Chapter 5

Reika's Point of view:

"Why are your friends staring at me kanina? Did I do something wrong?"

He looked at me and smiled, he shook his head and held my hand. I know na kailangan kong lumayo sa kaniya but, what if I'll get to know him more? He's not that dangerous at all, he's soft. And I feel like he's going to protect me at all costs. We're walking towards the door of our mansion, I'll introduce him to my family of course.

I opened the door and to my surprise, Mom and Dad were walking around the house, worries were visible on their faces. I suddenly felt guilty, seeing them worried because of me makes me feel weak.

"Mom, Dad."

Both of them looked in our direction and I smiled when they immediately ran towards me and hugged me. I really can't live without them.

"Baby naman! Bakit ngayon ka lang umuwi? We are so worried about you!" Mom shouted and looked at me from head to toe, checking if there were any bruises and wounds.

I smiled. "I'm okay now, Mom––"

"Who are you young man?" Dad suddenly asked the man beside me.

Oh I forgot, hindi ko pa nga pala alam ang pangalan niya. I looked at him and saw him staring at me, he bit his lower lip and smiled before looking at my parents and bowed his head to show some respect.

"I'm Aedion Zev Lycaon, it is nice to meet you Ma'am, Sir," nakangiting pagpapakilala niya sa parents ko.

Because of what he did, my heart beat fast. His name fit him, handsome like him. He glanced at me so I looked away and blushed. Oh damn Reika, stop it right now.

"And why are you with our daughter?" Mom asked, seriously and that made me nervous.

I was about to say something but Aedion suddenly held my hand. I looked at our hands and I looked up at him. He's seriously looking at my parents.

"I, Aedion Zev Lycaon, want to court your daughter Reika Bellatrix Zurie Damon," he seriously said and that made me blushed even more. "And I would like to have your permission, Mr and Mrs Damon."

Both of my parents looked at each other and smiled at Aedion.

"We will gladly let you court our beautiful daughter, just don't hurt her and we'll be fine," Mom said while smiling. She looked at me and smiled.

I smiled back at Mom and squished Aedion's hands. "A-Ahm Mom, Dad. W-We are just going to talk," paalam ko and they both nodded so I immediately pulled Aedion and ran towards my room.

I heard him sexily chuckled when I locked the door and glared at him. He looked at me and smiled, naughtily.

"Do you want to have a baby already? Hmm?" he asked and walked towards me that made me gulped.

"N-No, I'm not ready yet," nauutal kong sabi at ngumiti naman siya.

"I know baby, I respect you and I'll wait for you," he whispered, which made me smile.

I walked towards my bed and sat on it. He followed me and sat beside me, before pulling me close to him and caressed my hair.

"Ligaw agad? Hindi pa natin kilala ang isa't-isa," I said and chuckled.

I heard him chuckle. "We'll get to know more love," he whispered and gently continued caressing my hair.

Napapikit ako dahil sa antok pero nilabanan ko iyon. I don't want to sleep, I want to go outside with him, date him.

"I want to go everywhere," I whispered and I heard him humming.

"Where do you want to go baby?" He asked and I smiled.

"Sa may snow na lugar––w-wow!" I was cut off when suddenly, napunta kami bigla sa Canada.

"H-How?" I asked and looked at him, he smiled and hugged me.

"Baby, I can do everything you want me to do," he said and that made me more impressed.

Bigla akong nilamig kaya hinigpitan niya ang yakap sa akin at nagtaka ako nang medyo nakaramdam na ako ng init.

"Where do you want to go?" He asked and I smiled.

"I want to go to the side of the London bridge! Dancing under the stars," I said while imagining that we're dancing under the stars, nasa gilid ng London bridge.

"Your wish is my command, baby."

Napakurap ako nang biglang magbagong muli ang lugar. We're already at the side of the London bridge! Tumingin ako sa langit at nakitang maraming bituin at gabi na! I looked at him and smiled when he offered his hands.

"Can we take a dance, my love?" he asked and I gladly accepted his hands.

"Gladly," I said at nilagay naman niya ang kamay ko sa kaniyang batok, he pulled me closer to him, his hands on my waist.

Lumaki ang ngiti ko nang inikot niya ako and he also did the same, he turned around and we both laughed at our craziness. We danced under the stars, like there's no problem around us. The moon we're not shining at us but, the star does.

"I'll do everything just to make the Moon shine just for you my love," he whispered while dancing me in a slow rhythm.

I smiled. "Maybe I still don't know you but I promise, when the moon shines on us like the star does. I will stay with you, forever," I whispered and I don't know where that words came from, I just feel like I'm so fucking safe in his arms.

Sinandal niya ang noo sa akin kaya napapikit ako. I felt him kiss my forehead and hugged me.

"Promise me, when all the people around us started to separate us. Don't leave me, promise me," he whispered and I opened my eyes.

I showed him my sincere and happy smile. "I promise to the moon and back that I won't listen to them, I'll only listen to you and I won't leave you."

Maybe the moon is not with us, but the stars will always lead their light to us.
