hello all, okay, balik UD na tayo. Nabusy talaga ako sa lahat lahat. Merry christmas nga pala sa inyong lahat :)
Brodie's POV.She blew up the half a million dollars? Huh, damn. . . This is cool anyway. I have the best excuse to have her."So, anong gusto mo?" Matapang ang titig na pinakawalan niya sa akin. Napasandal ako sa dingding at seryoso siyang tinitigan.I'm not drunk, but I'm hot enough to make her mine tonight. We are back at the hotel now. It was early to go. There are still events at the venue, but I lost my appetite. All I want to do is to drag her to bed, kiss her hard, and make her moan in pleasure.Damn this. The alcohol is now playing a little guilt in my system. This is why I hate drinking."Like I've said, I'm cool about this, Carmella.""Okay. That's fine. May pangangailangan ka at ako rin naman 'di ba?"She crossed her arms together, and I swore behind my mind. She's hard to tame. That's for sure, but why do I find her more sexy? Huh, I must be crazy.I nodded and sighed in relief."Okay, but I have my condition, Brodie."Brodie? She's calling me Brodie now instead of mahal
Brodie's POV."Brodie!" Carmella whimpered, feeling annoyed. Her eyes shot like dagger towards me. I came panting, staring at her.Ilang segundo ko muna siyang tinitigan na nakapamaywang sa sarili.Damn, I was right. She's a virgin.Then, what's the big deal, Brodie? Carmella is mine. She's my wife.I captured her mouth again in another kiss, pushing her body back to the mattress. There was no noise from her. She's hungry as fuck and still wants to be eaten by me.I kissed and licked her down to her nipple. Suck the other one and massaged the other. She came panting, trying to touch me below. Hinawakan ko ang kamay niya at pinako ito sa ibabaw ng ulo niya."I only have one rule from this, Carmella," I said, panting at her. She nods."You break yours by kissing me, and that's alright, mahal ko. But mine can't be broken by any type of weapon."I pushed my member at her entry, and she gasped, feeling tense, excited, and at the same time so fucking hot."Once I'm inside, there's no turni
Brodie's POV."Is she still sleeping?""Yes," I sighed, looking at myself for the final time."How do you like your haircut?" Her brows narrowed."Perfect. Thank you, Vein." I stood up, composing myself for the final time."Are you sure you are not going to regret this? The organization is spying on you, Brodie. Sooner or later, they will find out about this, and you will know what will happen next.""I don't care, Vein. I'm ready for anything. I'm nearly there. Just a few steps away, and this will be over." I turned my back, grabbed my stuff, and got ready to exit the place."And what about Nicolle?"Napaigting ang panga ko at hindi ko nilingon si Vein. Itinaas ko nalang ang kanang kamay ko sa kanya.Bahagyang yumuko agad siya.---"Thank you, mahal. It felt like we were living in the dream." Carmella looped her arms around me, burying her face against my chest."Hmm, ang bango mo talaga? Ano ba ang gamit mong shave? Perfume? Sabon?"I scoffed and hugged her tightly. "Just the hotel
Brodie's POV . "Are you sure about that? Baka naman pagdating natin ng Italya ay magbabago ka." Naningkit ang mga mata niya sa akin at natawa agad ako. "Carmella, this is not you. When did you lose your confidence, mahal?" I shook my head. "I didn't lose my confidence, mahal. I'm just making sure. So, ano? Deal?" She extended her hand, and I looked at it. "What are you trying to play this time, mahal?" I sighed. She's full of surprises, and sometimes it does my head in. Noong isang araw nakipagpustahan siya sa akin at ang nakataya ang kalahating hectaria ng lupa ko sa kabilang bundok. Alam kong mananalo ako, pero para sa ikakatuwa niya ay kusa akong nagpatalo sa kanya. She got that share now. It's not a problem for me. She can get everything she wants as if she needs it. I know she's got more money than I have in the bank. "I'm betting my heart here, okay? So be responsible." Umikot siya sa likod ko at sa huminto sa harapan ko. Pilya ang pagtitig sa akin at saka naupo siya sa
Carmella's POV."Oh my gosh! Welcome back, Carmella, babe!"Halos idikit na ni Butter ang mukha niya sa akin. Kulang nalang ay magpalit kami ng mukha dalawa."Ew, bitawan mo nga ako! Hindi tayo close ano! At ano ba ang ginagawa mo rito?"Napailing si Betty at mabilis na yumakap sa akin."I miss you, Carmella. I'm glad that you are back in good health." Sabay titig niya sa kabuuan ko. Agad lang din na yumakap sa akin si Prince."Mi Zia! Mi manchi, Zia!" Yakap ni Prince at mahigpit din ang pag-yakap ko sa kanya. Bahagya akong napalunod para magtapat ang ulo namin."Ang tangkad mo na. This is unfair. You are getting taller and handsome." I pouted and squeezed his chunky cheeks."In no time, I will be taller than you, Zia! And I will be strong, too!" Pagmamayabang ni Prince. Ipinakita niya agad ang muscles niya. Natawa na ako."Yes, I know. You are like your father, you know?" Ginulo ko ang buhok niya at napatalon na siya."Like me? Or probably like my mi amore?" si Drake sa likod namin.
