Kendra Pov...He insisted on sending me back in the morning and I couldn't say no. I'm starstruck and captivated by him. Just thinking of running away but he already caged me in metal. His fucking charm is a magnet taking all your energy. I'm drained and all I want is to lie on his arms for safety and comfort. I pretended to sleep on our way to the hotel where I was staying for a month. Our ride was smooth and quiet but my heart thumps abnormally unable to grasp and manifest everything. My mind keeps saying to breathe and thinking he is not with me but my stupidity is higher than my brain.Arriving at the entrance of the hotel I quickly jump out without saying a word. My focus is to reach my room and freshen up. I reek of sex and my clothes were remnants of last night. Bumping with Danny early in the morning was unexpected and Emrico following me up was a disaster. Danny's face expresses everything. We were standing for a few minutes before Danny chose to leave us and I didn't expect
Enrico Pov... I know this is unfair to Diana but she's like a drug I couldn't resist. Even if close my eyes she's the temptation ruining everything but I'm into it. I'm willing to delve into crossing the border and jumping to the other side.When I'm with her everything changes. I felt like I'm lying on the clouds smoothly relaxed and excited. I lost my composure and my words. She is the only thing dancing in my vision. What did I get into actually? Why? Why I can't run away from her bait? I'm already drowned unable to rise. "Kendra, I have clothes in my car. Please get it for me." I ask her as the clothes I wear was wet with our craziness and temptations that can't wait."But Enrico!" She protested. I know she is embarrassed with Danny and she prefers to stay here."Then I should stay here longer until those clothes will be dry a bit." I shrugged crossing my feet sitting revealing my muscular legs. The shower robe is small. She bites her lips battling with herself."Don't mind it!
Mike Pov... Since Kendra appeared Enrico becomes a powerless and different person. Diana never makes him weakling like this but for some reason, I doubt Kendra's appearance. Enrico doesn't mind getting late at his meeting and he's less intimidating. He can ever smile which he seldom does. Kendra definitely did something to him though I prefer the latter but it's kind of weird.If I'm not mistaken there is love starting to blossom even if they keep on denying it and refuse to admit it. Their stares and actions show what they really feel. Action speaks louder than words. That's exactly my conclusion. I'm not stupid not to know what happened at the weekend grill party. I saw Kendra entering the house but never saw her come out. Everyone left but didn't see a glimpse of her. She can't just vanish. There's only one exit in this house!Enrico's stare towards her that night means bigger. He's somewhat jealous as well when Danny is close. I prefer Kendra over Diana! Kendra is human while Di
Kendra Pov... I'm not sure what I'm doing is right but I think I'm falling for him. I don't how did I start to like him much. When I saw her at the restaurant that night what I felt was terrified and wanting to hide under the ground but then the next day terrified to fall for him but I was already caught and locked up by his charm.My body couldn't resist him and all I wanted was to be enveloped in his embrace. This feeling is forbidden even if he promises to take care of me yet I'm still giving in to him.I'm thinking if the timing of coming back was right or if another disaster was to unfold. Should I get drunk again to realize that men are not good to me?Enrico is an unfinished business that I am entangled in now. For some reason, I felt we were already connected and meeting now was the right moment but he already had someone! It's a selfish act to take him from her!"Kendra don't mind Diana, she's my past trying to rekindle our romance but It won't work. Rekindling with you is hi
Diana Pov...It's been a month since our vacation together and I felt Enrico slipping away recently. He never comes home and he seldom calls me. When we see each other he is not excited. His mind is wandering away.I'm scared and worried he might change his mind but I will not let that happen. I'm back and we should push through on our halted wedding.I came back to get back what is mine and I will dwell on all the hindrances to our relationship. He was mine and he will always be mine! Enrico Soledad will not slip on my palm."Honey, can you help me here?" I called seducing him."I'm sorry, I just started to wash!" He replied just when the shower drops echoed in the room. I pouted depleted. This can't continue like this! I can feel he is slipping away in my palm."Okay!" I replied solitary.He stayed in the bathroom for more than an hour just taking a bath! What is he trying to wash on his body taking so long?"Babe! Are you sleeping there? I don't think there's a lot of lewd in your b
