VLADIMIR

I watched Riva as she walked down the stairs. She's wearing a beautiful dress that hugged her body in all the right places. The smooth fabric seemed to move with her in every step.

My jaw clenched while staring at her as she came closer. Fuck. Something was amiss, but I tried to brush it off. This night is for her. This is the first time I will take her out for a date after she returned. And it's been more than a month already.

I smiled when she stopped in front of me. I held out my arm to her which she happily hooked hers. She looked up and grinned at me excitedly.

"Where are we going?" she asked.

"You're still impatient, huh?" I chuckled. She's been asking me that since last night.

"I already told you it's a surprise," I muttered while looking straight into her eyes.

"Fine," she smiled. "It doesn't matter anyway. As long as we're together, I don't care even if you take me to the end of the world."

Once again, I felt the stupid twisting pain in my chest upon hearing her word

    YVONNEI was beyond shocked. Who would have thought that I would see him here out of all the places we could have bumped into each other?Every day when I go to work, I always imagine what I would do if he suddenly showed up. I created different scenarios inside my head. I was planning how I would react if ever I saw him again.Damn it. Why can't I remember anything now? I swear I've already prepared myself for this moment. But everything seemed to vanish now that he was here. And with Riva nonetheless.I took in a sharp intake of breath. It's none of my business anymore. I shouldn't let myself get affected by their presence. I should not show it at least."Here!" Selene's voice seemed to echo inside the quiet restaurant.My gosh! I suddenly wanted to tape her mouth or something! Can't she behave for once?!"There they are," Dr. Phil said as if I didn't hear Selene loud enough.We went to our table. I sat beside Selene while Dr. Phil took the remaining seat between me and Dave."This

    VLADIMIRTime seemed to stop as I watched her in slow motion. It's as if the whole world ceased to exist. All I could see was her.What the hell is she doing here?!I mean, I know this place is near the shelter but I never thought I would bump into her, let alone eat in the same restaurant!And why the hell is that man's hands all over her? Why is she letting him touch her?!My fingers tightened around the utensils in my hands as I watched him gently guide her in as if she couldn't walk on her own!What is the meaning of this? I glanced at their table where Dave and the other woman sat. Are they out on a double date? Who is the man she's with? Does Dave know him?My jaw clenched as I watch the asshole pull out a chair for Yvonne. How long has it been since the divorce was finalized? One week? Two weeks?It doesn't matter. The point is, it hasn't been long. But she's already here going out on a date looking so fucking beautiful!Fuck. Wait. Did I just compliment her?I scanned her from

    YVONNEI missed him. God, I missed him.I am so close to jumping on him. My whole body ached for him. I wanted to hug him. Kiss him. But I can't...Riva is just outside, waiting on their table..."If you have nothing else to say, I'd like to leave, please," I told him before I changed my mind.Thankfully, he didn't argue anymore. I have to muster all my strength to force myself to walk away from him. My heart felt like breaking at each step I took.I gasped. My eyes widened when I realized who was in front of me. As if it wasn't torture enough, here comes Riva who must be going to the washroom. This is the first time I'd be seeing her up close.I clenched my jaw to keep a straight face as we walked past each other. I couldn't help but glance at her face.She looked better now than the first time I saw her. Of course, she's with Vladimir now!My heart was beating so fast, I think it could jump out of my ribcage! My knees were buckling when I got back to our table. I drew a long breath,

    YVONNEI woke up to find Selene cooking breakfast. The mouthwatering scent of whatever she was making woke me up from my dreamless slumber."I'm sorry I rummaged through your kitchen," she said unapologetically."It's fine," I muttered my mind still dazed with sleep. I wanted to stay in bed but unfortunately, I can't.It's Monday and I needed to go to work. I groaned while pushing myself to get up. I barely got any sleep last night. Vladimir occupied my thoughts until the wee hours of the morning. At this rate, he should seriously pay me rent. Damn it."You look like shit," Selene chuckled."Tss, tell me about it," I scoffed."You can use some coffee. Do you want me to make some for you?" she asked."Don't bother. I'll do it," I said.I made a cup for both of us. We ate together in silence. It was the kind of silence that felt welcoming though. "Will you go to the shelter today?" I asked her."Later," she replied. "I have a therapy session with Dr. Gomez."We have a few therapists in

    YVONNETime stood still as I watched him walk towards me. My breathing hitched. I was torn between fleeing and running toward him."You are late," he muttered when he stopped right in front of me.He only said three words. Three words that were enough to turn my world upside down. I found myself staring into his eyes once again and I just knew it.Yesterday may have been a coincidence, but this one is certainly not.Why is he here? I know the shelter is under his foundation but he rarely goes there! I'd been working in the LGC Foundation for a few months, but the only times he had been there was because of me!Was it wrong to assume that he was here for... Me?But why?Did he suddenly realize that he missed me when he saw me yesterday? Did he wake up this morning and finally acknowledge he wanted me back?Tss. Stop dreaming. I quietly told myself."Good morning, Vladimir," I heard Dr. Phil.I took a deep breath before taking a glance at him. I must have completely forgotten about his

