Lahat ng Kabanata ng Town Secrets: Bandung: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 8

The scene currently displayed in front of Irene can only make her stomach drop. A woman is currently... having intercourse with what Irene could only describe as a beast. Its stature is gigantic, maybe about 3 to 3.5 metres tall, its whole body is covered in raven fur, sharp, yellow teeth poke out of its mouth, and its eyes are bright red. The beast doesn't seem to notice Kai and Irene's presence as it's busy with the woman it's currently having sex with."I'll explain later. You just sit here for a bit." Kai whispers and lets go of Irene.Kai then turns to face of whatever that beast is, muttering something under his breath before barging into the room. Irene can only watch helplessly as the beast nonchalantly throws the now unconscious woman away to deal with Kai. The beast stops pursuing Kai, however, as its blaring red eyes lock onto Irene's figure from behind the door.Irene can see Kai's confusion as he turns to try and call the beast, his insults and provocation falling on deaf

"It's so not like you to fuck up your routine." Aisya comments as she sits next to Irene during the 2-hour break they have between classes. "What happened?"Irene groans and buries her head in her arms, not wanting to talk about the fact she didn't sleep a wink last night due to what happened and has been paranoid all day after sensing someone or something has been stalking her for a while. She knows better than to dismiss whatever's stalking her as human, considering she hasn't been able to see whatever's been following her all morning."It's... nothing. Stuff happened yesterday, I wasn't able to get a good night's sleep." Irene finally answers after going through a few options on how to answer."Do... you want to talk to someone about said stuff?" Aisya asks wearily."I--""With me, most probably."Irene looks up to see Kai already standing next to her, opposite of Aisya. "Aisya, how have you been? Been a while since we last talked, huh?"Irene peeks over at Aisya and sees that her

Throughout the whole day, Irene can barely concentrate on her classes. One, the thing following her since morning continues to persist and frankly, it's annoying. Two, she continues to wonder how Safira and her friend are doing, she knows pregnancies can be unpredictable, what if Safira's friend suddenly goes into labour? Timing is very crucial in these cases. And three, Kai's been constantly in her mind ever since he said he would never be too busy for her and that he's not expecting any money from protecting her. If that doesn't sound like special treatment, she doesn't know what counts as special treatment."Irene?"Irene looks up to see Aisya looking at her, her eyes are full of worry as Aisya retracts her hand after tapping Irene's shoulder. "You haven't been well since you met up with Kai, is something wrong?" She asks."It's nothing, just... Kai. You know how he likes the paranormal and stuff and he's been bugging me about it since he found out I don't believe in them." Irene l

"What do you think of Kai?"Irene tilts her head confusedly at Theresa's question. "Kai? He's a friend." She answers, even as confused as she is."Just a friend?" Theresa asks again, trying to make sure Irene's telling the truth."Yes, just a friend." Irene answers, exasperated at Theresa's sudden question and interest in her relationship with Kai. "Why are you asking this anyway?""... Don't... don't think I'm reaching with my thoughts but... I think Kai may be interested in you."Irene sits up straight after hearing what Theresa said. "Tess, there's literally no way Kai's interested in me.""No, listen to me! He definitely is! Irene, he gave you a nickname and he's willing to call you!""Doesn't he have nicknames for other people?""Have you ever heard him call me by my nickname even though my name is long?"Irene stops to think about what Theresa said, it's true that Kai calls Theresa, Aisya, and Safira by their names and not what they prefer to be called. "Maybe he's just trying t
