Love Within The Shine CHAPTER 38
"HEY! Jessica! The water I drew is mine but you used it to take a bath?! I hate you! I'll be late for school. It's the first day of school! Argh!" Lara shouted at their youngest sister. Their youngest sister just rolled her eyes, unperturbed by Lara's outburst. "You know, sister. I didn't have a shower yesterday because of the disconnection of water. Well, you take a bath every day. So don't be selfish." This is Jessica's reasoning. Her mother scolded her sisters for constantly fighting. "I told you to stop, but you can't listen to your mother! You're always late, and it's the first day of school today. The noise you make will make our neighbors angry. We've only been here for a few weeks, and we could get evicted if we don't quiet down!" It's been almost three weeks since Estella left Lucius' life for good, and the pain and heartbreak she feels are still very fresh in her mind. It's been almost three weeks since Estella left Lucius' life, and the pain she feels is still fresh.

Lucius pinned her against the door and deepened the kiss. She felt like she was in a trance as they continued to kiss, not wanting the moment to end. The feeling of his lips on hers was intoxicating, and she couldn't get enough of him. Estella didn't know why she let Lucius drag her to his condo. She was excited about the young man and couldn't understand why she was acting differently from what her mind dictated. Estella wanted more from Lucius, and it scared her. She tried to turn back to talk to Lucius, but the moment before, he kissed her. And she knew it was too late. She had been enveloped at the moment, and it felt like she was in another world. "Now, I can have you, I want you so bad.." Lucius' raspy voice was barely audible, and Estella could feel Lucius' intense desire from the eyes so that she could see the reflection in the mirror. She turned to talk to him, but he was already engulfed in hot kisses, so she couldn't do anything but move with the young man's lips. She m

When Estella woke up the following day, Lucius was no longer by her side, and she looked around the room and knew she was in Lucius's condo. She thought it was just a dream that she came along and let Lucius enter her life again. What will happen if they start the relationship again? No, it can't. When her mother found out, she was sure she would be angry. She also does not want to disturb the young man's life and his family's. She got up and quickly went to the bedroom door, but when she turned the doorknob, it was locked from the outside! A key was used to lock it from the inside. Why is she locked in this room? Where is Lucius? What is happening to me? She was confused and nervously asked herself as she kept turning the doorknob that wouldn't open no matter what she did. She was startled from her thoughts when someone turned the doorknob, and Lucius's face appeared in front of her. Before she could react, he quickly pulled her to sit on the bed, and she could feel the tightn

During the one week that Estella and Lucius stayed on the island where they were hiding, there was not a day or hour that they were sad. Every day that they spent together was full of happiness and love. But the fear in her heart won't go away, especially when she lied to her family that she had a new job and it was a stay-in, so that she couldn't go home. Estella was worried about the future but determined to stay strong for Lucius's sake. She thought of her family and how much she missed them, but she knew that she had to make this decision for her and Lucius's relationship. Estella was determined not to let fear and doubt bring them down, and she would do whatever it took to keep them together. She knew that if they kept believing in each other, they would eventually find a way to go home without complication. Estella doesn't want her happy relationship with the young man to end, but she knows they can't hide from people who will forever hinder their love, especially in the young

She wanted to burst into anger, but tears filled her eyes because she feared Lucius's situation. His side was full of blood, and he was weak. Estella tried to remain composed, but inside, she was raging. She took a deep breath and looked Yuan straight in the eye. "You're a horrible person!" she said, her voice filled with venom. Yuan was about to approach her when Lucius insisted on standing up, and she immediately helped the young man. "Fuck you, Yuan! Don't touch her or else I'll kill all of you!" Lucius shouted angrily, his eyes burning with rage. Lucius protectively pulled her behind him as Yuan's men closed in, shielding her with his body. Lucius held his side to support the wound on his stomach as one of Lucius's arms blocked her protectively. Lucius still protected me even though he was wounded. Now I will fight more for what we have. She looked worriedly at Lucius. He was already pale, and the blood flow was steady on his side. Estella didn't know what to do; what if

His Father nodded and agreed to his request, "Okay, son. I will help you." It was as if a thorn had been pulled out of him because of what he heard. Now he felt his Father's presence; only now did he feel his Father call him the son he had waited for so long. He only asks for his Father's presence and support. "Thank you, Dad." After he said that, he saw the spark of joy in his Father's eyes that made him smile. "I have to go. I just need some of your men and guns to help me." "Take care." His Father willed and then patted his shoulder twice to support his walk. "You will fulfill our Deal." "You think Lucius is going to come here to save you, huh?" That voice that came from the door. "You're hallucinating!" Estella heard a familiar woman's voice. She tried to reflect on her face because it was quite dark where she was, and only the sun was shining on the bahay-kubo. The woman laughed and turned to the light to see who that woman was. Estella was surprised to see it was Delia.

