Sariel's point of view

"Are you sober?" Maddy growls at me. He's still lying there and staring at me, like, Siguro kung natutulog parin ako, alam ko na kung paano niya ako gisingin. Like, kunyari ako si Aurora tapos siya, 'yung Prince na hahalik sa akin para magising ako. Ha! Anebe ang delulu ko naman.

"I'm moderately functional." I beam at him and slightly touch my temple, dahil parang minamartilyo ito ng walang tigil.

"I'll take that as a no," Maddy hisses, getting up from the bed.

"Saan ka pupunta?" Hinawakan ko agad ang laylayan ng t-shirt niya, tinignan niya ito, at binalik ang tingin sa mga mata ko. Binitawan ko naman ito kaagad, sumandal sa headboard ng kama at pumikit.

"I'm going downstairs, I'll check on the others and prepare breakfast. Take your medicine first and follow me in the kitchen," he responded before turning and leaving the room.

Inalala ko 'yung nangyari kagabi from watching Mean Girls, the series of Dares, at hindi ko na alam ang sunod na nangyari, lasing na

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 25 - Threat

    Maddox's point of viewAster, Kaelyn, and Sariel are going to the mall. Inaya nga ako ni Sariel, pero hindi ako makakasama dahil meron pa kaming importanteng gagawin. We are still here at the rest house with my siblings na mga kulang ata sa aruga."Kuya, tingnan mo 'to," Kenzie snapped, then laughed in reaction to his antics before showing me his phone. He played the video he recorded while Nyx dared to apply makeup without a mirror. Tsk. Siraulo talaga 'to. Narinig naman ata ni Nyx ang video dahil naka full volume pa 'to. "Hoy! Tarantado ka talaga, Kenzie! Papatayin talaga kita. Hali ka nga rito!" Sigaw ni Nyx at hinabol si Kenzie na ngayo'y tumatakbo na palabas. Ang kailangan lang naming gawin ngayon ay hintayin si Lowe. He explained that he left early because he had a meeting with Sunny. For God's sake, I don't know why. Si Owen and Lexi, naman ay kasama 'yan sila sa meeting namin mamaya. Wala naman talaga silang pupuntahan, rason lang nila 'yun kay Sariel.Sa three weeks na 'yun

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 26 - Bookstore

    Sariel's point of viewNandito na kami ngayon sa National Bookstore kasama si Kaelyn at Aster. Isang malaking cart lang 'yung kinuha namin, si Aster na rin ang tumutulak. Buti nalang talaga same vibes ko 'tong si Aster, si Kaelyn naman ay hindi ko alam kung saang station na 'yun. Basta kami ni Aster busy tumingin-tingin sa mga Dark Romance book, action and mystery thriller, sige isama na ang Fantasy. "Hey, ate Sera," Aster called and came to me, showing me a book. "Nabasa mo na ba 'to? Twisted Emotion and Twisted Pride?" "Oh? Hindi ko natapos, pero masasabi ko talaga na maganda siya at ang galing ng author magsulat. I am just unable to finish it. It's the type of sensation where I can sense the pain in the characters words every time they're throwing it. Damn, it's just one of my collections to support. Oh my gosh, I honestly can't. I'm also heartbroken, just like the characters," I said with a chuckle."How about this?" May ipinakita ulit siyang libro, pero sinapawan 'yun ni Kaelyn

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 27 - Talk

    Sariel's point of view "Let's go outside? We can't talk here in the middle of the bookstore," I respond. Pero bago 'yun nakita ko sina Lexi at Kenzie na nakasilip sa amin. Nasa stationary station sila. Kinunot ko ang noo ko sa direksyon nila. Anong ginagawa nila?Naglakad na si Maddy palabas, kaya sinundan ko nalang siya. "Wait, saan tayo pupunta?" He did not respond to me. I assumed we would go inside the lift, but instead he goes to the stairs and waits there. I hesitated, but I had no choice—I had to talk to him about Murphy. He motioned for me to follow. This is for staff use only and is heading to the restricted area. Bakit naman dito niya ako dinala?I growled at him, "I told you we needed to talk." By now, I'm starting to get pissed.He answers, "Yeah, I know. So, talk," with a fierce expression in his eyes. I shot him a look like, Are you kidding me? Talk? Here? At sa personnel-restricted area pa? Wala ring dumadaan na mga tao. Malamang self, restricted area nga. I'm not thin

