Chapter 114 - Want it Rough
Last Updated:
2024-05-20 13:00:42He's running his hands down and around my bare thighs up and up again, up past my ribs, around my lower back and down again, just past my hip bone. His fingers hook around the laces of my underwear and I gasp when he finally removes it. I felt a bit embarrassed when I noticed that he paused, so I closed my legs.
"Stop it..." he whispered and suddenly, his lips touched my bare stomach."Arik...please!" I fucking moaned while begging.I couldn't recognize my own voice there. He was teasing me, and I couldn't even reach him to continue. After a while, I felt him move between my legs, so I sat up, but he insisted and parted my legs."A-Arik, wait...what are you-"Before I could even continue my words, I suddenly felt his tongue between my swollen folds, it led to me feeling completely weak.. It's just a whisper of a kiss but something collapses in my skull. It's a feather-light brush of his mouth against my skin in a place I can't qRelated chapters
After This Night Chapter 115 - Wasn't Drowning
It was already noon when I woke up from a deep sleep once again. After Arik told me that, we decided to rest inside the hut. He seemed surprised by my lack of shock, but I assured him that I already knew. Aside from the fact that the disease was progressing swiftly in his brain.What can I do to help him? Lord, tell me, please. Anything. I will do anything to help him.When I looked for Arik around the hut, he wasn't there, so I decided to go downstairs carrying the food he had prepared for me earlier.As I was still on the steps of the hut, I heard a woman's voice from the large cottage in the middle of the area, so I hurried my steps. I even witnessed Rusty quickly exiting the hut intended for him, appearing angry from his expression.Out of curiosity, I rushed straight to the cottage only to find him with her. My anger flared up immediately when I saw her approach Arik, who had his back turned in my direction.I placed the tr

"I don't need your apologies, Arik. Let me be until I understand why you did that to her. I don't want to be unfair to you. I don't want to—""No, please. I'm sorry. I was just startled. It was all my instinct. I know I needed to help her, and I did, without considering your feelings . . . and I'm sorry. I really am. Please . . ." He pleaded with me, quickly taking my hand again.I allowed him to hold my hand tightly. I just looked at him while he did. I looked into his eyes. They were still filled with concern, a concern I didn't see in him when he rescued Tatiana earlier.I knew this was just my jealousy consuming me, which was why I was acting like this. I knew I'd be in the wrong if I let this jealousy consume me entirely. But I couldn't help it! I want to cry! What is happening to me?I was about to speak again when Rusty suddenly arrived, calling for Arik. He briefly glanced at me before excusing himself to approach Rusty. I sa

His gaze focused more on me. It deepened, piercing into my soul. I saw him take a sip of the beer while still keeping his gaze fixed on me. I'm starting to feel uneasy because of the way he's looking at me.He is looking—no, he's staring at me until it reaches my soul. He's staring at me as if he adores me so much. He's staring at me as if I'm the only person he's seeing right now.He is so entrancing. His eyes are so captivating and I can't get enough of it. I absolutely love his brown eyes.He was dreamy. His eyes were dreamy. I was lost in those brown eyes, and I never wanted to be found. I loved the way he looked at me.In a moment, he took another sip of his beer. I thought our staring would end there, but I was mistaken.I felt a rush of excitement when suddenly he stood up and said something to Noah and Rusty before heading towards me, leaving the guitar with Rusty.I immediately averted my gaze as he nea

"I can't confine you to this situation and watch you struggle when I know there might still be a way for you to be free and happy. I'm scared you'll leave me, yes, I am, but I'm even more terrified of seeing you suffer while waiting for my return... for my memories to resurface. I've seen that before."I didn't know how to react. My gaze dropped to my trembling hands on my lap, tears streaming down uncontrollably."C-Celeste…" Arik's broken voice called out to me.I quickly looked at him. My heart sank further as I saw the immense pain and sorrow in his eyes. I felt like the sky and earth had collapsed on me."A-Arik, please… Don't…" I stuttered. My own words choked me.He looked so helpless, and I felt utterly powerless. Especially when he sadly smiled at me."I'm sorry, baby, but please, if I ever forget you... don't wait for me to remember you again. Don't confine yourself and your heart to me.

There are stories of individuals who went missing and were later found lifeless, having met with accidents or worse. What if that happens to him? I can't bear the thought.Quietly, I slipped into Rusty's car while he was making continuous calls to Arik's friends and acquaintances. If Arik had taken his phone when he left, everything would have been so much easier, but he didn't. He left in haste, just wanting to get away from me."Have you spoken with his doctor? Maybe Arik mentioned something to him before you found out everything," Rusty suggested, offering me an idea.I cleared my throat and glanced at Rusty, who was focused on driving."Hi, doc. It's me, Celeste. Arik is missing right now. He suddenly had an episode. He can't remember me," I started.I heard him excuse the nurse before responding. I could sense his worried sigh."I had a feeling this might happen. Did he take his medication last night?"

