Chapter 16 part 1 Desire Jared carefully landed me on the bed while we were kissing. The sound of our intertwining lips filled the silence of the room. I was still a little wet because we just came from the pool. I'm already on my robe while he is still topless. He parted my legs and put himself in between. He slowly ran over me. The heat of his body made my desire reach its highest level. His left hand is on my left thigh, making circle patterns. When his right hand went to my right breast, I gasped. To my great surprise I bit his lower lip. "S-sorry," I hardly said. He didn't respond like he wasn't hurt. He just continued kissing me. He inserted his hand inside my robe and caressed my breast. I accidentally bit his lower lip again because of shock. He alternately massaged my breasts with his one skillful hand. His other hand is still on my left thigh. I couldn't kiss him back well because of what his playful hands are doing to my breasts and thigh. The way he cups and massages my breasts is sending shivers down my spine. No one ever touched them before. The thing in between my thighs became sensitive. My folds were throbbing hard. His lips left mine, leaving it so sore and dry. He then planted soft kisses on my cheek, on the back of my ear and on my jaw. When his lips traveled to my neck, a moan escaped from my mouth. The softness of his lips tickled my sensitive skin. I held on to his nape. I cannot take this anymore. I let out a long and erotic moan when I felt him suck my neck. He then pulled away. I was suddenly embarrassed by my reaction. "Damn," He murmured when he saw my neck. I also got out of bed and presented the body in the large mirror in front of the bed. My eyes circled. There is a red part of my neck. He washed both palms on his face. "Tito will kill me if he sees that," He said in the most problematic tone. I stared at him while trying to think of a way. "Maybe the concealer will cover it," I shyly said. He turned to me. He came over and pulled me into a hug. "I'm sorry. I'm just so happy, I wasn't able to control myself." The next morning it was about noon when I woke up. I caught up with Jared arranging the cutlery on the mini table on the sofa. "Morning," He greeted. I smiled. Memories from last night flashed on my mind. I suddenly blushed. Did we just made out last night? After we ate I took a shower first. Jared decided to swim in the sea again. I took my time in the shower thinking of things about us. Last night, he said that he loves me. What about me? I'm sure I'm also feeling something for him but does it equal to his feelings? He's not in a hurry, is he? I could see in the mirror the evidence of what happened last night. I caressed my hickey. Damn. I think I'll have a hard time covering this. After bathing I followed Jared to the sea. Surprising because he was the only one bathing there. Literally. And since there was no one else besides us I had more courage to take off a robe and show off my bikini. I went to the shore. The sound of the sea waves serenaded my ears as I approached the sea. When I felt the seawater on my foot, I immediately became cold but I did not let go. I slowly buried my body in the water. The sea is surprisingly calm. It should have been stormy because of the strong wind and the cold climate but miraculously the sea was so calm. My hair exploded because of the wind. I didn't have a hair tie so I immersed myself in water for a while to get my hair wet and not windy. When Jared noticed me, he swam towards my direction. He held on to my waist again when he got up from the water. He is dazzling. Drops of water from her hair are dripping from her chest down to her body and I feel like I am in front of an FHM model. Gosh. Chapter 16 part 2 I faked a cough to suppress green thinking. I looked around. "Why no one else?" I asked to distract myself. Are all their guests awake and we are literally the only ones at sea? His brows shot up. "You do not want?" Napanguso ako. "Of course not. It's just amazing." "I instructed the crews not to let anyone go here for three hours." He smirked. My eyes rolled. "Seriously?" I partially laughed. He must be crazy. How is their livelihood? Its trip is also really different, e. He nodded. "So that you can wear your bikini again." He said as his eyes turned obscene. My jaw dropped and my cheeks felt hot. I kicked him. "Perv! Who told you I can only wear a bikini when