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 28 - Menstrual period

    Sariel's point of view"Ahhh," I moan, but remember, we're in public and someone might hear me, so I stiffen my moan. I'm really wet down there. He slides his fingers slowly and deeply as he fucks me, moving them in and out. I make a sound like a sob as I clench around him. Gustong-gusto kong sumigaw, pero hindi ko magawa, gracious, para akong pinaparusahan, pero kakaiba, ang sarap. His fingers feel good—they're huge and fit inside of me—but this is the first time I've experienced it with other fingers. I mean, I do finger myself, and it svcks, but at least I'm experiencing the pleasure. He entered another digit, and I arched my back.With a sinister gleam on his face, he glances down at me. My eyes rolled at the back of my head. I trembled all over. As his fingers delve into my pussycat, it melts on his palm. As the orgasm lingers, he slowly circles. "You good?" I nodded, as if my voice were trapped in my throat. He slowly and deeply rubs around my clitoral area, his hand remaining i

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 29 - Too sweet

    Sariel's point of viewIt's been a week since those stairs happened. Ang lala nga ng menstruation ko. Sinabihan na ako ni mommy na magpa-checkup, pero syempre, ayoko. Bahala nalang si Eva. Hindi rin ako umiinom ng mga pain reliever, basta hindi ako mahilig sa gamot. Kahit nga magkasakit ako, paracetamol hindi ko iniinom. Naalala ko pa kung gaano niya ako inalagaan, na parang baby niya. Like, dzuh? Baby, naman talaga niya ako. Ang lawak talaga ng pasensya niya. Buti nalang tiniis niya, 'yung mga pagtatantrums ko. Lagi ko na rin siyang pinupuntahan sa penthouse niya, like diba? Babae pa pumupunta? Pero hatid sundo naman niya ako, sa bahay nalang rin ako ni Meli nagpapahatid.I'm currently lying down on his couch in the living room. I'm clutching a hot compress on top of my belly. Okay, naman na ako sa hot compress lang, naiibsan naman talaga 'yung sakit. "Hey, do you want some chocolate?" he asked while approaching me. My eyes brightened up when I heard the word chocolate. "Yes, pleas

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 30 - His daughter

    Third person's point of view"Dad, are you okay?" She gently asks her dad. Nagkita sila sa isang maliit na Inn para walang may makakilala sa kanilang dalawa. "Yes, I'm fine," he hissed. Hindi na kasi niya alam ang gagawin dahil nalulugi na talaga ang business niya. Ang kailangan lang niya ngayon ay ang anak niya, na makakatulong sa mga plano niya. "How was it going with you and the guys?" he asked her daughter. Mababakasan ng pag-aalala ang mukha ng kanyang anak. "Okay lang naman, po. I think busy pa sila sa kanya-kanya nilang mga gawain," his daughter explains. He smirks at what he hears."Then, let's start with one of them, the not-so-known." Excited niyang sabi. Mabilis naman sumang-ayon ang anak niya at humagalpak sila ng tawa na parang mga baliw."So? Where's the location? I think we should find a place far away from civilization that no one can find or a thousand-year-old abandoned place," she suggests. Patango-tango lang ang ama niya. Well, namamangha siya sa katalinuhan ng

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 31 - Planning a hike

    Maddox's point of viewSariel asked me to sing. I don't know, but it's been a long time since I sang. I hesitated initially, but when I glanced into her almond-pleading eyes, parang hindi ko ata kayang tumanggi sa kanya. Kaya ayun, tinanong ko nalang siya kung anong kanta ang gusto niya. And she requested Too Sweet by Hozier, madali lang naman siyang kantahin. If I relate her to the song "Too Sweet" I'm not sure whether she deserves a man like me. I can't promise to protect her, but I've already told her that I own her and that my world is dangerous for her. Yet, I don't think I can let her go. I don't want another man to own her; I want to own her for myself alone. I may be seductive to her, but I am also merciless, and I am afraid that I might hurt her in the future, and I can't protect her for myself. She's too good for me, and I hope I don't regret owning her, but if that happens, I'll deal with it later. Damn. I'm too far along to think about it just now. Did I overthink it?I s

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 32 - Foster child

    Sariel's point of view"What?!" I shriek at Maddy. Omy. Bakit naman nangyari yun?"Yes, I'm not sure what actually happened. Anyway, I have to figure it out. Pupuntahan ko muna si Kenzie, okay ka lang ba rito?" he says worriedly at me. I jumped up on his lap and settled down next to him."No, uuwi muna ako sa amin. Balitaan mo nalang ako kung anong updates," I say sadly. May balak pa naman sana kami maghiking, pero naisip niya na itutuloy pa rin namin ang hiking."Kay Meli mo nalang ako ihatid, dadaan ko pa mga gamit ko dun.""Sure, come on, let's go," he replies, rising up and holding my hands. I grabbed my belongings, and we left his penthouse. Nang makapasok kami sa elevator ay tinanong ko siya, "Who do you think burned it?" Of all places, why Jungle K? For goodness sake, there's just lots of wood in there. Ano ang mapapala nila sa pagsunog nito? Parang gusto kong sakalin ang mga taong gumawa nito, tao pa nga ba tawag sa kanila? Mas masahol pa sila sa mga masamang hayop, e."I'm n

