“M-Mom...” Napailing ako at hinawakan ang aking naninikip na dibdib. I can’t breathe. I am trying to calm myself but I couldn’t.

“Tinalikuran kami bigla ng malalaking taong negosyante. At ang meeting ng Daddy mo sa isang makapangyarihang negosyante ay hindi na sinipot ang Daddy mo. Imagine being with partner with those powerful people, mas malaki ang chance na lalaki ang ating kumpanya katulad nila. All of it was doing good like we had planned. But suddenly this happened. At first, we thought we are the one who’s in lack and no doing good...” she shook her head and glared at me.

“But we realized, your husband is the one who introduced them to us. All of them were coming from him. So, he is also the boss of them. I bet he's the one who ordered them to drop us and leave us behind!”

My mouth parted at what I heard. I was shocked and confused. I couldn’t even breathe properly. I shook my head and took a deep breath. “Mom...” I whimpered. I wanted to tell her that I couldn’t breathe

  • The Ruthless Man's Obsession    Chapter 23

    “Stop it.” Inangat ko na ang strap ng aking dress at nilingon siya. He’s looking at me intently, but his hand was still on me. “Accius, can you even tell me kung nasaan ko galing kanina? I was thinking about you the whole time. You always leave like that. Alam ko naman na hindi dapat ako nakikialam sa ginagawa mo pero…” I sighed and did not continue. I shook my head and got up from the bed. “I… I’ll just get some fresh air. I feel suffocated.” Nagtungo ako sa balcony ng aming kuwarto. I looked at my shaking hands. I bit my lower lip to stop my tears from falling. Hindi ko ininda ang lamig na bumabalot sa aking katawan dahil sa hangin at lamig ng labas. Naramdaman ko na lang ang roba kong binalot ang aking nilalamig na katawan. I turned at Accius who put his black silk robe on me. Habang siya ay topless at walang suot na roba dahil sinuot niya sa akin ang kaniya. He hugged me from the back and gently kissed my shoulder. Napapikit ako nang higpitan niya pa lalo ang kaniyang pagkayaka

    I flinched when he rubbed my cl*t with his middle finger. His other hand was on my belly. He leaned down and kissed my tummy while staring at me. I gasped and bit my lower lip because of the sensation. Nagbaba ang tingin ko sa kaniya at sinuklay ang kaniyang magulong buhok gamit ang aking daliri. "I'm tired…" I mumbled. Pinag dikit ko ang nanghihina kong mga hita. I can feel his arousal, still hard like steel. "I want more of you," he said huskily. Isang oras pa ang lumipad bago niya ako binitawan. I am so tired that I couldn't move my body. "How's your body?" Accius asked, entering our room while holding a tray of fruits. I smiled a bit and leaned on the backrest of my seat. He kissed my forehead and put the tray on the round table that was in front of me here in the balcony. Umupo siya sa tabi ko at kinuha ang tinidor. He feeds me, every feed of him will follow with a kiss on my lips. Napangiti ako at mahinang natawa. “I feel like a sick wife,” I said, chuckling softly. He smil

    “Yes po, Madame. H-Hindi ni’yo po ba alam?” tanong niya. She was a bit shocked that I did not know about that. I sighed. Guiltiness filled me. I didn’t even think about that. “What does he do on his birthday?” She sadly smiled. “Wala po talaga siyang ginagawa tuwing kaarawan niya. Nasa loob lang po siya ng kuwarto na ‘yon buong araw. Doon lang po siya nagpapahinga. Hindi ko nga po alam kung bakit tuwing kaarawan niya ay naroon siya. May mga araw naman po na umaalis siya pero bumabalik din po siya agad,” she paused, thinking about something.“Is he not spending his days with his friends?” I asked. “Hindi po. May isang beses po na pinuntahan siya ng mga kaibigan niyang galing pang ibang bansa at nagtungo dito para sa kaniya pero hindi niya po pinapasok. Ang sabi niya ay may pupuntahan daw po siyang importante.”“Really? Ano naman ang pinuntahan niya para gawin ‘yon sa mga kaibigan niya?” “Ang natatandaan ko po ay sinabi niyang may pupuntahan po siyang… graduation?” she said, unsure

    “Mom… C-Can you please enlighten me? What’s really happening? W-Why do you want me to leave this place?” “Sadie. Just listen to me! It is for your sake! I will explain it to you once you are here,” she said. Sa pananalita niya ay parang nagmamadali siya. Ang aniyang boses ay parang bumubulong. Sumulyap ako sa pintuan at agad na nagtungo sa walk-in closet ko. “M-Mom… I” I held my hand that was holding my phone because it was shaking so bad. Huminga ako ng malalim at handa nang sabihin sa ina ang nakita kanina. “What— I’ll end the call now. Your father is here.”“Mom–” I sighed and bit my lower lip. Napahilamos na lang ako sa mukha at pabagsak na umupo sa single couch. "Doll." Napatayo ako nang marinig ang marahang boses ni Accius. He sounds so gentle. "Doll, please. I love you so much. I'm not going to do anything that will hurt you. I'll apologize if I kept a secret from you. I'll kneel if I need to.""Please, Wife. Open the door. I'm begging you," his voice cracked. Para akong m

