Testing each other
"W-what are you doing Mr— hm..." Lia hadn't finished what she had to say when Ethan immediately pressed a kiss to her lips.
Lia is trying to escape from his hold and lips. But, Ethan didn't let her escape that easily.
"I know you're looking at me. it's obvious Kim Lianne Zambrano." Ethan huskily utters after kissing her lips intensely.
Lia swallowed as her heart beat loudly.
Lia's eyelashes quivered beautifully while looking at Ethan's dark and foggy eyes. She was thinking while looking at each other.
'Why not use him? Hm... Right. Anyway, I thought of this as my plan before. Now, I think it's my chance to do everything so I can get revenge on my stepmother and sister, especially Mildred!' Lia thought.
"T-to my place, or yours?" suddenly, Lia asks desperately but the truth is that she is nervous about her plan.
However, Ethan shook his head. "You're not my type either."
"Huh?" Lia suddenly blushed and was suddenly embarrassed by him. "I'm not your type? Really, Mr. Lopez? But you know, it's very obvious the way you kissed me intensely. You have a desire for me and I can feel it because you're not going to kiss me all of a sudden, right?" Lia also smiled at him even though she was slightly embarrassed.
He moved a little away from her then poured wine into a glass and handed it to her, and he still holding the bottle. "I'm going to marry your step-sister, Mildred," Ethan said.
She heaves a sigh. She suddenly felt disappointed. She didn't understand why he was feeling that way.
What a shit! Why do I feel this kind of feeling against this bastard? Why? What a joke! I don't like it!
Lia reached for her liquor and gulped it all immediately. Suddenly the very strong wine sloshed down his throat. She lowered the wine glass and looked into Ethan's eyes while grinning at him.
"So, do I care?"
Ethan shrugged and didn't say anything else.
Lia took a bottle with no reduction and opened it. "Cheers, Mr. Lopez. Let us celebrate your engagement to that freak woman!"
"She's not a freak, Lia," Ethan said.
"And what is she to you? A saint, angel, kind or respectable woman? Oh, come on, Ethan." She smirked at him and gulped down the strong wine from the bottle. "Come on, drink yours."
Ethan stared at Lia with sharp eyes. "Mildred is kind. You just don't see it because you've hated her since you were kids."
"It's a useless conversation, eh?" She stood up and faced him. "Maybe I already paid for your free wine, right?" She asked him. "I'll leave you now, and congratulations for marrying your dearest Mildred, soon. Bye, nice talking..."
Lia had only taken two steps when someone stopped her arm.
"You're not going anywhere, woman. You're drunk and you can't drive home alone," he said when she faced him.
"I can!" She moved her arm away from him and she pushed his hand.
"Lia!"
"Will you stay away, Ethan? I can manage myself alone. Just stay away from me!" Lia snorted hostility.
She turned her back on him and stepped forward even though she was already dizzy from the kinds of alcohol she drank that night.
'Well, thanks to you, Ethan Lopez, for making me drunk tonight.'
Lia gasped when another arm stopped her from walking again.
"I'll take you home."
"You're also drunk. I won't depend on you for my life tonight because, like you, I will also get married and build my own family." Lia said in her drunkenness.
Ethan's eyes suddenly turned dark and cold as he heard it. "I'm not drunk like you. Don't be such a stubborn woman, I'll Drive you home. I'm doing this because you're Mildred's step-sister."
"The fuck of you! You really have no taste, huh? You still like Mildred, who is full of plasticity. In fact, I don't know what kind of personality you have. I think the two of you really match. The same, thick face. I hate the type of person like that. So, leave me alone. May you and your Mildred be together in hardships and comforts until your death!"
Ethan gritted his teeth. "Don't think because I'll take you, then you're my type. Stop dreaming, because I will never like you. I'm just testing you right now, Lia. Do you hear me?"
Lia suddenly stopped talking and fighting. She also stopped moving.
'Fuck! W-what? He's just testing me?'
Lia clenched her fists.
'Huh, you're just testing me huh? Then let me test you too. Your plan is to test, huh...'
"Alright, if you really insist on driving me home, then let's go. Just bring me home safe." Lia said stopping herself from bursting her anger.
