Risk It All Chapter 40.1
"Hah!" I exclaimed, satisfied, as the cold beer slipped down my throat. "This is so freaking refreshing!""Be honest with me, Brae. Have you been food and liquor-deprived for the past couple of months? Because why do you always eat and drink as if you've been so hungry and so thirsty for alcohol for years?" Caesar questioned with a chuckle."Try being a writer, and you'll know the answer to your question," I replied, my gaze fixed on the big sea in front of us and the cold wind blowing on my face. "I could even count on my fingers the nights where I had a decent sleep and a decent meal since I started writing that newly released novel of mine.""They did not give you a break?" Caesar inquired, his voice full of surprise."My break would be up to me, but I have a deadline to follow. And if I keep taking breaks, there is no way I will reach the deadline to submit my novels. So, I always choose to finish my novels first, then take a long break. But it's been a year since I have taken a l

“Are you being serious right now?” I exclaimed as Caesar pulled me towards the center of the crowd.“Yep.” He replied when he finally put a stop to pulling me, though his grip on my hand remained, not wanting me to run away, while turning his head from left and right to look at the joyous crowd around us. “Look at how everyone’s having fun by dancing and singing along.” He turned to me, a wide and happy smile spread across his face. “This is the kind of fun I want us to have.”“Since when did dancing become fun for you?” I asked with an annoyed look. “As far as I remember, you have two left feet.”“Another change.” He said while grinning from ear to ear. “Come on, stop being mad and dance!”“No.” I then tried to get out of the dancing crowd, but Caesar’s grip on my hand did not let me. I gave him a sharp stare. “Let go.”“Nope. Not letting you go. You are not going anywhere but here, dancing with me.” Caesar said while still grinning.I gritted my teeth in annoyance. “Caesar–”“No.” H

What seemed warm and bright and was striking on my face awoke me from my deep slumber.I groaned in annoyance as I tried to move around or cover my closed eyes with my hands, but for some unknown reason, my body felt heavy, so moving even for a tiny bit irritated me. And it's not only my body that is feeling heavy; so are my eyes.My eyes remained closed as my forehead knotted, and I couldn't help but groan once more.I really don't want to wake up yet, not only because of what’s going on with my body but also because I am still sleepy, and for an unknown reason again, I feel really tired even though I just woke up.But that warm and bright feeling on my face just wouldn't go away, so even if I wanted to go back to dreamland, that bright feeling wouldn't let me, forcing me to be fully awake.With a still-creased forehead, I groggily opened my eyes with my heavy hands still on top of them to serve as a shield for my eyes from something bright.My vision was blurred for a few seconds, a

"Did we use protection?" That was the first question that came out of my mouth after a long silence that enveloped me and Caesar.Caesar, who was staring at me and was about to say something after grabbing my hand and calling out my name, was dumbfounded after I dropped that question.His eyes widened, and his mouth was hanging. He has a look of disbelief on his face.“What?” He asked after a few moments of being speechless.“I'm asking you if we used protection last night.” I repeated my question.Honestly, I don't know why, out of everything I could say, I ended up dropping that question. I could have asked him to let go of my hand or that we should forget whatever happened between us, but instead, I ended up asking him whether we used protection or not. But on the other hand, I guess that was still a good question.I can't take the risk of an unwanted pregnancy.I looked at the bed and on the floor, and I immediately sighed in relief when I saw a couple of used condoms on the floor

"Brae...""I need to go to the restroom," I instantly said, not giving Caesar the chance to speak to me.It's been three days since that one-night mistake happened, and it has also been three days that I have been doing everything I can to avoid Caesar.If only it were possible, I would never want to see him again. If only I could end my vacation and just go back to work, but I can't. I have to be present at Raine and Tyler's wedding. So even though I don't want to see Caesar, I have no choice but to be around him every time Raine, Tyler, and our parents are around, acting as if nothing wrong had happened between the two of us since they knew nothing and I have no plans of telling them. But every time the two of us are left alone and he tries to strike up a conversation with me, I make any excuse not to talk to him.I don't even know what else he wants us to talk about when I already made it clear to him that I just want to forget what happened to us.

Caesar’s POV“You are one hell of a persistent bastard, aren’t you?” Tyler said as he stood beside me.I was leaning against the wall of the room that Brae and Raine were currently in. I was waiting for the room's door to open for Brae to get out so I could have the long-awaited conversation with her.This time, I won’t let her run away and avoid me anymore.“Are you aware that these past few days, you have been acting like a dog who keeps on waiting for his master to notice him? Look, you’re doing it again right now. Seriously, man. Aren’t you getting tired?”“Shut the fuck up, Tyler, and scram,” I told the annoying person beside me.

“Are you alright, Braelyn?” This sudden question from my mother caused the overflowing thoughts that are running inside my head. From staring absentmindedly at my plate and just playing with my food, I raised my head to look at my mother, who was staring back at me with a frown on her face. And my father was doing the same thing. The reactions on their faces are mixed with confusion and worry. “I am fine,” I dryly answered my mother. It was my father’s turn to ask. “Are you sure you’re fine?” I stared back at my food. “Hmm...” was my only answer in a small voice. My parents, who seemed to understand that I do not want them to pry anymore, stopped asking after that and continued to eat, though I can feel them glance at me from time to time, which made me sigh. Then I finally decided to just stop eating since I don’t have an appetite anyway. “You’re done eating?” My father asked when I stood while holding my plate. “Hmm,” I answered with a nod before proceeding to put my plate int
Risk It All Chapter 46.1
I was trying not to look at Caesar or pay attention to him, but I couldn't help myself, especially since the woman, who happened to be one of Tyler's cousins who had traveled all the way from the province to attend the wedding, was giggling nonstop and throwing compliments at Caesar, which sounded like her own form of flirting.One look at them, and everyone can already tell that the woman is interested in Caesar. The way she acts around him, clinging to him and never leaving his side as if she’s trying to claim her territory in case any of the women present try to flirt with Cesar, and her continuous giggling in a flirtatious manner is screaming, “I want this man, and I will have him at any cost.”As for Caesar, he seemed to not mind how the woman was acting toward him. He even seems to love the attention the woman is giving him.Is he not feeling hot or annoyed by how the woman coiled around him like a leech?If it were the high school Caesar, he definitely wouldn’t let that kind of
