Chapter eleven
Alex dropped me off back at my apartment the next day because I also needed to prepare the things we will use. Fortunately, it's good timing this week since we don't have classes due to consecutive holidays in the country, especially after the events at the University I attend.I didn't know if it was just perfect timing or if I was simply lucky when I was with Alex. He would pick me up later in the afternoon because our flight was at night, so I had plenty of time to prepare. I had already cleaned my apartment and taken out the trash.When I stepped outside, I was greeted by the warmth of the sun. It was already nine in the morning, so it was quite hot. People were busy with their activities; even my neighbors in the apartment building were outside doing laundry, while others were preparing for work and classes.Unfortunately, I don't have anyone close here except for Nanay Nelya because I rarely go out; I'm always confined here.When I approached the garbage bin, I bumped into a woma

My mouth remained open in awe as we arrived in Hawaii. From what I heard, we were on Maui Island, a popular destination for tourists because of its stunning landscapes and golden sandy beaches.I tried to keep a straight face and not smile, but to be honest, I wanted to kneel down and roll in the sand while taking pictures. However, I didn't want to embarrass myself, especially since such behavior didn't seem fitting with Alex. He was dressed casually, but the attention from other women never seemed to fade. I felt like I was just his maid, even though I was dressed quite elegantly today."I tried to wear something that would match Alex's style, even though it wasn't really my taste. Shena had told me that sleeveless outfits suited me well because of my toned shoulders, and I ended up looking like a rich man's daughter, so that's what I'm wearing today.When we arrived at the resort, we went straight to the reservation area to drop off our things in the room that Alex had booked. We ha

Our conversation was abruptly cut short when Alex appeared in front of us."Isabella, darling, I've been looking all over for you," Alex said as he approached us. My eyes flickered with surprise, but I quickly masked it with a smile. "Alex, this is Michael. I know you two are acquainted. We were just talking about his travels."Alex nodded and looked at Michael with a serious gaze. I could almost imagine an invisible connection sparking between their eyes because they both seemed quite serious for reasons I couldn't fathom.As the evening wore on, Alex's arm was draped tightly around my waist, his grip tightening subtly whenever someone tried to talk to me. Something seemed off about Alex's demeanor. He wasn't usually like this.Later, during a quiet moment amidst the festivities, I excused myself to the outdoor terrace, needing a moment to gather my thoughts. I gazed at the sea under the full moon. The sound of the waves crashing against the shore made my racing thoughts feel calmer.

I didn't anticipate Alex's visit, but he sent someone to bring me breakfast. When I arrived at the cabin, I felt like I'd just come home from a long day at work, still in my robe. I couldn't understand why I suddenly felt so vulnerable after last night's intimacy with Alex. I wasn't sure how to face him.I don't know why I suddenly felt weak last night. It was my first time feeling that, and honestly, I just realized that I let my body be toyed with.I slapped my cheek when I remembered it again. This is really the saying, "Regret comes too late." My mind kept protesting, but my body was doing something else. Can't they sync up sometimes? It's really difficult.I remembered our closeness from last night, and it made me feel uneasy. Part of me wanted to escape and go back home, but I lacked the funds for that option. I had no choice but to wait for him. He mentioned that we wouldn't leave immediately after the wedding and wanted us to enjoy our time here.In the afternoon, I reluctantly

I sat in silence, pushing around the delicious food on the table that Alex had ordered for us. The dishes looked tempting, but I couldn't bring myself to taste any of it, lacking the appetite to eat.I also noticed Alex's occasional glances my way, and I could sense his concern and confusion about my behavior. The food was exquisite, but I couldn't enjoy it, still preoccupied by what had happened earlier.As much as I wanted to walk out earlier, I realized I had no right to do so. I needed to face the situation and have a proper conversation about what had transpired.I thought you were hungry," he shattered the silence with a curious tone."Hmm... I was," I replied briefly, setting aside my nearly finished meal."You don't like the food? We can order another one," he suggested as I took a sip of water."No need, I'm already full. Just feeling a bit tired, Alex," I softly responded, and he nodded, wiping his own mouth with a napkin."In that case, I'll walk you back to your cabin. Read

