Deadline:The Billionaire Who Loved Me On Borrowed Time Chapter 15: Poisoned Devotion (James)
"Kailangan mong ubusin ang soup na ito, Kuya James, kasi galing pa ito sa paborito mong luto ni Mama noong bata pa tayo," the sweet, drippingly toxic voice of Andrea rings out across my private dining table, slicing through the tense air of the estate like a hidden blade.I sit rigidly in my high-backed leather chair, staring down at the steaming ceramic bowl of clear broth she has just personally ladled out for me. Andrea flashes a bright, sisterly smile, her eyes glittering with a sickeningly sweet warmth that has always masked the cold, calculating snake hiding underneath. She stands right beside my elbow, playing the part of the devoted, grieving step-sister who is deeply worried about my rapidly deteriorating health. But as I inhale the steam rising from the bowl, my internal organs begin to twist in violent agony, sending a searing wave of heat down my throat that feels less like nourishment and more like liquid fire burning straight through my stomach lining.My hand trembles s

"Ano ba ang pumasok sa isip mo para suungin ang kwarto ko nang ganito kagabi, Ciara?" the rough, gravelly rasp of my morning voice shatters the tense silence of my heavily restricted bedroom as my eyes snap open to an unfamiliar wave of warmth.I blink against the piercing morning light filtering through the heavy drapes, my entire body aching like it's been run over by a freight train, but my breath instantly catches in my throat. I am not staring at the cold, empty ceiling I usually wake up to. Instead, my bleary gaze falls upon a slumped figure curled up tightly in the oversized leather armchair beside my mahogany bed. Ciara's face is pressed against the plush armrest, her dark curls tumbling in disarray over her shoulders, her fingers still loosely clenching a damp, lukewarm compress that she must have been holding against my burning forehead all night long.The air locks in my lungs as a violent rush of raw, unadulterated emotion rips through the wreckage of my chest. She broke e

"Bakit ba kailangan mong gawin ito, James? Hindi ako preso!" the sharp ring of Ciara's voice cuts through the quiet morning air of the estate gates like a fresh wound, echoing off the towering stone pillars that mark the perimeter of my isolated world.I clench my jaw so hard my back teeth ache, my knuckles turning stark white as I grip the cold iron rails of the security gate. I stare down at the young local vendor standing dangerously close to her, my chest constricting with a suffocating fury. The kid is holding a woven basket of fresh mangoes, flashing a goofy, nervous grin at Ciara that makes my blood boil hot and fast beneath my skin. My heart slams against my ribs, not just from the lingering shadow of the disease eating away at my organs, but from a blinding, possessive rage that whispers a dark, terrifying warning: Mine. Papatayin ko ang sinumang lumapit sa kanya. I didn't spend the last decade building an impregnable fortress just to watch some random punk flash a sweet smil
Deadline:The Billionaire Who Loved Me On Borrowed Time Chapter 12: Sweet Vulnerability on Marble (Ciara's POV)
"Kainin mo 'tong strawberry tart na ginawa ko kung ayaw mong ako mismo ang magpapakain sa 'yo, James."Inilagay ko nang may kaunting lakas ang glass plate sa ibabaw ng kulay-abong marble kitchen counter habang nakapamewang na nakatitig sa lalaking nakaupo sa tall bar stool. Napakapuim ng kanyang hitsura, soot ang kanyang navy blue silk robe, ngunit ang pamumutla ng kanyang balat at ang madilim na kalaliman sa ilalim ng kanyang mga mata ay hindi maikakaila." I am not in the mood for sugar, Ciara," malamig niyang wika habang hindi man lang itinataas ang kanyang tingin mula sa iPad kung saan nagbabasa siya ng mga stock market reports. " At huwag mo akong utusan sa sarili kong kusina.""Pwes, manigas ka riyan dahil hindi ako aalis sa harap mo hangga't hindi mo nauubos 'yan!" sigaw ko sabay agaw sa iPad mula sa kanyang kamay at mabilis itong itinago sa likod ng aking balakang. "Kanina ka pa nag-asemble ng mga kontrata habang nanginginig ang mga daliri mo. Nahihilo ka na naman, 'di ba?"Ku

"Aking ikamamatay kapag sinubukan kang agawin ng kahit sinong lalaki sa akin, Ciara."Nakatayo ako sa gilid ng madilim kong kwarto sa ikalawang palapag, nakadikit ang aking palad sa malamig na salamin ng bintana habang nakatitig sa ibaba. Sa gitna ng maagang liwanag ng umaga, nakaluhod si Ciara sa basang lupa ng hardin, nakasuot ng simpleng dilaw na shirt at nakalugay ang magulo niyang buhok habang nagtatanim ng mga kulay-oranyong bulaklak."Sir James, nakahanda na po ang sasakyan niyo papuntang headquarters," narinig kong wika ng aking bodyguard mula sa pinto."Cancel all my appointments today," malamig kong sagot nang hindi inilalayo ang aking tingin sa bakuran. "Ayokong umalis ng bahay habang nasa labas siya.""Pero naghihintay na po ang board of directors para sa quarterly medical evaluation review niyo...""Sabi ko ika-cancel, hindi ba?!" sigaw ko habang marahas na humaharap sa kanya, ang aking panga ay naninikit sa matinding inis. "Iwan mo ako. Walang sinumang papasok sa bakod n
Deadline:The Billionaire Who Loved Me On Borrowed Time Chapter 10: Doubling the Fortress (James's POV)
"Dagdagan niyo ng limampung tao ang security team sa paligid ng property ngayong gabi, Mateo."Nakatayo ako sa gitna ng aking dimly lit study room habang nakatitig sa monitor ng security camera grid. Ang aking mga daliri ay nakakuyom sa gilid ng mahoganyang mesa habang nakikita ang maliit na cottage sa ibaba kung saan tahimik na natutulog si Ciara."Sir James, higit tatlumpung tao na po ang nagbabantay sa perimeter," sagot ni Mateo mula sa kabilang linya ng telepono, ang kanyang boses ay puno ng pagtataka at kaba. "Lahat po ng papasok sa limang milyang sakop ng estate ay dumadaan sa strict background checks.""I don't care," malamig kong putol sa kanyang pahayag habang ang aking mga mata ay pumatong sa CCTV feed na nakatutok sa gate ng estate. "Walang sinumang lalaki ang pwedeng lumapit sa kanya. No delivery drivers, no local vendors, no strangers. Kapag may nakita akong kahit sinong lalaking bumabati sa kanya sa kalsada, sisatuhin ko ang buong security department mo.""Masusunod po,
