Alaric grinned as he stared at the picture of the rally he staged at SSL Cruises. He just ordered a commotion but he got a full blown rally instead-- injuring the Sandejas girl in the process.

He puffed the smoke from his cigar into the morning air with great satisfaction-- mentally noting that he should give Remus and Alphonse, his men currently in Manila, the raise they deserved for exceeding his expectations. He sent them there to be his hands in working on the plan to force Gael to leave to the Sandejas girl.

It has to be his men this time because he cannot trust his weakling of a daughter anymore. Lena cannot keep a man by her side. How can she make it to the end of his plans against the Bernsteins?

He pushed his cigar on the ashtray-- annoyed by events of the past few weeks.

Truth be told, he's a little disappointed of himself for not acting earlier. He should've forced his pathetic weakling of a daughter Lena to stand her ground the minute Gael raised his unexpected plan to st

    “Beer?” alok ni Gray kay Gael.He was at his friend’s house, in an attempt to let the sleepless hours go by. After talking to Lena, he tried going home to sleep. But he just couldn’t. Not when he had a lot of things in mind.“Thanks,” aniya bago tinanggap ang beer-in-can na inaabot nito. He popped open the lid and drank from it. Matapos niyon, muli niyang tiningala ang langit.The night sky was peppered with stars. It’s the kind of sky that Charlie loves.Charlie.He released a slow breath. Hindi niya mapigilang isipin kung kumusta na kaya ito kahit na ilang oras pa lang mula nang huli niya itong makita. He wanted to see her again. Ito at si Levi. He wanted to have both of them in his arms and never let go. But even then if could that, he knew it wouldn’t be enough to fill in the times he was not with them.Muli siyang uminom ng alak.Ilang sandali pa, naramdaman niyang tumabi sa kanya si Gray.

    “Who are these people, Hugo? I do not know any of these people!” Aksel Bernstein irritably asked the loyal assistant of his grandson Gael. He just arrived from Manila a few minutes ago. He did everything as Gael instructed him when he left Germany. He left without his guards. He did not notify any of his servants in the mansion about his plan of leaving. He did not even told Alaric where he’s going. He flew via the chartered flight Gael had arranged for him. Inside it were people he didn’t trust but Gael does. And now, he’s being met by another group of men instead of his grandson? Now he’s flustered. All these strangers surrounding him is making uncomfortable. If it weren’t for the fact that Gael was rushing for him to leave Germany so that they could talk about this ‘traitor’ in their midst, he wouldn’t have flown half-way around the world just to be subjected in this confusion. “They are the people whom Sir Gael had worked with before, Sir,” Hugo replied as the assistant opened t

    “Diese verdammte schlange! (That damn snake!) How can he do this to me!” gigil na sambit na lolo ni Gael. He silently watched as his grandfather flips the very same document that had opened his eyes to the lies of Alaric Schulz. It still angers him that it was the trusted man of his grandfather who did that to them. Truly, betrayal comes to those people who are close to you. And no, he cannot just watch and let Alaric have his way this time. He has already done that for years. And now he must pay. Few minutes more, his grandfather closed the folder and lifted his eyes up at him. “Lena?” he asked, pain in his voice. His grandfather has always been fond of Lena and he knows how hard this was for him, for Lena was an accomplice to her father’s crimes. She must pay too. “I sent her back to Germany. I have eyes on her though. Just like I have eyes on Alaric Schulz right now,” sabi niya, hindi inaalis ang mga mata sa abuelo. His old man released a slow breath. “I will do everything in m

    Malakas ang pagkabog ng dibdib ni Charlie habang paroo’t parito siya sa library kung saan niya hinihintay si Gael. Her grandmother suggested that they’d talk there privately. Noong una, ayaw niya sana itong kausapin. Tutol ang daddy niya na kausapin niya si Gael. Maging ang mga tiyuhin niya ganoon din ang pasya.But her grandmother insisted that they should talk, dahil tama ito, marami silang dapat pag-usapan na dalawa ni Gael. Pero kung siya ang tatanungin, hindi pa siya sana talaga handang kausapin ito. She was still reeling from the events of yesterday. Truth be told, all she wanted and needed to do was to cuddle in bed with her son.She doesn’t need confrontations right now. She doesn’t need to be questioned. She doesn’t need to be pushed to the wall nor make decisions. She had been a crying mess last night. But given the urgency of the situation, she doesn’t have any other choice but to deal with all of it head-on, like the way had been living all her life. Ilang sandali pa, tu

