SLOW. That’s the word that would best describe what Bullet was doing to her. Slowly, he caresses her skin. And ever so slowly, he kissed her lips. It was as if every move he makes was in slow motion.
While kissing, Bullet gently laid her to bed. Astrid felt his hand unbutton her shirt and she whimpered as cold air fanned her now uncovered chest. She anticipated his warm lips covering them but it didn’t happen. He took off his shirt, threw it away and just stared at her for a few seconds.
Astrid just had to feel his chest and hard-rock abs. He smirked as she run her hands from his shoulders down to his abdomen. He then lowered himself to her until his chest hair came in contact with her skin. He moved his upper body ever so slowly, teasing her senses even more and that made her arch her back, which caused him to close his eyes and groan.
“Don’t think about anything right now, please,” bulong ni Bullet sa pagita

“HEY,” Bullet whispered as he suddenly popped up behind her back. “Something wrong?”She was at the balcony to get that call early in the morning. Aside from the thick blanket that’s covering her body, she’s got nothing underneath. The sun was just about to rise and the wind was chilly. The fog that morning made the view of the mountains more spectacular than it already was.It has just been two days and as far as Astrid was concerned, it was the best two days of her life. Bullet should have gone back to Manila last night but he rescheduled it just to spend more time with her.He kept his promise to be with her and for Astrid, it was such as huge deal. He attended his meetings online and finished his paper works on his laptop. It was a nice feeling, spending the whole day and the entire night with Bullet. She could actually picture them like this someday, everyday.They’ve been like th

“I’M LEAVING,” Astrid said softly when Carl asked her why she rushed to the hospital late at night.It was almost ten in the evening when she paid him a visit at his hospital. Carl was busy in front of his laptop, still wearing his light blue scrubs and it was obvious that he had just finished a surgery. She was able to enter his office without him noticing and if she didn’t stand in front of him, he’d probably not notice her at all.It has been a week since she received his call about his mother’s heart bypass operation and she had to stay with her at the hospital until she got better. And now that his mother has gotten back to the Leopold ancestral house, she has finally got the courage to talk to Carl about the thing that she’s been delaying for a long time.And it has been a week since she last saw Bullet. He’s been calling her to ask how she was and when she’s coming back to him.And that is

THERE was a light drizzle that afternoon and the sky was dark as if it was forecasting heavy rain. Bullet looked closely at the woman next to him and smiled at her.Astrid was wearing a simple white boho fringe dress and white sandals. Her ivory-colored lace headband perfectly matched the Peace Lilies with Baby’s Breath bouquet she’s holding. Bullet, on the other hand looked casual but sharp with his dark blue heathered sweatshirt, light brown khakis and classic white sneakers.He offered his arm to her without saying a word. Smiling, Astrid automatically linked her arm to his and slowly walked down the aisle of the chapel.Though being one of the oldest in the mountain, the chapel has an inviting feel to it. Its white-painted stone walls and cold marble floors captured the crisp breeze of the afternoon.The chapel was empty. No colorful flowers, no sweet-smelling burning candles. There was nothing fabulous, nothing that

AFTER 4 YEARS...“HAPPY?”“Why shouldn’t I?” Astrid replied softy without looking at the man beside her. They were sitting at the wooden bench at the balcony of the 10th floor of the hospital.He shrugged. “I’m sure you’re missing your old life back in Manila since we moved. Your students, your friends. Even your coffee shop, I’m sure you’re missing it a lot.”Astrid didn’t have to answer the question because they both know that it is the truth. It has been four years since they moved to Boston and not a single day that she didn’t miss her old life, her old self. It wasn’t easy for her to stay in their marriage because it meant for her to leave everything behind, including her heart. But she didn’t have a choice. Being married to a Leopold was definitely not a walk in the park and defying the rules has its consequences.

SO, why did she come to Boston with Carl?Because he didn’t give her a choice, really. He told her that if she really didn’t want to go, she must talk to his mother, explain the whole situation. That means telling the poor old woman that she wanted an annulment, and that she’s having an affair - something her conscience couldn’t take.Oh well, he actually gave her a choice - to stay married or run away with Bullet and forget everything, including the deteriorating condition of Carl’s mother, who has been nothing but a darling.Astrid didn’t know what to expect when she came back to Manila from Baguio. Bullet wanted to come with her and talk to Carl. He’s even willing to beg him to set her free but she didn’t permit him. The situation was already complicated as it is and she’s certain that it will just make matters worse. She should know. Carl may be the most respected and compassionate

They usually have barbecue parties in the pool area, which always filled their home with tons of children’s laughter.After the funeral of Dona Margareth, she returned to teaching preschoolers. Luna Serene has just turned five and will soon start kindergarten. She can now read short sentences and spell simple words and she’s certain that her daughter won’t have a difficult time adjusting.She also went back to managing the coffee shop. Carl insisted that she keeps it despite her refusal. It was his way to make up for everything that he’s done, and didn’t do. She was thankful, of course but somehow, she felt as if she didn’t deserve everything.He let her do anything and go wherever she wanted. He let her live her ol

BULLET stood in the kitchen doorway, just staring at her as she’s preparing their breakfast. She was wearing silk shorts, too short that it covers too little. Her top was loose and thin with really tiny straps, which shows her shapely bosoms. He immediately felt his manhood react, just looking at her.He has known her for just over a month but it felt a lot longer than that. He met Audrey at an office function in L.A. and since then, they’ve been inseparable especially when they found out that they were actually working for the same corporation. She’s just supposed to be a ‘fling’ but as he has gotten to know her more, he realized that she’s more than just a pretty face.He came closer to her and hugged her gently from behind.“Hi, there, handsome,” she greeted as a respond to his kisses on her neck. “It’s still early, why are you up?”He didn’t say anything but

IT was almost eight in the morning, the first Friday of the month and his first week at their Manila office. It’s also his first week as one of the new account executives of ECA Publishing Group, a new publisher and distributor of children’s books based in Los Angeles. So far, so good. It was actually better than he had anticipated.He didn’t want to accept the position at first because taking the job means having to go back to Manila, which was the last thing he wanted. He has managed to live in L.A. for many years and he actually loved it. But aside from the fact that it was indeed a good opportunity, there’s this part of him that’s telling him that seven years were probably long enough to forget.Forget? Well, not really. For Bullet, there are certain things that’s just impossible to forget.Coming to L.A. was never part of his plans. He’s satisfied with his job as a business consultant in Manila, des