Carmella's POV."Ang arte ah. Ayaw mo talagang ipakilala sa akin? And why? Come on, Carmella. I'm not gonna judge you." Venette looked at me suspiciously.After a careful consideration of what Butter had told me. I came to visit Venette. Brodie is getting his townhouse ready for us. At last, Papa agreed for us to live separately.Ayaw nga niya noong simula, dahil gusto niya lang na sa bahay kami ni Brodie. Pero ang hirap huminga roon. Nakikita ko palagi si Drake at Betty at ang mga bata.I sometimes can't stand how harsh Drake is to Prince, and it breaks my heart. I wasn't going to grab the little boy, as I only want to play with him. But Drake wasn't happy with that. Mas mabuti na raw na mag-anak na ako at nang sa ganoon ay may kalaro ako kaysa sa inisin ang anak niya.Huh, ang babaw niya talaga!"What is it, Carmella? Hindi ka pupunta rito sa kaharian ko na walang plano."Naupo si Venette sa upuan niya at hindi parin ako makasagot. Naglalaro kasi sa isipan ko ang sinabi ni Butter s
Brodie's POVMore than two weeks have passed, and Carmella has quickly adjusted to our living type. She liked the house that I have here. It was a simple one and not much as big back in Victoria. She made it more comfortable with the designs and types of furniture that we bought.Malapit lang din ang tahanan namin sa mansyon ng ama niya at minsan ay madalas kami roon tuwing weekends para magtipon. Carmella loves the kids. She spent more time with them during her free time without me."Finally, it's nice to catch up with you, Brodie." Silveztri patted my shoulder, and the two of us sat down in our usual spot."The same as usual, Mauve. Thank you," I ordered.Naiwan kaming sandali ni Silveztri sa puwesto. Ang pub na ito ay isa sa mga paboritong tambayan namin noon, noong mga kabataan namin. We hang out here together with our friends and with my brother Axton. The things around has improve through the years. But the environment and the ambiance stays the same."Thank you, Mauve," I said
Brodie's POVShe's pissed off. I know that. Damn.I took a deep breath, and I felt nervous. I didn't mean to be rude, but I just can't bring myself to smile and be authentic.I'm tired. I want to do something for Carmella today, but the news of Axton being here in Italy gives me the chill already.That damn bastard. He just likes to give me a headache."Did you give it to her?" Nathaniel asked in the line. I looked at the time, and I was not sure if Carmella was still awake at this hour."Not yet.""What the fuck, Brodie? Be a man! Go and do your job, mate."Bahagya akong napayuko sa sarili at pumailalim ang kamay ko sa kanan na bulsa. Maingat konng nilabas ang maitim na box at tinitigan ko itong mabuti."It's nearly twelve o'clock there, right? Matatapos na ang anniversarry ninyo. May bumabagabag ba sa isip mo?" tanong ni Nathaniel galing sa kabilang linya."Axton is here and it's doing my head in.""Really? Damn.""Yes," I sighed. "I will see him this weekend. Silveztri has already
Diezel.I hold the result in my hand, and my heart races as I read it. The twins are indeed mine, and a copy was also sent to Anastacia via the Captain of the Villa.Wala akong duda. Alam kong akin silang dalawa. Malaki ang hawig namin ni Zev, at si Skye? Namana niya ang mga mata ni Mama. Although she looks like more on Anastacia, but her eyes belong in my bloodline.Skye's smile and her deep dimple clearly reflect my traits. In contrast, Zev resembles a male version of Anastacia, yet his facial structure and lips share my characteristics. He may not have the deep dimple like Skye, but when he smiles, he retains that version of me.I need to go back. I'm done with everything and have made new arrangements with the heads regarding work. They can reach me online, and I can do my work online."Why are you not joining me for the food tasting today, honey? Hindi mo pa rin nasusukat ang damit mo. Kailan ka ba bibisita roon? Ikaw na lang ang kulang."I'm talking to Caterina on the phone. Sh
