Kabanata 2

A gentle knock from my door awakens me from my deep slumber. I groggily get up from my bed and rub my eyes like a lost child. I honestly want to sleep more. I was tired of socializing last night with different levels of individuals. Most especially, I was tired of smiling with those Barbie dolls who have huge silicone breasts with an empty brain. Gosh! And those paparazzi! Damn. Won't they just peacefully accept that the beast was already married to me?!

William formally introduced me as his wife last night. He held an exclusive and glamorous party at one of his Five-star hotels. He invited a lot of people from business partners to family friends and even some socialites! And to think that he freaking left me at that forsaking party! I shook my head in annoyance at remembering what happened last night. Then, I looked at my wall clock and saw it was still six thirty. I decided to open my door and saw a house help.

"Ma'am, master wanted you to get down on ten minutes. He said you'll gonna have your breakfast together." said the house help.

Ten minutes? Is he freaking serious? And wow! For the first time in forever, we're going to have breakfast together!

"I need one hour or at least forty minutes to get ready," I answered,

"B-but sir firmly said to give you ten minutes to prepare.." she said in a pleading tone. Fine! That beast is a pain in my nails.

"Fine," I answered. I still have a conscience. I don't want to be the reason for losing her job if ever. But seriously, ten minutes?! That freak!

"T-thank you, ma'am. I better go first."

I nodded in response to her. Then, I immediately went to the shower room after closing the door. I took off all the clothes I wore. My senses awakened when the cold water showered right through my face. I badly need this cold one. I took a bath as fast as I could. I immediately wrapped my body in the neat towel and decided to blow dry my hair even for a minute. Then, I open my closet and pick a sunny dress that is above the knee. I paired it with a white strapped sandal. I am planning to go to a beach resort later. I seriously need to unwind!

After seeing myself in the vanity mirror, I opened my door, went down the stairs, and headed straight to the dining area. There I saw William sitting formally on his designated chair but he's not alone! There's an aged man who looks exactly like him. What a carbon copy! What made me was when William approached me. He then encircled his arms on my waist and claimed my lips unceremoniously. Astonishment was written on my face for sure! That's my freaking first kiss! Because during the night of our wedding or it's much appropriate to say that during the night of signing our marriage contract, he just kissed me on my cheek much to my surprise.

"Good morning, sweetheart."

Oh my! Is this for real? Did he just greet me? I stayed silent and dazed for a moment. I wasn't able to utter a word but then, he guided me on my seat like a real gentleman. What was happening? Tell me I'm not dreaming.

"Based on her reaction, it feels like that's the first time you've done it to her my dear son or she's just too shy to do that while someone's watching." commented the aged man in front of me who now wearing a smirk. Wait.. son? Holy freak!

"Say what you want Father. This is Belle, my wife." William said, "And sweetheart, this is my righteous father and your father-in-law, Franco Cavanaugh."

Even though I wasn't ready for this situation, I was still able to stand and go to his side to properly greet him. Amusement was written on his face while his son was creasing his forehead.

"Hello, sir. A pleasure to finally meet you. I didn't know that you're that handsome despite your age!" I said giddily while extending my right hand to him. A tremendous laugh burst out from him. I couldn't stop myself from raising my eyebrow. "I can say that you're also very pleased to meet me too."

"Indeed, young lady. Come here and give this old man a fatherly hug," he said. I smiled and was about to obey him but Wil interrupted.

"The fuck old man! No fucking way!" Wil replied violently while grabbing my arm. And the result? I sat on his lap. What's wrong with this bastard?

"Oh, son. I didn't know you were that possessive. I'm just welcoming her as my daughter." said his father while laughing loudly.

"Shut up. Let's just eat and I still have many things to attend to." William cut him off. I was about to stand to sit back on my seat when Wil held my hand, "Stay still. I'm going to feed you my little wife. It feels like you haven't gained weight since the first time we met." he said while grinning.

"And what about my weight? I am not skinny." I gritted my teeth while saying that. But he just smirked and started spoon-feeding me. Ugh!

I thought after taking our meal, they would go separately but to my dismay, his father invited us to have coffee with him in the garden.

"So, Belle. How did you end up with my son?" Senior Cavanaugh asked with a plastered grin on his face. " I mean, you are young and delicately beautiful. I wonder what my son did to get your hand for marriage." nakakaloko nitong sabi sabay baling sa kanyang anak.

"At first, I was amazed at how deep and manly his voice is. And when I saw him, I couldn't believe how disgustingly handsome he was. But after a minute of talking to him, I realized how bastard he is." I said.

I heard William groaned in protest but I purposely didn't glanced at him. Malakas na tawa naman ang ginawa ng kanyang ama. "Can you believed po how he insulted me saying that I am not as hot as her harem of girls?" dumadagundong na tawa ang ginawa ulit ng kanyang ama.

