LARA VIA

I know Cole Aiden will refuse to keep this a secret, but I also know that he understands my reasons. Knowing that he has nothing to do with it, for now, keeping this secret is crucial to our relationship.

I don't want to shock my parents and grandmother, especially Cole Aiden. I don't want them to resent him. As much as possible, I want to clear his name because he hasn't done anything wrong. Yes, he pushed me, and he broke my young heart, but he did it for my own good, and it was worth it. I wouldn't be here pursuing my dream to become an architect if it weren't for him and his sacrifice.

I heard the doorbell ring, and I couldn't help but smile; it must be Aiden! I couldn't wipe the smile off my face as I made my way to the door. Oh god, I can't wait to feel his warm embrace; I miss him already. I couldn't help but giggle at the thought; why do I feel so flirtatious and clingy? Oh god, Lara Via, don't act like you miss him so much! He'll tease me for sure, knowing Cole Aiden

    LARA VIA"WELCOME TO PARADISE MISS SMITH!" I didn't know how to react at first as I gazed at the breathtaking scenery unfolding before me. As soon as I stepped out of the car, I was greeted by the cool breeze. The place was surrounded by mango trees, coconut trees, and various other foliage. The cool breeze was accompanied by the gentle crashing of waves nearby. It felt so inviting, like I wanted to take off my shoes and run towards the crystal-clear sea. I wanted to dive in and swim.The water was so clear, it was tempting to take a dip. I felt like I wouldn't get tired of walking barefoot and feeling the cool water and fine sand beneath my feet. Add to that the lush greenery of the trees and plants—it was truly refreshing to behold. I can't believe that a place like this actually exists."Wow," there were so many things I wanted to say about this place, but I found myself speechless and amazed. I felt excited to explore this literal paradise! I've been to islands in different countr

    LARA VIA"This is one of my favorite places here," I couldn't believe it. I can't believe that this place really exists. I could only ever see this kind of scenery in paintings, and now I'm here. How lucky am I to see this? I still can't believe that they, my friends, put this much effort into it. They are really secretive people. Even my brothers didn't invite me. I can't believe they have such a paradise property here in a secluded area."It's beautiful here," I closed my eyes slightly and savored the cool breeze, feeling my hair dancing in the air. I opened my eyes when I heard Cole Aiden say something."Yeah, it's beautiful," he said that, but I saw him looking at me out of the corner of my eye. Our timing was perfect as the sky turned orange with the setting sun, even the horse seemed to be enjoying the sight as it neighed."So relaxing," I spread my arms wide, welcoming the cool breeze that untied my hair, causing it to billow in the air. I let the sun's warmth touch my face, fe

    LARA VIAThe moon was so bright and there were countless stars filling the sky, enough to illuminate the darkness around us. The heat radiating from our bodies contrasted with the cold water, the warmth prevailing over our skin. He held me from behind, his hand resting on my flat stomach. His lips brushed against the skin of my neck as I tilted my head to the left, granting him easier access. He planted kisses along my neck, trailing down to my shoulder.It tickled, and I gripped onto his hand that lay on my stomach. He was giving me so much pleasure, it was hard to resist. I couldn't hold back whenever our skin touched."Hmm, Aiden," I murmured, pressing my hand against his that was caressing my flat stomach. He lightly nibbled on my neck and shoulder, causing a shiver to run down my spine. I couldn't feel the chill of the water; it felt like I was engulfed in flames because of the heat I was experiencing. I opened my eyes to find him still focused on kissing my neck and shoulder, lo

    LARA VIA"I'll sing for you, you can sing along with me," I interpreted this as a signal that I was agreeing to what she wanted. As she began to strum the guitar, she closed her eyes. Her fingers were long enough to reach every string of the guitar with ease. I watched her play until she began to sing the lyrics of the song.He's really a good singer. His voice is beautiful and soothing; I could never tire of listening to it. It's been years since I allowed my heart to make decisions, and now I'll let it decide. I will choose my happiness, and it's with him. He's the only man who can make me feel this way. I feel secure and content when I'm with him.I simply watched her as she sang. She's like a masterpiece while singing and tapping the strings of the guitar. Her voice and the guitar create a beautiful melody.Slowly, she opened her eyes, and just at the right moment, our gazes met. Neither of us wanted to break the eye contact; we allowed each other to drown in each other's gaze.I

    LARA VIAAs I opened my eyes, I saw the stars stuck to the ceiling. I still remember how annoyed Cole Aiden was when he first saw them, and I chuckled to myself as I recalled the reason behind those stars. It's funny how cliché her brothers and their friends can be, acting like teenagers. They said it's the first time he's sleeping here again. The last time he checked, his room's ceiling was clean, but now there are glowing stars stuck to it. And I'm pretty sure Kuya Landon is the one behind it. I don't know what's up with that group of friends, but they're all a bit nuts. They're all childish, clingy, and cliché, honestly. None of them are sane. They each have their own ways and tactics of showing their craziness. If I were to compare Cole Aiden to his friends, I'd say he's twice as normal as them. They're all crazy. Sometimes, they can be irritating, especially when they argue with each other. Your ears will definitely bleed from listening to their banter.Turning to my side, I didn

