ELLIOT JAMES HART (Wild Men Series #4) Chapter Seven: Unknown Enemy
ElliotWE ARRIVED at Fortis Mondragon Medical Hospital in less than thirty minutes. Jake was still in the business suite, sitting on the couch while reading some international magazine, waiting for us."Boss," Isauis called.I turned to him and was appeased seeing Isauis breathing. Yes, he is fvcking alive and k*cking. His face was wrapped in two layers of gauze to preserve his burnt tissues. Dextrorotatory glucose is administered through a tiny tube to provide him with enough sugar while he is not permitted to eat. Isauis's wearing a hospital gown and is now able to sit."Save it. Don't push yourself too hard. We have a lot of time for that," I said. Yes, I wanted him to start talking, but Jake's stare baffled me even more. "So, any update?" I cross my arms over my chest while staring at Jake, waiting.He stands up from the settee and walks, approaching me while speaking. "When he arrived unconscious, I requested to run a crucial test." He stops in front of me and continues. "Isauis

Elliot We were in the middle of a conversation when Logan came in. He walked in with a female dressed in a doctor's robe. Then came a nurse carrying a tray with medical cleaning wound kit. I assumed they belonged to Isauis. Giving way to the medical staff, I walk and stand beside Jake. "Hey man, how you doing?" bati ni Logan kay Isauis, at nag-fist bump pa ang dalawa. "Buhay na buhay, boss," sagot niya. "Good morning, gentlemen. I'm Dra. Karina Abelson, Mr..." She stops while checking the patient chart. "Mr Isauis Buendelvano's personal dermatologist." She then looks up at us. "I'm sorry, naabala ko yata kayo. But I have to check Mr Buendelvano's face, kailangan na rin kasi namin palitan ang dressings." She smiles after explaining. "No worries, Dra. Abelson. You came at the perfect time," It was Jake. I slowly moved my head to my side where Jake was standing. I darted my eyes at him with a seriously fvcking "You came at the perfect time" look. "What?" he asked. I mouthed at hi

Two years agoHart's MansionElliotA man outside the prodigious gate of the mansion was drenched from the heavy pouring rain, beseeching and yelling. "Pakiusap! Kailangan kong makausap si Attorney Elliot. Mayroon siyang kailangang malaman. Pakisabi sa kaniya narito ako.""Bakit, kilala ka ba niya? Umalis ka na! Kung wala kang appointment kay Attorney ay hindi mo siya puwedeng makausap." One of our men, Ryan, rebuffs him. "Hindi puwede. Kailangan ko sabihin sa kaniya ang mga nalalaman ko. Tungkol ito kay Federico, at alam kong hindi niya ito palalampasin." The man perseveres.I was standing behind the extensive glass wall on the second floor while my arms crossed over my broad chest, watching them. I could hear them yelling at each other, and I was sceptical when I heard Federico Elizalde's name. I turned around and walked down the stairs."Sinabi ng hindi puwede! Aalis ka ba o babarilin kita?!" Ryan desperately and furiously shouts at him."Attorney! Alam kong nandiyan ka, Attorney!

ElliotNabitin sa ere ang baso ko at hindi naituloy ang pag-inom. Nanigas ang aking mga panga at nanlilisik ang mga matang lumingon sa kaniya. Malakas kong ibinato sa pader ang baso kaya nabasag iyon at lumikha ng ingay. Muli akong tumayo, sa marahas at mabilis na kilos ay ikinasa ko ang aking baril at itinutok sa kaniya."Hayup ka! Sinabi ko na sa 'yo, huwag mo akong gaguhin. Do you even think I would believe your stupid lies? Federico is one of my trusted accomplices, kung gusto niya akong patayin nang dahil lamang sa pagpili sa akin ng tatay ko, sana noon pa. Tangina ka! Gusto mo bang unahin na kita hayup ka?!""Attorney, totoo ang sinasabi ko. At...at sila mismo ng mga kasamahan ninyo sa kumpanya ang nag-uusap tungkol dito kasama si Sir Cameron. Narinig ko ang lahat habang nasa opisina sila ni Mr. Elizalde." Paliwanag niya habang nakataas ang dalawang kamay na halos nakaharang na sa kaniyang mukha."What?! Ano ang pruweba mo sa akusasyon mong ito? Alam mo ba ang puwedeng mangyari

