Chapter 4: Jealousy and Punishment

Lila POV

Hindi ko alam kung bakit parang tumibok ng mas mabilis ang puso ko ngayong araw sa office. Siguro dahil sa tension na dulot ng contract namin ni Adrian. Pero hindi lang yun. May kakaibang excitement rin sa bawat galaw niya, sa bawat tingin niya sa akin… at ngayon, ang lahat ng iyon ay may kasamang… fear.

Nasa pantry ako, nagpi-pick up ng kape, habang abala sa mga documents ko sa phone. Biglang may humawak sa aking waist—isang co-worker namin, si Marco. Akala ko hindi ko na maaayos ang balance ko dahil nadulas ako sa sahig. “Ahh!” naisip ko lang, pero ramdam ko ang init sa pagitan namin nang halos mahulog ako sa kanya.

“Okay ka lang ba, Lila?” he asked, steadying me, hands still on my waist.

“Yes… yes… salamat,” I said, heart pounding. Pero hindi ko sinasadya—ang lapit niya sa akin, yung almost kiss niya habang inaayos ako, parang nag-flash sa akin ng kakaibang kilig. Hindi ko alam na baka nakakaalam si Adrian.

At iyon nga, habang ako’y bumalik sa desk ko, biglang lumabas si Adrian. Nakatingin siya sa akin, mata niya parang nagliliyab. Ang puso ko, parang tumigil sa tibok.

“Lila,” he said, voice low, commanding. “Sa office. My office. Ngayon din.”

“Y-yes, Sir,” trembling ang boses ko. Ramdam ko na alam niya na may nangyari, at kahit hindi ko sinasadya, alam kong may punishment na naghihintay.

Pagpasok ko sa office niya, nakasandal siya sa desk niya, arms crossed, smirk sa lips. “Tell me what happened, Lila. Why was Marco touching you?”

“N-no po, Sir! Nadulas lang po ako…” I tried to explain, pero alam kong hindi siya naniwala. Parang napansin niya ang bawat reaction ko—ang heart rate ko, ang pagkakabilis ng hininga ko.

He moved closer, ang aura niya parang predator. “Hmm… nadulas lang, ha? And you… didn’t push him away fast enough.” His hand brushed lightly along my arm, sending shivers down my spine. “Interesting.”

Pilit kong napailing. “S-sir… hindi po ako… intentional…”

Ngunit hindi niya ako pinayagan magpaliwanag nang masyado. He grabbed my hand and pulled me closer, pressing me against his desk. Ang init, ang lakas ng presence niya—hindi ko makagalaw.

“You think I won’t notice, Lila?” His voice was low, rough, possessive. “You almost let him kiss you… and you didn’t stop it fast enough. Do you know what that does to me?”

I gasped, moaning softly despite myself. “Ah… Sir… I didn’t mean…”

He silenced me with a finger on my lips, eyes dark, dangerous. “You think this is a game?” he whispered. “No. This… this is punishment. For testing me. For tempting me.”

Ako? Trembling. Excited. Scared. My body responded kahit against sa will ko. He wanted to punish me, and kahit alam ko na dapat ako’y natatakot, nararamdaman ko rin ang init ng katawan ko.

Without warning, he grabbed me and moved us to the office CR. Ang dibdib ko ay parang tumalon sa dibdib ko habang nakatingin sa paligid—walang ibang tao. Lamang lang kami sa small, dimly lit space, and suddenly… adrenaline mixed with fear and excitement.

He pressed me against the wall, hands roaming over my body, making me whimper. “Ah… Sir…” I moaned softly, trying to protest, but hindi ko maalis ang excitement.

“You need to understand, Lila,” he murmured, brushing his lips along my neck. “Actions have consequences. And you… you will learn.”

Ang kamay niya, ang lips niya, bawat touch—parang nagsusugod sa akin. I gasped, moaning louder, “Ah… Sir… please…”

“Good girl,” he whispered, grinding against me, making me tremble. “So responsive… so eager… But remember, this is punishment. Hardcore. Intense. You’re mine, and I decide how far this goes.”

I gasped again, hips pressing instinctively. He grabbed me, lifted me onto the sink counter, ang init ng intensity, bawat movement niya commanding, yet… strangely erotic.

“Ahh… Sir…” I moaned loudly, unable to control my reaction. He smirked, lips brushing against mine in a rough, hungry kiss. “You like this, don’t you? Being dominated… tested… punished?”

“Yes… Sir… ahh…” My voice shook, body trembling, moans escaping freely. Ang power niya, ang control niya—hindi ko maalis sa utak ko, kahit alam kong ito ay punishment.

His hands roamed freely, teasing, exploring, marking. “Do you feel it, Lila? How much I can make you beg… make you submit… make you mine?”

“Yes… Sir… I’m yours…” I whispered, voice breaking, moaning as hips moved against him involuntarily. Ang init, ang pleasure, ang fear—lahat ng emotions ko naghalo.

He pulled back slightly, watching me with a smirk, lips brushing my ear. “Ah… that sound… it belongs to me now. Every moan, every breath… mine.”

My chest heaved, my body shaking. I felt degraded, yet exhilarated. Every movement, every touch, every whisper… he owned it all. I surrendered completely, my moans growing louder. “Ahh… Sir… please… ahhh…”

“Good girl,” he murmured, grinding harder, forcing me to arch my back against him. “You test me… you tempt me… and now… you pay the price.”

Soft whimpers, loud moans, and harsh whispers filled the small CR. Ang init ng punishment, ang control niya, parang naghalo sa katawan ko—thrilling, erotic, overwhelming.

“Do you understand, Lila?” His hands pressed my hips firmly, lips nipping at sensitive spots. “You belong to this… to me… and you will learn. Hardcore. Intense. No mercy. Do you understand?”

“Yes… Sir… I understand…” I moaned, hips pressing, body trembling. Ang excitement, ang fear, ang submission—lahat naghalo. I surrendered completely to him, knowing every moan, every gasp, every tremble… belonged to Adrian Vilar.

And in that moment, kahit alam kong ito ay punishment, kahit alam kong ginawa niya ito dahil sa jealousy, may bahagi sa akin na craving more. I wanted it. I wanted him. Even when scared. Even when ashamed. I was his—completely, fully, undeniably.