"Yuan, can you for the love of god stop your madness! Please, I'm begging you, stop this crazy nonsense!" "Fuck you! I don't have a god! I'm the god of my own!" Yuan shouted. "Now, proceed to the second question. Are you happy she's gone? Are you happy she didn't choose me? Are you happy that she died because of you?!" Yuan asked him one question after another, causing more anger, sadness, and hatred in his emotions. "What? Why are you silent? Answer me, Lucius!" "I'm suffering every night because of what happened, Yuan. I kept blaming myself for her death. I know it's not my fault and I'm trying to get through this. Every time I close my eyes, I see her face and I can't help but feel guilty for not being able to save her. You're not the only one who's lost and hurt. I know you understand how I feel because you loved her too. No matter how much time passes, we will never forget her and the joy she brought to our lives. I'm also hurt because Nicole is the woman we both value. We tr

"Mom.. It's okay with me, even though dad has another family. I just want to feel that somehow I have a father.." She pleaded with her mother. "It's okay if you have other families, dad. Thank you, because you came to me in this situation that I did not expect." "Estella, my daughter." Her Father came to where she was and hugged her. Estella's mother could no longer stop her Father from entering the room. "I'm so sorry.. I don't know, I don't know where to find you.. I'm really sorry, my daughter.." "Just admit that you didn't look for me and didn't find out if you had a child. Her mother was angry, and she didn't hide it. "Don't act like you did everything, Arthuro. You could have at least tried to find me." Her Mother was crying, and her eyes looked at her Father with mixed emotions. It was OK with her if her Father had another family. She would accept it with all her heart, and it was open to her heart. She didn't expect them to be whole, especially if he had another family. But

Love Within The Shine SPECIAL CHAPTER
Estella looked at her husband, Lucius, with a concerned expression and asked, "Are you ready to face him?" Lucius nodded, took a deep breath, and said, "Yes, I'm ready." Lucius slowly turned around after putting his clothes on, and his face fell with sadness. "I must face him since he is still part of my existence. He has become part of Nicole's and my life, and I cannot forget about him," he answered Estella with a heavy heart. Estella approached her husband to adjust the collar of his clothes. "I hope you can both forgive each other and start anew." Lucius smiled. "I truly wish that to be the case. I'm desiring to be free of the heaviness I carry in my chest, as well as the anger he carries in his heart." Estella pressed her lips against Lucius's, delighting in the sensation of their mouths coming together for a few seconds before they pulled apart. Estella smiled, and Lucius replied with an affectionate expression. Both of them smile at one another with a hint of affection. T
Love Within The Shine EPILOGUE
LOVE LAST FOREVER Estella was distracted because a warm hand caressed her cheek in the middle of her deep sleep. She slowly opened her eyes to find out who that daredevil was. But when she saw Lucius' face, her lips spontaneously smiled and she felt an overwhelming sense of happiness. "Sorry, did I wake you up?" Lucius apologizes to her. "Isn't it obvious?" She asked her husband, rolling her eyes. Lucius just laughed. You are right in thinking, they are married on paper and in the eyes of God. After the revelations that day, everyone decided to have Lucius take a DNA test to find out the truth. Both Lucius and she were very happy when it was probably not really Arthur's son, because she, Estella, was the real daughter and blood relation of Arthur Hudson. They just hid the truth and only their families knew. Estella didn't change her last name, either. She stayed as Estella Velazquez and Lucius as Lucius Hudson. They don't want to mess things up. Thanks to Lucius' mother Lavinia,

While Lucius' lips covered Estella's lips, he gently placed her on the young man's bed like a gold that was afraid of being tarnished. She was like a pearl that did not want to be tarnished and hurt. Estella felt Lucius' arms around her, she felt safe and secure, as if she was in a cocoon of warm love and affection. Lucius' hands roamed around her body and caressed her skin in a delicate and gentle way. Estella felt her heart race as Lucius' lips moved against hers. She felt herself melting into him as the kiss became deeper and more passionate. She felt as if all her worries, and concerns were melting away, replaced by a feeling of utter bliss. Lucius' kiss was like a drug that was making her feel intoxicated with pleasure. She felt as if she was in a dream, and the only thing that mattered was the two of them in that moment. "Lucius.." Estella murmured Lucius' name as their lips parted for a moment and looked at each other full of love and desire. She brushed his soft, dark hair a

