SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV The rear heavy hand landed a cross-impact on my left face and jawline, followed by a jab, resulting in the classic one-two combo. F*ck. I relaxed my neck muscles in order to maintain my strength and guarantee that my muscles in my hands were ready to respond against successful blows from the enemies. The power of my blows on his face and body caused him to bounce back and forth like a speed bag in all its splendor. Soon enough, he met the ground. Hindi pa ako nakuntento kaya ilang beses ko pang sinipa ang lecheng pagmumukha niya. Naisahan ako ng gago. Napahawak ako sa panga ko. Agad akong napangiwi nang maramdaman ang sakit. I licked my bottom lip and I felt the familiar sweet taste of blood on my wound. Napatingin ako sa likod ko nang maramdaman ang mga bagong presensiya. I spit on the ground and created a smirk before attacking another bunch of weak men.

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV   "So, where do you want to go, my lady? Somewhere hot or cold?" si Aeron nang matapos na ang tawag.   "I’m fine with anything." Kumalas ako sa yakap niya at nilagay sa center table ang phone ko.   "Sa malamig na lang na lugar para oras-oras tayong magpapainit."   "Are you f*cking insane?" Napailing-iling ako at nagtungo sa banyo para makaligo na. Papasok din sana si Aeron pero agad ko nang isinara ang pinto sa pagmumukha niya. Leche. Gusto palagi na lang nakadikit sa akin. Nakakairita na.   "Any plans in the afternoon, Dee?" Aeron asked in the middle of our lunch.   Saglit akong napatingin sa kanya. I put down the fork and knife I'm holding and clasp my hands together, putting my chin on it. Nginuya ko muna ang pagkain na nasa bibig ko pa bago siya sinagot.   "You." Bigla siyang nabilaukan kaya n

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV Nakarating kami sa upper level at agad nakatanggap ng assistance. We're in a VIP suite, so every move we make is assisted and monitored to keep us secure and comfortable. Nang makaupo sa nakalaan na table sa amin ay agad kaming nilapitan ng private chef na para din sa amin. I took off my sunglasses, as did Aeron, in order to examine the entire area. Everything is posh, warm, and clean. Talagang alagang-alaga ng may-ari ang lugar, maging ang mga dumadayo rito. "We’re just going to get our food to the buffet," I told the chef. "Thank you." Only few tourists are here for their vacation too, kaya hindi masyadong crowded at maingay. The atmosphere has a really relaxing effect. Hindi naman ganoon kahirap makibagay, I guess. Besides, the purpose of this one-week break is to feel comfortable as normal and unproblematic couple. So, kahit papaano ay dapat ma

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV "Why are you following us?" I put my both hands on the trash bin, closed my feet together and deliver a strong kick on his massive chest. Natumba agad siya. Naglakad ako palapit sa kanya at kinuwelyuhan siya. "Who do you work for?" Isang suntok ay nginisihan niya lang ako. "Answer me, f*cker!" Sunod-sunod ang pinakawalan kong suntok, kaliwa’t kanan. Nang makita ko kung gaano na karami ang lumalabas na dugo sa mukha niya ay tumigil na ako. I stood up. Tiningnan ko ang kamao ko bago siya binigyan ng sipa. "Do you know who am I?" Tumigil ako nang umubo siya ng dugo habang nakahawak sa tiyan niya. "Hindi ka ba talaga magsasalita? Kalalaki mong tao ang hina mo. Tsk." Tinalikuran ko siya at handa na sanang maglakad paalis nang maramdaman ko ang kamay niya sa dalawa kong paa. What the hell? Before I knew it, my face met the ground in just one blow. Nakabangon

SENA ALLISA MCMILLAN POV It’s Anderson’s hand. Kilalang-kilala ko ang hugis ng kamay ni Anderson at ang mga singsing na sinusuot niya. That hand inside the glass vase with water that became bloody red because of the blood is clearly Anderson’s. Hindi ako puwedeng magkamali o mamalik-mata lang. Gayunpaman, gusto kong paniwalaan ang isang ilusyon na kamay lang iyon ng isa sa mga kalaban na lumusob dito. F*ck. What did they do to him? What happened? Bigla akong napahawak sa ulo ko nang biglang bumalik sa alaala ko ang nangyari sa foster parents ko. They snipped their tongue. They made them suffer before taking their lives. And I was able to witness the horrible and brutal murder of those sick bastards to my second family once more, and Anderson was there to save me. He... saved me several times, but I couldn't save him when he needed it the most, and seeing his hand ma
