Ang boses na narinig ni Laverna ay boses talaga ng tito niya. Hindi siya pwedeng magkamali at kahit pa gustuhin niyang huwag paniwalaan ang kaniyang naririnig, mas lalo niyang napatunayan na ang lalaking kausap ni Nicholas ay ang kadugo niya mismo nang makita niya ang suot nitong relo. Halos mahibang siya sa kaniyang nalaman kaya pagkatapos na pagkatapos niyang ihanda ang mga dala niyang pagkain, agad siyang tumakbo papunta sa comfort room. Nang maisara niya ang pinto at napansing wala siyang ibang kasama sa loob, kinuyom niya ang kaniyang kamay at agad sinuntok ang pader. Tanging iyon lang na paraan ang kaniyang naisip para mapakalma ang sarili.

Nang maramdaman niya ang sakit sa kaniyang kamay, sumandal siya sa may dingding at huminga nang malalim. Sa lahat pa kasi ng mga taong makikita niya sa okasyon na iyon, hindi kailanman sumagi sa isipan niya na kasali mismo ang kaniyang tito. Hindi niya man alam kung ano talaga ang binabalak niyang gawin sa grupong Valdemar ngunit isa lang an

    Kinabukasan, maagang umalis si Laverna sa kaniyang apartment at nagtungo sa mansyon ng kaniyang ama. Katulad ng dati niyang gawi, inalis niya muna ang kaniyang disguise bago humarap kay Mr. Valdemar. “I’m here to report, sir,” saad ng dalaga habang nakatingin sa kaniyang amang nakatanaw sa labas ng bintana na tila ba malalim ang kaniyang iniisip. “You better not disappoint me this time,” tugon naman ni Mr. Valdemar. Hindi alam ni Laverna kung ang dala niya bang balita ay kasali rin sa nakadidismayang mga bagay sa paningin ng kaniyang ama ngunit para malaman ito, kailangan niyang ipagsabi ang nangyari noong nakaraang gabi. Bumuntong hininga siya at kinuyom ang kaniyang kamay. “I got to identify two people from our group who attended the party. First is the former head of the Ester Orphanage, Erik Claver. Siguro pagkatapos ko siyang tanggalin sa kaniyang posisyon ay agad siyang nakipagsanib-pwersa sa grupo ni Nicholas…” Hindi maituloy ni Laverna ang kaniyang sasabihin dahil baka hin

    Nicholas immediately recovered and flashed a smile at Laverna.“I have to go, baby. See you soon.” Ending the call, he served a hot chocolate drink on the counter and motioned Laverna to have it.The young lady was still appalled at what she just heard. Somehow, she felt disappointed because she always thought that he never had a lover. That was one of the things she made clear before she had let him become her bodyguard.“So… you lied about not having a girlfriend, huh. I might just fire-”Bago pa man tapusin ni Laverna ang sasabihin nito, isang ngisi ang binigay sa kaniya ni Nicholas na siyang dahilan para taasan niya ito ng kilay.

    Nang magising si Laverna kinabukasan, katahimikan at hindi pamilyar na kuwarto ang kaniyang naabutan. Naupo muna siya saglit at hinayaang magising nang husto ang sarili at maalala kung ano ang nangyari noong nakaraang araw. Makalipas ang ilang minuto, umalis siya sa kama at akmang aalis na ng kuwarto ngunit tumunog ang cellphone niya. Agad naman niya itong sinagot nang makita na si Julia ang tumatawag.“Miss, may schedule po kayo ngayong 1 PM ng rehearsal for the fashion show to be held five days from now. Venue is Eslinwood Paradise,” saad ni Julia na siyang dahilan para mapabuntong hininga si Laverna.“Okay… I will be there on time.”“After the rehearsal, Mr. Valdemar wants you to attend the family dinner by 7 PM.”“Okay.” Iyan lang ang tanging tugon ng dalaga bago binaba ang tawag. Pagkalabas niya ng kuwarto, nilibot niya ang bahay at kahit ni anino ni Nicholas ay wala siyang nakita kaya pumunta na lang siya sa kusina para uminom ng tubig. Maya-maya pa ay napansin niya ang isang r

