107: It Felt Good
When we went out, our breakfast is ready. Sage took a bath and got dressed. Though, I wonder where did he get clothes?
My gaze lingered on her as I adjusted the belt of the dress. His t-shirt is white and his pants are gray. His damp hair is now a bit longer. It was brushed up, but there were a few strands left at the side of his forehead.
I stared at him more while he was busy on his phone, looking so snobbish and cold. Is that how he always expresses himself every time he works? He's too serious and arctic.
When he looked at me, the coldness in his eyes faded. Her eyes widened as I walked closer. He pulled my hand and I almost ended up sitting on his lap. My lips protruded in my way of hiding a smile as I pulled my hand and sat across him.
"Did you bring a dress?" I asked.
"Yup. I actually planned to sleep here before I left Manila."
"Oh." I nodded.

After the show, we returned to Manila and Sage took me to the condo. He said he would pick me up at six o'clock tomorrow. Although he assured me that his family will surely like me, that didn't ease my nervousness.I know I have achieved so much. But I still can’t get over the thought that many women are more deserving of him. He's holding two of the companies under their empire, if he chooses a woman in line with his track, he has a partner in management. To think it was easier for him then. It's an advantage he didn't take."Kaia, answer me, will you? I've asked a question here before but you don't answer me!" Luke sighed as he followed my movements.I was busy finding an appropriate dress while he was prying around. Of course now that we're on our own he hasn't missed it yet. I'm sure he was very eager to ask me earlier. Only now was given the chance so I wasn’t let go."Are you really? Something happened to you? How

I can't relate, though. Fortunately, Maddy was talking to me so I wasn't too bored."I heard William Lacson is going to run in the senate election. What do you think about that, Philip?" Tito Anton asked."I don't know him that much but I like his overpass project. Won't his children enter politics?""I really want that Patrick, e. Case doesn't seem to get involved in politics. Besides, I heard he's out of the country with his family–""I'll be the first," Markus said firmly together. He didn't wait for anyone to talk and immediately left. He hadn't even finished the food on his plate.My forehead creased. Sage followed the cousin's gaze. So is Maddy who now seems to have changed her mood as well. Morris tapped her shoulder silently."Has Markus had a problem lately, Revo?" Tita Odessa asked.Revo cleared his throat."He's just in the process of dealing something, Tita. Let'

"Congrats! Another successful concert!" Luke hugged me at the same time, while Rita was still in tears by our side."You're really good, Ma'am!"Many more greetings happened backstage. Rose and Brenda, who had a banner before, didn't give up. It wasn't the first concert I had, but it felt like the happiest. Not because there were more spectators, but because they were waiting for me below the stage.When I entered the dressing room, I did not hesitate to find him. He was leaning on the small table, staring at the gifts I received from the fans.I slowed down and stared at him intently. He's now staring darkly at the boxes of chocolates. His brows were furrowed, seemed so annoyed at the innocent chocolates."You like?" I taunted.He looked up at me. I walked a bit faster and he immediately snaked his arm around my waist when I got closer."You're friends with Caesar Ferrer?" he asked.

The elders laughed at her enthusiasm. Even the Sage laughed as well."Looks like you're the one getting married, ah?" Revo said."I'm just excited! I always dreamed of you all getting married. Now, it looks like I'm just waiting for Kuya Markus. You still don't have a plan, Kuya?"Morris, Sage and Revo stopped laughing. Markus's face was serious as he turned to his cousin. Maddy bit her lower lip subtly like she just realized she did something wrong."I don't think I will settle down anytime soon, Maddy. Do you mind waiting a little longer?" he said softly like he was taking good care of his cousin's feelings. But his eyes reflected darkness, one that is cold and too deep to be understood by anyone."Okay ..."A moment of silence prevailed over us. It was like the latter part of the topic created tension between the young Mongrecos. And I think their intense connection to each other is too strong to be sha

"Oh, Kaia is here." Jonas pointed to the girl wearing a pale pink dress. She was staring at the piano with her curious innocent eyes.His candle-like fingers traced the space in front of the piano. The amazement was etched on her pale face. Looking down, his long lashes were sharpened. Those have little curls at the end, making her eyes look so soft.Her hair is longer compared to previous visits. Although I heard she's only nine, the way she looks and move told me she's older than that. His demeanor was refined even as a child. And she has that paper white skin that I always notice every time it turns to pinkish white, when it's sunny or when from tiredness every time she helps her Mama."She's so pretty, isn't she? I'll make her my girlfriend once she's thirteen or fourteen," Carson said to me immediately."Why don't you prioritize your project? You're not here to fancy a little girl, Carson.""Ow.

She needed to heal from her pain and I can do nothing to help her. It hurts to think but that's how love should be. Generous. Even you yourself are completely exhausted.I gave a small paper to Sandro."That's the agency that Mrs. Robles contacted for Kaia's bodyguards. I want you to do something about that. Make sure your staff are her bodyguards. I want a first hand communication with the persons guarding her."He smirked."What? You want me to cheat? My agency is honest, Sage. We're not kidnapping clients.""I'll pay. So basically, I am your client here.""You really like manipulation, huh?""Will you?" I asked impatiently.The corner of his lip lifted and he patted my shoulder. "I'll do it."Slowly, I noticed how she's slowly coping. I'm glad he's somehow recovering. But everytime she sees me, I see anger and fear in her eyes. He always walks away. So over the yea
The Demoness Alpha 114: Lives of Villains
Tears welled up in my eyes as I looked at the name engraved on the tombstone. Even after all the pain I've gone through the past years, even after all the manipulation he has done in my life, I still can't bring myself to stop my tears.Maybe because despite the pain I suffered then, I did not suffer in life and eventually, I was also able to be happy somehow. Maybe it was really the best decision that time. To sacrifice my dreams and love, so I could protect what I have now.I'm sorry for the disappointments, father. I whispered in the air silently.Though even I could turn back time, I won't correct my mistakes. Because I learned to love my life now. That's what I have now. And I won't sacrifice the life I have now for what I had years ago."Neri ..." Patrick called.I quickly wiped away the tears and turned around. He looked at me with worried eyes. But I only looked at him for a moment because I immediately turned to the child holding his hand.
