The Volunteer Bride Hamlet Dunnotar castle
*Alana*Kung kailan naman tila naging maayos 'yong marriage ko saka naman naging biglang tila isang bangungot ang lahat. Pilit kong tinakasan ang bangungot na ito sa loob ng mahabang panahon sa pag-aakalang maiiwasan ko ito habang buhay. Francesco was the monster that was creeping inside of me. He's the one who destroyed my childhood and my whole life. I suffered enough from his grudge. I pay for the sin that I haven't committed. Allessandro spent almost ten years trying to find the culprit in his parents deaths, and I'm here hiding, acting like I didn't know anything. It really kills me every time I see him. I'm stuck; I didn't know what to choose. I may be selfish, but I couldn't risk my life. I knew the whole damn truth, but my mouth was as covered with fear as my soul. I wouldn't die yet; I will be a mom in a few months. I had to be wise even though my conscience had persecuted me a million times. This is my way to live for my child, for Allessandro, and for all the people I love.
The Volunteer Bride Purple Orchid Hotel
*Allessandro*I thought I lose Alana. No words are able to describe how scared I was after I open all the hidden pages of my life to her. The hours that she was not with me was a torture. It felt like I'm losing my blood every seconds. I'm afraid I failed again but Alana was different to anyone just like my first impression after I glance at her walking on the aisle with a veil covering her face."Ay baklang palaka!" Gulat na gulat si Alana nang pumasok ako ng shower room.She covered herself with her hands."Hindi ka ba marunong kumatok?" Halos sigaw niya.Ngumiti lang ako."I just want to check if you're done," I replied."Hmm... seriously?" Nakataas ang kilay na tanong niya.Humakbang ako palapit sa kaniya.Bakas na ang baby bump niya. Hanggang ngayon nahihiwagaan pa rin ako sa mga nangyayari. I will be a dad soon, it's a bit terrifying and exciting at the same time."What?" Nakatitig siya sa mga mata ko."Am I not allowed to be here?" I teased.She opened the shower and wet hersel
The Volunteer Bride You may now kiss the bride
*Alana*"What!" Halos sumabog ang eardrums ko nang marinig ko ang sinabi ni Alena.Hindi ko sukat akalaing maririnig ko iyon sa kapatid ko siguro ay nagbibiro lamang siya or maybe she wanted to annoyed me. "I'm getting married next week." Muli niyang sinabi.Napa angat ang isang kilay ko. Hindi yata ito magandang biro. Bakit bigla-bigla yata ang naging desisyon ni Alena?Sa pagkaka alam ko ay wala siyang boyfriend kaya imposible ang sinasabi niya."Teka lang, may sakit ka ba?" Lumapit pa ako sa kaniya at hinawakan ang noo niya pati na rin ang leeg niya."I'm totally fine." Maikling wika niya na para yatang naiirita sa ginagawa ko.Concerned lang naman ako sa kaniya. Mahalaga sa akin ang pamilya ko, wala akong ibang hiling kundi ang makita silang masaya. Mababaw lang ang kaligayahan ko, okay na ako sa tuwing nasisilayan ang mga ngiti nila lalo na 'yong ngiti ng papa ko.Ayaw ko sanang lumuha ngunit sa tuwing nakikita ko ang kalagayan ng papa ko 'di ko mapigilang mapahagulgol. Halos
The Volunteer Bride The honeymoon
*Allessandro*"Mauro, do I have to be with her for a week?" Naiirita kong tanong habang pinagmamasdan siyang ini impake ang mga damit ko.I hate being with any girl.Wala sa agenda ng buhay ko ang pumunta ng ibang bansa para lang mag spend ng time sa isang babae. It's a waste of time. Mas gugustuhin ko pa ang magkulong sa loob ng kuwarto ko at magtrabaho maghapon.Hindi ko maintindihan kong bakit kailangan ko pang gawin ito. I have already married her. Sa totoo lang wala lang talaga akong choice. Ni'y hindi sinabi sa akin ni Mauro na ako pala ang ikakasal 'nung araw na pumunta kami ng simbahan. It's a surprise na sobrang ikinagulat ko as in. Paano pa ako aatras kung naroroon lahat ng pamilya ko pati na rin ang napakaraming mga usyoserong reporters."She's your wife, Allessandro." Maikling tugon niya.Napa ismid ako."Wife. I didn't know anything about her. How come she became my wife?" I said, still iritated.Napatingin siya sa akin."I made sure that she's capable of being your wife.
