I refused to budge and gave him a hard stare. Argo frowned and gradually let go of my arms."You only have the right to my child, but you don't own me, remember?" I squeezed my arm hard, then turned away with a smile on my lips.What's the matter with him, he hasn't even touched me and now he wants to possess me?But I was taken aback when he suddenly turned around and faced me, so I backed away. He also drew my back so close to him that I almost fell into his wide chest.Argo gave me a scowl. If I didn't look away, our faces would have almost touched."I own you, Natalia. Maybe you're forgetting that you should be in jail right now rubbing bars if it weren't for me." His voice is deep and resonant.I inhale his hot, fragrant breath, which saps my energy. I might have fallen if it hadn't been for his hand supporting my back.I tried to swallow but couldn't get it past my throat. Because I'm so nervous, I can't even move.Argo's gaze follows my nose all the way down to my lips. My body
I got up early the next day to prepare breakfast for the guests. Paul and Christof fell asleep here, while George took Barbara and Gellie.Paul caught up with me in the kitchen while I was still singing."Morning! How is your sleep going?""It's all right. I awoke to the wonderful aroma of your cooking."When I placed the cooked bacon, hotdog, egg, and tomato on the table, I smiled."Coffee?""It's me, maybe it's bothering you too much, what do you drink in the morning?" he asked, turning to face the coffee machine.The truth is that I drink coffee every morning. I'm purging milk every morning because I'm pretending to be pregnant. I even drink it in my room on occasion, especially when Argo is not present."I only have milk, you see. I'll get it ready "I said this as I returned to the stove to continue cooking the rice."Are you really that difficult to cook?"I looked over at Paul, who had already returned to the table and taken a seat in one of the chairs. He looks so hot in his sa
I couldn't help but wipe the tears that fell. I'm feeling so heavy right now. This is how it feels to be accused of something you did.I'm so sorry for the numerous sins I've committed. I don't know how I'm going to get out of it.I blinked when Argo handed me a tissue."I don't want to see anyone crying, so wipe your tears," he said, his gaze fixed on the road.I accepted the tissue quietly and wiped my tears. I even sniffed there because I had been sniffing for a while due to a cold. I took out another tissue and wiped my tears."You should have just waited for me to come back before leaving the boutique," he said solemnly."I'm sorry, I was planning to go home."To be honest, I had planned to give him a gift after learning that it was his birthday today, but it appears that I won't be able to do so."Brace yourself. I don't want mom to see you looking like that when we get there."I nodded slowly. I cast a glance at him, who had completely removed his sunglasses. He is also dressed
FirstHe stooped down and lifted my face, which was already damp from tears and the champagne the woman had earlier poured for me.He immediately grabbed my empty stomach and asked, "Are you alright? Does anything hurt?"I vigorously bit my lip and shook my head. The only thing I'm moving right now is the foot I tripped on earlier."My foot,"Before touching my hurt foot, Argo gave me a long look and a moment of his attention.Hijo, what does this mean? Maybe you've forgotten that wowan ruined your arranged marriage to Florisse.She was so enraged that it was almost hysterical.But instead of responding to the lady, Argo looked up at me again. "Can you still walk?" he inquired.I moved my foot a little, but it hurt. That's when Argo arrived to pick me up. Almost everyone was making a fuss at the sight, so I had no choice but to bow."Are you insane?!" The lady nearly passed out from rage after seeing what Argo had done."You may leave my house at any time!" said Argo solemnly.The lad
Wind BlowsThe nervousness in my heart persisted even as I took a bath. My concerns about what will happen next will not go away. How can I deal with Argo when he can already take me out with the tip of his finger?I bit my lower lip firmly. What if something worse happened earlier? I'll probably go out ten more times just in case.I, too, can't take my eyes off the face. His warm hands are still there, draining my strength. His touch, his body heat, and his deep gaze made my heart race.This night I've been dreading will undoubtedly come. If I had the courage to seduce him at first.and give him my cherished honor, I seem to want to withdraw. Because it appears that I'm still falling into his traps.And I'm not prepared if it turns out I'm not pregnant. What will he have to say? He'd surely get angry and throw me in jail for lying so much, right? Based on what I witnessed them doing earlier at the hut, it is also certain that his marriage with Florisse will take place.I shook my head
BungalowWhile staring at him, I inhaled glassy air. I would have gone back to the water to hide if I could.Even though the wind is blowing hard on my skin, I can still feel his warmth inside me.He came to a halt a short distance away from me. His hand is now sliding into his pants pocket as he fixed me with an unwavering stare."Did I tell you not to leave your room? Why are you taking a bath here?" His voice was deep and disgusted."Because the sea is beautiful, fascinating..." I softly smiled at him, trying to calm the rumbling in my stomach."Did I tell you not to leave your room? Why are you taking a bath here?" he asked, his voice deep and disgusted."Because the sea is beautiful, fascinating..." I softly smiled at him, trying to calm the rumbling in my stomach.Even though it was dark, I knew he noticed my smile. He quickly averted his gaze and clenched his jaws several times.I forcefully bite my tongue. I wish I could explain his eyes and how the sound of his voice fills my