Anastacia.Talagang hindi niya ako binigyan ng pagkakataon na makapagpahinga ano?Nagtagpo ang kilay ko at seryoso kong tinitigan ang dalawa sa iilang mga tao sa loob ng bahay ko. Maaga pa lang ay ginising na ako ng ingay sa labas.The group of medical team together with Diezel's lawyer and some security, including our barangay captain and police were here early and that shocked me!Hindi kabilang si Diezel sa kanila. Wala siya. Mabuti nga, dahil kung nandito siya ay tiyak sinampal ko na.The lawyer spoke to me first and explained the process, and I could only agree to it. They're calm, okay, and collective, and the barangay captain is a good friend of mine. We had a good talk.Ang kambal lang ang medyo nalilito sa sitwasyon. Hindi ko inaasahan na ganito kabilis gagawin ni Diezel ang lahat. Wala pa akong sinabi sa mga bata. Wala pa silang alam! At ngayon na nasa haparan nilang dalawa ang isang nurse at doctor ay nalillito na ang kambal.Hindi nila alam kung para saan ito, at kung bak
Diezel.I sat stiffly in front of my two beautiful kids while Anastacia was making me coffee. I put on my best smile amidst the chaos inside my heart.I was nervous as hell when I landed in Cagayan de Oro. Reeve was with me, and we came together here.Malapit lang ang bagong hotel na pinapatayo ni Reeve rito at may bahay bakasyonan din siya, at doon ako pansamantala titira.I drove here with high hopes of seeing Anastacia and was shocked by everything. I didn't know we were having twins. I didn't know everything, and that pained me more.It deeply hurts me. I feel sorry, not for myself, but for the kids in front of me. I know I was an asshole, and I can't blame Anastacia for that. But for her not to tell me that she was pregnant was indeed selfish! How could she do this to me? Why is this happening? And the kids? Damn it.Iniwas ko saglit ang tingin sa dalawa at saka nahagip nang mga mata ko ang buong paligid.Simpli ang bahay na ito. Walang espesyal at normal ang lahat. Malaki ang l
Anastacia."What are you doing here?"Iba na ako sa dati. Hindi na kumakalabog ang puso ko dahil excited ako na makita siya. Iba ang noon, at iba ito ngayon. May halong takot na bawat pintig na pinapakawalan ng puso ko sa kanya. Wala na akong tiwala.Taas noo ko ulit siyang tinitigan sa mata."Are you lost? Mukhang nasa maling bahay ka yata?" I chuckled.His jaw ticked, and he looked at me coldly. His piercing eyes were like a dagger that straight cut right into me."So, this is where you are hiding?" He gritted.Kinabahan ako at napahigpit ang hawak ko sa pinto. Hindi ito nakabukas ng maayos dahil hinawakan ko naman. Kabado ako sa kung ano man ang makita niya sa loob. Kaya bago pa mangyari ito ay mas mabuti hindi na niya makita pa.“Excuse me? Did you say I was hiding?” I chuckled softly and pulled the door closer to me.Ako na lang ang nakikita niya ngayon at hindi na ang loob."Hindi ako kailanman nagtago, Diezel. I'm living here comfortably, away from those people who don't want
Anastacia.I looked so terribly ugly as I looked at myself in the mirror. I'm stressed and problematic with money, and here I am... sick.Simula pa lang noong nakaraang linggo ay hindi na maganda ang pakiramdam ko. Hanggang sa heto, bumigay na nga ang katawan ko.The kids are home because it's summer school break—no school for them and no summer activities. I felt sorry for my kids not attending any summer activities, but I'm short on money, and the bills are piling up. Isali mo pa ang butas sa kisame ng kwarto ko. Mabuti na lang at summer ngayon at hindi uulan.Skye and Zev asked me why I did not enroll them in swimming lessons. Sinabi ko na lang na kulang ang pera ko, at agad naman na intindihan ng dalawa ito. Nakakaawa nga, dahil lahat ng mga kaklase nila ay may ginagawa at sila? Heto nasa bahay.Hapon na nang nakaramdam ako ng gutom. Instant noodles ang kinain ko, kasama ang kambal. Nilagyan ko ng gulay at dalawang itlog ito, at masaya na ang dalawa. Para sa kanila ay masarap na
