His Contracted Bedspacer (The Heir 1) The Fall of Jones Family
Rafaella took a moment to study the final letter her father had written to her before he died. She inhaled deeply, opened the letter with shaky hands, and allowed the air back into her constricted chest before concentrating on her father's carefully written what she believed to be his last will. She opened it and began reading. To Rafaella, my cherished daughter: My life has been up to this point because I decided to leave rather than witness how my failure would affect everyone else's future. My dear daughter, I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me for what I have done as your father. What I did was for the good of all of you, even if it's hard what fate I selected. I'm done, my daughter. Please don't see it as my failure but rather as a chance for me to be free while freeing everyone else from my wrongdoings. And finally, I want to let you know that I've given our family friend Alexus charge of you. Although it's challenging to express, you will eventually comprehend

Rafaella gasped as she turned to face the brave owner of the hand that had gripped hers, and in amazement, she let go of the umbrella she was clutching. Her eyes widened due to what she unintentionally ran into in those seconds. She said just one syllable, "A-Alexus. What are you doing here?" "Stopping you from your erratic action. Let's go," he said after he gave her a stern look as he stared back before turning around. He hurriedly moved out of the villa's front gate with her and placed his hand around her waist. When they were in the man's automobile, Alexus asked her angrily, "How can you be so impulsive as going to his house?" She took a deep breath, her voice dried from the shock before and raised her hand to tell the man to stop talking. She received a bottle of mineral water from Alexus in silence. After that, he removed his black coat. Rafaella took the bottle and hurriedly drank, staring at the man's dark figure. She eventually experienced calmness. She was startled wh

Rafaella didn't talk to him until they reached the Jones' residence. And Alexus deliberately parked his car in front of the gate of Rafaella's house."Don't go out," Rafaella stopped him as she left the vehicle. "There's no need for you to leave your car...""I know," he replied with a blank façade. "But I need to talk to your Mom..."Rafaella gasped as she felt alarmed by the man's statement. She looked at his face and shook her head."Alex, we're friends, aren't we?" She tried to be amiable. "Let's not make an issue of what I did today."Alexus just grinned."Please. Don't tell my Mom what I did today. You know my mother has a blood pressure issue."Alexus raised an eyebrow at what he heard. "You should have considered that before you planned to rush into Lombardi's home. You did the wrong action, Rafa."The corner of her lips twitched."Promise me that your audacity will never happen again, Rafaella." Once again, he reminded her.She felt disgusted with the man. "If you speak, you

Rafaella secretly cried in her room at what Alexus's girlfriend told her. She was hurt as she considered Alexus her best friend and closest to her heart. It was painful for her to accept what she found out. It was like crushing her feelings while furiously in rage like an erupting volcano for the man who misunderstood her being sweet to him. Flirting? Shame on you for thinking the worst, Alessandro Latimer! From now on, I don't want to see you ever again, nor do I want to talk to you. The hate-filled her mind. I was not wrong in my hunch that you suddenly changed after my Dad's passing away. But why now? How could you do this to me? I didn't expect that your friendship was only superficial. And all your good treatment towards me suddenly disappeared. But why? Was it all because you needed my father, and now that he was no longer around, you will disappear, too? Just like that? His opinion of her was just too much and quite embarrassing. And in her heart lived a great hatred for the

He responded, "No, Rafa," in a sober, chilly tone. "You should know I won't do that. Your tears would be the last thing I wanted to see from you." Rafaella gasped when she heard that lovely voice and covered her mouth with her hands. She suddenly became conscious of his speech pattern. His voice seemed to be emanating from his chest. Jeez! What the hell am I thinking? It's not like I've never heard his voice on the phone before. This is probably the result of intense thinking and dieting. She thought, cursing herself. What rubbish gets into my head? When she managed to respond, she scoffed, "Hmm... why does that sound new to me?" You enjoy watching me weep previously. He laughed and answered, "Well. If I recall well, that was before I joined the military. Have I ever brought you to tears since I returned four years ago?" Rafaella's eyes swiveled about. "I saw you were crying two weeks ago, but it wasn't my doing," he continued talking. "And I'm sorry what happened." She knew th

Rafaella inhaled profoundly and forced herself to hold back the tears that threatened to fall down her cheeks.She combed her younger sister's long wavy hair with her fingers as Cindy lay down and pillowed her thighs."Rafa...""Hmm...?""What if we ever part ways?" Cindy asked her with a frown."Oh, what the heck are you talking about?"She emphasized, "Just pretend...If that day comes, be strong and assist Mommy to be strong as I'll be as strong as I can. And try not to be sad, Rafa. I know deep inside you is a strong woman. And I rely on your instinct.""Of course," she said. That's what we ought to do.:Cindy regarded her and asked, "You promise that?""Yes, I guarantee that nobody will be able to bring the two of us down. But why are you talking this way?" Are you planning to leave us?""No. But just in case things happen, that's unavoidable. Be ready for the outcome just in case….""Hmm. I wouldn't say I like talking about parting. That's the sad part….""Yeah, you're right, but