    “F*ck, Dollina!” his voice roared. I started shaking because of him and the cold.“Please!” I shouted. Humigpit ang braso niya sa baywang ko. Gamit ang isang braso ay nagawa niya akog ilagay sa kaniyang balikat na parang isang sakong bigas. Gusto kong lumaban para lang makalayo pero hindi ko magawa dahil hinang-hina na ‘ko. My body was shaking. But Accius' body was warm. I wanted to hug him and hide inside his big body to feel his warmth. “Let me go…” I mumbled. Hinang-hina na ang katawan ko na pakiramdam ko ay bibigay na. Bago magdilim ang aking paningin, nanlumo ako sa huling binitawan na mga salita ni Accius. “I will never let you go, Dollina. Not on my f*cking watch.” My body was numb when I woke up. Para akong binagsakan ng mabigat na bagay. I bit my lower lip and sobbed when I realized that I’m back here in our huge room. I pulled my hair out of frustration. Dali-dali akong umalis sa kama. Iba na ang suot ko at malinis na ang katawan ko. I’m now wearing a black night gown.

    I ran as fast as I could. I could hear his voice calling my name. I wanted to look back, but I can’t. “Dollina!” His voice was so loud and deep. Dahil sa mahahaba niyang biyas ay alam kong mahuhuli niya ako. “Please… Don’t. Don’t run away from me,” his voice cracked, and the pain and panic in his voice mixed up. Kinuha ko ang aking phone at tinawagan si Kyle. I couldn't reach him, his phone was in airplane mode. Si Reed ang sunod kong tinawagan. It took so many rings before he finally answered. Patuloy ako sa pagtakbo. Hindi ko na maramdaman ang hapdi sa aking paa na wala ng suot na sapatos. My feet are now numb from running nonstop. I heard the tiredness in his voice as he answered. “I’m sorry, I just came out from work— Wait, are you okay? Why is your breathing so fast? What’s the matter?” “R-Reed. Can you come and g-get me? N-Now. I need your help, Reed. Come here faster.” “F*ck— Where the f*ck are you? Tell me. I’ll go there,” he said. “I… I don’t know,” I cried. Lumibot an

    “We finally… came back,” Mom said with a small smile on her lips. She turned to me and smiled. I smiled back and looked around the place. It's been years. “Ah. You’re just a little girl back then when we were still here. I guess you can’t remember your memories here,” aniya at hinawi ang hibla ng aking buhok na nakaharang sa aking mukha dahil sa hangin. You’re wrong, Mom. Even when I was just a kid back then, I can still remember your sweet smiles, your sweet words, and the comfort you’re giving to me. All of it when you’re still treating me like a princess. I forced a smile and looked down. “Let’s go?” ani Dad nang makalapit na sa amin. Pumasok na kami sa aming sasakyan patungo sa dati naming mansyon. Reed, Kyle and Levi called me as I arrived here in Spain. “Your Abuela called, Sadie. She wants to see us,” Mom said. Nilingon ko siya at dahan-dahan na tumango. “Is that okay?” I nodded and smiled, assuring her. She nodded and I looked away. I pursed my lips and unconsciously b

    Sa pagtira ko rito sa Spain sa mga nagdaang linggo, kahit paano ay maayos naman ang buhay ko. Mom is now extra taking care of me. Alam ko na bumabawi siya sa akin. Nang makabangon ako mula sa paghiga ay agad ako nakaramdam ng hilo. Nanlalamig ang loob ng katawan ko. Sa bilis ng pangyayari ay nahanap ko na lang ang aking sarili sa banyo, nagsusuka. Ito na naman. Naulit na naman. Hindi lang ito ngayon nangyari sa akin. Ngayon ay balak ko nang magpa check-up kung ano ba itong nangyayari sa akin. It's always like this. Laging masama ang pakiramdam ko. And I once felt scared. Scared that maybe… I am sick. Hindi na normal ang nangyayari sa akin. "Buenos días, Doc." Nakangiti rin sa akin ang doktora at bumati pabalik. "So how are you feeling these days?" I sighed. Sinagot ko ang unang tanong niya. Marami pa siyang tanong na sinagot ko. Sa huling bitaw ko ng salita ay doon lang ako nag-angat ng tingin sa kaniya. That's when I noticed her expression. Nakakunot ang kaniyang noo habang titi

