Chapter 3
“What happen?” They just shrugged and continue drinking.
I pouted and look at Luke who’s pretty wasted. “P-Pearl?” he looks at me with his hopeful eyes but every time he calls me that name I feel like crying but I have to get use to it.
“Hmm?” I smile as I hold his cheeks. How did I resist him for the past few days? I feel sad looking at him right now. “Why?”
“Don’t you love me?” He asked while he looks at me straight in the eye. “In our wedding day, in our first night, I saw the look in your eye and it’s all I can think about. Sadness, is all I can think of when I remember it and it made me think if you really love me.”
It break my heart seeing him like this. Luke has always been strong and nothing bother him but now something did and it will never be me… because in his heart it’s always my sister who he loves.
“Of course I love you… I have always love you Luke.” I bit my lips as he sadly smile.
“Then, are you mad at me? I can’t think of anything that’s making you don’t want to spend time with me.”
“I love you Luke and I’m sorry… I-I was just overwhelm.” I didn’t wait for him to say anything and ask his friends to help me to get Luke into the car.
I put on his seat belt while he close his eyes, probably asleep. When I get in the car I look at him sleeping peacefully. I was indeed overwhelmed but I was also guilty because how can I lie to the person I love just so I could spend some time with him and pretend like we’re married because we love each other.
I love my sister but I hate for leaving Luke like this. He deserve so much better, he didn’t do anything wrong but love her like anyone could ask for… like I could ask for. Why didn’t he fell for me? It would probably be easier--not for my parents but for us. I sometimes wonder if things were different if that accident didn’t happen would my parents and I be close? I have so many what ifs but it always come back to, it already happen and I can’t change the past.
“Pearl.” Stop calling me that, please.
I stop the car when we arrive home. The maids immediately open the gate for us but even after arriving I didn’t step out in the car and look at Luke closely.
“Pearl, please love me.” I look away as I saw tears start falling from his eyes. It hurts seeing him like this especially when I view him as a strong person. Nothing bother him but the love that my sister can’t give him does.
I bit my lips and get out of the car. I gesture some of the maids to help me move Luke to the car. We had a hard time carrying him as he was huge and we were all so little and by the time we arrive at the room we were sweating.
“Thank you. I’ll take care of him.” I said and close the door, I have to change his clothes but I can’t bring myself to face him yet knowing that. “I will never being to him.” I whispered and smile sadly before I turn around and I jumped as he was staring at me. “I didn’t know you were awake.” I said as I walk towards him but he didn’t say anything and just look at me seriously. It made me wonder if he heard what I said earlier but I stay calm.
“Did you say something?” He asked as he sit on the side of the bed and I can no longer find the courage to walk near him.
“No.” I denied. He smiled revealing a small dimple on both of his cheeks, one more thing that I love about him. He stood up and slowly walk towards my way, still looking at me. I gulp and step forward but it was too late as he’s already in front of me.
He’s so close that I can feel his hot breath on my forehead. I refuse to look up but he hold my chin and made me look at him. His lips are on my forehead and he tilted his head to have a clearer view of me. I bit my lips as I stare at his captivating brown eyes wanting to drown into them.
I look away as he move his face closer to mine. I can’t kiss him, I can’t betray my sister and this isn’t part of the plan.
But damn his stare is seducing and hypnotizing me in every chance he gets. His dark two block haircut that made him more attractive. Those kind eyes are now mysterious and dark that made me wonder how can this man be so attractively kind looking and at the same time hot? And no matter how hard I try not to drown in his eyes but I did and I can’t surface, I refuse to because for some reason I’m loving this moment more than anything in the world.
He dips his head down and brush his lips against my neck to my ear. The sensation I felt spread my body that made me close my eyes tight and feel his fingertips brushing my waist in a lazy manner. “Do you like it?” He whispers in my ear that made me hold on to his shirt tight.
How can I contain myself? I can’t even calm down even after a small touch. I felt him smirk in my ears as I brush my hands to his chest. “Tell me you love me and all my worries will disappear.” He said, demanding me.
And I can only oblique like a weak slave for his master. “I fucking love you.” I bit lips and my eyes widen as I said that, that’s not how Pearl would say it but he doesn’t seem to notice as he chuckle and brush his nose to my hair before kissing it.
“No one ever touch you like I did.” He suddenly said as he pull my clothes. My breathing becomes heavy as he successfully remove my clothes. I feel his other hands going up and down on my waist while he kiss my shoulder blades. “and here you are weak for me.” he whisper before nibbling my ear making sure that I know I’m his and only weak for him.
I face him and look at his lips boldly. I then look into his eyes--I can’t take it anymore, I need to kiss him. He’s observing me and waiting for what I will do next. I tiptoe and hold his shoulder for support and kiss his lips, a small kiss but when I let go he grab me by by waist and pressed me into his body to kissed me more. “You can’t do that and leave me hanging.” He smirk when he saw my whipped expression.
