9 Muses Series #1: Anchored Hearts 21 - Officially Yours
Habang titig na titig ako sa picture ay bigla akong ginulat ni Thaddeus dahilan para mabitawan ko ang picture frame pero kaagad niyang nasalo iyon."Thadeo!" Singhal ko sa kanya. Tawang-tawa naman siya kaya sinamaan ko siya ng tingin."Good morning, baby." Bati niya pero sinamaan ko lang siya ng tingin."Wala ng good sa morning ko!" Singhal ko ulit sa kanya. He pursed his lips in amusement that made me roll my eyes again.Bakit ba masyado siyang palaasar?"I prepared breakfast for you, kain na tayo." Aya niya. Tumango naman ako at naglakad na palabas sana ng kwarto nang bigla akong buhatin ni Thaddeus."Thadeo!" Gulat kong sigaw sa kanya. "What? I want to carry you to downstairs, mahal." Pinaningkitan ko siya ng mga mata."I can walk, Thaddeus!" Inis kong sabi sa kanya. Umiling naman siya."Well, not now." Sabi niya sabay ngumiti ng pilyo saakin at inilapag ako sa kama."Isa, Thaddeus!" Asar kong sabi sa kanya. Natawa naman siya at kinurot ang pisngi ko."Ang cute mo talagang asarin,

Warning: This chapter includes explicit sexual content and discussions of intimacy between characters. Reader discretion is advised.“I’m officially yours, Thaddeus Dela Vera.”Nang sagutin ko ang tanong ni Thaddeus ay kaagad niya akong niyakap, binuhat at masaya pa akong inikot sa ere. Nang inilapag niya ako, ay hinalikan niya rin ako. Ilang segundo din nang mapahiwalay sa isa’t isa ay kaagad niya ring sinuot ang singsing sa daliri ko at nang tignan ko iyon ay halos mapanganga ako dahil totoong diamonds ang nasa singsing.“See? May mararating din ang pagiging makulit ko,” he said with a smile that radiated pride and satisfaction, as if he had accomplished something extraordinary.I couldn’t resist teasing him. “Dinaan mo lang ako sa sex,” I joked. Bigla naman siyang napanguso, kaya nilapitan ko ang mukha niya at hinalikan ko siya, pero nakanguso parin siya, kaya natawa ako ng mahina.“Oh see, ang hilig mong mangasar saakin, pero kung ikaw na inaasar, asar talo ka rin naman.” Sabi ko

Thad and I spent the night on the yacht engulfed in passion, exploring each other in every possible position and space. The yacht became our private haven, with every corner bearing witness to our intimate connection.As the night wore on, we finally collapsed onto the bed, both exhausted and sated. The physical exertion left us drained, but deeply fulfilled. I nestled against him, my body feeling a pleasant heaviness from the intensity of our time together.As I began to drift into sleep, feeling the heavy weight of fatigue pulling me under, I felt Thad’s gentle touch. He carefully cleaned me up, his movements tender and attentive. His soothing presence was a comforting balm after our fervent night.“Good night, Cali,” he whispered softly, his voice warm and filled with affection. I managed a sleepy smile in response before finally surrendering to the embrace of slumber. The last thing I felt was his loving gaze, a perfect end to a night of shared passion and deep connection.Nagisin
9 Muses Series #1: Anchored Hearts 24 - The Wedding
Nagkwentuhan lang kaming dalawa ni Zen, nag-iisip narin sa mga ipapangalan ng anak namin, oo dinamay niya ang akin kahit na hindi pa naman ako sure na buntis nga ako. Tsaka kaninang umaga ko lang na-feel ang ganong sintomas, kaya imposible namang buntis ako—hindi din, ilang beses na bang pinutok ni Thaddeus sayo?"Gaga ka! Sex on the yacht? While Thad steering the wheels?! That sound incredibly hot, Cali! Nainggit ako!" Zen exclaimed, her eyes wide with excitement. She playfully hit my arm, clearly thrilled by the juicy details.I couldn't help but grin, remembering how Thaddeus looked in the cockpit area. "He was mad while I'm teasing him," I said, a mischievous smile playing on my lips. "He looked so intense and focused, but it was also... really hot."Zen shrieked with laughter. "Gaga ka! Hindi daw marupok!" komento niya dahilan para matawa kaming dalawa. "Talandi din ano!" sunod niya pang sabi."Gagi kasi, ang hot niyang tignan, tapos nang-aakit pa mga mata." I admitted, I suddenl