"Why don't you come here and bring the pizza?" She offered, laughing. "I have many things to bring, so I need your help. So, it should be you to come here instead." Rafaella remarked, "Never mind the pizza. I'll try to console you right here. Watch for me. I'm going to the window." "You're crazy, woman," he said with laughter. "Console me, huh, but through the window as If I need one. Have mercy…" She tried to suppress her laughter so her sister's sleep would not be disturbed. "No, I can't. Through the window…." She insisted with that puckered mouth. Alexus stopped her, "No, hold on. Not the window; I have a better idea. Why don't you come over here? My idea is better than yours." "No. It's almost nine o'clock, and I'm too sluggish to leave." She realized she was making a lame excuse because they used to hang out even when it was late at night—sometimes, driving into town for something to eat. "I'm tired, too, with valid reason. I've done several things in the office, which mad

The shock in Alexus' eyes was also reflected in the contact of their lips. But when he heard the approaching footsteps of the familiar sound of shoes, he ultimately kissed Rafaella's lips. He felt the shock of the girl's reaction to his audacity. Alexus slowly lifted his face, and Rafaella's eyes widened as he could see the fear in her gaze. "Just nod whatever I have to say to her," he whispered as their lips parted. He didn't wait for Rafaella to answer. "Oh, Sandy! What are you doing here?" Alexus answered casually. His hand slipped on Rafaella's waist. He almost burst out laughing because he could feel the stiffening of Rafaella's body from what he had done. "H-how could you do this to me, kissing her!" "Why not, Sandy? What is it with you if I kiss her? She's my girlfriend already. Haven't you broken up with me so you can flirt with whoever you want? And Rafaella is my new girlfriend..." "You can't do this to me, Alex! I said we need breathing space." "Not for me, Sandy. I'm

His Contracted Bedspacer (The Heir 1) Fixing Their Forever
When they reached their bedroom, he grabbed her arm roughly, yanking her out behind him. And the moment the bedroom door shut behind them, he pushed her back against it. Her clutch bag hit the floor. His mouth covered hers, missing her taste. They were gentle at first, slowly stripping each other out of their clothes as they got to know each other's bodies again. It wasn't as if it had been ages since they had one another, but it had been long enough. Two weeks were long enough for him. Damn, he'd missed his sunshine. "God, it's been a long time..." he rasped. " As she pressed her body into his. He deepened the kiss, tasting her lips, then parting them with his own. His tongue drove between her lips. She moaned as their tongues mingled, then lifted her hand and ran her fingers through his hair. He moved one hand between her legs, and his touch immobilized her as he slid his fingers back and forth along the smooth seam of her center and circled them gently over her clit. S
His Contracted Bedspacer (The Heir 1) Lured
Alexus couldn't sleep that night when Rafaella confessed her intention to join the syndicate as a victim. And he worked with Gerald to ensure his wife's safety. Gerald agreed since his team would also be there to get the syndicate's mastermind. While contemplating the critical mission Rafaella wished to do as an auction bride victim. Alexus could not help but sigh frequently. He found it hard to imagine his wife performing such an undercover role. It worsens the pain in his stomach more than the medication she gave him. But there he was, in front of her, smelling of flowers and wanting to reach out and touch her tender flesh. With their twins playing in the kitchen and the three agents keeping an eye on them, he was close enough to kiss her but didn't dare. Not until they had a chance to converse. She pulled a few soft drinks out of the fridge and handed one to him before following him into the living room she'd decorated with a few colorful accents from Milan before she had a
His Contracted Bedspacer (The Heir 1) A Treasured Moment
Rafaella was ecstatic as she watched her mother with tears in her eyes and a smile on her face as she hugged her only sibling, Cindy. Despite having concerns about what would come next in their lives now that the authorities had apprehended Colleen, Jasper, and their gang, she felt blessed despite these misgivings. It was a joyful moment since Rafaella's only sister had returned. She felt so much happiness in those moments. And even her mother could not hide the happiness and security of her will to see her two daughters together again. She quietly studied the profile of Cindy sharing her mother's happiness and tears while Gerald extended his hand to hold her mother's hand and kissed it. What a sweet man, she thought with a smile, but it vanished from her lips as she met her husband's facade, somewhat scowling. She strolled to join him, seated in one of the chairs with Ruslan and Leo nearby. "What is ailing you?" She asked in a whisper. "Nothing," his evasive reply and avoidi
His Contracted Bedspacer (The Heir 1) Get-Together
Three days have passed since Rafaella was saved from the hands of Colleen, who kidnapped her as a ransom for Alexus to sign their divorce papers, but Alexus disagreed. Instead, he saved Rafaella from the hands of Jasper, who wanted to take advantage of her physically. They found out that Colleen was still in the clinic because she was high on substances when she was arrested, along with Jasper and some staff who hid in an abandoned farm that used to belong to one of her friends. And according to the investigation at the said location, the FBI group led by Gerald obtained two boxes of substance and some informative documents they did not divulge publicly. Alexus's stomach ache had also healed due to taking diet pills which Rafaella used as an accessory not to have intimacy with his ex-girlfriend, which he claimed was adequate but not good for his health as he felt deteriorating and weakling. So, the incident became a joke among the group. Rafaella felt even happier because t
His Contracted Bedspacer (The Heir 1) The Rescue
Rafaella leaned her head against his shoulder and asked, "Can we just go to the woods?" He echoed in her ear, "I told you we couldn't. The woods are the worst area to flee to because doing so would be a suicide mission, and I also want her off my back. And that is to see her off to prison." Rafaella frowned at his remark, but she didn't need convincing—literally or figuratively—because she sensed she was about to enter a minefield. The area was eerie. She wanted to get back to her children to ensure no one was there to snap them away. That's why she was impatient in being in this place when she wanted to be home. She was never like this with her covert mission, but she had no idea this was how people with kidnapped family members felt in restless turmoil. Suppose there was compensation for being in this abandoned area, that was to be with Alexus. Having him beside her could make her forget her restlessness for at least a while. "Do you have a plan while we're hiding here?"
His Contracted Bedspacer (The Heir 1) The Shield
With a look of fear and determination, Rafaella struggled to untie her hands. Despite her fear, she hurriedly untied the duct tape holding both hands together when Colleen screamed and threatened her husband. She's just an unbelievable freak," she shook her head and thought. How could she get Alexus's feelings if she kept threatening him? She knew it would not work with Alexus. Was she that desperate to get his attention or something else? She figured out before that she might be desperate for lack of cash. And he thought Alexus was his only hope to help him. Rafaella got off the bed and sat on the floor. She looked around the room, wondering how she could get out of the room she was in. As fear registered in her brain, she tried to figure out how many of Colleen's men were so that she could estimate and know where they were located in that farmhouse. She remembered earlier that he didn't see anyone standing outside the house when they arrived, so she guessed that Colleen's men w

