CARLA
"You must be joking. Carla is your sister?" Pedro asked, almost laughing at what Diego had said."Diego Smith, brother to Carla Parker? This is the most expensive joke in the world." Jessica laughed out.Their reaction to Diego's word didn't bother me. I was more concerned about why Diego would refer me as his sister.Did he have a change of heart after remembering our parents are getting married?"Stop this joke, Diego. This is not funny.""You'll know the difference between funny and serious when I get you and your handmaid troubling Carla again," Diego said, displaying his arrogant nature at Pedro and Jessica.For the first time I found Diego's arrogant nature pleasing to my ears.The looks on Jessica's face, when he called her a handmaid, left me smiling with delight."I won't repeat myself again.""Are you threatening me? " Pedro asked, unable to hide his shock anymore.That's when I felt Diego's hand falling on my shoulder. It sent my body vibrating, as I lifted my eyes to look at my soon to be step brother."You've been warned. Let's go Carla, " Diego said.He took hold of my hand, walked out of Pedro and Jessica's sight with me following him from behind.Staring at this stubborn man in front, I felt nothing but joy taking over my heart. He just appeared from nowhere and placed those two in a shock mode.I felt thrilled.Eyes fell on Diego and I, as he kept walking away with me without minding the gaze of the students around."That's Diego Smith!""He's with her?""Are they lovers?""I heard him call her his sister. I didn't know they were related.""Waw, she's so lucky."Butterflies danced within me, followed by courage engulfing all around.With pride, I drew myself closer to Diego, cupping my arm around his, as we walked together.I looked at him and found his dazzling green eyes on me. He gave a killer smirk, navigating his eyes forward."Thank you so much Diego. Even though I still detest you, I like the fact that you and I are going to be family. Your image is just what I need to get back on my feet." I smiled, showing myself so everyone can see me.Diego took me to his car, opening up the door for me. I stepped in, sitting inside like I own it.It's the first time I'll be stepping into his car. If not because of the fact that his father is getting married to my Mom, there's no way he's going to allow me enter or even touch his car.He got into the car and drove off, leaving everyone back at Crescent college, gawking."How was my entrance? I guess I came at the right time to the battlefield," Diego said, driving.I faced him, asking, "Why are you here?""Is that a way to say thank you?" He lifted his brow at me, giving that nasty glare."You will only get that when I get my answer. Why did you come to my school? Is it to see me or to see your friend?" I questioned."Don't push it, " He said, stopping his car right at the corner of the road.Diego faced me and said, "I didn't come over to see you nor Pedro. I just happen to pass by coincidentally. So, I thought of stopping by to see what my step sister is doing. Is that a crime?"He tilted his head.I don't know if I should believe him or not, but I can't help but feel glad that he came.What he did to Pedro and Jessica brought a smile to my face.The sight of Jessica holding Pedro angered me deeply. She's not even ashamed of the fact that she's dating my boyfriend.Everyone knows me as Pedro's girlfriend, but now Jessica has taken that spot.If Diego hadn't shown up to threaten Pedro, I wouldn't have seen that glitter in his eyes.Yes, Pedro is jealous to see Diego with me.He couldn't believe it when Diego called me his sister.I know how to make him suffer more."Are we now going with the silent treatment?" Diego asked, bringing me to my sense.He rolled his eyes at me, starting the car and driving ahead.What's up with him anyway?Just because he silenced Pedro and Jessica, he won't allow me to rest.Gosh! I can't believe I'm doing this."Thank you," I appreciated, trying to make it sound believing while facing the other way."It's a bit late, but it's fine.""I'm going to need your help again," I said, turning over to find his eyes on me already."What kind of help?" He asked, giving that suspicious look."It's a simple task. I want you to help me get Pedro jealous. Like I want to use you to annoy him," I explained myself to Diego.He carefully drove his car to a corner, parking it again just to face me."You want your step brother to help you in making his friend jealous?" He asked, lifting his brow at me.Why is he emphasizing on that word now?"Yes, I want to make Pedro jealous of me. That's the only way I can make him regret ever leaving me for that cheer leader. I want him to crawl back to me, begging me to come back to his life, " I said, visualizing the whole scene."Will you help me?" I asked.That's when I saw his eyes shimmer at me. The sight of that took my mind back to that day at the hotel, when I asked Diego to help me out.A chilling wave ran down my spine, as I asked myself if I'm doing the right thing. But before I could ponder on it, Diego stretched his hand out at me, agreeing to my plan."I will help you, if that's what you want," He said, letting out a smile.“You have a deal.” His hand came closer.Since I needed this to work out for me, I took hold of Diego's hand, accepting the deal.CARLAA few days after that incident at school, students at Crescent college couldn't stop talking about Diego and I.The school press had even done a paper with the both of us on it, holding ourselves arm to arm, right on the front page.This pleased me greatly."Pedro must be biting his hands just seeing this." I laughed."Carla dear, are you busy?" Mom came into my room."No. Is there anything?" I asked, keeping my phone aside.Mom sat next to me and shared, "Carla dear. Your step father and I will be heading to Italy for a trip.""Oh waw! The wedding hasn't even taken place and you two are already going for a honeymoon. Nice." I winked at Mom."Keep shut, you naughty girl."I laughed at Mom."Carlos has a business meeting to face overseas. He wants me to come along with him for a month.""A month?" I gazed, finding it too long."I know, it's too much, but it's important for him to head there and handle all the work at Italy. He doesn't want to feel all lonely there, so I have to g
