OLIVIA PIPER ROBLES
Tama ako, his house is much better. He is one of the main pillars in the mafia so tama lang na may maganda siyang bahay. It’s one storey with three bedrooms, a spacious living room and kitchen.
Humito kami sa tapat ng pinto ng isang kwarto.
“There are clothes in the closet. Don’t assume that it will be branded. Ipapa-transfer ko bukas ang iba pang gamit bukas.”
Binuksan niya ang ilaw at pumasok ako sa loob upang pagmasdan iyon.
Hm, this is nice.
“Okay, this is much better.”
Hindi ko na nilingon si Ryker at nagsimulang hubarin ang mga basang damit. I tossed it on a chair and I turned to walk to the closet naked. I bend and reach for the white shirt.
I stared in disgust when I held the fabric, “Ugh, this is the cheapest fabric I’ve ever laid my hands on. What is this? Cheese cloth?”
“You complain a lot.”
I gasped and turned around. Nakahilig si Ryker sa hamba ng pintuan, his arms are crossed over his chest. Swallowing, I locked my gaze with his, floored by the stark desire I saw in his stormy dark eyes.
“Oh my god, hindi ka pa umaalis?!”
Hindi ito umimik at tila hinahamon ako ng mga mata nito. Habang sinusuot ang damit ay hindi ko inaalis ang tingin sa kanya. His eyes continued to watch me.
"Well, good night," malamig kong saad pagkatapos magbihis.
I had to get away from him.
I had to close him up, get him out of sight.
"Good night, Olivia. It’s been a pleasure," he said, his voice huskier, deeper.
His voice sent shivers down my spine and made me a little wet. I let out a sigh when he closed the door.
This was not good. Not good at all.
His dark voice was still in my brain as I walked to the bed that now belonged to me. I wearily sank down on the bed. Nakatingin lang ako sa ceiling at kahit na ano pa ang gawin ko ay hindi pa rin ako datnan ng antok. Nakapikit lang ako ngunit hindi ako tulog.
Dumilat ako at huminga ng malalim. Umupo ako sa gilid ng kama bago tumayo at lumakad palabas ng silid. Sinikap ko na hindi gumawa ng kahit na ano pang ingay upang hindi magkaroon ng ideya si Ryker na nasa labas ako.
Pumasok ako sa kusina at binuksan ang fridge. I bent over to see the products inside the fridge. Nilabas ko ang pistachio spread dahil may nakita ako na bread sa ibabaw ng kitchen island.
“This isn’t expired, right?”
“Maybe,” Sa gulat ay nabitiwan ko ang hawak na bote at bumagsak iyon sa sahig.
“s**t! You scared the hell out of me!”
Napasinghap ako dahil sa mabilis at hindi inaasahan na naging kilos ni Ryker. Binuhat niya ako at ibinaba sa kitchen island bago kumuha ng tissue at plastic. Pinanuod ko lang siya habang nililinis ang mga piraso ng nabasag na bote. He is only wearing a black boxer brief and a tight sando. His muscles are flexing everytime he moves.
Napansin ko rin ang malaking tattoo sa kanyang likuran ngunit dahil natatakpan iyon ng sando ay hindi ko alam kung ano at gaano iyon kalaki.
“Kung gutom ka, maaari mo naman akong tawagin.”
“Kaya kong alagaan ang sarili ko.”
“Bahay ko ito.”
I placed both of my hands at the top of the counter and leaned over to watch him.
‘Step on him,’ my mind shouted and I did what it told me.
Nahinto si Ryker nang lumapat ang talampakan sa kanyang balikat. Unti-unti siyang tumingala sa akin– seryoso ang kanyang mukha. Nagtatagis ang kanyang panga na tumingin sa aking paa bago sa akin.
“What do you think you’re doing?”
“It’s nice to see you kneel in front of me.”
Marahan siyang tumayo at binato ang plastic sa basurahan bago tuluyang humarap sa akin. He placed himself between my thighs. I was now acutely aware of his closeness. The smell of his cologne: woodsy, spicy and rich. I could feel the warmth radiate off him.
“You dirtied my kitchen,” he stated blandly. “And pulled a brat move.”
“Sorry.”
He stood, and I could feel him retreat.
“Are you?” he asked, his tone soft and mild.
“Hindi.”
“Hindi ka pa nakakaisang araw dito, Olivia, and you're already causing problems.”
I opened my mouth to give a sarcastic reply, but the words fell away as my gaze dropped to his lips. This is so frustrating.
“Olivia…”
My gaze moved back up to his.
He studied me. “What’s on your mind, baby?”
His eyes showed curiosity mingled with something else, something I couldn’t fathom. Baby.
This man is an alpha male. He is. I feel so feminine in front of him. I never felt like this before— and I have been with multiple men.
I should submit to him. But, NO.
Never.
I am Olivia Piper Robles. I do not submit to anyone. I am always on the top.
“Your defense wall is up again. Loosened up, Olivia.”
Kumunot ang noo ko nang marinig ang sinabit niya.
“What did you say?”
“Narinig mo ako.”
Naningkit ang aking mga mata. “You don’t know me.”
“I’ve known you long before, little lady.”
I put my arms around his neck and played with his hair. “Then, you should know how crazy I am.”
“Crazy is an understatement.”
“That’s why you should not disappoint, Ryker. I came here to have some fun.”
“I took you here for a reason.”
Inilapit ko ang mukha sa kanya. “To be your slave?”
“We don’t treat women as sl-ve or s-x sleeve, Olivia. We are equal here.”
“Sounds like a dream.”
“What do you want now?”
“You can read me. You know what’s on my mind, Ryker,” I whispered, almost like I was hypnotizing him, luring him into my intricate web of desire.
I grasped his hand and placed it on my bare thigh. He flinched, wanting to remove it, but I held him still.
Scorching heat penetrated my skin immediately.
“I don’t,” he said quietly.
“Don’t act stupid.”
Gahibla na lamang ang layo ng aming mga labi ngunit walang gusto na magpatalo. Parehas namin na pinipigilan ang isa’t-isa na malunod sa pagnanais.
I licked my lips. “You know what I want. You just don’t want to lose.”
“D*mn right.”
Hindi ko inaasahan ang pag-atras nito at pagtalikod sa akin.
“There’s an instant pancake mix in the cupboard and butter in the fridge. Don’t burn my kitchen.”
Did he just…
Did he just resist me?!
Me?!
