I chuckled in nervousness, “Oh, haha, yep.” Why am I acting nervous? I should feel happy that I managed to get closer to Arson, an autistic kid.
“Looks like you’re already close to Arson…no, he likes you.” Theon nodded, looking at the child, “Do you like her, Arson?”Arson nodded, his hand hugging me.Theon halted, looking like he had seen this nothing before.“Why? Why are you acting strange?” I asked in a panic.His eyes darted back to me, “Saphira, do you have any experience handling kids?”I nodded, “Uhm.. yes? I had an experience at my volunteer work at my father’s orphanage.”“You know he’s autistic, right?”“Yes.” I nodded.”“You’re not afraid of him?”“Why would I be? This is a child..right Arson?” I smiled at Arson, patting his head as I knew I gained his trust. I could pat him now. Another achievement.“Do you know how autistic kids behave right?”I nodded again, looking at him like he was crazy. What's This sudden shift of“You did a good job.” My father complimented me as soon as I answered his call. Never in my life did I imagine hearing those words coming out of his mouth. I couldn't help but think if he was posses or sick. Or if he had eaten something that made him nice to me this time.I was confused and shocked about what to reply for a moment as he continued, “Well done, sweetheart. You managed to impress the CEO of Venesian Pharmacies. Is there something you need?”I scoffed. No way. Is my father offering to buy me something?Looks like this is too good to be true. As if m last day on earth.But I think I decided on what I want now.“Freedom.” I suddenly blurted out.“What?” He seemed too confused. Indeed, me too. Since I had stayed a good girl for all these years and performed everything they want, it must have shocked him. “Like a free bird. I want to leave the house and start on my own, father.” I aid the word father and called him that out of respect
I took the train and booked a flight on my own. As it was my flight, I couldn’t help but see a familiar figure. My sister...Sofia... I could feel my chest tightening, my capacity to breathe was halted and my mind going blank. I wanted to turn away, but it was too late as her eyes were pinned on me, her face had this readable expression, her usual sinister stare as if I was the most disgusting thing she had ever seen.I could feel a lump in my throat forming and my lips turning dry.How could I move on with my life if all these kinds of people are running to me?As I grew nearer, my feet felt like they were dragged to the ground. I desperately wanted to leave this place but she was quick to say, “I heard what you did. Father is in shock.”I inhaled deeply, bracing myself for what was about to come.She’s here to destroy me again. Of course.With a brave act, I lifted my gaze to her, “Why are you here?” Seems that she was not taking my response too lightly, “Of course, to see my poor
I cleared my throat. I was about to say my name Saphira. But I do not want that name anymore. I’ll use my second name. “Ziara.”He nodded, his eyes trailing down to the books I have been carrying and my big backpack as he pointed at the university ahead of us, “You’re studying at that college?”“Yes. First-year under premed. Medical Technology course. ”He gasped, “That’s a hard course. Are you planning to be a doctor someday?”I nodded blushing a bit. It’s a bit embarrassing to tell my dream to other people… He then glanced at his watch, “Oh. You must be late in class.”“Oh, it’s alright. I am glad I could help.”“Sir? We need to go now.”The butlers said, who had been watching us in silence for a while now. He shook his head, “Then let us accompany her to class.”My eyes bulged out from their sockets, “What? Sir, it’s alright-““No, I insist. It’s my fault that you are late, and besides, it has been such a long time since I visited the place.”“But your father sir-“ He asked the butl
Tik. Tok. the sound of the clock echoes as Ms. Gwen stares at me under her glasses. She had taken me to her office for the “private talk” she wanted.I stare back at her. She must be thinking about how to start scolding me.It must be about my late arrival earlier, but I figured this is a bit of a stretch. She looks like she is far more concerned about me being able to talk with Mr. Venesian.“What do you want to talk about, Miss Gwen? I am late for my next class.” I decided to be the first person to break the silence. “How were you able to talk with Mr. Venesian?”I furrowed my eyebrows, right? Because that’s what matters more now. “Haven’t Mr. Venesian explained already?”She raids her eyebrows, “He must be cheering for you just so you. Wol does not get in trouble in my class.“He’s not. He’s telling the truth. and if you still doubt it, go and ask him ourselves.”“that I the problem. Mr. Venesian is the type not to talk with anyone. He must have seen something in you… or you purp
My days as a student are much more…smooth now. I had completely adjusted, except for the cold see stares in my direction as I passed by the hallway. I am not that dumb. I know what they are thinking about. it’s about Mr. Venesian again. I am not deaf as I could hear their whispers about me.“Whore.” “Slut.”They are hating me just because I am the only one who could talk to Mr. Venesian. even my other female professors were not in the mood. give me good grades even though I did well. Just yesterday, I was surprised to see Mr. Venesian’s bodyguards at my dorm and. drove me to his house, just for him to ask me for help with his upcoming presentation.Being close to the dean is both hell and heaven. Hell because of the rumors and whispers about me, but also heaven because I get to experience the good side of this bad reputation I have.The professors might have hated me, but they couldn't give me the confinement notice. And Ms. Gwen, who had been rough with me, mysteriously left the sch
It feels good that someone believes in me. Even when I don’t.“I won’t keep it, I’m not going to use it anyway.” ‘Just take it, at least? I promise that this will be the last thing you’ll receive from me.”I sighed, “Fine.” I grabbed it and put it in my bag. not wanting to argue anymore, "When will Ms.Jennifer return, sir?” I change the topic. “About three months, I suppose,” I muttered a curse under my breath.His lips formed a pout, “Are you that sad to see me again?”“No sir, it’s just…you are the dean.”“Yes, and? I like to teach students.”“I understand, but calling me like this will only escalate rumors.’“Rumor? What rumors?”“They say I am seducing you just for my tuition. So, please. sir, stop calling for me like this.”“I understand, how about we meet outside the school?”I blinked, “I don’t quite understand?”“How did you want to make me your friend?”“Because you’re the only person who saw me as equal. Some would pity me for being in a wheelchair, some would take advanta
I sat on his face with my thighs tightly squeezing him it's an incredibly sensual way of two beautiful souls and bodies merging and coming together... love watching his facial expressions every second and I looked down at him, making sure he was not suffocated, squeezing him, chokes and controls him... I couldn't help but feel a spurt of electricity flowing inside me as his tongue moved inside me, his hands simultaneously flipping my bean. My body trembled, and I was gasping for air, and when I felt a hot liquid coming out of me, I could feel his mouth forming into a smile as he drank it I groaned in pleasure.“Your body is a temple and I’m only worshiping it.” He said, licking his lips as I got down... He pointed at the sofa, and I was snapped back to reality.“I thought we’ll only…kiss. are we crossing the line?”“How far do you think we’ll cross?”We continued making out and when we were both running out of air, we paused and drank a bottle. “I want to continue, but you are go
“I think he kept on forgetting his meds since he took that job as a substitute prof in one of my courses,” I mumbled.They all looked at each other.“We should have reminded him!”“We did! He just wouldn’t listen!”“Damn, we are really in trouble. If his father hears this…”The bodyguard couldn’t even do anything as the doors opened and a dozen of men in suits came rushing in, along with an old man who looks like an older version of Rameo…He had gray hairs and wrinkles, but he still looked dignified and intimidating. Powerful. His eyes quietly scanned the room as everyone became silent. “Where is my son?” I instantly myself to a room. That must be Rameo’s father!And behind his father, were his two twins that I mistook him as.On the right was Theon who was holding the child named Arson. “What did he do again for him to get here? I have to cancel my billion-dollar meeting for this. It better be worth it.”Arson, who still looked adorable as the last time I remembered was just quie
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
