The fleeting moments of our semester break have come to an end, signaling the return to the rhythm of my everyday life. Claybourne is calling my name as I plan a visit to see my father, and the anticipation builds even further knowing that my brother will be joining us in December. Excitement bubbles inside me, eager to embrace the upcoming moments.

As I immersed myself in my activities, I suddenly felt a vibration in my bag, an indication of an incoming text message. With the day drawing to a close, it was our final class. I glanced at my phone and read the unexpected message: 'I will pick you up; I need you for an event.' An eyebrow raised, surprised at his audacity to enlist me for yet another errand. It seemed he had grown accustomed to relying on me.

Taking a deep breath, I reassured myself that I could handle it. I would tolerate his demands for now, but the days of being under his control were numbered. 'You don't have to pick me up; I'll make my own way there,' I replied, dete

    I found myself in a state of uncertainty as I stepped out of the mansion and entered the garden where the event was taking place. The attention seemed to be focused on me, though it was never my intention to be the center of it all. It was never part of my plan for things to unfold in this way.Slowly, I made my way toward the table that Logan's grandmother had mentioned earlier. She had told me that a guy named David Lopez, her grandson, would be sitting there. As I approached the table, I couldn't help but notice that Logan's table was conveniently placed right next to ours. It felt as though the old woman was deliberately stirring up trouble, and I couldn't help but sense that there was more to her plan than met the eye. Yet, despite my reservations, I still agreed to go along with it.Regardless of the outcome of this plan, I knew that I would have to face the consequences. It was impossible for me to believe that Logan could truly care about me. I had been fooled once before, and

    -Logan's POV-I know it might sound strange, but I'm starting to develop intimate feelings for her. Despite the age difference, I don't believe it should be a hindrance. She mentioned that she likes mature guys, and I'm confident that I fit into that category perfectly.I taught her how to ride a bike, and she has grown more confident and brave since then. She told me that she has learned a lot from me, and it's been incredible to witness the positive changes in her life. Today, I want to surprise her with flowers to lift her spirits. I plan to visit her and discuss my intentions with her mother.I recall the importance of winning over her family when it comes to winning someone's heart, not literally, but their affection. Gaining their approval would give me a significant advantage over other suitors who are vying for her attention.I'm not naive to the fact that there are many guys pursuing her. She has plenty of suitors. I want to have a competitive advantage over them."Good day,"

    I don't know, but when I expressed my thoughts to Logan, he became angry without providing any explanation. It's incredibly frustrating and, quite frankly, irresponsible of him.How dare he...If he has a problem, he shouldn't take it out on me. If he has an issue with me, we could have calmly discussed it instead.As I was about to leave, he grabbed my arm. Though his grip wasn't too tight, it was evident that he simply wanted to prevent me from leaving."Just stop talking to any males, guys, or playboys. Stop talking to them, or else I'll go insane!" he exclaimed in frustration, messing up my neatly combed hair.I shook my head and forcefully removed his hand from my arm. I looked at him with a sharp gaze, trying to comprehend the reasoning behind his irrational behavior."Logan, you're such a confusing person, and you've only given me more reason to believe so. After my exhausting day at school, you called me here to be your servant. I let it slide because it was okay... just so I

    We finally arrived at the hacienda, and it had been a few days since Logan and I had a proper conversation. He used to be playful but not very talkative. However, now he seemed like an open book, eager to share his stories. I enjoyed listening to him as we traveled to the manor, finding entertainment in his words.Honestly, I missed this side of him. I missed his subtle smiles and the way he raised his eyebrows when I said something silly. Every moment spent with him felt precious, and I wanted to cherish these moments."So, what now? I have work to do," I said with a smile."Work? No, I brought you here as a guest. Relax, you don't have any reason to work for me," he replied. However, my smile faded when he said that.It wasn't a secret that I hated the idea of working as a servant at the hacienda. Going from a luxurious life to a countryside with fewer resources was difficult to accept. I almost had nothing. I couldn't say I was poor because we weren't, but the thought of being resp

    "And what about you? Why do you hate the name Krystal? I know my first name sounds plain, but it's still a nice and classic name," I asked him, genuinely curious about his aversion to the name.I could sense that he had been avoiding this topic for a long time, and my guess was that he must have had a painful experience or a past with a woman named Krystal. He avoided making eye contact, indicating that it might be difficult for him to open up. I understood that pain often blocked our emotions, and I didn't blame him for his hesitation. But I wanted to let him know that it was okay if he wasn't ready to talk about it."It's okay if you're not ready to share or if you can't say it. You can call me Krystal; it won't be a big deal for me," I said, trying to change the mood and lighten the atmosphere.He smiled and shook his head. "That wouldn't be fair to you. Since you opened up, I should too," he replied.His willingness to open up delighted me, as it was a sign of trust growing betwee

