Samantha wears a maroon melody fashion front tie puff sleeve smock dress for Andrius’s mom’s party. While putting the shade on her lips, she can see Andrius's reflection in the vanity mirror. The man never spoke a word since she woke up. And she doesn’t know if it is about the slap. She was a bit afraid to talk to him first, that’s why she chooses to remain silent. She doesn’t want to argue with him, and silence is the only way to prevent it.
She gasped when she met his eyes. The man is currently tying his tie. He looked handsome in his slim-fit tuxedo. His veins were visible as he was tying it which makes her gulp and averted her eyes. She finishes her stuff and stands up. She grabbed her stilettos inside her luggage and wear them. She looked up when she saw a pair of shoes in front of her, their eyes met. She doesn’t know but she suddenly felt like she wanted to burst out. Her eyes became gloomy as she stares at him. Thus, she looked away. She heard his deep sigh and suddenly she felt his warm hands on her left cheek.Don’t cry. Don’t cry… she said to herself.“Look at me,” he said in a soft, husky voice, which makes her heart flutter. She then slowly looked at him. their eyes met and the man flashed a genuine smile at her. “I’m sorry,” he said.She shook her head, “no… I know it’s my fault. Sorry, babe,” she said.“Wow. This is the first time you called me with that endearment,” he said, amused.Andrius leaned down and took a peck on her lips which makes her blush.“You looked ravishing, baby. And I hope I will control myself not to throw punches to other men who will dart their eyes at you, later.”“Andrius…”“Kidding. So…” he reached for her hand and help her to stand up. He looked at her, “shall we, mi amour?” he said.She shook her head in disbelief. Andrius never fails to be a gentleman as always, just never mentioning their first encounter.WHEN THEY went down, Andrius's mother approaches them. “Andrius, Samantha, it’s good you’re here.” The old lady looked at her from head to toe which makes her feel uncomfortable. Her grip on Andrius's arm tightened. The man looked at her and met her eyes, and an invisible thought flashed… saying that everything will be fine.“Oh, honey, you look beautiful and enchanting. With…” once again the old lady scans her from head to toe, “and you have a nice dress,” she finally said and threw a fake smile. She almost wince when she said that. Samantha was aware of those looks because of her recent job, and she knew Andrius's mother doesn’t like her. She can tell it by the old lady's reaction.But she needs to be ladylike and act prim and proper. Thus, she never lowers her gaze. Instead, she met the old woman’s eyes and threw a sweet and proud smile. “Thank you, ma’am,” she said and bow her head. Like she was meeting a queen—a devil one. A sly smirk formed on her lips before lifting her head.“E-Enjoy the party,” said the woman and left.As much as she wanted to burst into laughter upon seeing how the old lady reacted, she just held herself and divert her full attention to her boyfriend.“Let’s dance,” she said.They glide for a while on the dance floor until they decided to grab a drink. Standing beside the five-layer cake, they talk about their plans once they get back in Vegas—especially her plans.“What if you established your own studio in Vegas or maybe worked on Silver Dust Studio, Dad will be happy with it,” she said.The man sipped on his glass, “actually, he offered me a job,” he informed.“Really? Then accept it. And it will not be hard for us.”Andrius smiled and was about to talk when a woman hugged him and kissed him on the cheek. “Andy, I’ve missed you,” said the girl in a black backless dress.Shocked, she almost dropped the glass, but Andrius has a swift reflex… Thus, he held her hand as he pushes the woman away from him.“Whoa!” the woman gasped in awe. “Who is she, Andy?” the woman asked.Andrius pulled her closer to him and their body touches. “She’s my girlfriend, Maddy,” he said, trying to suppress his anger because of what the girl did right in front of Samantha.“Oh. Sorry. My bad,” she said and formed a mocked smile on her lips.Dylan approaches them and stands beside Maddy, he leaned closer to the girl and whispered something, which makes him frown.Maddy’s eyes widened as she looked at them… particularly at Sam’s side. Sam looked at him and smiled. “I’m fine,” she mumbled.He then loosens his grip on her waist. “Let’s go somewhere else,” he said, and Sam nodded. They’re about to walk away when Maddy speaks.