Blood and Darkness Chapter 106: Different Views
"I'm busy with my studies. I'm sure I will learn that eventually," I said even though I didn't know if that was really the path I would take for myself."Ronaldo is waiting for you there, Audrey. You should at least show up, it won't take one night. A few hours would do."Going to that party means I'm open for the plan they want for us. So until the very end, I insisted on disagreeing. Mommy was too persuasive she said she will give me a few days to think about it.“I’m just at the library,” I told Janice during our vacant hour. He is with the group on a project. I said goodbye because he might look for me after them.I put my things on my usual table. I picked up the book to review in the exams next week. I'm not really a studious person. But I also study somehow."I don't get it, April. What am I missing, huh? I am an honor student, I am beautiful and rich. But he rejected me!"I stopped reading when I heard the conversation at a nearby table. This is a place for silence, why are th
Blood and Darkness Chapter 107: Wanting to Shout
Instead of looking at the paper, I looked up at Rustov's face and stopped there. He was solving the problem seriously while I can't even understand what are those digits he's putting on my paper for. We were at their house because he promised to help me with some homework. Though, I don't think I'm doing anything here but stare at him."Did you get it, Audrey?"I sighed. Lazily, I looked back at the yellow paper. That's a pure number. The sight that never failed to make my eyes sore.“You journal the entries wrong so the trial balance is also wrong,” he said."I'm confused about the entries.""You should work on that," he said softly and handed the paper to me.He stood up and turned towards the kitchen. Back then two glasses of juice and two banana cues were laid out. Tita Gracia was in the municipality because of work so we were the only two left at home."Why pineapple juice? Say I don't want that!" my complaint."Run out of mango flavor, Audrey," there was a threat in her voice."
Blood and Darkness Chapter 108: Doesn't Seem Right
I’m just thinking about what Rustov said that he would do the same just in case, it doesn’t seem right. Does he really think he can never love again after her?"That's nonsense," I said after a while."You can always open your heart for another person. What the man did was wrong. Losing his wife isn't the end of everything."He looked at me deeply. It was as if as much as he wanted to say, he just wanted to keep quiet. He ended up sighing."There are things you still don't understand, Audrey. You'll also understand at the right time," he said like talking to a child."No. I understand the situation, Rustov. If you say that he loves that woman so much that he can't live without it, then that idea is wrong! Anyone can have feelings for another person again. Romantic love isn't. t long lasting. It will only last for a while and will disappear eventually so if he doesn't commit suicide, I'm sure he will also forget his dead wife. "He sighed, became silent and stared at me even more. For
Blood and Darkness Chapter 109: If That Happens
Mommy again convinced me to attend Gov. but in the end, he didn't force me either so we just talked about my upcoming debut. She wanted to throw a big celebration, but I told her I only want a private dinner for it. He didn’t like that either, so I we ended up almost fighting in front of our food. What's the point of a big party if I don't want to be there?"What are you, Audrey. It's your debut, it should just be a grand celebration! Years ago, you told me you want a grand debut ..." said Janice who also couldn't understand the flow of my brain.“Things had changed,” I said."Maybe it's because you're rebelling against Tita that you don't like what she wants?"I sighed and looked at her."If I want a grand debut, then I will make that happen. You know me. What I want, that's what I will do. And throwing a grand celebration for my birthday isn't part of those."She sighed."What do you plan to do then? What about a short vacation abroad? Say, Paris? London?""Not anymore. A private di
Blood and Darkness Chapter 110: Get Rid of it
"Woah. Audrey dating? That's new! Isn't Kirk, Klyde's brother from Albeda?" Enzo as ifstill amazing today."Dating? No ..." I refused."But you're flirting? He told you a story on instagram, I just saw him. He had stolen shots of you while you were driving," he said on his phone, which Enzo immediately kidnapped from me."Do you know how to drive, Drey? I thought you were going to enroll in driving lessons?"My eyes drifted on Rustov. His lips pursed into a grim line. He wasn't looking at me anymore. He's seriously staring at the glass of liquor in front of him."Kirk visited. He just taught me a little bit to drive. We're not dating or having any sort of intimate relationship.""I thought you were mad there?" and Janice."Oh, I heard it's a playboy! Maybe it's just like his frantic brother," Enzo said."That was just nothing. He just passed by because Ate asked for something.""She's been flirting with you before, hasn't she?" Janice who still doesn't want to go away.Rustov looked
Blood and Darkness Chapter 111: Pounding of Heart
Rustov:Janice told me you're not feeling well. How are you feeling What about meds?My mouth was crying. I shoved the phone in the drawer and went to the closet. He really asked, huh? If in matter. Isn't that how friends should be? Yes, we were friends. But now ... I don't know. I don’t know why I’m so angry. Or maybe ... I just can't fucking accept it. This is frustrating!I never chineck phone again all night. I went to school early the next morning to study in the library. I also missed a lot and I had to catch up. As much as I think about the factory, with Rustov, I just want to distract my mind so that my brain is occupied.I opened the book and answered the activity I was asked to do. I don't know if I understood Janice's notes correctly but it looks like I'm doing it right. I just focus my mind on what I was doing. Finals are over, and even though I'm sure the teachers won't let me down because Mommy is the number one contributor in the school, I still want to make an effort.
