By the time dinner was over, Ella was mad at Dylan for leaving her behind with those women who kept throwing questions at her, questions that were enough to make her blush to the roots of her hair. He was the one who gave them a confirmation and he cowardly ran off and left her to deal with it.    The floorboards creaked as Ella stepped onto the boardwalk leading to the self-contain Milagros had prepared for them. She could feel her cheeks warming as she recalled the rose petals littered on the four-poster bed and the smug reaction on Dylan’s face told her he liked it.    When she stepped into the half-lit room, she let out a disgruntled groan when she spotted Dylan sprawled on it.With the way he spread on it, he left no room for her even if they were going to sha

 Much later, she strolled around the garden outlined by towering trees and sweet-scented flowers, it was like nothing Ella’s ever seen before.Somewhere here, she could actually forget about real life outside of these shrubbery  even for a few days, she could relax and let the melodious singing birds take all of her worries.    Right now, it’s just about her, about…     ‘’Beautiful isn’t it?’’ a low dark sexy voice she knew so well by now purred into her ears just as a pair of long manicured fingers laced through hers, with it came the enormous pounding of her heart.        Her eyes shot open to meet his smiling gaze having no idea s

 It was later that afternoon and Dylan was standing in front of a bistro where Doña Bianca had arranged a blind date for him. Of course he couldn’t refuse especially when she’s hell-bent on the possibility of him being disinherited. She knew Don Fernando too well to know that no threat ever went unexecuted and she just couldn’t sit back and watch her only son get cut off from the family’s money. He was entitled to it no matter what.    Doña Bianca had come up with a splendid idea Dylan couldn’t refuse, urging him to make the marriage temporary–at least two years–offering that his grandfather w

  His messy black hair was the first thing Ella saw, she knew something was up; probably his father, and in an instant she felt his pain.She moved towards him in slow and noiseless steps but that didn’t stop the pigeons from being frightened and taking to the air.She saw a little girl talking to him and then she gave him a stem of lily, he ruffled her hair and she ran off.    It was when he stood up to go that he saw her right in front of him. He didn’t need to wonder how she got there without him realising, she was Ella after all and she was always sneaking up on him when they were younger.    They didn’t say a word and their gazes wouldn’t leave each other’s. he moved so fast that

When Ella said nothing, Lani huffed in frustration, this friend of hers was as stubborn as a mule.      But she understood her well of course, because at one point in her life she had felt the same way; that was right after the person she loved the most walked out on them–her mother.     She’d always wondered what excuse the woman had for doing what she did or maybe her ambitions had gotten the best of her. But in spite of all that, Lani never lost hope that her mother would eventually come back to them. But she never did, and now sadly Lani would never get to hear her reasons because all they got was her corpse. Lani blinked back rapidly at the tears that were stinging her eyes.