“Hey, Samantha, why not entertain us with a hot lap-dancing,” she said and laughed.Some of the guests gasped and some laughed along with Maddy… especially Dylan who has the loudest laughter among them all.He clenched his fists; Sam saw it and she held it. “It’s fine. Calm down and take me away from here. Please…” she whispered as she tries to restrain herself from crying.SAMANTHA can’t help herself not to dive into her thoughts and compare things. When her father—who’s a famous producer, introduced her to the crowd, no one dared to humiliate her or judge her because of her recent job. She knew that when a person got curious about anything, he or she will conduct research—and no one dared to publish or any terms of shaming others when she was known as Samantha Johansson by many.But now, how cruel other people could be that they need to flaunt things just to humiliate her? How cruel they be to make fun with her? She always reminds herself—as Andrius thought her to, to be tough and don’t let others hurt her feelings. But she’s just a human with a fucking feeling. If only she was born with congenital insensitivity—whereas she couldn’t feel pain, then she will just ignore them.Andrius led her to their room after the incident, the man never let go of her hand when they went inside. She could also feel how tense he is because of his heavy breathing, where he was trying to control himself not to get mad.“Hey, I’m o-okay,” she said and tries not to choke but she failed.Andrius cupped her face, their eyes met, and she can see sympathy and anger in his eyes. She raised her hand and held the left side of his face. “I’m okay. I need to… I need to be okay, right?” But her tears traitor her as they dripped down from her eyes to her cheeks. She shook her head and looked away.“Sam… I’m sorry, I should’ve not brought you here—”She gazed at him and flashed a weak smile, “it’s not your fault. Don’t worry!” she tried to make her voice lively, “I can handle it—I must handle it. But that Maddy,” she clenched her fist, “how dare her to kissed and hugged you right in front of me?” A tint of anger was visible in her tone.Andrius heaved a deep sigh, “she’s my childhood friend.” He sighed again, seems like he wanted to say something but he was having a hard time.She wiped her tears and stared at him. “Then?”She could feel his tensed breathing.“She kinda used to do the… the greeting—”“Like that hugging and kissing you?”He nodded and looked away.“And even Beatrice tolerated that?”He nodded again and pouted his lips as he looked at the carpeted floor and began to tap his feet.She restrained herself not to smile, knowing how cute Andrius reacted.“If Beatrice, let that bitch,” she pointed the way out, imagining Maddy’s face behind it, “to touch you, well, I’m not,” she said. “And don’t ever act innocent in front of me like you don’t want what she did to you—”“Of course, I don’t want it,” he uttered which makes her frown.“Really?”“Of course. Come here,” he said and pulled her closer to him, thus, they landed on the bed. Their eyes met and she can saw desire in Andrius's eyes, all of a sudden.She crossed her arms, covering her chest which makes Andrius chuckle.“Don’t. you. dare,” she warned. But Andrius seems not to bother about it.His hand slowly touched her cheek and caresses it. “You’re beautiful, Sam. And I can’t get enough of it,” he said, sweetly.Something warm rose and stops on her cheeks. Damn! she could be blushing.Her tummy tumbles down, she could feel butterflies in her tummy. Andrius continue to touch her until it stops on her left arm down to her pile, and he did squeeze it. She closes herself when she feels the familiar feeling again. How heat enveloped the man’s hand so that even though her dress was still on, she could feel the warmth of his palm.Deliberately, his hand travels down to her soft white legs and presses them. when she opens her eyes their eyes met, and Andrius went closer to her, and the next she knew, their lips met. He started to move, gently nibbling her lower lip, savoring every bit of it. She then responded. A moment later, they’re exchanging moans and groans as they go further.He was about to take off her dress when they heard a knock outside their door. God knows how she refrained herself not to laugh because of her boyfriend's reaction. Knitted forehead, angry eyes, and a clenching jaw as he tried not to burst out.“Damn it!” he cursed and stood up roughly.She bit her lower lip, trying to stop herself but she can't. Her laughs echoed in the four corners of their room. At that moment, she almost forgot about the humiliation and focused on the man’s reaction. Andrius stopped walking and turned to her. She then stopped laughing and puffed her cheeks to prevent it.THE NEXT DAY, Andrius decided to get back to Vegas. He just wanted to prevent any scandal again and he could also feel how awkward the atmosphere inside their house was. He cared so much for Samantha’s mental health. And he knew that staying longer with his family can make the woman overthink.“Are you sure about this?” Samantha asked when they were climbing downstairs.He nodded, “it’s for the better,” he replied.She stopped, “but they miss you too, and I don’t want them to think that I’m a sort of a bitch controlling you.”“How many times do we have to talk about this, babe?”She looked down, “I’m sorry.”He approached her and lifted her head, “look at me,” he started, and she then met his eyes, “you have to rehearse for the event in Atticus, right? Besides, mom’s birthday was done, and I have nothing to do in here—”“You have to manage your restaurant, isn’t it, Andrius?” his mother said as the old woman climbed down too and stopped in front of them.“Mom, Samantha has lots of wor