After the reception, the after-party was in full swing. The room buzzed with laughter, music, and lively conversations. Guests were enjoying themselves, dancing and mingling, but I was far from feeling the same excitement. My earlier symptoms had worsened, and I found myself making several trips to the restroom, trying to escape the overpowering smells of the food that made me queasy.Thaddeus, ever-observant, noticed my discomfort. He approached me with a look of concern, his brow furrowed slightly. "Are you sure you’re okay?" he asked, his voice laced with worry."Walang strawberry cake." Mahinang sabi ko sabay nguso. Nagulat naman si Thaddeus, tinignan ako, kaya napatingin din ako sa kanya. Halata ang pagkagulat sa kanyang mukha nang sabihin ko iyon.Then he suddenly smiled and said, "You're craving something? I'll request it from the chef. Do you need anything?"I shook my head, though the mention of the cake made my mouth water. "Just the cake," I said with a soft giggle, my mood

Kinabukasan ay naghanda kami ni Thaddeus sa pagbalik sa Amsterdam, as Urania will set sail in the next two weeks, but I need to prepare everything. But before we went to Amsterdam, I needed to go back to Miami first to check everything.Tinanong ko si Thad kung anong barko namin ang una niyang dinala, dahil hindi ko pa naitatanong sa kanya iyon."My baby," he replied, which made me stop putting my MacBook in my luggage.I looked at him, a bit confused. "Calliope," he clarified, still smiling. "She was my first baby as a captain." He patted the bed next to him, inviting me to sit down.As I moved to sit beside him, he gently pulled me onto his lap. I instinctively wrapped my arms around his neck and gave him a quick, affectionate kiss. His smile widened, but he didn't let up; instead, he leaned in and kissed my neck, sending a delightful shiver down my spine. I tightened my grip around his neck, savoring the warmth and closeness of our embrace."I requested it, though." he said softly,

"What was that, Cali?" he demanded, his voice laced with anger.I frowned, not understanding why he was upset. "I don't like her. And you're asking me, what was that?" I shot back, my grip tightening on the glass in my hand. "What do you want me to do? Be friendly with her?"He took a deep breath, trying to control his frustration. "She's just a friend—the one who helped me during college, Cali," he said, his voice strained. "I owe her a lot. Can we please not fight over this?""Ow, malaki pala utang mo sa kanya.” I snapped, my irritation boiling over. “Edi sana sumama ka nalang sa kanya.” Iritable kong sagot tsaka ko kinuha ang bag at naglakad palabas ng resto kahit na hindi pa dumadating ang order namin."Cali!" Thaddeus called after me, his voice tinged with desperation. But I didn't stop. My heart was pounding, and every step I took felt like a release of the fury and hurt that had been building inside me. How dare he invalidate my feelings? How dare he dismiss my discomfort like

Plano namin sana sabay kaming pupunta ng Amsterdam, pero may mga trabaho pa akong dapat gawin at pupunta nalang ako doon two days before Urania starts to sail.Thaddeus left his penthouse to me. Ayaw ko namang tumira sa malaking lugar ng ako lang mag-isa kaya sa condo ko ako nagi-stay. Baka kasi mamiss ko lang si Thad sa penthouse niya dahil mas marami kaming memories doon kumpara sa condo ko.As I was busy reviewing the proposed budget for the next year, my phone rang. Kaagad kong inabot iyon, expecting it to be Thaddeus. But it was Dylan. Nasa condo na ako ngayon at mag aalas dose na ng gabi, pero heto at trabaho parin ang iniisip ko."Any news?" Bungad ko kaagad nang sagutin ko ang tawag niya.I heard Dylan's heavy sigh before responding, "Cali, I'm sorry to bother you tonight... But