CARLAI felt disgusted by my own moaning coming from the phone in Diego's hand.I stared at my face, watching how I held him with so much pleasure, as he rode me like one who has been starved for ages.I can't believe he had his own camera filming us!"Just try me and see, Carla," He threatened, almost in a husky voice.I directed my eyes back at him, staring into those green eyes of his.I hate him so much."I've seen how your mother wraps herself around my father. Those two are the definition of lovebirds. Just imagine how hurt she'd be hurt when she sees this.""Don't you dare, Diego!" I raised my voice, making an attempt to move nearer, showing my anger. But I've forgotten he had me pinned against the wall.He scoffed, saying, "One mistake from you, Carla, and I'll make you regret ever crossing paths with me."I glared at Diego on hearing his threats. Why did the heavens have to make this man a part of my life? I don't blame my mother for this. She needed love again, and it found
CARLA"Why aren't you saying anything, Carla? I hope Diego isn't covering up for you?" Mom asked.If only she knows what was currently happening behind this phone.Diego's hands came right at my chest, almost grabbing my boobs. That sent me yelling out, pulling from his grip and once."I'M A GOOD GIRL!" I yelled, running straight for the stairs to avoid Diego.I heard him chuckling while running. It's obvious that he wasn't coming after me, but making fun of me from his point."Geez! You don't have to yell out, Carla," Mom said, referring to the tone I had used.I climbed the first step and stopped, apologizing to her for the way I responded."It was a roach that caused it, Mom.""Really? A roach in Diego's home?" Mom asked, sounding like one in doubt."Yeah, a big one," I said, looking straight at Diego. The annoying man was leaning against the wall, staring at me. He winked at me, letting out a creepy smile that got me shivering."Quit your nonsense, Carla." Mom laughed at me."Don'
CARLAI heard the sound of Diego's car engine picking up. That immediately gave me an answer to my undecided question."Wait!" I yelled, rushing out of the mansion to catch up with him.But by the time I got there, Diego had driven off with speed."Just look at him!" I groaned, watching as his car distanced from the mansion, heading right for the road.I felt like throwing out a curse word, but that's when I reminded myself whose fault it was. "I was just taking my time to think. Gosh, now I'll be heading to school alone without him. So much for helping out," I said, rolling my eyes.Just when I was set to leave on foot, one of Diego's guards rushed up to me and said, " Mr Smith has placed me in charge of you, ma'am.""Huh? Placed you in charge of me? I don't get." I lifted my brow, wondering if Diego hired one of his guards to monitor my every movement.But the guard said, " He instructed that I take you to school in one of his cars."The guard points at another Rolls Royce like Dieg
CARLA"She will not join our team?" Jessica repeated, stepping closer while crossing her arms at me.I felt my heart swelling with anger while looking at her face. Pride, that's what was written all over her."But Jessy, there's no biggie if we add her.""Yeah, If she's not that good we'll teach her. That's how Lola was when she first came."The girls said to Jessica, thinking she doesn't want me on the team because she feels I have no skills.But that's where they are wrong. They are failing to see why Jessica doesn't want me on the cheerleading team."Are you girls deaf? I said she can't be on the team," Jessica sparked at her friends, leaving them surprised at her attitude."I'm the team leader here. I'm the one who would decide the person that can join and the one that can stay. And I say that this slut...""What?!" My eyes came large at what Jessica called me.The others gasped out on hearing her."You cannot join my team," Jessica said, standing before me, with a smile creeping a
DIEGO"Get the conference room set. I don't want any mistakes made. It needs to be perfect." I walked towards the lift with my secretary by my side."Yes, Mr Smith. Anything else?" She asked, still trying to match her pace with mine.I could tell from the corners of my eyes, but I didn't care about looking at her.On getting to the private life meant for me alone, a guard was set to open it when I directed my eyes on my secretary, only to find the two upper buttons of her shirt, opened. Her Cleavage were bulging out, as she kept swaying them slowly in my front, repeating the same question."Anything else, Mr Smith? " She bit her lower lip seductively.As far as I remember, this bitch had her top closed corporately. I can tell she opened it just to get my attention.Having no time for her nonsense, I said, "Get the room set and button up before stepping in there."Her cheek flashes with redness, filled with embarrassment. She lowered her head down and said, " As you wish, sir."I humme
DIEGOWith my hand, my office came open with force, as I pulled Clara in with me, shutting the door with her back against it. She gave a soft gasp when my hands came pressing against hers on the door, locking my lips once again with her.Her body moving with a sway, begging me to get closer to her.I couldn't resist her charm.I needed her badly.Without hesitating, I had my hand reaching for the knob, locking the door, before my arms lifted Clara off the floor and to the couch in my office.Her arms around my neck as I gently placed her down on the couch, trailing her body with my lips.Her scent taking over, slowly driving me nuts. Even if I want to draw back, I don't think I'll be able to let go that easily.There's something about Clara that keeps pulling me to her.I felt her hands on my suit, taking it off. She had me in her clutches, her body begging me not to stop.I wasn't planning on doing that. She started the fire in me, so she has to turn it off.My hands went for her sk
CLARAKNOCK! KNOCK!! "Mom, just a little more, please," I mumbled in bed, trying to enjoy my beauty sleep. But the knock wouldn't stop.It came in once again, getting my eyes opened, and making me realize where exactly I was."I'm home?" I uttered, lingering my eyes around the room."How did I get here? I don't remember stepping into the room or..." I paused, remembering Diego."I was at his office. Did he bring me home?" I looked around again, seeing clearly that I was indeed in my room.I know I fell asleep at Diego's office when he stepped out to attend to something. I got so bored and dozed off.I thought I'd wake up later on, but with the aches I was having at that time, I didn't have the zeal or even the strength to get up."I guess I overslept," I said, rubbing the back of my neck.Where I sat, I heard the sound of the knock that woke me from my sleep, coming in again.That got me dashing out of bed and straight up to answer the door.On opening it, I met a maid standing outsi