Elliot Two years ago Batangas WITH TOUSLED HAIR, a ruffled sleeve, and the upper half of my royal blue long sleeve unbuttoned, I was standing on the verge of the top of our land, watching the flickering lights of the city of Batangas. A few strands of my chest hair were freely experiencing the frigid wind. My hands were both inside my pockets. My black leather shoes were cake in thick sludge. My family owns this land, slated to develop as a private subdivision for politicians and well-known families in the city. I chose this place tonight for my guests to remember how we intended to improve the property. But everything changed in just one snap. When Hubert turned himself to uncover the Elizalde's, I ordered Sabino to track down those fucking cowards who agreed with Federico to bump me off. I was blaming myself for giving them my credence that I didn't notice their sleight of hand against me. "You stupid. Dumb. Asshole lawyer," I murmured to myself. My lips were shaking from the a

Elizalde's Mansion Elliot NAKARATING kami sa mansyon ng mga Elizalde pasado alas nuwebe na nang gabi mula sa Batangas. Sinalubong kami ng ilan nilang tauhan at mga katulong para igiya papunta s malawak nilang dining area. Gusto kong matawa, dahil wala ni isa sa kanila ang nakakaalam kung sino ang mga bisitang kasama ko. Isa itong surpresa para kay Federico. Hinanap ng mga mata ko ang aking ama at kapatid na si Ezekiel, wala pa ang mga ito. Abala ang ilang kasamahan namin sa negosyo habang nag-uusap ng lapitan ako ni Cameron at abutan ng alak. Nang tanggapin ko iyon ay tinapik niya ako sa balikat. "Ginabi ka yata, trabaho?" Sumimsim ako ng alak at tumango. "Mayroon din akong mga kinausap, sinubukan ko silang paaminin pero mas pinili nilang manahimik. Nakakapagod," seryoso, ngunit may laman kong sagot sa kaniya. Nilingon niya akong awang ang mga labi na parang nakakita ng multo ang gago. Nakipagtitigan ako ng ilang segundo bago siya nakabawi at nagtanong. "Anong ibig mong sabihin?"

Malori"Ma'am, okay na po ang kotse n'yo. Pero kailangan na po palitan ng bago ang baterya. Kung gusto n'yo po ay dalhin n'yo sa shop para kami na po ang magpapalit." Paliwanag ng mekaniko sa akin.Huminga ako ng malalim. "Pero kaya pa naman 'yan hanggang weekend 'di ba?""Kaya naman po,ma'am. Basta dalhin n'yo lang po kaagad para hindi na maulit na tumirik sa gitna ng daan.""Sige po, salamat. Magkano po pala babayaran ko?""Okay na po ma'am. Na-settle na po ni Attorney." Sagot ng isang lalaking kasama.Why do I have these rare feelings the moment I hear his name? Naalala ko tuloy 'yong nangyari noon sa lobby ng building nila. What I felt that time is the same feeling I felt earlier. Mahina kong natampal ang aking noo ng bumalik sa alaala ko ang tagpong iyon. Nakakahiya!"Sige po ma'am, aalis na rin po kami."Tumango na lamang ako dahil wala na naman akong sasabihin o itatanong. Pupuntahan ko na lang siguro siya sa opisina n'ya para magpasalamat. Awkward naman kung tatawag lang ako.

