"How did you know?" Kio exclaimed. His eyes shift from me and Gresya so now Gresya knows that we are talking about her and if I am Gresya who is part of this so-called dirty little secret. I would be nervous too. She is probably rummaging in her head to find some answer.I grab Kio by his pulse to the corner of the dancefloor away from people so we can continue to talk about this. When my eyes meet him again for the second time. He seems calmer like he knows now that he shouldn't have reacted the way he did. He looked around just to make sure that everyone was back minding their own business and it seemed like that until I found my fiancé eyeing the two of us curiously and Gresya was doing the same thing. "I didn't. It was a wild guess but boy you are bad at hiding secrets and how come you don't lie? How come you are a terrible liar when you are a notorious playboy and fuck boy?" I asked him. Kio scoffed, offended by what I just called him. I mean, that is the truth! "Is there some
"When did you two start with your fuck buddy set up? Come on tell me! I love stories like this!" I urged her and she stared at me with her eyes wide open as if she found my words too scandalous. I rolled my eyes at her. Rory would probably never do it to her friend but if I am not playing Rory here and I am friends with her as Isla Therese. I would have pulled her hair the moment I heard from Kio that he and Gresya are fucking secretly. "Uh-uh. Don't you dare give me that innocent look? Stop acting all so innocent. There is no way you find the word fuck too scandalous for your liking when you are being nasty with my brother-in-law!" I told him faking my annoyance as I tried to call him out but I guess she was not used with this kind of humor for I saw sadness cross in her eyes. She thinks that I am really upset with her. "I am not mad at you. I am just saying. Just tell me how it starts. I need a little break from all the people at the rehearsal dinner. We could use this break becau
When the rehearsal dinner ended. I ended up doing what his mother wanted even if he was against the idea that I would be away from him for two days. I somehow managed to convince him that it was just for three nights and two days. After that, I will be coming home to him and no one else while he'll never come home to an empty house. It feels like my heart is being torn and ripped apart as I said knowing that Sunday will be our last day together. "Here. Take this," Nicho muttered. He took the piece of paper from the table and it hung around his fingers for a few more seconds before I sauntered and cut the distance between the two of us.No one in their family is comfortable with the idea of me spending these coming days with them so I am staying at Heritage Lancaster. I mentally rolled my eyes. News flash, I do not want to stay with them either. "What is this? A wedding vow?" I asked jokingly but I immediately closed my lips after I saw the first word. It is indeed a wedding vow writt
His hand crawls from my legs up to my thighs. A muffled moan escaped my lips as his finger rubbed the material of my underwear against my sensitivity. It was never a good idea to wear a dress and have him around for we would always end up doing something like this. "I want your tongue," he whispered as he was busy painting my jaw with his tongue. The moment I opened my mouth. He instantly went for it. His mouth expertly suckles my tongue, tugging it lightly and then he worded it with his. I was caught off guard when Kairos withdraw his hand from my pussy and pulled away from me. Seconds after that, the elevator opened and an old woman walked in. Our eyes met and she stared at the two of us with suspicion lurking in her eyes. Been there, done that. It seemed like she was fully aware of the thing that we were doing before she walked in. The moment she tore her eyes off me. I glance at Kairos and chuckle before I rest my head against his shoulder. I just got this thing straightened out
"Rory, is there something that you might want to tell me? One of these days? In the far future? On our wedding day?" He asked. Holding my breath it started to feel as if my body would soon collapse. I stared straight into his eyes faking the feeling of confusion.The corner of my lips stretched into an innocent smile. This is what I do best, to pretend as if I know nothing when I seriously know what's going on."None. Why? Is there something that you want to know about me?" I asked him back. His grip on the steering wheel tightens and when I look up to him I see him clenching his jaw.Why do I feel like Kairos knew something? Not the full story or the full-on details but he has his suspicion and he might be able to catch me and the Spencers with all these lies.Kairos stepped into the gas and started to drive faster than usual. It bothers me but I didn't want to say anything. Grasping on the seatbelt. I purse my lips in a thin line, bearing the silence between the two of us and soon en
"Because I already miss you so much, Isla... and I can't get mad at you anymore," Kairos said my real name the second time around and I don't think he realized that he did. When he said Isla while we are on the way here in the hotel the first time around. He meant my name and Isla de Santillan is just his sleek way of making it seem like he is still clueless that it is my name. He called my name back then to stop me from going on about Gresya and Kio because he had enough of that conversation. "I'll see you at our wedding Rory," he said with a faint smile on his lips. Why call me by her name when you already know that I am not her? I'd rather you call me by mine and get angry with me, punish me for fooling you. I raise my hand and graciously wave back at him after he looks back at me before he completely gets inside his car. Heart thumping not knowing whether I'd tell the Spencers or not. I press a button for the elevator to close. Everything that happened within the last two hour
"Sneak out and meet me at my suite." I discreetly look around before I crumple the piece of paper in my hand once I'm sure that no one is staring in my direction. It felt like Kairos gave me an ultimatum to come up at him and confess to him about the deal that I had made with the Spencers. If I did that, I think he would forgive me but he might cancel the wedding at the last minute and that's going to be my fault. Both Diana and Niklaus will blame and I might end up not getting anything from this deal of ours. They can't take back that half million that they had transferred to my bank account. I need that so I can sweetly start a new life. "What are you doing?" I immediately took a step to widen the distance between Niklaus and I. The double doors of the chapel are closed. It's just me and the Spencers standing outside for my entrance before I walk down the aisle. Nicholas glanced to where the head of the organizers was, telling me to be silent, but I couldn't. I don't want his fathe
Nika stared at my finger. Her eyes were filled with curiosity and I soon heard her shoot a question, "What are you doing?" I stopped playing with my finger where I used to wear the engagement ring that Kairos crafted on his own for me—for Rory rather.It's been a week since our wedding day happened. When I heard him call my name. I thought that he would call off the wedding but to my surprise. The wedding pushed through and the Spencers didn't even know that Kairos found out about their schemes. He told me that they should never have found out that he already knew. I just know right there and then that he has a plan to get back at them. I just don't know what exactly it is. Afraid that I might face a new level of anger from him. I kept my lips shut and proceeded with our deal like nothing happened."Nothing." The corner of my lips lifts, "I have these rings that I like. I was wearing them for a couple of days and got used to them but I lost them. I used to play with them unconsciously,