Rafaella awoke to heart-pounding panic. She finally managed to blink her eyes open as her senses slowly woke up. She realized she was in the back seat of the SUV. Suddenly, her forehead collided with the back of the driver's seat."Damn, that was close. Stupid animal crossing the road" said the man's stern voice in front of the steering wheel.She twisted wildly on her right side when she became aware of heavy breathing and found herself beside a man bent over as if he was sleeping inside the SUV.Instinctively, she grabbed for the door handle."Nice, try, but you shouldn't," snarled the voice beside her and grabbed her hair.She swallowed hard as she looked at him. Even in the dark of the backseat, she couldn't even see his eyes ultimately, but she knew. She'd seen the murder in his eyes earlier. When the time came for her to die, she knew he would kill her himself and relish the process. He would have killed her by now if it had been up to him. It wasn't up to him, though.Rafaella
His Contracted Bedspacer (The Heir 1) Cornered
Oh, I can't breathe. That thought quickly crossed her mind when Rafaella woke up. Her eyes widened as she struggled to get enough air into her lungs. Something covered her mouth and nose. And her heart beat faster as she glanced around the unfamiliar small room with a foul smell. She could hardly move as her hands were tied up behind her. She closed her eyes again and thought about what had happened last and how she ended up in a dark, unfamiliar place. The last thing she remembers was someone hitting her on the head when she came out of the comfort room of the cottage that belonged to Gwen. She rested her head against the bed's headboard and closed her eyes again as many images played through her mind. She remembered Alexus and their children. Oh, what's going on? Her thoughts were jumbled. I shouldn't freak out. She told herself that she needed to think clearly. as she leaned back, starting to remember what had happened. She remembered having amnesia, but now she could re
His Contracted Bedspacer (The Heir 1) Shadow of Her Nemesis
Rafaella stared at the laptop on her desk for the hundredth time facing the window. She had been checking Colleen's latest media update but found nothing, and she considered the fugitive woman not using her real identity. But she found out that someone was also digging into her records since many articles popped up that were not there two months ago. The publications claimed that Colleen had been institutionalized at a for-profit facility. Later reports mentioned her disappearance from the public eye. She wanted a calm life without being involved in the commercial matters of her family. What the hell kind of person lives like that? Rafaella asked. She looked at the Grant Pharmaceutical company's finances while still in shock. It combined with another profitable medical business while experiencing a decline in profits. Rafaella shook her head as she processed the new information. Given the business's financial stability, making money would have been tough when she last remembered