    “How dare you make a fool out of me!” Gael roared as he landed his fists on the face of Alphonse, ang lalaking itinuro ng mga raliyista na nagbayad sa kanila upang manggulo sa SSL. Kilala niya ang lalaki sa mukha subalit hindi sa pangalan. Minsan umaaaligid ito kay Alaric at Lena kasama ng iba pang mga tauhan ng mag-ama. “You will not leave this country alive, do you hear me? You and your friend will rot here and I will make sure of that!” dugtong pa niya.Subalit imbes na matakot, the bastard lifted his black and blue face up at him and smirked. “Ich habe keine angst vor dir außenseiter! (I am not afraid of you, outsider!)”The guts of this a*shole to tell him that! Uundayan pa niya sana ito ulit ng suntok subalit pinigil na siya ni Gray.“Alright, that’s one too many blow, Gael. Bugbog na ‘yang mga ‘yan kagabi pa. At hindi ‘yan ang dahilan kung bakit kita pinapunta rito,” anang kaibigan, hawak siya sa braso. “Tinatanong ng mga nasa taas kung ano raw ang gusto mong gawin?”Bumaling s

    “Sorry, may emergency kasing pinuntahan si Gray, Gael. Pero sabi niya mabilis lang siya. Kaya magmeryenda ka muna habang hinihintay siya,” ani Jasmine habang inilalapag sa harap niya ang isang slice ng cheesecake at isang baso ng juice. “Sorry ha, ‘yan lang ang pwede kong i-offer sa ‘yo. Wala kasi kaming stock ng beer. Hindi pa rin kasi ako nakakapag-grocery. Alam mo na,” anito, bago marahang hinaplos ang tiyan nito.He smiled. “Hey, don’t apologize. Ako nga itong nang-aabala sa inyo ni Gray.”It’s the truth, halos gabi-gabi siya sa bahay ng mag-asawa nitong nakalipas na ilang araw. He just felt he needed to be surrounded with friends now that he facing the greatest battle of her life just yet—taking back his wife and son.“You will never be a bother to us Gael. Kayong dalawa ni Charlie,” anito bago umupo sa katapat niyang upuan sa lanai. “By the way, how are you two?”He forced a smile and released a slow breath. “Still the same.”“And by the same you mean?” “Well, she still won’t

    "Cindy, get me an umbrella, please," mabilis na utos ni Charlie sa katulong na sumalubong sa kanya nang tuluyan siyang makarating sa sala. Tumango ang katulong at mabilis na tumalima. Ilang sandali lang, bumalik ito bitbit ang payong na hinihingi niya. She quickly grab hold of it and went out of the house. "Charlie, where are you going?" saway sa kanya ni Jacob nang nasa portico na siya ng bahay, bahagya pa siyang hinarang. Subalit imbes na sumagot, tuluyan niyang binuksan ang payong at nagdire-diretso sa driveway. Urgency was pumping in her veins. She doesn't mind if Caleb would go berserk once again, he could turn the mansion upside down for all she cares. Iisa lang ang nasa isip niya, ang madaluhan si Gael sa lalong madaling panahon. "Open the gate," utos niya sa security guard nag marating niya iyon. The guard eyed her for a while, subalit sa huli ay tumalima rin. When the single entry gate opened, she quickly slipped through it and there she saw Gael's form, kneeling on the

    Nagkamalay si Gael dahil pakiramdam niya may mga matang nakatingin sa kanya. Nang tuluyan niyang buksan ang kanyang mga mata, saka pa lamang niya naramdaman ang matinding pananakit ng kanyang katawan. He closed his eyes again as he recalled the events before he passed out-- the way he secretly followed Charlie and Levi when they went to the supermarket, the time Caleb caught him pleading with the guards at the mansion to let him enter, the blows Caleb had given him, and the desperation he felt when Caleb told him that Charlie wil never forgive him and that he should just leave. Dread clenched his chest once again. There's fear. And then there's the thought of losing his family... forever. Lahat ng takot at kalituhang na naramdaman niya kahapon ang nagpangyari upang tuluyan na siyang magpakababa at magmakaawa.

