Angel

My manager sent me home early, saying he'd clock me out since the workday was almost over. I thanked her and started getting ready to leave.

As I walked toward the ride stop, I glanced at a convenience store. Without thinking twice, I went in, even though I had no idea what I would buy. I headed straight to the back, where the drinks were, and grabbed a beer without much thought.

I don't drink because I don't like the taste, but I couldn't help it this time. I was upset with Salvatore. Honestly, I'm way better looking than that old spoiled woman! So why was he looking at her and not me?

After paying for the beer and some snacks I picked up at the counter, I sat on one of the chairs inside the store. There were seats outside, but I didn't want to risk it—who knows if some crazy person would pass by and mess with me.

I started drinking the beer with my snack, which I was glad I bought because the drink was really bitter. How do people even like this stuff? And they drink it like wa

    Mature ConntentAngelAs I opened my eyes, my head hurt like it was being pounded. I looked around and noticed I was alone in the room. I glanced at the bedside table and saw from the alarm clock that it was almost ten a.m., widening my eyes."Shit! I'm late for class!" I jumped out of bed, which made me feel even more dizzy, as if everything was spinning. I sat on the bed to steady myself before standing up again. What came into my head last night that I decided to drink? Annoying Salvatore, why did he have to show up in my workplace with that old spoiled woman? But it's just beer. Is this really its effect on everyone?I went straight to the bathroom and quickly took a shower. While doing that, I couldn't help but wonder what happened last night. I shook my head when I couldn't remember anything. I don't think I did something that is out of the ordinary. I mean, even if I didn't have my parents growing up and my aunt and uncle were both evil and didn't care about me, I still know wha

    AngelI couldn't attend my online class because Salvatore seemed overly eager and wouldn't leave me alone. I'm now quietly eating with him along with the man who entered our bedroom. I glance at them from time to time because neither of them is saying anything. But I notice that the man often smiles, especially when he looks at me."Stop staring at her, Sandicho." I flinched when Salvatore suddenly spoke."Why? What's wrong? I just want to know what you see in her that makes you let her stay in the same room as you." My face turned red at what he said, and I paused while chewing my food."Just keep eating and ignore that guy." It sounded like an order to me, so I nodded. The man, who I now knew was named Sandicho, just laughed."Does Dad know about her?" the man asked."He has nothing to do with this, so, shut your mouth," Salvatore answered firmly, and Sandicho shrugged.We finished lunch without Sandicho speaking again, but the whole time, it felt awkward because we were all so quiet

    Angel"Are you really okay with the fact that he's younger than me?" Salvatore asked again. We were already lying in bed after he teased me with kisses and touches but didn't continue. I was so aroused, and I'm sure he had so much self-control that he managed to stop himself."It still feels like there's a big age gap between us, so it doesn't seem that different from you," I replied. "Really?" he asked seriously, and I smiled."Ouch!" I blurted, holding my forehead after he flicked it."It's like you're saying I'm already old." I glanced at him, wondering if he was thinking about or feeling self-conscious about our age difference."Even though there's a big age gap, you still don't look forty.""What?" he said in shock, making me smile and nod again. But then he flicked me on the forehead once more. "I won't ever look forty because I'm not even forty yet!""So, how old are you, really?" I asked, rubbing my forehead. His flicks hurt. Annoying fingers—he should only use them to make m

    Salvatore“You really punched me, asshole!” Sandicho yelled angrily, but I ignored him. He deserved much worse for what he said the other night. My jaw clenched in anger, still furious at how he told Angel I was old and that he was a better match for her.Sandicho is my younger half-brother on my father’s side, and I only found out about him when I got imprisoned. One of their men bailed me out from Italy several years ago. “Why aren’t you answering?”“Shut up, Sandicho. Be thankful that's all you got because I want to do worse if you keep talking.”“So, that girl is really important to you, huh?” he asked. Still, I kept reading the report from the person managing my finances in the businesses I had shared. “Brother!” he shouted in frustration.“Why are you still here? Shouldn’t you be back to your father by now?” I asked, equally annoyed.“I’m not leaving until I figure out who this Angel is to you.”“Why do you want to know?” I raised an eyebrow.“She’s pretty and sexy.”“Watch your

    AngelI couldn't believe what Salvatore did to his brother. It was just one punch, but I knew it was strong and painful because the guy fell straight to the ground.Then, Salvatore pulled me upstairs to our room, and of course, I couldn't do anything about it. Why did Sandicho say that? I was shocked because even my private part, which had nothing to do with the issue, got dragged into it. Because of that incident, I feel like Salvatore lost interest in me because he went straight to sleep after we cleaned ourselves up."Hey!" I jumped in surprise. "What are you thinking about? You seem out of it," asked Cecil. I was at work, waiting for my customer's order."Huh? Nothing." I smiled at her; although I was tempted to share my thoughts, I couldn't risk exposing my relationship to Salvatore or exposing him either."Come on, don't hide it from me. Just a little advice, okay?" she said, and I nodded even though she had no idea what was on my mind. "Money can be earned. If you can't, then yo

