I wasn’t even finished saying that as he was quick to maneuver the car. He was humming a tune happily. “No, no, I won’t let you change your mind! Let’s go now!” He exclaimed and I chuckled at his enthusiasm.
Silence soon followed but I could feel his stares at me. “So? Where are you taking me?” He asked after a while of driving in silence.I just shrugged, “Just somewhere.”He nodded, “I see you like keeping it a secret. That makes me more excited.”I raised my eyebrows, suddenly having an idea in my head. Oh no, Ellaina, your mischievousness is kicking in…“Just turn right in that alley.” I pointed and he did as I ordered him to.I could see that we finally lost the media and we were going to the place I was familiar with...This was where we used to live when we were still not having enough.This is whereAs we walked, I looked around. I’m not lying but I’ve been here last year since my schedule was packed. It’s nice to see that the town has improved a lot. Well, other than the few unsafe spots…of course crimes are still happening but it's not that prevalent compared to the past. I spotted a street food stall selling chicken intestines, chicken feet, takoyaki, fried banana, egg waffles, and balut which is a duck egg. There was also some refreshing juice like coconut, pandan, mango, and avocado. I gulped, suddenly craving all of the food. “You want to eat there? Let’s go.” Ajax grabbed my hand as he guided me there. It was a bit packed as there was a lot of buying and I managed to squeeze in. It’s thanks to my height that I was able to insert myself into the crowd. “Miss? Can I buy some chicken feet and…” my voice seemed to drown
I didn’t have any choice but to do as he wanted. I went into the fitting room to change and when I returned, Ajax was already paying a the counter, along with the other souvenir keychains, pins, and all random stuff. And he bought about a hundred. “you bought a lot.” “I’ll be giving this to my family, my workers.” I didn’t know he would be so thoughtful. “We have somewhere to go to right? I; 'll h=just have them deliver m orders.” “You know you could save more money if you bought t another store. this shop isrippingg your money.” “Don’t worry, I have a lot. And think of it as my way of helping this store.” We then walked hand in hand. I pushed his hand away but he was persistent. “Hold me, I might get lost.” I didn’t have any choice
I instantly stopped him, “No it fit Only a few people come here. And hearing the people’s chatter calms me.” We entered the restaurant and I spotted the familiar workers who had been nice here. “Good evening ma'am and sir, table for two?” My favorite waitress, Manang Inday asked. “I didn’t know you’ll have your boyfriend here with you.” I nervously chuckled as I could see Ajax’s grin beside me. I shook my head, “He’s not my boyfriend, manang Inday.” She frowned, “Oh? That’s sad, you two suit each other. Ang gwapo nya, Ellaine!” (he’s so handsome!”) I just chuckled and Ajax glanced at me, “What did she say?” I just shrugged, “Nothing.” He doesn't have to know that. I know he’s been complimented his whole life. And that might just inflate his ego. If I could only count the times that I heard that since ear
Suddenly, men in suits came.“Get aside. We’ll take a master to the hospital.” They then grabbed his body. I recognized them as the same men as his brother. So they were watching us all this time?“Take me with you.” I approached them and asked, to which they looked at each other.“No-“ another one of them said. “Yes, we’ll take you with us to interrogate you later.” The other bodyguard said, which I know as their leader. They then put Ajax’s body beside me in the SUV and they didn’t waste a second to lead him to the nearest hospital. Damn. I felt so guilty that he was in that state. He was directed to the best room available and I waited outside.Everyone was in a panic, and with the bodyguards, we crowded the waiting room.My eyes felt heavy now, and I looked at the time. 1 am. Usually, I am at the location of my shoots, hungry and busy but now I am in a hospital…I didn’t know that I fel
“Do you want to take this further?” He asked, eyes searching for mine but my mind was hazy. But then I suddenly got cut off from my daze as I remembered the reason why we are here.“No, Ajax, you’re injured.”“And so? That doesn’t stop me from doing this.”I got down from his bed and instantly stood up. I fixed my appearance and cleared my throat, “We shouldn’t…do this. I’ll call your bodyguards and ask if you can be discharged.”I felt awkward, so I didn’t bother facing him and just left the room. One of his bodyguards, the one who put a blanket on me earlier offered to take me home. Once I was back in my condo, I instantly slumped on my sofa, not even bothering to take a shower. I was too tired and lazy to do it that I nearly fell asleep. Plus, these days have been too much for me. I feel like I was out of my home for days when it all only happened in one day.I didn’t know how many minutes passed but I was
His lips suddenly formed a smirk and grabbing my hand, he planted a soft kiss on the back, “Come to my place Ellaina. With me, I promise no one can dare to harm you.”I gasped, what? What is this man’s plan?I frowned at him, “Wait a minute, you are suggesting I should live with you…?” I clarified in case I heard it wrong. He nodded, still grabbing my hand with his, “Yes. Until the situation is settled, Ellaina. I am not forcing you, but I am just suggesting the easy way out. I assure you, a guaranteed 100% safety there.”I scoffed, pushing his hand away, “No, it was because of you that I have a dating scandal in the first place. If you didn’t appear in my life like that then I must have just been living and now on my shoots.”And it is too much for me. As someone who came from a conservative family, it’s not normal to live under the same roof with someone that is not your relative or husband. And with Ajax’s case, he is neithe
