CHAPTER 2
Ronald took me to his mansion, and I was amazed at how big his entire property estate was. I and my mobsters even noticed that there were a lot of Black men guarding the whole estate. “So, Miss kung kailangan mo ang tulong ko,” panimula niya. “huwag kang mag-aatubiling sabihan ako,” pagpapatuloy pa nito sa sinasabi niya. "I will, and I didn't know this is how big your fortune is," I commented, wandering my eyes in the surroundings. "And it's bigger than our fortune," I added. Napangisi naman si Ronald sa narinig niya, "I am one of the top mafias in the city, and the whole authorities are looking for me," he uttered while fixing his black suit. "I am also a mafia queen but got abandoned because my dad wanted me to marry the old man because his business went bankrupt,” naiirita kong paliwanag na naman. Napangisi na lang siya sa naging reaksiyon ko at naghithit ng sigarilyo. Napansin ko rin na tila naging seryoso ang ekspresyon nito at parang bang may mga nalalaman siya. “Tutulungan kita para sa pagsisimula mo na malayo sa impluwensiya ng iyong ama at kung gusto mo ay magsimula na tayo ngayon para sa pagsasanay mo,” sabi nito kaya hindi na siya nagdalawang-isip pa. "I accept your help," tugon ko. Hindi siya nag-alinlangang papasukin kami sa loob ng mansiyon niya. Halatang mahigpit ang seguridad niya rito at kapansin-pansin na napakadami nitong tauhan. Hinandaan niya rin kami ng makakain sa isang mahabang mesa bilang mainit na pagtanggap niya sa amin. Napakapormal niyang tingnan pati na ang kaniyang paraan ng pagkain. "You can sleep in my room if you want," he spoke formally while he was chewing his food. Nagkatinginan naman ang mga tauhan ko, “Huwag kang mag-aalala dahil ayos lang naman ako,” sagot ko habang ini-slice ang steak. After that dinner, Ronald asked his mobsters to take Airah’s mobsters into their room. His smile immediately melted her heart upon glimpsing at her. He settled everything in the room, so upon Airah entering the room, she noticed that there were lit candles and rose petals all over the room. Ronald closed the door behind me. "So, here's my surprise.” Nakangiti niyang sambit at naglakad papunta sa harapan ko. “Ano ang meron?” nagtatakang tanong ko ngunit hinila niya lang ang kamay ko at inilagay sa dibdib nito. He turned around, so we switched positions, and he pushed me onto the bed. "You can't just do this thing, man," I replied, and his playful smile spread across his lips. He crawled on the bed, and I was lost in his eyes again until I noticed the red cloth rope tying me to the bed. He placed his index finger on my lips. "Just keep your mouth shut and taste the softest and warmest feeling," he huskily mumbled in my ear. Dahan-dahan niya akong siniilan ng halik habang ang kaniyang mga kamay ay naglalakbay sa buo kong katawan. I couldn't resist his temptation and every touch he made until I finally gave in my body to him. He unzipped the back of my dress and started sliding his lips down my neck. I gasped for air, "I can't resist your touch and kisses.” "Of course, your body is slowly being owned by me," he uttered in a husky tone again. He undressed my top and bottom until I slowly felt his big cock entering inside me. I moaned through the pain, "I want you inside me, Ronald~" biting my lips. "Just tell me if it hurts or if you're in pain, and I will be gentle, okay?" he stated in a low voice. Paulit-ulit niya itong nilalabas-pasok sa aking perlas habang nakapatong siya sa akin at patuloy rin ang kaniyang pagsiil ng halik sa mga labi ko hanggang sa mas bumaba ng bumaba ang kaniyang mga labi. Naramdaman ko ang mga malalambot nitong labi na nasa bulubundukin ko ng dibdib habang dumudulas ang mga kamay niya sa mga braso ko. I don't know if this is right, but I feel satisfied with what he is doing to me. Every touch he landed on my body felt like a cure for every pain. My body felt pleasure, forgetting all those negative events in my head. Basang-basa na ang pagkababae ko sa kaniyang ginagawa at patuloy pa rin ako sa paggawa ng ingay dahil sa ginagawa niya. “Ronald,” I moaned his name. “Just go with the flow,” malumanay niyang sagot. “Huwag kang mag-alala dahil gagawin ko naman ang ipinangako ko,” dagdag pa niya. Kinabukasan ay nagising akong nakabalot lang ng puting kumot ang katawan ko. Iginalaw ko ang aking kamay at napansin kong wala na ito sa tabi ko. Iginala ko ang aking mga mata at hinanap ito sa bawat sulok ng kwarto. “Ronald,” pagtawag ko sa pangalan niya. Nakaramdam ako ng lungkot nang