Chapter sixteen
I became quite curious about Alex's siblings. He hadn't really mentioned how many of them there were, as it never occurred to me to delve into the details of his life. So, I decided to ask Addison, who was now sipping her juice while Chelsie and Claudette were engrossed in their conversation."Addison, is it true that Alex has seven identical twins?" I asked, and she burst out laughing, spewing some of her juice, which startled the others."What the hell, Addison!" Claudette exclaimed, standing up indignantly. Instead of apologizing, Addison continued to laugh loudly, drawing the attention of passersby and even the guys, who were now looking in our direction."What's wrong with her?" Chelsie asked, looking at me with a puzzled expression. I was just asking a question.She slapped my arm playfully while still laughing. She looked like she was about to roll on the sand in amusement. We waited for her to calm down, but when she glanced in my direction again, she burst into laughter once m

"Isabella?" We all turned towards the cabin door, and there stood Alex with the two guys who had been with Chelsie earlier.Seeing Alex made me anxious. I couldn't forget his face from the dream and what he had said.I stepped back when he approached me. Confusion flashed across his face when he saw me retreating, and even the girls seemed puzzled by my reaction."Are you okay, Isabella?" I looked at all of them before finally locking eyes with Alex, who seemed equally bewildered. I calmed myself.It's just a dream, Isabela. Get a hold of yourself!"Can you all leave me alone for a while? I'm not feeling well," I said without looking at Alex, keeping my head down. Every time I saw him, that scene from the dream played fresh in my mind.They informed me they would leave, except for Alex, who remained quiet and kept staring at me. I lay down and turned to the side, not planning to engage with him right

I was shocked, a mix of confusion washing over me. He smiled at me, but due to my surprise, I stumbled and couldn't react immediately. Who wouldn't be surprised? He had used Shena's brother's car, which had become familiar to me."Oh my, daddy~~" We both turned to look at the three girls who had just come out of the gate. It was already late at night, but there was still enough light to see where we were standing. Some of our classmates also glanced at us, but they didn't stop. They were just intrigued.Rizonel bit her lip while her gaze lingered on Alex. Even the other two girls had their mouths hanging open, and if they were animated, their eyes would be filled with hearts.They delicately tuck their hair behind their ears, all at the same time. It's as if they're enamored with his good looks, acting a bit crazy.Even before, everyone was already impressed by him the first time I saw him, especially when Alex laughed. His voice was deep, and when he laughed, he looked even more hands

When we arrived at the bar, Alex didn't let go of my hand, which made me feel uneasy. It became even more awkward as people around us couldn't help but steal glances, as if he didn't want anyone else to touch me but him. We walked until we reached a quieter area, and there, I saw the familiar figure of Shena's brother, along with several other men, who seemed to be a group of seven.I wasn't surprised when I spotted the other two men I had met in Hawaii.As we approached them, I felt the people's attention shift towards us, especially me, making it challenging for me to look directly at them."Wow! Splendid beauty... Alone?" I was taken aback by the swift comment from one of them. He had a mischievous grin on his face, his focus squarely on the two of us. In his presence, I noticed that Alex's grip on me tightened, almost as if he were angry."I'm not a ghost, Xavion. F*** you," he retorted sharply. Laughter erupted from the group at his choice of words, leaving me feeling bewildered.

Chapter twenty
When I arrived outside, Alex was waiting for me. He must have positioned Shena inside the car quite well. He stood by the bar's exit, his phone pressed to his left ear.He sensed my presence, so he turned to me and greeted me. He also put down his phone and pocketed it."Silver took Shena," I stopped and faced him."I thought she was going to dance earlier?""Their parents called, so Silver had no choice. He didn't mention anything else. Maybe there's an emergency at home. I'll call and ask tomorrow.""Aren't you hungry?" He suddenly asked, not waiting for my response. He began walking toward a car parked at the side of the road. It stood out prominently from the others."A little. Wait, Aventador?" I exclaimed as the design of his car suddenly became familiar.After my comment, he turned his gaze towards me. "Yes," he replied, his voice carrying a note of satisfaction. "It's a limited edition, you're right. Do you know a lot about cars?"I shrugged. "Not much, really. I saw that desig
