Brodie's POV

.

I shook my head. Carmella is a handful of sly, tempting tigress. I know that. I better keep my wall solid in between us. This marriage was planned according to each benefit. She might now know the real reason why we have to get married, but I'm choosing this as an opportunity to resolve everything.

"Oh, the night is cold. I love this! Now I understand why you like to work at night, Brodie." She gestured in a gunshot.

"Okay, let's begin shooting!" Taas na hawak niya sa shotgun.

"Be careful with that, Carmella. That's not a toy that you can just fire around. Make sure that there's no casualty around the area, or you will go to jail," I reminded her.

"Alam ko ano. Huwag kang ano!" Pilyang ngiti niya at napailing ulit ako sa sarili. Nahinto akong saglit at pinagmasdan lang siya.

Yeah, pretty dumb, Brodie. What else do I expect from a family background of her? She's not any Carmella because she's a Del Fiore—a Del Fiore who can do unimaginable things around me.

    Brodie's POV . One hundred lips? What the — kind of a woman is she? Dammit. "As you can see, Brodie, we need to make some amendments in this part, bro. I suggest putting a 10 percent deflation rate on the market. What do you think? It's not bad, right?" I heaved deep enough to get out some bad air, but I felt down still. Hell, is wrong with me? "Hey, Brodie, are you even listening to me? Hello?" "Yes? What did you say again?" "Tsk, sabi ko na nga ba. Hindi ka nakikinig at wala ka na naman sa sarili mo. Kung hindi lang kita kaibigan ay ninakawan ko na ang kompanya mo at wala lang ito sa 'yo." Iling ni Nathaniel. "What's bothering you?" "Is it normal for a woman to kiss one hundred men?" My brows crossed. I'm out of my mind. "You mean your wife kissed one hundred lips? What the heck, bro," he chuckled. "Anong klaseng tanong iyan." He stood up and put the papers away. He put them back in the drawer. "I will do the plan as what you suggest, okay? Here have a drink." Ibinigay ni

    Carmella's POV."Get this right, Carmella. Don't let that sly fox seduce your husband. Remember, Brodie is yours now. It's not like you guys are not married. That was legal, Carmella. My gosh! I will never let this slide. Nicolle De Pruta can go to hell if she'll lay a finger on my man. What's mine is mine and mine alone!"Naningkit ang mga mata ni Butter nang sabihin niya ito. Nahinto ako sa pag-nguya ng apple at pinaikot ko nalang ang mga mata ko.I stood up to peel the skin off. I don't like eating apples like this. I can't swallow the skin. It's too chewy, and it's making me choke.After discovering Nicolle and Brodie's past, I wanted to skin Brodie alive!Sinadya niya yata na pakasalan lang ako dahil kay Nicolle. He knew I'm the last resort. Sly! Pareho silang dalawa ni Axton! Kaya pagsasamahin ko silang dalawa sa hukay."Did you forgot what she did to you when we were young? My God! Kung ako lang sana ang nasunod noon sunog na ang balat ng haliparot na iyon!"Napangiwi ako. Mas

    Brodie's POV.Having Carmella around helped me ease my sleep. Holding her hand next to me, lying in bed, put me to sleep.Hindi ako dating ganito, dahil hindi ako nakakatulog sa gabi. Kailangan ko pang pahirapan ang sarili ko para mapagod ang katawan ko para makatulog. But Carmella changed that routine for me. One touch of her and her smiles is my lullaby.Learning her likes and dislikes, I kept that in mind. I've done my research, and she's easy. The easy type when it comes to heart.Mataray siya, pero malambot naman ang puso pagdating sa iilang bagay. At matigas sa mga desesyon na gusto niya. She can put up a fight. There's no doubt about that. She's a fighter. I know that. But one thing that up until now made me puzzle about her. I don't think she had one hundred exe's. I just can't believe it.Today, after a busy day at the farm, I prepared her favorite dish. The dish that she misses a lot at home. . . Pasta.It's not ordinary pasta because every ingredient and even the sauce was

