Chapter: CHAPTER 86CHAPTER 86I don't know what happened but I realized that we're in the backseat now. Nakakaduling ang halik ni Immanuel, nakakaadik, nakakawala ng bait na hindi ko man lang napansin na hinuhubaran niya na ang sarili habang ako ay underwear na lamang ang suot.The backseat was so comfortable and spacious though... Immanuel made that great decision."I don't want to waste every second while I'm with you, Aya. Just tell me that you're mine, Aya. 'Cause even though you refused that, I'm all yours, no one can change that thing... Not even you, Aya."He positioned himself above me again, his lips traveling from my neck downward to my breasts, where my bra was still fastened. I arched my back in response, my arms wrapping around him. I guided his hand to the back of my bra, and with ease, he unhooked it, freeing me from the constraint.He looked at me then, and his expression held nothing but intimacy and desire."Immanuel, I regret refusing you... I think it was all my fault that this trage

Wala naman talaga sa plano ko ang mag-ice cream gayong tinriger lang ng mokong na 'to ang moodswing ko!Pumasok na kami sa may kotse niya. Nagda-drive ulit siya habang ako ay kinakain ko na ang ice cream na binili niya.Madali iyon matunaw kaya minamadali ko na ang pagdila. Nakikita ko rin na sumusulyap si Immanuel sa tuwing ginagawa ko 'yon...By the time we pulled up in front of the house, my ice cream was still half-melted and dripping rapidly."Shit," I cursed. "May tissue ka?""No," he said, and I heard the slight strain in his voice. "I ran out earlier." His Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed heavily.I saw his adams apple move. Mas lalo lang akong napamura sa isip nang tumulo sa dibdib ko ang ice cream na natunaw! sa mismong gitna kung saan may hiwa ang dibdib ko at sa balat pa mismo!I tried to wipe it away with my hand, but Immanuel immediately grabbed my wrist, stopping me.He turned my body slightly and

Chapter: CHAPTER 84CHAPTER 84I didn't reply to him... But somehow i liked how his words lingered into my soul. Wala akong pakialam kung anuman ang sasabihin niya kung anuman ang kahulugan n'on, basta dama ko na nandito siya, na malapit siya sa akin, na katabi ko siya.Nagsimula na ang orasyon at dasal ni Tita Nesia ngunit hindi ako maka-focus! Sa tuwing kasi pumipikit si Tita ay palihim akong sumusulyap kay Immanuel! Tapos ang mokong, sa akin lang nakatingin palagi!"Mag-focus ka nga..." bulong ko habang bumibilis ang dasal ni Tita."Naka-focus naman ako, ah?" aniya habang titig na titig sa akin.Nakafocus? Saan? sa akin?I rolled my eyes. Bahala siya, kung hindi man maging effective ang pagpapawala ng bisa ay hindi ko na kasalanan 'yon!Nilalapit niya rin ang kamay namin na magkahawak sa hita ko at doon pinagpapahinga. Aba! Matindi rin! Porque okay na kami kanina ah?!"Tapos na ang orasyon. Napawalang bisa na ang sumpa," si Tita Nesia.Binitawan na namin ang kamay ng bawat isa. Si Immanuel nang tingna

Their case was still on-going, ngunit wala raw dapat ipagalala dahil hindi raw kayang kasuhan si Immanuel gayong maraming nakapatong na kaso si Albert lalo na tungkol sa pambubuhat niya ng kamay sa akin.Kumain na kami nang iyon lang laman ng isipan ko. Maraming hinandang pagkain, marami akong nakain... Nagligpit lang kami madali at saka pumunta na ako sa kwarto para maligo. Nagpapatuyo ako ng buhok nang biglang pumasok si Tita Nesia sa kuwarto."Tita..." saad ko.Pumasok siya nang tuluyan,"Halika muna madali lang!" She stepped all the way inside and closed the door behind her. Without a preamble, she grabbed my wrist and pulled me toward her."Bakit po?" nahihiwagan kong saad.Huminto siya sa tapat ng kuwarto niya atsaka tiningnan ako nang mariin bago dahan-dahang umiling."Naku! Nakapasinungaling mo talaga!" singhal niya."Huh? Bakit po?"I had no idea where this was going."Hindi mo naman pala pinainom sa girlfriend ni Ma