“How’s your practice?” Andrius asked while cutting his beef steak. Andrius fetch her after their rehearsal and invited her over to dinner in a fancy restaurant.She twirled her fork to curl up her Italian pasta, “all good. And of course, tiring. But we’ll have money with it. As what we’ve dealt with the event organizer, half… the half will be given to us and we’re going to donate to the Silver Dust Foundation for kids and adults who were in need,” she said.“Hmm… I really admire Mr. Johansson for having such a big heart for other people,” he concluded.“You’re right. And I’m lucky to be her daughter. I requested that we also help those people who were in need of their medication. Like those cancer patients who are having trouble financially with their treatments.”“You sure got his kindness. And you will be his only heiress. Sooner, you’ll be the CEO of Silver Dust, from the hotels and restaurants down to his studio and foundations.”She smiled, “it takes time for all of that. I need
THE NEXT day, Samantha woke up early than Andrius. When she got down in their kitchen, she saw her father sipping on his cup of coffee while reading a newspaper. Well, nothing changes. Her father's routine was always like that.“Good morning, Dad,” she greeted.“Princess, you’re early today,” he said. There he goes with the princess thing again. It sounds too girly. And she’s not used to it, but she kind of likes it.We will be having our final practice for the event tomorrow,” she replied.The old man put down the newspaper on the side of the table.“I’m so proud of you, Samantha. And your mom will even more proud when she’s still alive.”A maid put down a plate of toasted bread in front of her and a jam beside it. “Thank you,” she said to the woman before she looks back to her father.She grabbed a piece of bread and a butter knife to spread jam on it. “Hmm… about mom, dad. When will we visit her grave?” she asked.Her father sighed. “I will just finish all my projects this year and
“GEEZ! Samantha. You have a huge and elegant house,” said Helen. “I wish I could leave with this kind of house too,” she added.She smiled, “you can move here if you want. The house is open for you,” she said.“Really? Can I?” she asked and grasped her hand while her eyes wander around.“Yes, you can. We’re looking for a new maid—”Helen slapped her shoulder. “Don’t tell me, you’re thinking that it should be me?” she asked and pouted her lips.“Just kidding,” she replied and laughed. “Let’s go,” she added.Helen owns an auto, but she did buy it in the Class A shop. Well, money matters most with her friend. Besides, according to her, there’s no difference between new and old. They both have the same car that is meant to be driven.Helen got a weird taste in everything, and she has no say about that. What Helen said, it will stay like that.“So, Andrius permitted you to have fun with me?” she started and opened the door in the driver’s seat. She opened it on her side and went in.“Yes.
ANDRIUS lied to Maddy. There’s no such thing that he will meeting Sam during lunch, but he has the plan to fetch her and ask her for a date. But the girl seems to enjoy the company of her friend, and he doesn’t want to ruin it.Sam keeps sending him photos and informing him where they are. And he can’t help himself not to get amazed by the girl. He never expected that the girl will report everything when they were apart.He trusts Sam and even the latter won’t tell wherever she was or what she was doing, there will be no problem with that. but he was grateful that the woman knew how to make his heart feel at ease.He then called her the moment he got inside his car and asked the girl if he can get along with them. Samantha on the other line agreed. She even screamed out of joy. Sometimes, he doesn’t know or predict the mood of the girl. One thing he just knew, the girl was easy to please when how mad she was.Samantha told him their location.After minutes of driving, he arrived at a
WHEN SAMANTHA woke up the next day, Andrius was already gone on her side. After making her reached ecstasy last night, she remembers that the man turned to her side and hugged her. She was tired and sleepy at that time and didn’t even answer his ‘I love you'.She took off the white sheet covering her bareness and walked through the bathroom, not minding her nakedness.She switched on the shower and cold water poured into her which makes her scream. Her thoughts traveled on the event that got postponed because one member of her team was injured. And they need to change some of the routines. Hopefully, they resolved it and will perform tomorrow night.She finishes bathing and afterward, she fixed herself and went down. Her eyes landed on the huge wall clock in their living room. It’s almost ten in the morning. Did she oversleep that much?She was about to enter the kitchen when she remembered Andrius. She then climbed upstairs again and stopped in front of his room. She was about to kno
