“How dare you pull something like that?! You made me worried sick!”

“Aww!” Anthony rubbed his right arm which Therese punched heavily. She didn’t care if he was sitting on a hospital bed with a cast on his left leg. She’ll beat him up for almost giving her a heart attack.

“I told you…it wasn’t my fault. The nurse just panicked when I lost consciousness for like five minutes. You know how everyone is anxious here.” He defended himself.

It turned out that Anthony fell miserably from a metal ladder while he was repainting the ceiling of the cafe’s bar. It wasn’t a serious accident, yet it left him with a broken leg.

“Still…”

Therese looked at him with worried eyes. Now that her head was clearer, her heart didn’t flutter anymore when Anthony flashed an embarrassed smile at her direction. The butterflies in her stomach were nowhere to be found too. Worrying for him is like worrying for a brother. She knew that now.

“About the emergency contact thing…sorry about that. I did it when I

    "You did a great job helping my best friend. You deserve a reward." She kneeled down, immediately flattening her tongue along his shaft."H-hah...I didn't do it only for Therese. 'twas for the b-both of them." He stammered when he felt her slender fingers teased his balls. "Mmmm. Since you saved Therese big time, I'll make you feel good tonight. I'm proud of you." His jaw dropped and his stomach flipped at her words, though he would rather die than let her see the effect of them on him. "Can we not talk about other people when we're fucking? You're gonna kill my boner."She giggled. "Aye, aye, Captain!"Jayce was by no means a saint. He had his fair share of hookups here and there, tasting the unique sweetness of every woman he encountered every chance he got and he adored all of them. In that sense, maybe he was no different from his best friend. After all, how did the saying go again? Right. Birds of the same feather flock together. But being with her was different.“S-shit…” H

    2 Months Later“I wonder if I’m wearing the correct attire…”Therese bit her lip while staring at her reflection in the mirror. She wondered if a backless, sparkly blood-red gown was enough to make her look expensive for the night. For the Desmond ball. If she was being honest, she was torn between looking forward to the event and dreading it. Because for starters, she’s never attended such an expensive, elegant party for rich people before. She felt like she would just embarrass herself with her lack of finesse or be out of place due to her clumsiness. But on the other hand, she was excited to feel pretty too! Just the other night, Raven told her that he can’t wait to flex her as his girlfriend. He couldn’t wait to show the world that he had the most beautiful woman as a date for the night. She remembered not being able to hide her blush at his words. Now, she was nervous. “Whatever! I’ll just fake confidence ‘til I’m not faking it anymore.” She mumbled to herself before slidin

    PAST“Congratulations! You have twins!” When the doctor entered Nelle’s room, Leonor almost fainted in nervousness. But hearing the cries of his newborn babies were music to his ears. The face of the woman he loves was filled with exhaustion, yet he could tell that she was fighting the heaviness of her eyelids just to see their sons. “Oh my goodness, Leonor! They look just like you.” Nelle cradled the twins in her arms naturally, placing soft kisses on their foreheads with her eyes brimming with joy. Soon enough, tears streamed down her face while she smiled and looked up to him. If he was being honest, the fact that he became a father at the age of twenty two was not sinking in just yet. But slowly, the young billionaire gulped, reaching for the two swaddles with trembling hands. When he looked down to gaze at his babies’ faces for the first time, his heart found peace. Tears welled from the corner of his eyes and he cowardly sniffed them away.“We’ll call them Warren and Raven.”

    “Think about my offer. I’ll only give it to you once.”Leonor pondered over his father’s words when he got home that night. There was a hollow in his chest as he spent the whole night looking out their bedroom’s window, like a fish stuck in a bowl. It was cruel.Looking back, he thought that the life he chose wasn’t bad. He had no regrets leaving his mansion in exchange for a smaller house with his wife and kids around. Hearing their laughter fuels him everyday and he knew in his heart that he would choose this over and over again, given the chance.“Darling…cough…” Nelle’s husky voice pulled him away from his head.Leonor rushed over to her side, soothing her back with gentle touch. “Hey, don’t push yourself too hard.”“Tell me what’s bothering you.”A beat of silence passed between them as Leonor studied her wife’s tired, sunken face. The moonlight from the window illuminates the love hiding behind the bags under her eyes. It was as tender as yesterday before her suffering came."Not