    “Again? Pero puno pa ang fridge niyan, love. Nakita ko kagabi nang bumaba ako sa kitchen,” reklamo ni Gael kay Charlie nang muli siyang maglagay ng dragon fruit sa cart. They were out grocery shopping in a local grocery store in Cancun. They have been staying there for a week now in celebration of their second wedding anniversary. It was a trip she didn’t really want to take at first because she easily gets tired lately. But when Gael told her that she will call the shots every time, she was in in no time. She rolled her eyes and faced him. “Can’t you get it? I’m not buying them for me to eat. I’m buying it because they looked cute,” pagrarason niya, muling naglagay ng dalawang piraso pa ng nasabing prutas sa cart. Gael huffed. “Should I buy you a dragon fruit farm?” “Of course not!” sabi niya, muling naglakad sa aisle ng prutas na kinaroroonan nila. “What about a grocery store then? You want me to purchase this grocery store for you?” Namawaywang na siya at hinarap ang asawa.

    “Are you ready?” tanong ng Mommy ni Charlie sa kanya. She filled her lungs with air and gave her mother a slow nod. “Yes,” she replied smiling. Gumanti ng ngiti ang Mommy niya, nangingilid ang luha. Masuyo pa nitong inabot anag kanyang pisngi. “I wish you all the happiness in the world, sweetheart.” “Thanks, Mom,” sabi niya bago niyakap ang ina. They stayed like that for a while bago sila nakarinig ng katok sa pinto. “Hey, the music’s starting and all the guests are waiting. Don’t tell me may balak ka pang itakbo ‘yang anak mo, Sam,” said her father’s familiar voice outside the door. Natatawa nilang binitiwan ng Mommy niya ang isa’t-isa. Sandaling nitong pinunasan ng panyo ang gilid ng mga mata nito bago siya muling nginitian. “Let’s go. Your Dad cannot wait to give you away… officially,” pabirong sabi ng Mommy niya bago inabot sa kanya ang kanyang bouquet. When her mother opened the door to her room, she was met by her father’s loving gaze. “Finally,” anito, nakangiti. He gave

    It was a manic day for Charlie. No. It was chaos spelled in all caps. She was supposed to wake up an hour ago for her scheduled appointment. But because she and Gael stayed up late yet again last night, there she was rushing to fix herself so she could run to where she’s heading to for the day. “Hey, slow down, beautiful. You’ll hurt yourself,” nakangiting sabi ni Gael sa kanya, sumandal pa sa hamba ng pinto ng walk-in closet niya—looking so handsome with just his lounge pants on and nothing else. “Go away, Gael. You know I cannot be late today,” sabi niya habang naglalagay ng sunscreen sa mukha. She’ll need lots of those sa pupuntahan niya. Gael chuckled. “Bakit, hindi ka naman late a. You still have at least an hour and a half to spare.” She scoffed and picked up her blush powder. She won’t wear her full make-up today. “An hour and a half spare that I’ll spend for travel. You know how’s Manila traffic in the morning, Gael. It’s one of the worse and I can’t afford to be late toda

    Sandaling namanhid si Gael sa kanyang nasaksihan. Panandalian niyang kinumbinsi ang sarili na imahinasyon niya lang ang lahat. Na nasa maayos na lagay si Charlie at walang kaguluhan na nangyayari sa mismong araw ng kanilang kasal. He even tried to blink a few times—willing the dreadful scenario away from his head. But when he opened his eyes, his bride, his wife still laid there on the cold ground, bleeding.With his chest constricting, he tried to stand up, wanting to go to Charlie as soon as he can. But his bodyguard nearby kept him from doing so. Anger burned his skin in an instant. He had to go Charlie and no one, not even the damn death god himself could prevent him from doing so.He turned himself onto the ground, lying on his back, and gave the bodyguard hovering over at him a straight jab to the jaw. Napaupo ito, bago siya mahilo-hilong binitiwan. He took that chance to crawl his way to Charlie, who fell near the entrance of the church. ‘I like the water, Kuya Gael. Can you t

