Sabrina's P.O.V.
ALL this time, I thought Santino's eyes were deep onyx, but I was wrong. A shade of smokey gray orbs twinkled as the light of the night lamp had hit his handsome face.
He's a creep for lying down beside me without my permission, and ang tanging ginawa lang niya for thirty minutes ay tumitig sa mukha ko. I'm trying to distract myself from his presence by scrolling on my I*******m account dahil ayaw naman niyang umalis sa kwarto ko.
"Do you want to cry?" He asked out of the blue.
"Why would I cry?" Binaba ko ang cellphone ko at tinaasan ko siya ng kilay.
"Because you're sad and broken," he stated.
Maybe, it's easy for other people to read me.
Lumapit siya sa akin, "Because your cousin and good-for-nothing ex fucked each other behind your back that's why now, they're having a baby."
"Stop." I warned him.
"You've been together for four years, Sabrina. Ikaw ang pinangakuan ng kasal pero baka hindi naman talaga ikaw ang balak pakasalan?"
"Santino, shut up!" Saway ko sa kanya dahil may point ang mga sinasabi niya.
"Sa tingin mo, kailan kaya sila nagkaroon ng feelings sa isa't-isa?"
Tinalikuran ko siya at nagsimula nanamang magsilabasan ang mga luha ko. Pero pwersahan niya akong iniharap sa kanya and his strong, gigantic arms caged me into a tight, soothing hug. I tried to pushed him away but his body is so firm and rigid.
Mas lalo akong naiyak dahil hindi ko siya maitulak and it frustrates me because his action gives me comfort at this moment. Para akong batang nawawalan ng laruan kaya nagwawala.
"Bwisit ka!" Hindi ako mahilig magmura pero naiinis ako sa kanya at mas naiinis ako kasi napakaiyakin kong tao.
Iniiyakan ko ang mga taong manloloko at walang kwenta katulad ng ex at pinsan ko.
"Ti amo mia moglie," sagot naman niya sa akin.
Nakakaintindi naman ako ng Italian kahit kaunti, 'yong 'Ti amo' nga lang ang naintindihan ko kaya sumagot ako ng, "Makati lang siguro ang itlog mo kaya mo 'yan nasasabi."
He let out an unexpected explosive laugh that sent vibration through his chest. His laughter was a relaxing melody that floated out of nowhere. Napatingala tuloy ako sa kanya. His perfect white teeth were shining and I couldn't stop myself from staring.
"Kapag ipinakamot ko ba sayo, kakamutin mo?" He said in between his masculine laugh.
"Ipakamot ko pa 'yan sa tigre." Ipinikit ko na ang aking mga mata. Hinagod niya ang aking likod hanggang sa hilain ako ng antok.
MY DEEP sleep was interrupted by a very warm air coming from someone. Someone who is breathing between my legs without consent. My eyes are heavy but I really pulled up my lashes to look at Santino's head.
Is this a sexual dream? If yes, maybe I should let myself enjoy it and wake up later. He planted a few kisses on my inner thighs. His huge, calloused palms caress my legs as he dived into my core still covered with my comfortable seamless underwear. His lips squeezed and smacked my vulva through my thin panty and it instantly gives my body shock waves of happiness every time he repeats the said motion.
He teases me and makes me feel like I want to remove the only fabric that hinders him to eat me whole.
So, I did.
I slowly pulled down the waistband of my panty while I lifted my hips a little, hoping that he would acknowledge the invitation.
Santino's lips slowly stretched into a sensual grin and his onyx orbs looked up at me with full of naughtiness as he stuck his tongue flat, steady, and ready to dig in against my wet pussy cat. My body quickly reacts with the pressure that he's offering my folds.
I let myself savour the pleasure and hot licks he's giving me. It started gentle but I moaned for more of him. I want to let myself be sexually needy because this is all just a dream. So I'll be real.
Perhaps, I'm really erotically attracted to him and I just buried the truth deep down in my unconscious. Nothing is wrong with that, right?
He's a good-looking manhwa main character, after all. There's nothing wrong with being a slut because I'm freaking single.
I dragged his hair down and rubbed my womanhood to his mouth so that he could have full access. I cried his name and begged.
"Santino oh please please...please," my heart rate is racing against its own normal pace, and my pussy is pumping like a drum as Santino gives it a wild French kiss with additional licks and sucks.
Then, my dream turned into a horror movie when my Papa knocked on my door, "Sabrina hija, malelate ka na sa trabaho gising na."
