Sweet I stroked it, making it even larger, almost as if it was angry. I bit my lip and looked up at him. Argo's dark eyes glinted, his bushy brows drew together, and his jaw tightened as we locked eyes for a moment… I opened my mouth and sucked on his strong, hard shaft. I didn't break eye contact, and I saw his jaw clench when I started to take him in my mouth. He was huge and long, making it hard to move my mouth. I could only suck on the head. I didn't know how to continue… until Argo gripped my head and pulled my hair. He helped me to pull him in and adjusted my mouth to his long shaft. I moved at my own pace, doing the best I could. “Ah, fuck!” His dark eyes reflected the disapproval in his tone. I closed my eyes to try and stop the tears welling up in my eyes because of the repeated in and out motion on his long… well, you know. Until he pulled his shaft away from my mouth. He pulled my arm, making me stand up, and only then could I breathe properly. Argo looked
Butterflies I swallowed and stayed in that position. I knew what his reaction might be when he found out the truth. “Fuck!” he said again. That’s when I found the courage to meet his gaze, which seemed to want to kill me. His eyes were now blazing with fire. I couldn’t contain his heat because my heart was already burning. He leaned down, staying slightly on top of me. His face was buried in my neck. His lips moved to my ear. His hand tightened its grip on my thigh. “You set me up in a fucking trap again.” His voice was so cold it made me shiver. No words came out of me except for the tears that fell because of the guilt gnawing at my heart. Argo moved away, leaned down, and grabbed my thighs. He tried to enter me again, this time slower and more deliberately. I felt the intense pain as his manhood pressed deeper into my opening. I flinched and almost trembled from the sting. I tried to close my legs, but it was no use. He was huge, long, and hard. How could I ever imag
I woke up to the cold air brushing against my skin. The sun was already high in the sky when I opened my eyes to my own room. I turned to my side and hugged the hotdog pillow I was using as a cushion. I shut my eyes firmly as I remembered what happened last night and his last words to me that left a big cut in my heart. I knew he was angry about what he learned, especially about my lies and the way I manipulated him and his family. I curled up in bed, my shoulders shaking with silent sobs. My tears had been flowing non-stop since I returned to my room last night. I was filled with remorse for the wrongs I had done. But what hurt even more was the realization that I was deeply in love with him and I had no choice but to get hurt. Even now, I couldn't think of what to do. How would I face him? What if he really locked me up? And what if he took back the money he gave me? I harshly wiped away my tears and got up to sit. I have to do something... Think, Natalia. Use your con-a
After we had breakfast, Madam and Aling Mareng invited me to go grocery shopping. They also bought me clothes that they said would suit my pregnancy. Even though I refused several times and told them not to buy me anything, they insisted on getting them for me. So I came out of the department store wearing a maternity dress. My face was flushed with embarrassment. You see, I knew there was no baby in my belly and it was obvious I wasn't pregnant. "There, that looks much better on you!" The lady couldn't stop smiling at me. "Thank you, Ma'am. You really didn't have to go through all that trouble. I'm fine with a T-shirt, it's more comfortable for me." But the lady shook her head at me. "You're the one my son chose to marry, so I won't allow you to wear simple clothes. It's better if we go to the bag and shoe shop, Mareng." I just returned a small smile and let her have her way. I was almost shocked at the price of the branded bags and shoes she bought for me. Not only that,
New Beginning I woke up to a loud commotion coming from outside my room. Reluctantly, I got up and went to the bathroom to get some water from the pitcher. One eye still closed, I stepped out of the door. There, I found my neighbors, Sandra and the teenage girl, Hannah, arguing. I splashed the water I was holding on the two who were pulling each other's hair. They stopped, allowing their fellow teenagers to separate them. "What the heck, people are trying to sleep! If you want to fight, go downstairs to the court, not here!" I scolded them, still half-asleep from my sudden awakening. Hannah, who was glaring at me, gave me a dirty look. "Are you going to snitch on me? Maybe I'll tell your mom that you're only interested in men and not your studies!" I quickly turned to Sandra. "You know she's someone else's girlfriend, yet you still try to steal her! There are plenty of other guys out there!" Hannah quickly approached me. "Sister, please don't tell Mom..." she begged.