we're just the two of us?" I trailed off even though that was actually my mind set last night. He laughed so hard. "Me?" He laughed again. I slap his arms. He caught my wrists and pulled me closer to him. He turned me away from him then hugged me tightly. "Hey, I'm not yet done with my rants!" I said as I tried to escape from his embrace. He chuckled sexily at my ear. "Give it up, baby. My place, my rules. I will make sure that I will only be the man to see the hottest image of you." He drawled. The feathers stood up against me but also recovered quickly. "Possessive." I accused. He chuckled again. "Yes I am." He ran his lips on my neck. I sighed as I closed my eyes tightly. His frisky hand traveled to my chest while the other rests firmly on my stomach. His lips then moved to my jaw, then to the back of my ear, feeling my skin in a slow manner. I was held in his arm for support. He cupped my breast and a soft moan escaped from my lips. "Jared …" I mumbled. Gradually I was really losing my temper because of what he was doing to my system. "Hmm?" "What's with November 15?" I finally managed to ask. This question bugged me for weeks before. Now I just remember again. That was the day we fought. That was the day he asked to be with me but I chose to go with Aldrin. That was the day he frustrated me and I saw what he had that Aldrin didn't have. He stopped what he was doing. I removed his hand wrapped around my stomach and faced him when after a while he was still speechless. "Hey," I said as I caressed his cheek. He sighed and held my hand. He brought me closer to him again. "November 15 is my birthday," My eyes widened. It's his … what? "Y-your birthday?" He nodded. Guilt crept within my system. I remember how he spoke to me that day. "Do I need to beg, Thal? Can you say no to him just this time? I'm ahead of the day, eh. Can you choose me even just for this day, baby?" "I don't have the right. I'm not selfish, Thal. I said, even just now. I didn't say you can't go out with him 'coz I know the rules and I know you're more than willing to go out with him more than me. I'll let you date with him even if it fucking hurts me, just don't do it now. I'll just ask you for a little time, Thal. But maybe you're right. This is so childish of me. " "Hey," His voice is laced with worry and fear. He cupped my chin so that our eyes would level. She was embarrassed to look him in the eye. Damn you, Thalia. You are one heartless brat. Stupid! "I-I didn't know," My voice broke. "It's okay. It's all in the past." He said with an assuring tone but I am not convinced, it cannot wash away the guilt that I'm feeling. Tears welled up in my eyes. I bit my lower lip. The image of his begging face flashed on my mind. I feel guilty. "Damn." He said when he noticed the tears forming in my eyes. He wiped my tears that are threatening to fall. "I really should have not told you that anymore-" Before he could finish his sentence, I hugged him tightly. I wrapped my arms on his waist firmly "I'm sorry. I'm sorry, baby. You should have told me. Gosh." I said. He stiffened. I realized later on what made him act like that but I just ignored it. It's true, though. He removed my arms on his waist when he regained his consciousness. I was shocked but before I could think it was a bad sign he had already crushed me with passionate kisses. "It's the second time you called me 'baby' and I hope you already mean it." He kissed me abruptly. "Damn girl, you always make my mind go crazy." We stayed in the beach for hours until we already felt satisfied. We ate our lunch first at the Thai resto before going back to our room. Chapter 16 part 3 "Jared, Aunt Jene is calling!" I shouted. Jared was taking a shower in the bathroom while I was currently drying my hair. "Answer it," "I don't want that!" Later what else will Tita think … The sound of the water stopped. Maybe he turned off the shower so we could hear each other better. "If I'm the one to answer that, you have to come in here to the bathroom to hand over my phone." He teased. My eyes widened. "Tse! Who said I'll hand that to you ?! You'll take it here!" He laughed. "Really? You want me to get out of here? Seems like you really want to see me naked." My cheeks got hot. It's really obscene to talk anytime. "Don't take a towel-" I groaned out of frustration. Push me walking closer to the side table. I picked up his phone. "I hate you!" He