Lahat ng Kabanata ng Aphrodite: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

 Before I begin the tale, let us bow our heads or raise our hands. Whatever your belief, close your eyes even for a minute and pray to be guided, and pray to never be as deceived and misled as Aphrodite got deluded.  Turn around now, leave this book behind and never open it again for it is bad luck on your soul.  It has been foretold that once you begin to read the tale of Aphrodite you are unable to stop until the very end.  If you are still reading, I say you are either very brave or very stupid. I pray for you...  May God have mercy on your soul She had skin as dark as midnight when the moon is covered by dark night clouds; her skin is as dark as midnight when not a single star is

I was sitting in my carriage, listening to the wild loud trot of my horses as I was led through the town. I looked outside, watching the people we strode by before I looked at Lydia, "these people, Lydia, why do they keep looking and waving at the carriage?" I asked her. "Because they know it is you," she answered me as she sat her hands delicately in her lap, sitting in the far corner of the carriage and I frowned at that. She was not just a servant, and she was not just my lady in waiting, she was my only friend. "Lydia, what have I told you?" I warned her, and she scooted out of the corner, immediately relaxing against the plush soft seats. "Are you not nervous, Aphrodite?" she asked me and I looked back outside, watching the children run along the side of the carriage until they could not keep up. "Being nervous is a positive thing," I responded, "I shall do my best to-

"God has truly favoured me," Sebastien said as I emerged from behind the curtain, but this time I did not jump from surprise. This time, I looked up at him, fighting a smile. "Do you make it a habit to sneak from behind curtains in theatres, Sebastian?" I asked him, watching as he took off his hat once again. His hat covered his face for a second before he slid it down to his chest, but between his teeth was a single red rose. I smiled, unable to contain it as he removed the rose from his teeth and then looked at me, handing it to me with an over dramatic bow, "for the Goddess," he told me as I took the rose from him. "I thank you, Sebastian," I said kindly as I held the rose, smiling down at it, "but I must get going," I said to him, afraid of getting into trouble with Lydia since she had seemed displeased when she found the daffodil.

After the performance, at the sound of the outrageous applause I made my way backstage. I walked down the stairs and as I turned the corner, Master Abigor was awaiting me. I walked up to him and accepted his arm, resting my hand casually and as ladylike as I could. My heart pounded against my chest and I feared that he could hear it and it might anger him. "Master Abigor," I paused as I looked up at him but he did not stop walking, he gently pulled me along and I glided on the ground, almost as though my feet were not touching it, "I must apologize for what happened. I seek your forgiveness, Master." He slowly turned his neck, his face looking down at me and I sucked in a breath, forgetting how enchanting his eyes really were. They sucked me into a deep and dark world, "you are to ride with me to-night," he simply responded, And when I looked to the carriage, I noticed that it was not my carriage. My carriage was a gold, led by white S

I was shaken up following my conversation with my Master. I could still feel his hands on my thigh. The tight grip of his cold hand on my warm and dark thigh was driving me insane. My stomach tightened into knots as I remembered what he had growled so savagely into my ear. There was a strange feeling in between my legs, one that I did not understand, but it came as a result of his words. Master Abigor was sinful. That, I stand by. The man was made of sin, he was covered in sin- he was sin, that is all that I can say. "Are you relieved that you have no more singing concerts for the rest of this month?" Lydia asked me, snapping me out of my thoughts. She along with my ladies in waiting were dressing me and getting me ready for the day. To-day was only supposed to be a day of relaxation but Master Abigor wished me to attend some special occasion, so
