He was frustrated after that show in the room. Andromeda is emotionless and leaves quickly but her grandfather orders his people not to let her away. It was his fault after all. He wasn't good enough for her. And now it seemed like fate was playing on them and wanted both of them to be together again.
Zachary is about to pick up his cigarette. Back then, he disliked it. He wasn't a big fan of smoking. But after that big incident that happened two years ago, he just couldn't help himself but be a rebel of his own. He brought the stick between his lips and was about to light it when her voice rang into his head.
Go ahead, grandpa. I'm tired of living.
He put down the lighter and the cigarette. He threw it on the ashtray. He turned around and was about to storm out the patio when Andrew showed up. His half-brother. Hands in his pockets and he looks cool as always. He remembered back that he's so into her.
"Since she doesn't want to marry you, perhaps I could persuade the old man to let me marry her?" he gritted his teeth. There's no way that he'll let that happen. He chuckled amused at his brother's reaction. He calmed himself down.
"I'll marry her," he spoke without any hesitation. Amusement was all over Andrew's face. He stepped closer to his brother.
"But you think she'll let that happen after what you did two years ago?" He acted so insolent and liked thinking or flashing back something in his mind just to peeve his brother. "I guess, she'll rage in anger."
He has no time to get angry with his brother. After all, there's no breaking of engagement. He was the one who made a mistake. Both of them are still immature. Both of them are still fazed by the thought of a fairy tale. But today is a reality and not a simple game.
Kathleen came with a glass of martini. She smiled at them and offered the glass to Zachary. Zachary took it and drank it all at once. He stormed out and started searching for her. And there he found her in the garden on the swing with a bottle of whiskey in her hand. He made his steps faster until he hit a bottle on the grass.
Picking it up, he looked at the expensive bottle of whiskey. She probably sneaked it out from her grandpa's. She swigged the bottle and finished it all. He finally walked in front of her, stopping the swing from swinging. She looked up at him. Full of tears and her eyes show despair. She stood up, almost outbalanced but held her arm and she ran to the bushes and started vomiting. He held her and patted her back.
He picked her up and brought her to her room on the left-wing away from the people. He removed her jacket and she winced.
"Ow!" she pushed him and he frowned on the bandage around her right arm.
"What have you been doing to yourself?!" he couldn't help but scowl at a drunk woman. She didn't say a thing but fell down on the bed. She moaned and rubbed herself on the fluffy bed.
He called a butler to bring honeyed water. He removed his jacket and suddenly felt dizzy. Why does he feel dizzy and hot? He was burning inside and suddenly it didn't feel right. The butler came and he took two bottles of water with honey on them. He closed the door, flipped her slowly, and woke her.
"Drink." She did drink the glass of water and she removed her sleeveless shirt. He gulped some water seeing her like that.
Since it's her hobby of stripping whenever she's drunk, he gets used to it but somehow everything is different now. They make love whenever she's drunk or both of them. He went to her bathroom, removed his clothes, and took a cold shower. Damn, his manhood is erect. Could it be the drink that Kathleen gave to him? He doesn't remember at all but he couldn't take this shit until she went to the bathroom half asleep, took a pee, and removed her clothes.
This is not even good at all. He was totally turned on. He got out of the shower and was about to reach her. But she strode out and went back to bed. He exhales, still burning up.
"Damn you, Andromeda!" he growls and strode to her bed, kissing her lips, crushing it. She responded a bit but pushed him after. "Fuck!" he cursed aloud and get back to the bathroom and stood in front of a shower for a long time until it slowly cooled down. He has to do something about his erection so what's the use of his hand and mind?
Once that he's done spoiling himself. He put his boxers dry himself and picked a towel and washed it. Then he wiped her whole body and her midsection like he's used to doing it to her. He then picked something in her closet and put it on her. His dizziness didn't make him last long until he collapsed beside her. He heard her murmuring and sobbing slowly in her sleep. It aches his heart. Though he was getting lifeless, he reached her face and then wrapped his strong arms around her. It was his fault after all.
Kathleen has been searching for him all over the place around the mansion. She's afraid that someone had taken him and fuck him instead of her. Damn it. So much for framing him up so she could persuade her grandfather to make him marry her instead.