"Fuck!" Nanlaki ang mga mata ko at napalingon sa pinto. Para akong nabuhusan ng tubig na puro yelo.
My dad knocked again. Napatingin ako kay Santino na nasa gitna ng hita ko. He didn't flinch or even look bothered by the idea that my father is outside and behind my door.
I forcefully pushed his head away from my pulsing pussy. But he pulled back and continued eating me. Now, he manoeuvres his tongue faster and rough, hitting every sensitive spot of mine.
"Papa, I'm awake just..." oh God, ang hirap magpigil ng ungol. Nahirapan ako makahinga ng maayos,"Just give me five minutes...Papa—"
Itinago ko ang mukha ko sa unan para makaungol ng maayos dahil mas lalong bumilis ang dila at bibig niya sa pagalaw lalo na't inanggat niya ang aking balakang at mahigpit na hinawakan para hindi ako makapalag.
"Sabrina, are you alright?" My Papa asked.
"Yes..." it came out almost a moan.
At some point, the danger and the excitement of being caught flooded my head. It scares me yet, I can see fun out of it.
Narinig ko ang papalayong yabag ni Papa maya-maya lamang at kasabay rin nito ang pagsabog ko sa bibig mismo ni Santino.
He sipped all the fluid caused by my orgasm at tsaka siya pumatong sa akin, brushing his nose opposite to mine.
"Good morning, Kitten," and he slammed his erect cock inside me with full force.
He let out a devilish chuckle as he examined my pleased reaction. Damn this guy, I can't cover up my hidden desire towards him.
"Malelate na ako--ohhh fuck!"
"So ayaw mo na?" Tanong niya na may halong pang-aasar.
Pero hindi ako makasagot dahil napakatraydor ng katawan ko.
"Do you want me to stop, kitten?" He drives me faster this time. In and out.
I nodded expecting him to stop, but what he did next just triggered the fire between our nakedness. He spread my legs wider by pushing my knees to my shoulders, "wrong answer, kitten."
A continuous cry of glee travels out from my lungs as he thrust endlessly and full of determination. He's sweating but his tempo is still unstoppable, and rough.
He never stopped. He's not planning to let me go not until our bodies had reached the same destination and he injected all his spermatic load inside my body.
All of it.
Hinihingal kaming dalawa pagkatapos. Bumagsak siya sa aking katawan at pinulupot ang kanyang mga braso sa akin.
Tsaka naman ulit bumalik si Papa para katukin ang aking pinto.
"Anak, tanghali na." Kasabay ng tatlong katok.
"Nakabihis na po. Susunod ako agad sa baba, Pa," pagsisinunganling ko. Buti ay naniwala ang aking ama at agad ring umalis.
"Pretty liar," Santino blurted out while his face was glued on my neck, sniffing my scent and smiling.
"Tama na. Nakaisa ka na," Pagsusungit ko sa kanya at tinulak ko siya paalis sa ibabaw ko para makapunta na ako sa banyo at makaligo agad.
Mabilis akong naligo at kumuha ng office attire sa closet. Pagkalabas ko ng banyo ay wala na si Santino na siyang ipinagpapasalamat ko. There's a part of me that is comfortable when his shadow is around the corner, pero hindi tama. Hindi ito tama. I'm broken and vulnerable as of now. Ayokong mandamay ng iba.
May isang paper na nakatupi sa gitna ng kama. Pinulot ko ito at binuksan ngunit, walang nakasulat ni isang letra. Binali-baliktad ko ito pero wala naman talaga. Itatapon ko na sana nang nasinagan ito ng araw at may sunod-sunod na letrang umaangat.
Sulat:
Buongiorno, la mia vita.
'Salur D’Amour'
-----------------------Hindi ko man naintindihan ang una niyang sinabi pero nagkaroon naman ako ng ideya na gusto niyang tugtugin ko ang violin piece ni Edward Elgar entitled Salur D’Amour mamaya dahil nga may usapan kaming pagkatapos ng trabaho ko ay araw-araw ko siyang tutogtugan ng violin.
Santino's P.O.V.Tinawagan ko agad ang CHRO ng kompanya pagkasakay ko ng sasakyan using my laptop and an application na only company employees lang ang dapat may access, "I want you to terminate all female employees today."
"Ho?!" Fonda, the Chief Human Resource officer, responded in disbelief.
"Should I repeat what I said?" My declaration remained cold.
"Pati po ba ako, Sir?" Kinakabahang tanong ni Fonda.
"Malamang."
