2024-10-29 19:42:56~Roman~
Before I summoned the courage to knock on her door, a war occurred inside my head. Zia returned twice to her room, handing her a bottle of aspirin first, and then they talked inside for the second time. That was how long I’d been hiding in this dark corner. Eyeing her door—a target I’ve been surveying, like a hawk in pursuit of its prey.
All I could see from my hiding spot was the hallway, and I had to see her face to make sure she was alright. She used to get headaches because of the weather change in Spain, and I suppose some things never change.
The moment she opened the door, I instantly regretted coming to check up on her. Now I’m the one with a huge problem. Seeing her in nothing but a skimpy white towel is a sight I never expected to see. Her auburn hair was a disarrayed crown;

A Game With No Rules 86|Silent Plea
~Roman~Saturday morning, seated inside the pickup truck Lu loaned me, I waited for the clock to hit six am.Viviana sent me her address and told me to be there by six or even a little later if I had other things to do. It’s more like she’s simply telling me not to bother to help her out, but I did want to help her and spend the day with her, as friends, of course.It felt like a lifetime had gone by since yesterday’s breakfast, and I crave her presence like a druggie needing a fix.The house I’m looking at was her home for the last three years. It doesn’t have the white picket fence, but it’s definitely a place where you’d want your children to live. Xavier owned this parcel of land, a gift he gave her in memory of her father. S
A Game With No Rules 87|Stay
~Viviana~For a moment, I saw the vision of our past, only it was him who was leaving me. I felt it on Thursday night, the pain of being left behind. I’m not sure if he wanted me to feel what he felt that night, but knowing Roman, he probably didn’t know how this affected me. He would never hurt me, at least not deliberately, and from the way his shoulder fell as he pivoted to leave, my heart took control of my mind.I reached for his hand before he could descend the stairs.We were frozen at the moment. His broad shoulder stiffened, holding his breath while I forced my brain for the right words to say.I’m not sure what I would get out of this gesture. Our future is still bleak, but my hold on his hand was enough to let him know what I wanted. And that
A Game With No Rules 88|Definitely Not Tomorrow
~Viviana~ In sheer darkness, the sliver of moonlight that passed through the balcony’s glass door was our only light. Dressed in our birthday suit, Roman still had me on his lap as he kissed me like it’d be the last kiss he’ll ever have. Eventually, we had to come up for air, soaking in ecstasy. He cupped my face tenderly, thumbs drawing circles on my cheeks, our foreheads pressed together. “Are you sure about this?” Questioned Roman. Between the two of us, it was he who always did the right thing. I tried my best to do the same, but will it kill us if we let go for one night? “Very.” I cling onto him, gripping his shoulder, grounding my hips back and forth on his ramrod erection.
A Game With No Rules 89|Scars
~Viviana~A silence so thick poised between Roman and me weighed down on our heaving chest.Like I remember it, sex with him was still out of this world; ‘amazing’ doesn’t even cover it. It was the most wonderful orgasm I have ever had in years. None of my boyfriends ever made me come thrice in a row. Only Roman had the power to command my body that way.Laying side by side, hidden in the dark, the after-effect of what we just did terrified the shit out of me.It’s like I’m about to tread in murky water. I had no way of knowing what he was thinking, and I didn’t know where we were going from here. If he’d ask me what I want, I have no answer for him because this is not something I ever thought possible.
A Game With No Rules 90|That Guileful Man
~Roman~Deep in her slumber, Viviana snuggled in my arms. Being this close to her felt right to the bones. I felt recharged, contended. Tomorrow, there will be another bloody battle because I must leave her, but I’m a tad stronger; at least, I’d like to believe I have the strength to do what I must.I told her everything she wanted to know. Will it change what we have? I’m one hundred percent sure it won’t. Will it give her the closure she needs? I hope it does. She has to move on. Find a man who would give her the life she deserves. Someone that could live with her here in her dream home. A family, children that would take their mother’s beauty, wits, and kindness. I’ll make sure he treats her well. I’ll make sure she finds her happy ending.A moan of protest sounded from V
A Game With No Rules 91|Future Ones
~Roman~ Like breadcrumbs of evidence, there was a trail of clothes towards the living room from the kitchen. Viviana’s legs fenced my hips on the couch, my hands redrew the map of her body I had imprinted in my head, creating a new memento that I will carry with me once I step out through that door again. I took my time kissing her, teasing her. Our lips were in no hurry, unlike last night. It’s like we both wanted to savor this moment. By the way she gripped my hair, grind her bare wet pussy back and forth over my ramrod cock, I can tell she liked my long hair. It reached past my shoulder, and she kept tugging it backward, running her lips down my throat. I enjoy it, love it even. She had always been enthusiastic in bed. It’s undoubtedly one of the things that never changed.