"Where's Zach?" she suddenly asked the butler that was passing by.
"I saw him with Lady Andy. She seemed drunk."
"What?!" She exclaimed and suddenly lowered her voice. She wanted to storm to Andromeda's room and teach a lesson on the slut. But what if Zach is there too? She will be embarrassed.
"You seemed exasperated." Andrew noticed. She rolled her eyes and stormed out. He only laughed and shook his head.
She went to her mother Paula and started complaining that Andromeda was just pretending to run off with Zach. She's desperate. She never thought that her grandfather would seriously want Andromeda to marry Zach, the love of her life. She only wanted him. Only him.
"Hush now sweetheart. I am sure that it won't take long until the engagement." She comforted her.
Everything she desired would be hers. That's her goal when she was born. She hated Andromeda, the apple of the eye of their grandfather. Though her father had shared the company and had his own business that was turned over to him by his father, it wasn't enough for her. She wanted more than that.
Ellen heard it from close by. Since she's the only daughter of Rafael Pattinson, she was a spoiled brat. But she wasn't as insatiable as Kathleen. She was just spoiled by her brothers and she loved them dearly. She knows everything about Zach, her favorite brother after all and his happiness comes first before hers. And if Kathleen was one of the barriers, then she will have to step in and teach the bitch a lesson.
She bumped into a big chest that made her step back and hands up looking directly at the man's face.
"Hey, watch out dude!" She said it was cool. She creased her brow when he creased his brow as well as studying her face and looked at her from head to toe. "Could you please—move!" The man was familiar but she doesn't remember him.
"What the hell are you doing here, Mondragon?" She bit her lower lip. The guy was so manly, dark complex, eyes tantalizing, brow thick, lips a little thick, the face was rectangular… so charming.
"Well, I am here standing in front of you." She said sardonically. "Wait—how do you know—" she snapped her fingers when she finally realized who he was. But still, she couldn't dig in her thoughts about his name. He wrapped his arm around her neck and dragged her away from the front door. "Hey!"
"You grow up so fast." He messed up her hair. In automatic movement, she grabbed his wrist and twisted it on his back but he's fast as well and pulled her to him.
"Get off Pattinson!" she hissed at him.
"Your grandfather has been searching for you all over the world. He even asked his agents."
"Really?" she stopped restraining from him and that she stopped herself from staggering.
"Are you taking me to him?"
"Not right now." She grinned and quickly restrained herself from him and she jumped on his back. He exhaled and held her thigh.
"Let's go to the nearest club."
"I am not here to babysit someone like you." But he kept her on his back. He will totally cancel his appointments. She's the long-lost childhood friend and James, her brother, was close to him. He bit his lower lip. Her chest felt so soft pressing on his back. How did this girl grow up so fast? Back then, she was running around in combat shoes that are only made for her and practicing archery then martial arts. Her grandfather shaped her up into a beautiful woman.
"What are you doing here in Greece by the way?"
"I'm here for some business…"
"Yeah?" she yawned and leaned on his shoulder.
"What are you doing? Sleeping?"
Instead of going to the club, he turned to his hotel suite. She's already asleep and he removed her shoes and jacket. She reached some pillow and moaned and cuddled on it. Just seeing her like that makes him smile. Who would have thought that the cute girl who was doted on by everyone would be a woman, attractive and very much sexy?
"Andy, do you still love me?" Zachary asked as he lovingly reached for her face and caress her lips with his thumb.Andromeda's eyes widens, surprised by his question. She puts down the fork that she's holding, turns her face away from him and takes the table napkin as she gracefully wipes her mouth. "I'm done.""Andy," He took her chin and turns it again to him. "I l—""We aren't going to fuck." She stood and left the dining room. She went to the kitchen and took a bottle of water and strode upstairs.Her heart was pounding as she recalled it in her mind. There's no doubt in her heart and in her mind that she loves him so much. She drank the water and took a warm shower, standing there and letting the water run on her body.Andy felt his hand behind her reaching her hips. He hugged her from behind and shoved his face on the crook of her neck."Andy, love me." He whispers. She shudders and feels the surge of passion run through her whole body. "What should I do for you to forgive me?