He snorted, “Tsk, I’m sure it would be you who won’t survive. You’ll soon give in to my charms, Ellaina.” He then guided me to the kitchen and asked me, “Are you hungry?” I paused, now noticing how hungry I was. I glanced at my phone to see the time almost nearing dinner. I nodded at Ajax, “Yes.”“What do you want?” He asked patiently, waiting for my answer. I shrugged, “I think I could eat anything now…” I paused, “Why? Do you cook?”He then put on an apron and winked at me. I looked at the apron he was wearing, there were little cats, no, hello kitty, drawn in it and it looked tight on his arms. It must have been for a woman as it was too fitted for him that his muscles were bulging through. “What are you looking at, princess?” He asked through my stares and I chuckled. “The apron is too tight for you. and the hello kitty patterns.” I voiced out loud, laughing at him. “I know I look weird but atleast I made you laugh.” He said, looking dead serious. I could see his cheeks were
He didn’t have to finish as I instantly slammed my lips on him, pulling him in shock. He instantly recovered and smirked, “I’ve been stopping myself for days now, Ellaina. I want to lick you and touch you in even more places.”I gulped. Well, at least, that was my imagination but it didn’t happen. Wait, why am I imagining him doing that to me?Am I that stressed to imagine that kind of thing? I shook my head to clear away my thoughts. Instead, Ajax nodded understandingly, going over to me and sitting beside me. He then leaned and I closed my eyes, waiting for his lips but when I only felt cold hair hitting, I opened my eyes to see him looking down. He cleared his throat, “I’m glad you liked it.” He sighed in relief. “Make sure you eat, Ellaina, I’m concerned about your health.” I nodded, but scowled as I realized what he just said, “Concerned? Why would you be concerned?”He sighed, “I asked you, manager, how have you been dealing with anything, and he mentioned that you have some
THEON’s POV AFTER A YEARI was laying in bed with my wife, and she stared at me.I fell deeper into her long red hair as I inhaled deeply, smelling her shampoo scent, the same scent I call home. I gazed at her eyes, the same eyes I fell in love with.This is my home now. And I would never replace her with anything else. “I love you,” I mumbled, caressing her pregnant stomach. She’s six months pregnant now with our child and this has been my morning every day. I then grabbed an envelope and made her read it, “Happy birthday, babe.” I then kissed her passionately. “Thank you for carrying our child.”She gasped, “Did you feel that?”I blinked, “Felt what?”“A kick! Our baby is kicking!” She gasped and I rained kisses on her again.“Okay stop, I’ll read this first.” Saphira chuckled, and read my gift. Good day, Ms. Saphira. We would like to inform us that your request on buying an acre of land on the moon has been granted Frthermmore-“She stopped reading and glanced up at me.“Is this
Jeric arrived ad drove me t ou destination with my eyes blindfolded. I decided to go with the flow instead of asking more questions as this might only make or break the surprises that Thon prepared for me.It must have been half an hour driving in Silece and when we arrived, Jeric guided me forward.“go to the left Forward. there.” I heard another person was present besides Jeric.“Mathoe?” Ia sekd.“hi.”“why are you here?”“Oh, nothing, I happened to walk by…just kidding. I came here for the food..”I still have no clue what place he is so I rusted Jeric’s directions. “You can take off your blindfold, ma'am.” He said and I did as he told me. I adjusted to the sudden light and I noticed that we seemed to be in an empty room.There were flowers everywhere and roses on the ground and with balloons.Jeric gave me a chair and I sat down, looking for any sign of Theon.I waited for a minute when suddenly, music started to play. “Here we are all alone in this room (Oh)And girl I know w
“I will have you in this desk twice until you beg for mercy,” Theon whispered as he teased the hell out of me when we arrived at the cottage we were supposed to be staying in tonight. My prayers go to Snow's workers who are assigned dot kill this room because I don't know what the bed will look like tomorrow. It's like it's not him whenever he blurts out sexy and dirty words to me. but I am loving it. “Is that seat taken?” points to his lap, not backing down too. We had developed into pure bliss the whole night. and the cottage was filled with moans and groans of pleasure, desiring each other. The trip to Snow’s resort was already over. We only spent one night there before we had to head back for Arson. Arson wasn’t pleased when we returned. He missed us too much so we decided to take him to dinner outside.I am glad that Theon is also opening his doors and letting Arson outside and letting him experience what a normal child would. He also let us dance by the rai and even joined u