The Volunteer Bride The assassination
*Alana*Napatayo ako bigla mula sa pagkakaupo ko sa ibabaw ng kama. Bigla na lamang namatay ang ilaw sa kuwarto. Mabuti na lang at may emergency light na nasa lamesa sa gilid ng kama. Binuksan ko ang emergency light at dahan-dahang lumabas ng kuwarto. Matapang akong tao, sigurado ako 'dun ngunit takot ako sa madilim. Kung anu-ano na ang pumasok sa isipan ko. Jusko nagsisi ako na nanuod ako ng horror movie sa Netflix nakaraang gabi.Ang creepy pa naman ng movie na 'yun. Ayaw ko ng isipin pa ang buong details. Patay din ang ilaw sa labas ng kuwarto hanggang sa sala. Sinilip ko ang labas ng villa. May ilaw naman sa gate siguro ay may problema lang sa breaker. Baka aksidenteng na off iyon. Hinanap ko ang breaker at masuwerte ako dahil natagpuan ko ito kaagad. Sinilip ko ang loob at nakita kong naka off nga. Kaya inopen ko ulit. Nakahinga ako ng maluwag nang makitang maliwanag na ang buong paligid. Dali-dali akong umakyat pabalik ng kuwarto ngunit laking gulat ko nang makitang madilim pa
The Volunteer Bride Can I have this dance
*Allessandro*"Benvenuto Signore." Magalang na pagbati ng isang lalaki pagkalabas ko ng sasakyan. Nasa Italy ako ngayon kasama si Alana at nasa harap ako ngayon ng Ceilo hotel. Pag aari ito ng isa sa mga kakilala ko sa negosyo. Actually pauwi na sana kami ng Pilipinas kaya lang may biglang tumawag sa akin last night and he insisted me to attend to a ball. My father was born here in Italy, napadpad lang siya sa Philippines dahil nabihag ng isang dalagang Pilipina ang puso niya. He met my mom in Italy when she was on vacation here. At simula noong araw na nakita niya si mom ay hindi na niya ito hinayaang makawala pa. Sinundan niya ito sa Pilipinas at nanatili roon ng halos isang buwan. Araw-araw niyang binibisita si mom sa bahay nito. He's persistent because he knows what he really wanted at iyon ay ang mabihag din ang puso ni mom katulad ng ginawa nito sa kaniya. Napukaw ang ginawa kong pagbabalik tanaw sa nakaraan nang makita ang paglabas ni Alana sa sasakyan. She's wearing her black
The Volunteer Bride Welcome home
Pagkatapos ng sampung araw ay heto ako ngayon muli kong babalikan ang mga bagay na iniwan ko sa hindi ko kagustuhang paraan.Allessandro insisted on sending me home, but I refused his offer.Hindi pa ako handang sabihin sa lahat na I already married.Baka walang maniwala.Updated kaya lahat ng mga marites dito sa amin. Alam na alam nilang wala akong boyfriend kaya kapag sinabi kong may asawa na ako ay baka maloka sila sa kaiisip kung paano nangyari iyon. Pagbaba ko ng taxi ay nakita ko si Jack.Halos patakbo siyang lumapit sa akin."Welcome home! Kung saan-saan ka namin hinanap ni Alena. Saan ka ba nagsususuot?" Bungad niya na tila nanenermon.Umismid ako.Sinasabi ko na nga ba malamang sa malamang pina blotter na ako ni Alena."Ano na, Alana? Halos mabaliw kami kahahanap sa'yo." Untag muli niya. Huminga ako ng malalim."Kamusta na si Papa?" Alam kong hindi iyon ang akmang kasagutan sa mga tanong ni Jack subalit gusto kong malaman kung naging successful ba ang operation niya o kung n
The Volunteer Bride Mrs. Castellucio
*Allessandro*"Diego, pick up my wife right now. I want her to be in my house right now." Bossy kong utos sa bagong driver ko.I have to hire a new one because Mr. Garcia needs to recover from the mess that he got into while working on me.I bow to him. He's very dedicated to his job. I want to keep him, but I have to let him go.Malakas ang kutob ko na ang mga tauhan ni Russo ang nagtangkang kumitil sa buhay ni Steeve. They have to pay for what they did. I've already settled everything for them. I don't want to be more cruel. I can't kill him yet, but I can make his life crumble into pieces. I will make him suffer slowly until he has no choice but to choke himself because of frustration and guilt. Well, I loved torturing anyone who deserved to be tortured."Did you hear me? I want my wife here in my house right now." Kinailangan ko pang ulitin ang sinabi ko ilang segundo palang ang nakalilipas. Parang hindi yata kasi ako naintindihan ni Diego."Yes, Mr. Castellucio, I understand." Ma