    "Doll? What's the matter?" I stopped when I heard Accius' voice. Napalingon ako at nakita si Accius na pumasok sa aking kwarto. I smiled and sat on the couch in my room. He sat beside me and kissed my forehead. I suddenly realized how exhausted I was. I let my body rest on him. Sumandal siya sa backrest habang ako ay nakasandal sa kaniyang katawan. I buried my face on his neck. The warmth in his body was relaxing. His arms were wrapped around my waist. I felt his other hand enter under my shirt. Mas naramdaman ko ang init ng kaniyang palad sa balat ko habang humahaplos ang kaniyang kamay sa aking likod. "How's the twins? Tulog na ba?" I asked while relaxing in his body. He hummed and kissed the top of my head. "They're already sleeping. They wanted us to have a time together," he said. I chuckled. Nagtagal kami na ganoon hanggang sa hindi ko namalayan na nakatulog ako. Nagising na lamang ako nang mag umaga na. Bumaba ako at nakita si Accius na naghahanda ng pagkain sa lamesa. “G

    Galing ako sa kusina patungo sa living room ng bahay nang madatnan ko ang tatlong mag-aama na magkakasama roon habang masayang nag-uusap. The twins look so hapy with their big smile while talking with their father. Tutok naman si Accius sa kanilang mga sinasabi habang may mga ngiti sa kaniyang mga labi. Maya-maya pa ay nakaramdam na nang antok si Archer kaya nagtungo na ito sa kaniyang kuwarto. Sirena was in her Dad’s arms. Nakatulog na ito sa mga bisig niya habang kandong ito. Nag-angat ng tingin sa akin si Accius at tumayo habang maingat na buhat sa si Sirena.“Where’s her room?” Dinala ko siya patungo sa room ni Sirena. He gently put Sirena on her bed. Inayos ko na lang ang pagkakahiga niya at hinalikan siya sa noo. I turned at Accius who were staring at us. Papalabas na kami sa room ni Sirena nang bigla siyang magsalita. “Let’s talk, Doll.”I nodded and we headed to the veranda of my house. Pinagdiklop ko ang aking mga kamay at pasimpleng sumulyap sa kaniya na nasa malayo ang t

    “What do you mean, Mommy?” I got their full attention now. “Do you want to meet your father?” maingat kong tanong. “We can meet our Dad, Ma?” Archer’s confused little voice. I nodded. “Yes. baby. If you two want that, then, we will.” “Of course, Mommy! That’s my dream.” I can see how excited she is. Ganoon din si Archer na may ngiti sa mga labi. “Can we finally meet our Dad? Is that okay?” I nodded at Archer to assure him. It’s Sirena’s dream, and Archer’s wanted it for a long time. Hindi ko alam na ganoon nila kagusto na makilala si Accius. I don’t know what his opinion would be if he found out that we have twins. Back then he wanted to have kids with me. Nagbago kaya ‘yon? But after all. I’ll respect his decision. I’ll accept his words and decision. I hide them from him. Days passed. Hindi ko pa rin nakakausap si Vienna. I'm not visiting her in the mansion and I'm too busy at my office to see her. Nasabi rin ni Mommy na busy siya sa kumpanya. "Mr. Vasquez visited earlier, Ms

    "Mommy. Abuela and Abuelo are here na? We will go to their mansion to visit?" Sirena asked while fixing her ribbon clip in her hair. "Yes, Sirena. And remember what I've told you? You'll meet your Tita Vienna. My sister," I smiled. "Will she like us?" Sirena tilted her head and looked at me with her innocent look. "Of course, baby." When we arrived at the mansion, Mom was already there, waiting for us with the foods she cooked. Tumakbo ang dalawa patungo sa kaniya. Mom hugged both of them. Tuwang-tuwa na makita ang kambal. Mabilis niyang ma-miss ang dalawa kaya paniguradong miss na miss niya na ang dalawa. She adores the two more than me. But that's fine with me, they can love my kids more than me. Ang gusto ko lang ay ang mahalin nila at iparamdam iyon sa dalawa. I don't care about myself anymore. All I care about is my kids. "Hi, Mom. Where's Dad and Vienna?" I asked when U noticed that she's the only one here. She sighed. "Papunta na ang Dad mo. I told him that he should free

