"You really don't want to come with me?" Yael repeatedly asked Kate who had not been paying attention to him."I said, I don't wan---" Kate faced him pissed but halted when she noticed what he was holding.Is he planning to---Yael smiled sheepishly when she noticed Kate's reaction. I knew it!"Are you going to catch a fish?" Kate exclaimed. She ran up to him, but he just shrugged and turned his back on her."What else?" Yael asked, holding the fishing rod as if to state the obvious.Kate rushed after him, clutching his arms. "You should have told me earlier!" Kate kept grinning.Yael frowned. "I've been asking you…""Yeah! But you didn't inform me right away!""So, it's my fault now?""Well… Of course!"Yael shrugged his arms and walked fast, leaving Kate behind.Why is he sulking?"Hey! Don't leave me here! I'm coming with you!" Kate dashed after him, grabbing his arms once more. "May I join you?" she inquired sweetly."...""I'm coming with you!""...""I'll accompany you!""...""
"R-Rescuers?"Kate was finally able to decipher what was written on their shirts. "A-Are they here for me?!" She looked up at Yael, her voice tinged with excitement.Yael, on the other hand, firmly gripped her hand. He looked so serious. He kept looking intently at the rescuers arriving with a hint of dismay until his eyes fell on a familiar figure.As the rescuers finally stepped foot on the island, Yael's eyes fell on their companion who was running toward them. Without waiting for him to speak, he already asked, "Who are they, Carlos?"Carlos trembled as he heard the irritation in Yael's voice. He quickly stepped forward and answered, "They're looking for someone, Sir Yael!" Carlos assumed that Yael was irritated because he hated being disturbed on the island. H
I have to… Kate felt her weight getting heavier as she walked toward the rescue boat that had been waiting for her. You must do what is right. She talked to herself as she sighed heavily. She didn’t know what to do. Not really, she actually knew. She needed to fix the mess she created and must be responsible for the consequences of her actions. She just didn’t know where to start and the deep gaze she felt from behind didn't help her to decide at all. It seemed to pierce through her like a thousand sharp needles, reminding her of the happy events that had unfolded on the island that she was about to leave behind, for an unknown exact reason, she was about to know. She took a deep breath, trying to compose herself. With each step she took, the sa
Hope?Kate's heart raced as she desperately turned around until her eyes finally landed on the owner of that voice. “K-Kael?”Standing right in front of her was a man who exuded an air of undeniable handsomeness, arrogance, and dominance. It was a combination that both admired and repelled her at the same time. The intensity of his presence made her pulse quicken, and she couldn't help but wonder if he was the man she married. Questions flooded her mind like a torrential downpour, leaving her feeling both apprehensive and intrigued.He looked familiar.Funny! Kate wanted to laugh at herself. He was her husband, but it was the only time that they met. Suppressing her thoughts, she decided to wait for him to approach her and
“I heard that before…” Kate whispered. She remembered those times when she was easily duped to marry him. She once believed them.“I understand, Hope. It’s not that I don’t want to let you go, but I also don’t have a choice.” Kael leaned on the chair with his arms crossed. Seeing her confused look, he added, “We need to remain married, Hope. This will benefit us both.”Kate was perplexed. Her brow furrowed with a mix of surprise and curiosity.“You filed a divorce when you learned that my parents were already dead. I assume it was because you thought that their promise would not be fulfilled, right?”Kate absentmindedly nodded as she waited for him to continue.
