Mauro

Shit. I didn’t expect Salvatore to be this sharp now. Angel really has that effect on him. I quickly left his office because I didn’t want to answer any of his questions—especially if they were about Nadia.

I still can’t figure out what came over me at that moment when I suddenly kissed that girl. Damn! She’s young. Like really young. She’s the same age as Angel, and I feel embarrassed that I’m having these strange feelings for her.

I don’t want to end up like Salvatore, who I know is struggling. I understand what he’s scared of, and I know it’s valid. He badly wanted to shout what they had to the world—just like the time when he thought Arturo approved of his relationship with Victoria.

He was so happy back then. He pushed himself to finish school just to make Victoria proud. Her high social status motivated him, especially since her father was highly respected in our town.

What neither of us expected was that it was all a lie. From the start, I didn’t approve of Victoria for h

    MauroWhen I got to the living room, I saw Nadia sitting there with her eyes closed. I scratched my head, wondering whether I should wake her. I stared at her for a bit, unable to swallow hard because she looked so beautiful. Damn, maybe that "bucket line of suitors" thing is real after all.I let my eyes linger on her beauty, but I instantly regretted it when she opened her eyes and caught me."What are you staring at?" she asked, fixing herself."What else? Your drool!" Knowing she would respond to my teasing, I quickly turned my back to hide the grin spreading across my face. I couldn't help it—she was just so gorgeous."What drool? You're making that up!" she yelled, following behind me as we headed through the back since it was a quicker route to Angelo."Your place is huge," she said once we stepped outside. I glanced back at her and saw her head turning all around, taking it in."Careful, you might twist your neck," I warned. "And by the way, this isn't even mine. I'm just borr

    Mature ContentAngel I couldn't stop smiling after my birthday celebration. It was the first time I celebrated since my parents passed away. I had practically forgotten the day because it always felt like any other day for me. Only Nadia and Angelo would remember and greet me back then, but I just treated it like a normal day.But this time, it felt different. It was a simple gathering with just us, but it was so special to me because of the effort they put in—especially Salvatore. It made me fall for him even more. Whenever we're together, I always want us to sit close, especially when he's at home.It's been a few months since Salvatore and I started living together, and I can say I'm really comfortable with him now. At first, I was scared because he seemed intimidating, especially during our first meeting. But now, I'm used to his moods and feel at ease around him.I learned he's possessive and jealous and told me that himself. I don't mind avoiding other guys because I feel the sa

    AngelHeaven, I'm in heaven! Geez... I never thought I'd feel this kind of happiness. Everything is clear now, and I'm so happy. Salvatore loves me, and I love him too. I also know that he and Victoria were done for a long time, so whatever that spoiled woman does won't affect me anymore. I'll fight for our relationship no matter what. Can you believe it? It's been seventeen days already!I'll count every day we're together because I'm excited. Of course, he's my first boyfriend, and I'm his second girlfriend. It's fine that Victoria was first because I'll ensure I would be his last and the only woman he desires.It's Saturday, and since I don't have online classes, I'm hanging out with Nadia. Like before, one of Salvatore's men dropped me off."You're really happy, girl!" Nadia teased, grinning at me."Is that bad?" I shot back, knowing my smile was practically splitting my face in half."Why? Is your marriage confirmed already?" she joked. I froze, realizing I wasn't sure what happen

    AngelWe were still eating when I got a message from Salvatore.Salvatore: Where are you?Angel: At a fast-food place in the mall, eating.Salvatore: Who are you with?I looked around and wondered if someone was following us. He knew I was with Nadia, but he seemed sure there was someone else with us and had a hunch he already knew it was David."Is something wrong, Angel?" David asked, also looking around."Nothing, I just realized how crowded it is today.""Yeah, it really is," he agreed before I went back to looking at my phone.Salvatore: Why are you not answering?Angel: I'm sorry. I was talking to someone. David's here, too, eating. But it was just by accident that we ran into each other.I had to explain quickly, just in case he thought of something else. He could get so jealous.Salvatore: What is he doing there? What time are you going home?Angel: Nadia still wants to hang out. Do you want me to go home now?He took a while to reply as if he was thinking hard about what to sa