Enrico Pov...When I left her at the hotel where she stays, I'm jubilant and excited for another tomorrow. My smile never faltered as I drive home only to be ruined by Diana's appearance.I didn't mean to snob her the whole night but my appetite sunk to see her. I feel she's a thorn in my throat and I can't breathe. I want to get out and breathe. Leaving her early in the morning without a word is the only way I know to give her a sign that we can rekindle our past. I need to remember she left me for no reason and left me alone facing all the criticism and embarrassment. Dad's meeting was my perfect scapegoat. The meeting ended around lunch and all I can think is to reach Kendra again. I want to eat lunch with her and anything more. She is a drug that comes into my life that I can't run away from. I will chase even hell I will just be around her.She never answered directly but I could feel she couldn't resist me like how I was hypnotized and fascinated by her. I called Mike to find o
Devu Pov...Seeing Enrico at my meeting was surprising but as a good friend, I get his point. He always winks if he is interested in something and smirks when he wants to play. Stoic face when annoyed and pissed! Mike and I already knew him very well.I played with the game he wanted and I admit was stunned by how quick it was. I thought they just met that day but I was fooled. They were good artists to play their fucking rules. They fooled me! Damn it, Enrico! I left the parking lot when I rounded to see Enrico kissing Kendra. I step on my break quickly stunned and hard creating a loud noise!While driving I couldn't believe what I saw so I called Mike who is working with Enrico, he might know something that I am unaware of! I can't move on and still, those images of them flirting and kissing are clapping on my head distracting me!Enrico, you need to explain what that is for! You owe me big time! I hissed driving to Mike's house. When I arrive I honk loud pissed."What the fick Devu
Kendra Pov...Seeing Enrico at that meeting was unexpected and surprising. It seems our world is too shallow and we always stumble at each other's. Can I have a day without him or is it just the place is too small for us? I can't manage myself every time he's around! He weakens everything in my body even my voice and words are hard to find! What exactly did he do to me? When I met him five years ago none of this happened but why now? This can't be happening between us! Then you must stop yourself fantasizing and being manipulated by his charm. I cried. His smiles and smirks send shivers and others that words can express it. Fuck Kendra! After my meeting with Devu, he pulled me out of the restaurant. I don't know where he is dragging me until I find myself following him at the parking. He couldn't restrain himself and pulled me to kiss. We kiss like it's a free world and no one can see us. He almost lost himself, thank goodness with that loud brake, he woke up and pulled me to his c

Danny Pov...He couldn't contain the happiness she felt hearing that Diana and her small family were caught in Italy before they could leave at dawn. Evelyn on the other hand don't want to let him face them alone pleading for her parents to watch their kids for a while to help him. She knows this is very important to him and will set him free as well. "Hi Diana, it's been too long!" Danny beamed entering the room. Diana didn't respond and just looked at him desolate. She knows it's already over. "You know, I wanted justice through my hand but you are damn lucky I have a family stopping me to become evil because what you did is fucking unforgivable!" Danny erupted emphasizing his words. He really wanted to strangle this bitch woman but he can only do that in his mind as he don't want to go to jail and lose the chance to raise his children. "So where's your sharp tongue now and smart mind? I don't want to waste my time with you. See you in court Diana!" She didn't respond and accep
Third Person POV...As the sun descended below the horizon at Montemayor's Manor, a palpable sense of excitement and nostalgia filled the air. Today, Senior Manolo invited his whole family to gather in his manor. "It's time to rest now, I did my part to make them settle." Senior Montemayor mumbled as everyone slowly arrived one after another. Laughter and chatter filled the living room and hallway of the house as his family members started to make this day worth it. While his children and children-in-laws enjoying this sudden reunion their children filled the hallways of the house, garden, and pool with waves of laughter vibrating around the manor. The aroma of homemade dishes wafted from the kitchen, filling their nostrils. Antonia reminded me of the days when her mother cooked her favorite food before going to school and when she invited her boyfriend to come over."Aunt Rhea, did you meet grandma?" Enrico asked."A few times and she was a great mom." She responded making Antonia
