Mark Reyes Novels & Stories

Markus’s hold on me tightens until it turns almost painful, I wince from the impact. “Josh Mahoney” he extends his hand for Markus to take but Markus just glares at him and his out stretched arm, I give him a little push and reluctantly he shakes Josh’s hand “Markus Espinoza” Mark says in his all-business tone that always scared the shit out of me. Josh’s eyes widen the slightest bit when he recognizes who the man in front of him is and I smirk triumphantly, they stare at each other for so long, from outside looking on the inside it looks like it’s some kind of staring contest which either of them refuses to lose.

AJ smirked at him when Tristan joined them. “Fuck off.” He said before he lit himself a cigar. “You know what you’re doing brother?” “Yeah…” “So, where is she then?” Marla asked after she gave him an open mouth kiss. “In the room.” He looked over at Sally now. “Go and give her a change of clothing. Have a chat to her.” Sally the ever obedient did just that. He smiled to himself, would be interesting to see how this reunion went. He wanted Callie to understand how futile it was to fight him. If only she gave it up. If only she saved herself the trouble and just went with it.

He was preparing her in case I failed. My fingers brushed over the rough stone of her grave, the name Marissa De Luca etched into it as if that was all she’d ever been. But to me, she was so much more. My mother. My ghost. My reason. “You are the one reason that I'm standing. You know, sometimes I find it harder to breathe without knowing that this is the one thing that I'm going to do. That you are the one person that I'm willing to stand for.”

Even breathing too loudly felt like a mistake. “Don’t play games like you used to,” Chase said abruptly. “I only had you brought back because my grandmother misses you. Behave, and don’t overthink this.” I met his eyes in the rearview mirror, forcing a bitter smile. So nothing had changed. He still believed I — and my father — had betrayed the alliance. He still despised me. Yet he waited three years to mention his grandmother — and did so on the eve of his engagement? Of course. It wasn’t care. It was control.

“I caused it….I am so selfish…he just asked me to help him by getting married to James Russo…but I..I ran away…today I returned and got to know the heart attack…. I am so selfish….Leo said I don’t understand the word family…he is right…ugh! I don’t know how to solve this matter…” I let out a sob and Selena was quick to engulf me in a tight hug. “So who is this guy again?” Emerald asked as she opened g****e on her mobile. “James. James Russo….” I spit it out. I am so hating this dude. “Oh my goods! This man is freaking hot and so damn rich!” Emerald gushed out making me roll my eyes۔. “Show! Show!” Selena left me and grabbed the cell phone from Emerald’s hand.

Sabay turo sa napakalaking billboard sa tapat nila. Paglingon niya, halos mabilaukan siya sa nakita. Ngayon lang niya napansin ang billboard na ito. Sa billboard ay makikita ang matipunong katawan nito sa beach. Nakasuot ito ng Earth, isang brand ng sikat na sports watch. The Rex Jay is no other than her husband Brix Jose. In the billboard, it seems like he is looking at her with his seductive smile while showing off his watch, which is the purpose of the billboard. Kahit sa picture lang na parang nakatingin sa kanya, nagblush siya at pinagpawisan, but of course she masked her feelings to the person in front of her.

"But I'm interested in how your seven years had been without me, considering I used to be the only thing in your life that could make you smile." "Highly debatable. Ryan Reynolds makes me smile." "Gay," Marcos said in a sing song voice, causing Paris' face to twist into a grimace before he chuckled, saying, "I'm serious, Don. How was your first kill? Who was he? Why did you kill him?"

Wika ni Maynard "So, hija mabalik tayo sa tanong ko. Kanino ka nagta-trabaho?" Muling tanong ni Raynard sa dalaga. "Kay Mark San Andres."

Dahil sa tanong nang kanyang ama naguluhan bigla si Rui. Kaya tinanong niya ito.

The doctor works quietly, listening to everything but pretending she's not. "And this is the bit you might care about, so I need you to stay lying down so Doctor Reese doesn't impale you with her tools, ok?" She chuckles, placing one hand on the middle of my stomach as she works just in case I do sit up. "So Emery was injured, fatally so."

I vault over the bar. I hit the floor running. I don't know where I'm going, I just know I can't be trapped in a box. The air is thick with smoke and the acrid sting of gunpowder. It burns my throat. I see Markos near the overturned pool table. He’s fighting two Reapers at once. He’s using his empty rifle as a club, swinging it wildly. He looks terrified. He’s a kid. A kid who brought me sandwiches and guarded my door.
