And he did not touch me for the whole night. I woke up feeling empty as the space next to me was already cold.
I could see Ajax was already up as he put on his shirt, “Get up. We’ll return now.”I silently went to the bathroom to wash my face and get ready and before long, I was saying goodbye to Snow and the others.But Snow, being cheerful as ever, grabbed my hand and gave me puppy eyes, “Are you going to leave now?”I nodded my head and she pouted, “Awe, can you postpone it for a bit? I want us to sing together in a karaoke!”I glanced at Ajax, who was avoiding my eyes and Hannah came to his side.“Come on, Ajax, please? Just stay for an hour.” She pleaded and Ajax sighed.Silence followed, and we were waiting for Ajax to decide.“Fine. But just an hour.”All of the girls first bumped and instantly dragged me to the nearby karaoke house they found.We went into a room and all of us huddledI’m also shaking in anger because of the way they treat Ajax.They both looked up and down at me. “I see. You’re such a beautiful girl. No wonder my son is going crazy about you.” I blinked, not expecting them to say that.Ajax’s father then smiled at me. “I heard Ramirez's tech is going downhill. And with your father’s death…who would let it bloom?”Insulting me in my own home? Suddenly, I heard footsteps behind me and I could see my mother coming closer, “Mr. and Mrs. Sillas, I do not want to tolerate you insulting my daughter in my own home.”“Oh, sorry about that, how silly of me, speaking that to a widow.”“I believe you need to go home. You’re disrupting my family.” My mother said, standing still. Ajax's mother smiled gently, “Yes, we will if she will control our son-““I believe I have to refuse that. Ajax is your son, he is not my responsibility.” I said, grabbing my mother’s hand for support
5 YEARS LATERThe loud song echoed through the whole club, echoing as the loud drums in my heartbeat thundered.Amid the swarm of bodies dancing, the sweaty bodies grind against each other, dancing to the rhythm, forgetting about tomorrow.There he was. Standing in all his glory.Our eyes met, locking eyes even with the distance. I shuddered at his gaze, his dark chocolate eyes piercing against my soul, entrapping me.I stopped dancing and it felt like the world slowed down for us. The tension lingered as his eyes gazed at me. It felt like no one was around at this moment. I tried to act innocent and nonchalant. But I could see the faint smirk coming from his lips. He’s being photographed by the media and paparazzi around him, but his eyes stayed glued to my spot. I raised my eyebrows and winked at him. We were at the afterparty of a show and a series he was starring at. And I was invited by Manager
“Alam mo bang natuto na akong mag tagalog dahil sayo?”(Did you know that I learned how to speak Tagalog because of you?) I blinked at his sudden words. He’s fluent speaking that now…wow. I find it amazing. “Yes, and I even learned the history of the Philippines facts, and museums for you. Want me to tell it to you?” Ajax then grabbed my arm and made me sit on top of him. He leaned in and whispered, “Don’t try to act shy now, my daisy, after you were weak in my arms last time.”Goodness, it has been such a long time, and with him caging me like that…I suddenly felt weak. I gulped, feeling goosebumps as his breath tickled my neck. Instantly, I felt something hard poking behind me. I raised my eyebrows, knowing damn well what it is but I wanted to tease him. “What’s that…poking..you have something in your pocket?” “That’s not just a thing, my love. That’s the one responsible for all the moans that escaped your mouth l
I swallowed, my mind feeling a bit dizzy from his touch that the only reply I could think of right now is. “Yes,” I Breathed out, my stomach quivering under his fingertip. He ran his fingertips along the scalloped line of my panties, which match the color, and along the sides of my bra. He knows without asking that this is probably the most daring lingerie, and despite how modest it is—there are no straps or mesh or cut-outs or any of the usual trimmings that makes women’s underthings into confections of fun—it makes the entire effect more delicious somehow, more sinful. My brown hair seemed to melt into the sun and my brown eyes seemed like some waves…My eyes were hazy, giving me a naughty look. He looked down at his fingers toy with the top edge of my panties, then back up to my face. “Are you nervous, Ellaina?”I shook my head no and he smiled satisfactorily.“Good, you shouldn't be. You know I’ll take good care of you Ellaina.” He let out a strangled
I watched as the whole lights in the entire city of Paris were in the color purple, which is my favorite color. There was a whole billboard situated at the tallest building, and my picture together with Ajax was plastered on.Well, there is only one person that I know was responsible for this. One person and that is my fiance, Ajax. I glanced at Ajax, “You didn’t have to put that all across the road, babe.”Ajax raised his eyebrows, “What?”It was Paris fashion week and I was supposed to be at a show. But how could I when Ajax planted his seed on me and my belly was already full?Yes, I’m already five months pregnant and my belly is so obvious now. This also postponed our wedding, especially my brand endorsements. I could just remember seeing Manager Smiths’’s face when he heard about it. He cursed Ajax for a whole month, saying how we could lose a lot of brand endorsements for this. But he was already okay
A/N:This next story is the fourth book of the Hearts series. Thank you!***PROLOGUE FROM THE FUTURE“Saphira! Someone’s calling you.” called the company’s receptionist, Sam, as soon as I sat down by my desk to work. “And delivered rare black roses.” I raised my eyebrows. “Huh? That must be some prank callers. You know those kinds of calls, Sam.” A playful smirk played on her lips, “It says he’s from your husband.”I blinked, then it hit me. I instantly stood up, looked around if someone heard her, and covered her mouth to stop her from saying more. I dragged her to the company’s women’s bathroom and finally removed my hand from her mouth.I said “Tell me what he said more.”She shrugged, “I don’t know…but all I know was he’s your husband…Saph, I honeslty didn’t know you would be married first…you should announce it to our whole colleagues!”“No, and no. Sam, please, can you keep it a secret between us? I promise to treat you in a meal.”She nodded, “But what about the black roses?
(PRESENT TIME) “Where are you now?” Asked my model friend, Cherry as she called me. Judging from the shortness of her breath, I assume she must have just finished her walk. I ate on my croissant, the soft bread melting into my mouth. Mmmmmh…Delicious. “C’mon, it’s my birthday, I need to treat myself.”I shopped in Paris. Attended fashion shows. I am a model. I could do what I want. Except I have to have restraint because I am only the second daughter. “Gurl I’m sorry to say this to you but…open the news.”I opened it and saw Henry, my fiance, was reported to be dining with my sister.I sighed. I had expected this to happen, I didn’t know it would be on the same day as my birthday. Yes, my life has been messed up lately. I was always jealous of my oldest sister who has it all. Looks, body, fame, and even the man I loved.My boyfriend’s been cheating on me. I already knew it, so I’m going to break up with him now. I don’t even want to witness it. Stupid had gone home earlier for
Tori nodded and patted my hair, “I’ll find you a man. Let’s make Harry and that bitch sister of yours regret that.” And it didn’t take long for Tori to let me enter my so-called “hoe and bad bitch phase” as she would like to call it. The night came and she was busy preparing me for the party. I felt not in the mood to talk to anyone at this moment but due to Tori’s effort of letting me out of my comfort zone, I was slowly being pulled to her plan.“You know I prepared everything for you, I would be sad if you won’t feel happy tonight.”That were Tori’s words as she had constantly made sure to make me feel guilty.“Yeah yeah, let’s just get this over with.” I rolled my eyes at her as she grabbed a sexy red dress that hugged my curves.“This...will be the death of the men. Tonight. I am sure you will capture anyone there, best friend…” she winked at me, “and if you lured the handsome men, make sure to give one for me, alright?”I chuckled at her silliness
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
