Running his fingers over her waist, he lifted her floral blouse up to expose the skin. It took him a lot of willpower to resist licking her soft, creamy belly in the morning. It relieved him that he didn't want to stop himself anymore.
Scattering kisses over her curves, he slipped his tongue into her belly button. She gasped before tugging hard at his hair, still debating if she should push him away or pull him closer. He smirked and started suckling on her skin while running his hand under her pale pink skirt.
She threw her head back and pulled on his hair harder, letting out faint whimpering cries as he rubbed the thin material of her panties. Holding her hips firmly, he slipped his fingers inside, c

Ruhi stood there frozen, still processing what she just heard. After how affectionately Rafael hadlaid her down on the couch like she was the most precious thing in this world, she couldn't believe he could look at her as if she meant nothing to him. All within a few hours.Antonio ran right into Ruhi's petrified figure when he walked out of the room. He was sure she hadbeen standing there for a while."Ruhi... How much did you hear?""Enough I guess." Her eyes filled up with tears."Honey, it's going to be all right. Please give him some time.""I don't think so, dad. I think my presence around him is making things worse. It's become very stressful for me and affecting my health.""Health? What's the matter? Should I call the doctor?" He took his phone out without waiting for her response."That won't be necessary.I just need a break from Rafael.""I know what you mean. But I'm afraid I can't let you do

Ruhi was climbing down the stairs around 6.30 AMthe next morning to buy pregnancy kits when Rafael noticed her. Hehad returned from the gym and showered by then. It surprised him to see her wake up so early on a weekend. She usually struggled to get upwith a dozen alarms on weekdays. He constantly heard her snooze the alarm while he walked to his room from the gym, study, or when goingdown to eat breakfast. She was still in her nightclothes. But he heard her talking to Oreo, saying she will be back soonwhen the dogfollowed her to the front door. "Ruhi, hold on." He went down the stairs in a flash and saw her look at him like he was the last thing she wanted to see. She changed her opinion when her eyes fell on his shirtless body, with water still dripping down from his damp hair. 'Is he trying to seduce me out in the open?' She wondered and looked toward the kitchen to see if Ms. Myers could see them. She wa

Ruhi spent most of the day searching for apartments online until she received an email from hisPA.'Poor thing, the slave driver boss is making Linda work on a weekend besides keeping her in the office till 6.30 PM,' she thought and read the email excitedly as the subject said 'Party at the Crescent Hotel.'Ruhi wondered why Rafael was suddenly throwing a party after chewing everyone's heads off ever since he got out of the hospital.She ran excitedly to the garden to ask Antonio once she read the party details."Unlimited Korean barbeque, Japanese buffet, free-flowingalcohol, Latin dancing,a photo booth and so on... whoa! What's the occasion, dad? It's in the middle of the week.""It's mywife's birthday on that day. We host the party in a hotel where she was bestowed the ballerina title thirty years ago—Prima ballerina assoluta." He said proudly. "She was pregnant with Rafael then but didn't know yet.""Oh wow! A

"Oh, look! She's alive." Sarah swung around in her chair, calling for Brittany's attention when Ruhi walked to her cubicle. "Oh, my God! What happened to you? You missed so much on Friday!" "I... I wasn't feeling well. Why? What happened on Friday?" "I think the boss is open for all of us to hit on. He banged some chick in the middle of the day. Looks like his relationship with his wife is officially done done!" Brittany explained. "Or he doesn't care at all what anyone thinks about him anymore. He never encouraged his secretary's flirtingand was always careful to protect his relationship when he was with Alisha." Sarah added. "Alisha is hotter than his secretary. And we are all hotter than his wife. But Khloe said he looked devoted to his wife when she was here." "Unfaithful men will bang anything, even if they have a hot girlfriend. He was committed to them, his ex and thenhis soon-to-be wife. Now he is not anymore becaus

"Choices, choices, decisions, and more decisions!" Ruhi huffed as she looked at the stores in the shopping district and thought about the two dozen apartments she looked at the day before and still wondering if she made the right choice."Only the most elitein town come here," Rosie said, pointing to the security standing at the entrance of each store, asking clients if they have an appointment.Most stores shooed away window shoppers just by looking at them.

