CHAPTER 102: SINFUL DESIRESThe heat we felt before isn’t something that can be ease by a mere talk, by closure we thought would freed us—no, both Jacques and I knew that it wouldn’t be. I love him, and I could feel the same feeling when our lips touch. It wasn’t right, but it doesn’t feel wrong either way. I married Zach to be an El Mayor just like what Daddy wanted, but it’s been so long—perhaps, it would be the time where I could let myself enjoy this tiniest bit of freedom I had. My father is already dead, but that doesn’t mean I was happy he is—perhaps, because I lost count of how much he was trying to butt into everything that I was trying to make on my own.The anger and hate, the loathsome and contempt crawled all the way, yet only to be forgotten, when I felt Jacques lips against mine. “Van—” He moaned in between. His callous hand radiates warm, and I felt like they were spreading across my entire body the moment we made contact. He was touching me everywhere. Although clot
CHAPTER 103: DINNER DATE I couldn’t stomach it. I felt like I am going to throw out everything. There, on the photograph, I could see his wife...other than that, the fact that she was naked already suggested that something had actually happened between them. The man is handsome, I presumed, but even Zachary was. He was dazzling, handsome, dark and charming on his own way as if he owns the world as he walk passed by ahead. He has this ruthless air around him that would make everybody scuttled just so they could get away from him. Now, I could understand why they are so terrified upon hearing his name, Zachary El Mayor paired by how he looks.But that night he seems....somehow different.He have this look of longing, and sadness that even I could feel to where I assumed he was Santi. It was as if I could feel my ex-boyfriend in regret of what he had done to me. The eyes which mirrored emotions I had never yet seen before, but then knowing Santi, and our encounter earlier that day, befo
CHAPTER 104: HIS WOMAN VS HIS EX-WIFEThe woman was voluptuous. Her curves falls on each corner and on its right places. A bodycon was hugging her perfectly shaped waist and chest. They were tight, but fair enough to flaunt her assets and what beautiful of a woman she had work on to achieve who she is, or perhaps it was on genetics. I couldn’t help, but get jealous. She was more than the average I was. My chest falls between in the middle, it wasn’t big, but I am on B group. And my body—I have baby fats on my stomach, my arms were like jelly, incomparable to some women around my age. It made me envious. I will admit that I was kind of...permissive.I couldn’t help, but wonder—how do they manage to maintain such appearance? And how do they become so much beautiful, remaining on the top, where most women would desire to be them?I don’t know. I have no idea even on the slightest.“It’s you.” Her smile widened. “I am really not mistaken. I didn’t expect to see you here now that Vanessa i
CHAPTER 105: ENDANGEREDZachary was driving ahead. He has nowhere to go or so he thought. After Vanessa’s unannounced visit, he had ordered Jacob, his personal butler to checked whether that woman was telling the truth or not. He wouldn’t be fool again for the love she had been selfish before. She could play him on her fingertips, but not now. Zachary had learn a great lesson not to dwell against with the foolishness of lies weaved by her lips. The fact that she had filed a divorce were enough to make him believed that there’s more than the loath Vanessa were speaking about. There’s more story than what she was trying to reasoned out, and it was Jacques. That damn Jacques. Zachary’s mind cursed aloud that name. He may have been the only person he had hated a lot“Fuck that bastard.” He gritted his teeth. His hold tightened across the steering wheel. Zachary swerved the car, and in a swept, what he failed to noticed, although he can recognize the road was the fact that it was leadin
CHAPTER 106: THREATENED The pain on her scalp was unbearable. Yna wanted to curse Jake, but she was keeping her mouth shut. She bit her lips, while the tears were all streaming down her cheeks. Her eyes stings. How much longer should she cry? Yna was bawling her eyes out, but she was misheard. The misdeeds she was suffering from she couldn’t beat, and her cries for help from Vanessa seems to be futile.The woman on the other hand appeared deaf, she never even batted an eyelash to where Yna was. Vanessa seems cruel. Cold and stoic, same with Zachary’s expression as far as she recalled at the back of her head.Yna haven’t had any idea where Jake had lead them to. It was like the cabin, where he speaks of that Vanessa’s uncle was currently staying.“Here we are.” Jake opened the door.Vanessa was the one who walked ahead of them. It was if she knew what business she have on this place to which Yna still question.Afterwards, Jake directed his attention to Yna after the latter left.“And
CHAPTER 107: PUNISHMENTJake lied.He never help her, but he laughs at Yna with so much mockery as she lay there on that table. It was made of wood, it was cold and damp by saltwater that makes her skin itched and recoiled. She wanted to scratch them with her nails, the thought to scratch them until they bleeds drove her sanity at the edge, because she couldn’t. Both of her arms and legs are tied. The ropes are tight, and Yna knew the marks it would have left once they loosened. She could feel it biting across her skin, and it sting.She bit her lips. But funny how Yna did not cry. Perhaps, her tears are already dry. She was tired of bawling her eyes out, and calling for help, when none came from how much had she repeated those words. Are they monsters? Are they borne from evil? Maybe, maybe not. She lost care.Yna already felt numb.“Well well, look who’s here today.” The familiar voice she learn to get acquainted from uttered.It was Jake. She knew it was him. His footsteps, the hea
CHAPTER 108: MANIPULATION“Y—you are here....” Her voice was shaking.Yna wasn’t dreaming.The moment she wrapped her arms around him, she knew for sure that it wasn’t just a illusion that her mind has been playing tricks with her. It was far more better than that. It wasn’t a nightmare precedent by her thoughts just because of how she was missing Zachary. His smell quickly filled her nose. The sense of comfort and hope came back to Yna, and she had nothing more to ask, when it was already given to her. Zachary gave her more tbsn6the desire to live and survive, her and their child that seems to be growing inside of her belly. Perhaps, she can tell it to him after they escape this clutch of evil.“Shhh, I’m here.” He whispered above her ears, while Yna buried her head on her chest.The warmth radiating from him seems to lulled Yna.Preoccupied, she had totally forgotten everything. Her mind disregard the danger, as her body felt utterly secured and safe with hi. How can it be possible?
CHAPTER 109: BREWING CHAOSIt was a total riot. What she was seeing was a wreckage. There are a lot of screaming that seems to go on and on and on. She could hear it, but Yna couldn’t see, but envisioned only what was happening. Her left shoulder was throbbing. A white hot pain cascade down on her core. She was whimpering, and was crying. But in spite of those noise and clamors that was surrounding Yna, she still manage to hear Zachary’s voice. “Y—Yna!” He sounded worried. Yna wanted to tell him that she was just alright, but she couldn’t. There is this force that seems to be stopping her from doing so.“Z—zach...” In a weak voice, that is what she was only capable to say. Why does she sounded as if she was trembling? What had happened? But most of all, what troubles Yna greatly was the fact that she was in so much pain that she couldn’t explain, and everything, her body hurts rather badly. “W—what’s happening…” Confounded she asked. That’s when it all dawn to Yna. She had be
