Thin Boxers

FIVE days had passed, and it was hard to believe that I had been in this unfamiliar place for that long. I regretted not asking Fiore about the location before coming here. I had placed so much trust in him that I willingly agreed to accompany him without questioning anything. If only I had known where we were, perhaps I would have understood why the weather fluctuated between warm mornings and freezing evenings.

Today, the sun was scorching hot, making me long for some fresh air outside. However, the intensity of the sun's heat felt like it could dissolve my skin.

I also wanted to assist Xylon, who was constantly tidying up and organizing every little detail around me. He was taking care of everything, from cleaning and fixing things to cooking and carpentry, embodying all the qualities a woman looks for in a potential husband.

I genuinely wanted to help him, but he didn't allow me to.

"Give me that broom. I'll do the sweeping," I said, snatching the broom from his grasp.

    BookWHY is he modeling that underwear anyway? And why does it somehow affect me?The bound branches of wood almost fell directly at his feet when he saw me, specifically at the object I was holding in my hand."Sh*t! Why do you have that book with you? Are you reading that, Miranda?"My eyes darted to the book I was holding. I was kneeling in front of the center table where I had arranged the books. I froze and remained rooted in place when I read the title of the book in my hand.How to masturb*te?He extended his hand towards me and, like a flash of lightning, snatched the filthy thing from me.How did that book get here? The books I was sorting out were all about music, about how music becomes pleasurable as it stimulates the brain, not about how to stimulate private parts!"U-Uh, I don't know! I don't know why there's a book like that in here!" I pretended to be angry."Be honest, Softy. Are you masturbating?"I was stunned, and I know my face is very... very, very red right now.

    Guilty THE pounding of my heart was unbearable. Its rhythm was so deafening that I couldn't hear anything else. Would I actually say yes? If I did, I would be indulging in another taste of him.Suddenly, a part of the book I had been holding slipped from my grasp, jolting me awake from my dazed state. We both gazed at the thick cover of the torn book, its pages falling apart."Sh*t!" he exclaimed, his voice filled with frustration. He snatched the book from my hand and swiftly stood up."This is my book! What have you done to it?" He desperately tried to gather the scattered pages from the floor, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't restore it to its original form.I could see the desperation etched on his face, and I recoiled as his glare intensified. "That's the last edition of Nikolai Medtner's 'Art of Music' from 1951. There are no more reprints available anywhere in the world! And you've torn it to pieces!"I had no idea that those music books belonged to Xylon. Just a mi

    White Sauce XYLON had no intention of speaking to me. He was dining alone, distancing himself from our usual shared meals over the past few days. I suppose today was an exception.Fine, it was my fault. What could I do to make him forgive me? Damn him! If he wanted to give me the silent treatment, then so be it. After all, his teasing had become annoying.Frustration welled up inside me as I closed my eyes while passing by him, hoping for some sort of reaction. I grabbed a plate and sat in front of him. This was fine. No one would bother me now. I would wait until Fiore returned in two days to take me as his wife. I clung to hope.I focused on my food, pretending that Xylon was alone in this ancestral house. "Fine. Let's do this! This is a cold war!" I thought to myself.But he didn't even look at me. He carried on with his meal as if I were an invisible presence before him."Hey!" I tried to catch his attention to no avail. In an attempt to annoy him, I stuck out my tongue, but it h

    Glowing in the Dark XYLON has been gone for quite some time. "Where did that arse go?" He left me alone in this old house. What if someone shows up here? It's getting late, and he's still out there in the middle of the forest.I reluctantly looked out the wide window, searching for any sign of him. I tightly gripped the window ledge. I shouldn't care, right? I shouldn't be thinking about him after what he said. I don't understand why he's so difficult to figure out.Sometimes, he's incredibly kind to me. Then, other times, he's distant and cold. Our relationship used to have its ups and downs, but now... it's getting even worse.It's his fault that I'm treating him this way. If only he would show some remorse. If he could only try to win me over.I let out a sigh and decided to wait for Xylon outside. We're surrounded by woods, and there could be wild animals around."What if?" I pondered for a moment. What if something happened to him? What if he was bitten by a snake and couldn't fi

    Don’t Fall I LOOKED up, even in the dark, and recognized him. "X-Xylon..." My voice trembled."What are you doing out here? Did you follow me?"I couldn't answer. Fear still gripped me, and I froze when I felt something cold on my leg. I instantly hugged Xylon."Why? What—""Xylon! There's something... on my leg...""Huh! What?" He looked down at my feet, and I felt something squirming on my knee.I jumped and clung to Xylon's neck. He quickly lifted me in his arms."Take me away from here! Hurry! Something is biting my foot!""Biting?" I couldn't see Xylon's reaction. I just buried myself in him. 'I'm scared to death, damn it!'There it was, the terrifying sound again. And it was close. Really close to us."P-Please, Xylon... Let's get out of here," I pleaded, holding him tightly. I could feel his breathing, almost panting."O-Okay," he said, slowly moving. I heard another sound, like panting. I knew it wasn't Xylon. We had company. 'What was that? A monster in the woods.' I gripped

