"Good morning!" Zeke enthusiastically greeted her the moment he saw her enter the kitchen.
"G-Good morning!" she replied stunned by his presence in the kitchen.
He was wearing an apron while setting the table. It looks like he just finished cooking and now preparing the food he just cooked. She never expected to see him in the kitchen because he has usually gone to work every time she woke up. She suddenly remembers that it's Saturday and he has no work in the office during weekends.
"I've cooked us breakfast. Come on, let's eat." To her surprise, he comes near her and gives her a peck on the lips.
She was stunned for a moment and stared at him, it seemed he didn't mind her reaction because the next thing she knew he pulled out a chair for her and hand her a bouquet of tulips that she doesn't know where he took from. He must have hidden it when he saw her towering down the stairs.
They tried kayaking and snorkeling that day. It was almost dark when they come back. The first thing she did when they came back to the suite is to take a bath and pamper herself in the tub. Soaked her body in warm water, spends almost an hour in the tub then shower for like fifteen minutes. She changed into a white maxi dress and let her long hair loose. She was expecting that they will have dinner at one of the restaurants near the beach but when she came out of the room, her attention was caught by the sound of a violin being played somewhere on the porch. Being intrigued, her feet brought her there, and saw Zeke waiting for her- all dressed up with his loose long sleeve cream button shirt and white capris beach pants. To her surprise, the porch was magnificently decorated for a romantic candlelight dinner with a man playing the violin and a uniformed crew holding a bottle of wine in his hands. "Hey..." she call him showing her presence trying to make herself calm and relaxed. She
When she woke up, her body was sore she couldn't even move in the bed. Her eyes roam around and realized she was not in her room. She rubbed her eyes hoping she was dreaming but she was not. Her naked body was being covered by the blanket and the sensitive part between her legs was indeed sore and a bit aching. She tried to arise in the bed but she only winced when she felt the pain down there. Her legs are still cramping and her breasts are a bit stinging especially her nipples. She pulled the blanket and cover her naked body. A gasp escaped her mouth when she saw the blood stain on the bed sheet- the evidence of what happened last night. Seeing Zeke all in his naked glory sleeping so comfortably in the bed, she couldn't help to jerk her eyes away from him. It was five o'clock in the morning, and the sun was not rising yet. She forced hersel
Her Mom's alarming voice is what she heard that awaken her from her sleep so she immediately stand up and went outside her room. The moment she went outside, she immediately notice the open door of her twin sister's room and found her Mom inside crying. She was sitting on her sister's bed holding apiece of paper. Seeing her mom's condition, she immediately attended to her to find out what's wrong. She just arrived last night from Paris to attend her sister's wedding and she don't have a slight idea what's going on."What happened Mom?" She worriedly asked."Your sister left." She stated in an alarming voice.Not too long ago, she saw her Dad panting from running immediately enter the room to check on her Mom as well. The moment her Mom saw her father, she started to wail and cry harder."What's wrong Jemilia?" Her father's upset voice confronted."Gerardo! Maria Alexandra left! She r
Inhaling the fresh breeze of air on the window of the bus felt so refreshing and calming while the sun rays slightly squinting her eyes. Compared to the fast-paced urban life, the sound of horns of vehicles in the streets, the stress and traffic roads in the city, it just felt so relaxing feeding her mind and body with this changing environment. The familiar sweet refreshing smell of trees and meadows and the combination smell of damp moss and wildflowers filling her nostrils was so heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. How could she ever forget the smell of home? The place she used to grow and the place she left behind for a new life. After staying for almost 8 years in France, she finally decided to come home and visit her hometown. She was afraid to come home but her sister is expecting her to attend and be a part of the most special event of her life. Last month, she just send her the invitation to her wedding day with a message that she was expecting her to come home
Standing a few steps away from the gate of the mansion after hopping down the taxi made her eyes teary. She inhaled deeply as a warm and excited smile drew her lips the moment she walked through the electric iron gate of the mansion. The gate automatically opened the moment she was recognized by the guards inside through the security camera and one of the guards immediately came closer to greet her she guessed."Senorita Alexa? Why aren't you riding you're car?" Mr. Stevens, the long-time guard of the mansion immediately helps her take her baggage that puts up a smile on her lips. Until now the old man couldn't identify who's who between her and her twin sister Alexa."I guess you have forgotten me already Mr. Stevens? Should I be sad you mistook me again from my twin sister?" She stated pretending to be disappointed."S-Senorita A-Alejandra! Is that you?" Surprised and happiness automatically radiated on the old man's face."The one and
Alexa ushers her to her room after dinner. What touches her heart is when she noticed her room hadn't changed a bit. It's like she hasn't left the room for eight long years. Her paintings, closet, books and left sketch pads, the bed, and even her favorite floral bed sheet and blanket. Everything was exactly the same arrangement as she left before. While scanning her room, floods of memories came rushing through her mind from her childhood to her teenage days. How her Mom used to tuck her in at night before bedtime, how Alexa sneaked into her room in the middle of the night every time she had bad dreams then steal her bed and how she hide in her room and paint on her verandah every time she was sad especially at times she got scolded by her Dad."I'm glad nothing's changed in my room." She told Alexa."Mom always sees to it that your room was always clean. She never stops hoping you will come back soon. I hope you came home for good n
Her Mom's alarming voice is what awakened her from sleep that morning so she immediately arises in the bed and went outside her room. The moment she went outside, she immediately notice the open door of her twin sister's room which is next to her room, and found her Mom sitting on her sister's bed holding a piece of paper while crying. Seeing her mom's condition, she immediately attended to her to find out what was wrong."What happened Mom?" She worriedly asked."Your sister left, Andra!" Her Mom stated in an alarming voice."What do you mean left? Are you sure, Ma?""I tried to check on her this morning and I found this letter on her bed." Her mom started to sobbed again that alarmed her.It's her sister's wedding today and based on her strange and anxious reaction last night, it only justifies that she really run away because she got pressured on this wedding.Not too long ago, she saw her Dad panting from ru
