All Chapters of His Darkest Pledge (Entice Series 3): Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

CHAPTER 11Masayang-masaya ako na hindi ko maintindihan. Maybe because in my school days, I didn't have freedom like this. New place, new people, new identity. New adventure. Everything felt unfamiliar—I was experiencing things I wasn't used to.The air tasted different here, lighter somehow, walang bigat ng responsibilidad na dala-dala ko noon."Hi! Welcome back to me!"Gulat na gulat ang mga kasambahay nang makita akong pumasok sa main door ng mansion. Ang mga may feather duster, nakalaglag ang panga. Sina Manang Flory at Kyla naman, malalaki ang mata.Kyla ran to me. Nauna na akong pumasok kaysa kay Chief dahil excited akong makita ang mga makakasama ko rito."Michelle! Naku! Bakit ka bumalik? May nakalimutan ka ba?""Nakalimutan? Wala naman!" umiiling pa ako. I pouted then laughed. "Naawa lang ako sa 'yo kasi baka maging robot ka na rin!"Sinabi ko kay Kyla na for good na ako rito. Nagdiwang siya at niyakap

CHAPTER 13Ang bigat ni Sir. Parang pasan-pasan ko ang buong mundo. Dagdag pahirap din 'yong hagdan. He really seemed to have passed out, but he was helping himself just enough to help me.Hindi ko alam kung paano ko nagawa, pero nakayanan ko—naipasok at naihiga ko na siya sa kaniyang kama.As I removed his shoes and socks, I kept thinking about my problem."Alas dos na," problema ko.Maaga pa ang trabaho bukas. At nandito pa rin ako—sa kaniyang silid, sa madilim na gabi, na parang wala akong planong umalis."Sir Eve," tawag ko habang tinatanggal ang butones ng kaniyang polo.Hindi dapat ako pinapangunahan ng tukso, pero nakakapanggana ang katawan niya. I gulped, but my throat still felt dry.I had seen his abdomen that night, when I was sucking his dick, though it was covered by his sando. But now, nakikita ko na ito nang buo—napatunayan ko ngang malaki ang katawan niya, at na

CHAPTER 15 "You know I can pay your school bills and many more," it was Kuya when I was in school and he's in law school. Natawa ako... kasi hindi ko pa lubusang alam kung bakit siya ganiyan. "What?" I almost blew my eyes out. "Igagaya mo ako sa iyo, kuya? Igagaya mo ako sa 'yo na hindi aasa kay Daddy?" Napaka-ironic naman kung sakali? Being offered freedom by someone who grown up without much of it himself. Kuya Limuel, the boy who has to earn every corner of his existence inside this family, was now offering to help me carve mine. Dismay was evident in Kuya's face. "I know Dad more than you do," he said. "At alam kong kapag nagpumilit ka lang sa pangarap mo, isusumbat niya lang 'yon. Gagamitin niya ang pera bilang sandata, hindi bilang tulong." Nag-away kasi kami ni Dad... kaka-graduate ko lang at pinipilit niya na mag-business program ako sa college, for the sake of his business and for me to follow his steps in politics. But I can't really picture myself in that frame of hi

CHAPTER 17I was about to say something back when I noticed — Manang Flory has already eaten the whole slice of cake."Naku, Manang Flory! Ikaw naman!" Napahagikhik ako. "Mukhang gustong-gusto mo 'yong cake, ah? Sa iyo na lang 'yong slice ng cake na para sa akin, Manang — ibibigay ko sa iyo iyon."The older woman straightened with great dignity."Nagsasabi lang ako ng katotohanan, Michelle. Lalo na at mukhang kinukuha mo yata ang loob ng boss natin," sambit niya sabay bagsak ng plato sa lamesa, may natitira pa sana roon na slice na kakainin niya sana pero hindi na niya natuloy."At mukhang hindi siya uuwi ngayong araw — itapon mo na lang at baka bumaho pa 'yan sa ref." dugtong nito bago lumihis sa kusina.Kyla snorted beside me. I didn't dare look at her."Lagot ka, Michelle," bulong niya.. "Mukhang naging bad mood sa 'yo si Madame Flory.""Wala naman akong sinabing masama..." I murmured back, digging my own cak

CHAPTER 19All their eyes went into me. I feel like my head was like a tomato.Nanlaki ang aking mga mata. "Naku! Hindi naman ako ang nag-suggest! Ano kasi!" sabi ko. "Sinabi ko lang na — naku, hindi na bale! Kumain na kayo!"Tumaas ang kilay ni Kyla. Ngumiti si Kuya Ken. Kahit si Ate Hilda ay may kaunting ngisi sa sulok ng kanyang bibig.May mga nagsandok para kay Sir Eve pero pinigilan niya ito at siya na raw ang bahala para sa kaniyang sarili."Kumuha na kayo pakatapos makakuha ni Sir Eve," sabat agad ni Manang Flory, para baguhin siguro ang usapan.Naging tahimik muli ang pagkain namin. Pero hindi ako nagtagal sa katahimikang iyon. I need to prove that it's not uncomforty to have people eat together with someone else.Pero bago pa man ako makaapila, nakita ko na ang paglapit ng ulo sa akin ni Sir Eve. "I think it is way more uncomfortable that we eat in silence," bulong sa akin ni S