    “Niccolo. It’s been a long time. I’m happy to see you again.” Napaiwas ako ng tingin nang ilahad ni Dad ang kaniyang kamay upang makipag kamayan ngunit tinignan lamang iyon ni Accius. “I need to go with Dollina now. It’s nice meeting you again.” He said in a formal way. “Ah, already? Dad?” Vienna interrupted. “Oh, right. Niccolo. You already know her, right? She’s Vienna, my daughter. Sadie’s older sister. I hope you two will get along since we’re together here in our company."“Ah, hi. It’s nice meeting you, Niccolo. I’m Vienna,” Vienna smiled shyly. I can’t tell if she’s intimidated by his presence. Accius just nodded at her and turned at me. I knew he wanted to leave together with me but I should come with my father and sister. They came here unexpectedly. Nagtungo na kami sa opisina ni Dad. I told Accius that I’ll just massage him. I should be with my sister first. “Anyway. I wanna see your office, Sadie. Should we go there?” Vienna said. “Sure. Dad will come with us?” She s

    “Ma.” Archer smiled at me and gave me a hug. “Nasa room pa rin ang kapatid mo?” tanong ko. Tumango siya. “I think she’s doing her homework, Ma. I’m done with mine and I’m just reading my book now.”“That’s good. Tell me if you need something.” He nodded. Tumayo na ako at akmang aalis nang magsalita siya. “You said you’ll explain, Ma.” Natigilan ako. I gulped and tried to calm myself. “He’s one of our business partners, Archer.” I caressed his head. He slowly nodded. “Business partner,” ulit niya sa sinabi ko. “He looks like… someone I know though.” He tilted his head. “Really? Did you see his face clearly?”He shook his head. “No. I did not since you’re far from here.”I nodded and sigh in relief. “Alright. Continue reading your book.”“But… I saw him kiss your forehead, Ma. Does a business partner do that?” He asked casually. Muntik na akong masamid sa sarili kong laway. D*mn, how could I explain that? “No, anak. I–” He smiled. “It’s okay, Ma. I shouldn't have ask

    “W-what?” “Come here, Sadie. Greet your sister. You missed her, right? We are always missing her. And now, a miracle. God gave her back to us.” I looked at the woman… Vienna. Vienna, my sister. My sister died so many years ago. But then, she’s alive? How did that even happen? This is so unexpected. Ang laking impact nito sa akin para maintindihan. My sister is alive!“Sadie?” Her sweet voice. Lumapit siya sa akin at matamis ang ngiti sa mukha. She looks so different. Hindi ko na nga siya nakilala. Mga bata pa kami noong inakala namin nawala siya sa aksidente. But I guess, miracles are true. She’s alive, she survived for all these years that we thought we lost her! She looks so mature. I am a bit taller than her. But looking at her now, we looked so different. She has this soft look and friendly vibes. Napagtanto kong may hawig ito kay Dad. She’s beautiful. Kumpara sa aking katawan na makurba ay ganoon naman ang kaniyang may kalakihan na hinaharap. She’s attractive with her looks. I

    I took a half bath and wore a white silk nightgown from Elena. Hanggang gitna ng hita ko lang ito kaya lantad ang aking hita. Pagod akong napaupo sa kama at inayos ang strap ng aking suot. Nahiga na ako sa kama at agad namang nakatulog. My heavy eyes opened when I heard a knock on my door. Tumingin ako sa oras at nakitang alas dos na ng madaling araw. Tumayo ako at binuksan ang pinto. Nagulat ako nang makita si Accius na lasing na lasing. Mukhang uminom pa ito nang matapos akong ihatid. I looked down at his messy hair."What are you doing here, Accius?" Napaiwas ako ng tingin at inayos ang nahuhulog na strap ng aking suot. Bumaba ang tingin niya sa lantad kong mga hita. "Accius. What are you doing here?" ulit ko. He bit his lower lip and didn't answer. I froze when he suddenly entered my room and hugged me so tight. Muntik pa akong mawalan ng balanse dahil lasing siya. His arms automatically wrapped around my waist and buried his face on the side of my neck. "I'm sorry, Doll. I dr

    Nang umalis siya, hindi ko alam ang gagawin kung hihintayin ba siya o hindi. I heard my phone ring. I answered Elena’s call. She’s already looking for me so I have no choice but to go there already. Nagbaba ang aking tingin sa maputing buhangin. Inalis ko ang slippers ko at hinawakan iyon para madama ang buhangin. I smiled when I felt the sand relaxing. I wish I could take a picture of the beautiful sea and send it to my babies, but my phone is not with me. “Sadie! Here!” Elena’s voice. Lumapit ako sa kanila. Hindi niya kasama ang asawa niya. She’s with her friends I guess. Ang iba roon ay same age sa akin. Hinila niya ako papalapit sa mga babae na kasama niya. The girls seem friendly. They’re smiling at me as they welcomed me. I looked at the lights above me. Ang daming ilaw sa paligid na bagay sa vibe ng dagat. It’s already sunset. They are busy talking so I thought of walking to the seashore. Walang tao roon dahil nagtipon silang lahat dito. The hem of my dress danced because of