Lia agreed to let Ethan take her to her condo.
Because of his insulting and what he said, she was also challenged suddenly.
'Tonight, let me also test you, Ethan Lopez. Let's see which of the two of us will win!' Lia thought to herself.
Lia pretended to be dizzy and fell down when they were inside her unit. At that time, she had to act to prove the pretense for him to believe her.
"Hey, Lia, are you okay?" Ethan asks her while holding her in his arms.
She shook her head while acting dizzy. She leaned on his chest. "I'm feeling very dizzy, Ethan."
"Where's your room?"
She pointed the left room. He let her in there while supporting her as they walked.
When they are inside her room, she suddenly kisses him strongly and violently on the lips. She also slowly runs her hands through his board chest and down to his length.
Ethan feels her playful hand on his shaft. Suddenly, he responded because of Lia's daring act.
"Kiss me back, Ethan..." Lia's hoarse and sexy voice whispers.
Ethan's eyes turned dark and gloomy at what she did. "Lia, stop it!" he said dangerously.
Lia winked and kissed him again on the lips. Her lips went down to Ethan's Adam's apple while his hand was still caressing his shaft.
"Lia..." Ethan's voice gradually lost its hardness at that time.
"Yes..." Lia's voice was flirting with him.
Until Ethan's avoidance completely disappeared. Until she feels his responding to her kisses and her warmest touch.
Ethan just moaned when Lia ran over his upper body after Lia pushed him onto the bed that was there.
Lia swallowed hard when they both continuously kissed each other.
Until Lia realized what she had started and doing. She also realized that Ethan was opening the buttons of her clothes one by one.
Lia stopped his hand, and Ethan suddenly frowned.
"N-no... I... I am also testing you," Lia said, but she couldn't smile because she was nervous about what was happening.
"Testing me?" Ethan instantly feels angry and insulted. He clenched his jaw and suddenly she pulled Lia. He undressed her body and then kissed her lips again.
Lia just closed her eyes. She didn't push him away, nor did she respond to his kiss. Until she moaned when he slightly bit her lower lip.
Lia slowly opened her eyes. They both stared at each other. Lia swallowed and at that time she was the one who voluntarily converted and kissed his reddened lips.
First timeEthan and Lia are both drunk. They both lost their senses. They both forgot, and both liked what was going on that night, even though it was clear they were just trying to please each other. Everything that happens also conforms to the wishes of their heated bodies.But giving herself to him is not really Lia's main plan. It was because of the fragility of both, Ethan and her that night.When both of them were already totally naked, and ready. Ethan looked at Lia. And Lia's eyelashes quivered in nervousness."E-Ethan..." She swallowed when she could feel Ethan's gradual process of bringing their bodies together."I will enter now, Lia." he huskily said and thrust it without any hesitations."Ethan! Ugh!" Lia gritted her teeth when she finally felt the pain when Ethan directly pushed his hardness into her tight entrance."You are—""Ugh!" Lia closed her eyes tightly and the pain of Ethan's first attack on her womanhood enveloped her entire body."L-Lia... You?"Lia's eyes wi
Consequences"What is happening here!!!"That rumbling voice awakened Lia's sleeping spirit. When her eyes opened she saw her father inside her apartment room. He is very ready to attack at that time."You bastard!" finally, her father moved quickly to the side of the bed."D-Dad!" Lia nervously called her father. She also tightened her grip on the white blanket that covered her nakedness."U-Uncle Fred. I-I can explain—""Explain what?!" her Daddy's fist suddenly punched on the smooth face of the person next to Lia on the bed. He could not avoid a strong blow from his father.Lia immediately wrapped her naked body. She even winced when she felt a sharp pain and pain between her thighs."Fred!" Aunt Avet, Lia's father's second wife. She screamed when she saw her and Ethan lying next to each other on the bed while wrapped in a white blanket. Of course, it was obvious that they were both naked under it. Her eyes widened in shock."Account for what you did to this daughter of mine, Ethan
Her HusbandLianne is worriedly waiting for her husband, Ethan. She knew he would come home drunk again. How many times has he come late at night, almost every night. And, of course, she knew very well why.'What should I expect? Nothing right? He is very angry with me. This is also my fault. Between the two of us, I'm the only one to blame for this and not him.'Ethan is very angry, he even cursed her to death when she dragged him into that situation. She messes with his life, and in return he makes her suffer.'How long will he blame me? How long will I put up with him? Did I do it right to myself? Is it right for us to tie ourselves to each other? How long are we like this? I am also tired even though we have just started our married life.'She immediately stood up when she suddenly heard a knock outside the door.She sighed when she looked at the clock. It's already 01:30 in the morning. It was his usual time to come home."E-Ethan.." He approached him and supported him."Oh. The