    It's already December, and today is the day I've been eagerly anticipating. I can hardly believe that my older brother is finally coming home. My dad, on the other hand, remains the same. I talk to him on the phone all the time, but he's always busy with work, and I haven't seen him since we moved to this new place.But the most important thing is that I'll finally get to see my brother. He told me he'll be staying here for a while because his company has assigned him to this location. It's a relief to know that they have a branch here.As for my relationship with Logan, I can feel that we're progressing. We're growing closer to each other, spending more and more time together.My brother won't be arriving until later tonight, so I still have time to go on a date with Logan. It's already our Christmas break, so there are no classes, and it won't be a problem for me."Mom, Logan and I are going out," I informed my mom.She hugged me tightly and gave me a gentle kiss on the forehead. "Y

    As much as I can, I try to remove all those negative thoughts since the day I saw that man who looks exactly like my dad.I know it may seem shocking. That's something I can't accept even if it turns out to be true.I know my dad. He is such a loving guy to my mom, so I can't imagine him cheating on her. I always say that if he cheats on Mom, his karma will burden me.When I woke up the next day, my brother was already here. I hugged him and kissed him on the cheeks. I love him so much! Like, he really enjoys spoiling me with anything and everything.That's why many people envy me. Having such a kind, wonderful, and generous brother is such a blessing for me."How's my youngest sibling? The most beautiful sister I have," my brother teased right away.I gave him a light pinch because there he goes with his teasing again. It has become his hobby."Claude!" I scolded him. I don't know what's with my brother, sometimes he enjoys teasing me out of nowhere."Haha, just kidding. I didn't wak

    Since I had slept late, I also woke up late, probably around 11 in the morning. I had a slight headache, thanks to my brother who woke me up. And guess what was the first thing he said to me? He asked when Logan would be arriving.I tried to divert his attention because his constant pestering was stressing me out. But he wouldn't stop, so I had no choice but to call Logan.I actually wanted him to rest first. Logan had just returned from a long business trip, and I hoped he could get some much-needed rest before facing my brother. However, my ears had been hurting since earlier."Brother, it's Christmas. Maybe you can meet him some other time..." I stopped myself, realizing I was about to mention Logan's name."Who?" he inquired, as curious as ever."Just wait, brother. You'll eventually get to know him," I said, trying to put an end to the topic."Fine, I'll meet that person before the day ends," my brother declared, finality in his tone.My brother left, leaving only my mom and me i

    “You look uneasy, why?”“Because you are staring,” I replied in a barely audible voice. I didn’t know if he heard me or what, but I didn’t give a damn. The man has disturbed my peace of mind since his arrival."You didn't seem to mind your appearance before; why do you appear uneasy now?"Jordan became aware of my discomfort and was impolite enough to inform me of it. Couldn't he just close his mouth? "You make me feel uneasy!" If only you wouldn't steal glances at my cleavage, I'd go change my clothes." I stood up to leave, but he grabbed my hand quickly, and I raised my brows when he did."If you don't want me to look, you should dress decently!"“That’s offensive to say, Jordan!” I told him.After calling out the misappropriate words he uttered, he felt offended and walked away. As a man, he should be saying that kind of nonsense because respecting a woman wouldn’t depend on the clothes she’s wearing.Nevertheless, I felt it was appropriate to follow him inside, and when I couldn’t

    When I joined him, he stared at me for a moment before he resumed eating. Due to my nervousness, I nearly forgot that he was shirtless! Unconsciously, my eyes traveled towards his well-formed chest, and damn it, how could he look so yummy in the morning!“You are making me uncomfortable,” he stated in a flat voice.“I’m sorry but I just realized that you are topless,” I told him.“Is this the first time you see a topless man, Krystal? I bet this is not the first time, so please stop acting.”One way or another, his statement was offensive, but still, I tried to remain calm. “I am not acting, sir,” I reasoned out.“Really, Miss Krystal Miranda?”When he called my name, I was too stunned to speak. My hands were shaking at the thought of being discovered. “You know me?” I asked him seriously.“Of course! Alice gave me your full name when she sent me the bank details,” he replied nonchalantly, and for a moment, I was able to breath. “So, going back to my request, I need a personal assista

    When Alice stopped me from taking the call, I was overthinking again. What if a creditor would suddenly call and I couldn't pay? “What is it? Don’t tell me that you have changed your mind about him,” I jested about Eleazar.“No, it’s not about him. I forgot to tell you that someone booked a long term stay in Bellcana. You were still sleeping when he called earlier,” Alice mentioned.“Great! Finally, we have a guest coming! Wait, I’ll take this call, and hopefully, it’s another reservation,” I said with excitement, even if Alice didn’t mention more details about the guest.“He availed the exclusive use of the entire resort for six months,” Alice continued.In a snap, the feeling of being excited was replaced with disappointment. “Exclusive use for six months? There’s no doubt it was a prank call,” I told her.“Hmmm, he asked for your bank details where he could send the payment,” Alice added, and I arched my brows in response.“We’ll see,” I said before dashing to the front desk to tak

