Maridona had never felt so happy in her life when she got married to Jacoben Alonzo, the man of her dreams and her best friend. What more could she ask for?

Aside from his well-defined manly features, he is sweet, understanding, and honest. He is a man that is beautiful from inside and out. Even though he was orphaned at an early age, he managed to keep his family's business. He sometimes struggles because he lacks experience, but he is hard-working and does not give up easily. He is not perfect, but he is more than enough for her.

If it wasn't for the fact that she was hiding ugly things about herself and her family, she might have been happier and less worried. Because after her marriage with Jacoben, their filthy secret is gradually coming out.

"What did you say?!" Shane's voice echoed in the living room.

"Shane, please lower your voice. Someone might hear us," Maridona begged her scowling sister.

Shane took a step between them, her eyes big and round in anger. "How can you be so s

    "I, I'm just comforting her," Kieran covered her, giving her a worried side look. He agreed to keep the secret, so she trusts he will not say anything to her husband. Jacoben can't know yet. It will put them all in trouble.Jacoben frowned as he approached them. "Comforting her for what?" Her husband carefully held one of her arms and gently pulled her toward him. "What's wrong, hon? Why are you crying?""She's worried for the baby. Her pregnancy's complicated, so she's a bit scared. I was just trying to comfort her," Kieran explained.Kieran was taken aback when Jacoben glared at him like he had done something wrong."He's telling the truth," she said. "Sorry if I made you worry."Jacoben's face softened, but doubt was still evident in his eyes. Her husband is smart. He must have noticed something strange. She must think of a way to get rid of his suspicion."Is that so?" Jacoben said in a low but emphatic voice. "You know you can tell me, right? I can comfort you too.""I know, I kn

    Maridona did nothing but reveal the whole truth to Jacoben about her and their family's secret. She told him everything about how it all began. Starting from when she was a sickly child leading to the day her father decided to clone her.Since Maridona was born, she has been weak and has a strange disease slowly killing her. Her own blood was poisoning her insides, and she was often rushed to the hospital.No doctor or scientist can answer what kind of illness she caught. When she was only ten years old, the doctors gave her only five years left to live.But because of her father's curious nature to everything that baffles him, who is also a mad scientist, he could not stop himself from performing tests and experiments on his daughter's body, especially her blood. He did not stop until he found an explanation for her strange condition.After five years of intense and non-stop research, Victor successfully cured her by the time she was supposed to be dead from her unknown illness.Her

    Jacoben's eyes narrowed at this then quickly stood up with clenched fists. "I really think that's not necessary. Thank you for the offer, but we will be taking our leave." "Don't you dare oppose me," Victor scowled. "You are in no place to make a decision here. I am the head of this family… my dear son-in-law," he said firmly, full of intimidation. Jacoben's forehead furrowed as he looked intently at Victor. "Good thing I'm not a Nobles." Maridona gasped, surprised by her husband's remark. She could feel the tension building between Jacoben and Victor. She nervously looked at her father's face and then at her sister, who was shaking her head. A few seconds passed before her father reacted to Jacoben's defiance. Victor let out an amused laugh, and then his face became serious again. "Fool... What a complete fool," he mumbled while shaking his head. Jacoben's jaw clenched as he couldn't stop the emotion he had been holding back for a while. He gently grabbed Maridona's arm and help

    Maridona frowned as she listened to Jacoben and Kieran discuss the details of their plan to escape to another country. They did not have her full support on this. For her, running from her father was like going through a needle's hole. It was impossible.A few months have passed since Jacoben discovered her secret. And he did not cease to think of ways how they could get out of their situation. At the same time, he followed her father's orders compliantly so as not to raise any suspicions that they were scheming. "What do you think, hon?" Jacoben inquired, who had just finished explaining his new plan of escape. They are presently having their meeting at the balcony in their two-story contemporary home that Jacoben bought two weeks ago, far from NNA's eyes and ears.Maridona gazed down at her big belly. She gingerly rubbed it before turning to her husband. "That's too risky for the baby and me," she answered, sighing. Their plan changed several times because something always got in t

    Maridona started sobbing fast and loudly. It took her several seconds before she could respond to her impatient sister."But, But— This is my child."She heard her sister cuss on the other end."Shane, please... Please...." she continued to beg."Shut it!" Shane shrieked, annoyed by her plea. "Just stop, okay? If you don't cease your delusions, I'll tell Daddy what you are up there, and you won't like it. You know how he is when he gets mad. He's not so merciful, Sister. You know it!""Shane, please, I ca—""I got to go!""Shane!"She was frozen in place when Shane cut their line. Her hands lost strength, dropping the phone to the floor. She gasped and covered her mouth when a strong wave of emotion surged within her.No, no... No!.She felt like a monster was devouring her, and she couldn't do anything. Her tears flooded her face while hopelessness enveloped her.Her limbs weakened, and her entire body quivered. She held on to the wall to prevent herself from falling.One of the maid