maisip na iniwan ako ni Ronald pero bigla na lang bumukas ang pinto at roon ko nakita ang nakangiting mukha ni Ronald. "I am here," he said, walking towards me. He was shirtless and wearing only shorts. "I thought you left me and it was all just to satisfy your needs," I stated in a waking voice. "Why would I do that?" he queried, frowning his forehead. He walked towards me and sat at the corner of the bed. He planted a kiss on my forehead, placed his hand on my arm, and caressed it with his thumb. He pulled his lips away from my arm and smiled at me.Sa maiksing panahon na magkasama kaming dalawa ay paunti-unti nang nahuhulog ang loob ko sa kaniya. Sinusubukan ko namang pigilan pero hindi ko kayang labanan ang damdamin ko. Tuwing sinusubukan ko itong pigilan ay hindi ako mapakali. Hindi ako matahimik na tila ba gusto ko itong ilabas at iparamdam sa kaniya ang tunay na nararamdaman ko.“Airah,” biglang pagtawag ni Ronald sa pangalan ko.Nasa living room ako, umikot ako para harapin siya. “Bakit?” nagtatakang tanong ko ngunit nginitian lang niya ako. “Bakit nga?” pagtatanong ko muli."Hmm, breakfast is ready," he uttered in a soft voice. "We'll be going to have your training today as promised," he added before he left me here in the living room. Pumunta na agad ako sa kusina at pagkarating ko doon ay nagulat ako dahil iba't-ibang masasarap na pagkain ang nakahain sa mesa. Narito rin ang dalawa nitong kasambahay at nakatayo malapit sa mesa.“Ma'am, may kailangan pa ba kayo?” nakangiting tanong ng isang kasambahay sa harapan ko."No
"What's this all about? Why did Ronald hold my hand and we look so close together?" I asked, still confused about it. "Why didn't he even tell me about it?" "Maybe, it's time to ask him or you should call your grandma since she left a letter for you," my mobster suggested. I took a deep breath. "My grandma wouldn't answer it," I replied. "Also him, so we should do something that he must confess it himself," I stated my idea. "No, let him confess, Miss Airah." My mobster suggested so I glanced up to him. "Okay, that's a good idea," I replied. “Labis lang ang pagtataka ko dahil wala siyang sinasabi sa akin tungkol dito,” komento ko habang nakatingin pa rin sa mga larawan, medical records at ang sulat na iniwan ng aking lola.Napatingin ang tauhan ko sa likod niya nang mapansing biglang pumasok si Ronald kasama ang kaniyang mga tauhan sa pintuan.Malimit itong ngumiti sa akin kaya ngumiti ako sa kaniya ng pilit. Sumenyas siya at itinuro ang hagdan, "I'll rest," I heard him state i
Ronald decided to take me out and take me to the restaurant which was owned by one of his associates. His associate took us inside without people in the restaurant getting suspicious and drawing attention to us. Inside, there's also a table and chair just like how it appears outside. "I have organized this and asked him to make this for you," said Ronald, smiling. "I'm sorry if I wasn't the one who made this, I was just busy dealing with my personal stuff," he explained and planted a kiss at the top of my forehead. "It's okay, I understand," I replied. He pushed backward a chair for me so I can sit before he went to the left chair and pushed backward a chair for himself. There's a musician playing a romantic violin for us and at the center of the table there's a flower vase containing roses, and a lit candle.Hinintay namin ang i-se-serve na pagkain para sa amin. Nang saktong ilalagay na sa mesa namin ay naamoy ko kaagad ang mabangong aroma ng pagkain. Napangiti a
Ronald gazed into my eyes, and his eyes wanted to tell me something. "I want you to know that you're the only one I can trust," he begins, his voice husky. "I am willing to take care of you and for the baby you're carrying," Ronald continues, his voice a whisper. "I am willing to keep you away from your father," dagdag niya, at inabot niya ang mga kamay ko habang unti-unting dumapo ang labi niya sa balat ko.I was surprised by what he just said. “I appreciate that,” a smile gracing across my lips. “But I want to ask something from you?”His eyes held my gaze. “Just tell me and I will answer it,” sagot niya kaya huminga ako ng malalim.I needed to lie so he wouldn’t notice that I secretly asked my mobsters to investigate him. “I-I feel so overwhelmed because it seems like we met before, we have known each other for a long time and sometimes there’s a vivid picture in my mind and I’m with this man in the past. Back then, he looks like you.” I told him, and I saw his shock expression.