"Positive?!" Ruhi stared at the double lines in disbelief."Positive again.How is this happening, Oreo?""Fuck!!" She tossed the sticks when the third one showed positive too.It was already 10 AM, and she had a meeting with Rafael at 11 AM. The initial idea was to tell him about her moving out plan sooner or later during the day, depending on how his mood was. But now she had to see his reaction about her pregnancy too.She struggled to focus on her daily business and breakfast, wondering if he would want the baby aborted. She didn't want to be pregnant, but the thought that he might want the baby gone angered her.It started drizzling lightly when she went down to the kitchen to gether morning coffee. She saw her grandma on the other end of the front yard and walked over, debating if she should ask her what would be the best thing to do, now that she was pregnant."Oh, didn't know you were still at home. Antonio wanted to

“What do you mean you won’t be going? It’s not that jackass’s party. It’s in the loving memory of my wife.” Antonio tried to convince Ruhi about the party on Thursday night while eating dinner with grandma.“I don’t want to see him again.”“Come on, Ruhi. You don’t have to see him or talk to him. Besides, Anna will be flying in tonight. She will keep you company tomorrow.”“Who’s Anna?”“My god-daughter. She’s as precious to me as you and Rafael are. She takes care of my Italian sect of business. I will be going to the airport to receive her after we finish eating. You can come with me if you want.”Ruhi felt grandma appearto be a little reservedwhen Antonio talkedabout Anna.“I’d love to. This Panzanella is out of the world, grandma!”“So is this pasta,” Antonio added.&ldq

A feeling of helplessness washed over Ruhi as she walked out of the event room. She headed to the bathroom as large tears pooled in her eyes whenshe thought about Rafael with some other woman."Mira!" She tried to avoid whoever it was, but her coworker called her again and followed her."There you are. We are heading to the memorial hallway, wanna join?" Sarah asked her while the others were going downstairs to the hallway. It was a place filled with large portraits of Francesca in her ballerina costume. Antonio had bought the hotel after her death and had the hallway dedicated to her.Ruhi decided it was better to go with her coworkers than crying in the bathroom and coming out with bloodshot eyes and ruined makeup."What's the matter? You okay?""Oh yeah, totally. That crab dip was super spicy, made me tear up." She carefully wiped the tiny droplets at the corner of her eyes with her finger and followed Sarah."But

SEVEN YEARS LATER It was a quiet Sunday afternoon with some cooling summer showers pouringdown outside the window whileRafael spent a good amount of time in his study. He was lagging behind quite a bit because he spent all day at the water park yesterday and left work early even on Friday afternoon to attend his daughter's ballet performance. He got up from his seat and stretched before stepping out to see what Ruhi and his little Snookums were up to. Even though he wanted to finish all the piled up stuff, he had gone two hours without seeing them and it felt like too much on a Sunday. He walked down to the kitchen to see what all the excitement was about. Ruhi was watching something very seriously on her daughter'spink laptop while the little girl was busy whisking butter and molten chocolate. She got chocolate mousse on both her chubby cheeks while Ruhi got a good amount on her nose. "Papa! You were not supposed to come out until w

Rafael had always imagined death to start with some blinding light where all the best moments of his life wouldflash by him and then follow with an abyss of darkness. At least that's what he heard people say it would be like.The gunshots were still ringing in his ears long after the darkness, but the blinding light never came. The pain and the hopelessness sure felt like death.Among the many regrets he had, he regretted not being able to say a proper goodbye. Ruhi had never believed how unconditionally he loved her. He knew he did a poor job showing his feelings toher, except that he could prove that he would die for her, willing to do so over and over.He wanted to hear Ruhi's voice one last time before falling unconscious. His body was going numb, but a shooting painunfurled in the deepest pit of his stomach when he thought about the image of Ruhi lying on the floor.Was she conscious? He couldn't remember. Everything happened too quic

"Oh, I seriously loved what you fed me. I don't know what this is.""Well, let me fix something light so that you don't go hungry. The doctor will be on his way if you throw up again." His voice trailed off as he walked back into the kitchen.Pushing the stray locks of her hair out of her sweaty forehead, she looked at the time on her phone and groaned, her head still slightly spinning. She slept for almost ten hours last night after getting rid of her dinner and felt exhausted at barely ninein the morning.Rafael stepped into the bedroom with a bowl full of chicken soup forty minutes later, and she was in for another surprise. She wished she knew how to cook a soup withthat perfect consistency and flavor he achieved seemingly effortlessly. Watching the heavy raindrops hit the window panes persistently, she stared out at the dark sky while sipping on the warm liquid."Huh, so no sightseeing today?" She asked Rafael, who was looking at her with