The Volunteer Bride The revelations
*Alana*"I want an ice cream." Lambing ko kay Allessandro."Alana, I'm working." Tugon niya habang nakatuon ang buong atensiyon sa laptop niya."Gusto ko nga ng ice cream." Pangungulit ko.He sighed.He looked at me."You can buy outside or call Mauro." Deritsong sabi niya.Napabuga ako ng hangin. Bakit hindi niya ma-sense 'yong gusto ko? Kahit sobrang nakakabagot dito sa office niya ay sumama ako dahil 'yon 'yong gusto niya. Ang dami ko dapat gagawin sa noodles house peru mas pinili kong samahan siya dito sa opisina niya. "Fine, I will call him." Aniya nang mapansing nakabusangot ako.Tumayo ako saka deri-deritsong lumabas ng silid. Nakakainis siya masyadong insensitive. Bakit kailangan pa niyang iasa sa iba 'yong dapat ay responsibilidad niya?Jusme! Nakakainis."Alana!" Sigaw niya.Hindi ko siya pinansin. Sa halip ay mas binilisan ko pa ang paghakbang ko hanggang sa marating ko ang elevator. Kaagad akong pumasok sa loob saka pinindot ang ground floor. "Ma'am Alana, uuwi na po ba
The Volunteer Bride Tablecloth
*Allessandro*"I will give you 10 days, Ricardo. Find out who's trying to destroy me, and if you fail, I'm sorry, but you will die." I whispered."How many times do I have to tell you I'm not involved in any of this sh*t?" He clenched his jaw.I shrugged.I don't care if he's involved or not; I wanted someone to pay for the mess they made in my life."Just do as I say." I ordered."And one more thing, I'm watching you." I warned as I tapped his shoulder."Don't threaten me, Allessandro. I'm not the enemy here." He smirked."I'm not threatening you. I'm just informing you. Don't you dare betray me." I whispered as I stepped away from him.If not because of Alana, he's now resting in his cold coffin. He was lucky that heaven still had mercy on him. I tightened my grip on the steering wheel as I remembered what Alana had confessed to me. Is she really pregnant? Am I going to be a dad?So what will happen to our annulment?The questions in my mind were like sand on the seashore. I badly n
The Volunteer Bride Stock room
*Alana*"Alam mo sumusobra na talaga 'yang Andrea na yan. Kung makaasta akala mo pag-aari niya si Allessandro." Naiinis kong kuwento."Bakit ba affected ka? Ilang araw na lang ay hindi mo na asawa si Allessandro dapat wala ka ng pakialam sa kanilang dalawa ng Andrea na 'yon." Ani Molly.Tumulis ang nguso ko."Kanino ka ba kampi sa'kin o kay Andrea?" Puna ko.Ngumisi siya saka nag-peace sign.Nakakainit lang talaga ng ulo 'yong ginagawa ni Andrea. Kapag ako napikon ng tuluyan nako!"Siyempre sa'yo. Ang point ko lang naman ay dapat dedma mo na sila." Paglilinaw niya.Biglang dumating si Giorgia. Hindi yata maganda ang timpla ng mood."Alana, can we talk?" Bungad niya.Nakapagtataka ang pagiging pormal niya pati na rin ang tono ng boses niya.Ano kayang problema ni Giorgia at ang aga yata niyang napasugod dito sa noodles house. Hindi niya kasama si Giorge kaya alam kong hindi siya magtatagal.Lumipat kami ng area kung saan malimit lamang ang mga diner."I want a favor from you." Deritson
The Volunteer Bride Camping
