Zhe's POV

I froze. My breath hitched as his lips moved against mine—firm yet teasing, like he was testing the waters.

I should push him away.

But damn it, my body betrayed me.

Before I knew it, my fingers had curled around the fabric of his shirt, gripping it tightly as if that was the only thing keeping me grounded.

And just as quickly as he closed the distance, he pulled away.

"Sweet," he muttered, his voice unreadable. His thumb grazed the corner of my lips, wiping away any trace of chocolate left behind.

Then, as if nothing had happened, he leaned back into his seat and started the engine. No smirk. No teasing glint in his eyes. Just a blank expression that made my stomach twist.

I swallowed hard, gripping my seatbelt as I forced myself to breathe.

Nanatili akong nakatulala, trying to process what just happened.

I swallowed hard, feeling the lingering sensation on my lips. Napatingin ako sa kaniya, but he was already focused on the road, his expression blank,

  • Bed Warmer Wife    CHAPTER 12

    Zhe's POVThe morning sun cast a golden glow through the blinds of my café office, yet I barely noticed it. Nakatulala lang ako, staring at the blank pages of my planner, my fingers lightly gripping a pen I had no intention of using.The soft hum of the coffee machine in the distance, the occasional chatter of my staff, at ang mahihinang tunog ng bell sa pinto ng café-lahat iyon, parang wala lang sa akin ngayon. My thoughts were elsewhere, stuck on a conversation from last night."Please, ate... kahit ito lang... please?"Sophie's pleading voice echoed in my head, making my grip on the pen tighten.Na hindi mo siya magugustuhan."Hindi mo iisipin na pwede kayong dalawa.""Hindi mo gugustuhing maging totoo ang kasal niyo."Napapikit ako, taking a shaky breath. It should've been easy to say yes. Dapat hindi ako nagdadalawang-isip. But the fact that I hesitated... What should I expect? I love him since then, since we were-napailing ako at bumuntong-hininga at isinandal ang ulo ko sa lik

    Zhe's POVPagkatapos ng hapunan, unti-unting lumipat ang lahat sa living room para magpahinga. Ngunit habang abala ang iba sa pakikipag-usap, biglang tumayo si Sophie, causing some heads to turn towards her. “I should get going,” mahina niyang sabi habang inaayos ang bag niya. “May kailangan pa akong asikasuhin.” Napatingin ako sa kaniya, kita sa mukha niya ang pilit na ngiti—isang ngiting hindi abot sa mga mata. “Ngayon?” tanong ni Mommy, bahagyang nag-aalala. “Hindi ba puwedeng bukas na lang?” Ngumiti si Sophie at umiling. “It’s urgent po mom.” Alam kong dahilan lang niya ‘yon. I could see the way her fingers trembled slightly as she clutched her purse, the way her eyes darted toward Caleb—who, once again, didn’t spare her a glance. Tumayo siya at nagpaalam sa lahat bago mabilis na lumabas ng bahay. Hindi ko alam kung bakit, pero parang may pumigil sa’kin para hayaan siyang umalis ng gano’n lang. I followed her. Pagdating ko sa labas, nakita kong nakatayo siya sa ta

  • Bed Warmer Wife    CHAPTER 9

    Zhe's POVPagkatapos kong ligpitin ang pinagkainan ko, umakyat ako sa kwarto ko. Hindi ko na lang pinansin ang mga titig nila pagdaan ko sa living room. Bakit kaya dito sila nag-meeting?Nahiga ako sa kama, pero hindi ko mapigilan ang ngiti ko. Ewan, pero ang gaan ng pakiramdam ko ngayon. Parang may kung anong bumalot sa akin na hindi ko maipaliwanag—something warm, something unfamiliar. Damn it, Zhe, bakit ka ngumingiti?Biglang nag-ring ang phone ko, dahilan para mapabalikwas ako ng bangon. Kinuha ko agad ‘yun at napangiti nang makita ang pangalan ni Rain sa screen. Sinagot ko kaagad. "Uy, anong meron?" tanong niya agad. "Bakit ka tumawag kahapon? Anong chika?" "Pasensiya na, alam mo na—" Napairap ako. "Busy ka, halata naman—busy sa pag-abot sa kalangitan tsk tsk." Natawa siya, dahilan para mapairap pa ako lalo. Hay naku, ito talagang babaeng ‘to."Eh sorry na, my dear—sarap eh HAHAHAHA" napangiwi ako. "So what's the chika? Alam ko meron, huwag mo sabihing wala."