Brodie shook his head as he looked at the field ahead. He was calm, sipping his alcoholic drink.How the hell did that happen? I was sure Butter told me that that horse would win! Did she perhaps lie to me?What the fudge, again.Tumayo ako at pasimpling dinukot ang cellphone sa loob ng bag. I sweetly looked at Brodie before turning away from him. Malagkit ang titig niya at tila walang pakialam sa mga tao sa paligid namin.If he could devour me here, he could probably done so. My message was loud and clear. I bet myself in exchange for the money. And I'm sure he's looking forward for it. Sa uri ba naman ng titig niya kanina sa akin kanina nang matalo ang kabayo, ay tiyak puwede na niya akong gahasain mamayang gabi."Butter, I lost," I pouted. It doesn't worry me at all."Oh, I see. . .

    Brodie's POV.She blew up the half a million dollars? Huh, damn. . . This is cool anyway. I have the best excuse to have her."So, anong gusto mo?" Matapang ang titig na pinakawalan niya sa akin. Napasandal ako sa dingding at seryoso siyang tinitigan.I'm not drunk, but I'm hot enough to make her mine tonight. We are back at the hotel now. It was early to go. There are still events at the venue, but I lost my appetite. All I want to do is to drag her to bed, kiss her hard, and make her moan in pleasure.Damn this. The alcohol is now playing a little guilt in my system. This is why I hate drinking."Like I've said, I'm cool about this, Carmella.""Okay. That's fine. May pangangailangan ka at ako rin naman 'di ba?"She crossed her arms together, and I swore behind my mind. She's hard to tame. That's for sure, but why do I find her more sexy? Huh, I must be crazy.I nodded and sighed in relief."Okay, but I have my condition, Brodie."Brodie? She's calling me Brodie now instead of mahal

I came panting, staring at her.Ilang segundo ko muna siyang tinitigan na nakapamaywang sa sarili.Damn, I was right. She's a virgin.Then, what's the big deal, Brodie? Carmella is mine. She's my wife.I captured her mouth again in another kiss, pushing her body back to the mattress. There was no noise from her. She's hungry as fuck and still wants to be eaten by me.I kissed and licked her down to her nipple. Suck the other one and massaged the other. She came panting, trying to touch me below. Hinawakan ko ang kamay niya at pinako ito sa ibabaw ng ulo niya."I only have one rule from this, Carmella," I said, panting at her. She nods."You break yours by kissing me, and that's alright, mahal ko. But mine can't be broken by any type of weapon."I pushed my member at her entry, and she gasped, feeling tense, excited, and at the same time so fucking hot."Once I'm inside, there's no turni

I stood up, composing myself for the final time."Are you sure you are not going to regret this? The organization is spying on you, Brodie. Sooner or later, they will find out about this, and you will know what will happen next.""I don't care, Vein. I'm ready for anything. I'm nearly there. Just a few steps away, and this will be over." I turned my back, grabbed my stuff, and got ready to exit the place."And what about Nicolle?"Napaigting ang panga ko at hindi ko nilingon si Vein. Itinaas ko nalang ang kanang kamay ko sa kanya.Bahagyang yumuko agad siya.---"Thank you, mahal. It felt like we were living in the dream." Carmella looped her arms around me, burying her face against my chest."Hmm, ang bango mo talaga? Ano ba ang gamit mong shave? Perfume? Sabon?"I scoffed and hugged her tightly. "Just the hotel

