Masyadong nasanay na ang mga mata ni Erika na makita ang lalaking nasa harapan niya ngayon na n*******d, kaya naman ito ang unang beses na nakita niya itong nakasuot ng pormal na suit and tie. Ibang-iba sa itsura nito noong iligtas siya nito nang gabing siya ay malunod.
Logan was wearing a black vest, military pants, and Martin boots that day when he rescued her from the water. The originally close-fitting vest was soaked in water and clung to his body, outlining his smooth muscles. Hanggang ngayon ay nararamdaman pa rin niya ang mahigpit na hawak nito sa kanyang baywang, ang nagngangalit na mga ugat nito sa kanyang braso patungo sa kamay, maging ang malaking umbok na iyon sa gitna ng hita ng lalaki kahit pa ilang linggo na ang lumipas.
That first sight of him made Erika this decision. Ang buong akala niya rin ay isa itong army dahil sa get-up na iyon. He was rough and forceful in bed. Everytime, she would be tortured to death, but she couldn't stop herself from wanting him more. Erika wants more of him, especially at this sight of him. Kulang na lang ay lumuhod siya ngayon sa harapan ng lalaki para tuluyan na itong maging Diyos sa paningin niya. This man is breathtakingly hot and handsome.
Logan’s rough fingertips scraped against Erika’s soft palm which made her come back to her senses. Agad niyang kinalma ang sarili at binawi ang kamay mula sa pagkakawak sa kanya ng lalaki.
May hinala na siya noon na maaaring mayaman ang lalaking ito dahil palagi siya nitong dinadala sa five-star hotel. The calluses on his palms made her think that he couldn't be some pampered young master or a prince. Turns out that the man in front of her was the heir to the Vallejo clan who had just returned to the country three months ago.
Hindi naman niya akalain na ito ang mahahanap niya bilang isang fuck buddy—the father of one of her students? Gods.
Pinilit alisin ni Erika ang mga isipin na iyon sa kanyang ulo.
“Mr. Vallejo, I apologize. Unfortunately, there was some physical fight between Zion and his classmate just now. Kasalanan ko. Hindi ko natutukan nang maayos ang anak ninyo…” paliwanag niya kay Logan. Gustong-gusto niya ng mga bata kaya nandito siya sa propesyon na ito. Hindi siya maaaring matanggal.
"Dad, it wasn’t Teacher Larson’s fault, it was Yosef, that freak,” agad na kontra ni Zion sa sinabi ng kanyang teacher.
Logan stared at Erika even more. Pormal na pormal ang itsura nito at kagalang-galang. Her hands were in front of her lower abdomen, standing upright, with a high ponytail, outlining her innocence and beauty. Hindi niya mahanap ang nakakaakit at nakakabaliw na anyo nito sa tuwing yakap niya ito tuwing gabi.
Ramdam na ramdam ni Erika ang nag-aalab na tingin at tensyon na dala nito sa kanyang puso kaya napalunok siya. Pakiramdam niya ay hinuhubaran na siya ng lalaking ito sa kanyang utak.
"Mr. Vallejo, I will take good care of Zion from now on and that’s a promise. Sana ay mapalagpas ninyo ang nangyari ngayong araw…”
“Dad!” Zion tugged at his father’s clothes anxiously, as if he wanted to defend her.
Lalong lumalim ang titig ni Logan kay Erika.
“Son, your Teacher Larson is indeed at fault,” he muttered in his hoarse voice.
Bahagyang umawang ang bibig ni Erika. Yumuko na lamang siyang muli para lang maiwasan ang tensyon ng titig nito sa kanya at para na rin maitago ang kabang nararamdaman niya. Logan’s eyes fell on her exposed snow-white neck, where the dark red mark was clearly visible. That love-mark was from him. Agad na bumalik sa alaala ni Logan ang nangyari sa kanila kagabi kaya hindi na siya nagdalawang-isip pang lapitan ito.
“You should stop interfering in the kids’ fight,” he whispered to her.
Mabilis na nagsitayuan ang mga balahibo ni Erika sa kanyang batok at leeg nang tumama ang mainit na hininga ni Logan sa kanyang balat, tila sinasadya iyon ng lalaki.
Kahit pa abala ang ibang mga teachers sa paligid nila para sa event ngayong araw, nasa school sila ngayon at marami pa ring naglalabas-pasok doon. Ano bang ginagawa ng lalaking ito sa kanya?
Bahagyang umatras si Erika bago pa man siya tuluyang lamunin ng kamunduhan. Pulang-pula ang kanyang tainga at pisngi. She slowly raised her head to look into Logan’s wild eyes. Kitang-kita ng lalaki ang kahihiyan sa kanyang mga mata.
Ngumisi ito at tinapik ang balikat ng kanyang anak. “Next time, daddy will beat him to death.”