I turned the call off without waiting for Fonda's reply. Call me wildly unreasonable, illogical, or my action is inappropriate, but I don't want Sabrina to get jealous. Hindi ko siya bibigyan ng rason para magselos o iwan ako.
I WAS busy refining the shapes and forms of my new sculpture made out of oil-based clay when Nazar, my half-brother entered my sculpting studio.
"Nabalitaan kong pinatanggal mo daw ang mga babaeng empleyado mo?"
Hindi ko siya sinagot dahil busy ako sa pagtapos ng aking ginagawa.
"That's harsh, kuya."
"I don't want my wife to overthink." I replied shortly.
"Oh, Sabrina isn't it?" He tapped his white cane against the vinyl tiles, "The drugs inside the chocolate were effective, I guess." He mumbled.
"I didn't put any drugs in those chocolates if that's what you're thinking. It's exclusively for her only. I will never take advantage of her weakness," I spat back and was taken aback for a few seconds, "How did you know that we ate—"
"Because, I did." He cuts me off.
"Che vuoi dire?"
"I sprinkled a little bit of drugs in those chocolates," May papilantik pa ang kamay niya na parang nag sprinkle ng kung ano sa hangin and he smiled at my direction. A smile of playfulness and wickedness.
Ibinato ko sa kanya ang ginagawa ko at patapos ko na sanang eskultura. Tatama dapat ito sa kanyang mukha pero iniiwas niya ang kanyang ulo at nadaplisan lamang ang kanyang tenga. Dumaloy ang dugo agad mula dito pero hindi niya ito ininda. Nazar has faster reflexes than me, but ever since he got blind because of an accident, he needs to remaster his skills.
"You should thank me, Fratello." Nakangiting sabi niya, "She never noticed you or marrying you would never cross her mind. You already crossed paths thousands of times but you got nothing."
"Get out."
"Sa tingin mo kuya mamahalin ka niya? She's broken and four years is too long to beat."
"Mind your own bullshit, Nazar!"
Tumalikod na siya pero tumigil siya maya-maya sabay tawa nanaman, "I'm just kidding, kuya. Masyadong mainitin ulo mo. Wala akong nilagay na droga," Bawi niya, sabay dagdag, "May that kind of love finds me too," He murmured.
Akala niya siguro hindi ko narinig ang huli niyang sinabi.
"Nasayo na, pinatalo mo lang." Sermon ko sa kanya.
"Hindi siya dapat ang naghahabol kuya dahil siya ang babae, ako dapat ang maghabol." Sagot naman niya pabalik.
"Kapag hindi ka na bulag tsaka ka maghabol ng babae."
__________Santino's P.O.V. A Few Years Ago... They say love finds you when you least expect it. I was at the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua, Italy—not to find love, only to collect a debt. The priest owed more than what he prayed for. I came to negotiate with my shining blade, and when he tried to escape our deal, I stabbed him in the waist until he bled—unbothered by the tourists visiting the holy chapel. In front of God, His angels, and saints, I killed a priest. Then she appeared. A magnetic wave of innocence. A girl with a baby pink scarf wrapped around her throat like a whisper. It fluttered to the ground, and I caught it. "Ti è caduto questo," I called out. She glanced at me, seemingly bewildered by what I said, but managed to smile when she saw me holding her scarf. "Oh, thank you!" It was the kind of smile that could gut a man from the inside. And it gutted me. My heart went berserk. I watched her roam the chapel with her boyfriend, who later disappeared with her cousin behind a co
Sabrina's P.O.V.MAAGA akong nagising para tulungan si lola Milagros sa kabilang bahay na magluto at magbalot ng kakanin. Para akong seesaw na nahirapan bumangon dahil sa laki na ng aking tiyan."Kapit lang anak, kailangang magtrabaho ni mama para may kikitain ngayong araw," itinungkod ko ang aking mga braso para makaupo ng maayos sa papag na gawa sa kahoy.No'ng hindi pa gaanong malaki ang tiyan ko, minsan nagpa-part time ako sa may Barangay Hall bilang isang encoder tapos sa weekends lang ako nakakatulong kay lola Milagros na magbenta ng mga kakanin."Magpahinga ka na lang muna hija at baka mabinat ka sa daan manganak ka pa ng wala sa oras," bilin ni Lola nang matapos na kaming magbalot ng kakanin at akmang bubuhatin ko na ang isang bilao."Okay lang ho La, kayang-kaya ko ito." Masiglang tugon ko at dere-deretsong lumabas ng bahay para maglako sa bawat bahay muna bago kami makapunta sa pwesto ni lola sa palengke."Suman! Kakanin! Biko! Puto! Mainit-init pa, bili na kayo!" Sigaw ko.
