Love's Gentle Whisper [Vesalden Series#3]

Chapter 25

Wants

His eyes locked on mine.

Unti-unti niya akong hinapit pa, papalapit sa kaniya. I made his arms my pillow, while his other one were busy touching my bruise above my chest. Yes, my nightdress were pulled down a little, but not enough to have a full view of my chest.

"Tell me, Jia..." he huskily whispered.

Katatapos na naming kumain at nandito kami sa kwarto niya, nakahiga na't handa nang matulog. Umigting ang kaniyang panga bago niya hinaplos ang mukha ko.

"Tell you what?"

"Tell me who did these..." he said, pertaining to my bruises. I zipped my mouth. I don't want to say it.

Napaiwas ako ng tingin sa kaniya, ngunit hinuli niya ang tingin ko. He lift my chin up using his fingers. "Look at me baby...tell me who did these,"

I meet his dark piercing eyes. It's hypnotizing. He caress my cheeks. "Tell me..." he urge. But I still keep silent and rested my face on his neck.

"Does your dad knows about this?" he said and heavily sighed. Niyakap na lamang niya ako. "He's not my real dad..."

He kissed my temples.

"Then, does your step-dad knows about this?" he asked. Mas lalo akong hindi nakasagot. "Or, he's the one who's behind this all?"

I gripped his shirt because of tension. I hugged him tighter. Not wanting to talk everything about this.

"Will you believe if I say... I'll protect you?" he suddenly asked. Inangat ko ang tingin ko sa kaniya. Sinalubong naman ako ng maitim na mga mata niya.

"Would you trust me?" he asked. I bit my lower lip.

I trust him. So fucking much. Pero hindi ko alam kung bakit may nag-uudyok sa akin na sa ngayon, kailangan kong ipagpatuloy ang naunang plano. And it is to stop the marriage without harming everyone. Kailangang maitakas ko sila Mommy sa isla, para walang panghahawakan si Hudson.

"I'd always believe you, and trust you." sinsero kong sabi. But I know I wasn't that calm! Nagtitiwala ako sa kaniya, kay Hudson hindi! I fear he'll put Denber to danger too. I don't want it.

His lips rose up and kissed me for a bit. "We'll take a vacation tomorrow afternoon." bigla niyang sabi kaya lumiwanag ang mukha ko.

"Really?"

Tumango siya. "I'll bring you on our mansion in Laguna." he said and caress my hands.

A cool off isn't that bad right? Siguro kailangan ko muna ng oras kay Denber bago sa problema ko. I don't know what will happen though.

"But first, let's go to our company in the morning. We'll take private plane instead." he said. Mas lalo akong na-excite dahil sa sinabi niya. I also want to see their Airline company.

Ganoon nga ang nangyari. Kinabukasan ay naghanda kami para makapunta muna sa kompanya nila. Ngunit ang mga ibang gamit na dadalhin namin sa Laguna ay nakahanda na.

"Baby?"

Tumingin ako kay Denber na nakasilip sa kwarto ko, katatapos ko kasing isara ang bag na dadalhin mamaya sa Laguna. He's good looking on his corporate attire! He's mature, using that attire.

"Are you done?" he asked. Tumango ako sa kaniya at pinapasok siya. Kinuha niya 'yong bag ko sabay hawak sa kamay ko at iginaya na papunta sa baba. I am wearing my plain white strap tops, checkered pencil skirt, and I put light brown cardigan with my white four-inches heels.
