Lahat ng Kabanata ng Kiss in the Shadows: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

Ventriloquist One week has passed. Until now, Fiore hasn't explained anything to me. I had a hint that the woman was one of his business investors, Ms Aicheng. But why did she hug Fiore like that? Why the heck did she kiss him on his lips?"Mir, are you done?" Fiore called me. I'm inside the bathroom looking at myself in front of a mirror."Just a minute," I answered but couldn't move.It's been a week. Fiore went back and forth to his so-called project. He hasn’t fulfilled any promised dinner ever since. I constantly eat alone. After he drinks his coffee in the morning, he will leave immediately. He's always in a hurry. And he never even kisses me before storming off. Often, he would come home when I was already asleep. We haven't

The Truth I laughed quietly at myself. What a fool I was to still have feelings for Xylon. This unexplainable sensation that I couldn't fathom until now. "Stop talking, Xyle! It was never your fault," I said without looking at him. "You still have feelings for Fiore. I should not have insisted in the first place." "You didn't force me." "Still, I took advantage of you.""I'm not a wimp because I can fight if I want to!" I let out a sigh. Truth be told, whatever that thing is? It was memorable for me. If I was sorry for what happened between us back then, the night we spent

Displeasure If I could only see my reflection in a mirror, I know that my cheeks were red as a cherry. My chest throbbed so fast I couldn't properly breathe."Kuya! I thought you’re arriving tomorrow?" Sheena hugged him. As if they hadn't seen each other for a long period. Xylon returned the hug.I began to wonder why she called him ‘Kuya’. ‘Does that mean they're siblings? Xylon was Sheena’s brother?’"They gave me the contract earlier than expected so I went here straight away." A deep voice coming from him sent shivers down my spine that I couldn't move from where I was standing.His eyes settled on me. I turned to Camish who was also looking at me with a

Love Him “Have you met him before, Angel?" Camish's question bewildered me.I couldn't focus on Xylon's serious expressions or the protruding muscles in his arms."Uh... Of course not!" I flatly refused. "It's my first time at this resort. How is it possible that I would have known him?" I mustered the courage to confront Xylon. "I don't know who you are, mister. Also, please don't follow me around like a dog. You're getting on my nerves."Xylon smirked at me. "Who said I was following you? Miss, you’re blocking my way...” Then he walked ahead of us.I was filled with embarrassment. I tried to catch him and when I was already standing next t

Pathetic When he saw Xylon, the dog immediately stood up. It is, without a doubt, his pet. And there was no way the jitters would go away after I admitted to myself that I harboured a feeling for him."How's it going, son? Did you get the contract? How was your piece? Tell me, what happened?" Mother Nena asked vigorously. She was clutching his son's arm.When Xylon cast a brief glance my way, I averted my gaze. I couldn't even look him in the eyes anymore."Mom, you were right. They liked it so much that they proposed I sign a two-year contract..." he announced."Is that true? That's great! You've been wanting to do this for a long time, haven't you?" Mother Nena's reactions were filled with joy for her son. I