"LUCIUS! Where are you taking me?! I can't see!" Estella frowned when she asked her boyfriend. They had just gotten out of the car, and he supported her because her eyes were still closed. "It's a secret for now." That was the only response from the young man. Curiosity deepened in Estella's mind when she felt the waving water on her feet, bringing coldness throughout her body. She felt the water with one foot and knew they were in the sea. "Lucius? Where are we?" She suddenly felt scared because the young man beside her disappeared. She groped for air and thought it was somewhere nearby. But no, the young man was gone. "Lucius?" She called the young man's name in a nervous voice. "Lucius? It's not a good joke!" She wanted to remove the blindfold, but it was tight. But she insisted, and when she succeeded in removing it, her eyes widened when she saw a large tarpaulin floating in the air, and going along with the gust of wind, there was a written note attached to it. 'I lov

Estella laughed bitterly. "What are you doing here?" She asked. "I don't care about you, I don't care about all of you, so can you please leave!" She turned her back on Lucius and walked away, but she hadn't even taken a single step away when Lucius carried her like a sack of rice. No matter how much she struggled to escape his arms, she still couldn't because the young man was too strong for her. "Put me down! What the hell, Lucius!" "For goodness' sake, Estella, will you just keep quiet and stop worrying everyone! You're putting everyone in danger by being so impulsive! Just think how worried your family will be if something bad happens to you!" Estella smiled, not happy but hurt, looking evilly at the young man. "Stay away from me, and I don't need your worry. You tricked me, and it's like you killed me, Lucius. In the secret you kept, we are blood-related. I'm your sister. Destiny really plays a different game." Her words were full of resentment and bitterness, laced with

"I'm very sorry, Estella.." That was all her father said. "Your love for my son is forbidden. Because you are related by blood." Lucius' mom said for the third time, her voice filled with sadness. "Now, go away. I don't want my son is carrying a heavy feelings because of you, Estella. Now that you know the truth, maybe you've wondered why I kept you away all this time." "Let's go, Estella." "You are all disgusting liars! Why did you hide this from me for all this time? I'm hurting so much. You hurt me, mom and I hate all of you!" Estella yelled, and her eyes filled with tears. "I thought I could trust you, but now I realize that I was wrong. I am so angry and disappointed in all of you. How could you do this to me? This betrayal cuts deep, and it's something that I will never forget." Tears flowed down both her cheeks, one after the other. She could feel nothing but pain in her heart. Her hands and feet trembled. It was like she was not herself. She wanted to convince herself tha

"Lu-Lucius!" Estella called the young man's name while trying to hold his hand. Now has she seen the young man again, because the young man did nothing but avoid and hide from her. She was going crazy, wondering why the young man acted this way. She wants to know why; she feels he loves her, but she can't figure out why the young man treats her like this. Estella became desperate and started to shout his name more and more. She wanted to know what had happened. Why was he pushing her away? She was willing to do anything to find out why he behaved this way, even if it meant she had to do something extreme. She couldn't bear the thought of losing him, but she was starting to realize she wouldn't get the answers she sought. He's been avoiding her for almost a week, and it hurts. She wants to talk to him and find out what's wrong, but every time she calls, he doesn't answer. She can't help but feel like he's pushing her away, and she doesn't understand why. She's been trying to be under

But now, it's not just about you! It's about my life! It's about Estella.." His voice softened when he said the young woman's name. "I thought the only person I should hate was dad. But Mom, you too... You lied to me. I hate you." He felt like he was about to give up while thinking about Estella, as if half of his personality had died. His mommy still held him, while his daddy was still shocked, especially when he mentioned Estella's name. "What do you mean?" His daddy asked in surprise. He turned a darker look at his Father. "Estella, she is the daughter of Selia Velazquez, she is your daughter!" He shouted angrily. "And, fuck! She's the woman I love!" His Father's jaw dropped, and his mother's eyes were filled with tears. It was like cold water poured over them while his heart was broken and broken, and his mind was running through so much. He had always been a bit of a rebel, and he knew his parents would not be happy with his revelation. But he could not deny his feelings an