THERE’S NOTHING greater than the love of your life showing you how he is truly devoted to you. She was happy that she has Andrius in her life.The way he treasured her and was honest with her gives peace to her mind and eases her heart. Thus, she always does the same.She doesn’t want to hide anything from him. To keep their relationship stronger, they need to be loyal and trustworthy.Many things will still happen between them but when they trust—and never be lured by any temptation, they will still be until the end.Love is a game. Sometimes it can be tricky. You don’t know when it let out its scheme. The time tests you. The situation tests you. It’s up to you how to handle it. And sometimes, you couldn’t know how it works or how it played. You just do whatever you knew was the best but, in the end, it was the worse… and boom! Game over.Samantha will never call their relationship to be perfect. Because she knew that there will still be time that they can face conflicts… difficultie
THE WHOLE place was filled with a thunderous sound. Different light effects lit all over the place. But one spotlight was meant just for her. She closes her eyes as the luminous light from the beam almost blinded her. The entrance music started to play, and other members started to perform below the ground.When the light moved to Calum—one of their star dancers, she took a deep breath and gripped tightly on the iron hoop. She roamed her eyes and saw Andrius’s head upon her and smiled.He mouthed ‘I love you’ and she did answer it back.Her eyes travel beside Andrius and she saw her father who was now clapping his hands as he was watching in front. Beside her father is Helen, who seems to sense that someone is eyeing her, thus, she met her eyes and winks.She slightly shook her head. As far as she knew, her friend wants to try seducing her father. Well, she will just let her be and wish her luck.At the top part, next to the entrance, her eyes caught the newcomer, “Maddy,” she whisper
WHEN THEY SAY, expect the unexpected… you should believe in it.Maddy had a great time with the boss and exited the room wearing her wide smile. She was about to step her left foot on the staircase when she saw the boss’s mistress—Ruri, approaching her side.She crossed her arms and looked at her as she holds onto the shiny wooden railings.“Where did you go?” Ruri asked which makes Maddy form a sly smirk on her lips.“Got some time with the boos, why?”Ruri smiled, but there was something hideous in it and Maddy has a bad feeling about it.“You mean you did sex with the boss?” Ruri asked as she put her hand on her back seems like she was getting something.“I… I—well, she’s the one who initiated it and wanted me to pleasure him—” Maddy didn’t finish what she was about to say when Ruri aimed her gun at her and plant a bullet in her forehead without hesitation.Maddy then fell and rolled into the stairs and Ruri just blow the muzzle of her gun as she climbed down, gracefully.Basilisk'
SAMANTHA’s Baby bump is getting bigger as time goes by and there’s still no progress in her condition. Andrius, Helen, and Mr. Johansson almost lose hope but every time they saw her fighting every day, their hopes keep on growing.It was a cloudy day when they have visitors that they never expected to come—especially, Andrius. He couldn’t believe that they will visit.“Son,” said the voice he never heard for a long time since he stays in Vegas.His mom.Andrius family were there—visiting them. His parents, Dylan and Athena, and along with his sister his best friend, Chuck.By the looks of it, it seems like they’re having a reunion.His mother went closer to him but he just remained at his place—sitting beside Samantha.His mother looked at Samantha—and he doesn’t know if her mother was showing her real emotion—if it was really a pity or what.“What are you all doing here?” Andrius asked as he glanced at them and turn back to Samantha and held the woman’s hand.“I’m so sorry, son.”And
MR. MONDE’S thunderous voice roared inside his mansion when he woke up because when he went to seek Maddison, the woman was not there, and worst, when he opened her closet, her clothes were gone.His two guards who are now kneeling on the ground keep on trembling as they looked useless in Mr. Monde’s eyes.The two guards let Maddy slip away since they knew that the woman is kind and even offer them sex the other day and Mr. Monde found it out—now, the old man was holding a gun and aiming it at the guard on his left and never hesitated to pull the trigger and the guard fell on the cold floor, lifeless.The man on Monde’s left was about to get up and run when the mad old man shot him in the back of his head.His maids were just standing there and seem unbothered since they already knew what the old man was capable of.The man climbs upstairs still madness is visible on his face. And dialed Basilisk's number to seek help.In just two rings, the man picked up the phone.“Good day, Bas,” M
THE NEXT DAY, it’s still four in the morning when Maddy left her uncle’s mansion and booked to a hotel and she tells Basilisk. The man then came back to Vegas to fulfill the mission that came from the boss.As Maddy expected, her phone vibrated and her uncle’s number appeared which she just declined. She knew that her uncle will get insane in finding her and there was a possibility that he will let his men find her—but Maddy is not that dumb to think about it.Thus, Maddy then booked a room with her friend's name—one of the receptionists at the Silver Dust hotel. Her uncle will never bother to find her at Silver Dust since Mr. Johansson is already about his true color.When she gets there, she just takes a nap until she woke up at ten in the morning and just let a bell boy deliver her food—she must not wander around since she’s in the enemy’s territory and she doesn’t know if Mr. Johansson also knew about her… being involved with Mr. Monde.She just exited the room when she heard a kn