*Allessandro*I'm just giving Alana her right to be free, but I couldn't help myself when I saw her wearing Federico's shirt. I wanted Alana to live the life she wanted. It's true that love makes human hearts weak; that's what happened to mine. I destroyed my own wall and let myself be vulnerable. I wish I hadn't ruined my barrier, so no one was able to make me feel anything."How was your mission?" Tanong ni Francesco.I shrugged."Great," I replied.Malinis akong magtrabaho kaya walang sabit. I earned a billion dollars for shooting the president of Croatia, and that money belongs to Blue Knuckles. I just followed the order and got paid. I guess this is my specialty in life. I didn't have any conscience left because I threw it all away many years ago. I forgot about it since my parents' assassination. "Great, but look at you. Don't tell me your conscience started to persecute you." He laughed.I chuckled.I tried to lie and act like everything was incredible, but I couldn't convince
The Volunteer Bride Cactus
*Alana*Nagpupuyos ako sa galit. Hindi ko alam kung nananadya si Allessandro o nagkataon lang na ilang beses ko silang makitang magkasama ni Andrea. Magkasama sila sa isang party at ngayon laman sila ng news."Bakit parang pinagsakluban ka ng langit at lupa?" Tanong ni Alena.Kumunot ang noo ko.Kanina bago ako umuwi ng bahay ay kumain kami ni Molly sa isang Chinese restaurant. Ang sarap ng pagkain hindi uso sa'kin ang diet kaya lumamon na ako. Hindi ko pa nakakalahati 'yong dumplings ko ay bigla akong nawalan ng gana dahil sa pagpasok sa restaurant ni Allessandro at Andrea."Pagod lang ako." Pagsusunungaling ko peru sa totoo lang gusto ko ng bumuga ng apoy sa inis."Marcello invite for a dinner." Maya-maya ay sabi niya."Bakit ayaw mo siyang ipakilala kay Papa?" Tanong ko saka pasalampak na naupo sa sopa.I feel exhausted.Umasim ang mukha ni Alena."Bakit ko ipapakilala?" Nakataas ang kilay niyang tanong.Ibig sabihin hindi pa boyfriend ni Alena si Marcello?"Akala ko ba in a relati
The Volunteer Bride Table 10
*Alana*"Naghihintay kang habulin ka nang habulin ni Allessandro?" Tila nanenermon na tanong ni Molly.Isang malalim na hininga ang pinakawalan ko. Tatlong linggo na ang nakakaraan simula noong huli kaming nag-usap ni Allessandro pagkatapos 'non ay hindi na siya tumawag pa o nagpakita sa'kin. Bagay na ipinagtataka ko o baka napagod na siya. Baka sumuko na rin siya tulad ko. Mas okay nga 'yon at least hindi na magiging mahirap pa ang lahat. Peru bakit parang may parte sa puso ko na nalulungkot? Bakit tila may biglang panghihinayang akong naramdaman?"Hindi. Nagtataka lang ako kung bakit hindi siya tumawag man lang o ano...." Hindi ko nagawang itulog ang sasabihin ko."Ano? Kulitin ka? Suyuin ka? Papadalhan ka ng flowers and sorry letters?" Bulyaw ni Molly."Hay nako! Bakit kasi tinulak mo siya palayo kung mahal mo pa naman talaga siya? May pa-annul annul ka pang nalalaman e ayaw mo naman palang mawala sa'yo 'yong tao." Patuloy niya sa panenermon.Nagkibit balikat lamang ako.Am I regre
The Volunteer Bride The Annulment
*Allessandro*"What's Alana doing in Atty. Salazar's office?" Kunot noo kong tanong kay Marcello.He shrugged."Why don't you ask her?" Pabalik niyang tanong.Alana was too confusing. After we did our elevator thing, she didn't show herself to me again. I tried to call her, but maybe she blocked my number just like she always did. She's having a great time annoying me."She's avoiding me." Maikling wika ko.Atty. Salazar was one of my friends. I had to ask him what Alana's plan was."You guys are like the bulb in my room." He commented."On and off, it was like blinking non-stop. I don't understand what the problem is with it." He continued."I don't understand what her problem is." I replied."Do you still want to keep her?" Seryosong tanong niya.Heaven and hell knew how much I wanted my wife back. There's no doubt about it. "Marcello, Alana is my wife. I admit I married her because I had no choice, but it changed as I knew her completely." I reasoned. He sighed."We have to talk