    Nanatiling nakatayo si Laverna sa harap ng pinto at nagda-dalawang-isip kung kakatok ba siya o aalis na lang. Napansin na rin niya kasi na tila sinasanay niya ang kaniyang sarili na naka-depende sa presensya ni Nicholas. Nangako siya na hindi na siya uulit dahil sa takot na baka mawala lang ito bigla katulad ng pagkawala ni Julius. Bumuntong hininga ang dalaga bago nakapagdesisyon na umalis na lang. Tumalikod na ito ngunit nakakailang hakbang pa lamang siya paalis ay narinig niya ang boses ni Nicholas.“Hindi naman kita pinapaalis kaya bakit parang ayaw mong pumasok?” tanong ng binata.Kahit ni isang salita ay walang binitawan si Laverna. Hinarap niya lang siya at napatakbo sa kaniyang direksyon. Tanda pa niya ang sinabi nito na lagi siyang andiyan sa tabi niya kapag kailangan niya ng masasandalan kaya naman hindi ito nag-alinlangang yakapin ang binata.Gulat man si Nicholas sa biglaang pagyakap sa kaniya, hindi na siya nagtanong at niyakap na lang siya pabalik.

    Laverna woke up the next morning with Nicholas right beside her, still sleeping soundly so she could not help but stare at him for a while. She truly appreciated his kindness and for some reason, she tried reconsidering his words about leaving the Valdemar group and just live like a normal person. Ngunit nangingibabaw pa rin sa kaniya ang pagkuha ng pabor ng kaniyang ama. At ano na lang ang magiging buhay niya kapag iiwan niya ang pagiging isang miyembro ng mafia? She never got to finish school so applying for a decent job was close to impossible. And not to mention, she never imagined living a life not receiving any orders from her father. For her, the orders she had always been receiving from the head of the Valdemar mafia group was the only reason she continued living. Maya-maya pa ay unti-unting nagising si Nicholas at agad napansin na paalis na sa kama si Laverna. Agad niyang hinawakan ang kamay nito at hinila papalapit sa kaniya. Nang napahiga niya ang dalaga, agad niya itong

    Early in the morning, Laverna woke up, still feeling uneasy around her new apartment. It may be more luxurious than her previous home, however, it did not give her that homey and comfortable feeling. Still, she convinced herself that she will get used to it later on.Dahil magkikita sila ni Liraz sa isang malapit na cafe, pumunta na ito sa banyo para makapaghanda. Habang inaayos niya ang kaniyang buhok, tumunog ang doorbell na siyang dahilan para magtaka ito dahil wala pa namang nakakaalam na naroroon siya maliban na lang sa mga tauhan nilang tumulong sa kaniya sa paglipat. Lumabas ito sa kaniyang kuwarto at tiningnan muna ang monitor para makita kung sinuman ang nasa labas ng apartment niya.She let out a relieved sigh upon seeing that it was just Clarrisse, who was waving right at the camera with a huge smile on her face.

    Nicholas gritted his teeth after hearing those words. He had no idea how and when Laverna got to speak with Liraz during the masquerade party but that did not really matter at the moment. He excused himself, telling Laverna that he needed to use the restroom, and rushed to a corner away from her. He immediately dialed her girlfriend’s number.Ring after ring, he felt more and more agitated, hoping that Laverna’s men couldn’t have found her yet. Makalipas ang pang-limang ring, sinagot ni Liraz ang tawag ng nobyo.“Nasaan ka?” agad na tanong ni Nicholas.“Bakit? Hindi ba’t ngayon na alis ninyo ni Laverna so bakit ka tumatawag?” Halata pa rin ang sarkastikong tono ng boses nito kaya naman napahawak ang binata sa taas ng ilong nito.“Babe, this is no time for this. Wherever you are, I want you to hide in a place where no one can find you. Wear something that covers your face and turn on the location of your phone. I will have Victor fetch you. No matter what happens, do not go with anyone

    Gunner stared at Laverna for a while and the next thing he did made the woman glare at him.Chuckling at her words, he said, “And do you actually think that will make a difference?”Laverna, on the other hand, could only knit her eyebrows because she does not know what he was actually thinking. It made her a bit anxious that when Gunner took a step forward towards him as his silver eyes seemed to bore into her very being, made her step backwards until she was backed in a corner.A smirk slowly formed on his lips. “But since you are willing to show me your bare self, then entertain me even more, kitten.”When he was about to brush his hand over her cheeks, Laverna shot him a glare and slapped his hand away. Ayaw na ayaw pa naman niyang tinatawag siya sa isang pet name. Umalis siya sa kaniyang kinatatayuan at hinarap ang salamin bago unti-unting tinanggal ang kaniyang make-up.Gunner was watching on the side with a poker face, but deep inside, he was very much amused and curious.