    Brodie's POV . "Are you sure about that? Baka naman pagdating natin ng Italya ay magbabago ka." Naningkit ang mga mata niya sa akin at natawa agad ako. "Carmella, this is not you. When did you lose your confidence, mahal?" I shook my head. "I didn't lose my confidence, mahal. I'm just making sure. So, ano? Deal?" She extended her hand, and I looked at it. "What are you trying to play this time, mahal?" I sighed. She's full of surprises, and sometimes it does my head in. Noong isang araw nakipagpustahan siya sa akin at ang nakataya ang kalahating hectaria ng lupa ko sa kabilang bundok. Alam kong mananalo ako, pero para sa ikakatuwa niya ay kusa akong nagpatalo sa kanya. She got that share now. It's not a problem for me. She can get everything she wants as if she needs it. I know she's got more money than I have in the bank. "I'm betting my heart here, okay? So be responsible." Umikot siya sa likod ko at sa huminto sa harapan ko.

    Anastacia.My heart raced when I saw Zev's face. He's got bruises around the right eye like someone had punched him in the face."Anong nangyari sa 'yo? Who did this to you?"Napaluhod ako at ininspeksyon ang mukha niya. Hindi ko sila nasundo ngayon dahil delivery ngayon ng orders ko galing Amerika. Ako mismo ang kumuha ng mga ito sa pantalan. Kaya pansamantala si George ang kumuha sa mga bata."Tinanong ko rin, Ate. Pero ayaw magsalita. Ganyan na ang mukha eh. Gusto ko sanang kausapin ang guro nila, pero wala raw. Kaya umuwi na kami."Bitbit ni George ang bag ng dalawang bata. Inilapag niya ito sa gilid at saka namaywang sa likod ko."Patingin nga. Dios ko…" Tumayo ako at kumuha ng maligamgam na tubig. Pina upo ko si Zev at tahimik siyang nakayuko. Samantalang si Skye ay nasa gilid lang. Nakasandal sa dingding at pinagmamasdan kami."Ano ba ang nangyari, Skye? Who did this to your brother?"Siya na ngayon ang tinanong ko. Alam kong matigas ang ulo ni Zev at madalas ay hindi siya na

Mas mabuting maagapan ko na ngayon.I need to climb up the roof to check the leak. The rainwater drips in Zev's bedroom. It's not that bad, but it really annoys me every time I hear the drip sound inside his room. It sounds frustrating, and my poor boy can't even complain. It hurts to the bones to see my children struggle along with me.Hindi man nila sinasabi sa akin ito, ay ramdam ko ito bilang isang ina. Naiinis ako at galit ako sa kung ano man ang sitwasyon meron ako ngayon. Wala akong ibang masisisi kung 'di ang sarili mismo."Mama? Aakyat ka?"

How the hell will he bring an investor to this project if he can't deliver his report properly? He can't even justify some of this. I'm not listening to him while I read his report. It's full of nonsense."Next!""B-But, Sir. I'm not yet done.""You're fired. Next!" I blurted out, fixing them with a hawk-like stare. When I locked eyes with them, they all averted their gaze."Damn it! Wala bang maayos na proposal sa inyong lahat? These reports are all boring!

Talaga bang ginawa niya ito dahil ayaw na niya akong makitang muli?Shit.Hindi ko na tuloy alam kung tama pa ba itong ginagawa ko ngayon. Nanginig tuloy ang tuhod ko, at peke akong ngumiti sa babae rito sa front desk. Nasa likod ko naman si Tessie."Yes, Ma'am. How can I help you?" She smiled, but it was obviously a fake smile. She looked at me from head to toe and back again."Uhm, I would like to see Mr. Dennis Ezequil Mondragon?" Kumurap kurap ako. Nilakasan ko na ang loob."Oh?

Nalilito ako, Tessie." Kinagat ko na ang pang-ibabang labi."No, Anastacia. I know what you're thinking. Hindi puwede 'to! Kailangan mong sabihin sa kanya! Sasabihin mo at sasamahan kita!"I paused and inhaled deeply."Paano kung ayaw niya? Paano kung ipagtabuyan niya ako, Tessie?"Takot ako, at hindi ako handa kung sakaling magkikita kami ulit.
