"I'm happy for you. At least now that everything is clear, you won't have any trouble protecting her," William said the next day when he informed her about him and Mia.A small red box was in front of Erik and placed on top of his working table. It was open so he could freely stare into a beautiful and expensive diamond engagement ring that he bought earlier with William.It’s for Mia. For the most beautiful in his world. The one that he is going to marry.Erik shrugged his shoulders with a wide smile at what his friend said. Then he took the box. Closed and put it inside the pocket of his pants.Just now, he can already imagine how beautiful Mia's smile would be when he gave it to her. That was when he started to feel something intense and inexplicable in his heart.“But thanks, man. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be able to realize everything. If it wasn’t for you until now, I might still be in denial about what my true feelings are for Mia. You're right, I love her. I have always
Mia did not know or sure where she got the courage to respond to Erik the way he did to her. He was quickly taken out of her senses by that kiss. But despite that, she was still startled when his hand started to move."I love you, so much," said the young man when he let go of her lips, then looked at her face with an admiring gaze.That's when Mia caressed Erik's handsome face. Then she spoke with the corner of her eyes heating up."I love you. I love you so much. From then until now and forever, there is no other man I will love and give my heart but into but you," Mia expressed passionately.When Erik smiled, it was like a warm hand touched Mia's heart. And that was the reason why the emotion that he had been controlling for a while eventually gave in.“Y-You don't know how much you make me happy. Because you made my greatest dream come true. The dream that I thought will remain out of my reach forever," he said, expressing her happiness at that moment."Everything you say is so go
That touching of their lips became like a fuse for a rainy but scorching night between her and Erik. And for Mia, if she was able to give herself to Bernie just because of the fact that they live together, what more with Erik? The man who gave her a ring and proposed to her? It was Erik who accepted her as he was the one who picked up every piece of her heart and herself that she seemed to want to give up and throw away. When Erik released her lips, Mia had a chance to gasp for air. She felt that even though it was raining outside, a big fire was engulfing the wholeness of their room. Another fact is that they both have no body coverings. So she can feel the heat not only from her skin but also from Erik's. "Mia," said the young man when he brought her hand to his mouth and gently kissed it. “I love you so much, and this time I'm ready to fight with everything we have. No matter who gets in the way, I will assure you that we will end up together," he said, caressing her forehe
Mia refrain from making a noise due to Erik's finger attacking her delicacy but she failed. The jolt of happiness and electrifying pleasure it gave her was so strong that in the end, her breathing became continuous. "Mia," she heard Erik say as he continued his assault on her.Just like before, it seems that it was difficult for Mia to do everything because of the good feeling she was experiencing. Just like the simple opening of her eyes because what Erik was doing to her at that moment was so glorious. "Look at me, Mia," the young man whispered to her as her eyes remained closed. Then Mia shook her head one after the other then she followed it with a fine and long moan. "Oh, Erik," when she couldn't resist that was what escaped her lips as she closed her eyes. It didn't take long for the young man to claim her lips. And she responded to that. She greeted him in a calm but sweet way that seemed to defeat Erik's anger. Because in the end, she felt that he imitated her behavio
WHEN Erik's face went down again, Mia decided to put her head back on the bed. She knew that she will get weak when the young man gave her the reason why he was able to ask her if she was ready."Oh!"That's what escaped her lips when his hot mouth touched her stomach, which made her feel even more sensual when she felt the sensation of his burning tongue there.Erik didn't move anymore.Every time they are in this kind of situation the young man always becomes quiet. And that is one of the signs that she sees and becomes the basis of the dangerous happiness she is destined to taste.The young man continued what he was doing. Until one of his hands probably got bored. He reached for her left breast and started massaging there.Mia's body felt delicious electricity again. But the young man's hand did not stay there for long. He removed it from there and then took one of her legs to hang on his shoulder.Mia’s chest heaved because of that. But it's not the real thing yet and she knows i
But the young man seemed to hear nothing and just kept doing what he was doing. While Mia no longer knows how she would react to all that was happening to her body.Feeling that she could feel every touch of Erik's tongue in her femininity. He pulled even it pulled closer to him and then pushed the back of her thighs upwards. That is why he had better access to her jewel.But it is not just the touching and bruising of him that she feels for those moments. But the strong fire between the two of them was furious. And that was raised by the young man's unfit concentration on her as he blessed her womanhood."Damn, Erik this is so fucking good!" eventually she spits.Mia could no longer tolerate how she felt in those moments. She did not know how she would inform or tell the young man how much glory she had because of his audacity."Oh, Erik, please," if what was that please she whispered, she didn't know.And if she doesn't know, it looks like Erik knows exactly what she was trying to s
