having no choice but to go home where my husband is. To where Maximo is. What could he be doing tonight? Probably he's home again, but cu

Chapter: FinaleMaybe they are right when it rains on your parade, rainbow will soon to occur after a long journey of heavy rains. I have been wishing for a Prince Charming on a right time with a Cinderella-like love story to pacify my standards. But never thought that I would be no like Cinderella because I was born to create my own story and find my Prince Charming on my own silly way.“Gosh, I don’t feel my make-up today.” I mumbled while watching myself in front of the mirror.Leigh, who is also fixing herself, growled. “Shut up, preggy, you look good already.”I immediately cup my belly after Leigh said that. My baby is six months now, three way to go before we’ll finally see him. And yes, it’s a boy. Damian was so happy after we had our gender reveal celebration last month. I could not help but to chuckle on what my love story looks like. Did not know that being in a total heartbreak can lead a person to another roller-coaster love story that I thought, will fail as well like the usual. Who wou

Chapter: Chapter One-hundred Fifty SixDid not know why I am back on my hometown alone after spending a day with my friends. Earlier, I was laughing with them to cast all my worries away not until I am finally left alone inside that house. I have never been so empty my life, maybe I was devastated after Elric broke up with me but what Damian did is more painful. I was not expecting a Prince Charmng anymore, contented on how he is to me, but guess I am failed by my own thoughts again. I spent weeks on hiding my pain but this time, I could not take it anymore. Never thought that after hours of good times and laughter, will lead me to this kind of misery. I guess we really should not be too happy or else we’ll be sad longer.I am currently in the same place I was before but this time, I am here because not because I fought with someone but because I failed to love one more time.Earlier, after my friends left, I notice that Damian weren’t at home—even his car. I guess he is out again to wherever he is going. I bent my knees f

Chapter: Chapter One-hundred Fifty FiveDays and weeks passed by so fast. Damian and I maintained the distance, we did not talk like the usual. We just talk about the improvements of the baby, nothing more personal. I have been hiding crying under the sheets for weeks now as well but I woke up feeling a lot better than the previous day. I kept reminding myself to be strong for this little me inside me and that I should continue this damn of a hell-hole.Today, it’s Friday. Leigh and Alaric would be coming here after class so I prepared and ordered foods for us. Damian already said himself that I can definitely treat this house as my own, so inviting my friends would not be a big deal. In fact, he even went to pay Aubrey a visit on their rented unit last day so I think we are both fair towards each other. I cup my belly when my stomach growl. I check for the time and sees it’s almost twelve in the afternoon already so I grab some few slices from the steak I ordered from Denvi’s place. I go on my monthly check up as well and

Chapter: Chapter One-hundred Fifty-fourLike what we really want to do, Alaric and I are now looking at the sandbar from a far. People there are enjoying their little vacation, perhaps some of these are students who just finished their term exam. We are both leaning on his car while we are on the side way. Silence envelopes us for long minutes now, no one is talking. We just enjoyed our company without necessary words to speak. I know that there are lots of question running through his head, even I.Questions like, why? Where did we go wrong? Did I trust him too much? Was I that gullible? And lastly, why is he treating Aubrey unlikely? But the latter seems cool seeing us yesterday—like the first day I saw her. I do not know if was I too stupid not to notice or there is really something going on between Damian and I.A loud sigh escape from my lips before tilting my head. “Aren’t you hungry?” I asked to break the silence, remembering that we never had our lunch still. Well, I was about to. But never thought I would be seeing

Chapter: Chapter One-hundred Fifty-threeIt’s already eight in the evening when Alaric sent me home after hours of riding the car near the sea side. After Damian left earlier, Alaric invited me for a drive for me to ease the burden feeling I was dealing with earlier. Unlike what Damian said, I did not wait for him back there. And now, as I head inside the n=entrance of the house, the lights from the living room are already off except upstairs. I took a heavy breath while going towards the kitchen and drink a glass of water. I lean for a few seconds on the counter before removing my blazer as I walk upstairs, burnt out and with a heavy heart.I check the balcony of Damian is there but he wasn’t so I am sure he is inside his room. I turn the knob right and sees him reading a book on his table. He look up at me and sigh before going back to the book he is reading.That’s it. I don’t want bullsh8ts while we share the same sheets.I walk straight towards him and put the test result I had few days ago. I saw him looking at the two

