Chapter: Epilogue
Marissa’s POV“Hmmmm,” I moaned when I felt a tingling sensation under my top. Diego whispered my name in my ear as his finger played with my nipple on my right boob. I could feel his manhood on my butt, moving against me. He kissed the side of my neck. I did not open my eyes and just felt his touch.His hand moved downward until it reached my pajama. He then slipped his hand inside to touch me on my core. I moaned loudly when I felt his index finger poking my spot. He rubbed it teasingly. He shifted my weight until I was now completely laying on the bed. He did not even remove my top and just pulled it up so he could devour my boobs while his hand while still playing with my core. I spread my legs so he could gain access more.“Ah, Diego…” I moaned, meeting his touch.I ruffled his hair, almost getting to my climax. His poking turned into a circular motion, at first sensual and slow until harsh and fast. Every circle he makes, is every moan I did that echoed in our entire bedroom.

Chapter: Chapter One-Hundred-Nineteen: Baby, I Am Just Here
Marissa’s POV“It’s okay. Don’t treat it as a big deal,” Nica assured me. “For some point, he is right, that maybe I was too overwhelmed and cared about you and Lilith, that is why I judged him too soon.”I sighed in relief and hugged my best friend. “I’m sorry again.”“I know you know him more than any other people, that is why you may have a reason why you choose to forgive him. But whatever it is, I just want you and Lilith to be happy.”“Thank you, Nica. You are the best.”After our lunch, I went to Nica to apologize because of what Diego said to her before he left for work. Lilith and Nanny Elisa stayed in the living area while I was escorting Brylle and Nica outside the house since they can’t stay long.“Just tell us if you need anything, Marissa. We wanted to check on you after the storm that hit,” Brylle said as he placed his arm on Nica’s shoulder.I smiled and nodded. “Thank you for visiting us. I will invite you again this weekend,” I said.“Bye!”After we kissed each other

Chapter: Chapter One-Hundred-Eighteen: Protect Marissa and Lilith At All Costs
Marissa’s POVDiego was right. It took five days before the rain stopped and the weather became good. We definitely just enjoyed the time we were together in his condominium, doing what lovers do, and savored every minute I am with him in this little world. “I can’t wait to see Lilith,” I said to Diego while he was in the driver’s seat. “Are you going to work after?”He nodded, his other hand on the steering wheel while his right one was on my hand that was resting on his left lap. “I have to. There were a lot of conferences that were on hold due to the bad weather,” he said and squeezed my hand before kissing the back of it. “Let’s have a date later. Get Lilith and Nanny Elisa ready also.”I hid my smile but could not so I just pouted. “Why? We have been together for five days. Are you not sick of me?”“Why would I? Seeing you everytime is like a holiday. You are the light in my darkest world, and Lilith is the new color of my life. I don’t think I could ever forgive myself if the

Chapter: Chapter One-Hundred-Seventeen: Claim You As My Boyfriend
Marissa’s POV“What?” I muttered.Diego did not even answer me and immediately stood up. Without even opening my mouth, he pulled me up and continued doing so until my butt was on his left shoulder and my head was facing his butt instead.“Diego!” I called out. “Put me down!”But he didn’t listen. He marched towards the hallway without even turning off the television in the living area. I hugged his waist as he held the back of my knees in front of his body. When we reached his dark bedroom, he laid me down on his bed. With the help of his yellow lamp shade, I could see him taking off his shirt and dropping it on the floor. He didn’t even remove his eyes from mine as he proceeded pulling down his shorts until only his brief was exposed in front of me. I refused to look at his bulk below and just the lustful expression he was bestowing.He slowly crawled on the bed on top of me until he matched where my face was looking. He shrouded the white ceiling, and only his brown eyes were the o

Chapter: Chapter One-Hundred-Sixteen: What Lingers In Heart and Mind
Marissa’s POV“I made tea,” Diego announced, making me snap back to reality after watching him for a while.Oh, no…What is happening to me?“U-Uhh…” I stammered and continuously blinked so I could think of what to say. “I guess, thanks. I also crave tea… I mean, it does not mean I want it, but maybe I need… but like it’s not really my type, but I did not want to waste the trouble you rendered in making that, so-““Marissa,” he cut me off, which made me stop blabbering stupidity. “If you don’t want tea, it’s okay. If you want, then I will give you.”That’s what you get from acting nonsense, Marissa! Now you are exposed in front of this handsome creature on Earth!“Yes! I would like some tea!” I agreed and chuckled nervously. “Sorry, it must have been the wind that made me panic.”“Panic from what?”“Panic from, uhhh, rain outside.”The baffle was plastered across his face as he followed me nearing him. My eyes fixated on the cup of tea he was holding. Clearing my throat, I gradually g