    YVONNE"Ahh..." I couldn't stop my moans. It's hard to admit it, but I missed this. I missed him. So bad...I clung onto his nape to pull him even closer. I kissed him back with the same intensity. And it seems like he has no plans on stopping soon.And I have no plan to fight him either...I felt Vlad taking steps away from the wall while still carrying me. The next thing I knew, he had already made me sit on top of my wooden desk. One swipe and I heard the papers rustling as they fell onto the floor. It all happened without having to break the kiss we were sharing.He pressed his hips onto mine, making me aware of his heavy arousal. I couldn't help but moan again. He pushed me down the table until my upper body was already lying on its cold surface. My legs are still wrapped around his hips. His kisses moved down to my jaw, then further down to my neck."Uhh!" I moaned when his tongue darted out and started laving on the sensitive skin of

    VLADIMIRThe next morning, I found myself driving to the shelter. When I realized what I was doing, I wanted to curse myself.Fuck. What is happening to me?After hitting the brake, I slammed my hand into the steering wheel. I massaged the bridge of my nose frustratedly while taking a harsh breath.Why am I making it a big deal? LGC Foundation is under my company. It's only normal to know what was going on with its projects, right?Right. That makes sense...With those thoughts, I headed to the shelter only to find Yvonne still wasn't there. I glanced at my wristwatch. It's only a few minutes before eight in the morning. She must be on her way so I decided to return to my car and wait.My jaw clenched when I saw her come out of that man's car. I went out to confront her. I was almost blinded with rage but I tried to keep myself together. It's okay. She's single now. She can go out with anyone she wants.Bitter bile drenched my tongue."If you have nothing else to say, I still have a l

    YVONNEI looked at Vladimir, who seemed to be busy with something on his phone. His forehead was creased while he stared at its screen. He picked up his cup to take a sip of coffee before pressing the screen with his long fingers.My cheeks heated profusely at the sight of them lazily tapping on the keyboard. Damn. Vivid images from my dream the other day played inside my head. I gulped an imaginary lump in my throat as I tried to shake the dirty, dirty thoughts that started to pollute my mind.And here I thought I was getting better from my hypersexuality ever since I started the therapy. I sighed.I hadn't even thought about sex for a while! I had been so busy at the shelter I barely had time for myself. I'm usually dead on my feet by night, so all I want to do is sleep.Vladimir must have something to do with it. He can easily rouse the deepest, darkest desires that I thought I had completely shunned. He's really a devil in disguise! A walking temptation...Just look at him now. He

    VLADIMIRI wished she could have stayed in bed with me a little longer, but I knew she had things to do—and so did I."I'm gonna drive you there," I told her as I got out of her bed.I don't understand how I was able to sleep soundly there. Perhaps it was my exhaustion or maybe it was just her. She has the ability to calm all the raging demons inside me."Uhm, okay," she hesitantly stated. "Coffee?""You don't need to bother. We can grab some breakfast before we go to the shelter," I said."Oh," she nodded before hurrying into a door which I assume was the bathroom.I looked around her tiny unit. I don't know why she's putting up with this when she can get a better place. I made sure she was paid enough to live comfortably. That was the only thing I could think of when she refused to accept anything from me.We dropped by a cafe to have our breakfast before I drove her to the shelter."I'll pick you up later," I told her when I stopped the car."Uhh," she played with her fingers on he

    YVONNEI stared at my phone's screen. I sighed and put it down only to pick it up again. I scrolled randomly before finally tossing it away. I don't know why I seem to be waiting for it to ring or something.Oh, who am I kidding?!Of course, I was waiting for him to call or at least send a message! I chewed on my bottom lip, replaying our last conversation in my head. What if that was just a dream? Damn it!What did he even mean when he asked me for some time? What am I supposed to do? Should I just stay here and wait until he comes back? It's okay, right? I should give him that. But...Damn. The waiting game is giving me so much anxiety!What if he suddenly changes his mind when he talks to Riva? What if she makes him realize that he was just confused? What if it was just lust he was feeling for me? Ugh!I groaned while covering my face with a pillow. I'm alone in my unit again, overthinking! This would be the death of me!I don't know what else to do. I tried my best to keep myself

    VLADIMIRNo. This can't be right.I glanced at Blaze who was looking at me apologetically."I know it's hard to believe, but everything points to her," he said.I harshly wiped my face with my palm. It's unbelievable. I can't imagine how she was able to orchestrate something like this.Well, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. I thought bitterly.I squeezed my eyes shut before looking at the files Blaze had given me when I arrived. I scanned them again, making sure I wasn't seeing things. I gritted my teeth while reading.They were complete with bank transactions, emails, and phone calls. I don't know how he got all of this but it doesn't matter now, does it?Everything was traced back to Riva. Riva!My seemingly innocent wife. Her sweet smile flashed at the back of my mind. How could she do this to me? I never once suspected her. Even now, with everything my men found against her, I still find it hard to believe.How could she do this to me?How? Why? Some of the bank transactio

