Her Raging Flame Chapter 38
I've been staring at my cell phone for a few minutes now but I'm still not moving from standing in the middle of the living room. Dave's call had ended earlier but I was still looking at nothing. My heart is heavy with my choice.I glanced around Maverick's unit. On a corner is a display of his family pictures. There's a picture of the Fuentebella family and another picture of him on his graduation in college.I walked over to the area and picked up the picture frame. I caressed Maverick's smiling face. His smile is so wide that it radiates out from the picture. I didn't realize that I just smiled too.I remember what he told me earlier. He wants me to open up to him. But how am I going to do that if he still doesn’t want to hear me about what I know about his past? I know that I can't fully share my past with him without touching that memory.I sighed. "Mom, Dad. Why did you put me in this dilemma?"The ring of the phone broke the s

I got up from the bed and scratched my head. I'm sweaty and breathless as I'm having those episodes of nightmare again. My nightmare now was strange compared to the previous nights. I haven't woken up in the middle of the night for a few days. I usually wake up in the morning, and all I remember is the dream. I thought about my dream. The same girl in every dream is calling my name. She's asking for my help while a big man is dragging her out of the dented car. I tried to reach for her to help, but I couldn't move my whole body, which was stuck to the steering wheel. I was numb from the pain caused by our collision with a concrete barrier. I feel like I was so worthless during those times. I could do nothing but listen to the woman's faint cry. And then silence. I fought the urge to fall into sleep, but the numbness in my head is throbbing. I closed my eyes and welcomed the deafening silence. And then I woke up,

"Mav." I held him by the arm just as it was time to go down after the valet opened the limousine door. I glanced at the red carpet below us."Why? What's wrong? " This prompted the valet to close the door again. Mav gave me his full attention. He took my cold hand and rubbed it on his hand." Hey, look at me. What's wrong? "I first swallowed the blockage in my throat and fixed my perfectly made hair before responding."I'm scared. Can you just go ahead? It's like I'm going to throw up in here. Please?" I pleaded.He gave me a reassuring smile that sent his message that he understood me. "Nonsense. You don't have to worry. My family is kind, especially my mother. They will love you like I do." He cupped my face while his fingers were caressing my cheek. "And besides, I'll here all night for you. I won't leave you. Hell, I'll go with you, even in the powder room. "His hand went down to my neck and massaged it. "Relax. I won't leave you.

I immediately started to maneuver my Ford Mustang when Luther lowered the race flag. Cholo did not give up and his Porsche also fired up and accompanied me on the race track.We have a close fight. There are times when he overtakes me, but I easily get the advantage again.I grinned when he lowered the window and shouted at me. "Dude, just chill! Don't take it too seriously! You might even burn your car. You'll have to pay me for that!""Keep on dreaming, man!" I shouted back.I changed my gears and accelerated my speed.

"So what do you think, Lagma? Do you accept my proposal?"He just watched me from his while leaning on the swivel chair. His face didn't change even a bit when I told him about the proposal.Finally he stood up, lit a cigarette and went back to his seat in his lavish office in a high-rise building."I'll just repeat what you said earlier because I may be deaf. Maybe it's an effect of my few days staying at the construction site." He inhaled the smoke and puffed it to the side. "You want me to release Trisha in your place. You want to take your sister's place in exchange for her freedom, am I right?"I smiled at him and folded my arms. "Right. You got it too. So? What do you think? Besides, I really should be your target, right? Not Trisha."He emitted smoke again, this time on my face. I covered my nose."Yup, it's a very good proposal, I must admit. But I can't trade anything for you

As we were on our way to the airbase, I could feel the distance between the two of us. She is on the far side of the car seat while I was on the other. None of us talked to each other during the drive until we reached the destination. Almost at the same time we also got off and walked near the runway.Behind us were my men who were positioned in their places. I also have a security force all over the place in case the worst happens.I'm still angry at her for what she had decided to do without even saying it to me. And I will never allow her to do what she wants to happen. I have no intention of prolonging our quarrel today. I just wanted to give ourselves some space to think things out. What I can guarantee is the fact that there's definitely no break-up that will happen."Even if you reject me now, I'll still tell you the whole story about the past. I don't care if you don't want to listen. It's now or never, Mav."I slightly turned to Feme

Her eyebrows were raised and a fake smile was playing on her lips when I greeted Trisha. I breathed a sigh of relief to see that she was in good condition. In fact, she got a lot better than I remembered her years ago. It looks like Lagma takes good care of her because her beautiful complexion, hair, and expensive clothes cannot be mistaken.Who would have thought that she was kidnapped? It's like she's just coming back from an out of the country vacation.She looked at me sharply as I stopped in front of her."I see that you look well," I said and looked at her from head to toe.She reciprocated by also looking over me. "Why did you just let me out now? Eight years, Femella! You left me for eight years! It's good that you even thought of making a way to save me. I thought I was going to rot inside," she said in an annoyed tone.I crossed my arms and gave her a bored look. "You still haven't changed. Try harder, Trisha

That’s when my senses flared up. Danger. This man spells danger. He raised his hand and brought the cigarette he was holding to his mouth.