Ako 'yong kaibigan mo rito, Aya! Wala man lang ba pampa-albor sa akin diyan?" Humalukipkip si Cherry at ngumuso.Nagtawanan kami."May trabaho ka na, Cherry! Mas kailangan 'yon ni Julie!""Naging kaibigan pa kita," singhal niya.Natawa ako. Tiningnan ko naman si Tita Nesia na may kausap sa kawalan habang nasa kabisera. I sighed, I remembered our earlier conversation. Mas lalo akong nagkaroon ng rason para bumalik sa bahay nila."Ayan na pala sila!" si Cherry.May kotse nga sa labas... Tumalbog ang puso ko. I pursed my lips."Kakausapin ko lang si Limuel. Makikimalita ako sa kaniya," si Cherry.Sumunod ako sa kaniya habang kinakabahan.

His Darkest Pledge (Entice Series 3)
His Darkest Pledge (Entice Series 3)
Xia Alanny Buenaventura Garcia—kidnapped by her own father. Para maisalba ang papalubog na kompanya, itinali siya sa isang lalaking hindi niya kailanman ginusto. Sa isang malamig at maulan na gabi, tumakas siya at nagpakalayo-layo. Binago niya ang kanyang pangalan, pagkatao, at pangarap.
Naging kasambahay siya ng isang Chief. Lahat ay ginawa niya upang hindi siya mabuko—upang hindi malamang peke ang pangalang ginamit niya. Pero paano kung sa hindi inaasahang pagkakataon, mahulog siya sa lalaking ito? Paano kung balak na niyang bumalik sa dating buhay? Paano kung magsisi siyang hindi niya napakasalan ang lalaking nakatakda para sa kaniya?
Paano kung buo na ang desisyon niya? Paano kung gusto na niyang kilalanin ang taong pakakasalan niya sana?
But for that man, despite Xianny running away... his heart belonged only to her. His darkest pledge was her. Nothing more, nothing less—but her.
But who's that guy? If they're both chasing her?
---
A story of escape, hidden identities, forbidden love, and a man who never stopped waiting.

Chapter: CHAPTER 49CHAPTER 49 Dati, noong nag-aaral pa ako, palagi akong nagpapakatotoo sa sarili ko. My decisions were always shaped by being true to myself. There were no barriers in it, and the output would always turn out satisfactory... or at least, that was what I believed back then. Pero ngayong hindi na ako nag-aaral, ngayong namatay si Daddy, iyong desisyon ko na tumakbo at magpakalayo-layo ay dala ng takot. Fear consumed me before I even had the chance to think things through. I ran before I could fully understand what I was running from. And now... I made another decision, marrying someone because of conscience. Na iyong taong hindi ko lubusang kilala ay marami na palang nagawa noong nawala ako sa buhay nila nang mahabang panahon. Hindi ko maiwasang isipin na isang taon na rin pala ako bilang kasambahay. I've learned a lot. I've learned what hard work really feels like from the inside. Na mahirap din pala kahit na hindi na ako nag-aaral. I just always remember my Kuya Limuel whenever I fee

Chapter: CHAPTER 48CHAPTER 48Siguro kung hindi lang ako nagself-reflect kagabi, baka umiiyak na naman ako ngayon! My Mom does not like seeing me cry. She absorbs other people's emotions so easily, and seeing me fall apart only makes things harder for her."Don't worry so much, Xianny anak... I am sorry, okay? I will... Ayaw kong iwan kita kaya lumalaban ako, Xianny.""I will do everything, Mommy. Everything it takes for you to get back to the life you deserve," sambit ko sa kaniya.Ngumiti siya. Hinugasan ko iyong mga apples na dala ko at nang bumalik ako ay nagsimula akong balatan si Mommy ng apples."But, anak... Lance told me that your Dad had arranged a marriage between you and Lance," she said suddenly.Napalunok ako. Nakalimutan ko na halos ang bagay na iyon dahil si Mommy lang ang laman ng isipan ko kagabi.Mabagal kong napagtanto na si Lance pala ang naabutan ko kagabi. Na dahil sa labis na emosyon, hindi ko naisip na baka may kap