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 109 - φινάλε

    Sariel's point of view The closure that I've been looking for has come to an end, and Maddox and I are no longer in any danger. It's been a long time. Now we are in the city of Amsterdam. It was at the narrow bridge that Maddox made his second proposal to me. Wala ng mas makakapagpigil sa kanya, e. Tinotoo talaga 'yung biro na mag-propose 'ulit. As for my mother, she has decided to remain in this wonderful place permanently. She has found a Dutch partner here, and I will always be there to support her. She has earned the right to have a life with the man she loves now and to take care of each other, but I will never forget about my father. Gusto ko lang ulit sumaya si mommy gayong siya nalang mag-isa. Ayaw din naman niyang sumama sa amin ni Maddox. I am currently six months pregnant, and Maddox is such a sharp shooter. My second baby, and it's a girl. Minsan nga pinaparinig ko, na sana siya nalang ang nagbuntis kasi ang hirap naman 'yun. Well, I set aside those thoughts. For

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 108 - Reconcilation

    Sariel's point of view Everything is going smoothly fine, but when Maddox stormed into my house one day, It feels like we are back again at our storming bekering. "Wow? Akala ko ba nakapag-usap na tayo? Hindi pa pala sapat 'yun. Ano pa bang gusto mo?" "Yeah, I thought so. But you know what? I'm waiting for you to tell me that Mason is my son, but you didn't. So when are you going to tell me that? When he's old and not really knowing me as his father?" He spat. Napatahimik naman ako sa sinabi niya. Hindi ko naman akalain na mas mauuna pa niyang malaman, 'to na dapat ay ako ang nagsasabi sa kanya. It's just that naghahanap lang ako ng timing. Ngayon sana kaso 'yung timing ng pagpunta niya rito sa bahay parang kidlat, ang bilis. Huminga ulit ako ng malalim at tinitigan siya. Buti nalang wala rito ang anak ko, kasama niya si mommy gumala. "So? Can we talk in a calm manner?" I ask, tilting my head. "I'm calm!" He yelled, and I raised my brows at him. "Why are you yelling now?"

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 107 - Closure

    Sariel's point of view Well, every day feels different now. Maddox's comments don't intimidate me. Instead, I'm moving forward with what's going to happen. Nakakapagod ng takbuhan ang mga pangyayari, parang lumalala lang nga, e. Palagi nalang kami nagsisisihan. Parang walang katapusan. My phone buzzed. Nang tingnan ko kung ano ay ganun nalang ang pagkunot ng noo ko. Talaga lang ha. Pinaalala pa talaga. Wala na nga atang pakiramdam ang lalaking 'yun. What if nandoon pala ang asawa at anak niya? Tsk. Bahala na nga. 'Meet me at the Jungle K; I know you remember where it is. The place you're held captive with' That was his text message. If he wasn't my son's father, maybe I'd kill him already. Kill him with my love then; I don't want to be brutal anymore. Shame on me. There's a lot of memories in there, Jungle K, that poured out of my heart, expressing my regret and my desire for something or longing. I'm sitting in our modest living room, the moonlight filtering through th

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 106 - Son

    Third person's point of view As Lowe, Mason, and Sariel finished their food, Sariel's son excused himself to go to the bathroom. Lowe and Sariel volunteer to accompany him, but Mason says that he can handle himself. See? Sariel's baby boy is kind of an independent na talaga. Hinayaan nalang siya ni Sariel, masisilayan naman niya ito papunta kung nasaan man ang bathroom. Tsaka, this is a luxurious resto, so Sariel is expecting that there's no bad, evil people lurking there. Lowe, on the other hand, has already seen his brother and is concealing his expression to prevent Sariel from noticing it. Baka mahambalos na talaga siya nito. Initially, Lowe had stated that he would not interfere in their relationship. However, upon witnessing his brother and Sariel's intense longing for each other, despite their denial, Lowe decided to intervene. As for Mason, he's already in the bathroom, one of the cubicles, and once he's done. He got out jumping a little bit; he just was hyper about the f