“Deal?” Kate’s seriousness was replaced by a mischievous grin as she asked Kael. Her left eyebrow was even raised.Kael’s lips curved into a smile. It’s not really her request that arose his interest. He was already expecting that. It’s the thought that she volunteered to help him convince his brother. His gaze fell down on Kate’s hand waiting for his handshake. She’s so confident. “Deal.” He accepted her hand and squeezed it. Let’s see…“So…”“Hmmm?”“When are you planning to invite him over? Why don’t you invite him
Target spotted! A triumphant smile appeared on Kate's lips when she saw what she had been searching for since she entered the place. The loud music was blaring inside the city's most exclusive nightclub, along with the giggles of women in various parts of the venue. Pairs were dancing naughtily and sexily to the rhythm of the loud music while drowning themselves in liquor. Others were rubbing their bodies against each other but she remained in the corner, leaning on her seat with a glass of tequila in her left hand. Her bright and seductive eyes were fixed on the man who was gloomy and was like carrying the world. There were a lot of men who tried to get her attention but none of them succeeded except for the man at the table next to her. He seemed to be not used to drinking alone in that kind of setting. However, his look could not be compared to the other men drinking inside that club. He looked rugged. His shoulder-length curly hair was in a messy tied knot that gave him a hotter
"Yes. Moan louder for me, baby." His seductive voice put Kate on her edge. Her mouth parted open, her grip on the sheet tightened, and sweat already covered her body as she moan loudly while being fucked by his fingers senselessly. Her hips were already in the air trying to mimic his fingers' movement. "Ah…! Ahh...! Yes!" Kate had no idea where to twist and turn. His thumb was caressing her clitoris, massaging and rubbing it while his two other fingers were pumping in and out of her harshly. The sound of his finger pumping inside her added to Kate's ecstasy. It was so hot. It was very pleasurable. She was catching her breath already when her muscles tightened. She's nearing her release. After another hard pound of his finger, her eyes rolled back in pleasure. “Ahhh… Fuck!" She screamed as her orgasm shook her whole being. Her legs trembled and weakly fell to the bed. She was too tired. She closed her eyes to compose her breathing. She lost count of how many times he brought

This ain't right…A heavy sigh broke the deafening silence inside the presidential office of the highest skyscraper in Houston. He stood tall, facing the floor-to-ceiling window, but his gaze was elsewhere, oblivious to the beautiful sight of the entire city glistening in the night, mirroring the night sky that was shining brightly due to the million stars.His hands were clenched inside his pockets. His coat was disheveled, and so was his hair. His brow furrowed, and his eyes were lost. A glimpse of a man, who has not slept yet for the whole night. Taking another heavy breath, he turned and walked toward his table. He halted in front of the scattered documents. The reports that were given to him the other day. His gaze was drawn to the woman he had never met before. His jaw tightened as he witnessed her intimate relationship with the man he knew so well.He massaged his temples as he gazed up at the ceiling.What should I do?He closed his eyes tightly, as his mind flew with the w
Lip locked. Tongue intertwined. Body pressed against each other.It seemed that they had forgotten where they were.Yael started to roam his left hand on Kate's body. Caressing every skin that it touched. While his right hand was still on her waist, pulling her closer to his body. Their wet shirt and the cold from the waterfalls didn’t dissipate the building of desire within.Kate moaned inside his lips, making both of their temperatures increase. She felt suffocated and unsure, that’s why she pulled out. Her eyes stared at Yael's burning gaze with unconscious desire and confusion. She was catching her breath with her swollen parted lips.Yael could not get enough of her. Her parted lips and hot breath that could reach his face made him want to claim her lips again. So he did. With his eyes closed and an uncontrollable heartbeat beating incredibly fast, he held her face gently. He licked her lips. He bit and played with her tongue. He sucked it. He yearned for something that would enr
"You're so lucky to have a place like this." Kate commented as she floated her body in the water. Her eyes were so drawn to the blue sky that her smile never faded. She inhaled deeply before she closed her eyes, savoring the fresh air and listening to the sounds of nature. "It's so relaxing." Yael kept an eye on her. Her calm demeanor put his mind at ease. "This used to be our family's vacation spot."Kate's eyes snapped open. "You didn't own this place?"Yael nodded. Smile appeared on his lips as he looked away reminiscing. "It was owned by an elderly couple, and we usually rented it for vacation. Every summer break, we came here for relaxation. It became our family sanctuary, and we made many memories away from the city.""Then, how did you own this?" Kate inquired. She was well aware that with such beauty, the entire island would be prohibitively expensive."I bought it," Yael chuckled. "I guess," he said, his eyes shining with pride. "It took a lot of persuasion to get the owner'
