Craving Pleasure (English) CHAPTER 39: Grandchild
Nala’s Point of View“If that’s what you want, no problem.” Daniel Cordova grinned widely as if he had succeeded again and took out his phone to type something.I could feel my heart beating rapidly with each passing second. My mind felt clouded with all the worries. There’s air conditioning here, but I’m still sweating.What would Hugo think if I told him to give his position to my father? Would he think I’m taking advantage of his love for me? Would he regret loving me? Would he be angry with me?I bit my lower lip. Just the thought of Hugo getting angry because of my decision already hurts my heart. I love him so much, but I also love my sister so much.Whatever the outcome of this decision, I will accept it. Even if Hugo gets angry with me, it’s okay. It won’t change my love for him and our child.I subtly placed my hand on my stomach. I’m scared. I’m scared for our future because of the impulsive decision I’m making.My gaze shifted to Doc Tami, who was still sitting quietly. She
Craving Pleasure (English) CHAPTER 40: Father
Nala’s Point of View“W-What are you saying?” I asked, my voice trembling.“Just like what I’ve said, I’ll help you escape, but you need to protect my grandchild in return, dear. I know that you are pregnant with Lionel’s child, and don’t try to deny it,” he said.I avoided his gaze. I couldn’t bring myself to look at Hugo’s father. I couldn’t deny to him that I was pregnant, something I easily denied to Damian before. His presence was too cold and intimidating, and I didn’t know if I could believe and trust him.When I looked at him, I remembered what Hugo had told me about him. I remembered the pain in Hugo’s eyes as he talked about his father. Thinking about those things hurts me deeply.“I’m not an enemy, dear,” he said seriously when I didn’t respond. “I know you already know what Lionel and I are up to and how useless a father I am, but I want you to know that I love my son, and I thank you because you didn’t give up on him. You loved him in a way that I couldn’t as his father.”
Craving Pleasure (English) CHAPTER 41: Escape
Nala’s Point of View“Please wait for me, baby. I’ll come back for you… I promise.”That was the phrase that kept running through my mind as the hours passed and I was alone in the room. I didn’t know why I was so nervous. Hugo didn’t want to leave me alone earlier, but I insisted he leave because it would be dangerous if my father found him here.I found out that he had pretended to be a guard outside my room, which is how he got in. He was wearing a mask like the other guards, so he wasn't noticed. He didn't really plan to hide in the bathroom until my father came in. He didn’t mean to overhear our conversation.He also knew that Damian wasn’t really a traitor three days after I was brought here, but he didn’t know that Damian was on Sir Leonardo’s side, so he was also surprised by what he learned.I tightened my grip on the phone he left me earlier. Only his number was there. He said he would call when everything was ready. The plan we would follow was the plan Sir Leonardo told me
Craving Pleasure (English) CHAPTER 42: Downfall
Hugo’s Point of ViewEverything happened so fast. My heart is pounding so fucking hard, and I barely breathed while waiting outside the operating room where Nala was. I don’t know what I’m going to do. I wanted to shout about my frustration, but I don’t have enough strength.Why did our fight with Daniel Cordova have to escalate to this point? Why did Nala have to get involved? She’s pregnant, for Pete’s sake!I can’t help but blame myself for what happened. If I had just accompanied her earlier, she wouldn’t have been shot and fallen down the stairs. We wouldn’t be here in the hospital right now!I forcefully pull at my hair.“Fuck!” I curse and then punch the wall with my bare hand, ignoring the pain.“C-Calm down, Mr. Fabellon. Nala will be fine, as will your baby,” she says. “All we need to do is be strong and pray for both of them,” Tami adds in a soothing tone.My jaw clenches. “How can I fucking calm down when I know that my family is in danger right now?!”She bows her head.I
Craving Pleasure (English) CHAPTER 43: Peace
Nala’s Point of ViewI slowly opened my eyes but immediately closed them again when the bright sunlight hit my eyes.Did I fall asleep outside?I furrowed my brow and sat up from lying down while still keeping my eyes closed to adjust my vision. My chest felt incredibly light. It felt like I was floating for no apparent reason.Once my vision fully adjusted, I looked around my surroundings.“Wow!” I exclaimed. “It’s beautiful!” I added, standing up from sitting on the dark green grass.I couldn’t believe what I was seeing as I looked around. I let my eyes wander in awe at the breathtaking view of the vast garden surrounding me. The flowers of different colors and shapes brought life and beauty to the surroundings. The plants, whose names I didn’t know, were abundant in fresh green hues.I had never seen such plants and flowers before. I didn’t know they existed.I looked up at the sky. I couldn’t see a single cloud except for the blazing sun, which didn’t feel harsh on my skin. It pro
Craving Pleasure (English) CHAPTER 44: Bath
Nala’s Point of View“So, how are you feeling? Don’t you feel anything strange about your body?” asked Doc Tami as she peeled an orange.I shook my head. “I’m okay, Doc Tami. Actually, I could be discharged today,” I joked.I still call her Doc Tami even though I know she’s my sister because I’m not comfortable calling her Sis or Sis Tami. I told her that on the second day since I woke up, and she understood. She said it’s understandable because we just met. Everything takes time, she said.She raised an eyebrow. “Don’t be so sure. You might feel something different after you’re discharged.”I pouted. “Is there such a thing?”“Of course. It’s not impossible. I’ve had patients who just left the hospital but came back because they felt something different,” she explained. “Here. Eat this. It will help you. Oranges are packed with vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants, which can boost the immune system, improve digestion, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases,” she explained.I took the p
Craving Pleasure (English) CHAPTER 45: Child
Nala’s Point of ViewI woke up earlier than Hugo the next morning. I got up slowly so as not to wake him. As far as I remember, he doesn’t fall asleep right away after we do that thing, so I knew he must still be tired. I don’t know what else he did because I fell asleep right away last night.I went to the bathroom to wash up and brush my teeth. Then I went downstairs to prepare breakfast. It shouldn’t be a problem for me to move around the house, right? The doctor said I’m okay.I was still wearing Hugo’s loose clothes when I came downstairs. It’s fine because it’s just the two of us here in the house, but there are still guards outside.I’m grateful that Daniel Cordova is no longer a problem. I don’t know if he’s still alive, but Hugo assured me that he wouldn’t bother me—us anymore. I trust him, so I believe what he said.And now that our battle with the Pure Blood Organization is over, our lives have returned to normal. Dominic has been busy with his own life, so he hasn’t been a
Craving Pleasure (English) CHAPTER 46: Pain
Nala’s Point of ViewI left the hospital with a mix of emotions. I wanted to scream, but it felt like I had no voice. I wanted to cry, but it seemed like I didn’t have the strength to sob. My hand was shaking as I walked aimlessly along the side of the road, not caring if I was hit by cars.The sun was hot, but I didn’t feel any pain. My whole body was numb from what I had learned.I felt betrayed.All this time, I was no longer pregnant. For two weeks, I was oblivious to what happened to my child! I couldn’t even mourn because they kept the truth from me!It hurts! It's extremely painful to lose a child as a mother. I didn’t even see, touch, kiss, or do anything. I didn’t even make her feel a mother’s care. I didn’t even apologize earlier. I neglected her. I failed to protect her!This is my fault.I didn’t know where my feet were taking me as I continued to walk. I ignored the people who were glancing at me. They probably thought I was going crazy. I didn’t care.I heard my cellphon
