Novels by Spencer

Madilim ang paligid. Ang kaninang mahinang paghampas ng ulan sa bintana ay tuluyang naglaho. Bagkos na sa isang malalim na tulog dinala ako ng aking kamalayan kung saan kami muling nagtagpo ni Selio. Isang malakas na puwersa ang sumapo sa likod ng aking ulo. Ramdam ko ang pananalaytay ng init na nagmumula sa kanyang palad patungo sa aking balat. Sa isang kisapmata, mainit, mapang-angkin at mapusok na halik ang iginawad niya sa aking mga labi. My mind froze. Tanging ang sensasyon na ibinibigay lamang ng lalaki ang tanging laman ng aking isip. "Open up." Namamaos na bulong niya sa pagitan ng aming mga labi. Ramdam ko ang paglapat ng aking likod sa isang matigas bagay. Isang puno. The rough surface pressed against my back. Nakangising kinapa ko ang puno bago ibinaling ang atensyon sa kanya, "Napakapusok mo nama-" Ipinaling ko ang aking ulo at walang pagdadalwang isip na sinipsip ang kanyang manamis-namis na labi. Isang mainit at mamasa-masang sensansyon ang walang pak

Napasandal ako sa pinto at wala sa loob na inamoy ko ang damit. Napakabango nito, kapareho ng amoy ng tshirt na suot ko. It smells just like him, subtle, not over powering but soothing. "Tinalo pa yung cologne ko sa sarap singhotin. Ano kayang sabon ang ginamit niya?" Ini-lock ko ang pinto bago magpalit ng damit. Napatampal ako ng noo ng maalalang wala nga pala akong isusuot na bra dahil tanging nipple tape lang ang suot ko kagabi, siguradong nasa dagat na iyon. Napatitig ako sa aking dibdib na tanging manipis lamang na tela ang nakatakip at napabuntong hininga. "At least may panty na ako." Isinuot kong muli ang t-shirt niya para pamatong sa manipis kong damit. Napasulyap ako sa bintana ng silid at naupo sa kama. Unti-unting namumuo ang makapal na ulap sa langit. Muling sumagi sa isip ko ang sinabi ni Selio at hindi ko mapigilang mapabuntong hininga. "Sana lumipas lamang ang bagyo." Ngayon pa lang ay parang nagsisisi na ko na hindi ko inalam muna ang lagay ng panahon bago na

Lumilipad ang diwang, agad akong binuksan ang gripo ng tubig, isinalod ang aking mga palad at ibinuhos ang malamig na likido sa namumula kong mukha. Nalipat ang atensyon ko sa aking suot ng maalalang nahulog nga pala ako sa tubig. Halos umabot ang damit sa aking tuhod sa laki at haba nito. "Siya ba ang nagpalit ng damit ko?" Kinapa ko ang aking pangbaba ngunit wala akong makapa. Bilang adult, naintindihan ko naman ang konsiderasyon niya, basa nga naman iyon pero... kaya pala ramdam ko ang preskong hangin sa ibabang parte ng katawan ko. Pilit kong binura ang hindi kaaya-ayang imahe na pumasok sa kokote ko ng pagka-agaaga. Marahil ay hindi pa lubos na gising ang aking utak o kaya ay hindi pa naalis ang alak sa sistema ko kaya kung ano-anong senaryo na lamang ang lumalabas dito. Animo'y nagpoprotesta ang mga alaga ko sa tiyan sa biglang pagtunog nito ng malakas. "Gutom lang siguro ito." Mabilis na inayos ko ang sarili habang pilit na ipinag sa walang bahala ang nangyari kan