"Where are you headed?" Oliver asked as I packed the lunchbox and the food I placed inside."Are you taking that to him?" he asked again, which I just ignored. I heard him chuckle, so I gave him a sharp look."You know what? If you have nothing good to say, don't bother talking to me," I retorted. I almost threw the plate at him.He burst into laughter. "What? I'm not saying anything. I was just asking you a question.""You're mocking me. Don't put words in my mouth, Ols. You'll regret teasing me," I warned him.His laughter intensified, leaving me exasperated. After packing the food, I prepared to leave but noticed Oliver's serious expression as he looked at me, sipping water."I know. You don't need to remind me again. Mommy has reminded me numerous times," I said, guessing what he wanted to convey.He shrugged and hugged me. He took the lunchbox and walked out of the mansion with me. I suppose he's also

"Yes. Dad wants to see you, so come. Aunt and uncle from the States are also coming. If you want, bring a date," Rusty said, glancing at me."A date? Fucking corny. Who would I bring? Plus, I thought it was just for dinner?" Arik asked, doing something on his phone."Yeah, it is, but bring someone along anyway. I've got a plus one. You might feel left out without a date.""Fuck you, Serrano! I can pull any woman I want if that's what your cocky attitude implies," Arik retorted. He's right. He's very right because he's still not free from the ghosts of his past relationships. Damn it."Just bring any woman you want, fucker," Rusty said, sitting in front of us.Arik looked up at him."Hmm. Can I bring Celeste instead? Since you said you've got someone. Won't you be jealous? She said she's not taken yet."My jaw dropped because of that. I saw Rusty's broad grin as he looked at me. When I glanced back at Arik, he was looking at me serious

I bowed my head, averting my gaze to my trembling hand."But I want you to know that I'll be fine as long as you're happy with him. I can't ruin your relationship. Arik is still my best friend, he will always be. But, Celeste..."I immediately lifted my gaze to him when he abruptly took my hand. His bright, slanted eyes revealed a pleading and pained expression. They were filled with agony. He licked his lower lip and clicked his tongue, seemingly restraining himself."If the pain prevails over joy, please allow yourself to be happy. It's okay to take a break. Don't immediately think you're being selfish. We're just human beings after all," he said, gently squeezing my hand. I could feel his excessive care in that gesture.I was about to speak when Arik violently pulled Rusty's hand off me and quickly pulled me up."I told you to fuck off, didn't I? What do you want this time, huh? Are you seeking revenge through Celeste because

After This Night The End
My beloved Celeste Koa,Hi, baby. I know that at this moment, you're crying and hurting deeply. I promised that I wouldn't make you cry anymore, but I repeatedly failed, so please forgive me.Forgive me because I was a coward to face you. Forgive me because, in the end, my courage wasn't enough to fight for you and our child. I didn't know what to do. I didn't know how to tell you that I'm tired.I'm so tired, but I don't want to give up. I don't want to die. I don't want to leave you, but I can't do anything.When they told me that my memories would return soon, that was the sign that I would soon be gone. I wanted to tell you, my love. I wished to tell you because I wanted you to stay by my side until the end, but I felt like I was being too selfish. I couldn't bear to see you hurt and crying anymore.So forgive me if I did everything to make you hate me. I did everything to make it easier for you to accept that I'm no longer here. So that you wouldn't be hurt too much.But I was wr

And what does he call what I'm feeling now? Easy? Is this easier for him? He died without me by his side. He died without me knowing his final wishes. He died without me knowing his last words.He died without us, without his daughter by his side.How do I tell this to Ariah? How do I explain everything to her? Why did he have to do this? I can't understand.I caught my breath as I tried to pull myself back from the darkness. In the midst of my sobbing and wailing, Rusty came to pick me up and hug me. When I looked at him, he was also crying. A sign that he knew nothing about what happened."Celeste, I'm so sorry. Please forgive us..." Tito Isaiah muttered. "My son... It was his wish not to let you know everything. If it were up to me, I would have told you about his last day, but he didn't want that, and I couldn't do anything."My hands trembled. I sobbed again. I covered my mouth and screamed in anguish. Rusty held me tightly to prevent me from collapsing."If only I could have tol

He had a serious expression as he stood up and approached me. He helped me put on my necklace."I'm with her, Au. If you want, you can come too. Once she's satisfied enough, then we'll bring her home immediately," Rusty convinced her.Aurora just rolled her eyes, almost losing the color in them."You're spoiling her too much, Rusty. I don't know about you two," she said, grabbing her bag. "But I'm coming along, even if you don't say so."After that, Aurora stormed out. I could feel her anger, and I understood it because she just wanted to protect me. I was also frustrated with myself for not being able to give in to the people around me.It's just that I feel like I need this. I need to witness firsthand that there's really no hope left for us to reconcile. I need to see that so I have nothing left to hold on to."Hey..." Rusty called me.He turned from behind me and faced me. His eyes showed deep concern as they glistened."Are you sure you want to do this?" he asked carefully.I bit