Chapter: Chapter One-hundred Fifty-twoI have been sitting on top of the toilet inside our room for long minutes now. The kit is still inside the box after I tested myself right away I arrived home and now, I am afraid and confuse at the same time on how I am going to react by the result. I take a deep a slow deep breath before closing my eyes as I move the kit out from the box.“Oh my god.” I whispered as I decided to open my eyes.My lips parted at the sight of two red lines being shown and my hands immediately shaken, mind starting to process in haywire.“Fck.” I cussed out of deep breath. I then remain my posture to calm my nerves down before I went out from the comfort room just to sat back down on top of the bed. “Oh my god, it did not change.” I even mumbled, sounding so stupid on how I reacted.“Mommy…” I mumbled once again before tearing up. I then realize why I am crying so I immediately fan my face using my hands. “Heck.” I sniff before looking around.Should I tell Damian immediately? Everleigh? The rest of my

Mistakenly Vowed To Be His Wife
"Ang mahalin ka ay isang pagkakamaling 'di ko na dapat isinugal pa, Flint. I swear, walking on that aisle is the worst thing I did my whole life. Ang unfair mo naman, Flint! Hulog na hulog ako, oh!"
***
After Thalea's nerve-wracking hangover from a party the previous night, she was taken by her best friend to a church for her to marry the man that her best friend was supposed to share a vow with.
Bossy, rude and kinda playboy. Irish Flint will surely never be good to Thalea. He is sweet and soft, next minute he became obsessive and rude. Living with Flint is maybe a misfortune for Thalea and the betrayal her best friend did to her is also painful; but one thing is for sure... she fell in love with the man she mistakenly shared a vow with, despite knowing the fact that Flint was not really meant to be for her in the first place — but to her best friend.
"That was a beautiful pain though. Salamat sa pansamantalang pagpapasilong mo sa'kin." She murmured before slowly walking away from the person she once called home.

Chapter: Chapter Three: Shirt“Kailangan ka pa naging tanga, Velayo?” another man came and judged the one who spilled some coffee on me.Hindi ko mapigilan na mapahiya na lamang kahit na ‘di naman ako ang may kasalanan but standing in front of these tall men while my clothes are wet and stained is hilarious. I wanted to call Lorraine but I am having a hard time looking for her dahil sa sobrang taas ng mga lalaking ito.I saw how that man who accidentally spilled me a coffee grab his wallet from behind before taking out paper bills. He handed it to me kaya lumaki ang mga mata ko nang makitang puro iyon one-thousand paper bills. The thought and sight of the money made me want to accept it dahil wala na rin kaming pera for the next few days but I chose not to.I look up and shake my head. “No, Sir. I am fin—““Having your clothes stained is not fine, Miss. Take his money, don’t worry he knows how to earn.” The other man stated but I s

Chapter: Chapter Two: Iced Coffee“What if bili tayo yumburger sa Jollibee bago bumili ng Frappe and Milktea?”Napalingon si Lorraine sa akin dahil sa sinabi ko kaya napataas naman ng kaunti ‘yung kilay ko. She look at me hilariously as if there is something wrong with what I said so I pout my lips a little while looking around with my opened palm.“Sandali nga, liliparin sa hangin ‘yang pera!” Lorraine exclaimed so I look at her.My palm is opened flatly kasi and our paper bills is on top of it dahil pinatong ito ni Lorraine kanina sa mga kamay ko while budgeting our few paper bills left for this month. It is still 23rd day of the month pero parang hindi na aabuting ng last day sa buwang ito yung pera namin. Every end of the month kasi pinapadala ang allowance naming and kung minsan nga ay kulang din ang ipinapadala dahil sa mahina ang income doon sa Mindanao and medyo roll out ang ibang mga tanggapan sa pagpapasweldo.To support our unlimit

Chapter: Chapter One: Kasal?Waking up with an aching head, I slowly open my eyes while trying to converse with my memories I had last night. The loud metallic sound, neon lights and humping bodies are the ones that goes inside my mind this time—none those ones after dancing with few acquaintance and Lorraine. Wait, Lorraine…Upon my sudden realization, I opened my eyes wide to check if where I am despite the fact that my head is still throbbing from the hangover. I kind of panic nang makitang nag-iisa lamang ako sa kwartong ito but the interior of the place looks manly and halatang may kaya sa buhay ang may-ari. That thought made me groan when I realize as well na I never been inside this kind of lounge dahil kahit ang mga kaibigan ko ay walang kwartong katulad nito. Tinapik-tapik ko ang aking mga pisngi nang sa ganoon ay mahimas-himasmasan naman ako kahit konti and para makapag-isip na rin.“Lorraine…” Bulong ko at dali-daling hinahanap kung nasaan ang mga gamit