No matter how much Rafael hated to move to a different room, Ruhi was super adamant, and hehad no other option but to leave the room. He hoped the next morning to be better and planned a day full of fun things to do. He missed the good old times where all she wanted was to eat a good meal with him at a restaurant and make him watch some kids' movies.She answered his call after deliberately missing it the first two times. He assumed she was sleeping. Sleep was the last thing on her mind. Without him by her side, she tossed and turned until the stormy predawn sky gave way to some daylight outside the huge glass windows."Wake up, sleepyhead. We have reservations for breakfast at a lakeside cafe here.""What makes you think I'm still in my bed. I ate breakfast already."Rafael's face fell when he heard that. It was barely 9 AM and Ruhi was still in bed on weekends, so he didn't expect her to be out already when on vacation."Where are you

"Do I really want to talk to her? I don't think so." Ruhi crumpled the paper with Adira's number on it."Well, we can't trust anything she says, but I think we should hear her out. Also, I need to track her location. So just talk to her for a few minutes and---""I don't want to help you kill her, Rafael."Rafael entered the number into Ruhi's phone and made the call before turning the speaker on."Ruhi... I-I'm sorry. Please, please, help me. There are some half a dozen men with guns chasing me. I feel scared. Ruhi? Are you there?""How could you lie to Gus about something like that? Don't you know he still hasn't moved on?" Ruhi asked reluctantly,confused about how she felt when talking to her sister. She never wanted to talk to her again after finding outshe wanted Gus to kill her."It was... Um, it was Alisha's idea. I just told her Raina had a sister. She came up with this idea to make a deal with him

It took a lot of courage for Ruhi to utter those four words, knowing full well Rafael wasn't going to let her go that easily. If he was a person to reason with and walk away with mutual understanding, she would have never tried so hard to run away from him. As she expected, his eyes flared, smoldering with what seemed to be fury, and his body grew rigidabove her, taut with tension."What?"He rolled onto his side and forced her to meet his gaze."You heardme. I can't live like this anymore. I want out, and I mean it."He flinched slightly at the steely resolution in her eyes. His gaze was feverishly raking her up and down, with disbelief clearly written all over his face. She was equally baffled that he hadn't seen this coming. She wondered if he was being deliberately dense."Ruhi, I know you didn't deserve the treatment you got from me." He stroked her cheek back and forth with hislong thumb. "It's not fair that I make a mistake

"A honeymoon..."Ruhi quietly pushed Rafael's hand away and put her seatbelt on. He expected her to put up a fight orrun out of the car and was shocked to see her stare out of the window in resignation.Zack approached the car but was blocked by Harry. He handed Ruhi's cellphone, laptop, and money back to Harry. Rafael told him to hold on to them as he believed Ruhi wouldn't run without those things. He also wanted to make sure she didn't call her sister and ask her to run instead."Drive!" She told him in an impatient voice when he stalled inside the car, checking his work emails quickly."Ruhi, I don't mean to force you into---""What part of my intentions isnot clear to you? Doyou really think I'd run away from you to show you I want to go on a honeymoon? What kind of logic is that?"Rafael opened his mouth to defend himself but closed it when he saw the look on her face. She was royally pissed, unlike all those ot

"Are you serious?" Ruhi couldn't believe her ears.He ignored her and focused on his phone when Zack texted and then called him."No, no weapons and none of his men. He can go back if he doesn't agree."She waited for him to finish talking on the phone while peeking into the coffee mug he left on the table."Was that dark rum or black coffee? Didyou really mean it when you said I can go?""Pack your stuff before I change my mind."She darted upthe stairs but stopped when she heard Zack enter the house with a pissed off face and announce something to Gus. When did he ever look happy? She wondered and turned back to the room but stopped dead in her tracks when she thought she heard Rafael's name.Climbing back down the spiral staircase, she walked towards the door to listen to their conversation."Just one then. Check thoroughly.""Check who?" She asked Gus, who ignored her again and went to grab some stu

"Gus, she's gone." Ruhi held her breath when she heard Zack's infuriated voice. She was surprised to hear him address his boss by his name.Gus closed the bathroom door and walked over to the bed. Unlike Zack who wanted to kill Ruhi if he saw her again, Gus was relatively calm as he picked his cellphone up from the bed. Checking his messages on the locked screen and dismissing them, he opened the 'Tracker'."I'll get Nash to check the surveillance camera. She may still be on the premises if---""She's right here." Gus cut him off whileRuhi's heartbeat skyrocketed. "You can get back to work. I'll take care of this."Leaning down a bit, he grabbed Ruhi's wrist firmly and pulled her out from under the bed. She didn't dare to meet hiseyesand stared at the door Zack exited from.Gus moved a strand of her hair from her cheek while she froze.'Crap, crap, crap!