    Instead of opening a food business, I decided to start a resort because Clayland has few resorts that could accommodate tourists. Since my marriage to Logan has been made public, Clayland has become a constant topic. Several socialites flocked to Clayland in hopes to find an old money like Logan’s family.Since I had no experience in running a resort, I attempted to copy my competitor’s way of doing business. Since the resort was built, I considered it as a start up business, and didn’t splurge on expenses.Another sigh escaped from my lips when I strolled towards Alice. She was engaged to my brother, but the bastard was smitten again by his ex-girlfriend. I groaned in frustration because I was reminded when Logan went to his ex and hurt my feelings!Men could really be dense and despicable at times!She carried my baby outside to get some sunlight and fresh air. Curly and light brown hair clung haphazardly to a pretty face. Deep into their sockets, darting brown eyes gazed smilingly

    -Logan-s POV-I trailed behind Krystal as she left the Azura condo unit. To my surprise, she met with Riyu, a young businessman. But when I noticed that she seemed distressed and forced, I acted swiftly to save the woman I loved.It was all a misunderstanding. She believed that Rhaena Krystabella and I were still together, that I was already married. Little did she know that all this time, it had been her and no one else.With her forgiveness and a chance to prove myself, I regained hope. However, circumstances led to me having to attend to urgent matters concerning my younger brother, Blake Son. I had to leave her, despite it paining me deeply. Every moment apart felt like an eternity, and I missed her dearly.Whenever an opportunity arose, I would call her, checking on her well-being. And as I remained in Clayland, I pondered how to make her mine. Perhaps a proposal? I couldn't wait any longer to be with my beloved Krystal.But to my astonishment, upon my return to Azura, she was th

    -Logan’s pov-I am Logan Lopez, and this is the story of how I met Krystal, the girl who became my everything. Little did I know that she would come into my life and completely sweep me off my feet once again.She had the face of an angel, still a young girl back then. Despite being attracted to her, I couldn't allow myself to develop feelings. She was just a girl, and the age gap posed an issue. Even though she was in Senior High School, the same age as my brother Andrew, I couldn't pursue her.Her face was undeniably my type, but that didn't change the fact that she was trouble.She dared to kick me where it hurt, she dared to talk back, she dared to defy me. However, she also managed to intrigue me.Many things unfolded between us. From the incident where she almost drowned because of me to our dinner where I unintentionally offended her, leading to her breaking a vase.

    "Hmm," I hummed, contemplating for a moment. "Actually, there is an issue. Everything was going perfectly, and your surprise exceeded my expectations. But here's my concern: why did you buy such an extravagant ring? This isn't even our wedding ring, and I dare you to suggest that our wedding rings will be even more expensive than this," I playfully threatened him.I am aware that I have a penchant for luxurious things, but the ring holds great significance to me. It symbolizes eternal love. I desire a simple ring to wear in public, one that proudly signifies that it was given to me by the man I adore and who adores me in return."What's wrong with an expensive ring?" he asked, genuinely puzzled. "You deserve it, and so much more. Let me indulge you," he pleaded, his eyes filled with a genuine desire to spoil me.It's as if he doesn't see me as a spoiled brat—no! He actually calls me a spoiled rotten brat. This man is truly something else."I'll let you spoil me in other ways, but not

    After our passionate lovemaking session, we decided to revisit the place where our love story began. Those memories from the past still bring me immense joy, and reminiscing about them fills my heart with warmth.We embarked on a horseback ride, Logan and I, making our way towards the majestic waterfall. As we reached our destination, we noticed that the falls had undergone some improvements. Logan must have known that we might return, so he took the initiative to have it restored. It's a testament to how much our favorite places mean to him.Interestingly, we didn't opt for a traditional church wedding. Instead, we chose this enchanting waterfall as the backdrop for our special day. Perhaps I can attribute it to my love for Twilight, where Bella and Edward had their beautiful forest wedding. I couldn't resist the idea of a similarly enchanting ceremony. How bold of me, indeed!As we stood by the waterfall, we couldn't resist immersing ourselves in the cool and refreshing water. I rem

    "Mom, it's not what you think, okay? We simply stayed up late last night, and as we were feeling hungry, we decided to have a late-night meal. But then, we couldn't immediately fall back asleep. We ended up staying awake, engaged in deep conversations. Unfortunately, my room isn't soundproof, so any noise could be heard," I explained, trying to clarify the situation."Well, I suppose there's some truth to that," my brother chimed in.After our somewhat awkward lunch, the food might have been delicious, but we struggled to enjoy it under Mom's skeptical gaze. The truth is, nothing happened between us last night or this morning. But if we had wanted to, why not, right?So, with that in mind, we decided to visit the mansion. It's a bit bittersweet, knowing that Logan's grandmother is no longer with us. She passed away two years ago, and I regret not being able to visit her before she left.However, Logan's grandmother had expressed her final wish for us to get married. It brings me great