A Game With No Rules 92|Are You Tired?
~Roman~We finally ate a proper breakfast after taking a shower together. We spent the entire morning treading over safe topics. Made out, cooked lunch together, and made out some more.“I like your hair,” said Viviana. We were on the patio on the back lawn of her home. The summer heat was nothing new to me, but the warmth inside my chest gave me chills that this was too good to be true.“Figured,” I chuckled, circling my thumb on the sole of her foot. She had her back against the other end of the outdoor rattan chair while I was on the other end. We were both indecently dressed. Me, with nothing apart from my boxer shorts, while Viviana had nothing on apart from a fitted white tank top - which was utterly distracting since her nipples were straining through the cotton material - and boy shor
A Game With No Rules 93|My Reason
~Viviana~After seeing his scars last night, I thought of what I must do. It was his battle scars for a war he fought all alone.Just the thought of him fighting all by himself all those years to keep me safe breaks my heart.I resented his choice. I resented that he didn’t want to run away with me even if I offered to coexist in this world with Rio.I lived my life, went to college, had boyfriends, partied while he, on the other hand, was beaten and tortured. Hell, he said it himself. He had to play the dangerous game they played. Those scars will be permanently engraved on his skin, a warranty of how selfless he was.I told myself that I would make the most out of this day. Cook a meal for him, pleasure him, give him

A Game With No Rules It’s Not Every Day
~Viviana~ Our wedding passed by like bliss. I hardly paid attention to everything that we rehearsed, the vow I’ve written, the food we’ve taken time to choose, and the toast by Nico and Tina for Roman and me. Everything was perfect, I’m sure, because now I’m wearing my wedding ring and have Roman’s name. All I wanted to do was get Roman alone. If it was up to me, I would invite him to miss out on our own reception and act as though we’re eloping teenagers, get away with him. But I can’t do that. Nana Teresa was here, and she’d kill us if we did - literally. My mom, who walked me down the aisle and handed my hand to Roman with teary eyes, might understand our eagerness to be alone, but that won’t stop her from chastising us. We cannot just abandon our friends who witn
A Game With No Rules I Couldn't Ask For More
~Roman~ It’s funny how time flies by when it felt like yesterday; I was naked, kneeling down on one knee, pleading for Viviana to accept me and be my wife. Three months have gone by since then. In our villa’s guest room in Las Mencía, I studied the reflection of the man staring back at me in the full-body mirror. A perfectly pressed Prussian-blue suit clung to his body with crisp white dress shirt underneath and a tie with light blue and silver patterns clinging to the collar. A boutonniere of white orchids and lavenders attached to his lapel, a miniature version of his wife’s bridal bouquet. What he wore looks expensive, a magazine-worthy attire, but that isn’t what he wanted to freeze at this moment. It’s the happiness
A Game With No Rules 102|Please Accept Me
~Viviana~ It was no surprise that everyone was already out of the villa when Roman and I stepped out of our room. No wonder they put me far from everyone’s room. I don’t know if I should be thankful to my friends for torturing me. They knew how much I missed Roman and still kept this a secret from me. Anyway, what matters is Roman is here. I won’t feel rueful to have fun while he’s still working. “You should’ve told me.” I nudged his shoulder as we walked down the stone path leading to the beach. We were both sporting casual beachwear. Topping our swimwear with white tanks, khaki shorts, and flip-flops. Sunglasses protect our eyes, but our smiles mirror one another. Roman had his hair tied in a low ponytail while mine was in a high ponytail.
