CHAPTER 76 - GUNNER

Layland and the woman, named Stephanie if I remember it right, are talking to each other with smiles on their faces.Both of them were feeling awkward just a while ago when they first met, and yet they looked so comfortable with each other now. It's like the awkwardness just a couple of minutes ago did not happen at all.And I did not like it.I couldn't hear what they were talking about that made Layland smile so wide. But whatever it was, I already don't like it.I like Layland smiling. I enjoy seeing him happy. I enjoy seeing him being comfortable with people, ones that won't potentially hurt him. But this one's different. Stephanie's different. She's not just any other person. She's someone who has a chance of marrying Layland. She's someone Layland could spend the rest of his life with.I knew she could never attract Layland. But I also knew that there was just a very slim chance, at least for now, of Layland not agreeing to marry her. And it's not because he's fine with marrying

CHAPTER 77 - GUNNER

"How long have you two been dating?" I asked Ana.She put down the glass of wine she was holding. "Two months now.""And I take it that her family doesn't know?""If her family knew about our relationship, I wouldn't be here with you, pretending to watch over their beautiful daughter to ensure everything goes well when the truth is, I'm here to make sure her date doesn't try anything inappropriate," she answered seriously.So she is also a bodyguard assigned the same task as mine.Having that thought, it was only then I decided to take a look at her properly. She's not wearing anything that screams "bodyguard" or "security" to me, but her whole aura exudes it. Then I realized it was probably she who informed Layland's father when we hadn't yet arrived."Well then, now that you've witnessed how they act around each other, what do you think?" I asked again.She glanced at the two, and a smile danced on her face. "I don't think I have to worry anymore. Especially after hearing the conver

CHAPTER 78 - LAYLAND

"We'll see you guys soon,” I said in a loud voice to Stephanie and Ana while waving at them as their car started driving away.Surprisingly, the dinner ended with the four of us smiling, which was not what I imagined when my father commanded me to attend this date. Stephanie is a lovely girl, and so is Ana. They are both fun and very comfortable to be with. I was not lying when I told Stephanie that they looked perfect for each other because they really are. I don't believe in destiny or in soulmates, but meeting Ana and Stephanie somehow made me want to believe in it."Are you ready to leave?"I turned my attention to Gunner behind me. Like me, it was obvious that he also had fun with the two girls that we had just met. There was a wide smile on his face. But it wasn't just that. His whole aura when he and Ana came over to our table exudes happiness, confidence, and sureness. It's like he just found something or someone that he really liked.Could it be Ana? They were having quite a

CHAPTER 79 - GUNNER

Lance and I did not exchange that many words. He did not ask many questions since most of his potential questions have already been answered by the report I have been giving him while the four of us—Layland, Ana, Stephanie, and I—were having dinner. And I am sure that Stephanie's parents have told him the same words I had reported to him.So after he informed me that he and Stephanie's father had already set a date for the next date of their children and told me that I will be accompanying Layland again, doing the same thing I was doing just a while ago, he had already let me go.I went to my room and stayed there for only a couple of minutes because I went out again and headed towards Layland's room. Of course I made sure no one was around to witness me going inside Layland's room.The door was locked, but thankfully, I have one of the spare keys to his room, so it was no problem for me. Once I was done opening the door, I immediately went inside—but not before making sure no one was

CHAPTER 80 - LAYLAND

The sleeping face of Gunner was what greeted me the moment I woke up and opened my eyes.I stared at him for a couple of minutes in wonder, confused why he was in my bed, sleeping with me. It was until the memories of last night slowly filled my still hazy brain that I finally remembered why he was with me.It was because I asked him to dry my hair and to lie down and sleep with me.A smile automatically appeared on my face as I continued to remember the things that happened last night—from how he joined me in the shower and gave me the much-needed hug I've been dying to get from him to how he dried my hair, holding and caressing each of my strands so gently as if he was afraid he would end up hurting me, down to sleeping beside me and hugging me so tightly as if he wanted to keep me safe from any harm. Gunner did not say anything that much. The words he spoke after joining me in the shower did not even total twenty, yet they were enough to comfort me and provide the peace and tranqui