"Achoo!"Hindi ko maiwasang bumahing ng ilang beses dahil sa labis na pangangati ng aking ilong.Bughaw na namimilog na mga mata ang tumambad sa aking pagdilat. Napabalikwas ako ng bangon at napatili dahil sa gulat."Inaaay!"Ni hindi ko namalayang nahulog na pala ako sa kama kung hindi sumakit ang aking pang-upo.The sudden actions made my head dizzy. Muntik pa akong muntog sa maliit na mesang nasa gilid ng kamay."Anong nangyari? Ayos ka lang ba?"Agad kong itinuro ang kulay itim na pusa na may bughaw na mga mata. Prenteng-prente itong nakaupo sa kama habang dinidilaan ang kanyang balahibo."May pusa. Pwede bang paki-alis ng pusa?" Paos na pakiusap ko sa bagong dating ng hindi inaalis ang titig sa pusa."Ah, andito ka lang pala, kanina pa kita hinahanap. Luffy, halika rito."Nang marinig ng pusa ang sinabi ng lalaki ay kusa itong tumalon pababa sa kama at dahan-dahang naglakad palayo sa akin.Sinundan ko ito ng tingin hanggang sa mapako ang mga mata ko sa isang pamilyar na lalaki.Ma

Bakit ako iiyak?Bakit pa ako iiyak?I should have known better.Dapat pala ay pinag-isipan ko muna ng isang daang beses kung magpapatali ako sa taong yun. Kung sana hindi ako nagpadalos-dalos at nagpadala sa aking emosyon, mas marami sana akong pagpipilian ngayon.Dalawang gabi na ang lumipas ngunit hindi ko pa rin mawaglit sa isip ang naging sagot ni Lejandro sa katanungan ko.'Patawarin mo ako, mahal. Nagawa ko lamang iyon dahil sa labis na pagkasabik ko saiyo gawa ng hindi mo pagpapaunlak sa aking pag-iinit. Sa katunayan, ikaw lamang ang nasa isip at puso ko kahit pa iba ang kasiping ko. Natukso lamang ako dahil sa pamimikot ng babaeng iyon. Hindi ko sinasadya.'Ni hindi man lamang niya itinanggi bagkos ay nakuha pa niyang isisi sa akin ang pagiging hayok niya sa laman at pangangaliwa.'Alam mo naman na kahit noon pa man ay maraming mga seksing babae ang ipinipilit ang sarili sa akin, ngunit ikaw ang pinakasalan ko. Patawarin mo lamang ako, misis ko, hindi na ko ulit magpapatukso s

"Sa may Orion Hotel lang po, Tay.""Dito na lang po, eto po bayad. Salamat."Ng tumigil ang tricycle agad kong inabot ang bayad sa pamasahe kay manong."Magbabakasyon ka ba iha o may pamilya ka sa isla?""Magbabakasyon lang po, Tay.""Ah ganun ba, aba'y welcome sa Catanduanes! Huwag mong kalimutang maglibot-libot tiyak sulit ang pagpunta mo dito.""Balak ko nga po talagang sulitin kasi ngayon pa lamang ako nakatungtong dito."Bumaba ako ng sasakyan at hinila ang maleta ko palabas. Sakto namang pag-ayos ko nito ay iniabot ng isa pang pasahero ni manong ang travelling bag ko na ipinatong sa bubong ng tricycle.Medyo may kabigatan ito kaya't ipinatong ko na lang sa maleta."Selio, paki-tulungan nga itong si Ma'am na buhatin ang mga gamit niya't mukhang mahihirapan siyang iakyat.""Ay naku huwag na po. Ayaw ko pong makaabala at tsaka nakakahiya naman po, kaya ko ho ito magaan lang naman."Dali-daling itinaas ko ang mga kamay upang tumutol."Okay lang."Halos mapaigtad ako sa gulat ng marin

Heavy cluster of clouds veiled the blue horizon into a vast ash-filled sea. The dark gloomy sky filled with promise for an afternoon shower. With a flash followed by a thunderous roar, a grain sized water falls into a leaf before sliding towards the hard solid ground. The light shower soon turned into a downpour, washing the filth-filled world anew. Glimpse of lightning peak through the clouds, as the cleansing underneath the sky finally began. Days and nights passed with Martin’s soul in a tenterhook. Countless sleepless nights finally came into fruition when a valuable intelligence reach their grasp. After about five days of an endless search, the wrath of justice finally descended. Helga together with a group of people were saved from the clutches of evils. The investigation came shortly and after gathering the evidences various individuals came into the light bringi