    The Current I LOOKED at my reflection in the mirror, taking in the sight of myself wearing the revealing white lace nightwear. It left little to the imagination, exposing almost everything underneath. Despite feeling refreshed after my bath, my feet still throbbed with the wounds I had acquired while searching for Xylon in the forest.My forehead creased as I noticed the book resting on top of my dresser—the book he had given me. I couldn't deny that I had indulged in pleasuring myself, but a sense of shame washed over me. My office friends often discussed the normalcy of self-pleasure, but I would always walk away from those conversations. While not overly conservative, I had always strived to live a proper and decent life. Admitting that mere thoughts could make me wet and aroused embarrassed me. I believed such intimate acts should be reserved for a special bond, like marriage and love.Yet, as I looked at myself in the lingerie and thought about Xylon, I couldn't help but feel a s

His movements continued, gradually descending to my most sensitive area. Gripping the sheets tightly, my toes curled in pleasure as he found that perfect spot. A moan escaped my lips, unable to contain the ecstasy within me.In this moment, I realized the power of surrendering everything to the one I love. All doubts and hesitations vanished. All I desired was to reach a place I had never experienced before. His tongue played skillfully in my wetness, swirling and teasing a delicate button that ignited my cravings for pure bliss. I felt myself becoming increasingly wet with desire.He mingled his saliva with my essence, creating a unique dance where only we could hear the enchanting music. Minutes seemed to blur as he tantalized and teased, until I felt something enter me. I struggled to find the words to describe it, realizing they

    RunI JOLTED awake as I collided with a solid object, the impact sending a sharp pain through my head. Confused and disoriented, I surveyed my surroundings, trying to make sense of what had just happened."It was just a dream," I muttered to myself, shaken by the realization that the vivid scenes from a previous night had resurfaced in my sleep. Shaking my head in disbelief, I couldn't fathom why my subconscious mind was fixating on that passionate encounter with Xylon. It felt absurd, and yet the sensations lingered within me.Heading to the bathroom, I was greeted with a startling discovery as I noticed a stickiness beneath my undergarments. Frustration welled up inside me at the realization that I had experienced not just a dream but a vivid, arousing dream. Every detail was etched in my mind—the way Xylon touched me, the tender kisses and caresses that sent shivers down my spine. How could I not be affected by such intense sensations?Seeking to wash away the remnants of the dream

You just didn't know, but there were so many times I wanted to snatch you away from Fiore. Every time I see you, I am so disgusted with myself. I wished I had confessed to you right away. I wished I was the one you had chosen. I wished I was the one who was there with you... I wished..." I was startled when I looked back at her. She's crying.

I encircled Miranda with my arms as she leant on my shoulder. I couldn't possibly ask for anything more in this world right now."Are you tired?" I inquired of her."Yes, indeed. But it's all worthwhile, Xylon. I thought this would never happen.”I wrapped my two hands around her and hugged her tightly. "I had the same thought. You're so far away. Your eyes weren't looking at me."She let out a soft laugh. "You're wrong. Because you were so close at the time, my eyes became accustomed to your presence.

"Then start proving your love to me now," I demanded.I saw him bite his lip and he immediately complied by grabbing my ass with both of his hands and lifted me.The groaning sound of his piano spread throughout the entire room as he gently slammed me to sit on his keyboard.Xylon kissed me.

My hands and my knees were shaking.I wanted to know if I was dreaming or I was just imagining. But I panicked when I saw Xylon step away as if he didn't notice me."What?!" I growled at him. "What, Xylon? You're going to leave? Huh?" I asked, trying to calm myself. "Don't turn your back on me! Why didn't you tell me about this house? Why did you lie?"I tried to approach him. But I could only take a step because my knees were still trembling."I could have escaped this place back then. You told me this was too far from f*cking civilizations! You tol

My parents want me to only marry her. So I'm taking her back from you!""She's not a thing, Fiore!" I howled. I was running out of patience. "You asked me to let her fall for me—""I did! And you didn't win her at all. She still loves me, Xylon. You had your chance and you blew it all off."I was embarrassed by what he stressed out and I immediately fell silent. Everything wasn't enough for Miranda to also see me like the way she looks at Fiore. I could never change the shape of her heart.

But he seems to be having a hard time talking to me right now. I discerned this is going to be bad.“He requested that we sign a contract, which we did—""Why did you sign!" I raised my voice in panic.

How did mum end up here?”“Son, your mother was unable to accept that our company has failed. In a week, the bank will confiscate all our assets."I frowned. "Dad, that's not possible.

Do you remember way back before? Fiore was also considered by the principal to be the highest honours, but Xylon still reaped the award," Hamin said. He handed me a glass of speculoos beer."He also got Academic Excellence from DepEd, right? How could Fiore win over Xylon Diaz? Aside from being a babe magnet, he's equally talented."