Zach clenches his fist when she sees her almost get hit by a car. Someone helped her and he can't just run all the way to her since cars are running in front of him. He saw the man hold her and hug her then throw his arms around her. The man was quite familiar, but he felt so jealous at that moment.Damn it. If Andy still loves him, she would get jealous but there's no hint of jealousy. Would he work it out for her to get jealous? He loves her so much, although it's been two years since he left her. He regrets now that he left her and didn't face their problems together. Back then, it wasn't like that. Zach remembers when they are in Greece and they are starting their relationship. It was her first time to be in a romantic relationship. Zach never thought that he would fall this hard even though they are just playing around."Let's go to Amazon." She said."What?" He creased his brows a little. "What are you going to do there?"She crawled on top of him and snuggled on his chest. He
Kathleen has been visiting Damien's studio wishing if she could peek at Andromeda's gown. But not a single choice. It seems that Damien is working with something else. She tried to peek on it or even try a few gowns to interrupt Damien, but he declined her and said that he had meetings.Kathleen did everything but damn it. Why can't she just beat her own cousin? She already saw her other cousin's gown. Sabrina who is now married to Gabriel Lawson. It has real gems and it became her dream to wear such a gown. She left the studio and went to meet her friends. She and Andromeda are at the same age and they are in the same batch. One of her friends is an alumni President and now planning for their reunion in three months."Your cousin, Andy." Her friend's name Rhian started. "She's getting married to Pattinson, right?""Yeah, why?""Zach Pattinson was our heartthrob. Is he going with her?""Is Zach really what you wanted or Percy, her brother?" Kathleen said. "They won't even like an inc
Andy dressed up like her usual outfit and let Zach take her to the rendezvous."We have EPUA's agent?" Andy murmurs. "Where are my agents?" "Well, Sabrina said that you need bodyguards. Your grandpa sent Lucas and two agents." He said. "Are you happy now?""Yeah. But I am not really that happy. Sabrina's agents are the best of the best, unlike my soldiers.""Your Soldiers are for wars." He said and reached for her hand. She slid her hand away and looked out the window. The car started running all the way to the rendezvous.It was quiet as they traveled but Zach wanted to break the silence. When they are travelling together, they won't be quiet. They are always talking about random stuff and singing together and flirting together. But this is different and somehow—he felt odd."Our wedding is in three days. I settled our honeymoon in Palawan. Is that okay with you?""No. Don't bother about settling honeymoon places." She mutters. "We aren't going to fuck anyway."Zach was silent and l
Andromeda met Sabrina who has been a little depressed because her husband was out of the country and will be away for a few more days. They stop by the Italian restaurant and eat a little. After eating, they readied themselves with Sabrina's driver to visit a few bars around.The most exclusive bar was Elite Bar which her cousin owns but they didn't go there. They wanted to enjoy somewhere else and get drunk without getting monitored around. When they were ready, they went to one of the bars where big time people are partying. Well most of them are from politician families and whatever they get into—they both don't care. Sabrina only drinks a little and lets Andromeda get drunk. She's broken-hearted and everyone might be judging her, yet she doesn't care at all. What she cared about was Zach and what he thought about her.Andromeda started drinking on the bar counter requesting for more while Sabrina just let her and then took her to the nearest seat. The music isn't that wild. It wa
Zach convinced Andy to sign the charges against Mr. Valez and they went home. Zach followed her to their bedroom and watched her remove her shoes gracefully. Although she looked exhausted, she still knew how to seduce him.Zach leaned on the wall and watched her remove the silver gown. She was indeed just wearing a G-string. Zach removed his bow tie and his shirt to follow her. He grabbed her hips and pressed his body to the back of hers. He held her bare breasts and kissed her shoulders. "You are so scandalous." He muttered sexily and twisted her so he could see her whole body. There were changes and her scars were gone. He caressed her chest with the back of his long fingers down to her stomach line.Andy felt so bold, so beautiful and so sexy in front of him. She wanted him so bad, but she didn't want to have sex with him. But it was still safe. A few days ago she went to her doctor to receive shots so she wouldn't get pregnant even though they were fcking.His breathing hitched.