I took a deep breath and without a word, knelt down in front of them. "Please forgive me for what I've done. Whatever the consequence, I'll accept it." My eyes were blurry, I couldn't hold back the tears. But I didn't hear an answer from them. The lady quickly pulled me up from kneeling. "Leave that good-for-nothing alone. I don't want to see her face in this house again!" It felt like I was being burned when Madam let go of me. Our eyes met for a moment. Her eyes were filled with tears. I didn't know if it was anger or pity for me. She quickly averted her gaze and returned to her seat. "What are you waiting for? Get out of here and don't ever show your face to my son again!" @@@ "Aren't you going to eat? The food will get cold." I heard Rosario's voice again from outside my room. It had been a week since I returned to our apartment. After that incident, I immediately went back to Argo's condo to pack my things. I left all the things Madam bought for me, even the thi
PictureI took an early bus to Batangas. My training starts on Monday, and I have one day to prepare for work.The apartment I'll be staying in is just a block away from the restaurant Andra owns. Rent, water, and electricity are covered by their company, but food isn't included. I think she specifically exempted me from the bills because she knows I can't afford to pay.I sighed as I stopped in front of the closed apartment door. I looked at both corridors, which were sparsely populated and seemed indifferent to whoever the newcomer was.Besides, it's not like the building I left where everyone would crane their necks to be nosy when there was a new arrival.Shaking my head, I opened the door and went inside. The apartment is small, just right for one person. There's a small living room that fits a sofa set and a TV stand, and a dining area on the other side. On the left is the kitchen, just big enough to move around. There's a small refrigerator there. Beside it is the bathroom, and
First Day I was at the restaurant early. I went straight to the office for a quick interview. "Natalia Punongbayan, 23 years old. Single and business management undergraduate." My lips tightened as the restaurant manager read my bio. My hands were clasped tightly in my lap because of my extreme nervousness. She glanced at me and slightly lowered her reading glasses. "Yes, Ms. Punzalan." I finally took courage to answer. "Your only experience is working at a food stall? There's nothing else written here?" My lips twitched. I saw her raise an eyebrow at me. "Yes, ma'am." "Hmm... Okay, since the owner herself recommended you, even though you don't qualify for the job, I'll take you in. Three days of training, with allowance you'll receive daily. Then you can start as a regular employee." My eyes widened at her words. "Thank you so much, ma'am!" "I don't want you to be lazy at work, and avoid gossiping during work hours." She raised her eyebrow at me again. "Yes, m
Special Chapter Love After the wedding, we went straight to the resort to greet the guests who attended the gathering. Tonight's party was also simple. Almost only select guests attended the reception. Almost everyone was happy with the way the ceremony went, especially daddy and mother who seemed to be having trouble talking to Argo's mommy. "Congratulations to our newlyweds!" Christof pronounced loudly while holding the champagne bottle in his hand. Argo approached him and hugged him before patting him on the shoulder. He looked at Paul and George who hugged him too. "Thanks for coming, I thought you wouldn't be able to make it." "Still us? We know you've been planning this for a long time." Christof shifted his eyes on me and gave a wink. So, it's true that this marriage was planned and not just Argo's sudden thought. I will definitely give him a sermon later. "Congratulations, Natalia." I looked up at Paul who was smiling widely at me. I did the same before spe
Aisle I couldn't hold back my tears while riding in the car. Mother always caressing my back non-stop. "Don't worry hija. Everything will be fine." But nothing is running through my mind right now but the possible consequences of Argo. Mother said she had an accident on her way to Calatagan. So I drove the car straight to the nearest hospital because it was said that Argo was probably brought here. But we passed several hospitals and the car still didn't stop. I didn't pay attention to that thing because my mind was still confused by what was happening. But after we got out of Calatagan, the car still didn't stop at the hospital. "Where are we going?" I couldn't stop asking Mother. But he just stroked my back and nodded to me. I let out a sigh. My heart beat harder. What's going on? I don't understand. Where was Argo taken? We were already in Nasugbu when I noticed we were heading to one of the resorts there. I looked at Mother with a look of surprise on her
Tragic NewsI had already prepared to go to Nasugbu to visit Dad's hotel there. He said that I will take care of managing there from now on. He has also notified all the hotel staff and managers so it will not be difficult for me to introduce myself. After half an hour's drive, the car stopped in front of the hotel. Right there, I saw the staff lined up as if they were waiting for my arrival. Rosario who will be my personal assistant and Shiela who will be my secretary are also there. I took a deep breath before going down after one of my security guards opened me up. Daddy requested that I be given security because of Andra's surveillance of me and what happened in the past weeks. Also, the child I'm carrying is already walking for three months, so I'm very careful with my actions. Even if Mother wanted to stop me and just stay at the Villa, I didn't agree. I want to help Daddy and reduce his work load as much as possible because I was a witness to the hours he allocated for jo
