"Lucas," I gasped as he continued to explore my femininity using his tongue. I grabbed his head and tried to pull it away from my intimate area. My body was trembling, my thighs were tensing, and my toes were curling from the sensations he was making me feel once again. "Release it, Aurora!" he commanded. As if he clicked the trigger in me, I release my juices out uncontrollably. I couldn't hold back anymore and let it all out, unable to stop it anymore. "Ahh..." I moaned as he touched me. I had just woken up, but now I was feeling sleepy again because of what he did. "Lucas!" I protested as he moved his fingers inside me, causing my body to jerk once more. He chuckled and slowly moved upwards. I couldn't bring myself to look at him when he tried to embrace me. I could feel his eyes waiting for mine to meet his, but I didn't oblige. "Do you want to swim?" he almost whispered. "You're infuriating," I replied with irritation, then pushed him away to get out from under him. "Wh

I woke up in the early morning due to the noise coming from what Lucas was watching."Have you been awake for a while now?" I asked him, slightly startled about him watching at this hour.He had a serious expression as he continued to watch. Not paying any attention to me, I shifted my focus to the front and watched the reason why he looked almost about to cry. His eyes were too red. "At the moment, the tragic events are still under investigation, and it's been revealed that the culprit behind the disappearance of underage children nationwide is none other than the infamous Red, who has been previously reported due to the disappearance of minors in various parts of the country," the news anchor reported.I raised my eyebrows and adjusted my posture. "Red," I said, and I turned to Lucas, but he was already on the phone.I couldn't confirm whether the Red I knew was the one being mentioned in the news, but based on Lucas's expression, it seemed likely that it was. I covered my mouth wh

I quickly got up from bed as if something was stirring in my stomach."Lucas," I called nervously when I saw him standing at the bathroom door. "You're home already," I added as I quickly washed my face to hide the puffiness of my eyes.I didn't catch him when I woke up. He was no longer by my side in bed. I had slept off my headache from earlier. It seemed I caught it when it started raining on Isla Juancho.The condo's door had already been replaced and was now completely secure, and he had complete trust in leaving me here alone. He couldn't leave earlier because he was worried that something unexpected might happen to me."Have you eaten?" I asked again when he didn't respond.I blinked when he felt my neck. "I bought medicine," he said and turned away."You didn't answer my question," I pressed as he left me in the bedroom."I passed by to get your food from outside so you wouldn't have to cook—" he started to say."I already cooked kare-kare," I interrupted him. I know he's bee

"Are you feeling well now?" Mommy asked when I found them in the dining room. They look like having a deep conversation. I mustered a weak smile. "I'm sorry for bothering you last night," I apologized. "What happened?" Daddy inquired, setting down the newspaper he was holding. I puffed up my cheeks, my eyes pleading as I looked at Mommy. I didn't know how to explain, and I also knew I had no coherent words to offer. Mommy shrugged, her shoulders sagging. I couldn't help but to sigh. I don't have a choice. "Did you have a fight with your husband?" "Lucas and I are getting a divorce. It's been approved," I replied, my response void of emotion. "What?" Daddy's eyebrows shot up in surprise. "What are you thinking, Aurora?" he questioned, clearly displeased with what he'd just heard. "When did this happen, and why didn't we know? You didn't tell us, or your mother." I could only swallow hard and bow my head. "Your relationship seemed fine, Aurora. How did it come to this?" Mommy a

My attention shifted to my cell phone when it vibrated. I glanced away from Lucas, who was wiping away tears from his eyes."Haze," I answered his call."Are you okay? Where are you? That damn bodyguard of Martin's," he said angrily."Can you come pick me up here—" "Stay away from him, Aurora," Lucas interjected after taking my cell phone and ending Haze's call.Instead of responding, I reached for my cell phone, which he had in his hand, but he pulled it away from me. I gave him a stern look. There was no sign on his face that he would return it to me."Give it back to me," I calmly requested."For what? So you can meet up with him again?" he asked. "No, you're staying here. You're not leaving my condo.""What's the problem if I want to meet him? Even if I want to have sex with him, it's none of your business— I'm hurting, Lucas," I said as he forcefully choked me."What did you say?" he seethed with anger.Fear consumed me as I saw the fury in his eyes."Lucas, let go of me," I str