    “I am Liraz Constantine, the wife of no other than the head of the Magnus mafia group. I am more than sure that by the time someone watches this, I am already dead.”Panandaliang natulala si Nicholas ngunit nang marinig niya ang tawa ni Laverna, agad siyang bumalik sa katinuan.“She truly knows her fate. Good for her,” komento ng dalaga.“What’s the meaning of this?” nagtitimping tanong ng mafia boss habang nakatingin nang masama sa kaniya.“Oh, come on. Huwag kang magalit agad. Hindi mo pa nga natatapos panoorin ‘yan eh.”She even cupped his cheek, but Nicholas immediately slapped it away as his piercing glare met her gentle yet mocking gaze.“So this is your goal after all this time?” “You guessed it right. What are you going to do about it?” Ngumisi si Laverna. “Papatayin mo rin ba ako katulad ng pagpatay mo sa babaeng kasa-kasama mo sa loob ng ilang taon?”Hindi sumagot si Nicholas ngunit agad niyang hinugot ang kaniyang baril saka tinutukan sa mukha si Laverna. She, however, nev

    Without sparing a glance at the lifeless body of his wife, Nicholas knelt on one knee in front of Laverna as he handed back the gun to her. Isang ngiti ang gumuhit sa labi ng dalaga bago niya kinuha ang baril mula sa kaniya. After securing it back on her leg, she outstretched her hand towards him as if expecting him to do something.Hindi naman nag-atubiling halikan ni Nicholas ang likod ng kamay ni Laverna bilang mensahe na handa siyang gawin ang kahit ano basta muli silang magsama. After he did the gesture, Laverna grabbed his chin and made him look up to her.She must admit that she loved the desperation in his eyes and one thing only came into mind—use it to her advantage. Hindi siya sigurado kung totoo ba ang nakikita niya ngunit wala na siyang pakialam. Mamatay man siyang nakapaghiganti o hindi, sisiguraduhin pa rin niyang hinding-hindi makukuha ni Nicholas ang inaasam-asam niyang kapangyarihan. “What took you so long to want me this much?” tanong niya na tila ba matagal na niy

    “What’s the matter?” an Agate member questioned upon seeing the intense expression of their boss.“Focus on the auction. Make sure that you get the item no matter what. I will be back in a while,” sagot ni Nicholas bago umalis sa silid na iyon.Pagkalabas niya sa headquarters ng Agate, muli siyang nakatanggap ng mensahe na mas lalong nagpa-inis sa kaniya. Agad siyang pumasok sa kotse niya at pinaharurot iyon paalis patungo sa direksyon kung nasaan ang dating mansyon ng mga Quevedo.On his way there, he dialed the number of his right-hand man. In just a matter of seconds, his call was answered.“Surround the Quevedo mansion, but keep it low. Laverna is being held captive in that place,” he instructed. “I will be there in a few minutes.”“I get it that you want her back, but don’t you think it is a bit suspicious that she is there right now with the auction still going? What if she is there to trap you?” Victor questioned.“Just gather the others and do what you are told!” galit na sago

    Habang nag-uusap si Liraz at ng boss niya, binisita naman ni Laverna si Lily sa kwarto nito. Hindi na niya hawak-hawak ang espadang ginamit niya sa pagbugbog kay Liraz. Nagkatinginan ang dalawa. Katulad noong mga nakalipas na araw, tahimik lang si Lily ngunit nang magsara ang pinto ay agad siyang napabangon.“How’s Liraz faring?” tanong nito.Ito ang kauna-unahang pagkakataon na umimik siya mula noong nakulong siya sa white room kaya naman nabigla si Laverna. Hindi niya inaasahang tila walang epekto kay Lily ang tinatawag nilang “white room torture.” Gayunpaman, hindi masyadong halata ang pagbabago sa ekspresyon niya. Naupo siya sa nag-iisang puting lamesa habang kaharap si Lily.“You must have enjoyed beating her up after going through hell because of her and her husband,” dagdag niya habang nakangisi. “Anyway, there is one thing I am curious about.”Tumayo si Lily saka dahan-dahang nilapitan si Laverna.“Now that my ex-husband is gone and the man closest to him is my son, are you

    Attached with the message sent to all bidders was the image of Laverna with her middle finger raised while holding the printout of her bounty. Right to next to her was Joseph, a declaration that the founder of Black Stallion truly had Laverna under his wing as of the moment.Isang malakas na tawa ang pinakawalan ni Julian habang nakatingin sa mensaheng natanggap niya. Hindi naman kasi niya inakalang pati si Laverna ay ibebenta ng Black Stallion. All this time, he had been thinking that they were going to use her as one of those people who would take guard at the final item for the auction. Mas natatawa pa siya sa kadahilanang alam niyang maiinis at ikagagalit ito ni Nicholas.“Things involving this Laverna woman really do spice things up,” komento ng consigliere habang kaharap ang bagong pinuno ng Luciano na hinahasa niya upang maging kasing-galing o mas gumaling pa kaysa kay Caesar.“Should we go to the auction hotel ourselves?” tanong ng bagong pinuno na siyang nakapagpabago agad sa