Nightmare"Enough! Don't hurt my mother!"I sobbed loudly as I clutched the hem of my mother Ruth's dress. Uncle Oscar is drunk again, and he began arguing with Mother."Hey, you kid, don't get involved if you don't want me to replace you with your useless mother!"I looked at him, still clutching the hem of his gown. We had just returned from the bakery when we ran into the drunk uncle.He must have lost the cockfight again, as he became inebriated and irritable. Mother is the one he always hurts, but I am always to blame because of my interference."Do you really want to give up?"Uncle grabbed my arm, so I let go of Mother. I cast a quick glance at him, who was quietly adjusting his unkempt hair and clothes. I know she's exhausted from the day's work, so she doesn't have the energy to argue with uncle and wean us.When Mother turned away from us and entered their room, I bit my lower lip tightly. I don't want to hold a grudge, but I believe I did the right thing for my uncle by let
BeachWhen I awoke, the sun was nearly still. I rushed out of my room, my eyes bleary."Morning!"I heard Apollo, who was carrying a large watermelon, greet me. I also noticed Aling Mareng, who was busy putting food on the table."Uh, morning..." I stammered."Good to see you up; come on in for breakfast," Manang said.I looked around for Argo and turned quickly to the bathroom where he had come from, wiping his wet hair with a towel. My attention was drawn to her bare chest.As I stared at his gorgeously hot body, my heart rate increased and my cheeks turned red. The water dripping into his body made my knees weak."Hmm, your mouth drools,"When Manang whispered after passing me, I blinked and looked away. I began by clearing my throat and averting my gaze completely. When I met him in the bathroom, I walked and bowed.As I passed him, my nostrils complimented his scented body, I sighed. Before entering the bathroom, I closed my eyes briefly.Sticky crap. After what happened last nig
Punishment When my feet came to a halt in front of the closed door, I hesitated. My back stiffened as I stood frozen on my feet. My grip on the glass of milk became even tighter. I took one more deep breath before opening the door. My gaze was drawn to his oak table right away. He was leaning on his swivel chair, the wine he had been carrying in front of him. He looked up, his hard eyes transfixed in an evil stare. I swallowed hard, feeling as if he was flaying me alive while staring at me. "Please take a seat," he said to the single chair in front of his table. I nodded slightly and followed what he said. I took a sip of milk from the glass before setting it on the table. "What are we going to talk about?" I couldn't stop myself from asking. I stared at him blankly, nervousness coursing through my veins. "I'd like to plan our wedding as soon as possible," he said quietly. I was stunned. My breathing became labored as my body froze. I assumed he was joking earlier, but I didn't think
Throbbing heart"Are you insane?"Florisse couldn't stop talking. She also rose from her seat."Take back what you said, son; I didn't raise you to marry a woman with no manners!" His father yells. He even smacked the table, which made a loud noise."Argo, you're kidding, right?" Florisse laughed.But I missed Argo's response. His gaze is fixed on me and what I may say about his confession.But I quickly averted my gaze from him and rose to my feet. I guess I can't take what's going on. I broke Florisse and Argo's relationship the second time.Yes, I'll admit that this is what I really wanted to happen at first: to seduce Argo and make him mine forever. This is also one of my methods for avoiding my problem with the lie I told. But I didn't think I'd gotten to the point where my lie to Argo had peaked.I shook my head and was about to open my mouth to speak when her mother grabbed my wrist and pulled me back."Return to your seat, hija," she said firmly.I can also feel the tightness
DinnerI swallowed my throbbing heart and looked him in the eyes. The emotion in his eyes sang to my heart.This can't be a dream, I thought as I blinked. He really kissed me? I quickly pressed my lips together and drew back."We can swim now," he said as he led me to the water and dove in.I was stunned for a few seconds before being jolted awake by the splash of cold water on my face."That face is so ironic!" he chuckled.I saw his hidden teeth emerge, which appeared elusive in my eyes. My lips then began to form a soft smile. My heart skipped a beat, and warmth poured down my cheeks."Ahh!"I hit the water hard to wet him. I didn't stop until I was close to him. Until he grabbed my hips and yanked me into the deep water.I had to claw my hands over his shoulder because my feet couldn't feel the ground. I had no choice but to hold on to him because it was obvious that he intended to go deeper."What are you doing..." I bit my lower lip and closed my eyes in frustration, but I was s
L'amoureWe boarded a small boat and proceeded to the yacht one by one. I'm still not myself as a result of what I heard earlier. I have no idea why I decided to go island hopping.Argo's mommy is probably waiting for me for lunch. When I get home, I'm going to go straight to the mansion.I walked carefully to the other side, holding on to the railings. I've only ever been on such a lovely yacht. It's only in movies and on the internet that I've seen it.Almost the entire yacht is white, as is customary. It has a large front space as well as a large lounging area inside. I'm sure there are rooms upstairs, the last of which is the control room.I simply chose to stay at the end, overlooking the clear water below. We're also getting further away from the shore and have no idea where to go."Do you like the view?"I cast a glance at Paul, who was standing next to me. He bowed to the railings and turned to face me after putting both arms there."I can't see anything but water, but this pl