Bits of muffled incoherent conversation reach my ears giving me a start, however my eyelids feels very heavy. What is going on? The faraway voices gradually come closer until finally their words register on my brain. With sheer will power, a wisp of white entered my vision scaring the darkness into oblivion. “She’s responding.” I squinted my eyes and come across a pair of hazy eyes. Before me stood three people with masks plastered on their faces. They are clad similarly in white. “Subject 08293F is fighting surprisingly strong against Bliss. Take her out.” Bliss? Is it not that-? The bad premonition inside my mind gradually solidified in mortification. Chasing those dangerous thoughts away, I observed my situation with caution despite my befud

That night a midnight meal arrived carried by the same nurse, who has followed the doctor, she was named as Sandy.She appeared with the formal explanation of what had happens regarding the death of my baby that was abruptly cut short a while ago, due to my unstable mood.The force that slam accurately at my stomach hit my womb. The bleeding and the rescue came very late; it was hard to keep the baby anymore.‘It wasn’t your fault. It is all just a matter of fate; do not blame yourself too much. It will be bad for your health.’‘You will need to be strong for your babies. They are counting on you to survive.’It was as if a jolt has ran down my spine, when she broke the news about my surviving babies, but the sadness inside my heart did not diminish. Instead, the pain swelled more unbearable to the point that I feel like I was drown

I could not even utter a single word; my woozy mind cannot process everything that is being presented towards me.Against my will, my body slowly sank into the ocean. …They say sounds are louder underwater but I cannot hear anything but a piercing sharp sound echoing inside my brain, holding me captive.The pain spreading from my abdomen gradually turns numb, my limbs has gone weak from the cold and weariness, yet my will to survive keeps me awake.The dip only lasted for a second but my heart tremor and my instinct kicked in. Pushing my body back into the surface with all the meager strength that I could muster.I did not even have the capability to scream for help.I gasped for breath; nevertheless, out of the corner of my eyes, the man’s blurry figure swam away whilst holding Nadia by his arms

“I knew it! I told you to leave early and not to be seen by anyone!”I half yelled into the phone as I peered over Patricia.Despite knowing that putting or rather pushing the blame towards Martin is futile, I did it anyway. In hopes to calm my nerves still on the second thought, I do not actually know of what to think.After all, I am also to blame, however, I felt conflicted must I laugh, that they fainted at the sight of Martin, or cry for the depth of the matter?The two has been sleeping for quite a while now. They receive quite a scare.After their fainting episode, with the help of Martin, we are able to bring them into the hospital.I quickly chased the culprit away in fear of further aggravating the two if they suddenly woke up and still I could not help but call him in order to give him a piece of my mind.H

Sometimes I quite find myself starts to inexplicably wander about the complexity of the delicate thin line between self-preservation and boldness.The two ideas was rather far from each other yet for me it was only an inch apart.It sounds utterly nonsensical however…Stepping inside my room, I almost bashed my head against the wall as I felt a bit that something is wrong but I couldn’t put a finger on it.The muscle inside my chest is thrashing wildly not in pain but in a strange excitement. It leaves me breathless, in heat as a vague tint of yearning blooms within my core.Moving aside to let the man in, my heart nearly leapt into my throat as I inadvertently met his burning pair of eyes.“I-Uh,” my voice unintentionally trembled as I panic.Were too close for my comfort.

