THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 68: Fabio's Discovery
Tanya's POV I stared in shock at Fabio. It had been such a long while since I saw him; I wasn't even aware that he'd traveled like Rodrigo said. Seems like I was a stranger here, which shouldn't be so.But I hadn't particularly asked about that, so it was understandable that he didn't tell me. Surprisingly, Rodrigo didn't look happy to see him; he looked like Fabio was some pest that he had to deal with for a while.After all that happened to Rodrigo, I really didn't want him to be unhappy, and it seemed that Fabio's presence was doing just that. "Do you mind? I don't think he wants to see you," I said.Fabio turned his gaze on me, lips turned up in a smirk. "And if it isn't our dear Tanya defending Rodrigo. But how do you know that's what he wants? If he wants me to leave, he can say it himself."I fell silent, realizing that this was probably a fight between the both of them and I shouldn't interfere. It was not like Fabio would do what I asked anyway."Well, she's right," Rodrigo
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 69: MR ATTITUDE
Tanya's Pov I waited beside the door for a while in indecision. I had no idea what to do next, and looking at him sitting in the room, I did not think it would be a good idea for me to talk to him about my request now. 'I'll wait until a better time,' I thought as I started leaving the place. He had already begun to incline towards where I was. Most likely, he had a feeling that I was still at the door and would soon call me out for it. I was definitely not ready for a confrontation with him in any way. Getting to my room, I fell asleep instantly. All the tiredness that I felt before washed over me and put me in a dormant state until another two hours had passed. I woke up feeling hungry and rather depressed. The thought of what I had before me, the intense talking session with him that awaited me, was enough to make me want to sleep all over again. I closed my eyes for a while before deciding not to be lazy. If I was going to do it, there was nothing to stall for. 'The earl
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 70: EMOTIONS
Rodrigo's POVI could not bring myself to look at her, not after I heard a little of the news that she had for me. She was leaving me. Was she not? It was fine. I did not need her anyway. I never really did.Why did I feel this kind of empty feeling at the bottom of my stomach? I just knew that she would not be coming back if she actually left me if I actually let her go.I was aware of the way I treated her. It was not the best of ways, of course. She was sure to hate me because of that, even if not much, at least a little.I kept on looking down when she spoke to me, telling me of her intention. There was no need for her to know how I felt, to know that I felt conflicted about the entire situation. It would suffice if she thought that I did not care about it in the least.However, when she left me eventually, I could feel a sense of emptiness creeping up on me. I tried my best to remove it, to keep it down and suppress it as much as I could, but it was almost impossible. I did not r
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 71 - MAKE IT OUT ALIVE
Tanya's POVI could swear that he was watching me. He probably thought that I didn't know, but it was obvious. I had seen the shadows move behind the door, and since there was nobody else in the house with me, I could tell that he was the one."What does he want now?" I asked myself internally, trying to figure out the matter. The chances were that he was going to try to keep me from leaving. Now that he was watching me like a hawk, that was the only reason he would come here after all. If he didn't care about it in the first place, then he would just let me go without coming even to say goodbye or anything like that.Not like he had actually come to say goodbye this time, I contemplated, looking around the place and making out opportunities for myself to glance at the door. It was impossible to see him from the angle that I was at now without him noticing that I was actually looking at him. I didn't want him to know that I had seen him, so I gave up on that idea.I focused on packing
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 72: FEELINGS
Rodrigo's POVIt was natural that I would fall asleep; that was the only thing that could keep me from thinking about her. At least, that's what I thought before it took me away. I found out, much to my dismay, that she haunted me in my sleep also. Only then it was much more scary, like a nightmare. All the things that I had done to her, the mean words that I had said to her, the way I had acted and kept on sending her away from me, kept on replaying in my mind, judging me for my sins."Surely I wasn't that terrible," I defended myself, trying to make sense of the scenes that kept on tormenting me. It was as if I was finally beginning to see through my actions, see them through her eyes at that."I have to get her back," I said, waking up from the sleep to realize that it was all a dream. I looked at the face of the clock on the wall and saw that it was already night, around 8:00 or maybe closer to 10. I couldn't tell because I was too lazy to look up and focus my eyes while doing so.
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 73: LOOK DEATH IN THE EYE
Tanya's POVI got away from the bus driver quite easily, so easily that I thought for once in my life I had lady luck on my side. It rarely happened that things would go exactly the way I planned, especially when it was a plan I had made without much thought.I continued running as fast as I could, taking the heavy bag with me. Finally, I had to stop; the load on me was too much."I should have probably had a destination in mind," I thought to myself as I looked around. I realized I was in the middle of nowhere. If I had a plan earlier, I might have stopped at a hotel or somewhere to stay for the night. Now, I had no idea where to go.I tried to recognize the place, looking around in confusion. It was strange; I could swear I had never been here before in my life. But it was night, and that could be why. There was a very good possibility that I actually knew exactly where I was now.I placed the location along with several others in my mind, trying to match it. It was almost impossibl
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 74: TORMENT
Tanya's POV"I'll tell you a secret," he said to me, smiling at me. It was perfect. I had nothing else to talk to him about, nowhere to continue the conversation to postpone the inevitable, which made it wonderful that he would tell me something instead, keeping the conversation flowing."I'd love to hear it," I said, a bit too excited before hearing the actual words and wanting to run away from him as fast as possible. I was in for a round of suffering if he actually got me."I'm a sadist," he said, giving me a sadistic smile.I looked around the place, wondering whether I could flee from there. We were not compatible, never. I was not a person who liked pain, never had been, and from what he was saying, he wanted to torture me."But you just told me that you are not interested in me," I said to him, taking a step forward. For once, his eyes widened when he saw that."Well, I think we are progressing," he said. At that instant, I realized what I had done because of what he had said.
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 75: I WANT HER
Tanya's POVNaturally, Rodrigo did no such thing. Begging was not his style. If he did, then he would not be Rodrigo, the proud man that I knew—or at least thought I knew. I would never have thought that he would act in the way he had, sending somebody to get me after allowing me to leave in the first place. It was as if he had decided to get rid of all his honor, everything he had left, in an instant.Even if he still had any honor left, to me at that moment, I despised him. I hated him even more, knowing that he wanted to get me still back to use me for his purposes after the man left.The situation continued like that for the next couple of seconds. The man was no doubt considering his options. He had his chance; he should take it. It was obvious what he should choose to do in the end, what he would do any second from now. But to my surprise, he turned around."I'm sorry," he said, giving an apology that was unreal to me as he walked away from the place, leaving the two of us alone
