Agad na napangiti si Belle nang magising siya dahil sa magagaang paghalik sa kanyang balikat. “I want to sleep some more,” she protested in a hoarse voice, her eyes still closed. “C’mon babe, wake up. It’s already over lunch,” ani Zyrone sa kanya, habang pinaglalandas ang labi nito sa kanyang h***d na dibdib. She automatically arched her back when he brushed his tongue on one of her still sensitive peaks. She gasped as the cool air traced the wetness his tongue had left on her skin. They just spent the whole night making love and yet, the heat of passion between them cannot seem to subside. One kiss cannot seem to suffice. They need to have a taste of each other, feel each other until they both surrender to the frenzied passion over and over. She groaned and opened her eyes when his fingers gently traced her slit. He delved two of his fingers inside her while her thumb played with her knub. Heat flowed through her core in an instant. And she knew at that moment, sleep was the last

"When did you arrive?" tanong ni Drew kay Belle nang umalis na si Tita Lee Hua. Drew volunteered to look after Lee Ann so that the old woman could go home and sleep."About an hour and a half ago," aniya. Tumango-tango si Drew bago hinayon ng tingin ang kaibigan niya na noon ay wala pa ring malay na nakahiga sa hospital bed. He fell silent for a while. Bakas ang lungkot sa mukha ito habang nakatingin kay Lee Ann.May bandage ang magkabilang kamay ni Drew. There’s also a long gash on his right arm covered by gauze. Marahil natamo nito nang iligtas nito si Lee Ann sa sunod. But that didn’t keep him from gently reaching for Lee Ann’s free hand.Hindi niya napigilan ang mapakunot-noo dahil sa ginawi nito. There was also an unspoken fear in his eyes and something more-- an emotion that looked so powerful but she cannot name. At sigurado siya, sa maraming taon ng pagpapalipad-hangin ni Drew sa kanya, he had not gazed at her the way he’s looking at Lee Ann now.“She and Victor had a fight,

Belle anxiously drum her fingers on the table as she await for Drew at the coffee shop just below where his condo building was. Doon nila napagkasunduang magkita. Malapit lang iyon sa Angelicum Hospital kung saan naka-confine si Lee Ann.She was anxious not just because Drew was late, but she's also thinking about Marco, whom she asked to get something from her house in Brgy. Happy Village. Alam niya kasi na hindi na ito papayag na makipagkita siya kay Drew outside the hospital. Kaya naman ginawan niya talaga ng paraan na mapaalis ito upang makausap niya si Drew. At nag-aalala siya dahil late si Drew, baka makabalik na ang bodyguard niya sa ospital pero hindi pa rin niya nakakausap si Drew! Mabilis siyang sumulyap sa wrist watch niya. It's almost lunch. Zyrone will call her by the next hour. If she really wanted to talk to Drew, she better make it fast dahil kung hindi, mabubuking na siyang talaga sa kanyang pagtakas.She was about to bring out her phone from her purse when someone cl

Bumaling si Belle sa labas ng sasakyan kung saan siya nakalulan. Nasa Nevada na siya at pauwi na sa mansiyon ng mga Craog. Marco arranged that car himself dahil biglaan ang naging pag-uwi niya sa Nevada. Kung hindi nga lang siya nagpatulong kina Vincent at Drew na hanapan siya ng private plane na magbabalik sa kanya pauwi ng Nevada, baka hanggang ngayon, nasa Pilipinas pa rin siya. Hindi pa rin niya kasi nagawang tawagan si Zyrone. When she tried calling Treyton or Ivy, all they say was that Zyrone was working and cannot be disturbed. And honestly, she found the excuse just pure bullshit, for lack of a better word. Paanong hindi? Kahit siya na asawa hindi ito puwedeng istorbohin? What kind of bull of an excuse is that? Pa’no kung may emergency? Pa’no kung kailangan niya si Zyrone, sila ng anak niya? Pa’no kung— She released a slow breath and secretly shook her head. Halos buong flight na siyang gigil at masama ang loob sa asawa. And she knew, she must not let the negativity get th

They say a picture is worth a thousand words.. But out of a thousand words, there is only one truth. And Belle is determined to let Zyrone know the truth about those pictures. Nanginginig ang mga kamay niyang pinulot ang picture na nasa paanan niya at ang iba pa na nasa malapit lang niya. She carefully studied each and realized that the pictures were not taken just on the day she almost fainted while she was with Drew. Kasama na rin doon ang mga pagkakataong nakikipag-usap siya kay Drew sa loob ng hospital suite ni Lee Ann. Was she stalked? Malakas siyang napasinghap at nag-angat ng tingin kay Zyrone. Her husband’s eyes were still in hers, void of any emotion. “D-did you have someone…stalk me?” she asked just above whisper. The hurt she was feeling was so overwhelming that she found it hard to speak and even breathe. “I didn’t,” he answered indifferently. “But fortunately, someone did. Those pictures were day sent anonymously in my office the other day while you were having a swe
