Aalis kami ngayon at tatlong araw kaming mawawala dahil napagisipan namin ni Harris na mag-unwind ngayon sa Siargao. Maiiwan si Austin sa aking mga manugang. “Yes, Mommy. Don’t worry I will behave and I am not going to give my grandparents a headache,” sabi niya at itinaas pa ang isang kamay niya na tila nanunumpa.“Siguraduhin mo lang dahil kapag nalaman ko ang mga hindi kaaya-ayang bagay na ginawa mo, you know what will happen to you right?” I seriously told him and he nodded. “Ayoko naman, Mommy ma-ground ng toys ko,” sabi niya kaya tumango naman ako.I discipline our child in the way of grounded and talks, hindi ko kailanman pinagbuhatan ng kamay at sinigawan ang anak namin dahil ayaw kong itanim sa utak ni Austin na sa

Chapter: SPECIAL CHAPTER 01AUDREY“Mama Audrey!” masayang tawag sa akin ng isang batang tumatakbo na ngayon papunta sa akin na may dala-dala siyang isang maliit na basket at may laman itong prutas. We are in the Philippines now and my family decided to stay here since this is the work place of Harris and I.“Hello, Kendall!” sabi ko at saka siya sinalubong ito ng isang mahigpit na yakap. Four years ago a woman came in our house and asking for our help, it’s Adelaine. This is child of Adelaine and my brother, she survived the cancer.“How is my baby girl doing?” malambing kong tanong sa kaniya. Sa aming lahat na magkakapatid ay siya sa akin pinaka-close kaya tinawag niya rin akong Mama Audrey at Papa Harris naman ang aking asawa. “Mama, pinabibigay ni Mama Ade sa iyo po,” masayang sabi niya kaya agad ko naman kinuha ang basket mula sa kamay niya.

Chapter: CHAPTER 40HARRIS After four years "Daddy! Chase me! Daddy!" sigaw ng isang batang lalaki na patuloy sa pagtakbo sa malawak na playground sa likod ng bahay ng mga Lamnelle. Agad naman akong tumakbo papunta sa kaniya kanina ko pa siya tinatawag na tumigil na dahil pupuntahan pa namin ang Mommy niya sa trabaho. Ako ang naiwan dito sa bahay poara alagaan ang anak namin ni misis. "Anak, stop running! Kapag nadapa ka malalagot ako kay Mommy mo!" nagmamakaawa kong suway sa anak kong lalaki, three years old pa lang at sobrang kulit na. What more for the upcoming years? Baka mamuti na ang buhok ko kahit hindi pa ako pasok sa senior citizen. "Edi mabuti!" natatawang sabi niya sa akin kaya natawa na rin ako, tumigil ako nung tumakbo siya palapit sa akin at bigla itong nadapa kaya dinaluhan ko ito. Nanlalaki ang mga mata ko at bigla akong pinagpawisan kaya naman tumakbo ako papunta sa kaniya. "Ito na nga ba ang si

Chapter: CHAPTER 39AUDREYMasaya akong nahulog ang lahat ng bagay sa tamang lalagyan kagaya nito ngayon hindi ko inaasahan na magsasama ang dalawang pamilya sa isang lugar na hindi nagpapatayan hindi gaya ng dati na bawal sila sa iisang lugar. Even the mafia boss of Lamnelle clan is here which is Harris.The La Vostans and Lanuers. Wala dito si Ellie na anak ng matandang La Vostans dahil nagaaral ito sa ibang bansa at mas pinili niyang lumayo na lamang sa magulong mundo na kinamulatan niya.Nakahalukipkip lang ako dito at nagmamasid kung ano ang susunod nilang gagawin, wala naman akong balak sumali sa away kung may mangyayaring away man."Yes, and I really thank your daughter, Audrey who is a real bitch for saving me even though she's the one who hit me," Old man said kaya napairap ako hindi ko pa rin maalis sa isipan ko ang mga sinabi ng matandang ito na gusto akong pakasalan? Sa harap pa mismo ng asawa niya? Eww. Kaderder ha. Anyway, move on, Audrey!