    LARA VIA"Sleep, you need to rest, baby," I didn't protest as I felt the soft bed beneath me where I lay down. I was so drowsy, even though I didn't want to sleep, I couldn't stay awake for long. I felt his lips on my temple before darkness enveloped me.A loud noise jolted me awake, and I was a little annoyed. My sleep was so good! I thought it might be my cellphone on the side table. I quickly silenced my ringtone before answering. Oh god, who's this asshole or bitch calling me so early? Couldn't they see I was still asleep? I'm so tired from last night, I need to regain my energy."Hello," I answered, my eyebrows raised in irritation."Where the hell are you, LARA VIA SMITH!" That was the greeting from the other end."WHERE ARE YOU, LARA VIA! SPEAK, YOU HARDHEADED LITTLE WITCH!" My eyes widened as I recognized the voice. It was Kuya Logan. Oh my god! What should I do!?I felt a knot in my chest because they didn't know where I was, and I always told them I was at my condo. Damn, th

    LARA VIAI quickly got up from lying down because of the headache and feeling like my stomach was about to flip. It's been a week since I've been experiencing this, and every time I wake up, I rush to the bathroom in my room to throw up. I held onto the edge of the sink tightly due to the dizziness. I washed my face to try and feel better, at least a little. Oh god, what's happening to me? I felt a sense of anxiety knowing that I might be ill! Oh no, I hope not!I haven't seen a doctor yet because my schedule has been hectic. Even though I want to tell my brother, Kuya Logan, about this, I'm scared. He's a doctor, and he might say something I won't like. I know I'm a healthy person, so maybe this will pass. I felt a sense of nervousness knowing my family is coming. They're probably going to tell Dad if I don't say anything about my problem, and knowing my brothers, they'll just make things worse!I hadn't informed Aiden about this either because he would overreact. He'd freak out and

    LARA VIAHere's the English translation of the text:---The white ceiling is the first thing I see when I open my eyes. My nose feels itchy, and the hospital's natural smell irritates me as it hits my nostrils. Oh god, what am I doing in the hospital? Did something come up? What happened to me?"Oh god, thank goodness you're okay now," I shift my gaze to Mom, who's holding my hand, with Grandma and my three brothers beside her. They all look worried as they glance at me, but when they see me sitting on the hospital bed, they visibly relax. I feel a headache; I must have fainted."Do you feel anything? Are you okay?""I'm okay now, Mom, don't worry about me." I look around, but the person I expected isn't there. Then I remember that he was beaten up by my dad. I quickly sit up on the hospital bed, which surprises the five of them."W-where's dad? Where's Aiden?" They all avoid my gaze, which makes me worry more about Aiden, knowing how serious Dad can be and how he spares no one."D-d

    COLE AIDEN"I bit my lip to hold back the impending tears. I don't know what good deeds I've done to deserve such an almost perfect family."Hey, stop crying!" I smiled as I saw my wife. Instead of sitting in the chair next to me, she sat on my lap."Happy Father's Day!" My forehead creased as she handed me a brown envelope. What is this? I quickly opened it and almost wanted to roll on the floor in joy at what I saw. I was right! She was two and a half months pregnant. How did I not notice her baby bump? She wiped the tears from my eyes and kissed me on the lips."Oh my god, you don't know how happy you make me, Lara! This is the best gift ever!""Well, I still have a gift for you.""Really, what—" Before I could finish what I was saying, she captured my lips and I pulled her closer, deepening the kiss. She's such a tease! My member started to harden because she was moving her hips faster. Maybe it was her hormones; they say pregnant women tend to be more active."Choke me later, dad

    Cole AidenCole sighed softly, his gaze lingering on his wife as she meticulously adjusted his tie. The knot felt tight around his neck, almost suffocating, but it wasn't the tie that bothered him. It was the impending departure, the separation from his wife and daughter that weighed heavily on his mind."Why? Is something wrong with the tie? I can change it if you want," his wife inquired, her brow furrowed with concern."No, it's not the tie. I just... I don't want to leave right now. I want to stay here with you and our daughter. I can work later. Let's go out for shopping, dinner, or anything else," Cole replied, his voice tinged with a hint of longing."Aiden, here we go again. There's always time for us. You worked from home just yesterday!" His wife's frustration was palpable as she turned away from him, breaking free from his attempted embrace. Cole cursed inwardly; he knew he had pushed her buttons once again. In recent weeks, he had noticed her growing sensitivity, her heigh

    COLE AIDEN"DADDDDDDDDDDDY! WAKE UP IT'S ALREADY EIGHT!" The abrupt sound pierced through the stillness of the morning, forcing me to hastily shield my face with the nearest pillow, desperately attempting to muffle the shrill cry of my child. When had I ever been roused from slumber without feeling like my eardrums were on the verge of shattering? I'd already reprimanded her about it, but it seemed she had inherited my own penchant for disregarding volume control.Why did she always have to wake up like this? No matter what, my child seemed determined to jolt me awake, leaving me with no option but to release a deep sigh and try to steady my nerves."DADDDDY!" I clenched my eyes shut as Lauren's voice, sharp and piercing, assaulted my senses once more. It felt as though she was intentionally aiming to rupture my eardrums!"Ouchhhh!" A sharp pain shot through my side as her kick landed squarely, leaving me with no choice but to begrudgingly haul myself out of bed to avoid further injur

