Steel Wind Strike 5e

Handa ka bang talikuran ang isang pagsasamang nabuo lamang mula sa isang kasinungalingan? "Naiintindihan ko kung bakit kinamumuhian mo ako, Diane. Huli na rin nang malaman ko ang ginawang panloloko sa'yo ni Caleb pero maniwala ka man o hindi, nagawa niya lamang ang lahat ng iyon para sa akin, para sa kapakanan naming dalawa ng anak kong si Theo. Kaya hanggang maari, huwag mo sana siyang sisisihin." "Malinaw sa akin ang lahat nang ikinasal kaming dalawa ni Caleb, Serena. Alam kong may limitasyon ang pagsasama naming dalawa at kung si Theo ang pag-uusapan, malinaw sa akin ang karapatan mo bilang biological mother." Ngumiti ito— isang ngiting hindi niya maintindihan kung ano ang ibig sabihin. "Hindi na ako magpapaligoy-ligoy pa, Diane." Inilatag nito sa mesa ang isang dokumento at sinadyang itulak ng kamay papalapit sa kaniya. "Handa na akong bawiin ang mag-ama ko. Heto ang application for annulment ninyong dalawa ni Caleb..." Pinakinggan niya ang mga sinasabi nito mula umpisa hanggang dulo. "Ibig sabihin, handang ibigay sa'yo ni Caleb ang mansyon at ang rest house sa Tagaytay. Maliban doon, handa siyang bayaran ka ng limampung milyon bilang kabayaran sa limang taong pagsasama ninyong dalawa." Muling nagtama ang mga mata nilang dalawa, doon nasilayan niya kung paano naging nakakalason ang maamong ngiti ni Serena kanina. "If you think everything's okay. Pwede ka nang pumirma." Nanatiling blanko ang ekspresyon niya sa kinatatayuan. Hindi nito alam kung matutuwa ba siya o masisilaw sa mga ari-arian at milyones na alok ng dalawa. Dahil kung tutuusin, isa lang naman ang gusto niya...gusto nitong makalaya mula sa mala-impyernong buhay kasama si Caleb.

"You still want me, don’t you?" bulong ni Levi habang nakasiksik siya sa likuran ni Vionne, ang mainit nilang katawan ay nakababad sa ilalim ng rumaragasang tubig mula sa shower. Ramdam ng babae ang bawat pulgada ng kanyang kahubdan. "Levi… w-we shouldn't—" Pero natigil ang pagtutol niya nang marahas siyang iharap ng binata, isinandal sa malamig na pader ng tiles, at sinalubong ng halik na parang sumisipsip ng kaluluwa. His tongue tasted of hunger, revenge, and something forbidden—yet painfully familiar. "Don't lie to me, Vionne." Mainit ang hininga ni Levi sa kanyang balat. "Your body’s already begging for me. You miss this—me—inside you." Napasinghap si Vionne nang gumapang ang kamay nito pababa, pinunit ang natitirang saplot niya at walang babala siyang inangkin sa gitna ng agos ng tubig. "Ah—Levi!" Napaungol siya, napaarko ang likod sa tindi ng sarap. Napakapit siya sa kanyang balikat. Tuloy-tuloy ang pag-indayog ng binata—parang gusto nitong ipaalala sa kanya kung sino ang tunay na nagmamay-ari sa kaniya. "You’re mine, Vionne," bulong nito sa pagitan ng bawat mariing pag-ulos. "No matter how many times you try to run, your body—your soul—will always crave me." "S-Stop talking… I c-can’t—" Pero hindi na niya nakayanan. Sa halip, bumulwak sa kanyang lalamunan ang mas malakas na ungol habang ang init at sarap ay naghalo sa bawat galaw ni Levi. "You feel that?" Mariing tanong ni Levi habang hinuhugot at muling ibinabaon ang sarili. "That’s how deep I still am inside you. That’s how much I fucking want you." Nanginginig ang tuhod ni Vionne. Nanginginig sa sarap.

My daughter hid inside the cabinet, her trembling hands dialing her father—James, the Alpha of our pack. "Mommy's bleeding a lot. Please, come back and save her," she pleaded. "I'm busy. Don't bother me," James said coldly. "If she's going to die, make sure she does it far away." As he wished, I never bothered him again. Because I really did die, right in front of our wedding photo. When he found out, he went mad, completely mad.