Kinabukasan, pagkamulat ng mga mata ko ay napansin kong nasisinagan na ako ng araw. Dahan-dahan akong bumangon at napatingin sa paligid hanggang sa nasulyapan ko ang pagkain at isang baso ng gatas sa kaliwa ko na nakapatong sa maliit na kabinet. Napangiti na lang ako ng maisip na galing ito kay Ronald hanggang sa bumukas bigla ang pinto. “Good morning, darling.” Pambungad bati nito sa akin at dahan-dahang naglakad papunta sa'kin. “Good morning,” nakangiti kong balik bati sa kaniya. "This means a lot to me," I stated, and he walked towards me. He sat beside me and he grabbed my waist. "My pleasure, my lady, and it is one of my responsibilities," he replied. Sumandal ako sa balikat niya at biglang may lumabas sa memorya ko ngunit malabo. Paulit-ulit itong lumabas sa isipan ko at ‘tila ba may gustong ipahiwatig sa'kin. May isang lalaki ang malabo ang mukha ngunit parang parehas sila ng pigura ni Ronald. “Ayos ka lang?” nag-aalalang tanong niya. “Oo, ayos lang ako,” pilit na ngiti
Napansin ko ang bigla nitong pagpasok sa loob ng bahay ngunit siya lang mag-isa at hindi kasama ang mga tauhan nito. Kadalasan kasi ay nakikita kong nakasunod sa likod nito ang mga tauhan niya.“Where's my wife?” narinig kong tanong niya sa tauhan niya.“Nasa loob siya sir, mabuti pa siguro at puntahan mo na lang.” Tugon naman ng tauhan niya na may kasamang kilos ng kamay.“Airah, my wife?” pagtawag nito sa akin.Agad naman akong naglakad papunta sa kaniya ng marinig ko ang boses nito. “Yes, dear?” nakangiting tanong ko naman.“I just wanted to check on you,” he said, his voice filled with worry. “Are you feeling okay? Anything different with the pregnancy?”I smiled, trying to reassure him. “Hmm, just a little migraine, but I'm fine.”He didn't look convinced. “Are you sure? You look a little pale.”“I'm okay, really,” I said, reaching for his hand. “It's just a migraine. It will pass.”He sighed, settling his hand lightly on my hair. “Just let me know if you need anything, okay? Any
Nagpaalam si Ronald sa akin dahil may aasikasuhin lang daw itong inportanteng bagay. Palabas na siya kaya bumalik siya sa pisngi ko, nagulat ako ng lumuhod siya sabay halik rin sa tiyan ko. Inilagay niya rin ang tainga niya malapit sa tiyan ko. “Daddy loves you so much, baby, and don’t worry about mommy because your daddy will take care of her.” Sambit nito kaya napangiti ako. Dahan-dahan siyang tumayo mula sa pagkakaluhod sabay baling sa dalawang tauhan niya. “If something happens to them, you’re going to be dead meat,” mariin niyang sambit at turo sa mga tauhan niya. “Ingat ka and drive safely,” sabi ko kaya kumaway siya sa'kin para magpaalam na. Naglakad na siya palayo hanggang sa makarating siya sa sasakyan niya. Pinagbuksan siya ng pintuan ng kaniyang tauhan at pinagsarahan rin ng makapasok na ito. Sumama ang anim niyang mga tauhan sa kaniya at napansin kong mas hinigpitan pa nito ang seguridad dito sa mansiyon niya. Mukhang may kinakaharap siyang problema at ako naman a
Napansin kong lumapit sa kaniya ang kasambahay niya at ng saktong titingin na siya sa direksyon ko ay agad kong isinara ang pintuan. Narinig ko ang pag-akyat ng kasambahay kaya mabilis naman akong humiga sa kama. Narinig ko ang pagpihit nito sa siradura at dahan-dahang pagbukas ng pinto. Nagkunwari akong kanina pa nakahiga at nagmumuni-muni muna sa paligid. “Ma'am, bumaba na raw po kayo at mauna nang kumain,” magalang niyang sabi. Agad naman akong bumangon at umikot para harapin siya. “Ayos lang, hintayin ko na lang siya.” Nakangiti ko namang tugon pero nag-aalala siyang napatingin kay Ronald sa baba. “Pero ‘yun po kasi ang sabi ni sir at baka isipin ni sir na hindi po nasunod ang utos niya,” sabi nito at napalunok bigla. “Sige, bababa na ako.” Malamig kong tugon kaya pilit siyang ngumiti. Umalis siya sa harapan ng pinto para makadaan ako. Sumunod naman siya agad sa paglalakad at pababa ng hagdan. Sa tingin ko ay alam nito kung paano siya magalit kaya hindi na ako magtataka
