ANGELO made sure that everything he needs is in his briefcase. He needs to make sure that his client will choose him as their system analyst. It was a big company, and if he gets hired, his salary will get higher, and he would be better known.He wanted to be independent. To make his father see that he is not just an outsider and that he is worth it to be a Vazquez.When he entered the club that was their meeting place, he immediately looked at the phone for the time. I’m still a little bit early. He sat down on a barstool and ordered a drink. Just one glass to get rid of his nervousness. Minutes later, a woman sat beside him. “Hey, alone?” she asked.Angelo flashed his infamous flirty smile at her. “Yeah, how ‘bout you?” “Not anymore.” The woman placed her hand on his thigh and seductively caressed it. “Want to buy me a drink?”“Sure. Order anything you want, and I’ll pay,” Angelo answered. There's still time before his client arrives, might as well get this woman a drink and finis

ANGELO woke up feeling lifeless. After what happened last night he even forced himself to sleep. I can’t believe he just left me like that.He is sure now that it is not a dream. For the first time in real life, he saw him in pleasure, and Angelo knows he wants more. More of his Nick.“Where is he? And what is he doing in the Philippines? ” he asked himself.What happened last night suddenly entered his mind. That Mr. Chua is obviously bad news. For the first time, he encountered people in such a state, and truth to be told, he felt scared, really scared. Fortunately, Nick was there. Speaking of that man, was he there for him? Or was it just plain coincidence?Angelo was in the middle of his thoughts when his phone suddenly rang. Random number?“Hello?”(Oppa!) Angelo’s brow furrowed. Oppa? “Who is this?”(Ouch! You forgot me? You're so mean! Anyways, are you with D?)“D? Oh!” Realization dawned on him. “Narae?”(That’s me! The prettiest friend of your KJ sister.)Angelo laughed sof

ANOTHER day without his presence. Angelo can't understand if Narae and Anurak have a lot of confidence in Charles' safety or if they just don't care.“You worry too much, I’m sure he’s fine.” Angelo just shook his head when he remembered what Narae always said.How am I not supposed to worry if it has been months since I last saw him? Even his sister, Wynter, had no news of the man.“Merry Christmas, Oppa!” Narae greeted him with a tight hug before letting him go. He let out a low chuckle. “That's still next week, Narae.” The lady pouted. “But I’m excited. It's our first time celebrating together, plus Dom called An this morning. He’s finally done with his work.” She slowly walked away.Angelo stared at nothing. He’s coming back? Finally! He couldn't remove the smile on his face. For sure they will meet tomorrow for the Christmas Party.ANGELO woke up early like he did not sleep late last night. He was so excited to be able to attend DAWN's Christmas Party. Well, that’s one of the r

THE elevator ride seemed too long for Charles as panic and worry consumed his body and mind. He was internally panicking while standing, and for three years, he almost cursed the elevator.Charles thought that they'll meet at LUST DAWN, so he was in such a hurry to drive when it became clear that he was being sent to Wynter's unit.He didn't know what to think, but he was sure that he was the one to blame. If he hadn't been following Angelo, even if it was secretly, he wouldn't have been in his current situation.When he parked the car earlier, he received a text from Wynter, which made him even more worried and hurried into the elevator.After what seemed to be an eternity, the elevator door opened and Charles rushed his way to Wynter's unit. He hadn't even knocked when Wynter opened the door.He was expecting her to cry but her cold expression made him shiver. Wyn widened the door so that he could enter. He was stunned as he saw her laptop on her coffee table. It was facing them so

WAKING up for the second time only to be beaten up and lose consciousness was building up the fear inside Angelo. He wanted to be brave and forget what he experienced back then to plan a counterattack or at least an escape plan. He knew he wasn't his sister who knew every martial art there is in the world, but still, he wanted to save himself. Though discouraged, Angelo wished that Wynter knew that he was missing, in order to save him. He remembered the guy a while ago saying something about the Vazquez’. Long lost son? Me? This would probably be something about their father because that’s the only connection he could think of.For the third time, Angelo had his consciousness back. He was scared that he might get beaten up again but thankfully they didn't. The relief of his breathing earlier was suddenly replaced with nervousness now when he saw the man in front of him cocking his gun and then pointing it at his head.All Angelo could do was groan in pain. He didn't have the strengt