    Mature ContentNadia“David’s going to give us a ride,” I whined as Mauro and I walked to the car.“David, David,” he mocked, clearly annoyed. “Are you two close now? It’s Sir David to you, and you better show respect. He’s older than you.”“Please, I just called you Mauro, and you look much older than David anyway,” I shot back. He suddenly stopped walking, which made me stop and look at him.“Don’t tell me you don’t have the keys?”“Go home on your own,” he said, storming off toward the car, leaving me stunned. What just happened?“Go home alone? Fine, I’ll go home alone!” I muttered to myself as I turned away. Did he think I couldn’t take care of myself?The problem with older guys is they’re so moody. They’re hard to read and never just say what’s bothering them. I rubbed my temple as a wave of dizziness hit me.I wasn’t drunk, but I could handle myself. My friends and I used to drink like champs after doing our group projects. I made it to the street corner and stood there waiting

    AngelAfter I ensured that Mauro would take Nadia home, Salvatore and I left. He was being overly jealous again. He wouldn’t talk to me, but his arm stayed wrapped around my waist from the moment we left the bar until we got into our room.“You really won’t talk to me?” I asked.“Why don’t you go talk to that cop instead?”“Oh, come on. You’re so jealous! I only looked at him because it felt rude to dismiss him after he went out of his way to watch over Nadia and me at the bar.”“Why did you even have to hang out with him?”“Nadia invited him, and he agreed. I didn’t want to tell her in front of everyone that you wouldn’t like it because I didn’t want them thinking you’re too possessive.”“I am possessive about everything that’s mine, baby,” he said as he ran his hand along my cheek.“I know that. That’s why I told you he was with us, so you wouldn’t get any weird ideas.” He took a deep breath, smiled, and then picked me up, tossing me onto the bed.“You’re forgiven, but that doesn’t m

    AngelI couldn't sit still because of the words Victoria left me with. I wanted to run after her and talk, but the way she smirked made it clear she wouldn't explain further.Does she have a lead on my parents' death? Did she have to dig that up to convince me to leave Salvatore? Sure, she and her family have connections, but that doesn't mean the information she gets is always accurate, right?I shook my head, trying to stop overthinking it. I was in my online class, and we talked last night, so I should've already pushed those thoughts out of my mind. I needed to focus on studying.I was thankful I managed to finish my class without thinking about Victoria. I had to take my studies seriously if I wanted to achieve my dreams. Just because Salvatore is around and willing to provide for me and Angelo doesn't mean I should depend on him entirely.After packing up my things, I set them on my study table just as the door to my room opened. I smiled and quickly walked over to greet Salvator

    AngelIt was Friday, and as Salvatore wanted, I got myself ready because we were going out. He said he'd introduce me to his friends, so I was super excited. It felt like our closeness had leveled up."Don't wear anything short, okay? I don't want anyone else seeing your legs," Salvatore said, making me laugh. He's so possessive when it comes to my body. He's always upfront about how scared he is of losing me, especially these past few days. He keeps reminding me not to leave him no matter what."I know," I said with a smile, cupping his face and teasing him. He smiled back before leaning down so our lips met, and we shared a heated kiss. We probably would've ended up on the bed if we weren't about to leave."Don't mind them if you feel like they're teasing you. That's just how they are, okay?" Salvatore said. We were already in the car, but he couldn't sit still. Honestly, I should've been nervous since I know what kind of people his friends are. But seeing how he was acting, it seeme

    Angel“Mommy, is this okay?” Savinna asked. It was Saturday, and we were in the kitchen, preparing lunch for Mauro, Nadia, and Angelo’s visit.Last week, Salvatore invited me and the kids to go out. The twins had a great time since I hadn’t really taken them anywhere like that before. Honestly, I wasn’t familiar with Manila and could only navigate around Angeles and Pampanga, which has probably changed a lot by now.“Get up and go to the living room, sweetheart. Let Mommy and me handle things here,” Salvatore said with a smile as he picked up our daughter from her chair and placed her on the floor. “Go and play with Savanna.”“But she doesn’t want to,” Savinna complained. Salvatore looked at me for help, but I wasn’t going to save him this time. I was done dealing with the twins' endless arguments and discussions about everything. It was his turn.“Besides, I want to help.”“Sweetheart, you’ll be a bigger help if you stay in the living room. Why don’t you turn on the TV and check if t

    Mature ContentMauro"Nadia!" I blurted out, slapping both of my cheeks just to make sure I wasn't imagining her."What are you doing, idiot?" she asked, and I chuckled. 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?" I asked to confir

    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