BoringLia bit her lower lip and gasped. He just let it go and moaned loudly because of his careless touching and kissing on her different parts of the body. Even if she objected, Ethan just ignored her and continued with what he was doing."Move on top of me now, Lia! Make sure I'll enjoy your every move. Now!" he snorted at her as he took off his slacks and boxers that he was wearing.Lia swallowed hard, she feels weak against him, she wants to cry and beg him not to do it, but she refrains from crying and making her beg in front of him."E-Ethan...." Lia was just surprised when he suddenly pulled her hips and immediately inserted his lively manhood inside her. "Ugh...!" Lia grimaced due to the intense pain attacking her insides and closed her eyes to stop crying because of the pain."What's wrong Lianne, move your hips now!" He said when it was completely inside her.Lia feels pain in her lower body, and inside her feminine. She gasped and gritted her teeth.His lips covered her bre
Not Easy"Are you also mixing the food I prepared with your anger towards me? Look, I'm just trying to please you but you are so mean to me!"Ethan stopped walking and turned to look at her. "It's simple. I don't want to eat the food you made, and I don't want to sit and eat with you! Eat if you want. It might even be my fault if you become so skinny. Remember, your father will get mad at me. So you better eat!""How much do you hate me? Tell me, what should I do to get rid of your hatred?" Lia continues, she feels devastated."Stop pretending as if you are hurting and sorry. It really irritated me! Stop the drama, Lia, because that won't work for me anymore!" Ethan said not looking at her."A-alright. I-I'm not going to complain about how you make me feel. But, Ethan, I have a limit to this tolerance. And now, I will tell you this. I am not that easy to coax!""Even if your patience has a limit. You still can't escape what you did to me, Lia. You should pay for the manipulation that y
Back to Work 1When Lia was done with all the emails she had to check, she was about to go out to see if her friends were there.She opened the door and BOOM.Her Malditah friends surprised her, they even used confetti to welcome her back. She smiles genuinely and she is really touched."WELCOME BACK..." They all shouted, which almost deafened Lia's ears.Her MALDITAH friends even had a welcome short dance in front of her. And of course, they also pulled her to dance with them.Lia really misses them so much. It's their friendship that she misses so much during her two-month vacation.When they finished dancing as friends, they approached one by one, hugged and kissed her on the cheek."Hi, Queen of Beauty, good morning, and welcome back to our Malditah's Group. Here, take this. It's for our godchild, baby girl or baby boy is fine. But I hope it's twins." Summer smiled at her as she placed something in her palm.She just shook her head when she saw the baby pink and sky blue mini cutie
Back to work 2The three smiled and came closer and hugged her. She felt their tight embrace on her.Her heart is happy with what her three friends love for her. At least now she can really feel real laughter and fun, as well as having a sensible person to talk to. Because within two months, she can say that she really suffered and she also feels more stressed. She was really stressed and no one knew about it but only herself.How she missed her best friends. When she was on leave, she really wanted to pull the clock just to finish the vacation that they gave to her. It's mandatory no work, No-communication, No-visiting, No-conversation, and No what so ever... These three are so very crazy that they didn't feel she was very upset.The three of them happily ate and continued bonding in her office; they devoured all the food on their plate while they were laughing out loud at her friend's funny random stories and incidents when she was not in their office."I hope the other one over ther
Back to work 3"Ouch, Lia..." Roxy complained but smiled. Because she's pointing at the tuxedo that she sketches, and her friend's index finger is pointing at the part in the middle of the manhood."Lia. Is that thing really good? I'm just curious because, you know, no man has already popped my cherry yet." There was a grumble in her friend's voice."Hey. Don't you have any shame, Roxy Barbara? Where did you learn that shit, hmmm...?" Lia said frowning.Roxy playfully smirks. "Tsk, just tell me a little story about it, so I can prepare myself. Just give me some tips on what the style and move should be." Roxy still didn't stop."Stop with your private topic Roxy. Do some research if you really want to learn about it. Just find out alone, I don't want to talk about lewdness, okay?" Lia blushed and felt ashamed."This is no longer a joke..." Roxy said while grinning."You're really being silly, Roxy." She was shaking her head and smiling.When they arrived at KRAS MALDITAH RESTAURANT, t