Chapter: CHAPTER 38AUDREYKinaumagahan ay mas maaga pa akong nagising kaysa sa mga kasama ko sa bahay, nakaligo na ako at nakabihis na dahil mamayang eight o'clock pa ang lapag ng eroplano na sinasakyan ni Harris. Nakatayo ako sa harap ng full-length mirror at sinusuri ang katawan ko, royal blue ang kulay ng dress na suot ko at naka-off shoulder pa ako.Halos mapatalon ako ng bumukas ang pinto ng kwarto ko at si Ate Beatrice lang naman pala eh, halatang bagong gising palang ito at lumaki ang mga mata niya ng mapagtantong nakabihis na ako."What the? Saktong five o’clock in the morning pa lang ah," komento ni Ate sa akin at natawa na lang ako sa kaniya. Pumasok siya sa aking kwarto at lumapit ito sa akin tapos bigla na lang siyang yumuko at lumevel sa tiyan ko. “Anyway, good morning to our little champ,” sabi niya sabay haplos pa dito kaya naman nakaramdam ako ng kasiyahan.“Ate---”“Hep!

Chapter: CHAPTER 37AUDREYDalawang linggo na ang nakalilipas simula nung makalabas ako ng Hospital at bukas naman ang uwi ni Harris dito, umuwi lang siya nung isang araw sa Pilipinas upang ayusin ang leave niya. Hindi pa rin ako pwedeng bumyahe ng mahabang oras and I can't risk my child's safety. I was advised to not travel while I’m in my first trimester because it’s the crucial part.Naalala ko pa nung nalaman nila Tita Lauren ang kalagayan ko ay agad silang lumipad papunta dito.Nasa bahay na kami noon at kakalabas ko lang ng hospital, si Harris ang umaayos lahat ng gamit ko at ako naman ay nandito sa aming sala, naka-upo at kumakain ng cookies.Bumukas ang pinto ng bahay at nanlalaki pa ang mga mata ko ng makita ko sina Tita Lauren, Tito Harrold at Thallia."Audrey darling!""Oh my gosh! Ate Audrey!"Hinintay ko na tawagin din ako ni Tito Harrold pero kumindat lang ito sa akin at n

Chapter: CHAPTER 75I went back to the hospital and visited my daughter. I left them at the headquarters. I am with Scarlet. We reached the floor, and the security personnel assigned to us stopped us from entering. What the hell? "It's a direct order from our boss not to let anyone in," he said. I looked at him from head to toe, he looks like a newbie in the group. "What's your name?" I asked him. "I am sorry, Ma'am. I can't disclose my personal information. Please leave the perimeter," he said to us. Scarlet scoffed. I took a deep sigh. "Where is your boss? Bring him to me," I commanded him. "I can't take orders from anyone, Ma'am. Please, leave," he said politely. I laughed sarcastically. I fished my phone out of my pocket to dial the head of this team. He immediately answered. "To whom do I owe this call?" "Your personnel is preventing us from entering the floor. I need to visit my daughter," I told him. The guy is standing firm on his ground and watching us like an eagle. "Ma'am, forg

Chapter: CHAPTER 74The body of the person who was caught in the act of hurting my daughter was thrown into a pool full of piranhas. Blood covered the surface and I could hear the sound of piranhas tearing the body, that's when I felt satisfied. "Are you feeling good?" Silver asked me. I crossed my arms above my chest. "A little. Who are they working for?" I asked him. Giovanni is standing across from me. "We're investigating it but given the same tattoo they had. It's the ancient enemy," Silver informed. My forehead creased and I looked at him. "Ancient? What do you mean?" I asked again. "It's their family's enemy. It's the clan they banished two decades ago," he answered. "And suddenly, we were involved?" He nodded. "Unfortunately, yes. You are married to a guy who has lots of hidden enemies underneath," he confirmed. I closed my eyes tightly and took a deep breath. "His family assured that no bloodline from that family lives. They were considered a closed case but we don't know if