    SalvatoreWhen I got home from talking with De Silva, it was late at night. I wanted to start a business I could truly call my own. All the businesses I was involved in weren't really mine, and I didn't have enough power to decide. I was just one of the shareholders, and even though I wanted to have a controlling share, the others wouldn't allow it because they hadn't seen me yet.I am Salvatore Ravalli, known underground as Tore. My friends De Silva, Sandejas, and Roman are like me, too. Sandejas and I are considered the heartless and ruthless among the four of us, especially towards women. At the same time, the other two are notorious womanizers.I'm not saying I'm not a womanizer. Still, Sandejas and I are different from them because, for us, women are only good in bed. De Silva and Roman, however, show some care and concern, even though they don't take the women around them seriously.When I entered the room, Angel was there, fast asleep. The light was dim, and I didn't want to tur

    AngelWhen I opened my eyes, I first checked the bed beside me. I sighed in relief when I saw that Salvatore was no longer there. I got up and headed straight to the bathroom to take a shower.I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror as I passed by, and I couldn't help but feel angry as I remembered what happened last night. I could still feel the pain on my cheek, as well as on my scalp and back.That spoiled old woman better watch out. Once I get rich, I'll make sure I'm even more beautiful and sexy than her, just to make her die of envy and insecurity.I hurried to eat breakfast and ensure I looked good before going downstairs. But when I arrived in the dining hall, Salvatore wasn't there. I felt a bit sad, but it was fine. He might start asking about my job, which would be hard to explain.Naty served me breakfast with a smile. We'd improved our relationship, and I could talk to her now. "How was work?"I didn't want to answer because it wasn't great, but I didn't want her to wor

    Salvatore"You know the woman?" Sandejas asked, and I nodded. He looked at me deeply as if he couldn't believe it. All the time we'd been friends, I never once asked him anything about anyone, especially a woman."You're telling me you own that restaurant?" I asked, and he nodded too.."Though I don't spread that around, only a few people know. The previous owner left the country for good, even though their restaurant was doing well, so I bought it.""Are you sure the owner left the country for good?" I asked, full of doubt, making him laugh. And he laughed loudly."And what do you think, I killed them? You can investigate if you want," he said, shaking his head. He wasn't offended or angry at the question-it seemed like it didn't matter to him. "But I do want to investigate that woman.""Stop it, Sandejas," I said, and he burst out laughing again."So, is she different from your other women?""I never had any women.""I mean, the women who have passed through your hands?" I didn't res

That confirmed it was really her."How did you get in here?" I asked, stepping closer as she approached me, too."I opened the door.""And you think I wouldn’t know that?""Then why are you asking if you already know?""I'm asking you, my love. Can’t you just give me a proper answer for once?" She's always like this. Every time I try to have a serious conversation with her, she just jokes around."You're drunk. Why would I bother talking to you properly?""I'm not drunk! I just had a few drinks.""And you had to argue about it.""You still haven’t answered me. What are you doing here?""Looking for Angelo." She was staring straight at me while I was getting annoyed. Why was she looking for that kid?"Why?" I asked, trying to hide my irritation."He left his keys at my place.""He went to your house?"

    MauroI’m nervous about my plan. My talk with Angelo wasn’t going to take a whole week, but I told Salvatore just in case something unexpected happened.I love Nadia, and I want to be with her. Damn, I’m old, yet I’m still single because I kept waiting for that stubborn woman.Honestly, it’s fine because I allowed Nadia to do what she wanted. She could work, and I could see the happiness on her face when she finally gave her parents a good life.Now that Angel is back, I’ve decided to take things seriously with that restless woman. Well, after talking to Angelo, I hope it will go well. Salvatore is lucky; he already has twins, and I’m just about to start my own family.“What are we even going to talk about?” Angelo asked. I looked at him closely and couldn’t help but shake my head and smile.We were on the balcony of the condo we lived in. Yes, we lived together. Ever since Angel left, I took care of him. Better me than him staying with Nadia; that would’ve given him an advantage over

    AngelEven though my body was sore, I still woke up early the next day. I was already used to this routine, so it didn’t really matter how tired or sleep-deprived I was.I looked beside me and saw Salvatore still fast asleep. I couldn’t help but smile, remembering how he claimed me last night while whispering that he could still keep up with me.I was momentarily confused when I realized we had ended up with our heads at the foot of the bed. I glanced at Salvatore again and gently stroked his cheek.I looked at him until I noticed something on my finger. I brought my hand closer and stared at it."Do you still remember?" I turned to look at Salvatore, who was now awake. He reached for my hand, brought it to his lips, and kissed it."When did you—""I never took that off. It was always attached to my necklace." So that was what I noticed last night."I'm sorry, I took it off.""It’s my fault. But honestly, I was hoping you’d leave with it.""Good thing I didn’t, or I might have sold it.

