NOBLE SERIES#2: ALLURING THE DUKE

CHAPTER 21

Break hearts: one revelation, Pick it up.

The night was good, Kung sino sino rin ang mga nakausap namin, Pinakilala ako ni Deimos sa mga ka partners n'ya, Hangang sa napagod ako at hinila s'ya pabalik sa table namin

"Being nice to everyone is so tiring." I mumbled.

Naka upo kaming pareho ni Aureolous, kumuha ako ng dalawang tequila sa dumaan na waiter, Ngumiti ako sa kanya saka bumaling kay Aureolous, Inaabot ko 'yun sa kanya.

"Cheers?" Saad ko sa kanya.

We lifted our glasses and clinked it, Ngumiti ako habang sumisimsim sa tequila ko. Holding the stem I places it down on the table in front of me.

Maraming tao sa loob, Halos nag papagandahan ang lahat sa mga damit nila, Pabongahan ng mga singsing at mga new brands na bags nila, They look so cheap. I almost thought, Because for me an expensive thing should be expensive you don't need to tell and announce it to all people, Let your thing announced that you're an expensive type of people.

May nahagip akong isang bulto ng lalaki, May hawak itong champagne sa kanang kamay habang papalapit ito sa gawi namin. Inaantay kong makalapit talaga s'ya sa amin.

"Everlee." He called when he stopped in front of me.

"Christian. What do you need?" I replied.

Christian laughed slightly with a mocking tone.

"Can we talk?" He asked.

Napakagat labi ako at natahimik, I glance at the man beside me, Sa'kin s'ya nakatingin.

"Babalik ako, Give us ten minutes?" I asked softly at him.

Aureolous nodded. "Okay, Ten minutes." He replied inalis nito ang kamay n'ya na nakapatong sa may hita ko.

Tumayo ako at sumunod kay Christian palabas sa may medyo madilim na bahagi ng lugar. Nang huminto kami ay saka ako tumingin sa kanya.

"What are you doing here?" Matigas ang boses kong tanong.

"I should ask you the same question, What are you doing here with the Duke of Zalana? Are you seducing him?" Mapanlait nitong tanong.

Nag init bigla ang ulo ko sa narinig ko.

"What the fuck did you say?" Pag uulit ko.

"Everlee, You're acting like a whore." Mabilis ko s'yang sinampal dahil sa sinabi n'ya.

"You don't get to call me like that, you're nothing but my ex, Remember your place."

Christian face hardened.

He closed our distance. "Why? Did he fucked you already? Is he really good in bed for you to act like that? Huh?" Hinawakan n'ya ang panga ko.

Imbes na dumaing sa sakit ay ngumisi ako sa kanya.

"Oh, Trust me ,honey, when I say he's really good in bed, Good in finger fucking me every time, he is." I licked my lower lip as those words left in my mouth.

"That good, Huh?" Ngayon ay ang kamay n'ya ay nasa leeg ko na, Napapikit ako sa ginawa n'ya.

"And you know what things he can do that you cannot?" I asked in low voice. Making him stop and look at me.

"What? Fucking tell me!" He asked, Almost screaming at me.

"Aureolous never hurt me, He never laid his hand on me, He always make sure I'm safe, He always secured my safety, showered with me with his wealth, Spoiled me in everything he can and I know if he can give me the fucking universe he would, Aureolous is a gentleman." Dinuraan ko s'ya kaya naialis n'ya sa'kin ang pagkakasakal .