Her heart is thumping very fast as she felt her knees trembling in nervousness. This is the moment she feared to happen, the start of her misery- her wedding day. How she wished that the ground will open and just swallow her to death. She would rather choose that than marry a stranger and doesn't know what might be the future she will lead from now on.According to her Mom, she will marry Ezekiel Saldivar, the grandson and heir of the multi-millionaire business tycoon Don Juancho Saldivar. Don Juancho Saldivar is the best friend of her late grandfather Bienvenido Hernandez and the promised wedding was supposed to be between their children. Since they were both blessed with an only child and both were sons, they decided to pass the agreement to their grandchild. When her grandfather passed away, the agreement has been void and Don Juancho never insisted on the arranged marriage since then. But when their company got into big financial trouble, her Dad

It has been a very busy and tiring day. Friday is one of the normal days she often chooses to volunteer in charity events, she manages to do it twice a month as much as possible. Feeding program and relief giving for the people impacted by typhoon Vinta was held at the center that day. The activity went well and it's a good thing they manage to give enough food and grocery bags for the victims. Helping and participating in this kind of event makes her feel worthwhile as a human being so she never lets an opportunity pass whenever she has time to participate. After bidding goodbye to her colleagues, she was about to leave when she caught the sudden presence of Zeke in the parking lot leaning on his Lamborghini car."What are you doing here?" She told him."Isn't it obvious wife? I'm picking you up." He replied with that attractive smirk he usually give her.She would understand if his Mom was around unlike the first time he pick her up but she was not
After the night they had dinner at her parent's house, she started avoiding Zeke. He goes out early for work and she wakes up in the morning without him but often prepares her breakfast which he doesn't usually do. She try busying herself by volunteering in charity events and finding inspiration to start new paintings to avoid him so they can seldom see each other but she always failed because he often come home early in the evening. His kind and caring treatment was still there and he had been acting this odd since the last time they had dinner in her parent's house. She was fine with them not eating together before but it's kinda odd because he always comes home early and eats dinner with her. She has a feeling he is intentionally doing it. She realized that the more she avoids him, the more he makes efforts to be with her.During dinner is the time they usually see each other but today, she never expected him to come home ear
He could still remember their first night in the hacienda when they needed to share a room in his parent's house. He has to admit he got mesmerized when he saw her wearing a skimpy nightie. He drool over her sexy cleavage and slender pair of legs so he resorted to teasing and upsetting her. She was cute when mad and when her cheeks are flushing, he finds her even more attractive.Being a jerk, he conceals that attraction to anger and violence so he ends up drastically grabbing and kissing her fully on the lips. She tried stopping and pushing him but he kept on kissing her roughly trying to punish her, trying to intimidate her. Tasting her lips was like being fall and lost in a deep trance he couldn't seem to stop. They were so addicting he can't get enough of them. He must admit he had gone too much so when she pushed him hard to get away from him, he got stunned as if he lost himself for a moment. He didn't know what went to hi
It was a marriage for convenience, alright. He never want this from the very start but he was left with no choice. It was actually a promised wedding that was supposed to be between the descendant of his grandfather and his best friend Bienvenido Saavedra. Since the two were both blessed with an only child and both were sons, they decided to pass the agreement to their grandchild. When Don Buenvenido Saavedra passed away, his grandfather void the agreement and never try to insist on the arranged marriage since his dear friend was gone already. But when Don Gerardo Saavedra's Company got into big financial trouble, he use that agreement to gain help from his grandpa. Feeling pleased his grandpa never hesitated to promise help just as long the arranged marriage will happen and the two families will finally unite.He was against of this marriage but his grandfather manipulate him by using his inheritance as a threat. Not that he was scared to get poor,
Since he was young, he has become aware that he will be fixed to be married to a chosen woman for her. It was actually a promised wedding that has been long overdue between the two families involved. His late father and his grandfather never failed to keep on reminding him of that as he grows old. When he reached his teens and started to get interested in women, he never got into a serious relationship not until he met Nicole Saltzman. Nicole is a smart and very attractive woman. She was practical and confident. She was this type of girl who knows what she wants in life and knows how to get them. She used to be a flight attendant at a big Airline Company that is owned by his friend and he met her on one of his friend's private planes and started to flirt with her at first. It started with a one-night stand and then it followed with another and another. She had told him his dream to be a model until a talent scout found her and offered her to be her manager. She is an ambitious and care
"You're not close with your Dad aren't you?" she heard him ask when they were at the car. Surprised, she never thought that he was that very observant of her situation a while ago. "You were uncomfortable and silent all the time. Are you always like that whenever you were with your family?" Annoyance and bitterness crept inside her chest because he hit the right spot. Not in the mood to explain or weave a lie, she managed to be silent and disregard his questions. "Why are letting them treat you that way?" Is she not mistaken? Is she hearing a tone of concern in his voice? With this man, how come it seems like he knew what she feels and seems like he's very attentive to her demeanor? Knowing him, he should have been insulting her because he saw another flaw in her not this way he was acting like he's worried and concerned about her feelings. "They were my parents, you want me to talk back and disrespect them?" she replied sarcastically. "You know that's not what I'm trying to s