MaloriTumawa na rin ako at mahina kong hinampas ang braso n'ya. "Ano ka ba, Shan! Wala 'no!""Oh my God, Malori Vida! Ilan taon ka na ba? Baka ma-expired na 'yan!" Sabay kaming napatawa ng malakas. Sigurado akong rinig ni Karla sa labas ang ingay namin."Well, honestly, a college friend of mine from UST has attempted to court me. I refused, but he's very determined. So, we're just in a GTKEO stage." I chortle."GT- what?!""Geez! Where have you been Shan? I mean, we're in the getting to know each other stage.""Mind you. Very millennial gal. What's his name huh?" Tanong niya habang naniningkit ang mga mata."Evan. Evan Angelo Ricafort.""Really? One of the Unicef ambassadors?!""Uum, yes.""Say yes! Ricafort 'yan ano! Huwag mo ng pakawalan, ano ka ba?"Sobra akong natawa sa sinabi ng kaibigan ko. Para bang mas excited pa s'ya kaysa sa akin sa kalalabasan ng sitwasyon namin ni Evan. But she's right for the second time today. Evan has everything, kaya nga nag-aalangan ako na magpaligaw

ELLIOT JAMES HART (Wild Men Series #4) Chapter Seventeen: 1.1 The Confrontation
Malori“Evan!” Gulat kong bati sa kan’ya.Muli kong nilingon ang kinaroroonan ng mga bisita ng mall, pero wala na ang mga ito roon. Bahagya ko pang sinilip ang tagiliran ng shop, wala talaga.Napalingon na rin tuloy si Evan. “May hinahanap ka ba?”“Huh?”“Sino ba hinahanap mo?” muli niyang tanong.“Ah, wala. Akala ko kasi kakilala ko ‘yong nakita ko sa labas kanina, but… never mind,” pagsisinungaling ko. Kung sasabihin ko man ang totoo, siguradong magtatanong pa siya kaya iniba ko na lang ang usapan. “Ikaw, ano’ng ginagawa mo rito? Akala ko nasa Africa ka?”“Just arrived yesterday. Hindi na kita natawagan kasi, I’m about to surprise you tonight. Kaso, ito nakita kita rito.” Sabay ngiti niya.Guwapo si Evan, mabait at may respeto sa mga babae. Pero minsan pakiramdam ko may iba sa kan’ya. Don’t get me wrong, normal naman siyang tao. Pero sa tuwing magkikita kami o pupunta siya ng studio ay mas lamang pa ang pakiramdam ko na binabantayan niya ako kesa nililigawan.“Malori?” si Ate Misty.
ELLIOT JAMES HART (Wild Men Series #4) Chapter Sixteen: Him, Again
Malori Ano nga ba ang dahilan kung bakit ayaw nating subukang gawin ang isang bagay? Takot? Pagkabigo? O ayaw nating makasakit o masaktan? Para sa akin, lahat. Simula nang magkrus muli ang landas namin ni Atty. Hart sa sarili nilang kumpanya ay hindi na siya nawala sa isip ko. Kaya siguro umabot pa sa puntong napanaginipan ko siya ng husto. Hindi lang basta panaginip, dahil pakiramdam ko, lahat iyon ay totoo. Gusto ko siyang lapitan. Bakit? Hindi ko rin alam. Ilang beses ko siyang pinanood mula sa malayo. Ang mga paa ko na parang may sariling utak ay nagtatalo kung lalakad ba ako palapit o palayo sa kan’ya. Sa huli, nanaig ang takot kong ipagtabuyan ng isang katulad n’ya. Dahil pakiramdam ko, hindi ako ang babaeng gusto n’ya. Sino ba naman ako para paglaanan ng oras? Wala! Isang linggo na ang lumipas simula ng tumuntong siya rito sa studio. Pero sa halip na ikatuwa ko iyon, nabigo lang ako sa nalaman ko. Tama lang pala ang naging desisyon ko, ang lumayo. Akala ko, dahil sa katoto