A Game With No Rules 101|Man in the Balcony
~Viviana~Saturday morning, Penny practically knocked down my door and strutted into my room. I lay on my front, covering my head with a pillow, when she tried to wake me up. When I kept on refusing to get out of bed, Penny dropped her voluptuous blond ass on my back.“Get off!” I groaned, wiggling from under her, but she shifted and draped her entire frame over me like there was no human being under her.“It smells like shit in here,” she murmured, lying eagle spread above me, her front pressed on my back. “No wonder Roman isn’t eager to go home to you.”“Shut up,” I groaned, voice muffled by the mattress as Penny made herself comfortable.It has been six agonizing days s
A Game With No Rules 100|Fading Light
~Roman~Three days. That’s how long I’ve been away from Viviana, and I was already losing my cool. Turns out, Rio didn’t only make a mess at the Phantom’s pub, but he also messed up a business deal Red was trying to close that night.No wonder Red was damned pissed he didn’t even want to answer my calls. I had to get to the bottom of the situation before seeing him personally. We might be friends, but just like me, he also answers to the people he’s working with.“What do you want?” Was Red’s warm welcome to me, a scowl etched on his face.He kept the door of his Malibu mansion wide open. I took it as an offer to come in. If this was any other guy, I wouldn’t walk through the angry lion’s den. But Red and
A Game With No Rules 99|Tired of Knowing
~Viviana~Sometimes, knowing the truth doesn’t truly set us free. Sometimes, knowing pulls us back into a limbo of twisted emotions from which we are trying to run away.Mathew told me another piece of the past dad hadn’t written in his journal.Did dad know I would cross paths with Rio? Did he anticipate I would try to kill him? Maybe he expected me to seek justice for his death and find Rio, kill him. Did he purposely withhold the truth to save me from the pain brought by the knowing?Rio didn’t choose his mother over my father. He tried to save them both, but dad knew Summit would find a way for Rio to suffer. He knew his end was about to come in the hands of his student, no less.Did he also tell Rio not
A Game With No Rules 98|Call Me Heartless
~Viviana~One could hardly tell Rio and Roman’s relationship based on their looks. Roman had electric blue eyes while Rio had smoke-gray hues. Roman had sharp jaws, high cheekbones, while Rio had soft-edged jaws and delicate-looking cheeks.Last I saw him, his figure was lean, not too muscular but taut enough that you’ll know he’s taking good care of his body. Now, he’s almost flesh and bones. His hollow cheeks forced his cheekbones to look edgy, the kind that tells a story on its own. He’s deprived of nutrients - by choice or not, I couldn’t tell. His skin was dry as if one scratch and he’ll bleed. The white shirt he had on and jeans were hanging loose on his body as if they were two sizes too big on him.Even in this state, my heart is void of sympathy for him. All I have
A Game With No Rules 97|To Move Forward
~Viviana~After making sure that Roman had already boarded his flight to California, I also boarded my flight to Colorado.I never thought I would exploit having Zia as a friend, but she and Xavier were more than happy to help me, tossing in Bo as my company. As the miles between me and my hometown grew thinner, my heart kept pulsing against my temple, turning my vision hazy and the knots in my stomach twisted painfully.It had been seven years since the last time I set foot in the states. Even when Lu told me it was already safe for me to go back, I refused to do so. His warning to stay away from US grounds gave me a reason not to visit the painful memory this place had given me, and I kept holding onto it up to this day.Tot steps, I told myself. I have to face my fear
A Game With No Rules 96|Just You
~Viviana~ After giving me a chance to catch my breath, Roman slipped out of bed and headed to the ensuite just in time for the dawn to break. The explosion of orange, yellow, and delicate pink slivers passing through the ajar balcony door bounced on my face, making my eyes squint. Groaning, I groped for a pillow and shielded my face from the soft morning light. The soft tap of Roman’s feet on the carpet mingled with his hearty chuckle. “Come on now,” he scooped my tender frame in his arms, taking me into the bathroom. I sighed as soon as my body submerged into the warm water he filled the tub with. He set me in the middle, sliding in behind me, his masculine scent mixed with the evidence of our coupling, and violet mist demanded me to keep my eyes closed.
