Angel

He stayed silent as I pounded my fists against his chest, even though he didn’t seem to mind. Maybe because I wasn’t really trying to hurt him. In the end, I gave up and stopped, sitting astride him with my tears flowing like a child’s. Eventually, my sobs turned into soft sniffles.

I felt his arms wrap around me, so I buried my face in his neck and shoulder curve. He held me close, gently rubbing my back while kissing my temple softly. It calmed me down, and soon, my sobs faded away completely.

"Are you feeling better now, baby?" he asked, but I didn’t respond. He remained quiet, waiting for a moment longer.

"Victoria was the first woman in my life, and I was the same for her. We were young when we met, so no matter what I do now, I can’t change that. Does it bother you so much?" he asked again. I shook my head. "Then what’s wrong? Why are you upset with me?"

I stayed silent because I couldn’t bring myself to say it. How could I? Should I tell him I was mad because he finished i

    Mature ContentAngelMy hands glided over his chest, tracing every inch until they reached the hem of his shirt. Slowly, I lifted it up. His hands, which had been gently stroking my thighs, moved upward, making it easier for me to remove his shirt entirely. His body was stunning, even though I typically didn’t like men with tattoos—I found them dirty, almost distasteful. But Salvatore was different. His entire body was inked, yet I couldn’t resist him. Maybe I was losing my mind over this man.I let my finger roam over his chest, playing lightly as I did. Salvatore simply watched me, his eyes locked with mine. The desire in his gaze mirrored the longing I felt deep inside. This man is way older than me, and I never thought I would like someone like him. But here I am, tracing every inch of him.Leaning forward, I pressed my lips to his neck, kissing and licking the skin there, making sure to leave a mark. Let him figure out how to hide it if he’s embarrassed to be seen with one. I am l

    David"Sir, what was that? Is that all?" I asked my boss after he told me to drop the case of Manzano."When did you start caring about that criminal, Calderon? Weren't you itching to catch that bastard? And now that he's out of the picture, you still won't let it go!" he shouted at me."Sir, it's not that I have any sympathy for that bastard. More than anyone, I wanted to catch him. Catch him, Sir, not see him dead. I want him to pay for his crimes!" I replied angrily. He's my superior, but I can't control my frustration in times like this. And he knew how I was whenever my case came to a dead end."God already made a way to take him off this earth and punish him, yet here you are, still yapping." How could he not understand my anger? Am I the only one thinking about giving justice to every victim?"How can I solve the case of our former mayor when he's my last lead? And don't you find it strange that he was killed just when he was about to answer all our questions?" I asked, making h

    Angel“How was work?” Salvatore asked as soon as I got into his car, already waiting for me at my usual pickup spot after my shift. He had just returned from Manila and went straight to me.“It was okay,” I replied with a smile, leaning in to kiss him quickly. But he didn’t seem satisfied with that—he pulled me closer and kissed me more deeply.“I’m not a kid for you to give me that kind of kiss, you understand?” he said, wiping the side of my lips, probably cleaning off some of our combined saliva. I just nodded with a grin, enjoying the moment. I gave him a light kiss because I thought he might not feel comfortable, considering we were in the car.“Aren’t you going to ask me about the old spoiled woman?”“Why would I? And is she that spoiled?” he asked, making me raise my eyebrows.“You don’t want me to call her spoiled?”“I’m just asking, baby,” he said, reaching for my hand resting on my lap while his other hand wrapped around me, pulling me closer. I didn’t answer, simply savoring

    SalvatoreAngel remained silent as she entered the car, and I did the same. How could I not, after seeing her having a meal with that police officer? They happily talked, and I saw her comfortable around him. I couldn't help but feel jealous. I haven't even had the chance to date her yet, and here he was, beating me to it?I took a deep breath as we arrived at the mansion. She was quiet, even as I opened the car door and waited for her. "Hey, is something wrong?" I asked, leaning slightly to check on her."Huh?" She responded absentmindedly, finally noticing that we had already arrived home. She slowly exited the car and walked towards the mansion while I watched her from behind.She walked straight into our room, and I followed closely. But just as she was about to head into the walk-in closet, I stopped her. "Baby, what's wrong?" I asked, gently turning her to face me."Huh? Why?" she replied, still looking lost."You seem out of it. Did something happen at work?" I kept my tone casu

    AngelIt was never clear to me if Salvatore was truly responsible for the death of the man who held me hostage. He never really gave me a direct answer when I asked him. But despite that, I still held on to the hope that, if ever, he wouldn't resort to that kind of revenge again, especially not for my sake.After that night, I noticed that Salvatore changed. It became so much easier to talk to him, and he was much sweeter towards me, not just in bed, but in everything. During our meals, he was always there in every little move I made, making sure I was okay. He tried to help me even with my studies, though I always refused because I could manage. I wasn't trying to boast, but I did have the brains for it; it's just that my aunt never sent me to school.Salvatore didn't let me quit my job either, and he promised to do his best not to be jealous. I didn't mind him being jealous on that part—it was actually amusing. He looked so handsome whenever he got upset, especially when he found out

    Angel“Next time, when you’re off, let’s eat out.” I glanced at Salvatore. Was he serious? “Why are you looking at me like that? Don’t you want to?”“Huh? No, of course I want to! I’d love that,” I quickly replied. I didn’t want to play hard to get because the truth is, I do want it. I like the idea of people seeing us together so they’ll think we’re in a relationship. That way, no other woman would dare to approach him when we’re not together.“Or would you prefer we go out of town when you take a leave? Where do you want to go?” I couldn’t answer. Was he inviting me?“Anywhere you want. I haven’t been to many places, so everything would be new, and I’m sure I’d enjoy it.” I wanted to add that as long as I’m with him, I don’t mind where we go, even if it’s just somewhere close by.We continued eating, and I felt like I was floating. “After this, we’ll head straight home.”I looked at him in surprise because I still had work. As much as I wanted to go home with him, I knew I couldn’t;

    Salvatore"Shut the fuck up!" I yelled at Victoria. I didn't want to hear anything from her about the age gap between Angel and me. I knew it well, and I fully understood it. Even though I feared the possibility she was suggesting, I always tried to calm myself down."Why? Are you afraid to accept the truth that she might find someone else? Someone who is younger, richer? It's not impossible, Salvatore. And with that girl's looks, I'm sure it will happen.""Stop it, Victoria," I warned her again, but she didn't listen and continued."Despite her uniform, it's obvious how beautiful her body is, and I know you're crazy about it. Many men will desire her, especially if you're no longer around. And I'm certain she'll jump at the first man who gives her special attention. Let's say—PO3 Calderon."My body trembled, and my fists clenched tightly as I held back from hitting the woman in front of me. "Salvatore," Angel said, her hand gently smoothing over my knuckles."Stay out of this, Angel."

    Victoria"I won't allow it! There's no way I will let another woman take up the time of the man I love!" I screamed as I stormed into my room at my father's mansion, throwing my bag to the floor, tears streaming down my face.I saw how Salvatore looked at that waitress—so full of love. Those eyes that used to be only for me. I miss that. I miss having someone love me. Really love me. I collapsed to the floor, sobbing uncontrollably.I regret everything. I regret choosing to follow my father instead of the man I love. I regret choosing the lavish life my father and Narciso's family could offer over a simple, humble life with Salvatore.If I could turn back time, I would never choose this life—a life of emptiness, misery, rage, and no direction. I have a husband but no family. I became a puppet to their desires, so I chose to destroy myself, thinking they had no idea. But in reality, they watched silently as everything fell apart around me.I stood up from the floor, lay down on my bed,

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