"Achoo!"I couldn't help but sneeze a few times because of an unbearable itch coming from the tip of my nose.A pair of shining round blue eyes were revealed when I opened my eyes. I scrambled backward and froze in shock."Mommy!"I didn't even realize I had fallen on the bed if my butt hadn't hurt.The sudden actions made my head dizzy. I was almost hit my head at a small table beside the bed."What happened? Are you okay?"I immediately pointed at the black cat with blue eyes. He was sitting leisurely atop the bed while grooming his fur."There is a cat. Can you make the cat go away please?" I begged the newcomer hoarsely without taking my eyes off the cat."Oh, you're here, I've been looking for you. Luffy, come here."When the cat heard what the man said, it jumped down on the bed and slowly walked away from me.My gaze followed its every move until my eyes landed on a familiar man.The man was tall with brown skin. His tantalizing sky-blue eyes, seems to speak volume.Eyes that a

Why should I cry?Why should I even cry for?I should have known better.I should have thought a hundred times before I tied the knot with that person. If I hadn't been too hasty and given in to my emotions, I would have had more choices now.Two nights have passed but I still can't get Lejandro's answer to my question out of my mind.'Forgive me, dear. I only did that because I was so excited to be with you but you didn't let me have my way with you. In fact, you are the only one in my mind and heart even though I have a different partner. I was only tempted because of that woman's eyes. I didn't mean to.'He didn't even deny it, he even managed to blame me for his lust for the flesh and infidelity.'You know that even then many sexy women forced themselves on me, but I married you. Just forgive me, my wife, I will never give in to others temptation again. You are the only one I love.'I thought at first I could forgive him when I found out his side of the story, but I was wrong.Sho

"Just by the Orion Hotel, Sir.""Just drop me here, here's the payment. Thank you."When the tricycle stopped, I immediately handed the fare to the man."Are you going on vacation, ma’am or do you have family on the island?"“Ah, I’m just going on vacation.""Oh is that so, welcome to Catanduanes! Don't forget to wander around, it's definitely worth your time to come here.""I really intend to make the most of it because I've only just set foot here."I got out of the car and pulled my suitcase out. Just as I was fixing it, another passenger handed over my traveling bag which was placed on the roof of the tricycle.It's a bit heavy so I just put it atop the suitcase."Selio, please help Ma'am to carry her things because it looks like she's going to have a hard time going up.""Oh no, don't. I don't want to bother you and besides, it's embarrassing, I can handle my things it’s not heavy at all."I quickly raised my hands to protest."It's okay."I almost jumped in shock when I heard th

I took a single gulp of the shot of wine. I can feel the bitter drink caressing my throat."I thought you were okay, why don't you look like it?"I didn't pay attention to Luis in front of me, instead it was as if my eyes were fixed on the two people who seemed to be lovers. They are very close to each other with their lips meeting every so often."How about let’s rush and beat them up?"When I put the glass down, I calmly grabbed the handkerchief from my pocket."Yes, let's do that," said George staring seriously at Luis.Luis Castillo is my boss- no, my former boss. He possesses both Filipino and Indian blood, who owns a clothing business. George is a friend of Luis who came with us back to the Philippines.I worked as a manager, for almost 2 years, under Luis in Delhi. However, I resigned 2 days ago to have a talk with Lejandro, my husband, and now here I am.I couldn't help but stand up when I saw them get up and go out. I was no longer able to pay attention to my companions."Xan

"Undress.""Huh? What did you say? I think I'm deaf. Can you say that again?" I subconsciously asked, eyes wide in shock.My palms almost sweat in anticipation of his answer."Is there something wrong with your hearing?"I shook my head to answer his question pretty speechless from his sudden request that sounds more like a request.My heart started thumping loudly, so loud that I am afraid he might hear it."When can I talk to you sober."The man sighed."Come on, tell me. What did you say earlier?"I couldn't help but tease him.His eyes narrowed and he looked away. His grip on my wrist loosened, which disappointed me."It’s nothing. I said you need to go to sleep."Without looking back, he made his way to his room."Still pretentious."I laughed and held my chest in hopes of calming my lively beating heart."You're so impulsive. What if I get addicted to you?"I closed the door softly. I leaned against the wall and untied the strap of my sandals.I feel silly when his words and act