Chapter: CHAPTER 73Anastacia is confined to the hospital. Her pediatrician recommends that we consult a psychologist for our daughter. She seems unwell and unusually quiet. She hugs her small stuffed toy. I'm worried for her. My heart aches for my little girl. "Giovanni," I called my husband and he noticed my weak voice. I went outside of her room and my parents are with Anastacia. My husband went immediately to me. I cried in his arms. "I-I can't imagine the trauma she went through. She's barely 3 years old!" I said and stomped my feet on the floor. Scarlet and her husband came to us, when she saw my state, she got teary-eyed. "What happened?" Anthony asked us. "Our child's doctor suggests that we should let Anastacia see a psychologist. She barely speaks and looks unusual," Giovanni answered. "Oh dear," Scarlet gasped at what she heard. "She's a baby and yet, people were cruel to her," she commented. "Find the best psychologist in the country and make sure they can help her. Anastaci

Chapter: CHAPTER 72My hands and feet are cold as ice right now because I am so eager to meet my husband and my child. I shouldn't drink an iced coffee because it worsens my heartbeat."Calm down, Thalia. Calm down," Scarlet said as she caressed my back. I'm on the verge of crying but I can't see them yet. We're staying in the hospital's hallway due to security reasons, we can't stay outside. I took multiple deep breaths and I heard a baby's cry so my tears flowed like a waterfall.My husband. My family is walking towards us. I scanned them and I'm glad they are not bleeding! I met them in the middle. "Oh, baby," I said and hugged them tightly. "I'm so terrified," I whispered. I felt Giovanni's lips in my head. "We're safe. We're fine," he assured me and I nodded. I immediately get my daughter from him. "Anastacia, are you okay, my love?" I asked her and it seems like she understood me. She nodded with a smile on her face while she was drenched in tears. "I thought I was going to lose you too," I sai

Chapter: CHAPTER 71I ran to my parents' hospital room and I found them lying on the bed unconscious. They have a medical team checking up on them. "How are they, Doctor?" I asked the person in charge. She put down her stethoscope in my mother's bed. "They are fine now, Ma'am. They only need to recuperate," she answered. I was relieved. "How about Mr and Mrs Brickser? Where are they?" I asked her. "There's another door connecting to their room. They were fine as your parents, Ma'am. Probably, they were shocked by what happened," she said. "Thank you so much, Doctor," I told her, and she smiled. "You can trust me, Ma'am. I owe my life to your husband," she said, so I smiled at her. "Thalia, you need to rest," Blue said as I sat on the sofa. "It's been hard today," he added but I shook my head. "I can't sleep, I can't take a rest knowing my child is out there and she's in danger," I told him. Another tear runs down to my left cheek and I wipe it harshly. "This is the second time I saw y

Chapter: CHAPTER 70My fingers are fidgeting nervously, I try to calm down, but I can't help it. We're inside Giovanni's office and his IT analysts are here. They were tracing the address of the sender and couldn't locate it. "Goddamn it!" I heard Giovanni curse as he kicked his table due to frustration. Another email was sent in my account, but this time it horrified me. A picture of our safe house where our family stays. Giovanni rushed over to the computer. "One wrong decision and they will be burned alive," he read the message from the sender. That broke me. I hate that I felt so helpless! Giovanni came to me and hugged me tightly. "They will be safe, I will dispatch the alpha team," he assured me but it didn't help. "I have to be there, please," I told him, and he shook his head. "You can't put yourself in danger, Thalia," he said and kissed my forehead. "I can't bear to lose another child, Giovanni. It would kill me, I have no will to live," I told him and he nodded. "They will be