burst out laughing. "Say hello to mommy, huh?" "Fuck you, Arevalo!" "Yes, sure. You can fuck me anytime," I winced and frowned. He really is the master of lust. I answered the call. It's up to Tita what to think. "Hi aunt!" I greeted. "Jared- oh! Thalia?" I bit my nails. I could hear Jared laughing in the bathroom. "Uhm, Jared went somewhere for a while, Tita. He left his phone, eh." "Oh! Is that so? It's a good thing he left because you answered. How's your vacation, hija? Did La Sirene meet your standards?" I smiled. Too much, aunt. "It's great, Tita! La Sirene is amazing," She chuckled. "That's good to hear. By the way, I called to tell Jared sana na you go visit my relatives' house today. They found out Jared's in Zambales. They wanna see him." "Oh. Sure, Tita. I'll tell Jared to come over." "What's he just? You too!" "Huh? It's embarrassing-" "No, no, no. Don't say that. I don't want to hear you again saying that you're embarrassed. You go with him. Tell Jared what I told you, okay? I gotta go." "Aunt-" I close my eyes emphatically. The bathroom door opened just in time. It spat out Jared wiping his hair with a towel. I turned around. "Jared! Get dressed!" The hell. I am guilty because of her body. I was surprised when he was startled in front of me again. "Really?" He said as he tries to expose his body on me. "Tse! Stay away from me!" I said as I slapped him. He laughs away from me. I stared at him. "What did your father -in -law say?" He asked. "Huh?" "Si mommy," My eyes widened and my cheeks flushed. "He said, go to your relatives now. They want to see you." I rolled my eyes. He smirked. "Okay. Tara? Let me introduce you," Their relatives' house were 30 minutes away from La Sirene. One of the reasons why there's La Sirene-Zambales is that Tita Jene was born and raised in Zambales before her family decided to live in Manila when she was 13. In a vast compound live the whole clan of the Pedraza. Like the Arevalos, they were also filthy rich and powerful in Zambales. We had our dinner there. I was introduced to the whole clan. They were nice to me. Really nice. The cold breeze made me shiver. I was in the garden of his grandparents 'house - the dinner scene and center of the compound. I hugged myself. I said goodbye to Jared that I would just air out here. Actually, I'm out of place inside because I'm the only one who isn't Pedraza there. I'd better go out so they can catch up well. Earlier as I was inside I noticed that Jared was the only one taking care of me. Maybe he doesn't want me to be out of place. The sound of the chains attached to the swing filled the silence of the night as I sway it back and forth in a slow manner. The dark sky is again stuffed with bright stars. Lately, I've become more appreciative on nature. Lately, I've been showing so much adoration on heavenly bodies - the moon, especially the stars. All because of Jared. I was startled when I felt a piece of cloth fenced my shoulders. I looked behind me. "Stargazing again?" Jared and his jacket. I smiled and turned to the night sky again. "Sort of," He leaned over me. I moved a little. The cradle woke up when he sat down. I stiffened when he wrapped his arms on my thin waist - his favorite move especially when we're stargazing. When will I get used to his movements? He's more clingy now but it gives me mini heart attacks whenever he's into it. "What are your plans for this year?" He asked. He placed his head on my shoulder and planted soft kisses on my shoulder blades. "I don't know. Study harder?" I answered, a bit distracted on his kisses. He chuckled. I kicked his arm. He faked a groan. "My answer is fine! Why? Are you? Do you have a clear plan this year?" I trailed off. He chuckled sexily again. His hand traveled to my boob. I caught that. He can't score. He tripped me. "I'll take my internship starting on the first week of January's class," I looked at him. "Internship?" "Uh-hmm." Of course. He is graduating. "Why just now? It's the end of the school year, ah?" "I'm last batch," I nodded. "Why? You'll miss me?" He said loftily. I rolled my eyes. "Where," It seems like that … His hug tightened. "Don't worry, you'll still see me. I'll still be the one to take you to school and take you home. It'll be my role as long as you want." "Really?" He held my chin and made me look directly at his expressive eyes. "Of course, baby." He said before he sealed my lips with his.
