My Last Duchess Novels & Stories

“Hindi masarap.” “Hindi pa natin natitikman.” “Alam ko na.” Sumubo si Duke. Ilang segundo siyang tahimik. “Okay.” “Ano?” “Masama.” Napatawa nang malakas si Solene. “Finally, may inaamin ka ring kasalanan.” “Mas mabuti nang masamang pasta kaysa masamang marriage.” Tumigil siya sa pagtawa. “Duke…”

chapter 02 Nasa library kami ng mga kaibigan ko. Dito kami minsan tumatambay pag break time. After my little moment yesterday, bumalik na kami ng room and the day goes on. I glanced at my friends. Beside me was Larriel who's reading a book. She loves reading books especially Histories. Ang sabi niya, Histories are better than Love stories. Nakaka-intriga kasi raw. Across us was Reizel who's doing something on her iPod. Ganyan talaga siya, palagi nalang may ginagawa sa iPod niya pag break time. Kung walang ginagawa sa iPod, nagbabasa rin siya ng books. If Larriel loves Histories, Reizel loves books about the study of human being or Physiology. I think mag do-doctor to. Sa aming tatlo, si Reiz

Kahit ang paligid nila, tila minana ang presensiya nila—malamig ngunit may kontrol. Sa labas pa lang kahit sinong tao ay mapapaatras. Paano pa kaya kung nasa loob ng mansyon? Ang mismong lupain nito ay parang isang pedestal na nagpapaalala sa sinumang maparito ay hindi lahat pantay-pantay. But I’m not just anyone. I’m Katharina Esmeralda Grimaldi—the Duchess of Monaco. A CEO. A woman who has earned her place in the world of power and influence.

Ngumiti naman ako sa kanila bago umupo sa sahig este sa upuan pala hahaha. " Hey Im Chessca Curtiz, nice meeting you." Kalabit ng babae na may mahabang buhok, morena, matangos ang ilong at saka mukhang galing sa pamilyang mayaman dahil sa pamamaraan ng kanyang pananamit at base na rin sa pananalita niya.

DOMINIQUE’S POV (R18) “Last shot!” Tinanggap ko ang alak na binigay ng kaibigan kong si Suzette bago niya ako hilahin papunta sa dancefloor. Ayaw ko pa sana sumayaw dahil bukod sa wala ako sa mood, broken hearted din ako ngayon! I just want to get drunk to forget Carl, my cheater ex-boyfriend. He’s been my boyfriend for two years but inside those years, I can’t count how many times he fooled me.

“Anong news?” “Duchess is engaged.” Dr. Perez and I glanced at each other in confusion, kasi that was unexpected. Duchess Teng is Armando’s researcher cousin. May research institute sa tapat ng ospital, and I know she works there. She’s also the chief of surgery’s daughter, so it’s like one big circle.

"M-mas gusto kita..." Muli kaming napabalik sa Japan ni Duke nang malamang buntis si mommy. Doon kami namalagi ng ilang buwan hanggang sa lumabas ang baby girl na si Duchess. We were all so happy except for mom... mom who tried to kill our father. He, who burned her face alive because she tried to escape again with Duch. She has totally lost her mind. "Prince, Duke, Duchess, mommy cannot take it anymore. He is just so evil, I don't wanna be in the same world as his." That was her last words before she killed herself in front of us.

Ani Vista na yumuko pa. "She's almost killed? By who?" Isang bisita ang malakas ang loob na nag usisa. Isang nakakabinging katahimikan ang pumailanlang sa ballroom. Ang Duke na kanina ay presentableng naka-upo lang, ngayon ay napa-tuwid ang likod at napa-titig sa dalawang bagong dating. Hindi siya maaring magkamali, that Vista woman, is the same lady na kasama ng nakaka-inis na babaeng iyon!

Sambit ni Andrew. Sandaling natahimik ang lahat dahil mababakas mo na ang galit sa mukha ni Andrew. "I would like this to be the end of our conversation.

Our child will be the fortress of my strength and this child will inherit the title of my family. Let this be my last warning and I will set an example. Anyone who dares to taint the name of my Duchess will face my wrath. I serve this an order as the Duke of Normandy as it may serve as an example to everyone. I am holding those people behind the papers who dare to ruin my Duchess name with no basic in contempt. I am s

Nakayukong sabi nito na hindi malaman ang gagawin. Padabog kong binagsak ang palad ko sa mesa niya at saka niluwagan ang necktie kong tila sumasakal sa akin. “I don’t want anybody else aside from her, you hear me? I will triple the price. Or you want it quadruple? Just tell me! Name your damn fucking price... or you want to deal with one million pesos?” mahabang litanya ko sa may-ari. Nakakaubos kasi ng pasensya eh. What Leandro wants, Leandro gets! And I can’t wait for another moment! I want Diane now!
