Diego De Luna, Over My Dead Body

Cariena’s POV.I walked like I'd won the Miss Universe title. I smiled wickedly and dropped the lavish black port bag I had taken with me.Nawala rin agad ang ngiti sa labi ko, at tumaas ang kilay ko nang makita ang mga tauhan ni Papa. Nakalinya silang lahat at nakayuko.They're in line like idiots in my way. Huh, mga walang silbi! "Good afternoon, Miss Cariena," bigay galang ni Edu, ang kanang kamay ni Papa. Agad niyang kinuha ang maitim na bagahe ko at napatingin siya sa helicopter na gamit ko.I lifted my brows and rolled my eyes while giving him a smirk. "T-that's not ours - " Awang ng labi niya at pilya akong ngumiti "Yes, it's not one of ours, Edu. Sa bobong mukhang aso ang helicopter na iyan!" Taas kilay ko, at nagpatuloy na ako nang hakbang. Pero nahinto lang din ako sa sarili at hinarap siyang muli.Lumawak ang ngiti sa labi niya at kinindatan pa ako.Oh heck! Ang pangit ah! Hindi ko type ang mga mukhang zombie sa harap ko! Ugh! "Drive that helicopter, Edu, and crush it,

Cariena’s POV . I can feel the warm water around my skin, which feels refreshing. It feels like I'm floating out of space. Walang iniisip, blanko ang utak. I had a few bruises that I got from the escape. I could still hear the people's screams when I fired the shotgun at my target. Huh, that was not even half of the money that Diego would get, but I stole that from him. I don't care if it's going to cost less. I want him dead. Naimulat ko ang mga mata at sa malinaw na tubig ng bathtub na ito nakasubsob ang buong katawan ko. Hubad, walang saplot at walang pakialam sa mundo. Tahimik ang buong paligid, hanggang sa marinig ko ang mahihinang hakbang na papasok dito sa banyo ko. I cursed in the back of my mind and slowly held my gun with me. It's behind me, in this bathtub, just behind my naked body. Dahan-dahan ang paghawak ko nito at mariing nakabukas ang mga mata ko. Hanggang sa naaninag ko na ang anino niya sa harapan ko. I'm like a sleeping beauty to him, but it's just that I'm

Cariena's POV."Ano!? No way, Papa. Ayaw ko!"Nagtagpo ang kilay ni Papa at galit itong nakatitig sa akin. Habang si Mama? Heto, sa gilid, pilit na kinakalma ang sarili.They're getting worried after hearing from the De Lourdes Clan that the crazy El Cappuccino ordered his gangs and circle of friends to collaborate with them. . . And the mission? Is to extinguish me from this planet.Huh, ang galing nga naman ng pesting Diego De Luna de letsi ano? At talagang sagad na sa pagkadesperado sa buto, dahil pati ang kaalyado ni Papa ay ngayon ay kakampi na nila.That pest! Mura ng isip ko."This is for your safety, Siobeh. Just be away for two months while I will sort everything with the others. I will ensure to get them back at our side, which will be our payback.""Payback?" pamaywang ko, "why not do it now, Papa? Hindi ba pwede na ngayon na?"Tumalikod si Papa at napabuntonghininga. "Not now, my dear. . . El Cuppuccino put an end to my business down the north-side. That bloody idiot with

Diego's POV . "And so, you're going away again?" si Gabriel Montanari sa akin. I lean backwards, sitting on this old fashion rocking chair owned by Mamita, Gabriel's deceased mother. After giving Ace and the rest of the boys an order, I decided to visit Gabriel in his secret paradise. This is where he goes every docking from his work. Sa ganitong buwan at panahon din natatapos ang misyon siya, kaya alam ko agad na nandito siya. "Do you want to join me?" titig ko sa kulay asul na langit. I did not look at him, because I don't want to read the expression of his face. I admit it, I get jealous of the way Gabriel Montanari's life. I wish I have joined him before. But this is really my fate. . . Akala ko noon, noong si Papa pa ang namamalakad sa lahat ay hindi niya ibibigay ang obligasyon ng Del Luna sa akin, pero gaya ng sinabi ni Drake, wala akong kawala sa posisyon na ito. I may as well lead the boys and operate the business according to my own accord than pass it to El Cappuccino

Diego's POV.The smell of freedom. . . Ahh, so damn great! My mind speaks.This is what I want, and I can't wait to see the boys. But before I could jump into the private helicopter that would take me to the City, Gabriel Montanari called me."Digs, have fun, okay? And look after my penthouse for the time being. I will be away with Morris.""No worries. Thanks, bro. But I will only stay for a week or so. You know me, I hate the city, and I want to get away with the nightlife as much as possible."He chuckles in the line like he thinks that I am joking. Oh hell. . ."That's fine, Digs. But if you want to extend your nightlife, then you are most welcome to stay longer. Bayaran mo lang ang laundry shop sa baba.""No problem! Maglalaba ako. I know how to do that," pilyong ngiti ko."Okay, Digs. Let's catch up next time," sabay patay niya sa tawag.I nodded silently and kept going. Naghihintay na si Maximo sa akin, siya ang piloto ko ngayon. I know how to drive this helicopter, but I coul