RealIt was noon when the yacht we were on docked at the Island. My smile became wide because we were greeted by some uniformed men. Some of us even tied flowers around our necks that must have been made by them. "Welcome to Isla Verde!" They welcomed us warmly. As before, there are not that many people here but there are a few people who are building small businesses here for tourists who want to go for a walk. In fact, even without electricity at night, that adds to the attraction of tourists who want to camp here. We went straight to a bungalow type where the locals had already prepared food for our arrival. The Mayor and several Councilors who met us earlier were also there. "It's good that you thought of investing in our Island. The truth is that we are having a hard time promoting the Island due to the lack of electricity supply," said the Mayor to Argo as we started eating. "I've been wanting to build a restaurant here for a long time because I think the Island has great
Isla VerdeI woke up to sunlight hitting my cheeks. At the same time, the cold wind blowing the white curtain. I hugged the pillow tightly and enjoyed the cool breeze. "Good morning, L'amour?"I opened my eyes quickly and quickly got up when I heard Argo's low voice speak. "Why are you still here?!"I didn't hesitate to lower the comporter from my body and get off the bed. I immediately looked for my clothes but I couldn't find them. "Are you looking for this?"I looked up at Argo who was holding my white loose shirt in one hand. Because of so much shock and shame, I almost jumped on the bed to grab the clothes from it. "Give me that!" Instead of giving it, I heard his crisp laugh after pulling my hips to replace his. Sticky shit, Natalia. You're completely naked. Like me, it still can't get dressed so I can freely observe and touch her hard chest. "God, you're so beautiful," he whispered. He caught my gaze and slowly traveled over the entirety of my face. His fingers caressed
My eyes were still wide open as I felt the person next to me. My heart was pounding nervously. When I noticed it moving, I quickly turned to lie down and turned away from it. I bit my nail hard and prayed that it would be a good night's sleep. But I was startled when I felt his hand touch my thigh and his face pressed into my back. Sticky shit, Natalia. . . What should I do now? Should I move? If I push him? Maybe wake up? In the end I couldn't do anything but let him do what he was doing. Maybe it's really sleeping. But my body almost went cold when I felt his hand on my thigh move. He pulled me close to him and his hand is slowly caressing up to my tummy. I bit my lips harder when he snuggled up behind me and buried his face in the nape of my neck as he continued to gently caress my stomach. "My child. . ." I softened when I heard his soft whisper. He followed with small kisses on my neck and shoulders. I closed my eyes tightly. I want to resist his warm kisses and
Sweet Fire Kiss As the night deepened, the events of the evening became more manageable for me. I felt a sense of ease while greeting guests and interacting with them. Andra and Florisse didn't cross my path again, and I noticed that the Greensmiths and the Villarosas had left early. Since I couldn't stay up too late, I tried to excuse myself to Dad and Mom. I also stopped by Shiela and Rosario's table. "We're fine here. There are plenty of boylets around," Rosario said, taking a large gulp of wine from her glass. "You're going to get drunk," Shiela chided her. "The guest room is ready for you both," I told them. "I wish I could take a leave from work, but Ms. Andra would probably scold me," Rosario said, pointing toward Andra and Florisse's table, where they were engaged in conversation with some politicians and businessmen. "If you want, you can be my secretary. I'll double your salary, or even triple it!" Her face lit up at my offer, and she nodded enthusiastically.
He stroked my cheek, which I knew was flushed with embarrassment. The kiss we shared in the elevator suddenly popped into my mind. Marco is a nice guy, I think there's nothing wrong with staying friends with him after this incident. "Are you sure you're okay now?" "Hmm. . . I guess I'm just not used to this kind of occasion, so I'm a little dizzy," I said after taking a few bites and putting down my cutlery. "You'll get used to it. Don't force yourself. Look at them, you don't have to keep up with them." I smiled at him again, then looked around. Almost everyone was busy with their own conversations. I even saw Dad and Mom talking to some of their business associates, but the Greensmiths were no longer there. "I have to keep up with them, Marco. Because I'm not the woman I was yesterday. I am now Natalia Punongbayan-Falcon. I'm no longer the weak woman they used to trample on." "That's the spirit, but you don't have to rush things, remember that you are now a Falcon. Every move
"Let us talk. . ." He took the lead, walking out of the ballroom, and I followed him with my gaze. I tried to take a step, but I heard Mom's voice. "Natalia, are you okay? Maybe you should rest in your room for a while?" She stopped me by the arm. "I'm okay, Mom." "What's happening might be bad for you and the baby?" I let out a sigh before turning to her. "Mom, I'm okay. I'll just talk to Argo for a bit." She didn't seem convinced by what I said, so I just smiled at her widely. I didn't stop myself anymore as I followed Argo out of the mansion. Outside, there were even more people and guests, who caught my attention. The orchestra was also making noise that night, despite the whispers. I just shrugged them off, focusing my attention on Argo, who was definitely heading towards the guava and mango trees. I confidently stepped into the dark part of the yard. I found him leaning against the wide mango tree. From here, only a little light reached us, and no one would notice us