Chapter: CHAPTER 47CHAPTER 47Tiningnan ko si Lance. His voice has something I did not expect from him. He's kind, one thing that I never anticipated from a guy like him... Hindi ko makita na ganoon siya. I thought he was the kind of person you could not trust, the kind who did things only when there was something in it for him.But I was only thinking that because I was that kind of person myself. Naging masama akong anak at hindi inisip ang naiwan kong pamilya. Hindi ko naisip na hindi lang naman ako ang nasasaktan at may pinagdadaanan. And sitting here now, I felt so small. My pain, my running away, my excuses. None of it changes the fact that my mother was here, suffering, while I was somewhere else living as someone I was not."Ako lang at ang pinsan mong si Daniah ang may alam na may cancer siya, Xianny.""W-Why didn't you tell me, Lance?""You were busy chasing your dreams, Xianny. I did not want to disturb that," he said simply.May pumiga

Chapter: CHAPTER 46CHAPTER 46Luna led me off the elevator. Her steps were slow and heavy as we looked for the room. Mine were oddly light.I want to rest. I want to sleep and pretend this day never happened. But Luna brought me here, and whatever is waiting behind that door is something I cannot keep running from.Not this time.Nasa tapat na kami ng pintuan, at hindi kumakatok si Luna. Tiningnan niya ako sabay abot ng aking kamay.Lumayo siya sa pintuan at naupo sa may bleachers malapit sa kuwarto. She smiled at me forcedly without her teeth, and gestured with her hand. Telling me to knock.Napabuntong-hininga ako at kumatok."Who's that?"The door opened. And before I could even process that the voice behind it was a man's, I already saw him standing there.Nanlaki ang aking mata nang makita si Lance... at sa dulo ay isang kama kung saan ay may nakahiga at nakasuot ng hospital gown."Xianny..."It fel

This is the fastest way I know. The only way out of everything I left behind.Makukulong ba kapag peke ang pangalan mo? Will I be put behind bars because I falsified something? Because I lied about who I was?Naiyak ako lalo... Pero napagtanto ko, mas maayos nang ganoon.At least, hindi ko makikita ang ekspresyon ni Treve. Hindi ko malalaman kung galit ba siya o malungkot.Umalis ako sa mansion niya nang wala siya. Tinulungan ako nina Kyla na mag-empake kahit na labag sa loob nila na paalisin ako, pero alam nila na mas makakabuti iyon dahil takot na takot na ako noong mga oras na iyon.Napasandal ako at napapikit ng mata.Why does all of this still bring me back to Treve? Why is he the first thing I think about, even now?Malamang katula

Chapter: CHAPTER 44CHAPTER 44I shrugged my shoulders.Hindi ko maintindihan si Manang. The way she said it—nakakatakot, at hindi ko malamang dahilan. Tila hindi ako mapanatag kahit sinabi kong nagbibiro lang si Manang Flory.Or maybe I was just bracing myself for a tough day. I needed to take an exam—which I already did. And I needed to tell the truth to Treve.Busy ako sa mga nagdaang araw para sa exam at hindi ko napaghandaan ang sasabihin kong dahilan kay Treve. Malawak naman ang pang-unawa niya. Hindi naman siya iyong tipong uunahin agad ang emosyon. He would take my explanation in a civil way.Pero paano kung hindi?Paano kung masabi ko na ang lahat—tapos pangunahan siya ng emosyon? Na sa loob ng mahabang panahon na nagsama kami ay nagpakatotoo siya, pero ako pala itong hindi? Na masyado ko itong pinatagal at kailangan ko pa silang lokohin lahat?Siguro iyon ang dahilan kung bakit, habang mas papalapit kami sa mansyon, mas lalong bum

Chapter: EPILOGUEA/N: This is the final chapter, and nothing will follow. Thank you so much for reading this second installment of Entice... or should I rename it the Buenaventura series? Since it revolves around the Buenaventura cousins. But anyway... I hope you had fun reading this! I also want to inform you that series 3 will be posted soon, entitled "His Darkest Pledge"—that's the story of Xianny and Treve. I hope you'll still support me there. May mga encounter scenes pa roon sina Cherry, Ayannah, Immanuel at Limuel, so hindi pa naman nakakabitin ang ending nitong story.Bewitched Attorney (Entice Series 2)Written By: Tatterdemalion10/19/2025-01/31/2025TO GOD BE THE GLORY.EPILOGUELIVEUXX AMUELO BUENAVENTURA GARCIAAnd I think I was bold enough to make that happen, driven by a determination that surprised even me.