"Sweetheart, stop making that old man laugh." he chuckled while trying to make me stop by gently holding my arms. I just raised my eyebrow at him.

"The nerve, right? Ang kapal ng mukha." dag-dag ko sabay ingos kay William. He then pulled me on my seat and put me on his thigh. He encircled his arms on my waist and put his chin on my shoulder blade.

"That's enough for today, sweetheart." bulong niya sabay halik sa aking leeg. I felt the heat on my face sa ginawa niya. Why is he acting so sweet all of a sudden? Kanina pa ang isang to! His father faked a cough and chuckled.

"You knew what, I think this is the time that I should go."

"Glad you knew father." sabi ni William na hindi man lang tumingin sa kanyang ama at ipinagpatuloy ang pagbibigay ng munting halik sa aking leeg. Gustuhin ko mang tumayo upang ihatid ang kanyang ama ay hindi ko magawa dahil sa nakapalibot na mga kamay niya na tila bakal. Umiling lang ang kanyang ama at ngumisi.

"Take care po." sabi ko nalang

"I will since I'm already expecting a grandchild," he said as he gave me a teasing wink. I blushed at what he said and eventually smiled.

"H-hindi mo man lang ba ihahatid ang iyong ama sa kahit man lang sa kanyang sasakyan?'' sa ngayon na kaming dalawa nalang ay hindi ko maitago ang aking kaba.

"What for? He has a well trained bodyguards in case of." sagot nito sa paputol-putol dahil abala pa rin sa paghalik sa aking leeg. Hanggang sa umakyat ang kanyang mga halik sa panga at tainga. Hindi ko mapigilan ang pagdaing ng magsimulang maglumikot ang kanyang kamay papunta sa aking hita at sa gitna nito. At tuluyan niyang sinakop ang aking mga labi at binigyan ako ng maiinit na halik. Ang isang kamay niya ay nasa aking dibdib habang ang isa naman ay nasa gitna ng aking hita na abala sa paghimas.

"Will.." I can't believe that seductive voice I produced!

"Yes, sweetheart. Shit, you're fucking wet baby.." sabi niya na patuloy pa rin ang ginagawa. Pero kahit mahirap ay agad akong tumayo ng makitang papalapit sa aming kinaroroonan si Gustav na ngayon ay abala sa tablet na hawak.

"What the fuck!" nakaawang ang labing saad ni William na para bang hindi makapaniwalang ganun ako kabilis nakawala sa kanya. Kahit naliliyo pa ay pilit kong inayos ang aking damit at bahagyang sinuklay ang aking buhok gamit ang aking mga daliri.

"G-Gustav is coming." tanging saad ko na para bang sapat ng dahilan yun.

"Just because that fucking Gustav is coming you'll get out of my grip while we're making out!" namumula niyang sabi sa sobrang init. Damn. Remind me some other time not to do that again. I didn't know it would result in this.

"But he'll saw us." buwelta ko. Not in his freaking dreams I will let someone see me almost naked! I'm not a freaking whore.

Kumunot ang kanyang noo at bumaling kay Gustav na ngayon ay ilang metro nalang ang distansiya sa amin.

"Do you fucking like that asshole?" he dangerously asked. Hindi makapaniwala ko siyang tiningnan. I mean, Gustav might be a good looking lad and I bet hindi nalalayo ang edad naming dalawa but heck! I don't have a thing on him! Dahil hindi ako agad nakasagot ay mukhang tumindi ang kanyang hinala. Bago pa siya makatayo at sugurin si Gustav ay ikinulong ko ang kanyang mukha sa aking mga palad at binigyan siya ng masuyong halik sa labi. Ang masuyo kong halik ay nauwi sa mainit ng pinalalim niya. He pulled me towards him and kiss me more. I gasped an air ng maghiwalay kami.

"I just don't like anyone Will." saad ko sa kanya.

"Of course, you shouldn't."

"Boss, Mr. Lim's been calling you for a while now." narinig kong sabi ni Gustav. Hindi ako lumingon sa kanyang gawi at ipinikit nalang ang aking mga mata habang yakap-yakap ako ni William.

"Go, get ready the car and tell Mr. Lim, I'll see him in twenty minutes."

"Yes, boss."

Naramdaman ko ang bahagyang pagpisil niya sa aking dalawang umbok at ang bahagyang pagkagat sa aking tainga.

"Humanda ka mamaya. When I get home, I should expect you on my bed wearing sexy lingerie, sweetheart."

Kalahating oras na ang nakakaraan mula ng umalis si William and I still cannot believed how we ended in making out instead of shouting and insulting each other. And how did I forget to ask him if I could go out? Damn it. I forgot to tell him that I wanted to go to a beach.