Chapter: Chapter Eleven: Phone
I slowly looked up to Dark who was tightly hugging me as he furrowed his eyebrows and watched the car sprinting away which was about to hit me a while ago. I could see his chiseled jaw above my forehead, making me gulp due to its intense feeling it was giving me.“Fuck that driver…” he mumbled and looked down at me. “Are you okay?”I immediately shook my head and snapped out from my thoughts so I could push his chest away. “I… I’m sorry…” I said and cleared my throat.“Why are you mad, by the way?” he asked.“I am not,” I denied abruptly and turned my back on him, only to realize that my heart was beating so fast.We entered the mall after the guard examined the two of us. A woman in a black suit and hair in a bun who was formally standing in front of the guard straightened up as she saw us. I was about to ignore her, but Dark approached her half way. I squinted my eyes and did not have any choice but to follow.“Good day, sir,” the serious woman greeted with a frowning face. “I hope

Chapter: Chapter Ten: He Made Me Feel So Ugly!
“Let’s go out.”I was reading a book from the library when Dark knocked on the door. I immediately closed the book when he appeared he looked at what I was reading. A smile plastered on my lips as I regarded him.“Oh, where are we going?” I asked with mandatory enthusiasm to avoid suspicions.“At the mall. We will buy a dress for you,” he said.“But why?”“Dinner in Baguio,” he said. “Jachrimo is already there.”“And do you mind if I ask why we are going to Baguio? It is too far… and cold,” I suggested and tilted my head.“A celebration,” he answered briefly answered and turned his back on me. “You’d better be ready next minute.”My face was disgruntled as I followed him with my glares. He talked to a maid before going his way. The maid, on the other hand, escorted me to my room and gave me the privacy to change.Sometimes, he is sweet. Sometimes, he is just a pure asshole. I could stand his cousin more than him. He wanted me to be his wife, and yet, I could not even go closer to him.

Chapter: Chapter Nine: Fell On Him
I paced back and forth in my room as I repeatedly looked at the cell phone plastered on the bed. I am reluctant to call my dad and report to him that Dark Vergara wants to marry me.This is the thing that I want, right? I am here to seduce him so that he will fall in love with me, ask my hand, and marry me to gain information about his gang's lousy activities. After that, I am out on this mission.But why is this happening all so fast? I did even go pass by a month here, and yet he is already proposing to me, which was my ultimate goal that I expected to go through a process. Because it was supposed to be that way!To distract his enemies? What does he mean by that?After pacing back and forth, I decided to try opening his study room again and not call my daddy to report anything unless I had my own answers. I have to investigate on my own this time because I am confused about his motives. He is not well-aware of who I am, so it is impossible that he knows about my identity and decides

Chapter: Chapter Eight: Marry Me
I'm thirsty. That was what I thought when I got up in bed and felt my throat so parched in the middle of my sleep. Going to the kitchen was the primary plan I had as I stood up and left my room to drink water. While yawning and going down the staircase, I noticed how dark the mansion was because the lights were all turned off... except the dining hall. I could see it through the hallway, pertaining that someone was still awake. A maid, perhaps? I would not be bothered in either ways since I also interact with them to create a good reputation in this mansion. In that way, they could also respect me as much as they respect Dark.I did not mind a person being in the kitchen, though. I just walked through the silent and eerie hallway. I will gradually see who is awake since I will have to pass by the dining hall before I can get to the refrigerator."S-Sir!" I exclaimed and almost jumped when I saw Dark Vergara sitting on a stool in front of the counter of a small bar. He only raised h

Chapter: Chapter Seven: The Scripted Confrontation
"Here it is..."I paused, watching the television in front of me when Dark just swayed himself over towards my direction. His nonchalant expression greeted me as he placed some women's clothes beside the sofa where I was sitting. I looked up at him and caressed the clothes he had just brought."You can wear all of these while you are here," he said, and demonstrated his hands."These are not new. Whose clothes are these?" I curiously asked when I noticed that there were no tags, and they looked like they were already used.On that question, he avoided his gaze and transferred it to the ongoing show on television. I squinted at his reaction. That was suspicious. "No questions. Just wear them," he said, avoiding the question. "Anyway, are you comfortable here? Or do you want me to transfer you to another room?""No, I am good," I said and smiled. "Tomorrow, we will go to your place where you and your supposed husband reside." I feel like I was caught red-handed. What? Why does he nee

Chapter: Chapter Six: Mistaken Room
"Have you already proceeded to meet him?" Dad asked from the other line. I tiptoed towards the huge curtains in the living area and stole a glance from the grand staircase, checking if someone was listening to me. Thank goodness the maids are busy in the pool area, so the living area was deserted. It was only me in the middle of a hot morning. "Yes, Dad," I answered and peeked over the thick, expensive curtains to see the maids cleaning outside. "I am in his mansion, and he is currently in his room. I don't know if he has the agenda for his gang today. Yesterday... everything happened so quickly..."From me planning to be hit by his car, so I could gain his sympathy. Went to the hospital, pretended that I was unconscious, and was even shocked that he was there - waiting for me to wake up. He even watched me open my eyes and guided me to sit on the hospital bed. And now... I am in his mansion with a roof on my head, a guest room that was offered to me, and a time frame that we could