MR. JOHANSSON was busy discussing with the team when he receives a call from Helen saying Andrius left when the man receives a call.Mr. Johansson then let agent Wise track Andrius and they found out that the man is on his way to California.“What’s wrong with that dude?” Spencer asked Wise.“I don’t know. He seems in a hurry. Looked at the red dot, it’s moving fast,” Wise said as they were watching on the monitor.“Yeah. And why does he need to go to L.A.?”Mr. Johansson joined their conversation. “His family lives there and whatever it is, maybe it’s about their family. I will call him,” said Mr. Johansson and left his two boys.Mr. Johansson was dialing Andrius's number and good thing, the man answered.“Where are you going?”“I need to see that fucking Dylan,” he answered, furiously.‘Why, son?”“I received a call that he’s something to do with the accident—”“No. son. However, called you. He or she was just luring you. And you left Helen and my daughter—shit! You need to go back,
ANDRIUS ALMOST lost hope as the days goes by. There are still no changes in Samantha’s condition. Weeks already passed, Helen was already discharged by her doctor and Sam was still there, lying on her hospital bed with different kinds of apparatuses inserted in her body.He almost punches the doctor when he stated the fact that only the machines who’s keeping her breathing. And what most painful news he received yesterday was, Sam’s pregnant.Samantha is pregnant with their first child—without her knowing. Andrius wanted her to experience how happy she was when she found out that she was pregnant—he wants to see how she react—how she informed him about it.He cried all day when he heard about the news. And almost get dehydrated because of the exertion of too much liquid from his body.Helen came in the morning and was the one who look for Sam as the doctor to sleep—they injected him a Propofol to put him to sleep.“What did the police say about the investigation?” Helen asked as she s
ON THE OTHER SIDE, the enemies have been rejoicing with their plan’s success. Bowser was throwing a champagne party with his colleagues and Maddison was at the corner having some intimate session with Basilisk—the right hand of the Boss.They almost reach another stage when Bowser interrupted them. “Excuse me, can I talk to my goddaughter for a minute?” he asked Basilisk and the man nodded but right before Maddy walks away, Basilisk grabs her arm and pressed his lips on hers and it lasted longer which makes Bowser heave a deep sigh.Basilisk threw a death glare at him which makes the old man jerk back.“I’ll be back,” Maddy replied in her flirtatious voice.Maddy followed her uncle into the balcony of the second floor of the hotel.“What is it uncle?” she asked as she crossed her arms and lit a cigarette. She puffed smoke and leaned on the railings.“You should stay away from Basilisk. He’s dangerous and committed multiple crimes.”Maddison chuckled and stops to puff a smoke again. “H
THEY WERE exchanging laughter until they hop inside the car. “If he’s handsome, his smell could be a major turn-off,” Helen said as she started the car engine.Samantha buckles her seatbelt. “Yeah. But don’t forget about his Lamborghini,” she mumbled.Helen laughed. “Even if he got one luxurious car, his smell was a major turn-off for me,” she replied and maneuver the car.They were heading home when Helen tried to step on the break but it didn’t work. “Sam…” Helen called Sam whose eyes were closed as her head leaned on the headrest of her seat.“Sam!” Helen called but a little louder this time but Sam is ignoring them as the latter feel sleepy.“Oh. My. God!” Helen blurted when the car brake still won’t work. She started to tremble as she tried to maneuver the car straightly and it was a good thing because there were just a few cars passing by the road.“Sam…” Helen began to cry and dodged Sam’s arm, the latter then opened her eyes.“What—Helen!” Samantha screamed when a fast car tru
HELEN rushed into Johansson’s house when she received a call from Samantha’s maid. When she got there, she saw unconscious Samantha laying in her bed. Helen’s heart beats fast as she was typing Sam’s father's phone number and she began to get mad when the man wasn’t answering the phone.“Did you tell this to Robert already?” Helen asked the maid but the latter only shook her head. She pulled her hair because of frustration. “Did you call a doctor?” But the maid just shook her head.She then tried to call Robert’s phone number again—but it was just ringing. “Damn!” Helen cursed.She was about to dial it again when she heard Sam’s moans. She then rushed towards her bed and sat on the side.“Hey,” she started as she began to stroke Sam’s hair, “what happened?” Helen asked even if she knew what. Well, she almost shouts to death when she saw the box with a cat’s head.Who was in his or her right mind to send a gross gift like that?She searched the box but nothing was there but it was just