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 105 - Dinner Date 

    Sariel's point of view After those incidents happened, I've been contemplating what to do. I didn't answer well to my son's question, and I don't like to lie to him either. I need to talk to Lowe. I know he's here because he followed me back to the Philippines after my flight. I'm about to call Lowe, but it seems luck is on me right now; he's calling me already. I swiped the answer button, put the phone in my ear, and walked back to my room. I just checked on my son, and he's still asleep. It's Sunday today, and later in the afternoon we're going to visit sister Jane. "Hey, whats up?" Lowe greeted. I open the door, push it back with my foot, and then head to my bed to settle in. I heave a deep sigh. What should I tell him, then? "Oh, ano na? Parang ang laki naman ata ng problema mo niyan, ah. Abot pa ata rito 'yung pag buntong hininga mo ng malalim," he exclaims and laughs out loud at the other line. I snorted and rolled my eyes even though he couldn't see it. "Scram, tawang

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 104 - New World 

    Sariel's point of view After six years, my son has grown up, and I and my mother raised him in the United States for those six years. I was called to the company that my uncle had previously run when it was brought back with us when he was arrested 6 years ago. We'd like to thank our lawyer for that. Now that six years have passed, I'm experiencing mixed emotions. For those six years, there has been someone I trust at the company, so I don't have any concerns. However, right now, they really need me in the company, so I don't have a choice but to bring my mother and son back to the Philippines. I began running the business right away once we got to the Philippines. I'm currently in traffic on my way to pick up my son from school. I merely sighed and drummed my fingers on the stirring wheel, signaling that I was anxious right now. I’m simply frightened that he’ll come out again and wait in the waiting shed, despite the fact that there are guards outside. I’m just concerned that

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 103 - Amsterdam 

    Sariel's point of view In order to get away from all that was going on in the Philippines, my mother and I settled down in Amsterdam and purchased property there. And now we live in Amsterdam, where we are able to repair the scars that have been in my heart. I was able to kill time by creating whatever I wanted, including a cake, a cookie, and whatever else I desired. There is a small bakery that we own; although it is small, people adore it and absolutely enjoy all of my baked goods. But the only thing that worries me is that a month after I found out I'm pregnant, I'm happy because Maddox is the father of the child. However, I plan to keep it a secret from him, as he harbors a deep-seated hatred for me and believes that retaliation is always on the horizon. Nakaramdam naman ako ng symptoms, pero binaliwala ko lang sa inaakala na palagi lang akong pagod for baking. Kaya nang hindi ko na kinaya nagpacheck-up na ako, kasama ko si mommy. The fruit that happens is the night wher

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 102 - Runaway 

    Sariel's point of view I dialed my mother's number, the second ring, when she picked up. "Hello, dear? You already decided what to do?" She greeted. "Yup? Ready to kidnap me?" I playfully chuckle to myself. "Right away. Wait for me." She chirps, then the call ends. I make sure to leave the less important items behind and bring only the essentials. Isang backpack lang 'yung dala ko. Hindi ko naman balak ipaglandakan na maglalayas ako, na sana aakalain nila na namasyal lang ako rito sa Jungle K. I will miss this place so much. My phone beeps, and when I see my mother's text messages, I cautiously and silently stroll around the back of the house, taking care not to be noticed. They're still in the living room. Nasa hindi lang kalayuan ai mommy hinihintay ako, nagpa booked lang siya ng Grab. Dadaan lang kami kahit sandali sa puntod ni daddy para magpaalam. Nang makalabas na ako ng bahay ay napahinga ako maluwag, buti naman at hindi nila ako napansin. Tinakbo ko na ng tuluy

  • Billionaire's Tale of Retaliation    Chapter 101 - Asylum

    Sariel's point of view Lumapit nalang ako sa kanila at umupo sa harap ni Maddox. Hindi ko na tinapunan ng tingin ang babae na kanina pa nakatitig simula nang lumingon siya sa akin. Yay, pangit na ba ako sa paningin niya? Namamaga pa kasi ang mga mata ko. Maddox didn't mind it, though. My stomach became more sour as I stared at the prepared foods. My gaze flew to Maddox when he started to speak. "This is Winona, Sariel, and Winona, that's Sariel." He gestures back toward me and Winona. "Winona will be staying here for a moment. Nasa Cebu pa kasi si Meli kasama si Aster, kaya walang makakasama si Winona, I just can't let her stay alone in the hotel. She's just here for a vacation," he explained her reason for being here. I shrug my shoulders, not caring if she stays here or not. Bahay naman niya 'to. "Sure, nice meeting you. Feel free to roam around as you wish. Just don't mind me." I look up at Winona and smile at her. She just smiled back at me. "Thank you, Sariel. Nice mee