    Maridona can't explain the joy she felt when she hugged her newborn baby for the first time. Her tears started to fall as she watched the best thing that had come to her. "Oh, my love... You're so beautiful...." she whispered exuberantly with a broad smile while staring at the infant's delicate face. She can feel her heart overflow with happiness. She couldn't take her eyes off her little one like there were no one else in the world except the two of them. She could not believe that an angel was given to her despite her filth, the impurity of her blood. And with all the guilt of letting her family do the most heinous crimes, she cannot help but think very low of herself. How could she be deserving of this most precious being? This baby is too pure for a garbage like her, but here it is, peacefully sleeping in her arms like it is the perfect place. The feeling is overwhelming but also wonderful. It was amazing. "Oh, look at you. So adorable!" Maridona squealed, ensuring her voice w

    Maridona could not explain the strange pounding in her chest on their way to her father's personal laboratory. They have been on the road for two hours already.She carried her child while Jacoben sat beside her at the back and Victor at the front."I don't feel good about this," she whispered.Jacoben gave her a worried look. "Will you be okay?"She nodded. "I have to be. I hope Lanz is all right. I feel guilty for getting him involved."Her husband did not answer with a dark expression on his face. It made her more anxious. What happened to their best friend?Jacoben looked outside the car's window before turning to her again. "Are you familiar with the lab we're going to?"She nodded while glancing outside. The surroundings have become familiar. "Actually, we're almost there," she added.A few minutes later, the car pulled over. They entered a small cabin in the forest where a secret laboratory lay beneath it.This is Victor's very first laboratory. This is where her father used to

    "You?..."Even though her eyelids were heavy, Lucila forced her eyes open and peered at the woman who entered her room sneakily. The lights weren't turned on as if the stranger's visit was a secret. The woman was standing just a few steps from where she was lying."Do you remember me, Lucila?" the woman said almost in a whisper.She frowned upon realizing who her surprise visitor was. "Why are you here?" she asked back with a snort."I want to make a deal with you."She sneered and then narrowed her eyes."What does the princess of the Nobles need from a lowly creature like me?" "I want you to do something for me. If you do what I want, I will make sure you can escape from here with your child."She stifled a laugh and then sat up from her bed. The sound of the chains attached to her feet and hands echoed in the small room with her every movement."You're going to save me?" Her one eyebrow rose, looking at the woman up and down with sarcasm. "You can't even save yourself from your f

    Lesley can hear her heart beating loudly inside her chest. Her palms clenched in nervousness as they stared into each other's eyes."I… I got very angry with you, and I was bitter… But I still love you..."She saw his face getting redder. She could feel herself slowly being swallowed by his gaze that seemed to penetrate deep inside her."How about the things you said before I left?" he asked in his low and deep voice. "Do you want me?"She slightly raised his eyebrows at this and pursed her lips."What do you mean?" she asked nervously.The atmosphere is getting hotter. She knew what he was talking about. But it was too embarrassing to admit now without the alcohol in her system."You remember it, right? Everything you said... and what we almost did here in your room," He brought his face closer to hers. "Lesley, tell me honestly... Do you want me inside you?"Lesley can hear the loud beating inside her chest as if she will have a heart attack at any moment. Only one person has the ab

    "Why are we here on my bed? There's a table," Lesley calmly asked Kieran, who was comfortably eating on top of her bed, positioning himself in the middle while she was at the end as if she was the guest and he owned the space."Because eating is better when done in bed," he answered with a meaningful smile.Lesley understood the double meaning in his statement. She stared at his face flatly, initially wanting to refute him, but she decided just to ignore him. "Besides, this is where we used to eat. It's more comfortable. I promise I won't make a mess," Kieran added.She sighed. She agreed to talk to him tonight about their relationship, especially those things she said and acted when she was drunk.But is this the right decision, biting Kieran’s bait and letting him into her room?She stared at the tray of food resting on her lap for a few seconds and then at Kieran's food. She frowned, shifting her gaze to Kieran’s face."Anything wrong? Don't you like it?" he asked."I'm just wonder

    Lesley stared intently at him for a few seconds before sighing heavily. "Fine," she finally agreed, walking to a table nearby. And then she started to put her things away. "Instead of moving on with each other, I messed with your mind again," she murmured, then looked straight at him. "This is my fault. I'm sorry.""No. It's not your fault!" He exclaimed, shaking his head. "It was me. I did this. If I hadn't asked you for that one last kiss, last night wouldn't have happened."She paused, frowning at him. "What are you implying?""I made you feel something in that kiss, and you can't forget me," he answered so casually.Lesley scoffed, shaking her head. "I don't even know what to say. Can you stop assuming?"He walked to her, slightly bending down to put his mouth closer to her ears. "You miss me… And you want me…."Lesley stepped back and glared at him. If only those stares could cut him, he would be in pieces."I'm being serious," he immediately said while holding back a grin. "But

