"Mommy?"I immediately pushed Nabrel when I heard that familiar small voice.I saw Vendrick who was peeking from the door. I did not even notice that it has been opened!I cleared my throat before I glanced at Nabrel who had his hands on his hips as he brushed his fingers through his hair.I stood up and went to Vendrick."What are you doing, Mommy? Who's that? And why is it so dark in here? Where's Daddy?" I carried him and turn on the lights. Vendrick's innocent eyes drifted immediately to Nabrel.Nabrel was simply staring at us. He had this unreadable expression. His lips were pressed into a thin line. "Why is there a stranger in your room, Mommy?" Vendrick was kitting his forehead as he studied Nabrel. "Who are you?""I am your real father," Nabrel uttered in a cold voice that made my eyes widened.He pouted when he saw my reaction."What? But my father is Davien De Loughrey. Mommy, do I have two fathers also?" The kid was beyond confused when he looked at me, waiting for confi
I was staring at the ceiling all night. There was a small voice inside my head, making me realized the things I mindlessly said to Nabrel a couple of hours ago.I closed my eyes tightly as I flipped my body on the bed.Why did I say that? And now, I can't even sleep because of regret I am feeling.I pushed the comforter away from my body and got off the bed. My steps were fast as I went out of the room. I did not even knock in the guestroom where he was. A dark room welcomed my sight. It was cold because of the air conditioner. I gently closed the door.I bit my lower lip as I walked carefully towards the bed. I saw his silhouette through the dark. He was laying on his stomach. I could even hear his breathing.My heart clenched painfully whenever I think about the things that I have said to him. I never wanted to say those words. I never wanted him to hear those from me.I laid beside him. I wrapped my arm around his waist as I buried my face on his neck. He moved slightly. I remaine
My eyes went to the door when it opened. One of Sylvan's men entered with a tray in his hand. Like usual, he did not say anything to me as he silently put the tray on the table. I just watched him as I remained sitting on the cold floor, breathing heavily.I swallowed hardly as I felt my stomach growling. I can’t wait to eat whatever is in that tray. I just wish it is not some disgusting rat or anything. When the man left, I immediately stood up and almost ran like a desperate dog towards the small table. I gasped when a steak, rice and some broccoli were on the plate.Without thinking anything, I sat on the chair and ate like I have not eaten in years. I closed my eyes as the taste of the steak played in my tongue. It tastes so good. It was so soft. I can’t believe Sylvan gave me this food after making me ate a fucking rat.I was so full. I finished all the food. I did not even leave even a single grain of rice. That is how hungry I was.As I put down the glass of water on the table
“D-Don Sylvan….” The man whispered with so much fear in his voice.My lips parted when I saw Sylvan’s reddening face as he glared at us.Fear crept in my skin when I saw the rage and disgust in his face when he looked at me. I swallowed, not being able to know what to do. Suddenly, I lost my ability to produce any words from my mouth as my eyes remained on his hard feature. His steps were heavy and full of authority as he walked towards the man.“I-I am sorry-“Before the man could even finish his sentence, Sylvan pulled his gun from his pocket and shot the man in the head. I gasped as my eyes widened when I saw the blood spurting out from the man’s head. I was beyond horrified as I watched the scene infront of me.Mindlessly, I took a step back slowly, scared that I would catch Sylvan’s attention. I was trembling miserably as I watched the man fell like a paper on the cold dirty floor.Tears fell down my cheeks as I screamed loudly when I saw the man’s eyes. They were opened and they
The door shut loudly. I remained sitting on the floor. I glared at the door where he vanished. That asshole. He thinks he can the rule the world. He thinks he is better than anyone. He is so full of himself. If I was crazy over him before, well that was before! I feel nothing but hatred towards him now. I do not even know why he thinks I will let him touch me, let alone fuck me.I fell asleep on the floor without me even realizing it. I woke up with a sore body all over. I winced at the pain as I tried to stretch my body. God, I need a bed. Even a small fucking bed with a thin mattress. Or even if it is just a matter alone! I do not know how long I can take this. I always wake up with a sore body every damn morning. It feels like I have been in an intense fight!I was shocked to see few clothes on the table. They were all the same. Huge black shirt and some brand new panties. No bra. Not that I needed a bra but why did he give me any? He wants me to parade my tits?I rolled my eyes at
Memorize poured in my head like a heavy rain as I cried out painfully."What do you want to do with your life, Nalya?! Your grades are disgraceful! I hired a goddamn tutor for you, right?! But why the hell is this still happening?!" my father, Lavino Monselorette exclaimed angrily. We were in the library. I was not even listening to him. I'm so tired of his unending lectures!I saw how my class card crumpled in his hand. I avoided his blazing eyes. I feel like any minute now, he could lift his hand up and swing it across my face. My gaze dropped on my lap and unconsciously played with my fingers. I should not have shown him my grades. I had readied myself from whatever his reaction would be. It is always like this. I do not even know why he was still disappointed when in the first place, he should not be considering I have never shown him a better grades. And I, myself, never even expected to get a good grades!My father should know that! His daughter is stupid!I flinched in my seat
As soon as I woke up, I mentally listed the things that I can do today. I have been staying here for two weeks now but I have not done any meaningful things. This is totally hell. I do not know what to do anymore aside from eating, sleeping, video call my boyfriend or workout. Even walking on the shore does not sound very pleasing to me. I always stay at the mansion.Should I learn how to swim? Go to the near island? I thought of visiting the island that my father had bought for my mom. But how will I go there? For sure there's someone from here who can accompany me there, right? But I think this is not the perfect day to visit that island.Good thing that our mansion has beautiful intricate details. I have something to look at that's worth my time.Our mansion was substantial and modern stylish. The windows were high ground-floor and well lighted. The roof was rectangular flat. There was also a huge and open-air swimming pool. Around the pool was a grassy area dotted with pine trees.
"I miss you so much, babe..." Davien sighed heavily. I smiled weakly as I stared at his face longingly. He was still on his bed. His hair was disheveled, eyes were still a bit hoody, indicating that he just woke up."I miss you too. Why don't you come here? I heard that your sister, is here in Belleza Eterna?""I can't. For now, I think I won't be able to visit you, babe. My dad gave me a work and he wants me to finish it in one month. And Nalya is just a kid, babe. We don't get along that much." "Hmmm...""What are you going to do today?" Davien asked tenderly. "Uhm, today... I'm gonna have my tour with someone who's a resident here as my tour guide." I giggled out of excitement."That's a good idea. Show me your pictures, okay?"I bit my lip and nodded. "Yeah...""Have you decided if you're gonna learn how to swim? Sure thing, locals of Belleza Eterna know how to swim. You can ask someone to be your swim instructor.""I'm still thinking about that. Or I probably won't. I don't kno