I had my Superman bag slung over my shoulder.A smile suddenly crept into my lips. "Really, Mom?""Yes... Don't tell your Dad about it, okay? We'll surprise him," she whispered. Naaamoy ko ang lavender niyang pabango ngunit may halo itong ointment na nilagay niya sa kaniyang katawan.I was still young back then, naive about how the world really worked. All my heart and mind craved was fun and happiness. Hindi ko pa alam na ang iba pang mga ngiti ni Mommy ay hindi pala totoo. She was forcing herself to be strong, pretending she was still happy with Dad when she really wasn't."We're going to Tito Carlos' house, right?"My Mom nodded. "Yes. You said that you want to meet him."My Mom was American, she had a little bit of Filipino blood. I inherited most of my feature

Palagi ka na lang busy!"Natawa ako habang nag-aayos ng gamit. Hinahawakan na naman ni Ayannah ang kaniyang tiyan habang madilim ang tingin sa akin. Well, she's having her mood swings? Because guess what—buntis na naman siya!"Kakabisita ko lang sa kaniya kagabi, ah? Ano? Baka gusto mong ako ang kilalanin niyang ina paglaki?" dinaan ko sa tawa ang aking sagot pero ang gaga, tinapunan ako ng ballpen.I could see the corner of her mouth twitching.She made a face. "Binuhat mo lang siya ng ilang minuto tapos umalis ka kaagad! Nag-date kayo n'ong pinsan ni Immanuel!""At least nakakita si Vianna ng maganda kagabi!

Baka isipin niya, nababaliw na ako."Sinabi sa akin ni Limuel na ikaw daw ang nag-me-maintain nitong tree house niya?""Ah opo, Sir..." lumiit ang boses ko.Nasa taas na kami ng tree house. Kita sa buong paligid ang mga mayayabong na bulaklak. Sobrang bango at presko ng hangin dahil puro halaman ang nakapaligid sa amin.Suot ko na ang jacket na kanina ay suot ni Tito Carlos. Aniya'y nilalamig daw ako nang makita niya.Nilingon ko si Tito Carlos. Magkamukha sila ni Talia. Tito Carlos was a pure Filipino while Tita Helen was an American with Filipino blood from her grandparents. Ngunit kahit dominant ang pagiging Americana ni Talia, kapansin-pansin pa rin ang pagkakahawig niya sa ama. Tito Carlos was handsome and distinguished—just like Talia, he was tall with somewhat stern features. H

Chapter: CHAPTER 87CHAPTER 87A full two years was full of joy, frustrations, stress, and happiness. Wala akong ginawa kundi ang ibalanse ang lahat: ang trabaho, ang sarili, ang pag-aaral, at ang tindahan. Masasabi kong sa loob ng maikling panahon na 'yon, napatunayan ko na hindi ko naman pala kailangan ng masyadong maraming tulong galing sa iba upang makamit ang mga gusto ko.Ngayon, hindi ko na iniisip na galing sa maruming kamay, galing kay Mariano, ang mga nakamit ko. Na kapag magtrabaho ulit ako, matatanggap ako dahil may degree at tinapos ko ito, hindi dahil itinapon lamang ako dahil sa awa."Sayang, pasok sana ang GWA mo sa latin honors! Kaso... ate," malungkot na sabi ni Julie.I wore my Filipiniana with an alampay draped over it. Sina Julie, kaninang umaga ay may recognition day rin at kasali siya sa Dean's Lister.

Chapter: CHAPTER 86CHAPTER 86 Mayaman na raw talaga dati pa si Tita Helen—iyong Mama nina Limuel at Talia. Bago pa sila magka-anak ni Mariano, may mga negosyo na siya na naiwan sa America. Maybe their love didn't work out. Arrange marriage daw ang nangyari, pero sa hindi inaasahan, mas minahal ni Tita Helen si Tito Carlos, iyong biological father ni Talia. Tita Helen tried to convince Mariano to take Talia with them, but that damn Mariano refused. Kagaya ng nangyari kay Ma'am Marimar, Tita Helen experienced abuse from her husband. May anak na rin naman sila noon, si Limuel, dahilan kung bakit tiniis niya ang lahat ng pananakit ng kanyang asawa. But things didn't turn out the way they expected. Siguro nga, iba rin kapag may anak ka na—kaya mong tiisin ang hirap. Pero darating talaga ang araw na pipiliin mo rin ang sarili mong kaligayahan. Iyong kahit husgahan ka ng iba, ay ayos lang, dahil ikaw naman ang sasaya at hindi sila. Nakwento na sa akin lahat ni Limuel sa video call. Nasa America na siya nga