    PRESENT, DESMOND BALL.There was the voice in her head again.“Ngh...I can't blame him, though. You look magnificent. I'm itching to ruin you."Therese looked around and focused on Raven’s figure beside her at the same time. The warm lights that perfectly matched her mood earlier were now making her dizzy. The music coming from the sound system became too loud for her preference too. Everything made her want to pass out.A few minutes passed and she realized that she couldn't make sense of what was happening around her. She just knew that after a strange man walked in, Leonor said something and exited the stage, motivating the guests to continue enjoying themselves for the night.If she could trust her judgement, she could tell that Raven barely moved an inch since then. “Are you okay?” Jayce was the first to notice her. “Yeah. I’m good.” She lied. She didn’t want to worry anyone, after all. “You look pale.” She believed him. Her skin felt cold but there was a burning sensation ins

    “Let’s cut the bullshit, Warren. What did you do to Therese? What do you want from me?” Raven desperately tried to keep his voice low but his temper wasn’t keeping up. He saw a few guests raise their smartphones in secret to steal a quick snap of him and his brother. Once again, Warren took a sip from his glass of wine until the alcohol was almost gone. “Let’s just say I gave her a nice time.” There was a sinister glint in his eyes as he thought about the memoirs of that night. Anger flared in Raven’s chest but he didn’t say a word. He let his brother continue. “And what I want from you is simple. Everything.” “What?!”“Everything that you have. I’m going to take it all and ruin it.” His blood ran cold. How could he appear out of the blue after all these years just to turn into a monster? Raven’s chest ached as he thought about the older brother he admired when they were little. He gritted his teeth and willed himself not to lose his composure. That brother was gone. The man stand

    PAST“I’m already here! I’ve done everything you said!” Stephanie fought the tears that threatened to fall from her eyes. At 5AM sharp, she put on her most casual clothes and cover-ups so no one would be able to track her. She made sure to go to the airport quietly and leave her so-called family in favor of a better future. "You fucking told me that you’ll fetch me here yourself.” Stephanie’s heart was banging loudly on her chest as she tried to contain her emotions and the volume of her voice. She’s starting to gather too much attention. But how could she calm down? He told her to leave Keith and Raven. He promised her a secured career. A new beginning. And now…“You’ll be fine. I have my own shits to deal with. You’ll still be under my wing.” He responded nonchalantly and his voice over the phone grated her nerves. "What about your son, huh? What do you think will happen if I expose the news to the Desmonds that Keith is yours?” She tried her best to sound intimidating but the

    BAM! BAM! BAM!"T-Therese...Please, I know you're in there. Let me in!" Raven slurred, his vision blurry because of the alcohol he chugged a few minutes later. Despite Jayce's protest, he found himself heading towards Aly's apartment and banging her gate. The doorbell was useless in catching her attention anyway. "Dude. Cut it out. What if someone sees you and makes a mess of your reputation again?" His best friend was having a hard time ripping his practically glued figure to the gate. He looked around to confirm that there are no prying eyes that would put them in danger. Jayce concentrated on pulling Raven's shoulders with all his might but the miserable man wasn't budging. "Fuck, you're as heavy as a boulder." "I need to...hick...see her, Jayce! I need to t-talk to my girlfriend! Hick!" Raven sniffed two, three times before wiping away the stubborn tears that kept intensifying his blurry vision.BAM! BAM!"Therese! T-therese, baby...Open the door and hear me out! I didn't do a

    “Are you busy?” “Not really.” There was urgency behind Nelle's voice that Leonor found hard to ignore even if the line of the call was a bit choppy. Today, they had their daily video call at 9AM as the DesmondTech CEO was getting ready for his flight to see her again. He set up his phone while he had his things inside his luggage. This time, he plans to stay longer with Nelle in her hometown so it was given that he would need a lot of clothes to bring. A month or two...yeah, that would suffice his hunger for her presence for now. "I need to tell you something. Do you remember the man who attacked us with a gun?" Leonor stopped folding one of his jackets midway as he focused his attention to her image. "What about him?" Nelle took a deep breath before angling her camera closer to her face. "Well, it seems like the authorities have finally squeezed something out of him. He said he works under a woman named Stephanie White."He furrowed his eyebrows at the name. "Does it ring a be

    "Ugh! Were you always this heavy?" Stephanie struggled to breathe as she dragged Raven's unconscious body towards the bed. Well, she realized she shouldn't be complaining when the drug worked wonders! Just one sip from the tea and he was knocked out like a horse in a tranquilizer. She took a mental note to thank that desperate man from Nelle's hometown. He was the one who delivered the drug she now likes to call the wonder sleeper. "Hngh! I..should have..." Stephanie pulled and pushed her ex-boyfriend's body until they reached the entrance of her door. Before executing her plan, she thought of asking one of her men for help but it was too risky to reveal such detail. If she wants to succeed, she must do this alone. "...led us near the bedroom instead, damn it!" She pulled up her curly hair in a bun when she managed to place Raven's body over the mattress, the foam bounced when she practically threw over. Wiping a bead of sweat that travelled down her temple, she proceeded to work