Mia rolled her eyes because of the inexplicable happiness that flowed through her at that moment.She knew that she had no choice but to accept all of Erik's audacity. Even after all, she also had the fear in her heart that she might not be able to handle the other glorious punishment that the young man planned to inflict on her."I love you," Erik said as he kept going in and out of her sensitivity.Mia closed her eyes as she let out a soft moan. But that was only for a moment because she opened her eyes again to gaze at the perfectly handsome face of the man now lovingly claiming her.Erik didn't let go of her hands. That's why she couldn't caress his face even though she wanted to."I love you so much, Erik. More than my life," she said truthfully.That was her true feelings for the young man.Then and now, her heart knows and loved no one but Erik. That's why now that this is happening to her, she feels like the luckiest woman in the world.Erik smiled when he bent down and then f
AGAIN, a long but soft moan quickly escaped Mia's lips. She immediately felt what seemed to be a rapid intensification of the weakness of her whole body at that moment.But despite the fact that Erik's ability to seduce a woman is slowly defeating her, she still hasn't stopped moving on top of him.She had no plans to do that. Because even though she could hardly feel her whole body due to the intense happiness and sensation that was like hot oil repeatedly caressing her whole body. Her desire to reach the climax with Erik still prevailed over her.Mia knew that compared to the young man, the strength she had accumulated was nothing. If the only thing to talk about is this hot scene they share now."Erik, why are you so good? You are so great!" and she could no longer stop her dirty talks as the flames of desire engulfed her entire system.Erik didn't answer when she said that. Instead, he stopped massaging her jewel and even one of her breasts. After that, his hands gripped her waist
"ERIK? It’s you, right?"Nathaniel, finally sensing the moment, approached his boyfriend."I'm Nathaniel, Mia's brother," he said without hesitation, extending his hand toward Erik.At that moment, Mia looked up at her boyfriend's face. She could clearly see the quick change in Erik's aura as he accepted Nathaniel's handshake."Oh, would you believe it, I have a brother?" Mia said, stifling a laugh. "And here you are, getting jealous without even asking me?" she added, embracing Erik tightly.That was when Erik held Mia tightly in his arms, then let go and pressed his lips against hers without uttering a word. Disregarding the people who could see them, he made her feel the intense longing he had for her."Shall we go inside?" he said with a smile, his eyes sparkling.Mia happily nodded in agreement and waved at Erik's parents before entering.*****"We're actually traveling today to bring Mia back to Manila," Nathaniel said when they faced each other in the living room."Nate has his
"Why don't you call Mia so she'll have an idea about our arrival," Fidel, Erik's father, suggested.They were already on their way to the province. The journey would take eight to ten hours, and it was only four o'clock in the morning when they hit the road."I don't have her number, Pa. Honestly, I'm not sure if she changed her number or if her phone is always turned off. I've tried calling her several times, but still no response," Erik replied."Well, maybe it's better this way, without her knowing that you're coming. She'll be more surprised," his mother chimed in from the backseat of the car.*****"We have a problem, Mia," Nathaniel said, peering through the door of her room."A problem?" Mia asked her brother, her attention focused on packing her belongings. She was about to return to Manila, and Nathaniel, along with Aunt Ising and even Elena, would be accompanying her."I wasn't allowed to skip today. I'm sorry, but maybe we can leave after my last class, which should be afte
"You can't travel to the province right now, son. It's too far, it's an eight-hour journey, to be honest," said Aurora while they were on their way home.Now he knew where Mia was, and he didn't want to waste any more time. He was eagerly anticipating seeing her. He wanted to bring his future wife home so he could take care of her, especially in her current condition."But Ma, I can't wait until tomorrow. I want to see Mia," she replied, keeping her gaze fixed on the road."But Erik, why don't you rest for a while?" Fidel interjected. "And besides, your mother and I would like to accompany you, the two of us together," he added.Erik couldn't contain the joy that quickly filled his heart upon hearing his father's words. He couldn't hide his feelings as he responded."Really, Pa?" he asked, briefly turning to look at his father.He heard his father let out a soft laugh before answering, "Of course. We also want to be there to help you sort everything out.""And besides, it's not safe f
