Undercover Bride (ON HOLD)

CHAPTER TWELVE

Even though that the party's still not over, Hunter drag me out of the place and took me inside his car. Sa bilis ng pagpapatakbo nito ay nakikita ko kung ano ang naging epekto ng ginawa ko sa kaniya. That's it, Hunter. Maapektuhan ka. I want you to go crazy about wanting me, loving and lusting in every piece of me. I want me to be your daydream and nightmare at the same time. I want him to fall in love with me in ways that he has never done before. In that way, hindi ako mahihirapang saktan ito when the right time comes.

Mabilis na ipinarke nito sa isang five star condominium ang sasakyan niya. Before I could even utter a word, he kissed me on my lips as his other hand started roaming my body—from my neck down to my chest. Kahit pa may suot pa ako ay ramdam na ramdam ko ang init ng palad nito. He kneaded my breast a little and I groaned a bit. His touches were sending bolts of electricity down my spine. I've never done this before so every touch that he's giving me makes me tingly.

Inangkla ko sa leeg nito ang mga braso ko para mas palalimin pa ang paghalik niya, and when my tongue seeks for an entrance, another cussed came out of his mouth before he obliged. I couldn't help but flashed a smile in between our kisses dahil sa nagiging reaksyon nito. Sa tuwing maaapektuhan siya, naiisip ko na hindi naman talaga magagaling ang naikakama ni Hunter. As for me, I am no expert when it comes to s*x, but I know things that I think I need to know, I know things about man, all I need is to execute them properly.

"Let's go," he said upon breaking the kiss. Lumabas ito ng sasakyan niya at saka ako pinagbuksan ng pinto. He kneaded my butt a little before giving me his infamous seductive smile bago ako inakay papasok ng condo.

Hindi naman bago sa akin na malaman na mayroon itong parte sa condo na 'to. Hudson helped me in doing my research about Hunter, his father, their businesses and everything related in their life. I've been studying them for years kaya alam ko kung hanggang saan ang kakayahan ng mga 'to. But tonight, I'm in charge. Sisiguraduhin ko na hindi na makakawala si Hunter sa akin pagkatapos ng gabing ito.

Kahit pa binabati kami ng mga tao sa lounge, tila walang pakialam si Hunter at nagmamadali lang ito na makapunta kami sa elevator. I took a gander at his pants at halatang-halata ang pag-umbok ng kung anong nagagalit na na parte ng katawan niya.

Nang makasakay kami sa elevator ay sindya kong ipwesto sa likod ko si Hunter at ipatama ang likurang bahagi ng katawan ko sa kung anong matigas na bagay sa pagitan ng hita niya.

Hudson entered the elevator and I followed. He clicked on the button that will take us to the secret ground floor of this building. This is a special elevator that only El Carter’s member can enter. After arriving at the ground floor, we walked through a tunnel that will lead us to the El Carter’s headquarters. Sa lugar na ‘to binibigay ang magiging utos sa amin na nanggagaling pa sa Hub and this is the area for briefing. After here, we have to go to El Carter’s Armory to pick up our weapons or go straight to our houses since we were entitled to our very own weapon collection.

“Hey, Damira,” bungad ni Hudson kay Damira na prenteng nakaupo at mukhang may pinagkakaabalahan sa laptop nito. When she saw us, she immediately closed it to welcome us. She looked very presentable in her formal wear. Hindi rin halata ang edad nito dahil na rin sa galing niyang magdala ng damit at mag-ayos ng sarili. She’s El Carter’s secretary.

“How’s your last mission?” she asked.

“It was easy,” Hudson answered. Hindi ko naman naiwasang maparolyo ng mata dahil sa tono ng pananalita niya. Clearly, he’s boasting but if I am not mistaken, mas marami akong napatumba sa mga kalaban kesa sa kaniya. He’s a sniper, he handles everyone na nasa labas ng perimeter while I was on combat and I, well, handles everyone. Mapalabas o mapaloob, kailangan kong mabantayan dahil ako lang ang nasa ground. Kung tutuusin, two-manned missions are quite dangerous but we were trained for it and we don’t want to disappoint El Carter.

“How about you, Brielle?” she asked me. Halos kilabutan naman ako nang marinig ko ang second name ko mula sa kaniya. We’ve been working together for years pero hindi ko kayang masanay sa kung paano niya ako tawagin.

“Well, I was too busy cleaning Hudson’s mess,” I answered.

“Woah.” I looked at Hudson at tila hindi ito makapaniwala sa sinabi ko. “It was just a one man, Skylar. Don’t be too harsh on me.”

“One man who might’ve killed me, Hudson.”

“But you’re here, still alive and kicking, lady. Give me some credit.”

“I am still alive, thanks to myself.” I flipped my hair as I watched how his jaw dropped. Napailing-iling pa ito sa inasta ko. Wala ng bago sa kung paano naming pakitunguhan ang isa’t isa. For pete’s sake, I’ve known him since I became a part of El Carter’s training. Alam na alam ko na ang galaw ng bituka niya.

“Have some decency and stop arguing inside my office,” Damira said. Wala naman akong ibang nagawa kundi ang manahimik. She went back to her table at saka may kung anong kinuha mula sa drawer na naroon. “Here’s your passport and other documents to support your identities for your next mission,” she said then handed us a passport, a plane ticket and papers secured in a white folder. Agad kong binuklat ‘yon isa-isa. It was a profile of people that aren’t familiar to me but one thing’s for sure, someone wanted them gone, asap.

“Since you’re going to India, we handled everything including the need for visa on arrival to that country. You both know the power of El Carter, you can easily bypass the customs,” she added. Napangisi pa ako nang makitang panibagong identity na naman ang nakalagay sa passport ko. May iilang papeles din na nagpapatunay na ako si Nathalie Scott. I prefer Skylar Brielle dahil ang bantot ng Nathalie.

“Why do they want these people gone?” Hudson asked.

“Business competition,” Damira answered. Binuksan pang muli nito ang laptop niya at may kung anong tinipa roon at saka iniharap sa amin ‘yon. It was a footage. Mula roon ay malinaw ko ring nakikita ang tatlo na nakasama sa mga kailangan naming trabauhin. “Last month, an ambush happened in India. The culprits took the modern weapons that were set to be delivered to one of the most powerful businessmen in the industry. I can’t name him due to protocols.”

“Go on,” Hudson said.

“It was a great set back to his business and he wanted a revenge. Upon conducting their own investigation, they found out that another powerful organization was behind the ambush. He does have the power but doesn’t have the man who fits in the job so he hired us to eliminate his enemies,” she explained.

“He’s rich and I am sure he can hire not just one organization to finish the job so why us? Why El Carter?” Hudson asked.

“Look closely to profile of the second man,” Damira ordered. I browsed through the files related to the second man she’s talking about.

“Oh, damn,” Hudson muttered. “He’s still alive?”

“Lionel was one of us but he betrayed El Carter. The businessman I am talking about knew about that. I am not surprised because given his reputation, he must’ve had a lot of connections. He said that a revenge is sweeter if it will be done in two reasons at one specific target.”

“We’ll make Lionel pay for what he did to us and at the same time, make him pay for what his organization did to our client,” I said.

“Everything’s settled, then,” said Hudson. “Let’s take him down.”

“Not so fast, Hudson,” Damira said. “He was a member of us so he knew how we work, how we move, how we go through things. You might have a hard time dealing with Lionel. He’s smart and a pain in the ass.”

I stood up, full of confidence. “You know us as well, Damira. We’re smarter than that idiot.”