    YVONNEMy head is reeling. I stood behind the closed door, replaying everything that happened inside my head. To say I was dumbfounded is an understatement.I'm in love with you.I can still hear his husky voice and feel his warm breath fanning against the sensitive skin on my neck. Speechless after he said those words, I didn't even try to look at him, even though I could feel his glances while driving back to my unit.I don't know how to process it. It seemed unrealistic. Did he really say those words? Was I dreaming?I pinched my arm so hard to prove that I am awake. I groaned when pain hit me.Shit. It was real!"Aah!" I screamed so loud that I must have woken up the entire building!Damn it! I jumped into the daybed and pushed my face against a pillow, trying to muffle my screams against it.I'm losing my mind!How can he be in love with me? I can't believe this. He must be playing with me! But why would he lie about it?I rolled to my back and stared at the ceiling as if his fac

    VLADIMIR"I promise I'll make it right."Her whole body became rigid in my arms when I held her. I know this sounds like an empty promise, but I meant it."I..." I took a deep breath. I turned her around to look at her. I wanted to see her face. I wanted her to see how genuine my feelings were."I'm in love with you," I told her while staring deep into her eyes. Her lips parted in shock. I had the strongest urge to ravish those lips, but this wasn't the time for that."Do you understand?" I asked when she didn't even blink.I cupped her face, pressing my forehead against her. I can hear her ragged breaths as if she was on the verge of a panic attack."I love you," I whispered. "But I need to make things right this time. I need to... end things with Riva so we can start on a clean slate."She remained dumbfounded. She was just staring at me as if I'd grown another head."Yvonne," I gently called her name. "Did you hear me?"She only nodded but still didn't say anything. I guess it was

    YVONNE"Leave," even I was surprised at how my voice turned out full of conviction. I stared at the darkness in front of us.We were still in the middle of the road when he suddenly stopped the car.He chuckled humorlessly, probably from my audacity to give him an order like that. But I don't care anymore. I just need to do what I have to protect my heart from further breaking into pieces. Because if not me, nobody will."Stop playing with me," I said."I don't know what kind of game you are playing right now," I told him, my voice dripping with raw emotions. I didn't even try to hide how I really felt.I am confused and devastated. His mere presence is enough to fuck me in the head. Every time I see him around, it gives me a glimpse of hope. I don't want to. God knows I don't want to, but my stupid heart couldn't help but assume.Assume that he was here for me. Assume that he missed me. The more I see him, the more I expect him to talk to me and tell me he wants me back.It was pathe

    VLADIMIR What was I thinking? I thought, staring at her as she obviously checked out everything in the room except me. How could I become so impulsive around her? I shouldn't have dragged her here in the pretense that I wanted to talk. I just wanted to be with her for a little longer and that's the only thing I could come up with when it seemed like she couldn't wait to get away from me. "What do we need to talk about?" she asked impatiently. I badly wanted to pull her closer, to wrap her in my arms and inhale her intoxicating scent to calm my shit down. But I stopped myself. As much as I wanted to confess to her, I wanted to settle everything first. I wanted to do it right this time. I should end things with Riva, before even thinking of taking her back. I owe it to both of them. What should I tell her though? My mind was blank. Fuck it. "What?" she muttered while looking at me with a puzzled expression on her face. It felt like I was saved by the bell when I heard a knock

    YVONNEI chose a semi-formal emerald green dress. I took it from the rack and held it in front of me, imagining how I would look if I wore it."It suits you."I gasped audibly when I heard his voice behind me. I turned to look just to find him standing at the closet's entrance. I gulped when I caught his gaze lingering on my body.My cheeks heated up profusely. I can feel the temperature around us suddenly rising. I couldn't help but glance at the air conditioning unit in the room. It's turned off. It's definitely the reason why it's getting hotter here.I'm sure it had nothing to do with Vladimir leaning languidly against the doorframe, looking so damn... Fine..."Uhm, thanks," I murmured, fighting the urge to bite my lip. "I'll take this for the opening ceremony. I hope you won't mind."He looked around the closet. I noticed his jaw ticked when he must have realized that everything was still there."I don't care," he looked back at me. This time, he stared into my eyes intently. "Yo

    YVONNE The silence that greeted me in the apartment was deafening. I suddenly wished I let Selene come with me again. I sighed as I plopped myself into the daybed. I stared at the ceiling as if it was interesting. I felt so exhausted after another day of pretending I was fine. I'm not. I even think I am on the brink of insanity. I'm barely holding on by a thread so as not to fall on the other side. I don't know what I want anymore. I want him gone when he's around, but my heart screams for him when he's not. Damn it. If that's not insane, then I don't know what else is! "Ugh!" I groaned loudly. I should seriously stop thinking about him! I harshly get out of bed to find something else to do to occupy my mind. I winced when I realized there was no food left. I was quite hungry because I had not eaten anything while in the shelter. I sighed. I had no choice but to go out. I can also drop by the store to buy some stocks. I just gathered my hair up into a messy bun, then grabbed