    Kanina pa nasa harap ng salamin si Gael subalit panay pa rin ang pag-aayos niya sa kurbata ng kanyang suit. The damn thing just won’t align!Frustrated, he took it off altogether and huffed.He’s anxious for some unknown reason. Gray, who arrived last night, said at it must be the wedding jitters but he refuses to believe so. He’s just on edge because he didn’t get to see his wife and son for hours now. Sneaking in at Charlie and Levi’s hotel room crossed his mind a few times last night. With his skills as a former elite boduyguard, he could do that with no sweat involved. But his grandfather gave him a talk about keeping his word and just wait until it’s time for them to meet at the altar again. Subalit naging sobrang napakahirap niyon sa kanya dahil sa iisang hotel lang silang naka-check –in na mag-anak—just different floors.

    Lena was in the bathtub for hours now. She was watching the tiny drops of water coming out of the faucet as they join the already cold water she was soaking her body in. On the background, she can hear the news from the old TV— the dreadful news she had been hearing for her entire week now. Gael is getting married again… to his wife Charlize. When Gael broke up with her more than a month ago after he had learned about her deceit, she had always been on the run since. Her father and the authorities were after her. She cannot afford to get caught. Especially not by her father. She just knew that when her father would find her, he’ll punishher for ruining his plans. And with her state right now, she knew she'd die with just one blow. Tears fell from her eyes as her heart wracked with pain. She remembered the days when her life was better, when she had so much hope, and when she was still loved. Oh how she wished she could go back. For now, she had lost all of those and slowly losing

    “You did what?” hindi na napigilan pa ni Charlie ang magtaas ng boses dahil sa sinabi ni Tala.They were at the private office of her husband. Doon niya ito dinala upang makapag-usap silang dalawa ng pinsan nang masinsinan. Kaya lang, ilang minuto pa lang tumatakbo ang usapan nila, pakiramdam niya gusto na niyang sumuko. “I got married,” pag-uulit ni Tala. “H-he's a prince," alanganing dugtong nito, namumutla.Her eyes widened even more. Did she hear her right?"I’m sorry, what?"Tala released a slow breath. She looks flustered as she was. "Knoxx is a prince of a small country called Maritria. It’s somewhere in the Mediterranean. I don’t know more than that. I stopped my research the minute I’ve learned that his family was related to the British royals.”She paled and gasped aloud. "You married into royalty?!" she asked in disbelief, her voice a notch higher.She had always known her cousin to be troublemaker, wild like how the world put it. But Tala really outdid herself this time.

You are a fast learner just like you Dad.” Nagmamadaling lumingon si Levi kay Charlie. Her son’s eyes were sparkling with pride. “You heard that, Mommy? Grampy said I learn fast like Dadddy!” Charlie chuckled and walked over at the bed where Levi and Aksel were. She reached for her son’s cheeks and gave it a gentle pinch. “I heard that, sweetheart. Now why don’t you go with Jacob for a while and let me help Grampy with his food,” aniya. Mabilis na ibinalik ni Levi ang mata kay Aksel at nagmano sa matanda. “Bis später, Grampy! (See you later, Grampy!)” bibong sabi ni Levi bago lumabas sa silid ni Aksel. “You raised a really smart boy, Charlie,” ani Aksel nang sila na lang dalawa ang naiwan sa silid nito.

    “Here, have some coffee,” ani Charlie habang ibinababa sa harap ni Gael ang tasa ng kape na siya rin ang may gawa.Nag-angat ng tingin si Gael sa kanya. His eyes, just like the few days that have passed, was distant—gloomy. It was as if she's not there. O mas tamang sabihin na nasa iba ang isip nito. He forced a smile. “Thanks, love,” anito bago tahimik na dinala ang tasa sa bibig nito.She released a slow breath and sat on the chair in front of her husband. They were at the balcony of the Bernstein mansion. It was already late afternoon and the sun was beginning to set on the horizon. But she feels like Gael’s day was just about to start.Ito kasi ang nagbabantay sa lolo nito sa gabi. Mula nang dumating silang mag-anak sa Germany halos tatlong araw na ang nakararaan, hindi na natigil sa pag-aalala si Gael sa lolo nito. Why wouldn’t he?
