Impetuosity of Lust (El Refugio #2)

Chapter 35

Hello, this will be the last chapter of this story. Thank you so much for coming this far. Nananakit na ang daliri ko kakasulat pero hindi ko mapigilan dahil binabagabag talaga ako ni Paige at Rafael. Sinasabihan nila ako na isulat ko sila nonstop :<

So here we go. Epilogue is up next.

I do not proofread. This chapter is unedited.

Chapter 35 🔞

Miss

He was comatose for 12 months. That's what Seraphim told him about Rafael.

Rafael was barely alive when he was found by the reinforcement that night. He had multiple gunshots across his body, three of which were critical. Dahil sa lala ng pinsalang natamo nito at sa surgery para lang mailigtas ang buhay nito, na comatose siya ng isang taon.

It was critical and life threatening. Nang magising si Rafael ay hindi nito maigalaw ang ilang parte ng kaniyang katawan. He undergoes treatment to get back to what he is today. But he resigned to his job due to the damage he had taken.

Wala nang pag-asa pang makabalik siya sa military.

Paige wondered, how did he survive all those years? What kept him going to continue living?

How much did he suffer from his point of view?

Napalunok si Paige ng tinignan niya ang likuran ni Rafael. He is afraid, anxious, but more likely sad. Hindi maisip ni Paige kung gaano kahirap ang pinagdaanan nito.

Kaya nalulungkot at nagui-guilty siya dahil pinagdaanan iyon ni Rafael. Paige didn't ask for it. He was willing to die for Paige. Wala silang relasyon upang tulungan siya nito ngunit ginawa parin ito ni Rafael.

Rafael was just helping him. Dahil sa tagal ng panahong hindi niya alam ang katotohanan, sinisisi niya si Rafael sa nangyari noon. Dahil sa anim na taon, ang alam niya lang ay kung hindi siya nito kinuha sa Italy, hindi niya daranasin ang lahat ng ito.

But Rafael is just one the victims of the cruelty of their family's enemy. Hindi kalaban si Rafael sa una palang. He was just entangled in the mess of his family.

Pumasok si Rafael sa isang kwarto sa mansion. This wasn't his room because they are still on the first floor of the mansion. Paige guessed it as one of the guestrooms. Walang tao sa loob ng pumasok silang dalawa doon.

Malakas na sinara ni Rafael ang pinto sa likuran ni Paige. Rafael is looking so mad right now. He is furious about something. Umiigting ang panga nito habang matalim na nakatingin kay Paige.

Napalunok si Paige dahil sa intensidad ng pagtingin sa kaniya Rafael. Rafael is tall so he is towering through Paige right now.

"What are you doing..." Saad ni Paige ngunit hindi na siya nakapagsalita ng marahas na hinalikan siya ni Rafael.

Napa-awang ang labi ni Paige dahil sa gulat ng ginawa ni Rafael sa kaniya. Dahil doon ay mas lalo lang hinalikan ni Rafael si Paige.

It was a quick yet deep kiss.

Nahabol ni Paige ang kaniyang hininga ng tumigil si Rafael sa paghalik sa kaniya.