Blood and Darkness Chapter 112: Foreign Feelings
Even before I could speak, he got on the motor. Slowly, I followed too, breathing heavily. Compared to the previous ones, I am now more conscious of touching him. My heart was pounding hard as I put my hands on his waist. I don't know what change, but this damn feeling is very foreign to me.I know I'm trying so hard to avoid it. But in the few weeks we didn’t have a sensible conversation, the void was growing and it didn’t feel good. And now, despite my anger at Mommy, I feel relieved. It feels good to be with him like this again."Why isn't the light on inside?" I asked while looking at their house."Mama is in Capiz. Lola called," he answered and opened the gate."Have you had dinner yet?"I shook my head. I stalked him as he went inside the house. He turned on the light and gestured to mesofa. He opened the first buttons of his polo and went upstairs. When he returned, he was wearing a gray t-shirt."I already cooked the menudo before leaving. I'll just heat it up. Is that okay w
Blood and Darkness Chapter 113: Nothing Going On
"You're wrong, Janice. There's nothing going on between us. We're just friends."There.I breathed a sigh of relief.Even before I ran out of food, I stopped and drank some juice. There was quite a lot of rice, and I had finished snacking earlier so I wasn't too hungry. Rustov glanced at my plate, he was done with his food."You're not exhausted. Are you done?"Janice glanced at me with that simple question."Yeah. I've been eating a snack before. I'm not that hungry."He put his own plate on the tray and took mine. I thought he was going to put it away too but he put it down in front and took the cutlery I used!Even Janice was surprised, too."I'll just finish this. It's a pity if it's just thrown away. You should finish your food next time, Audrey. You're a bit skinny," Rustov said.I blinked. It was a while before I could process what he said because he was a bit busy staring."My body is just right. I'm not skinny!"He smirked.That lunch ended with Janice showering me with a mea

Blood and Darkness Epilogue
"You know what, darling? It makes me a little sad that I have to pass you on to another man. I had barely known you for a few days, but here you are, getting married very soon." Father laughed. "But do not get me wrong. It is okay to marry. I am fine and I am also glad too that there was someone like Ares who was there for you when I was not there. I will always be thankful to him, and I support your marriage with all my heart. And I think I know what could hush my little sadness away. You should give me grandchildren as soon as you are married.""That will not be a problem, Your Majesty," Demitri responded to the latter part of Father's speech. I looked sharply at him but he only stared back at me with gentle and loving eyes. How could I not love this very adorable man, anyway? Anyone in my shoes would certainly break her principles in order to be with him just like what I did. Loving Demitri is worth it. He is all worth it. And I am so lucky to have him as my man who would love me t
Blood and Darkness Chapter 152: Avenge the Loss
Raja slowly vanished and returned to a red smoke. It then went back to my necklace, and all I was able to do was watch the last trace of him vanish in thin air.‘Raja, are you there?’ I asked through our mind link, hoping that he’s just in the necklace and still could talk to me.But his response didn’t come. Not even his usual growl when he doesn’t feel like answering my question or when I’m doing something stupid. All I hear was silence. Empty silence that made me feel so cold inside.“Your annoying pet is now sealed, dear Ophelia. He can’t interfere my business anymore,” Ren said evilly.With tears in my eyes, I tried to talk to Raja again, but there was no answer. He was really sealed into endless sleep and I don’t have the least bit idea how to awaken him. Even King Arthur and Queen Romina thought that there was no way to awaken David. They said that the seal can only be broken by the one who did it, but in this case, I doubt if Ren would do me such favor or I could force him to.