    PRESENTRaven was in the middle of analyzing the latest data from their med booths when all of a sudden, his phone rang violently. He grabbed the device absentmindedly and looked at the screen to see an unregistered number dialing him.“Hello? Who’s this?” He furrowed his eyebrows as he continued browsing on the printed graphs on his table.There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line that almost made him hung up. Sighing in annoyance, Raven thought that it was just another one of those prank calls he often receives from random people."I don't have time for this. If you don't speak anytime soon, I'm blocking you." He gave the caller another second to speak. And when they didn't, he pulled his phone away from his ears and was about to finally press the end call button. "Goodb--""Wait. It's me....It's me."He froze. Slowly, he placed his phone again on his ear to confirm that he wasn't being delusional. "Stephanie? How did you get my new number? I obviously changed my ol

    PAST“W-what…what…” Raven stammered as he held the pregnancy test showing two lines with trembling hands. His eyes flew open as he turned her head to an equally shaken Stephanie who was so close to crying. “I bet you know what those two lines meant.” She said as her gaze slid past him towards the window, a faint blush covering her cheeks. Raven saw the muscle on her neck contract as she swallowed hard. "I was just finding the right time to tell you..." "Since when?" "Two weeks ago." Raven felt a lump at the back of his throat. He took a look at the lines again and finally, reality sank in. He's going to be a father! God, he's going to start his family with the woman that he loves. A wave of pure happiness washed over him, causing his eyes to sting with unshed tears of joy. "Hey, w-what do you say? Would you like me to keep--"This is their chance to start again. Raven chuckled and rushed to hug Stephanie who was flabbergasted by his action. He was too happy, too shocked to notic

    PASTSLAM! CRASH!Raven threw a glass of water on the wall, making sure that it was reduced to shards. He was buzzing with anger. Today, he caught Stephanie in the arms of another man after she promised him that she would finally change. That she would take their relationship seriously. It turned out that everything that came out of her mouth when they made-up was nothing but bullshit.“You told me you won’t do that anymore!” He screamed at the top of his lungs, his strong emotion getting ahead of him. He couldn't stomach the image of Stephanie making out with an older man just to boost her career. "I believe you! I can't believe I fucking believe you!" Raven was prepared to throw the second fragile object his hands would touch. But Stephanie suddenly matched the volume and rage in his voice. "For fuck's sake Raven! I told you I will secure this deal and that was it! Couldn't you be patient enough?! Now you ruined my one last shot at the show I've been eyeing since the beginning!"

    PRESENT.“Welcome back to CelebTV, the home of the hottest and latest gossip in the world of famous faces!” The reporter exaggeratingly gasped for air as she covered her mouth and elbowed her blonde partner. “Have you heard about this, girl?”“What is it, girl?” “Stephanie White, one of the country’s most successful and prettiest runway models is back! After making names and stirring waves abroad, it seems like our girl would like to settle in the country for good. I swear to god, she’s perfect in every way. How I wish…” Therese grabbed the remote control and lowered the TV's volume as she scooted her back closer to Raven in bed. The reporter's voice faded in the background as her boyfriend snaked his arm around her naked torso. She could still feel the delicious ache in her muscles from their love making. "I saw your reaction, you know?"Raven sighed heavily, hiding his face on the crook of her neck. "What reaction?""Back when we had dinner and we saw Stephanie. You looked like y

    From that point on, Raven saw red. “You motherfucker!” He yelled with his tone full of anger as he stormed inside and landed one solid punch on the bastard’s face. The force was so strong that the man instantly fell on the ground with a bleeding nose. "Oh my god, Raven, wait!" Stephanie's anxious voice faded in the background.When he saw the man struggling to get up and blinking his eyes rapidly as if he was trying to regain normal vision, the young Desmond wasted no time and took the opportunity to further his damage. He straddled the man while grabbing him by the collar. "You fucking stinky pervert....What have you been doing to my girl?!" He asked in gritted teeth and a pair of bloodshot eyes. It's ironic how he uttered such a question in hopes for an honest answer only to allow his body to move on its own without hearing him first. "Cough...cough...""DIE!" Raven kept punching him, again and again. He made sure that there are no surface of his skin that was left clean. His le