Diezel.I almost stumble as I exit my car, breathing heavily like a furious beast poised to attack.How dare she hide from me? How dare she lie that she's on pills and wasn't? Fucking dammit!"Sir Diezel. . . "Itinaas ko lang ang kamay kay Martino. Isa siya sa mga bodyguard ng bahay ko. Huminto siya at bahagyang yumuko at hindi na ako sunundan.I walk directly to the second floor where my office library is situated. I need to call someone—someone skilled at locating a person who is in hiding.Damn you, Anastacia!Napakuyom-kamao ako at ramdam ko ang panginginig ng laman. I understand that the odds may not be absolute, but I have a strong intuition that I'm the father. I need to discover the truth.Malamig ang aircon sa sekretong silid na ito, pero tagaktag ang pawis ko. Ito ang unang pagkakataon na bumalik ang ganitong pakiramdam sa akin.Once I activate my code, that will be the end of it. I will go against my grandfather and mother for this."Linus..." I clenched my teeth while en
Diezel.It's damn boring and I can't keep up with the boys schedules. They don't leave me, it's just that I was the one who wanted to be left out.I feel so lost and empty. Something is not right, and it’s a bother to wake up like this every morning. I'm tired of it, and tired of everything."Ciao, figlio mio! I miss you!"I spun my chair back to the door and saw my mother together with my fiancée, Caterina. The two of them look like mother and daughter. They have the same taste when it comes to clothing and food.Magaling magluto si Mama at ganun din si Caterina. Magaling sa lutong italian, at masaya ako dahil natitikman ang mga putahe na parang kay Mama na rin."Honey…" Caterina wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me.I couldn't kiss back, and my lips just stuck still. She then let go and tangled her arms around my mother."I found the right wedding dress! You will love it!" siglang boses ni Caterina. "Oh, I'm so excited! I can't wait!""And I can't wait too, dear. I like my
Anastacia.Is he engaged? Soon to be married? Huh, good on him!After seven years, I never once checked about him or what's happened lately with the company. I don't want to hear any news from them, especially from him.Naging abala na rin naman ang buhay ko. Mahirap magpalaki ng kambal, at kahit ngayon ay nangangarag pa rin ako.Nawala na sa isip ko si Diezel. Hindi na ako interesado, at wala na akong pakialam kung nag asawa na ba siya o nagkaroon na ng maraming anak. Pero nang marinig ko kanina kay Dianne na engaged na siya ay nababagabag lang ako.Ba't ba ako ganito? Hay, naku, Anastacia!I can’t sleep, and it’s after one o’clock in the morning. I’ve already checked all the items I will deliver tomorrow after dropping the twins at school.Nakatitig na ako sa relo sa dingding habang inom ang chamomile tea. Tulog na ang kambal, pero ako? Heto, hindi man lang dinalaw ng antok.Kinuha ko ang cellphone sa bag at saka nag-search sa app tungkol sa kompanya. Dito tumambad sa akin ang mga
Anastacia.My heart raced when I saw Zev's face. He's got bruises around the right eye like someone had punched him in the face."Anong nangyari sa 'yo? Who did this to you?"Napaluhod ako at ininspeksyon ang mukha niya. Hindi ko sila nasundo ngayon dahil delivery ngayon ng orders ko galing Amerika. Ako mismo ang kumuha ng mga ito sa pantalan. Kaya pansamantala si George ang kumuha sa mga bata."Tinanong ko rin, Ate. Pero ayaw magsalita. Ganyan na ang mukha eh. Gusto ko sanang kausapin ang guro nila, pero wala raw. Kaya umuwi na kami."Bitbit ni George ang bag ng dalawang bata. Inilapag niya ito sa gilid at saka namaywang sa likod ko."Patingin nga. Dios ko…" Tumayo ako at kumuha ng maligamgam na tubig. Pina upo ko si Zev at tahimik siyang nakayuko. Samantalang si Skye ay nasa gilid lang. Nakasandal sa dingding at pinagmamasdan kami."Ano ba ang nangyari, Skye? Who did this to your brother?"Siya na ngayon ang tinanong ko. Alam kong matigas ang ulo ni Zev at madalas ay hindi siya na