"E-ELENA?"As Aunt Ising recognized the woman who was busy hanging bedsheets in the back part of the shelter, Mia couldn't help but feel a quick throb in her chest. Then she looked up at her brother Nathaniel, questioning him with her eyes. And as he seemingly understood the meaning behind her gaze, he simply shrugged his shoulders."I-Ising?"The woman whom Aunt Ising called Elena responded."W-Who is she, Sister Cecilia?" Mia couldn't resist asking the accompanying nun."She is the woman who left you and your brother here in this shelter many years ago," Sister Cecilia answered her with a kind smile.Surprised or astonished?Mia couldn't determine which of the two dominant emotions prevailed in her heart.She also couldn't speak immediately because she remained transfixed, gazing at the woman.Just like what happened to her earlier with Nathaniel, she couldn't remember anything about this woman. But despite everything, a part of her heart couldn't deny that it suddenly felt an eager
"Ma'am Eden, someone is looking for you.”Bernie, their housemaid, Lita, said as she found her mother busy watering the plants in their garden in Manila."Who?" she asked, turning to them and quickly freezing upon recognizing him. "M-My son?" she stammered, dropping the hose and rushing towards him, embracing him tightly."M-Mom," he managed to say, returning the tight embrace. "I-I missed you so much," he added, tears streaming down his face.After a few moments, Eden led her inside their house. "Lita, prepare some food," she instructed, gently caressing his face."What happened, honey? Why did you run away?" she asked with concern when they were finally alone in the living room.Bernie immediately looked around their spacious home. "What about Dad? Where is he?" he asked, disappointed not to see him."He went grocery shopping. Since we heard about what you did, your father hasn't been at peace. So, I let him do what he wants to distract himself," her mother explained.Her mother's w
"Mama, forgive me if I have hurt and caused you pain," Erik pleaded, holding Aurora's hand gently.In response to his gesture, tears welled up in Aurora's eyes, streaming down her cheeks. "Please forgive me too, both your father and me," she replied, tapping his hand lightly.Erik smiled and nodded, understanding the depth of her words. He stood up and embraced his mother tightly. Then, he glanced at Fidel, who smiled back at him.Though it was a simple smile, Erik knew it carried profound meaning. In an instant, he felt a weight lifted off his chest, a burden he had been carrying for a long time. And he couldn't deny that it was because of his act of forgiveness towards his mother.Yes, he loved his parents dearly. And now, as a father himself, even though he and Mia had yet to welcome their child into the world, he had gained a deeper understanding of the true meaning of life. This was why he found it easy to comprehend and accept everything his mother had done and the choices she h
"Sometimes, I imagine that if Nana Rosita hadn't died, or if I had a sibling, maybe what happened to me wouldn't have occurred. I'm certain someone would have stood up for me," Mia shared as she finished recounting her story. The weight of her words quickly took effect, stirring a warmth in the corners of her eyes. Yet, despite her longing to let the tears flow and release her emotions, she managed to restrain herself. "What do you mean?" Nathaniel inquired, his gaze fixed upon her. She turned to face him, offering a bittersweet smile. "I'm just an adopted child, Nate." Gradually, she decided it was time to disclose the truth to him as well. After all, she had already confided in him the real reason for her presence there. "I was merely found, that's the truth," she began narrating her life story to Nathaniel. She recalled her first memories of being adopted and the journey that led her to Rosita, who had become a maternal figure in her life. "Are you all right, big brother?" sh
"It's a good thing Erik decided to return to work. Even if you say that our future brother-in-law is extravagantly wealthy, he still needs to work hard. After all, why let the opportunity to earn money go to waste? Right, Rosanna?" Dahlia remarked with a strong undertone. It had been two weeks since she was discharged from the hospital, and they came to visit her."Of course. By the way, Mia, how are you and your future in-laws doing?" Rosanna replied, briefly aligning herself with Dahlia's comment before facing her directly.They were assisting her in preparing the ingredients for the Kare-Kare she was cooking for lunch. Erik had told her that he would only be working a half-day at the office today and would continue with other tasks at home.Honestly, she couldn't understand why Erik had been overly attentive to her since she was discharged from the hospital. It seemed as if he already knew about her pregnancy. It wouldn't be far-fetched since she had been admitted for a few days an
Mia's senses awakened as she freely admired the nakedness of the man she was about to marry, slowly removing every article of clothing from his body. Erik's actions were incredibly pleasurable to behold, and in those moments, Mia felt abundantly blessed. Despite the countless women who had crossed this man's path, he had chosen her as his bride.Mia's heart fluttered at the thought. When she saw Erik move closer to kiss her, she welcomed it with unrestrained love and passion. She responded to Erik's kisses as if she were thirstier for him than ever before, losing herself completely in the process.Erik's gentle caress on her chest stirred something deep within Mia, evoking a soft moan from the depths of her throat. Their lips remained intertwined, while Erik's hand, nestled between her thighs, began to provide her with indescribable pleasure.Mia moaned once more when Erik's fingers skillfully explored her intimate flower, which was now drenched with desire. "You're soaked, Mia," that