Elliot Trace was sitting, almost slanting, while his head rested on the backrest of the chesterfield, boringly staring at the ceiling, doing the hits with his dopes. Hindi pa rin ubos ang tinitira ng gago, kaya kung ano-ano na naman ang pumapasok sa utak niya. “Billiard,” he said. Fuck! Trace will not stop and let it rest. He insisted that what he heard was precise. “Pollard.” Mabilis na umayos nang upo si Trace dahil sa sinabi ni Jeru. “Anong pollard?” kunot-noong tanong niya. “Wala lang. It still ends with ‘lard’ word. So, that’s my guess.” Kibit-balikat namang sagot niya. He throws a pillow at Jeru after the fucking piece of ass celebrity brother of ours spills his snafu idea. “Gago! Wala ka naman doon kagabi. Sabog ka ba? Billiard ‘yon. Niyayaya ni Amanda mag-billiard si Eut. Puta! Umayos ka nga!” “Ako pa ang sabog?” Natatawang balik-tanong ni Jeru bago sumimsim ng alak. “Baka naman lizard. May nakitang lizard si Amanda bago mamatay.” It was Daxon. I grimly squeezed my n

Elliot Hindi ko iyon pinansin. Dahil sa galit ko sa kaniya, mas nangibabaw sa akin ang organisasyon, ang samahan. “Curse Foedus again and you’ll meet hell in no time!” Trojan pats me on my shoulder to calmly ease the tension. I don't give a damn if Amanda was telling the truth, but there is one noteworthy thing I need to know; the evidence of her fearless revelation and the reason why she ran away from me. “Where is he?” I ask. Mula sa pagkakayuko ay mabilis na itinaas ni Amanda ang kaniyang ulo at nanlalaki ang mga matang nakatingin sa akin. Her eyes welled up with disbelief and fear because Amanda knew who I was referring to. “Elliot please, not him, please!” “Don't make me ask again, for the sake of fucking hell!” “I'm sorry, I… I can't tell, and he's too young to see you like this, please! Huwag mo sa kan’ya ibunton ang galit mo sa akin. Please! Nakikiusap ako, Elliot!” Nilingon ko sina Keith at Trojan, Nakikita ko sa kanilang mga mata ang pagtataka sa pinag-uusapan namin ni
ELLIOT JAMES HART (Wild Men Series #4) Chapter Fourteen: 1.1 Confession
Elliot Keith and I arrived at the location at precisely six in the evening. Founders are currently here, except for Lev and Trace. Keith informed me earlier that they were on the island and having a meeting with one of our associates. Trace assured Keith that they would be here at seven in the evening. I set foot first in the staff house, where Trojan brought my ex-girlfriend, Amanda. I decided to interrogate her before torturing the two men she was with the night of the explosion, whose hands were chained up. Amanda is firmly seated, arms and legs tied on the chair, eyes covered with a white handkerchief. I am viciously looking at her, and the day she betrayed and cheated on me flashed back, and the truth that she conspires with her family to kill me. “Elli,” Amanda called. “Elli, I know it's you.” She swallowed, and I could see how her neck waved from it. I was at a vexed point the moment she called me in an alias that my only beloved sister Eona called me. I motion to Trojan to

ElliotRelentlessly, I whammed the table with my own hands. "At sinong gusto mong sisihin ko, ang mga pulis na hanggang ngayon ay wala pa ring nagagawa, o ang pamilya natin na sa daming koneksyon ligal man o iligal ay hindi mahanap ang hayup na pumatay kay Eona?!""EJ- ""Ako! Ako lang ang dapat sisihin!""No one is blaming you!""It should have been me. That fucking psycho wanted me, not Eona. And you have no idea how hard this is for me every time I open my eyes and think I'm still breathing. How do I spend my fucking day finding the reasons why?! You have no fucking idea, Elandra!""I do!""Then why the hell warding off Amanda against me?!""I am not protecting her, but you!"My sister's face softens as she tries to shed light on what is in her mind. But for me, it is another way of torment."When Eona died, I saw how traumatised you were and how the awful incident had affected you. I was there. In fits and starts, everyone notices that you're building walls that could separate you

It was Sabino on the other line.Facing the glass wall of my office, I turned around and strode back to my chair and resume to read the files my asset had sent me. Still holding my phone, I scroll my contact list and dial Axel's number."Boss?""Fucking impressive, Axel! You did your job well. I'll call you for your next move and make sure no one knows you're working for me.""Yes, boss. I have several photos here from yesterday's event. I will send it to your email now."I didn't get the chance to respond to Axel because someone opened the door and barged inside with my secretary behind her, nervous.
