"Are you okay?"
Femella turned to me from staring out of the car. She looked so distracted. She smiled at me without the usual glow and fierceness in her eyes."Yeah, I'm okay. Don't worry."I returned my focus to the road."Where will I drop you off? Will you go back to your apartment first?" I had noticed her strange silence earlier while we were at home and having breakfast. She is not responding to my questions which is making me worry. I tried to put on a conversation but she didn't seem to be buying it. She will just answer me with a small smile and a shrug. I wonder what went wrong.Did she change her mind? I gripped the steering wheel and squeezed my teeth at the thought.No way in hell I'm going to let her go. I've already decided to explore this new terrain I've discovered.This was the first time I felt this so I just had to do everything to keep Femella with me.I accelerated the speedRelated chapters

"A boy named Dave called me last night and leaked out your location. Care to tell me what's going on, princess?""Stop calling me that!" I hissed at Vida. "Then tell me what's this all about. Stop sulking in a corner acting as if you just broke up with your boyfriend. Oh wait!" She paused and inspected my face. "Shut up!" I wiped her hand from my face and looked out of the car. After landing the helicopter on a hangar, we boarded the waiting club car that would take me to my apartment."Gosh! Did you just fall in love with Maverick? Wow! I can't believe it! You have a horrible taste in men, Femella."I glanced at Vida."Okay, I'm gonna shut up. I have to consider your feelings, I know. It's not easy to nurse a broken heart.""Shut up." I gripped Maverick's jacket on my body. I silently cursed myself for being vulnerable in front of him. He shouldn't have witnessed that. "So? Who

I stopped the Tesla Model X car in front of one of my hotels and stepped out of it. I buttoned up my suit jacket and glanced at my security team who also exited their armored vehicles. I nodded to Jex who was their head and walked ahead.I passed through the revolving glass door and into the turnstile where I swiped up my identification card. Every employee stopped in their tracks to greet me. "Good day, sir."I just nodded at those who greeted me as I walked to the private elevator. Anita, out hotel manager greeted me and accompanied me. There wasn't any hint of weariness on her face considering it's a surprise inspection."How's the ongoing renovation of the 63rd floor?" I asked in a casual tone."Going well, sir. The interior designer you recommended is already on her finishing touches. The curated art pieces from Mindanao just arrived. They will be decorated according to the preference of the guests

My whole body was covered in dust and dirt and I was also sticky because of the sweat from a few hours of cleaning the whole apartment but I still went on scrubbing the sticky dried rice on the floor tiles. In my mind, I had already killed a few hundred times and shredded into pieces, the green-eyed monster named Dave. If it weren't for him, I would be at the spa now and enjoying Maverick's money spending of forty-nine million.But no. I'm here now almost scratching my face on the blackened white tiles. I can only imagine Dave's face as I leisurely brushed his face on the floor. When I was finished, I rested for a while while eating a watermelon. I glanced at the wall clock. It's past ten o'clock in the evening. I put my elbows on the kitchen table and ate the fruit while wiping my sweat. I want to take a bath right at this instant but I still need to rest for a few minutes.I looked over my place and smiled. It's back to its tidy and order for

"How's it going?""It's going smooth.""Come on, be honest to me, Femella."She sighed on the line."I'm suffering right now. I don't know what to do anymore! I hate this! I want to quit this and go somewhere else and change my identity! I feel so powerless. I'm starting to doubt myself. I wanted to end this so badly, Rowald. I do not have anyone by my side. It's hard. Lagma Rey is not someone I should go against. Not with my current status now. I'm poor. I have no money, no connection. I don't have my family by my side. We had long been in the gutter. So I think this mission is impossible."I shifted in the wooden chair I'm sitting in and drank some water."Stick to the plan. Maverick has already fallen to you so you can now execute the plan. It's the only way that can work. Remember, time is our worst enemy here. If Lagma finds out about you, it will be game over.""No. I have long discarded the plan of using him to fu

"Dave, I'm in. How's your position?"I gave out my sweetest smile to the photographer who asked for my photo and gracefully shook my head to refuse. I made my way to the main area of the largest convention area in the country and got myself a glass of champagne from the passing waiter."I'm in my place and still looking for Lagma's room. The security here is so tight. I can't get in. I need more time."I sipped on my glass and seductively smiled at the Korean gentleman across from me. I already noticed that he was staring at me the moment I walked in the door. "It's okay. Go have all the time that you need. I will just enjoy here while I'm fishing for some monkeys. Perhaps meet some old friends. After all, it's a gala night organized by my clan's number one enemy.""Ok. I'm out."I touched my ear and simply turned off the hearing device attached to my earrings. I walked over to an empty poseur table and placed the gla

As soon as the elevator opened, I immediately grabbed Femella and kissed her. I leaned her across the wall on the side of the elevator and pressed myself against her body.How I miss her soft skin against mine, the taste and warmth of her lips kept me awake every night while being away. Her heavenly scent is enough for now to quench my thirst for the last week.I squeezed her exposed thigh and snaked it to my waist."No one will look for you at the party?" she asked while catching for air."Who?" I traced the outline of her lips. "Remember the woman you're with?" Her eyes are saying more things."Forget about her. You're far more important."I wrapped her legs around her waist and started walking towards my room. She grabbed my shoulders and bit my neck hard. I moaned. My pants tightened even more in confinement.I scanned my palm over the door-lock and it automatically opened.I pushed the door shut with my foo

"You're officially mine starting tonight."I looked at Maverick from the reflection in his bedroom mirror. He is on the end of the bed drinking alcohol. I continued to comb my hair. We just finished taking a shower together.He let me borrow his shirt and boxer again. It was like I was back on the island again. "And then what?"I saw him straighten up."What do you mean?""What will happen after I say yes? Endless dates? Knowing stages? Unlimited sex? And then what? You'll dump me right after you're done with me. Why would we go through all that when we could easily end it this instant, Mav."He drained the contents of his glass and laid it on the side table. Maverick stood up and pulled me upright.We stood face to face with each other. The light coming from his lamp shade casted a shadow on his strained face."What is it this time, Femella?" His voice is hard and the restrained an

I had high hopes for tonight after spotting her in the crowd. I missed her. I wanted to go to her that instant and kissed her senseless. One week of being away from her is pure hell. I can barely concentrate.If I hadn't forced myself to finish a week's stay in Japan, I might have just flown in a jiffy and decided to go home. Cahil's presence didn't help either. She's just there to obviously annoy me all the time.She would always tease me about the girl in my lockscreen. I saved Femella's picture from my other phone to make it my lockscreen. Since discovering it, she's been nagging me to meet the girl who she said to be 'the one' for me. Femella just happened to be here. I planned all along to go to her apartment after I checked the event. The Asturia matriarch requested my presence for tonight. She is a dear friend of my mother so I was kind of forced. I also respect Cahil who has been my friend and childhood friend for a long time. But after