    Lesley groaned painfully from the sudden throbbing in her head as soon as she woke up, the effect of the few glasses of alcohol she drank last night. She doesn't feel like getting up with how heavy her body feels until something suddenly occurs to her. She sprang up, sharply inhaling while covering her mouth with both hands. Her eyes widened in disbelief, recalling the events of last night."No... No, no, no!"She grabbed her hair and shook her head, wishing it was a dream.'What have I done?!'She closed her eyes tightly, biting her lips. She bent until her forehead touched her knees, burying her face in shame. If only the ground would swallow her right now. How will she deal with Kieran now? She doesn't even know if she still has a face to show him after her actions last night. "Lesley, are you awake?"Her breathing hitched when she heard the voice of the last man she wanted to see today. Her face lost its complexion as she looked towards the door.She remembered that Kieran pro

    "What… What do you mean?" Kieran asked, staring intently at her face. "You're asking me why it has to be the last kiss? Do you... Do you want more?"Lesley's heart was beating so fast that she could hear its deafening pounding.She could not take her gaze off Kieran's eyes, which were also fixed on her, even though she felt like she was melting to the ground.Her expression remained brave and confident even though her thoughts were getting tangled in her brain.'What are you doing, Lesley?!' she scolded herself in her mind.She can already see that she will regret this in the morning. But she can't do anything but continue what she started. And she couldn't stop herself either, as if she had lost control."What's wrong with that?" she continued.There flared a strange sparkle in Kieran's eyes. He was speechless for a couple of seconds before he could respond to her."D-Do you... Do you mean it? Seriously—"He suddenly paused when he realized something. He blew violently and shook his

    "Can I kiss you one last time?"Lesley caught her breath at Kieran’s sudden request. Her heart rate doubled and she froze in place."Please?" he pleaded.She gulped as she couldn't take her gaze off his pitiful expression, especially his eyes that had turned gray.She slightly pressed her lips for a split second while trying her best to control the crazy beating of her heart.How can she say no to him with that kind of expression on his face? He looks pitiful, but at the same time, irresistibly adorable."Okay..." she answered absent-mindedly.Kieran wasted no time. He let go of her hand and stepped closer so that their bodies were almost touching. Then he cupped both of her cheeks gently while staring intently at her face as if he had been looking forward to this opportunity for a very long time.She held tightly to the hem of his black t-shirt and then closed her eyes as he slowly brought their faces closer.A second later, she felt his soft lips gently touching hers, and her heart

    Lesley took her deepest breath and then looked ahead. She decided to go to the training grounds to warm up. Rio might be there now to start their new training."Lesley!"She scrambled to her feet when she heard Kieran's voice calling out to her."Lesley, please wait!"She ignored him until he finally caught up to her."I swear I didn't mean to eavesdrop," he said.She took a deep breath and slowly faced him."Don't worry about it. It doesn't matter," she coldly responded.Kieran just smiled, then he held out a clean towel familiar to her. "I wanted to give this back to you."She frowned. "Is it mine?""Yes. It fell on the training grounds the last time we talked there. I washed it, so it's clean."She stared at his eyes for a few seconds, and then she averted her gaze immediately as if burned by something she saw in them."Thank you," she said, almost choking on the word."You're welcome," he answered sweetly.Lesley stared at Kieran again, which seemed strange. He appeared oddly dif

    The sun had not risen yet, but Lesley was already busy helping Avery inspect the food rations that arrived at the hideout every two days. She volunteered to help because she wanted to know something that would help in her plan."Are you only assigned to food?" she asked as Avery busied herself with several pages of paper containing lists of the rations they had received."Yep," her friend answered without looking at her."What about other things? Like guns and medicines?""We have other people for that. I was only assigned to food rations because eighty percent of it comes from our family.""I see..." she trailed. "How about the gadgets? Where do you get the gadgets?"Avery frowned and looked up at her."Gadgets? What do you mean?""You have a burner phone, don't you? I see some mutants using that.""Do you want one?"She nodded, stepping closer. "Yes! How can I get one?""Is there someone outside you want to call?" Avery asked suspiciously."No one," she answered quickly with a broad

    The air-conditioning in the room was cold enough, but a drop of sweat still managed to escape Kieran's forehead. Since he woke up from a wet dream a few hours ago, his body still felt hot. He knew he had to release this heat. But he doesn't seem to have the energy for anything right now. He is too lazy to even get up.Kieran has been awake for a while now. But he hasn't gotten up yet. He rested his head in his hands as he stared blankly at the ceiling, recalling his happy memories with Lesley and intimate moments.He kept thinking about the sexy dream he had last night. He misses her in his arms, her lips on his, her perky breasts, and her hot wetness. He recalled how sweet those tasted, especially the heaven between her legs. But most of all, he yearns for her beautiful eyes that always look at him passionately, and her soft voice muttering words of love for him. Oh, how he longed for that.If he only knew that they would be like this, he would have shown more of how much he loves he
