Lahat ng Kabanata ng His Sinful Pleasure : Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

Author's point of view The other men spun, ready to fight. Their attacker's blade flashed once, slicing clean through a raised arm. Blood sprayed the wall. The man howled, clutching the stump where his hand had been. The last one swung a fist, trying to punch their attacker. Their unknown attacker just smirked. "Pathetic," he spat. He straightened up and threw a kick into the man's groin area, when it connected, the man toppled over, growling in pain. Their attacker wasn't done yet. He grabbed the arm that tried to throw him a sloppy punch and used his momentum to flip the man onto his back. The man landed with a heavy thud on the ground. Their attacker, still holding his wrist, twisted the wretched thing.The crack of the breaking bone echoed. The man pulled his knees to his stomach, screaming. The attacker's eyes were dangerously black. He didn't stop. He slammed one man's head open into the wall until it cracked open like a melon. The other, he gutted with one smooth thrust, ho

Author's point of view Kyle chuckled, "You were the one who begged me to slow down and I'm only obeying your commands, princess." "That was then," she shot back. "Now you're crawling and stop calling me princess. My name is Shea and I know with this pace, I could have arrived at the hospital since if I had just walked there myself. Injured gash or not." He laughed again. "Okay, Princess Shea. "Shea snorted, folding her arms around her chest. He called her princess again. "If your wish is for me to let you get off here so you can walk yourself to the hospital , I will let you. " His magnetic voice teased her. Shea looked around. They were on the highway and it was so dark here with no one but only street lamps that casted weird monster shapes on the tarred road. It made her shiver. "No," Shea said quickly, taking her words back. She tried to suppress her agitation because despite what she said she didn't want to be left here alone, didn't want to find out the dangers that might

Zerina’s point of view His expression as always was unreadable. I couldn't stop speaking. The tremor in my voice betrayed me, but I didn't care. Without waiting for him to reply, I continued, "What happened tonight... I wouldn't lie.. it shattered me. It rocked my whole world and I never want to feel that way again. But you... " My throat closed for a second, "you came. And somehow, that's enough for me to keep trying. To keep.. chasing whatever fragile hope I have left."Lysander coming to save me was all the hope I needed to keep trying. That single act was enough for me to try to catch my kite again. So yes, I have decided to try again, one last time. If I couldn't get the universe to answer my last wish tonight, then I would stop hoping for happiness. I would stop, once and for all. I would finally accept that it is my fate to never be happy or loved, at least not in this life. I drew in a shaky breath, then forced myself to say it. My voice is barely louder than a breath. "I

Zerina's point of view "Oh." My voice came out small, almost too quiet to be heard. The relief came quietly— not with a sigh, not with a smile, but with the way my shoulders loosened, the way my trembling hands found calm on my lap. I was so glad she wasn't living with him. No matter how much I tried to hide it, I felt somewhat afraid of her. The reception she had given me the first time we met wasn't exactly warm. I shivered as I remembered the way she pushed me into the dark, cold dungeon. I stared out the window, blinking fast as if the dim streetlights passing could hide the relief in my eyes. I didn't want to imagine living with the ‘Queen’ Joanna. What if she comes visiting once in a while? Will she understand now that Lysander is my husband and try not to get in my way of getting a little bit of happiness? Why can't the universe grant my wish without giving me one form of problem?I opened my purse to distract myself from the fear that was clawing itself to my heart. Maybe I

Zerina's point of view She nudged at me playfully with her hands, trying to figure out if this was a joke. "Shea.. I'm really sorry that I didn't tell you this earlier. I've hidden it from you for so many years now. I.. I tried many times to tell you but I couldn't... I just couldn't." My voice broke. "But when I met Lysander, it was as if I became daring and braver ever since that night we met. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you'd worry over me. I didn't want you treating me differently because of my condition and.. ""Zerina, please.. I don't understand. What are you saying? What condition?""Shea.. I'm sick. Florence told me when I was little that I had little time left. She said my body was weak, and that if I didn't take those green pills everyday, it would get worse. That's why I always take those green pills, Shea. They are not just supplements that are important whenever I start having a panic attack. They keep me alive. ""No, no.. " Shea shook her head, stretchin