Nangunot ang noo ni Erika sa kanyang narinig. Nais man niyang sawayin ang lalaki sa kung paano nito pangaralan ang kanyang anak, ngunit wala siya sa posisyon na iyon. Baka tuluyan pang matanggal siya sa trabaho.
Logan immediately noticed her creased brows, so he smirked even more.
“You don’t have to worry about anything, Teacher Lason. It's normal for children to fight and it has nothing to do with you."
"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Vallejo. I'll take Zion to change clothes, excuse me,” aniya at nagmamadaling kinuha ang bata at umalis na sa lugar na iyon nang walang lingun-lingon.
Matapos niyang palitan ng damit si Zion ay pinakatitigan niya ang bata. Of all, this child is what she liked the most among her young students, and amusingly, she also liked his father as her fuck buddy. Just thinking about the situation gave a shiver to Erika’s spine. It has to end.
Marahas siyang napabuntong-hininga at kinuha ang kanyang cellphone saka nagtipa ng text doon.
We need to stop
Erika put on a dress, with just light makeup, and walked towards the venue. In the auditorium, Logan glanced at the message on his phone. Galing iyon kay Erika at tila ba buo na ang desisyon nito base sa text message.A beam of light suddenly lit up on the stage, hitting Erika, who was wearing a white dress. She was holding a violin in her hand. Nakadagdag ang ilaw na tumapat sa kanyang ganda. Para siyang isang anghel na bumaba sa lupa kahit pa simple lang ang kanyang ayos. She wasn't as seductive as she was in bed, nor was she as pure as she was just now.Hindi na nailayo ni Logan ang tingin niya kay Erika. Tila ba lalo lamang napako ang kanyang mga mata sa babae dahil sa taglay nitong ganda. She was ethereal. Her fox eyes were so captivating along with her smile, but there was still a hint of coldness in her. Napaayos ng upo si Logan nang tuluyang pumikit si Erika. Damn, this woman looks so noble, he thought to himself.She gently leaned on the violin body, raising her hand to pull
Erika's heart pounded loudly when she heard that. Her heart was now in a frenzy. It seemed like this man knew exactly how to completely tame her.In bed, this man always did more than he talked, and the words they exchanged were mostly "softer" and "slower." Tuloy, ang buong akala niya ay mahiyain lang talaga ito at man of few words. Hindi niya akalain na marunong itong mag dirty talk—dahilan para mahirapan na siyang kontrolin ang kanyang sarili. Mariing pumikit si Erika. Malamig naman sa gawing iyon, ngunit pakiramdam niya ay biglaang uminit ang paligid.“Mr. Vallejo, didn’t you read my text message? I told you we need to stop this,” mariin niyang paalala muli kay Logan. Dahan-dahang gumapang ang mainit na kamay ni Logan sa kanyang baywang at marahang hinaplos iyon. Again, he licked Erika’s earlobe and bit it causing her to gasp even more.“Is that what you really want?”Tuluyan nang nangatog ang mga tuhod ni Erika. Batid niyang kapag hindi pa niya tinapos ito ay siya ang matatalo.
For the first time, Erika knew that for such a tough and muscular man, his voice could actually make people weak in their legs, but not her, or not at this point. Mas nangibabaw ang pag aalala niya sa kanyang future at career kaysa sa panandaliang pagbigyan ang pangangailangan ng kanyang katawan.Kaya bago pa man siya tuluyang bumigay sa pang aakit sa kanya ni Logan, tinulak na niya ito at mas pinatigas ang kanyang ekspresyon.“I’m sorry, pero hindi ko pinangarap maging kabit,” diretso niyang sabi sa lalaki na ikinagulat nito.Logan’s jaw clenched and his eyes turned sharp while staring at Erika. “So, do you want me to marry you then?”Nangunot ang noo ni Erika at agad na nakaramdam siya ng iritasyon. “I think you misunderstood our agreement, Mr. Vallejo. I made it clear from the beginning that our relationship is limited to bed. It doesn't matter whether you want to marry me or not. I have never had the idea of marrying you. Hindi ngayon, o kahit na kailan maiisip kong magpakasal s