Chapter: Chapter Seven: Gaidel Has A Crush On You
After the conversation Gaidel, Karlo, and I had inside the conference room, I was left alone with nothing to do but stare at the wall in front of me, as the two of them went outside, and Karlo wanted me to stay. I remained sitting on the swivel chair with both hands at the sides of my head, my elbows pressed against the table, and statuesque in my position. This can’t be true. This must be a dream. The information about being the heiress of this mysterious mafia organization was a lot to process.If my life were not at stake, would I have known everything about this? Would I have known that my parents built up a dangerous mafia organization where bad people chased them? And now that they are gone, I will take over? What the actual fu-?“Minerva,” I heard Karlo’s voice behind me, but I still did not turn to where he was. “We will leave now.”“I think I’m going to throw up first. Where’s the powder room?” I asked before standing up and confronting him. “Or is it kind of a portal again w

Chapter: Chapter Six: The Headquarters
“This is the headquarters of the Red Cartel. The members would train here, have conferences, and plan their missions for execution in specific deadlines,” Karlo elucidated with his tone being careful as we watched the door at the end of the hallway. “You will be frequent in visiting the headquarters now, Minerva. This will be your second home.”I looked up to him who was beside me and furrowed my eyebrows, slowly shaking my head. “Up until now, I still think you speak gibberish.”Karlo’s expression softened. “You will think otherwise once we go inside,” he said and offered his hand in front of me. “Shall we?”My eyes averted to his hand. Sighing, I accepted his hand and let myself be guided while walking through the silent, eerie hallway. Red Cartel. The placard was shoveling my senses. It was as if trying to connect inside my brain. Karlo let go of me when he clicked the buttons of the numbers beside the door. It needed a password to enter of course. After that, he placed his palm o

Chapter: Chapter Five: Can’t Trust Anyone
The maids have already brought the tray with food and water the moment Karlo went outside to leave me alone. I remained staring at the ceiling, trying to fight the headache caused by what Karlo said to me a while ago.The Red Cartel. The government. The enemies and criminals of my parents…Everything was overwhelming, and it made me think that all of it was a foolish joke. But if I were to make scenes that transpired last night, the shooting with guns, the men Karlo were trying to fight while carrying me, and Helen pulling out a gun to point at me, wishing me dead, it made me have goosebumps and Karlo might be telling the truth. I slowly sat on the bed and slapped my forehead. Suddenly, a phone rang beside my table. When I looked at it, it was beside the tray. My face lit up when I realized that it was Ian on the screen. I was about to grab it, but the door opened. Karlo also looked at my ringing phone before he took it and ended the call. I gasped in shock, my mouth dropping at wha

Chapter: Chapter Four: The Red Cartel
For a moment, I could not move as I watched Helen smirking devilishly and clicking the trigger. My life flashed before my eyes and my dead parents went through my mind. I just snapped back into reality when I felt warm hands wrapping around my body as the firing of bullets filled my ears. When I shakingly looked up, I saw the face of Karlo who was clenching his jaw as he kept shooting with his gun with me being held by him.I don’t even know what was happening anymore. The last thing I remember was being carried by his arms while we were jumping off the balcony. Am I dead? Because for some reason, I did not feel hurt. Or maybe, that is what you experience when you face death. Nothing but only dark silence.“You can leave,” a voice echoed in my ears.Leave? Who will leave?After a while, I heard a familiar sigh. Someone cleared its throat before speaking up.“What now, Karlo? Everyone will hunt your wife now,” I heard a man’s voice.My head was still light when I started opening my e

Chapter: Chapter Three: Helen, the Enemy
I did not even realize that there was media surrounding the entrance of the hotel. Their cameras blinded me, so I shrunk my eyes just so I could see clearly. The guards tried stopping them, but they kept capturing us, especially the other guests in front of us. “Mr. Rodriguez! Please let us have an interview!”“May we know what is your next project in the city?”“What can you say about the new elected president of the country? Mr. Karlo Rodriguez, please answer!”My ears were ringing of the name of the man beside me. When I looked at Karlo, that is when I realized that his hand was holding tightly on my knuckles. My eyes went down to my hand holding his wrist, his other hand was on my waist, and his head alternately looking side by side, as if we were in a pedestrian lane and he is protecting me from the fast cars which are the reporters and media trying to bump us. It felt like a slow motion and his touch was giving electricities in my body. I should move away, but people might no

Chapter: Chapter Two: Sick of You
“Dress up tonight. We are going to a party,” Karlos suddenly said in the middle of our silent dinner.“What?” I said and lifted my face after staring at my plate for a long time. “Party where?”“At Mr. Montero’s engagement party,” he said while casually forking the steak on his plate and chewing it formally. “Your business partner?”“Yes. In three months, he is going to marry his fiance who is pregnant and we are also invited to their wedding.”I pouted. “Do we really have to go?”“Of course,” he immediately said. “You are going to be a CEO after your MBA in your dad’s company, Minerva. Mr. Montero is one of your powerful business partners, so you have to coordinate and get to know him very well. He is also a good friend of mine, so you don’t have to worry about anything.”I furrowed my eyebrows and secretly glared at him when he looked at his ringing phone beside his plate. He did not even hesitate just to answer it and excused himself from the table so he could talk to his office s
