I SLOWLY opened my eyes and the bright surroundings revealed me. I winced when I felt a pain in the middle of my thigh. I frowned. I was immediately worried when I felt the firm arm that was supporting me and the man hugging me.I blinked repeatedly. I swallowed saliva as I was attacked by nervousness. No! Suddenly everything came back to what happened last night. My strange feelings, the heat, and desire. My eyes widened and my mouth fell open, as I kept thinking back to Zandy's passionate kiss with me and the whole thing that happened to us last night.No! This cannot happen. I turned to the one hugging me and saw Zandy sleeping soundly while hugging me. His big body is also exposed. He moved a little more and moaned."What did you do, Miles?" I asked in my mind. I just realized what happened. I gave myself to Zandy without hesitation. I can't believe what I did. I bit my lower lip.I slowly removed Zandy's hand that was hugging me but he hugged me even tighter and moaned slightly.
SEVERAL hours of trip before we finally reached home. I can feel the tiredness and pain of my body sitting in the car. I couldn't even take a nap because of my chaotic mind because of what happened to Zandy and me. I don't know how to deal with him and talk to him after what happened to us last night.I'm ashamedThe car stopped inside the garage of the house. I didn't let Zandy open the car for me so I got off first. I took my backpack from the passenger seat but I was about to get my suitcase when Zandy preceded me."I'll handle this, Miles," he said casually behind me. Our bodies pressed together which gave me a strange feeling. I have also smelled his fragrant smell that is delicious to the nose.I just didn't say anything. I just looked at him for a moment, then walked towards the main door. I took out my key and opened it. I went straight into the living room, dropped my backpack, and sat down on the sofa. I leaned there and closed my eyes. A few moments later, I felt Zandy come
I was not surprised when I went to work the next morning, just as I expected, I was bombarded with questions and intrigue from Melissa and Andrea. I wanted to cover both my ears to not hear their question about what happened to Zandy and me during the vacation."What's up, Miles? Did something happen to you—I mean, what happened on your vacation?" Melissa asked excitedly."Yes, Miles is there at least a little bit," Andrea seconded.I just sat in my seat but I couldn't count their questions. Good thing it's still early and it's not work time yet. I frowned and closed my eyes tightly. "Wait!" I said at the same time raising my two open palms, signaling to stop them both. "How can I answer? You two are asking questions one after the other. Can we just go one by one?" I seriously restrained them.The two were stunned. They moved slightly away from me and folded their arms."Then, what happened?" asked Melissa with a serious face but the excitement on her face was still undeniable."We we
Zandy's POVI did not say a word when mom said she was going to invite Miles over for dinner. We're not okay and we'll always argue if they always bring us together but because they want that, there's nothing I can do.Mom prepared food and said she was going to pick Miles up from where she worked while I wasn't showing interest.A few moments later, mom came with Miles who was looking around and I could see the amazement in her eyes at what she was seeing. I didn't say a word to welcome her and I just looked at her for a moment while mom's face showed joy."Finally you're here, Miles welcome to our home," dad greeted Miles warmly. "I'm glad you're here."Miles smiled. "Thank you, Uncle, for inviting me here."Mom guided Miles to the seat next to me. I didn't say a word and left her there. I can feel her loss."Zandy, won't you at least say hello to your wife? She's here," mom said to me. I wanted to grin at the husband she mentioned.I looked up. "Why should I, mom I'm sure she was j
Until now, I still can't get out of my mind what Beverly said earlier in Sir Troy's office. I know she was referring to Zandy that she will return to. Some fear and jealousy settled in my heart. I'm afraid that when Zandy sees her, he'll forget about me. I can't help but compare myself to her. She's more beautiful and elegant than me. I don't even have anything against her looks.Beverly's return and why she chose me as a journalist to work with, when she knows I'm married to Zandy, has been troubling my mind. What does he want to happen? Is she planning anything and what is her real motive for returning aside from her career in the Philippines?"It's a miracle that you came out to eat with us," Andrea said when Melissa said she was going to eat out with us. Because she doesn't come with us when we eat.These two were still teasing me about what Sir Troy told me earlier but I chose not to tell them because I knew they would also be surprised.Andrea frowned. "I want to go with you two
"You know, Melissa, if you have feelings for someone, don't hide it. You too might be taken away," Andrea continued, teasing Melissa that perhaps Andrea was referring to Melissa's alleged feelings for Chad. Melissa's face couldn't be painted and her cheeks were red from embarrassment while Chad was silent.We are currently walking out of the building. It's past nine o'clock in the evening because we have just finished the articles that are close to the deadline.I smiled but then, I thought about what Melissa said that seemed to hit me too even though that was not her intention."Andrea, stop me! I'm going to charge you for what you ate earlier. He said I don't like Chad, ok? W-we're just friends, that's it," Melissa returned to Andrea with an obviously embarrassed face."Ouch! That hurts Melissa, you didn't even wait for me to leave before you said you didn't love me," Chad snapped. He closed his eyes and felt his chest as if it was painful. But it cannot be hidden from me that Chad
Zandy's POVI still can't avoid arguing with my parents about what they want me to do and what I want to do for myself. They are forcing me to work in a company where I know I am not meant for it. But because I'm an only child, I know I will come to a point where I have to enter the company but this time, I want to do what I want for myself first before I spend myself in the company and that's what they don't understand.But because of dad's decision, I can't do anything anymore. When the five months he gave me are up, I have to enter the company and put aside the restaurant first.The other day, mom and I argued again when she came to our house with Miles. I couldn't avoid not answering to defend my dream for myself which for them is meaningless but to me, it is very important because that makes me happy.I sighed while sitting on the sofa and holding my cellphone while playing with it. I don't know if I can build the restaurant in five months. Even with everything planned out, it's
I wasn't surprised when I woke up with a smile on my face. How light I feel and the surroundings. I stretched with a sweet smile on my lips, then excitedly hugged the pillow and rolled on the soft bed. Even in my dreams, the memory of Zandy never left me.I still can't get over what Zandy did and said to me last night to make Roven look like he already owns me. That keeps coming back to my mind and every time I think about it, I can't help but smile and thrill. Will I still doubt him when Zandy has proven that he deserves to be believed and trusted? But until now, I also think about Roven's situation but I know it is the best for both of us.I stared at the ceiling for a few more minutes. I was going crazy that even on the ceiling I could see Zandy's handsome face looking at me and smiling. My lips just smiled with excitement.There is no doubt that I feel for Zandy. I know I love him and I admit that to myself. I am ready to face the consequences.A few more moments, I blinked. I got