Sudden comeback"Liz, have many employees been added in Malditah? Some of them are not familiar with me." Lia asked her assistant when they were inside the elevator."Yes, Ma'am. More than hundreds of employees have been added since you left. Then starting on Monday, the first batch of newly hired people from our Garments Factory will come in, which is around 50 people."Lia was amazed at what she heard. "Wow, really? Is our company that big now?"She nodded smiling. "Aside from that, KRAS Malditah organized a Big Fashion Show Event on Sunday. All of your new works, Ma'am Kim will be featured there. The theme is 'Lia Malditah Summer's Creation' The Cutting of Ribbon has also been held on the newly expanded floors of this building and the other building. It's a double celebration, Ma'am Kim, that's why everyone is busy preparing for that big night. There are also many guests. Such Celebrities, Fashion Models, even Local Models, and also politicians. There's also a huge press to feature
The Owner"Mommy, where are we going?" Lia glanced at Khianna who was next to her and sitting in the baby car seat."We are going to visit your crazy godmothers, baby." She answered while carefully driving.Khianna's eyes widened. "Godmother Roxy, Mommy?""Yeah, baby, and also your godmother Ayesha and godmother Summer.""Yeay. Godmother, Godmother. I will see my Godmothers..." Khianna was clapping and smiling at Lia.They were not with Tina at that time because she had already taken a vacation to their province. Mother Norma and Sister Lita were there to look after Khianna while she was busy. Also, Khianna was able to adjust for three days with new acquaintances and with them at home. Vina is also there every afternoon because there is a summer class every morning. She presented to take care of Khianna while Tina was on vacation so that Lia wouldn't have any problems with her daughter when she was busy with her errands."We're here, baby." Lia stopped right in front of the Malditah bu
Reconciliation"Shh..." Lia's arms had a thought of their own, and she hugged her stepmother. "L-let's forget about the past Aunt Avet," she said. "Let us start moving on. A-as long as the important thing right now is that we let out our grudges with each other. Let's start a new beginning for my sister Chloe and especially Daddy Fred. Let's not give him a headache, okay?"Tearfully, Avet nodded to her, while Lia's eyes were wet as she stared at her."Thank you, Lia. Thank you so much and I'm so sorry again.""I'm sorry too, Aunt Avet. A-also forgive me for my rudeness against you." She warmly smiled and embraced her.No more long conversations and discussions happened. Lia and her stepmother Avet settle their matters very quickly. After 16 years of misunderstanding with each other, they settled. Even though everything was too late on each other's side, at least the tangle between them was resolved.Sorry... It was really a simple word but it gathered deep meanings. That is also the o
And The Hospital 2"W-what? W-what's wrong? What did dad's mean?" Lia asked Avet in surprise and confusion."Lia, I don't know anything about your father's business. I am just his plain housewife. Believe me. I don't know anything." Her soft words answer Lia.Lia sighed. "Okay, I'll call his lawyer."Avet smiled at her. "A-are you in a hurry to go home, Lia?"Lia raised her eyebrows. "Why are you asking?"She bowed as if ashamed. Everything she does and speaks softly is all new to Lia. And wait, why is there no trace of her first-born daughter's presence in the hospital?'After all, Dad is not her real father. So, why does she care about Dad's condition? Maybe she's too focused on her family with the child of my ex-husband.' Lia thought."I-I just wanted to talk to you deeply, Lia?" Lia raised her eyebrows again. "I-it was about your anger towards me, and Mildred.""And what about it?" Lia sneered."I-I would like to apologize to you. Please forgive me, Lia. I didn't mean to alienate y
And The Hospital 1When Lia arrived at the Hospital, she immediately asked the nurse in the reception area for her Father's hospital room number. When she already had it, she hurried to go to his room.Lia felt the tension enveloped her in every step she made. She was nervous about whatever she would encounter or see inside her Father's room.She sighed heavily when she was already in front of her father's private room. Her heart beat faster but she braced herself before knocking on the closed door.Lia slowly opened the door. She swallowed hard and her heart was gradually crushed by what his eyes saw."D-daddy..." Lia's tears immediately fell.His father looked at Lia and the other people who were in the same room."C-child. L-Lia..." her daddy tried to raise his arm in her direction.Lia moved forward to her father's side and she immediately reached out to his hands. "Daddy.." she squeezed and hugged her father's weak arm. "Daddy, I miss you. I'm so sorry that I only came home now.
