Semua Bab One Lust Dance: Bab 1 - Bab 10

The Masquerade Festival is a famous tradition in the province of San Lorenzo celebrated every month of October. Sometimes, they held a Masquerade ball to honor a member of a wealthy family or just for a special event. The said event removes the boundaries of social status. They have the freedom to talk and mingle without being judged or mocked. There is no rich nor poor, everyone is equal. There are strict rules to follow if one plans to attend the ball. Costumes have to make the wearer unidentifiable and wearing a mask is mandatory to hide their identity. No one is allowed to unmask anyone or to say the name of the person even if you recognize them. It is like a game of pretending to be someone or whomever you want to be in one night. According to tradition, the mask is said to drive away evil spirits or bad luck and brings good fortune to the one who hosts the party. Other theories said that with their identity hidden, there is a greater chance to find their soulmates or destined p

San Lorenzo University is one of the most prestigious universities in the country. Most of the students who went there belonged to rich and famous families. There are only a few students whose families belonged to the middle class because the school fees are way too expensive compared to other universities. Getting a scholarship is not easy and there is only one student who is intelligent enough to get that privilege. The University is famous for its business management courses. Students are expected to take over their family business after they graduated. The university serves as their training ground and it is the best way to get connections at an early stage. Next day on Campus... "Edward, mah man, you're just in time!" Joaquin is standing in the corridor waiting for Edward. "Hey, man, what's up?" he casually replied and raises his hand for a high five. They both have this habit of weird nerdy hand gestures every time they meet. It is a sign of their close bond and friendship.

The following day back on Campus...Edward arrives at the university with a heavy heart and a disoriented mind. He is lack energy and walks like he is dragging his feet from the floor just to make it through the school. The disappointment is shown on his face when he saw Joaquin waiting for him at the school building entrance."The man of the hour, mah friend Edward! How are you?"Joaquin asks excitedly. "You're late and missed the first half of the class. Someone got all the action last night." He winked at him.Joaquin has no clue about what happens on Edward's date with Regina. He is eager and anxious to get the details out of him. Joaquin drags his friend away from the crowd, and they walk toward the back of the school to have some privacy."She's not the one," Edward bluntly said with a sad voice looking disappointed."Huh? What happen?" Joaquin worriedly asked and started to look concerned.Edward took a deep breath and releases an audible sigh before he narrates what happened la

The following day back on Campus... It was a normal lazy afternoon. A peaceful and quiet day to relax and rest after the tiring first half of morning class. The serenity of the campus was interrupted when Edward rushes to the school building and furiously looks for Joaquin. Everyone who crosses paths with him moves away or heads in the other direction and gives way as he walks through the hallway. They can feel his anger with every footstep that echoed sharply around the place like the booming heartbeat of a condemned prisoner. His piercing eyes were scanning every corner of the hallway until he finally sees his target. "I am so going to kill you!" Edward rushes towards Joaquin. He grabs Joaquin's collar and pulls him closer to him. Edward clenched his fist on Joaquin's shirt and glared at him with gritted teeth. "Hey, hey, calm down. What's going on?" Joaquin is looking at him with a feeling of confusion. He has no clue about Edward's rage. "First of all, It's not her!" Edwar

It was a bright and sunny Friday. The sun shone brilliantly with white and fluffy cotton candy clouds drifting across the clear blue sky. It was the perfect time to appreciate the wonderful weather, but everybody was busy shopping at the mall. Yes, they are all busy doing last-minute shopping and preparing for the upcoming Masquerade party that will be held on Saturday in the residence of Guadalupe Purification Banal. Some skip work and classes just to prepare for the said event. The masquerade ball is the most prestigious event in San Lorenzo and it was only held in October by the wealthiest families. There is no need for an invitation to attend. Everyone is invited regardless of their social status, and it is the best opportunity to meet people in the higher class.