When I exited, I used the service elevator as Paula said he was waiting in the parking lot. As I arrived, I immediately spotted him. He was standing, facing his car, talking on his phone. I could hear his voice clearly."I don't want to force her. I'm not expecting anything, but if she agrees to this, then okay. I'll be happy. It's for her too," he said to the person on the other end.Who was he talking to, and what were they discussing?I remained standing behind him. He was too focused on his conversation, probably not sensing my presence."I hope she agrees. I've been wanting to ask her about this since last week. I'm just looking for the right time—idiot, Ru! Fool! That's why you still don't have a girlfriend because you're a shy son of a bitch!" he exclaimed to his friend, Ruru.I couldn't help but burst into laughter at that. After a while, he ended the call and slowly turned to face me. I could clearly see how his soul briefly left him in shock when he saw me."Celeste! You sta

I hugged Ariah, and I almost teared up. "Very good, baby! I'm so proud of you. Whatever the result of your exam, mommy will always be proud of you, always remember that, okay?""I love you, mommy. I'm happy that you're back," she whispered to me, causing me to pause."Because of that, we're going to have a little outing! Right, mommy?" Rusty cheered again, so I looked at him."Am I already your child, and is that how you address me?" I teased him.He just smirked and approached Ariah. "Don't mind your grumpy mommy. Where do you want to go?"I returned to my desk to organize my things while still hearing their conversation."Alright. Mall it is. What my little unicorn wants, my little unicorn gets," Rusty said playfully to my daughter, and I glanced at him.He stood up from kneeling and looked at me. I smiled at him and mouthed thank you. He just approached me and hugged me tightly, including Ariah."I love you both. A lot," he whispered.It was already late when we arrived at the mall

When he finished, he headed straight to me and sat down beside me."Your voice is amazing! You could be a dancer now!" Kim shouted at him, and everyone cheered.I just stared at him, amused by his participation in the banter."That's my hidden talent," he said."I wish you had hidden it instead," Oliver joked, and they all laughed again.When their banter subsided, he finally turned his gaze to me. I gave him a restrained smile, unable to explain my emotions.All I knew was, he is too good for me, and I am too bad for him."You were amazing," I whispered in a low voice, taking a sip of the beer in my hand before grabbing another. "I need to go to the bathroom," I excused myself when I felt a wave of nausea due to excessive nervousness.I heard Rusty calling out to me, but I ignored him. I went straight to the bathroom and threw up repeatedly, followed by another round of silent sobbing.I didn't know the reason. I didn't know why. I just wanted to cry because it felt like my heart was

I couldn't control my emotions when I briefly saw her behind the large doors of the church. I gasped as I witnessed how beautiful she looked in her wedding gown. Happiness radiated from her eyes as she slowly marched towards the front. Toward Noah."Gods. It makes me want to get married too," I heard Aurora whisper, so I nudged her."Then accept Oliver's proposal already," I said, redirecting my attention to Kim."Okay, later," she replied, and we both laughed.When Kim reached our seats, she began to cry, and we couldn't help but cry along with her. She couldn't even continue walking, so Noah quickly came to escort her down the aisle, and everyone applauded.Throughout the ceremony, I just gazed at Him. I couldn't help but silently pray. I hoped that everything would be okay after this. That I could fully accept what happened between Arik and me.It was so hard. Starting over was so difficult, but every time I remembered how Ariah begged me while crying, my heart shattered. I always

"Are you okay, Celeste?" he asked me gently, about to approach me, so I spoke up immediately."Don't you dare," I sternly replied, looking him in the eyes.Pain flashed in his eyes, intensifying my emotions. Is this real? Is he playing with me?"I just want to check on you...""Leave."My anger was barely contained, and I averted my gaze from him."I don't want to see you again. Leave, and don't show yourself to me again."It seemed like my heart wanted to take back those words, so I quickly closed my mouth and glanced at Rusty. He was just looking at me, concern evident in his eyes."Celeste-""What the hell are you doing here, moron?"I swiftly turned at the speaker, and that's when I saw Dad and Mom entering. Benjamin was behind them, marching towards me.I saw Arik glance at Dad. I suddenly felt afraid for him, but I couldn't do anything anymore. Why did he even come?"Mr. Fuentebella, I'm just here to check on Celeste—""And why? Can't you see that she's not okay? And what's next
After This Night Chapter 143 - Her Plea
Life is so mercilessly relentless, and that's what makes grieving hard. The world keeps on spinning, and after every sleepless night, the sun still rises.Even when you want to die, there are people who will persistently try to save you from the death you've long desired.I stared blankly at the ceiling in the room where I found myself, slowly recalling the memories of what I did before losing consciousness. What am I doing here again? Why am I still here?I slowly roamed my eyes throughout the entire room, and there, I saw the bandage wrapped around my pulse. There were traces of blood. What happened?Who fucking saved me?"Celeste..."I turned slowly to the one calling my name, and Aurora quickly appeared before me. I suddenly remembered that she was the last person I saw, and her loud scream was the last thing I heard.She saved me. She wanted me to live, so she rescued me. Why?"How are you? Is there still pain?" She asked me, trying to calm herself, but I could clearly see the th