  • Bed Warmer Wife     CHAPTER 8

    Zhe's POVI woke up to a familiar scent lingering in my nose. Nahihilo ako at mabigat ang pakiramdam ko, pakiramdam ko rin ay may nakapulupot sa beywang ko. Dahan-dahan akong nagmulat, at nanlaki ang mata ko nang makita ang mukha ni Caleb—his face just inches away from mine. Unan ko ang braso niya, at ang isang kamay niya ay nakapulupot sa beywang ko. He's sleeping peacefully. I gulped. Anong nangyari kagabi? Napapikit ako at pilit na inalala ang nangyari, ngunit wala akong maalala. I stared at his perfect face—his long lashes, his pointed nose, his kissable lips— I swallowed hard at the sight of his slightly parted lips. Who would have thought that this angelic face is a monster in bed? Hahaplusin ko sana ang pisngi niya ngunit pinigilan ko ang sarili ko. Baka magising siya, at hindi ko alam kung paano siya haharapin. Dahan-dahan, habang pigil ang hininga, inalis ko ang braso niyang nakapulupot sa beywang ko. Nagtagumpay naman ako. Dahan-dahan din akong bumaba

    WARNING: R18+ Please read at your own risk.The kiss was like a raging storm, consuming every inch of her being. She was powerless against the onslaught of his lips, his tongue, and his breath. She felt like she was drowning, suffocating in the depths of his embrace.I'm letting him again. It's happening again. Damn Zhe!Suddenly, she was lifted off her feet. She felt Caleb's strong arms wrap around her waist, pulling her closer, as he deepened the kiss. She let out a soft gasp, her body instinctively wrapping around his, as she surrendered to the moment.Her back pressed against the wall, the cool surface providing a stark contrast to the heat of his body.Her body tensed as she felt Caleb's grip tighten around her waist, pulling her even closer to him. His lips continued to move against hers, his tongue tracing the outline of her mouth, seeking entrance.

    Zhe's POVMula pa lang kagabi, hindi na nawala sa isip ko ang sinabi ni Judy.Paulit-ulit iyong tumatakbo sa isip ko. Pinuntahan niya ako sa café dahil hindi pa ako nakakauwi? He never does that before. So why now?Umiling ako at pumikit ng mariin, pilit na tinatanggal ang iniisip ko. I shouldn't even be thinking about him this way. Hindi ako dapat magbigay ng kahulugan sa kahit anong ginagawa niya. Masasaktan lang ako.Napabalik ako sa ulirat nang biglang bumukas ang pinto ng opisina ko."Ma'am Zhe, may naghahanap po sa'yo sa labas," ani Cindy habang sumilip sa pinto.Napakunot ang noo ko. "Sino?""Sophia daw po," dagdag niya.Napatigil ako. Anong ginagawa niya rito?"Tell her, I'll be right there.""Sige po."Pagkaalis ni Cindy ay napabuntong-hininga ako at inayos ang sarili ko. Muli kong tiningnan ang repleksyon ko sa salamin. Good thing tinulungan na naman ako ni Judy na itago ang mga marka ni Caleb. Lumabas ako ng opisina at bago pa man ako makarating sa dining hall, nakita ko n

  • Bed Warmer Wife    CHAPTER 5

    WARNING: R18+ Please read at your own risk.Pagkapasok pa lang ni Zhe sa loob ng kwarto, agad siyang napahinto. Nandoon si Caleb, nakaupo sa gilid ng kama, nakasandal ang isang braso sa tuhod habang ang isa'y nakapatong sa labi na tila nagpipigil ng galit. His dark, piercing eyes locked onto hers the moment she stepped in, sending a chill down her spine. Napalunok siya. Alam niya na. Alam na niya kung ano ang naghihintay sa kanya. "Close the door," his voice was low, dangerously calm. Gusto niyang tumutol, gusto niyang tumakbo, pero wala siyang ibang choice. Kahit hindi niya gustuhin, sinunod niya ito-dahan-dahan niyang isinara ang pinto, ang kaba sa kanyang dibdib ay lumalaki sa bawat segundo. Caleb didn't move, but his gaze never left her. Para siyang mabangis na hayop na nag-aabang ng tamang oras para sumalakay. "With that f*cking man again, huh?" His voice was laced with accusation, resentment dripping from every word. Hindi niya naisip na sasabihin niya iyon agad. Napasing

    Zhe's POVI woke up to the sound of my alarm clock. Bumangon ako agad because it's Monday, and I need to be at the cafe.Sa edad kong ito, I am proud to say na nakapagpatayo na ako ng sarili kong café.I did my morning routine and got dressed. Facing the mirror, I let out a sigh.Paano ko ba itatago 'to?I opened my drawer and searched for a scarf. I found a pink one and wrapped it around my neck, napangiwi ako. I look ridiculous.Nakakainis naman kasi si Caleb. Maybe I should just watch a tutorial on how to cover these up.Kinuha ko ang cellphone ko, sakto namang nag-text si Cindy-ang taong pinagkakatiwalaan ko sa café. Hindi naman kasi gano'n kalaki ang café ko para magkaroon ng manager. Ako na mismo ang nagma-manage dahil wala naman akong ibang pinagkakaabalahan.Pinaalam lang niya na nagbukas na siya ng café. Nag-reply ako na malelate ako nang kaunti dahil may ginagawa pa ako.Pagkatapos kong mag-reply, naghanap ako sa YouTube ng tutorial kung paano takpan ang red marks sa leeg. P