Pagkatapos naming mag-usap ni Ronald ay nakita na naming bumababa na ang kasambahay kasama ang bata. Naglakad sila papunta sa amin habang ang bata nanatiling nakatitig sa aming dalawa. Naiintindihan ko ang nais ipahiwatig ng mga titig niya sa aming dalawa."Dad, you promised you'd tell me everything," Niccolò said, giving him those big puppy-dog eyes. Ronald sighed. "Okay, okay," he said. "After everything that happened, I had a feeling we were being followed. Then, on the way home, that jerk shows up—it was totally a kidnapping," he explained to our son. "I don't know what his problem is," he said, pretending and trying to sound normal.Nakita kong umupo sa tabi niya ang bata at tila naniniwala naman siya sa sinasabi ng kaniyang ama sa kaniya. Kailangan niyang itago yung totoo dahil masyado pa siyang bata para makita ang karahasan sa magulong mundo na 'to.Nagkatitigan kaming dalawa ni Ronald habang nag-iisip ng paraan para solusyonan ito. Hindi naman kami basta-bastang kumilos ag
Nanatili pa ring nakatutok ang mga nguso ng baril nila sa isat-isa. Halata sa ekspresyon nila ang galit at nakikita sa hitsura ni Ronald na desidido itong pabagsakin ang lalaki. Ramdam ko ang tindi ng tensyon sa pagitan nila."Don't you dare lay a finger on my wife," he seriously spoke. "Or else I am going to beat you up," he said, looking at him sharply. "Limb to limb," he said emphatically, remaining serious."That's her father's order," the arrogant man sneered, a proud look on his face. My eyes narrowed."He's never been my father!" I yelled, my voice cutting through the silence, silencing everyone.Sumenyas ako sa tauhan ko gamit ang index finger ko kaya lumapit ito sa bintana ng sasakyan. "Dario, keep our son safe and take him to escape if something bad happens," I whispered into his ear."Don't worry, Miss Airah, I will do my best to protect you both," he replied, and went back to his position, pointing his gun at them again.Nagsimula ng kumilos ang aroganteng lalaki at tinutu
Chapter 45They recognized me because some knew I was from the Dayron family—the daughter of the mafia boss. How could they not? They probably saw me before, a naive girl following his orders, but it's different now. My memories are returning, though I still don't know what will happen next.Pumunta na sa harap ang ama ni Ronald at nagsalita. "Good evening, everyone." Bati niya sa kaniyang lahat kaya humarap silang lahat sa direksyon niya."It's great to see many familiar faces—and some new ones, too! Thank you all for being here tonight." Pasasalamat niya sa kanilang lahat."We're here to discuss Navarra ArmaTech and its mission to make firearms significantly safer," he began his speech."Our company has developed new technology that improves safety features compared to what's currently available, reducing accidental shootings," he explained, which amazed everyone."We've secured key partnerships and project strong growth; to expand and bring this life-saving technology to market, we
Once we were inside, we walked towards the round cocktail tables covered in red cloth. A man looked at Ronald, and recognizing him, he grabbed two wines and approached him. He offered Ronald the wine, which he immediately accepted.Nilapitan naman ako ng babaeng nakapulang dress. "So, you are his wife," she said, glancing from head to toe with a playful smile on her lips."Yes, I am," I replied, grabbing a wine from the table.I sipped plenty of wine while still holding my son's hand. I even grabbed some food and gave it to my son. This girl kept watching my every move."So, tell me, how long have you been married?" she asked interrogatively. "Oh, for that, it's already seven years, dear," I responded, trying to speak casually."Where did you two meet?" tanong niya na mas lalong sumeryoso pa ang ekspresyon ng mukha niya.Nginitian ko siya ng pilit at uminom ng wine bago sagutin ang tanong niya. "You know what? To clarify things," I began, staring at my wine before gazing up at her.