    Napahawak nang mahigpit si Laverna sa baso ng kaniyang kape habang hinihintay ang mga susunod na sasabihin ni Liraz. Ngunit sa sumunod na limang minuto, purong katahimikan lang ang nanggaling kay Liraz.Nakatalikod ito sa CCTV habang nakasandal sa puting dingding. Napabuntong hininga na lamang si Laverna, senyales ng kawalan ng kaniyang pag-asa na malaman ang katotohanan sa likod ng pagkamatay ni Anna. Gayunpaman, hindi niya inaalis ang tingin kay Liraz.Bigla naman itong lumingon sa CCTV habang nakangiti. Her smile was wide as if the edges of her lips could reach her ears. Her eyes widened with thrill and excitement, making it seem like she was about to drop the most pleasant news.“I killed her!” sigaw niya bago humagalpak sa tawa. “Alam mo kung bakit?”Liraz glued her sight on the CCTV as if she knew that Laverna was watching her. The grin on her lips never left as another word left her mouth.“Because you and Nicholas treasure her so much. She is the only hope that my husband is h

    Laverna opted not to visit either Liraz or Lily that night. She wanted them to be in their white rooms for two or three days to make sure that they would slowly lose their minds. Kinaumagahan, mag-isang kumakain sa dining area si Laverna. Tanging ang ingay lang ng mga kubyertos ang naririnig sa silid na iyon.Maya-maya pa ay sumabay sa kaniya si Mino na ngayo’y kitang-kita ang eye bags niya. Para bang tatlong araw din siyang hindi natulog.“Kamusta naman si Clarrisse?” tanong ng lalaki bago kinain ang unang slice ng kaniyang steak.Nagkibit-balikat si Laverna.“She volunteered to become bait.”“Magandang ideya din ‘yon lalo na at alam ni Nicholas na pinapangalagaan mo ang pinsan mo...”Napatigil siya nang makitang umiling ang dalaga na siyang dahilan para tumaas ang kilay niya.“Anong...” Ginaya ni Mino ang pag-iling ni Laverna. “I sent her to a private island. Sa tingin mo talaga na hahayaan ko na naman siyang mawala pagkatapos kong malaman ang lahat?”Natahimik ang binata pagkatapo

    “What?!” sabay na sigaw nina Liraz at Lily nang marinig nila mismo kay Clarrisse na dadalo si Laverna sa kanilang secret meeting.“You’re not joking, are you?” saad pa ni Lily na halatang hindi masyadong naniniwala sa kaniyang narinig. “I mean... I have been trying to convince her before, but she never listened.”“Well... She probably changed her mind after what happened a year ago,” sumbat naman ni Clarrisse. “Plus, she is just recovering now so I’d like to apologize in advance if she does something offensive or anything.”Tahimik lamang si Liraz. Sa hindi niya malamang dahilan, bumilis ang pagtibok ng kaniyang puso. Dahil ba iyon sa excitement dahil magiging kakampi na rin nila si Laverna o dahil ba sa takot na buhay ito at may malaking galit pati sa kaniya dahil sa ginawa ni Nicholas? She could not tell, but she wished it was the former.“How did you convince her to join us?” tanong ni Liraz.“She actually listened to our conversation the last time we met. I told her that she shou

    Laverna froze upon hearing those words. Her glass of champagne, which she was about to drink, broke after she gripped it too tight. Its content that used to be yellowish in color was now stained with scarlet as it spilled on her lap. “Oh, right. That poor little girl... I wonder who actually killed her on the night of Laverna’s wedding,” Lily commented after letting out a heavy sigh. She then turned to Clarrisse and caressed her arm.“And you are such a brave girl, Clarrisse, for trying to save her.” She paused. “Did you already mention this matter to Laverna?”Umiling si Clarrisse kahit alam niyang sa mga oras na iyon, alam na alam na ni Laverna ang katotohanan. Hindi niya maipinta kung ano ang reaksyon ng kaniyang pinsan ngunit sigurado siyang nasasaktan ito. Kumirot ang kaniyang dibdib dahil sa ganitong paraan niya pa malalaman ang totoo. Gayunpaman, hindi siya nagpatinag at pinagpatuloy ang kaniyang pakikipag-usap sa dalawa.Sa loob ng isang oras ng kanilang pag-uusap, nakatulala
