Thank you for reading. The next chapter will be in the evening, Singapore Time. @Deedat. Sorry for calling you out. I don't have a way of messaging you. You misunderstood Chapter 56 of Kaleb's story. Carlos was there with Kate to donate blood to Liam. Liam, at that time, was already six years old. Please message me on F-B or I-G if you have questions about the books. Posting your questions on the most recent chapters of my ongoing novel can also work. I or anyone can help address any confusion.
“Why are you perspiring?” Kate asked, seeing beads of sweat form on Carlos’ forehead. ‘Why?’ Carlos thought. How could he focus on their date now when Kate openly suggested she was willing to give herself to him? “You make me think about dragging you to my bedroom. That’s why,” While driving the car, he admitted, but soon he took it back, saying, “But, I want this date. I’ve planned for it for so long.” "You did?" Kate asked. Still embarrassed at having given herself away, she looked at the window as she sought, "But how would you know we'd be together by now?" "Oliver and one other person I trust did the legwork. I estimated my return, and to answer your question, no. I did not expect to take you out as my girlfriend. I was." Carlos paused. He glanced at Kate and disclosed, "This was supposed to be me courting you, taking you out on a friendly date." From the passenger seat, Kate smiled, her heart galloping with excitement, her cheeks burning. It did not take long before they
“Another gift? I thought the dance was a gift,” Kate uttered while Oliver hand Carlos a palm size velvet box. Holding the box, Carlos studied Kate's delicate face. He asked, “Ready?" After seeing Kate nod, he said, "During your eighteenth birthday, you wanted uncle Ethan to get you a special gift. It was either the Circle of Heaven or Princess’ Xu’s Prosperity ring, but your father did not give you either.” Kate’s eyes widened. She sought, “No. Don’t tell me -” Carlos just smiled, his grey eyes sparkling in amusement at her reaction. He opened the box and revealed his gift. A small gift card on the upper part of the box read: [To My Kate. From Mister Jade.] Inside the jewelry box was the ‘Circle of Heaven’ jadeite bangle, one of Chinese history's most precious jade collections. It was a piece that Kate had wanted to buy since she was young. When Kate turned eighteen, Ethan thought it was too much for a piece of jewelry at her age, considering how it cost ten million dollars back
Kate’s heart fluttered as soon as Carlos spread her legs with his knee. His hand reached beneath her blouse. They were still in their clothes, making out in Carlos’ bed, but their desires were manifesting. She heard Carlos moan into her mouth, and she could not help but think how it was the sexiest sound ever. During their first make-out session, Carlos was cautious with her, but this time, he had his whole weight on top of her, his member hardening against her pubic area. When Carlos unknowingly ground his hips against her, Kate sucked in a deep breath. Along with the way she heaved, a moan left her lips, and her eyes shut. “Kate?” under his breath, Carlos asked. “Are you sure you are ready to do this? You don’t know how much I thought about doing this with you, but I will always respect your decision." Every man had that incomprehensible desire for his dream woman, and Carlos was no exception. Especially after seeing Kate’s elegant frame at his birthday party, he had thought ab
Kate bit her lip while she was lying on Carlos’ bed and watching him take off his pants. She knew this was it. Was she crazy about jumping into having sex with him already? Maybe, but damn, Kate considered it her reward for finding her lost love. Besides, this wasn’t just any man. It was Carlos Ronaldo, her best friend and the love of her life. Kate realized how Carlos’ gaze returned to her, and her heart fluttered. His jeans were already down on the floor, and he was about ready to pull down his brief. ‘Wow,’ she gulped, observing his long and well-defined legs. Even with his brief on, she could make out the firmness of his ass. Her hands itched to grab them. Just when Kate thought she had seen him at his best, Carlos’ manhood sprung free. She noticed how it was curved upward, stiff, and swinging back and forth. Oh, it scared her alright, but at the same time, his hardness impressed her. He was thick, and the way it curved upward made her wonder what it would feel like inside
Kate flinched, feeling the sunlight seep through the glass window of Carlos’ room. When she opened her eyes, she realized how the curtains were slightly open. She concluded how Carlos must have gotten up in the wee hours because he already had the necklace around his neck. Before they made love last night, he had taken it off. Kate looked up at his sleeping frame. She smiled mesmerizing at his handsome face. Slowly, she climbed higher on his bare chest to study his features. She had to admit it; maturity did Carlos well. The way part of his cheeks has sunken just a little, highlighting his chiseled jaws and adding to his charisma. She closed the gap between them and pecked on his cheeks. When Carlos merely hummed, clearly still fast asleep, her eyes landed on the compartment pendant. Kate squinted, studying the details of the same pendant. Her hand slowly held the pendant, carefully assessing how she would open it. When she finally assumed how it could be opened, she adjusted h
Kate was going through her bag, deciding on what to wear for their late brunch. Yes, they skipped breakfast altogether, since she and Carlos went for their third round, making love in bed. After which, they dozed off, exhausted from their morning exercise. When they awoke, it was already past noon. Carlos was already downstairs, checking the kitchen when Kate took her long bath. “This one or this one?” She asked herself, choosing between a crop top blouse paired with denim shorts and a casual dress. However, just as she was contemplating, her eyes wandered to Carlos’ closet. A smile formed on her face, saying, “I know what to pair with my shorts.” *** In the living room, Carlos had his hands folded against his chest, his forehead creased. He huffed, watching the news on TV. Hailey Mckenzie was being interviewed by F9 TV, a French TV network. She was crying as if deprived of something that belonged to her. “They won’t let me see Carlos, my boyfriend. Where is the justice in th
“Thank you for returning my daughter,” Ethan said while welcoming Carlos to the dining table. “Although we don’t mind if Kate stays with you until tomorrow. When are you leaving again, Carlos?” Samantha asked. “I’m leaving tomorrow, aunt,” Carlos revealed. “Kate will see me practice tomorrow morning, and I’ll leave for New York in the afternoon.” “Will you be back?” Samantha asked. “Yes, aunt. I will return after my New York trip, but I might not stay long. I still have to wait for instructions from the French Open organizers, but I am certain they will not delay the tournament for long. It can’t clash with the Wimbledon finals,” Carlos explained. “Yes, and we still need you to win the French Open Cup,” Ethan said before pointing Carlos and Kate to their seats. Observing the frown on Kate's face, Ethan asked, “Why are you looking grumpy?” “I’m not grumpy, dad. Pfft!” Kate denied it by faking a laugh. The truth was, Kate was disappointed that she did not get her reward from
Kate: [I miss you already] Reading Kate’s text made Carlos smile. Carlos was in his New York penthouse, ready to leave for his meeting with Officer Baker. The other day, when he left, he gave Kate a secured phone, and the same gadget already had his new number saved. Before taking the lift, he took the chance to send Kate a text back: [I miss you too. I’ll be back before you know it.] The sound of the elevator doors opening caught his attention. His eyes landed on Lemuel, his head of his security. “Sir, this way,” Lemuel said, guiding him to the back entrance of his penthouse building. “Have you added bodyguards to follow Kate around?” Carlos asked. Lemuel cleared his throat and replied, “Sir, um. Miss Wright has six soldiers following her around. She doesn’t even realize it. Plus the two we have commissioned from the security agency, she now has eight protectors.” “Good,” said Carlos. “Nothing is more important to me than Kate.” “Understood, Sir,” Lemuel acknowledged.