“Hi, I believe you know me already,” Snow said, winking at me. She must be the life of the group with how quirky and bubbly she has been. She has been entertaining all of us since earlier. She has hazel eyes and chocolate brown hair and a petite frame. She’s the smallest of the women. “This is my husband. Eion Hudson. We are both half Filipino half American, in case you wonder.” The handsome man with jet-black hair and emerald eyes beside him nodded his head in silence and kissed her on the forehead. “He’s a man of few words but possessive. He owns this resort originally and named this after Snow that’s why Snow’s resort. And they own some shops and stores across the country.” Explained another handsome man. I could see he is a bit goody. He has been cracking some jokes for a while now and he had a nice smile. He nudged Eion, “Hey, thanks me man. I am always your spoeksperosn here.”Eion rolled his eyes at his friend.The goofy man faced me, “I am Phoenix, by the way. The only full
Theon took me the next day to his office for his ‘Bring your family in the work day.’“Good morning!” I greeted his coworkers who were supportive of us. “You two suit together, sir!” One of them commented. “Ever since Saphira became Sir Theon’s girl, he’s always been in a good mood.” I chuckled, this was not the atmosphere they had last time. They were all tensed and nervous every time Theon was present. uI am glad things improved and their nervousness about him changed.“Sir Theon is not moody anymroe.”“And we can joke around him now with your presence.”It ess a bit embarrassing as his secretary avoided his eyes on us. Maybe because he still remembers when he walked in on us doing the deed at Theon’s office the last time… Thank goodness that our stranded issue at Samal was not reported by the media due to the fact that Theon was one of the famous heirs in the billionaire world.Theon’s schedule is very packed as he had conferences here and there. This is because this father r
“Are you ready?”Theon softly grabbed my hand for support as soon as we arrived at his home, with his brothers behind us. I breathed in, preparing myself before hopping out of the car and going inside.My feet were dragging me and it felt so scary. And nerve-wracking to meet the parents.Theon decided to freshen up ourselves first and make ourselves presentable. We went through the back and I went to my room here. When we were prepared, we returned to meetup on the second floor. “Tsk. Why are they even here?” Matheo rolled his eyes as we walked. “They are getting old and senile.”“Let’s just show our faces. They might have been worried about our incident…”We went to the living room to find his father pacing around as he was talking to someone on his phone with some Italian words I don’t understand. Her mother was very calm as she sipped on her tea and she looked up once she heard our footsteps.“Theon. My son.” She stood up and kisses the three of them on the cheek, “Rameo, how a
Rameo, who was an expert at this, sighed, “It’s the caterpillar rash..he must have laid some…we need to treat that with creams, ice packs, or vinegar.”“Vinegar?” I gasped, that would be too painful!Matheo disappear to find anything that could help us. Anything that might have been washed ashore. When minutes later, a loud scream from a girl, followed by a man’s appeared. I recognize the man as Matheos and it was inside the woods. “Omg!” The girl yelped. Wait, A girl?We insanity ran to the source of the yell to find Matheo on the ground, and in front of him were five women with a flashlight on.They were looking at us with the same shocked expression and Mathoe stood up. “Hey there, ladies.” He started to flirt with them and I hit him in the head.We have people here other than us! we are finally rescued!This would be very helpful for us!My mouth went wide in shock, “W-who-I mean how?”“Uhm….are you guys alright here? I think it is not a good idea for camping.”One of them comme
Judging by the shape of its head, I instantly knew it is a python. Too much watching from discovery channel made me this way.“That’s a python, chill!” I said, reassuring him “Python? Wow!” It didn't even reassure him. I think I just traumatized him. “It’s not poisonous.” I said, “and it seems to be still growing. Its mama might be around somewhere.” “Mama? You mean there is a bigger python here?” Mathee looked so shocked right now as if he could faint anytime. I rolled my eyes. “Is this your first time seeing a snake?”I caught the snake and threw it away. “Goodbye, snakey. Awee, you must be lost. Find you, mama.” “Wow! You have an Amazon woman right here.” Matheo commented.“Good job, babe.” Theon complimented. After that incident, we were awake the whole night because of Matheo. Our backs are also snipped by little crabs and we were wrapped with mosquitos.This was the most uncomfortable sleep I had ever had. Plus the leftover fish we had last night seems to be missing. I th
I showed him my panties and he gasped. “But you’ll be all naked down there!”“So?” I chuckled, “At desperate times like this. We have to use desperate measures. And relax, they are far from here.”He then looked at me worriedly, “Be careful moving!” It didn’t take an hour for us as I instantly got four fish! I decide to get more so we could have two fish each and reserve some for tomorrow in case it might be high tide and we couldn’t fish. When we got ten fish, we decided to stop and head back. I put my panties back, just cause Theon was scared for me. The sky was getting dark now so we have to be quick. We had an overall view of the island and according to Rameo, we are blessed we have everything we need here…coconuts for water to avoid dehydration, sea for fish, and tall trees for shade from the sun. Since the sun was out earlier Matheo climbed the trees earlier to get some coconuts. I was surprised he managed it so we don’t need to worry about our water source for now. Food