8 months later...Santino's P.O.V.SABRINA is my wife and always will be. She is my golden sun in a sky that never stopped storming. She was the only breath my lungs recognized and take. The calm in my madness. The last piece of peace I had left.However, Elijah Irving, that old bastard who doesn't even have the Moschelli's blood in his veins, ripped her from this world. Stole her life. Stole my only reason to play the nice Saint in the land of the living.He didn't just terminate her, he declared war on the only part of me that was still tamed and human."He left me with nothing. Now, I'll return a more painful favour," I mumbled to myself, setting up my long, gleaming black Barrett sniper rifle on the rooftop of an abandoned high-rise building. I took aim at their house, exactly 250 yards away.They were having a wedding anniversary party, a celebration that I will never experience. All of them were there: Elijah, his wife, his grown-ass children, and his mistress, who had been his
Santino's P.O.V.DRAGGING myself out of bed in the morning is always a challenge, especially when there's nothing to look forward to. Last night, I dreamed about my late wife. Our wedding day played over and over in my mind like a loop."Good morning, Vita Mia!" Bati ko sa litrato ng aking asawa at hinalikan ito. Yakap-yakap ko itong binitbit papuntang dining area. Humila ako ng upuan para makaupo ito ng matiwasay tsaka ako naghanda ng agahan. Dalawang kape, sa akin walang creamer na black coffee samantalang sa kanya ay may mas madaming sugar at may creamer because my sweet Sabrina hates too bitter kind of coffee. Tsaka ako nagluto ng oatmeal na may toppings ng strawberries."Sir, kami na pong magluluto para sainyo." Alok ng isang butler nang makita ako nitong nagluluto."Hindi na, gusto kong ipagluto ang asawa ko ng agahan kaya hindi na kailangan."Tinitigan ako saglit ng butler tsaka alanganing tumango.Abala akong naghahanda at naghahanap pa ng iba pang pang-umagahan nang dumating
SABRINA'S P.O.V.NAGISING ako dahil sa ingay ng biik na nasa tabi ko na inaamoy-amoy ang aking mukha. Malinis ang mga biik dahil mula no'ng nanganak si Porky ilang linggo na ang nakakaraan, lagi ko silang pinapakain, nililinisan ang bahay nila at pinapaliguan."Magandang araw, Peachy!" Niyakap ko ito. Siya ang pinaka-clingy sa lahat ng biik ni Porky. Bumaba ako ng kama habang bitbit siya at dumeretso sa kusina para maghanda ng umagahan.Ewan ko ba, parang nawiwili ako sa pag-aalaga ng hayop tsaka, tumutulong rin ako sa gawain sa bukid para naman may exercise ako kahit papaano. Nagbabalak nga pala akong maghanap ng trabaho dito sa probinsya para may pandagdag pangastos."Good morning, mahal na Reyna!" Pagkatapos na pagkatapos ng pagsusulit sa paaralan, umuwi agad dito sa La Piedrosa si Zero at madalas akong binibisita."Good morning!" Binati ko ang bata habang nag-aayos ng suman at gatas na agahan. Itinigil ko ang pag-inom ng kape dahil mas-healthy kapag laging gatas ang iniinom ko, la
SABRINA'S P.O.V.SARIWANG HANGIN, matatatas na puno at maliit ngunit, lubak-lubak na daan. Nagdesisyon akong sumama at magtago muna sa lugar nila manong Nimuel. Kahit na hindi ko sila lubos na pinagkakatiwalaan dahil sa ginawa niya noong mga nakaraang araw, ay hindi naman siguro masama ang magbigay ng isa pang pagkakataon and besides, binigyan ako nila Draga ng isang bodyguard. Mukhang dikit rin ang anak niya sa aking si Zero.Hindi ko akalaing, kakayanin kong sumuntok ng lalaki hanggang sa magka-black eye ito at nagawa kong manuhol ng Jollibee sa pamilya niya para lang makapasok sa bahay nila at pagbataan si Manong Nimuel na papatayin ko ang pamilya niya kung hindi niya sasabihin ang plano ng tiyo ni Santino. Desperado lang akong magkaroon ng kwenta bilang tao para sa taong mahal ko at ngayon, magtatago ako hindi dahil may nagawa si Santino na mali, kung hindi dahil ayokong maging pabigat sa kanya. Kailangan ko ring protektahan muna ang anak namin kaya ako lalayo at magtatago mula s
