2024-10-29 19:42:56I was well aware of the fact that I was a ticking time bomb, harboring emotions that could explode and cause harm to those around me. That's why I chose not to reveal my true feelings to anyone. It was okay because, in the grand scheme of things, my emotions didn't really matter.
Then Hector entered the picture, claiming me as his wife in a whirlwind of events. I couldn't pinpoint exactly when or how it happened, but it felt like it had disappeared as quickly as it had appeared. Maybe it was because of everything that had occurred.
And now, he was back to being cold, despite constantly expressing how much he missed me.
"I can't believe you really knew each other. How? He's the one I was referring to earlier as the most handsome of the five who just came home from another country," said Erika who remained to stare at

My heart sank upon hearing his words. It was as though I had been jolted awake, and I turned to him, my emotions a swirling tempest within me. Was this pain I felt in my heart?Hector, with his cold eyes, gazed back at me, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips."But I think that's too much to ask for. You intended to file for it, didn't you? Yet you left. Do you still want to go through with it?"His questions were directed at me, but he didn't wait for my response. He turned away and continued, "In that case, you probably need money, but you don't have enough of it... I need an assistant. The salary, I believe, is adequate and fair. I'll hire you, and your first day is tonight. Come with me."Before I could protest or question his proposition, he walked away, leavin

In a flurry of emotions, I slapped my palm against my forehead. His words left me reeling, unsure how to process them. Why did he have to be so blunt? Doesn't he understand the art of subtlety, or even posing his inquiries indirectly?I nervously chewed on my lower lip, trying to craft a suitable response. Uncertainty still clouded my thoughts. Why...?To Unknown NumberPlease, stop bothering me.After hitting 'send,' I turned to Elena, who was engrossed in her phone. In a sudden change, her focus shifted to me, catching me off guard."Have you seen this yet?" Her grave tone made me furrow my brow. Before I could respond, she moved closer, displaying her phone.A

I couldn't pinpoint the exact moment it all began. The grip around my waist loosened without my notice, causing my heart to race even faster. I attempted to put some distance between us, feeling like I was running out of air, yet his kiss only intensified. His labored breathing, our combined heavy breaths in the midst of the silent night, were gradually but surely making me feel raw and vulnerable."H-Hector..." I murmured as we briefly parted. The weakness in my knees led me to lean against his chest. "W-why are you here?"As I struggled to catch my breath, I met his gaze. His widened eyes locked onto mine. The way he bit his lower lip added to his allure. Captivating... his intense, slightly intoxicated gaze seemed to drown out any sensible thoughts. I couldn't help but wonder if this was always my reaction every time he claimed my lips.

"You seem to love wearing skirts like this, don't you? I don't approve," he murmured as his hand slowly roamed over my chest.Each touch sent shivers down my spine, quickening my breath and causing me to lose myself in the moment.His hand had already found its way to my thigh, continuing to kiss my neck as he did so. I felt my resistance wane with the weakness seeping into my limbs. With a subtle motion, it seemed a part of my skirt shifted right into the middle."This is why I dislike you wearing a skirt. I don't want you to be so accessible... unless it's me."I nudged him slightly at his words. "You don't control me—"I halted once more when he silenced me by lightly tugging my lip. I surrendered to the sensations a

I observed Ayanna's sharp gaze fix on me before she turned to face Hector, who in turn looked at me with an inquiring expression. His eyes seemed to be searching for something, and I hurriedly avoided making eye contact with him."You didn't respond to my messages, but of course, I'll be here. Anton called me too. You're going to the resort today, and the bidding will commence," Ayanna informed Hector.I intended to leave, having no part in their affairs, but as I turned, I froze when Hector called my name."Solei." His voice held a deep gravity that felt almost threatening. I swallowed hard before meeting his gaze."W-why, sir?"His jaw clenched, prompting me to look away. Dealing with this man was always a challenge.