Potche"Go, child, I think your daddy will be happy because you finally came home too. Don't worry about your daughter's child; I'm here to check on her, too.""Thank you, mother Norma." Lia weakly smiles. "I miss you, all of you here.""You too, we miss you so much, Lia. I thank you and finally go home.""Because it's necessary. But I really have a plan. After Khianna's 2nd Birthday, I would go home. But this happened; I can't sleep, and I can't think properly because I am so worried about Dad.""Tragedy, daughter, is that you don't know when it will happen. Sometimes you'll just be shocked because something happens that you didn't fully expect. But don't worry, daughter, because everything really happens and God has a plan. God will not give you such thoughts and problems if you cannot overcome them. See, you're home now and your daddy is doing well."Lia nodded to Mother Norma in agreement."Don't be sad, Lia. Your daddy is still strong. We all know that he will overcome his illnes
New HomeLia's chest suddenly skipped a beat when she heard that last name. She never knew her uncle booked them in that Travel Agency. That's because her aunt and family didn't know the full name of Lia's ex-husband.She heaves a sigh.'The airport owned by this family must be too big for us to meet on my first day back here in the country, right? I know, he's the one who managed this business. So, I hope, I won't meet him that same day here... I hope...'Khianna is already awake, and when she wakes up, her daughter really likes to hug Lia and squeeze in her arms.'Welcome back to me. And welcome to the country my dear little Princess Khianna.' Lia whispers while embracing her daughter in her arms.A sultry atmosphere immediately greeted them as soon as they stepped out of the plane. Tina is carrying Khianna while Lia impatiently waits for their luggage in the arrival area. She rushes all the staff to take care of their luggage. That's because she didn't want to stay in that place fo
Going back homeIt's been three days since Lia heard that horrible bad news. Her aunt spilt what happened to her father, and that prompted Lia to return home to the Philippines as soon as possible.Her supposed next two and a half months plans are already cancelled, and it's moved to a very early flight. That's because Lia's father needs her and her help.Lia's heart ached and, broke into pieces the moment she heard the bad news. She was restless and unable to sleep with each passing hour and day.So she immediately took care of all the papers to facilitate her return home with her daughter and Tina. Lia is not leaving the country without Khianna's with her. So the processing of her daughter's papers took a while.Thanks to her uncle Arnold and to his friend who's working in the Government. If not, she might have to wait two weeks or more before they can leave Canada.One of Lia's concerns was resigning from her job at Cosmo la' Creation. Even if the management didn't approve and agree
Something Wrong"My goodness. Did you and Marcus really have a past? Uh-huh, so my instincts are really pretty right?" Ayesha said that something clicked in her mind. "I remembered you were like a cat and dog in the past years. And also, I really sensed something was going on. I just didn't pay much attention because Lia left and I became very busy.""Hey. Will you stop this nonsense topic, ladies? I don't know anything about what you're talking about." Roxy said trying to avoid their questions. "I want to talk to Khianna, not any of you." She added."Hey, tell us. Why don't you want to tell a story even if it's just a few hints?" Lia said and eyed Roxy."What am I supposed to tell you? That's what I hate about you, girls. You immediately give false meanings to everything you notice and see. Is it really forbidden to joke now?" Roxy clicked her tongue and shook her head.Lia stopped talking to the three when a woman who served the food ordered by Lia approached. After a while, Khanna a
