I was trapped and dazed, I could feel my heart race for a moment. I wanted to stop feeling this way, but it's slowly escaping, aching for romance.
"Hezekiah..." my lips said.
I couldn't recognized my voice anymore. It was late when I realized what I said. His forehead creasedin confusion. I quickly averted my eyes away from him.
"You called me what?" he asked seriously and never left my eyes.
"I–I'm sorry... I was just, tired.." I said, eyes on the ground.
He abruptly grabbed my arm and stared at me in disbelief. "Hezekiah, I heard you called me that name." His face was a whole question mark as I felt his grip getting tighter.
I chuckled slightly and shook my head. "I want to rest, just lock the door when you leave..."
I harshly pulled my arm away from him. Not looking back, I entered one of the rooms and locked the door.
That was close, Meredith. It was the perfect time to confess that I'm his wife but I was scared. I
"Hmm, he's handsome, don't you find him attractive?" he lowered his eyelids to look at her. "What? Of course not..." Alessandra chuckly said. Gabriel glanced at me and poured his glass a drink before pouring mine. "He likes you," he said in a low volume. Alessandra's eyes widened as she faced her husband. "No, he doesn't. We're just friends!" her lips quivered, tears filling her eyes to the brim. I witnessed how Gabriel pulled her into a hug. Alessandra buried her face on his chest. I slowly blinked my eyes, just like how painfully slow my heart is tearing apart. I quickly looked down and drank the whiskey. "Join them," he said in a hushed voice and dipped his head to kiss her on the lips. Because of my deep love for him, he could easily hurt my vulnerable feelings like what he did right now. It was a quick kiss but it can't comfort the pain that's slowly arising in my heart. "You're not mad?" Alessandra
I FILLED my lungs with gusty air and proudly flaunted my body towards the water. When I reached the right depth of the water, I started to dive underneath the salty water. The coldness of the water made my lips quiver, but I didn't mind. I just wanted to wash away everything although the water level is getting higher due ti high tide. I breathed in real slow. The flaming rage in my heart disappeared completely. I felt refreshed and light as I stayed longer. The moon guided me through the water deeply. I was challenged to dive deeper. I could see nothing but pitch-black darkness. When I felt the waves' current getting stronger, i decided to swim back up. When I thought it's easy to swim up, I suddenly felt pain on my legs. It made me nervous. My leg was cramped and strained so bad that I could hardly move it. A scream came out of my mouth before I drowned. I tried so hard to swim but I just can't. I'm drowning and panicking. I wanted to find the water'
Under the dim lights, I could see his subtle reaction that made me shiver. I know it's wrong to ask him but I'll stand by my decision. "Instead of questioning what I did, why don't you just thank me?" He lowered his head to make an eye to eye contact with me. I can't seem to stand his stares for long so I was the first one to look away. "Thank you... for saving my life," I muttered. He laughed at my response, completely different than what I've expected. He pulled the glass from my grasp and placed it on the table. "You should take a rest. I'll lead you to your room." Before I could even refuse, he already started walking towards my cottage. But I held his hand tightly to stop him which made him turn to me. I tightened my grip on his wrist when he lowered his gaze at me. His eyes lingered at me. I also heard his gnashing teeth clearly. "Ahm, I-I just wanted a minute alone with you..." I honestly said. He looked
AGAIN, his cold lips brushed against mine as he tugged me closer. I bravely clutched my weary fingers at the back of his head and ran my index through his hair and he groans loudly. He shoved his tongue in my mouth with a delicious lick and I shuddered in pleasure, I held his nape tightly as I tried to answer his kisses with the same ferocity. He swiftly took my night gown's sleeve off. I tried not to make a sound when I felt his hand between my thighs as he brushes his fingers over my wet lady part. He tore his mouth from mine and starts sucking on my neck, hand reaching up over my breast and squeezes it hard. I can't help but to release soft moans as I bit my lips in pleasure. He leaned in and licked one of my throbbing nipples. I threw my head up as I received his sinful kisses. My lips parted at the poisonous sensation slowly eating me. His tongue went softer and slower. His touch was spiraling through my back, lingering there, sliding ben
"Gab–" I immediately zipped my lips when he opened his eyes. His eyes was back to its usual black color. His expression seemed firmer as his jaw was locked as if permanently. "Eat first, I need to do something," he said in a low voice. I couldn't do anything when he already turned his back on me, but since I'm not really hungry, I decided to follow him. From the window, I could see him talking to someone through the phone. I saw him shake his head while talking. He then rubbed his neck and lifted his head skywards. When he ended the call, that's when I closed the curtain. I got back to the kitchen like nothing happened. I heard his heavy steps slowly getting near. "It's getting late, I'll drop you to your cottage," he said, emotionless. My head nodded, I didn't bother to ask him. I placed the menudo that I cooked inside the refrigerator, I don't have any idea if he's still gonna eat it or not. Just like earlier, we walk
I wandered my eyes around the office. The room was dark because the curtains covered the windows. There's nothing in this room except the lounge and the coffee table, the working table and the two chairs on the front. The table was clean, so as the royal blue wall that has no displays and hanging frames. I heard the door opened and closing, and the gentle strides walking towards me. I didn't have the chance to turn when he talked behind me. "How was your sleep?" a familiar voice lingered through my ear. I was nailed into my place. My entire body tensed up, I could feel sweats drenching all over my skin and my blood pulsing through my veins. I shut my eyes up, unable to answer him. Instead, I quickly faced to ask him but my tongue stiffened at his playful smile. He looked very fresh and handsome in his white long sleeve polo with black trouser suit, and his butter soft leather shoes. I don't need to ask if he's the owner of the
"IT WAS just an accident, it was true that I was just walking around..." I whispered. I bit my lips which I knew he saw. He did not response, he leaned his back against the chair and looked at me. I know he's still not convinced. In the end, he just shrugged. He didn't talk and didn't bother to open a new conversation between us. While me, I was slowly getting swallowed by my conscience. I know he deserved to know everything. But why am I so scared of hearing his answer after? I've been thinking it over, but why can't I still say it whenever we're together. "Finish your food, the yacht will arrive at an island in about a minute," he said coldly. He brought his used tissue on the table and stood up. I gulped when he walked out the room. Minutes had passed before I finally realized what I did. I held my head and ducked down the table. I have to tell him the truth. This is my last chance, if I don't tell him the truth before we re
I gave a nervous glance at him. "Aren't you afraid of us getting caught?" He chuckled innocently at me and ignored everything that I'd just said. I shook my head at him. Holy fuck! This is fucking ridiculous. Is this what he's planning? To make me his mistress? Oh, hell yes! This is what I've been planning, but I never expected that this will actually happen. "Don't worry, I take my work very seriously. Alexa knows how professional I am when it comes to work," he said in a gentle tone, hinting something. I nodded and gave him a curled lip and casually averted my gaze upon him. Why can't I stop myself from giving meanings to his words? "Let's go..." Gabriel covered my hand with his. My breath hitched a little as he started walking, taking me with him. I can feel my heart slowly melting at his warm hands. I was cowering my head as we. I feel so small at the way people looked at me. I felt like we are so far from each other althou
