Certified Simp

I'm a nationally certified animal trainer running the Lion King, Caesar's final assessment. I've barely stepped into the enclosure corridor when the steel guillotine door slams down behind me. My wife's laughter crackles over the loudspeaker. "Everyone, we're doing the ultimate challenge today! We're locking the so-called number-one animal trainer in the Lion King's enclosure and taking bets on whether he wets himself in ten minutes!" Caesar crouches low and rumbles a warning. I reach for my tranquilizer gun but stop cold. The liquid isn't the right color. In a phony sing-song voice, the veterinarian, Hugh Archer, says, "Lucian, I forgot to mention, I swapped your tranquilizer darts for pepper spray so you won't hurt Caesar by mistake. "You two are so close. Just win him over with love!" I look at Caesar, his eyes bloodshot from the stimulant, and it clicks. Hugh still resents that I stopped him from touching a tiger with his bare hands a few days ago. I tune out the trash blaring over the loudspeaker, pull a remote from my pocket, and hit the button. It's the master switch for the electric fence gates around every predator enclosure in the zoo. If I don't make it out, no one does.

O ito ang magiging dahilan para mangyari ang kinatatakutan niya?

Akala ni Alexia simple lang ang buhay niya chismosa sa umaga, barista sa hapon, at certified marites sa gabi. Pero isang araw, sa kalagitnaan ng kanyang “tampo moment” sa Jollibee, biglang nagpakita ang isang lalaking naka-three-piece suit, may hawak na kontrata… at may sinasabing siya raw ang legal na tagapag-alaga niya? Siya si Julian Alarcon. Billionaryo. CEO. Cold-hearted. At oo ang Ninong niyang matagal nang nawawala sa eksena. Pero teka, bakit parang hindi pang-Ninong ang mga titig niya? Bakit parang may sariling buhay ang mga kilig sa katawan ni Alexia? At bakit siya sinusundo ng limousine papunta sa isang mansyon kung saan ayaw siya pakawalan ng gwapong “Ninong” na ito? Ang problema? Makulit si Alexia, madaldal, at walang preno sa bunganga. Pero si Julian… sanay sa katahimikan, respeto, at walang ka-cheapan sa paligid.

Rich, arrogant, dangerously charming. The school's golden boy and certified heartbreaker. He had no business looking at me, let alone touching me.

Now, I’m skipping school, arguing with him like we’ve known each other for years, sharing moments I swore I’d never allow, and feeling things I can't ignore. But Aiden?
