All Chapters of Slaved: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE Mabilis s’yang naglakad papunta ng table ko. Inilapag n’ya ang tray without even glancing at me. “I’m not judging any of you. I’m not a judger! Pero ‘wag naman live porn, jusko!” Napa-face palm pa s’ya. Inabot ko iyong ballpen sa pen holder ko na may design resemblance ng haute couture. My friend from Paris gave it to me. Ibinato ko iyon sa kanya. Nakatakbo s’ya papuntang pinto. Muli s’yang lumingon. She stuck her tongue out. “I’m giving you permission to do it in your office, pero please lang, walang bakas o anumang kalat!” she said before she leave me with the devil. “Miles Janine, you’re so fired!” I hissed. The door is closed. She probably didn’t hear me. I stiffened, I felt his lips tracin

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE Is the wall high enough? That’s the first thing that came in my mind. Matatag ba? Hindi basta - basta mabubuwag kahit anong bagyo ang dumaan? It is unknown otherwise, tested. Huminga ako nang malalim. Wearing my oversized round and tinted Dolce and Gabbana’s sunglasses, I walked inside a private cafe with grace and confidence. Kahit nanginginig ang buong katawan ko, I won’t let anyone see it. No one. People looked at my direction with arching eyebrows, some are awed. I was just wearing a black button tuxedo blazer dress I made for myself and a Jimmy Choo’s latest pointed toe t-strap stiletto. “Sino s’ya?” I heard them mumbling. The song Dangerous Woman is playing in the background while I enter the damn place to meet with someone. It’s like I am in the runway gracing them wi

Pamilyar na pamilyar ang galaw n’ya. Pamilyar ang kabuuan lalo na iyong pagcle-clench ng kanyang panga ultimo iyong paglalakad with oozing confidence and appeal. He looks dangerously handsome. Wala na iyong playful and naughty aura n’ya. Ilang babae na kaya ang na-devirginize n’ya? Bigla - bigla na lang pumasok sa isip ko.   Of course, I’m talking about Sioux Kyros Centauri. The only incarnation of a living Greek god.   Medyo nakaramdam ako nang pagka-inis ng tuluyang luminaw iyon sa paningin ko. Andito naman pala s’ya sa Pilipinas, but he didn’t even come to see me. Wait?! Ano naman ngayon? It’s not his responsibility to do so! Mas lalo akong na-irita sa naisip ko.   Bakit ba parang apektado ako? Naiinis akong sumunod sa kanya kahit pinigilan ko ang sarili ko.   Napasinghap ako nang makapasok ako sa parking lot. It’s not an ordinary parking lot, that’s what I’m sure of. It’s parking lot for the

CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN   Bumaling ang tingin ko sa daan. I can’t enjoy the streetlights. Mayroong bumikig sa lalamunan ko at nakakabingi ang katahimikan. Alam ko na ang kahihinatnan nito. Buo na ang loob ko. Ilang beses akong huminga nang malalim.   Tinapunan ko siya ng tingin. Sioux looked deadly serious, he was clenching his jaw. Mabigat na mabigat ang hawak niya sa steering wheel. Wala ni isa sa amin ang nagsasalita.   Mabilis naming narating ang Reign’s Realm. I’m not sure what I am doing at this hour. Busy myself with work? Probably.   Ilang sandali nang nakatigil ang sasakyan pero hindi pa rin ako makagalaw. I sighed again.   Tinanggal ko ang seat belt at tinatagan ko ang mukha ko.   “Let’s not see each other again.” malamig kong sabi.   “Why?” he asked in a dangerous tone.   Hinarap ko siya at pi

CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE I was staring at my violin’s case for a long time. Nahanap ko ito habang naglilinis ako ng kwarto ko sa mansyon ni Richard Sy. It was the same as before. Mukhang alaga siya ni Manang, hindi ito gaanong maalikabok. Violin reminded me of my childhood. I used to have recitals and join contests back then. And I always won. I’m very competitive, that’s for sure. I hated losing. Well, it’s a stereotype for a Chinese family. I must be good at everything. I should play at least one instrument, that’s not even enough for some. Tapos kailangan magaling sa lahat. A+ ang grades sa lahat ng subject. But it didn’t matter to me now. Even before I love bitching out people. I wanted to instill fear to my playmates para hindi sila annoying. Napailing ako. I almost lost this violin, sinampal ko sa kaklase kong lalaki dahil ang ingay niya. Binuksan