Habang patuloy na bumabalik ang mga ala-alang nawala sa akin sa nakaraan ay parang mas tumitindi pa ang galit ko sa aking ama. Pinaglayo niya kaming dalawa noon dahil lang sa alitan ng pamilya namin. Sobrang laki ng ginawa niyang atraso sa akin at tinago niya sa akin 'yon sa napakahabang panahon."Ronald, where are you?" tanong ko habang naglalakad sa pagitan ng mga sofa dito sa living room."I am here," sagot niya at bigla na lang sumulpot sa likuran ko."Oh, you're here." Sambit ko ng makita siya.Naglakad ito paharap sabay upo sa sofa na parang walang gana sa lahat ng bagay. Naglakad ako papunta sa kaniya at umubo sa tabi niya. Napapansin ko na tila may mabigat itong dinadala base sa ekspresyon niya."Anong problema?" tanong ko."Your father already acted again, and we need to take action first," he began. "I can't just let you stay here like a prisoner forever. Maybe once I'm leaving, you can come with me and Niccoló to throw them off the scent." He explained everything to me."Yo
Kinabukasan ay pumasok si Ronald sa hidden room at pumasok sa parang elevator na salaming pabilog. Mabilis ang pagbaba nito at tumigil ito sa may computer and monitoring area. Kusang bumukas ito ng lumabas siya at naglakad palapit sa mga computer kung saan ay ino-operate ito ng mga tauhan niya."Can you show me that one?" he asked, leaning in."Sure, boss." His mobster replied, zooming the video from the computer using the mouse. This monitoring video is the hidden cameras within our mansion and the place where he used to meet that old man. Ronald smirked when he realized something. "The only thing we need to do right now is to wait for a perfect time to kill that old man, and about Mr. Dayron, I ain't going to kill him yet," he said in a cold manner. "Boss, isn't your wife going to get mad?" his mobster asked, so he chinned up and straightened his posture. "No, in fact she actually wants to kill him too." Ronald replied to his mobster.May mga kasapi rin kasi sa samahan ng orga
As time passes, there are strange things that appear in my memory that I couldn't understand. My headache has always been taking up until there's an event that appears again and there's a man with a blur face. I didn't understand why and my eyes widened when his face slowly became clear. "It was him—it was Ronald." I uttered in shock. This kind of event keeps appearing in my mind and my memory was recurring again. There's a reason I know and maybe the medical records that have found statements saying that I have amnesia was true. I continue to let that event reoccur again until I saw a man who figured like my father who forced us to break up due to our unsettled families issue on both sides. "They postponed the wedding that was supposed to happen," I said, inwardly. Until it appears that we choose to live together and decided to go to another country to live. Ibang klase talaga siya at ngayon naiintindihan ko ang ibig niyang sabihin. Paunti-unti ko ng na
"I need to face these things," mariin kong sabi kay Ronald. "I will kill him," I said, gritting my teeth. "There have been a lot of times, I know that, and let's wait for the perfect time since we'll be working to fix it for you," he uttered, explaining to me. "I can't hide forever and keep escaping this issue," I stated, glancing at him. "If we're going to do that right now, we will both die since, aside from what I heard, he won't let you away. He's willing to take you dead or alive." My eyes widened and my ears perked up at his words. I was stunned for a moment. "How could he?" I commented in disappointment. Hindi ako makapaniwala sa narinig ko at hanggang ngayon ay nakaawang pa rin ang bibig ko sa sobrang gulat. Hindi ko siya maintindihan at paano niya ito nagagawa sa kaniyang sariling anak? Ano ba sa tingin niya ang ginagawa niya? Nahihibang na ba siya? Huminga ako ng malalim at nag-iisip ng paraan tungkol sa pangyayaring ito. Ang bali-balita naman ay nakaangat na ang neg
Nakauwi na si Ronald kasama ang mga tauhan niya. Hindi maipinta sa mukha niya ang pagod at nahalata ko 'yon sa kaniyang ekspresyon. Sinalubong ko siya kaagad at niyakap sabay halik sa pisngi nito."Kamusta ang lakad mo?" nakangiti kong tanong."Maayos naman," panimula niya. "Sa ngayon, delikado pa rin kayong lumabas dahil nalaman kong hinahanap ka pa rin nila." Sambit nito kaya nalungkot ako bigla sa isiping iyon.Sobrang tagal na namin dito sa mansiyong ito na hindi lumalabas. Ang tinuturing kong tahanan parang preso na dahil sa bawat paggising ko ay paulit-ulit na sulok ng pader ang nakikita ko."Kailan ba ito matatapos?" malungkot kong tanong sa kaniya."Pasensya na kung tila kayo'y preso na lagi na lang nakakulong sa bahay na 'to pero ginagawa ko naman ang lahat para mapabilis ang pagbibigay solusyon para sa problemang ito," mahabang paliwanag niya sa'kin.Sinulyapan ko siya. "Ayos lang," pilit na ngiting tugon ko.Naglakad ako papunta sa sofa para umupo doon at tumabi naman ito s