"Shit…" I heard him whisper. His brow furrowed even more."I can't bring you inside the conference room," he said, making it sound like a major concern."I'm fine out here," I replied with a shrug, attempting to withdraw my hand as it was getting sweaty, but he seemed insistent, leaving me frustrated."I can't leave you here alone," he said, turning somewhere as if looking for someone."She'll be fine here alone, Hector. I told you not to bring that woman here," Ayanna said, shooting a sharp look at me.I couldn't help but feel irritated every time she mentioned that name."If you're still not getting it, Ayanna, just stop being a nuisance to her," he simply said to the wom

"I have to get back to the barn," I told him groggily, adjusting myself.It was only then that I noticed I was wearing different clothes, and the dark outside signaled the lateness of the hour. Where are we? Where did he take me after what happened? What time is it now?"You need to rest—""I'm fine, Hector," I cut him off, standing up.I needed to get home; I was sure Amari was worried about me. His earlier conversation was disturbing. Who was he talking to? What were they discussing?"Hey…"His voice softened as he suddenly grasped my hand. I turned to look at him. His expression shifted, the fear and anger I'd seen earlier when he confronted Ayanna were gone.

"I don't even know if what that man is saying is true. Why should I go home?" I lazily told Erika and pretended to be busy slicing the ingredients of our dishes today.But the truth is that what he said still bothers me. There were many things I did not understand, but only one stuck in my brain — the last will and testament said. How can papa have such a thing, when we are not rich?He almost wanted his body to be two just so he could earn twice as much at work. What last will and testament is he saying? And he even wanted me to go back to Manila just to talk to him regarding that matter.As if I'd go back there just because he said so. I have no basis for all the things he explained to me last night so why would I follow him?But I wondered even more about myself

"They are healthy. You will see them when you are well, so get stronger soon," he told me softly and brought his face closer to my cheek.I closed my eyes. I feel the extreme fatigue in my whole body and the pain of the wound in my stomach. I had a C-section. The last time I remember, I really tried to make it in normal delivery but my body gave up suddenly. Everyone gave in to me, so everyone immediately decided for me because if not, my children will be in trouble.I could feel Hector's tight grip on my hands so I looked at him again. He closed his eyes while his face was still buried in my neck. Apparently, resting... or praying? I smiled and almost cried when I remembered the first time I gave birth and he was not by my side during those times. It was normal delivery yet it was hard for me to carry. Because I'm all alone. Everyone was there for me, cheering me, but I still felt loneliness during those times. But now, despite the pain and fatigue that my whole body feels, I feel

My Secret Husband The End
"Ares was right about you. He told me you're different than the other women out there. And I know he regrets that he used you in all his plans. What happened to us after that night, it wasn't the first time I saw you—the first time was when I rushed you to the hospital that day your father was shot by Ares. I knew I had to protect you because his group was also aiming for you. And then I never saw you again. I just found out that you are with Ares. That's when I found out everything he was planning and I had to rescue you again. And it pains me to see you hurting despite your genuine kindness. So when I saw Matthew hurt you, I almost destroyed his face after warning him about you. But he didn't listen. Your half-brother underestimated me, so I had to give him a lesson..."I felt surprised when I heard that. I suddenly remembered Matthew's broken face that was not done by Ares. So, that was him. Why is he only telling me this now? Why does he know more about me than I know about my lif

I could feel the anxiety and pain slowly engulfing me as we crossed the road to the hospital. I didn't listen properly to what Leon said and the only thing that stuck in my mind was when he said where it was—he was rushed to the hospital!I immediately looked at the nurse's counter. "M-miss, Hector Aragon..."That's all I said because I couldn't understand what was happening around me. He seemed to understand what I said. He looked at his monitor for a moment before turning to me."Still in the emergency room, Ma'am."I frowned. "Huh? I thought he was—""Ana, I found them!" I heard Leon scream so I looked at him quickly.I didn't waste any more time. I immediately followed him as he led me to the emergency room. I can still feel my surprise because I know that his condition is critical. Why is he still in the ER?My mind became even more confused when we reached a room that was only blocked by curtains. I tried asking Leon what we were doing here but he suddenly stopped and Hector w