CHAPTER 81 - GUNNER

The moment those words came out of my mouth, regret immediately filled me. But it was already too late for me to take it back. So I held my composure and settled my fucked-up brain, readying myself for the confusion and the questions that Layland is going to hurl at me once he gets over being shocked at my sudden confession.His shocked expression is still as funny as ever. But I couldn't laugh this time. Not when I just dropped the “I am in love with you” like a goddamn bomb, which could either escalate our relationship into something that will make us more than fuck buddies or will ruin the current relationship we have and will leave me with no choice but to leave.After what felt like hours when it's just been minutes, Layland finally got over being shocked and asked me with a still-unsure and confused voice, “Did I hear it right? Did you...did you just say that you...you love me?”I thought I was composed enough to answer him, but apparently, I am not. In fact, words started to ju

CHAPTER 82 - LAYLAND

I am on cloud nine. That's the only word I can use to describe what I have been feeling for days.It's been a week already since Gunner and I started dating. And I am beyond ecstatic. Sure, our relationship is a secret from everyone. Still, it doesn't take away the happiness it brought out in me.Every time our eyes meet, every time he smiles at me, every time he touches me, and every time he speaks to me, all of it gives me so much happiness. But surprisingly, I also like our sneaky glances and touches. Of course I would love more than anything in the world to announce to everyone our relationship because hell, I know damn well how lucky I am to have the sexy and gorgeous Gunner Raptis as my boyfriend. But the thrill and the excitement whenever we sneak glances and touches at each other is just something else. I can't even properly explain it. I feel nervous that my parents might catch us, but I also enjoy the thrill of sneaking glances and touches. The euphoria I am feeling from it

CHAPTER 83 - LAYLAND

When I woke up the next day, I was already alone in my bed, and Gunner couldn't be found anymore. My room was also thoroughly cleaned already, looking fresh as if it did not look like a storm passed by it yesterday.Looks like Gunner did some cleaning. And I am very thankful for that because, with how my head was pounding and my body was aching due to the intense and rough sex we had last night, there was no way I could do some cleaning today.I got up from the bed; a hiss and a groan immediately came out of my mouth, and I slowly made my way to the bathroom to shower and clean myself.Once I reached the bathroom, I looked at myself in the mirror that was right above the lavatory, and I immediately gasped in surprise upon seeing what half of my body looked like.God. Except for my neck and my arms, everything on my upper body was painted with bites and hickeys. My nipples were also puffy, and I am convinced it was because of how Gunner had pulled on them, bit them, and sucked on them.

CHAPTER 84 - GUNNER

The only content of the text message I received from my brother, Shawn, while I was preparing the table for breakfast was just one word: "Done."After reading his text, I immediately checked some news through my phone, searching every single page of different news channels. Since Luke and his family were well-known, there was no way that news channels would pass up on this scandal.It didn't take me long to find what I was searching for. I read the article that detailed Luke's arrest. And attached to it was the mugshot of Luke.A grin started spreading across my face. Luke looked good in his mugshot. Him, holding the placard and looking so miserable, made him look perfect. He definitely should stay locked in prison if he looked this good. And because I am a man who cares about other people, I will make sure that that's what's going to happen to him—imprisoned for the rest of his life, just as Shawn and I made sure that he'll get caught and that he'll end up in prison.Yes. It was me a

CHAPTER 85 - LAYLAND

The day went on so fast. Before I knew it, my parents and Annie, as well as the other workers, were already back; Ana and Stephanie had already gone home, and I was already in my bedroom, trying to get some sleep, but the damn sleep kept getting away from me, and unwarranted thoughts started to invade my brain instead.Honestly, I don't quite remember a lot of things that happened today. I don't remember how my parents reacted after getting home and seeing me and Stephanie doing things on our own while Gunner and Ana stayed outside of our home, just like how we planned it would be so that my parents wouldn't raise any suspicion. I also don't remember even a single thing that came out of my mother and father’s mouth. Even with what Ana and Stephanie had said before leaving, I did not remember any word from it. My mind was so occupied with Luke and his arrest that it's the only thing I could think of, leaving no space for other things.Whether my parents took notice of how I was acting