    Mature ContentSalvatoreI felt like I was going crazy when I saw her nightdress. It barely covered anything, especially since it was so thin, and she wasn’t even wearing underwear. I was so damn close to picking her up and taking her to bed to claim her over and over, but she pushed me out of the room.I stayed in the living room and tried to sleep but couldn’t. After a few more minutes, I gave up and went back to the bedroom. I could clearly see her figure lying on the bed, peacefully sleeping.How could she fall asleep so quickly, as if what she said earlier didn’t affect her at all? Fuck. She told me we should have another set of twins. I’m such an idiot, as always!I took off my shirt before lying down beside her, positioning myself behind her. Hesitantly, I pressed a light kiss on her exposed shoulder, but she didn’t move.“Baby…” I called softly, continuing to plant gentle kisses from her shoulder up to her cheek. I stroked her hair carefully, like always when I put her to sleep

    Angel"Mommy, are you sure you're still going to wait for Papa?" Savanna asked, and I nodded. Their classes had just ended, but Salvatore still hadn't arrived."He had a lot to do earlier before I came home, so I went ahead.""But you're still not eating," Savinna answered this time."Your Papa hasn't eaten yet either, so I'll wait for him." The two of them stayed quiet, just looking at me. "You know what? Why don't you both go to your rooms now and sleep?""Okay," they said in unison before kissing my cheek and heading to their rooms. I stayed in the living room, sitting on the sofa, waiting a little longer. I glanced at my phone, itching to call him, but I stopped myself.I waited for another hour before finally getting up to put away the laptop the twins had been using. I lost my appetite since it was already so late. I was on my way to the door to lock it when it suddenly opened, and Salvatore walked in, stopping when he saw me."You’re waiting," he said after locking the door behi

    SalvatoreFor the past three weeks, I’ve felt like I’m in heaven because my relationship with Angel has progressed. I brought some clothes to my wife and child’s condo. I wanted them to live with me but knew I had to take things slow. I didn’t want Angel to think I was being too pushy.Angel and I go to work together every day, and at night, we sleep beside each other, but that’s as far as it goes. Angelo and Nadia visit them on weekends, and we all spend time together.I never thought I had this much self-control, resisting the urge to claim the woman I love. Maybe it's also because I fear she’ll get mad if I push myself on her.“You look busy.” I lifted my head when I heard Mauro’s voice. “You didn’t even hear me knock.”I stretched my back and leaned on my chair. “Not really. I just want to finish my work before going home.”“Because of Angel?” he asked as he walked closer and sat in front of my desk.“Of course. That way, we can go home together.” Sometimes, she leaves first when I

    Salvatore“Papa, is it ready?” Savinna asked. I was setting up their laptops for their online class. I really wanted to transfer them to a school here in the Philippines because their class schedule was so off. Morning in Michigan meant nighttime here.“All set, sweetheart. Go ahead and take your spot, you too, Savanna.” The twins happily followed while I sat beside my baby, busy with her tablet on the sofa. I gently lifted her back a little and stretched my arm around her, pulling her close. She didn’t resist and just kept doing what she was doing.I kept switching my gaze between the twins and Angel, who was now leaning on me. I caught the twins smiling at us as if they were happy with what they saw. I signaled them to focus on their laptop, and they quickly did.I should’ve been bored since I wasn’t doing anything, but watching my family like this made me feel content.I could hear the twins answering their teacher, and it made me proud to know they were smart. Well, not to brag, bu

    Angel"Look closely at the fabric and design. This is for casual wear, so it has to be comfortable," I explained to one of the designers at SA Clothing. Honestly, they were all talented, so I couldn't understand why the company was facing such a huge financial crisis."Yes, Ma'am," Jek responded. We were in the meeting room discussing the company's new designs."I want all the designs finalized for the third-quarter catalog.""Copy, Ma'am," the four designers, including my assistant, responded in unison before standing up. Just as they were leaving, the door opened, making all of us turn to look."Good morning, baby," Salvatore greeted, making my eyes widen. The people who heard him grinned, which only made me glare at him in annoyance."I told you not to call me that, especially in front of other people," I snapped once everyone had left, leaving just the two of us."And why not?" he asked as if he had no idea what I meant."Look, we're at work, and as much as possible, I just want to

    Salvatore“Papa, why did you leave Mom?” Savinna asked. I could see she really took after Angel. I looked at Savanna, sitting beside me, just staring, waiting for my answer.“Because I’m an idiot,” I replied after a while. That's the only possible answer I could give them.“We already know that,” Savanna replied without hesitation. She’s exactly like me. “What Sav wants to know is the real reason. Like, do you have another woman? Do we have another sibling to another woman?”“Of course not! I only love your mother!” I answered quickly, and I saw Savanna’s expression change. She seemed to like my response.“Then you really are an idiot.”“Savanna, watch your language.” I smiled when I heard Angel’s voice. After cleaning the kitchen, I joined them in the living room. If this is what it feels like to have them all in one place, I’d trade everything I have just to keep moments like this forever.“Sorry, Mom.” I love how the twins always apologize to their mother whenever Angel corrects the