Why do you need to keep this from me, Hector? what are you planningI didn't answer. I just stared at him. Measuring his gaze and how long he will go on lying to me. When he didn't really speak, I just got tired and looked away from him. I calmly went to the bed and lay down there. I suddenly felt a strange nervousness for an unknown reason."Hey..." I heard him call me.Next, I felt him sitting next to me. He caressed my cheek gently. I turned my back to his direction and tried to stop myself from paying attention to him."Baby..." he called me again. I closed my eyes tightly."Just go, Hector. I'm done talking to you," I told him lazily without looking at him.He kept caressing my cheek so I just closed my eyes.Where is he going? Does he know where his daddy is hiding so he will go to him? What will he do there? Why does he have to hide that thing from me?"I'll be quick. Don't be mad, please..." he gently said to me.I felt his hot breath on my cheek. After a while, his soft lip

"Don't you want to join us there?"I turned to the person who spoke and saw Leon carrying wine glasses. It stopped at my side."I wish I could," I answered him regretfully. I suddenly felt sad for some unknown reason."You still can. Unless Hector doesn't want you to hang out with us anymore," he said to me seriously so I looked at him.I crossed my arms on me and looked at him intently."What's your problem with him?" I asked him. Leon suddenly smirked at me and shook his head. "His father killed your parents, Ana, as well as you. He tries to kill you many times and he couldn't do anything about it. Do you think I can easily accept that? You know me," he answered in his baritone voice.I heaved a sigh violently. I somehow understand where he is coming from. Between the two of them, Ulysses is the one who is over-protective of everyone. If Ulysses has been given and allowed all my luxuries and passions from then until now, he is not. This is one of the inherited habits of Lolo Leonc

Everything he said did not enter my brain. I don't understand anything at all. He's giving up? Why? Why is he suddenly saying this? Where does it come from?"So, is it true? That because you love Leandro Alcaraz so much, you intend to betray mom?" I asked him in disbelief.That's because I'm still hoping that he might have another reason. That maybe this wasn't really his real reason why he did that.But instead of answering me, he suddenly stood up. I just followed him with my eyes until he arrived in front of the glass window of the study room. He looked there. His gaze was far away from nothing so I kept my gaze on him."Only my children know how much I love them... equally. What happened to Leandro was his own fault and he was the only one to blame for it. That maybe I was lacking in them that's why he did that. But it's not because I love him more than Ariza and Gascon. I did that because... it was your mom's will. He always wanted to give up but your dad just stopped him. We did

I'm catching my breath because of the anger and pain I feel while watching her just looking at me and I can't even see any sympathy in her eyes.And I understand that.But it still hurts.Agatha laughed sarcastically. "And you're hurting now because? What right do you have to be hurt after the bad luck you brought to our family? Do you think you'd get my sympathy because we didn't love you enough?""I didn't ask anything from you since then, Agatha and even more so now. Do you even know what Ares did to me?" I asked her trembling. I looked up at her big belly. I remembered what mom told me when she visited me last week."Congratulations on your pregnancy, anyway," I said and cried again when I remembered what happened to my pregnancy."I was supposed to be pregnant, too, but Ares took that from me. After he tried to rape me, he caused my miscarriage and I couldn't even do anything to make him pay for everything he did to me. He died without difficulty. Do you think that's fucking unac

"Where are you going?"I turned to the person who spoke and saw Hector who had just entered our room. It just woke up and maybe it came from Amari's room because they both slept there. His forehead was wrinkled as he watched me from head to toe."You didn't say you had something in mind today," he added and sat on the bed, watching me again while fixing my hair and face."Only at the law firm. I just need to talk to someone," I answered him then looked at him.His mouth was open so I looked at his lips. It was red and seemed to be calling me to give him a kiss. Even though he just woke up, he still looks very handsome. He is even more handsome with his appearance."Who?" He asked more. He slightly moved my chair closer to him and held me in his arms."It's Doña Valeria..." I hesitantly answered him.His forehead furrowed even more. He even licked his lower lip while clenching his jaw. "Why?" He asked again in his baritone voice. I swallowed."I'm not sure if she's there now, but Uly