Erika’s slender, white hands were in sharp contrast to Logan’s bronze arms. Halatang mahina kumpara sa lakas na mayroon ang lalaki, ngunit tila hindi ito nakaramdam ng takot na pigilan ang huli."Get out of the way." Logan’s eyes were too cold, and he was filled with murderous intent, which made Erika feel terrible.Naalala niya ang mga pasa sa katawan ni Zion. Palagi niyang iniisip na dahil iyon sa kalikutan ng bata at posibleng kung saan-saan ito nahuhulog at tumatama. Now she understands the reason. No wonder Zion hit Yosef so hard, leaving the latter unable to fight back."Mr. Vallejo, Zion is only 6 years old, and he is your son. Hindi ba parang sobra itong training na ipinapagawa mo sa kanya para sa edad niya?” muling kontra niya sa lalaki na matigas pa rin ang ekspresyon.Logan’s eyes fell on her clean and fair face, "What position does Teacher Larson have in this house to say that to me, huh?”Ramdam ni Erika ang banta sa boses ng lalaki, ngunit hindi siya nagpatinag at mas pi
“Bitawan mo ako!” Mariing hiyaw ni Erika at inangat ang kanyang kaliwang tuhod para idiin sa tiyan ni Logan, ngunit agad na nahuli iyon ng lalaki.Her slippers fell down, and the toes painted with red nail polish curled up slightly. Erika Larson is a very contradictory person. She is gentle and kind in front of her students, but cold when getting along with the opposite sex. Anyone will praise her as a teacher.Napansin niya ang pagdako ng tingin ni Logan sa kanyang hita pababa sa kanyang paa. Erika’s fair white skin is really his weakness. Malinis na malinis itong tingnan at sa tuwing hahawakan niya ito ay para siyang napapaso. In those dark nights, only Logan knew how enchanting, seductive and hot the woman on the bed was. Iyon lang ang tanging nasa isip niya samantalang si Erika ay hirap na hirap na sa kanyang pwesto.Tanging ang isang braso na lamang niya ang nakakapit sa leeg ng lalaki at ang isa ay nakahawak sa rope para mamaintain niya ang kanyang balanse. Sinubukan niyang bawi
Erika usually only eats fat-reducing meals or meal replacements at night. Masyado siyang conscious sa kanyang katawan kaya mahigpit ang pagbabantay niya sa kanyang kinakain, ngunit hindi naman niya kayang tanggihan ang inaalok ng butler sa kanya.“Thank you.”Erika looked and saw that they were all low-calorie fruits such as tomatoes, kiwis, and carambola. There are also exquisite and delicious snacks on the side."Lahat ng pagkain dito sa mansion ay masustansya dahil iyon ang gusto ni Sir Logan na kainin palagi ni young master,” paliwanagng butler sa kanya na tila nababasa nito ang kanyang iniisip.Tipis na nginitan na lamang ito ni Erika at tinikman ang lemonade na binigay sa kanya dahil kanina pa nanunuyo ang kanyang lalamunan.“Bukod sa daily life ni Zion sa school, gusto ko rin sanang malaman ang iilang mga bagay tungkol sa pamilyang mayroon siya. Mr. Vallejo is away from home all year round. You must have more time to take care of Zion," pagsisimula niya.Nais na niyang umalis a
Erika clenched her fists when she heard Logan’s frivolous words. She wanted to pull the corners of his mouth to the back of his head and tie a bow, and stuff him with a mouthful of whole wheat bread. Sa sobrang iritasyon ay hindi na niya mapigilan ang kanyang sarili na maging bayolente sa lalaking ito na puro kabastusan ang lumalabas sa bibig.She heaved a deep sigh and calmed her expression. Nagkunwari pa siyang umubo."My preferences are not important, Mr. Vallejo, I want to talk to you about your son Zion,” kalmado, ngunit may diing pahayag ni Erika.Hindi na niya narinig na sumagot pa si Logan kaya nagpatuloy na siya sa kanyang trabaho. Nais na niyang matapos ito nang sa ganon ay hindi na humaba pa ang oras na makasama niya ang lalaking ito."Zion is a child with a sensitive mind and a withdrawn personality. Recently, he has been depressed and has lost his appetite. When he was taking a nap at school, I found that he had sleep disorders. Kahit nakakatulog siya ay mabilis din siyan
Upon hearing this, Erika immediately reached out to cover her thin lips and refused."No. I have to go, Mr. Vallejo,” mariing sambit ni Erika at akmang iiwasan na niya ito, ngunit pinigilan siya ni Logan.Kinuha nito ang kanyang kamay habang sumusungaw ang maliit na ngisi nito sa kanyang labi.“What I mean is, it's so late and I want to take you home."Agad na nag init ang pisngi ni Erika nang marinig iyon. She could feel her embarrassment crawling from her arms to her face. Bakit kasi hindi siya diretsuhin kaagad? Bakit kailangang ganon pa ang sabihin nito sa kanya?“Thank you, Mr. Vallejo, but no. I’m your son’s teacher at kapag nagpatuloy pa ang ganitong koneksyon natin ay baka mawala sa akin ang trabaho ko,” kalmado niyang tanggi sa lalaki at agad na binawi ang kanyang kamay.“It’s late. You should rest too,” aniya at tuluyan nang sumakay sa kanyang sasakyan at agad na pinaharurot iyon paalis sa mansion ni Logan. Erika couldn’t sleep well that night. She was plagued by nightmares