Blood and Darkness Chapter 151: Let's See
I leaped and attacked Ren aggressively. Raja followed my move, probably thinking that he should finish Ren off before I lay my hands on him. But to my surprise, the hall’s floor turned to ice and I heard another growl, from an unfamiliar dragon this time. An ice dragon went in and attacked Raja. I saw how Ren smirked with satisfaction etched in his eyes, so I figured that the dragon must be his.“Surprised, sweetheart? You see, I am also a dragon summoner. The two of us are the same. We fit for each other. I guess it’s what they call destiny?”“Destiny, you fool! What did you do to them?! Where is Demitri?!” I yelled and lifted my hand in the air. My blazing sword appeared and I held onto it tightly as I sauntered forward.I lashed my sword in the air, creating waves of fire, but he blocked it so fast with his wind blades.“I heard you are pregnant? One month? Two? It’s not visible yet so I wonder. I suggest you should just kill that child. Its father is dead, after all. You can bear
Blood and Darkness Chapter 150: Quiet Unlucky
I adjusted my posture before following Raxon to see who was knocking. I was somewhat uneasy because of what just happened."Hi Rax!" It was a beautiful woman, maybe on her mid-twenties. It had a big smile but when it came to me the look suddenly disappeared. Raxon's admirer, huh? Maybe, they are close. It just went in and went straight to the room."Katrina."She looked at him again and smiled sexily. He openly glared at Raxon's body which I almost felt. The fool, on the other hand, doesn't seem to care if anyone sees him naked."I heard you were coming, so I went right away."I couldn't escape the fact that her breasts were almost bulging because of the clothes she was wearing. I was overwhelmed with irritation. Just when I'm on the verge of leaving them, Raxon held my waist. I notice the sourness of the woman's face because of that."Yes. We want to take a vacation for a while. By the way, this is Amara. My fianceé." Katrina's mouth dropped open, obviously startled. Even I was also
Blood and Darkness Chapter 149: Wild Beast
"I've seen you a few times at social events, but I always lose the chance to talk to you. Well, you look so stiff and distant. Looks like you don't want to get close .." He chuckled. Not interested of talking with him, I just smiled a bit."Are you ---""Amara." His words were drowned by Raxon's voice. I turned around. Standing with an authorative stance, he looked at me darkly. His forehead was furrowed, as if someone didn't like what he saw."You done?"He nodded once. He came closer to me and offered his hand. I immediately reached for you and stood up."Who is he?" He was looking at David. Eyes were cold, nothing can be seen but indifference for the person in front."Is he with you France?" David, now also standing. I nodded slowly."Raxon Bermudez, right?""Yes.""David Ardiente." It reached out its hand. But Raxon just glanced at it and then turned to me as if he had no intention of accepting it."Your clothes are already sent in the villa. You should change." My eyes almost wid
Blood and Darkness Chapter 148: Deepest Thoughts
I was greeted by facilitators entering the seminar venue. I saw many acquaintances before. Mommy's friends were even there. Even though the smile was formal at me, I could see the judgment in their eyes. I understand it. It's been like that these years."It's good that your business is up and running, hija?" An older woman with a cunning look smiled at me. Her air wasn't friendly at all."That's good. Tito Demitri's expertise in business was a great help.""Oh! If so, it's true that you're marrying the second successor of Salamedas?"What?Even before I could recover, another elder approached. I never had a chance to answer the question because they had a new topic. I just excused myself and found a chair.The seminar was held in a five star hotel. My plan would have been to just book there so I wouldn't have to travel. But Kirk's offer is also okay. I really need to reduce the cost especially and more will be needed in the factory. So it's reasonable.There is a little more program b
Blood and Darkness Chapter 147: Hardest Goodbye
Whatever happened to us then is no longer with me. It's been eight years. The amount of things that have happened in my life. And I can't almost remember how it felt. All I know is, I was so hurt when he left me. I was also very angry. But maybe because of too much problems, I eventually went numb and forgot about it."Uh, good afternoon. Are you the owner of RM Tower or just an assistant?" I asked first.He didn't look shock when he saw me. It was as if he was expecting that. Of course, for sure the agent mentioned my name! But why didn't the agent even say the owner's name? And I didn’t even ask?"I'm the owner, Miss Escareal.""Oh ..."It is not impossible that he acquired properties within those people."I'm sorry. The agent didn't tell me and I didn't ask. So ... order first?"I called the waiter."Sorry. I ate my lunch first. I hope it's okay with you," I said formally."It's fine."Even when the waiter was on the side, his gaze remained on me. If not lang the waiter laid the m
Blood and Darkness Chapter 146: Big Steps
After talking to the principal, I left his office. I took a deep breath and turned down the pathway out through the row of doors. One more turn and I saw who was waiting for me at the corridor.Frowning and frowning, Zach kicked the plastic bottle at his feet. His hair was a bit messy and there was still a stain on his uniform. He was staring darkly at the bottle, looking so pissed. When he looked up at me, his expression softened and he straightened up."I'm sorry about it, Tita."I approached and adjusted the folding of his collar."I told you, didn't I? I don't want you to get into a fight, Zach. You shouldn't have punched that kid.""But I was pissed!"I stared at him."About what? Because he teased you about being an orphan?""No. I'm not pissed about that because that's true. I'm pissed because he called you crazy!"I sighed."And you know that I'm not, right?"He averted his gaze. "Of course."My life felt like hell after Ate Diana's death. I can't talk. I can't eat. I didn’t e

"It's you. You're too uptight. It's just your job that you're always doing so you don't know what's going on around you," he laughed."You're going to a seminar next week, right? Let's leave Manila together. How many days have you been there?""Three days or four. Maybe I'll talk to the agent for the property," I said."Are you going to a hotel? I have a condo. It's big and has three bedrooms. You can sleep there if you want."My eyebrows rose."In your condo? You mean, where do you bring your women? No thanks. I can pay for my hotel. I might get sick there.""Woah. It's serious! I don't bring them to my condo, Drey. I'll book a room, you know. I'm the one who's feeling good after all?""For all I know, you just have a plan for me."His jaw dropped and laughed hysterically. Of course that's just a joke. All these years, Kirk was with me and I am aware of his pure intentions.Back then, I never thought we would be this close because I really didn’t like him. But I found an unexpected f