    COLE AIDEN"Ohhh fvck, Lara! My d*ck piercing is back, but that's the least of my concerns right now. I quickened my pace as I felt myself nearing the edge. Ohhh god, this is harder than I thought!"Ahhh ohhh fvck, I'm cuming!""AIDEN!" Before she could climax, I heard Lara screaming from outside. Damn. Panicked, I rushed out, completely naked and fully aroused, my member proudly on display in front of my wife."What happened, Lara? Are you okay?" I approached her anxiously, ignoring my own state."Damn it Cole!" She cursed."Ohhhh fvck!" I winced as she squeezed my member, not too tightly but enough to make me release. I could see my release filling her hand. Sh*t, I messed up!"AIDEN!" Before I could react, she grabbed an antique vase and threw it at me. Damn, I even bought that at an auction! I didn't even realize I was wet from my earlier mishap."Ohhh fvck!" I winced in pain as I sat down, feeling the discomfort. Damn, wrong timing. I quickly dressed and hurried downstairs, just

    "COLE AIDEN""What's up, bro!" I squinted and ran my fingers through my hair. I groggily got up from bed because, like before, this was always the scene. I needed to get up; otherwise, I'd be suffocated. I shouldn't anger Lara; her anger is different, so I should watch my words carefully. It's hard; she might scold me again in front of Finn.Oh god, it's such a good thing, and it's music to my ears. My wife! Damn, I'm such a crazy idiot smiling alone here. But I don't care because she's the only one who's seen every part of me, witnessed my flaws and weaknesses, yet never judged me. Instead, she loves me the most, accepting all my flaws and weaknesses, filling in where I lack.She's overqualified for my standards; I'm such a lucky bastard to have her as my wife. This is once in a lifetime; it's hard to find a woman like Lara, who'll accept you completely despite your shortcomings, who'll forgive your mistakes, intentional or not, and love you fully."Hey, are you still there, Aiden?

    "LARA VIA""Tired?" I leaned in as it asked, drawn closer by its question. I didn't mind because I loved being in his arms. I've grown accustomed to him always being by my side, and I'm sure this time he won't let me go and push me away. And if it ever happens, I won't allow it. We promised each other that we wouldn't grow tired of each other.We vowed to try to understand each other's moods and personalities. I know there are still many things I don't know about him, and vice versa."Who wouldn't be tired, right? Well, what if you were in my shoes, huh? Look, you're so fast and rough, my waist hurts," his chuckle was sexy in my ear. Concern flashed across his face because of what I said. He quickly reached for my waist and lightly touched it, causing me to squirm with ticklishness."Are you okay? What else hurts? Just tell me, and I'll massage it," he quickly grabbed my hand and kissed the back of it. He's always like this, and I'll never grow tired of his sweet gestures. This is one

    LARA VIA"Cole Aiden!" I slapped him as he slid under my gown, feeling it slowly descend down to my underwear. Oh god, he's such a tease! I could feel his hand stroking my wetness and every part of my sensitive skin; he truly knows every inch of me. I gripped onto the bedsheets tightly as I felt his tongue teasing my entrance and bud. Oh god, it feels so good, I love it, he's driving me crazy!"Ohhh god Aiden. Hmm yeah, that's it!" He parted my folds with both hands and gently teased my clit with his tongue. I moaned from the pleasure it brought. He repeated the motion over and over again."Ohhh ahhh ohhh Aiden, lick me hmm!" I couldn't help but shout in pleasure. My body was heating up, and I wanted him to lick and suck me roughly and faster, I guess it was my hormones."Ohhh Aiden, make it fast!" He held me up, gently raising my hips. I guided his head under my gown and pressed it against my womanhood."Ohhh f*ck Aiden, it feels so good hmm!" My knees weakened, and I trembled as I c

    LARA VIAThe events have unfolded rapidly; it feels like just yesterday I was in Spain, cursing Cole Aiden, wishing our paths would never cross. I loathed him to the core, cursing him in my mind, hoping every day that he would suffer as I suffered, wishing he would experience what I went through.He dumped me like I was nothing, continuously hurting me, and what's worse, he made me feel embarrassed and rejected in front of many people. It traumatized me; he was my first love and my first heartbreak.But here I am now, taking deep breaths as I gaze at myself in the mirror. And now, I almost want to be with him all the time. Even though my hands aren't sweaty, I'm sweating profusely, and I feel extremely nervous."Inhale, exhale, breathe, princess.""Mommy, Lola," they both take my hands and hold them tightly."Your hands are sweating; you're nervous, huh? I felt the same when I married your dad," Mom says."Same here, dear, but honestly, your future husband seems even more nervous," th