His kiss was slow and passionate and I it’s sending me butterflies in my stomach the more he touch every part of my body and kisses me. We’re both walking towards somewhere while still kissing, my dress is bothering me and I want to get it out of the way already but Luke seems to have other plans. He made me lay on the bed as he remove his clothes in front of me. I bit my lips and didn’t bother to look away while he undress.
“Do you like what you’re seeing?” He smirk as he throw his button down somewhere. I didn’t answer and force my mouth to close as I don’t want to look desperate but Luke seems to already have an opinion.
He unbuckle his belt and remove his pants until his underwear is exposed together with his standing masculinity. I thought he would remove it all the way but he made me turn around so he could unzip my dress.
I’m breathing heavily as he successfully get my shorts out of the way, I’m only wearing my underwear now without my bras. He’s still behind me and I didn’t know what to do next he take his next move. He kiss me in my nape that made moan a little. His hands wonder around my waist and close the distance between us. “Fuck.” He curse when his hands touch the peak of my breast but that didn’t stop there as he squeeze it one by one but suddenly he stops and scoop me from my seat—that made me scream, and carried me bridal style upstairs, I immediately hold onto his neck while I let him carry me around.
My mouth open a little as I watch him seriously as he lay on top of me and I couldn’t help myself but kiss his neck that made stop and look at me. “You’re making me crazy.” He said and can’t contain himself any longer.
Chapter 4I woke up late as I always do but I noticed that Luke isn’t laying by my side. It made me nervous for some reason that made me get up from bed without anything on except his white polo that was laying on the floor.I hurriedly got down from the stairs but when I arrived downstairs and saw Luke’s topless back, I stopped and flashed a smile. He looks so hot, and did I mention that he’s cooking breakfast? Well, he is and he looks so hot while doing so.“Hey, you, I didn't notice you were there.” Luke said when he faces me, he looks at me from head to toe and I notice that he gulps and wet his lips while I approach him.“You’re up early.” I said but he didn’t reply and still looked at me. “Why? Is there something in my face?” My heart started racing the more he looked at me, did he notice the difference between me and Pearl?“I just can’t believe that you’re my wife.” He said and cupped my face and kissed me deeply.“What was that all about?” I chuckle as he lets go after the ki
Chapter 5 “What is happening, right now? You’re in a relationship with another man?” I love my sister but I can’t stand cheating especially that I know that Luke really loves her. She can’t just do this to him after he committed his life to her. “No, he’s just a friend.” She said but I know she’s lying, she’s biting her nails again, saying that she’s anxious of what’s happening right now. “What are you doing here?” She change the topic. “Didn’t you know that this is where your honeymoon is? Luke is waiting for me in the sun lounger and you’re here. What if he’ll see you? What are you planning to do?” I have so many questions to ask her but I know this won’t be enough. Standing and talking with her right now is dangerous. “Did you see mom already?” She asked nervously and when I shook my head she sigh in relief. “She’s very meticulous, I’m sure you’re aware of that. Please, don’t make her doubt, Ana… because we’re screwed if she found out.” I nodded even though I’m a little irrita
Chapter 6 “Fuck.” I can’t count how many times I heard Luke cursed but I can’t complain because I like how he’s so turned on. Even though he keep saying Pearl’s name, that didn’t stop me from cooperating to what he wants to happen. He made me sit on his lap while I can feel his manhood pressing against my womanhood. “Luke.” I can’t help but moan more as I pull his hair towards my body. I heard him chuckle as his face pressed against my chest. “I didn’t know you were this wild.” He whisper before kissing every part of my chest without a warning. The way he hold my waist while his other hands are massaging my breast while eating the other one makes me more crazy that it fucking hurts. All my life I have been fantasizing this to happen and for the past years that I was just looking at him from the afar I didn’t let any man to feel, touch and have me… even though I know Luke and I are impossible together, I still hold on to the small hope that I have when we were still close… when we
Chapter 7 “Do you like it?” Luke ask while we’re watching the city view from our room. He hugged me from behind and start kissing my shoulder to my neck. “It’s beautiful.” It makes me breathless. This is the third country we went to for our honeymoon. I’ve always wanted to go here and Pearl and I always talk about having a vacation here but it was always cancel due to some things that’s blocking our way AKA our schedule and our parents. “I knew you would love New York.” He said and I just smile and check my phone when it vibrated. I pouted as I saw that it was Pearl… of course named as Ana in my contacts. “We have another article?” Luke chuckle as he saw the pictures taken when we were having our sweet moment in the beach and the other one is when we arrive earlier at the airport. “People are going crazy.” I said and smile as I saw some of the comments saying that we look so happy and in love. Some comments about envying me for marrying the man of their dreams. “They are, some g
Chapter 8 Part 1 “Thank you.” I sigh in relief when the interview was done. I cross my arms and look around, Pearl and I have to switch once again for the night. I’m just waiting for her to finish thanking each of the staff with a handshake, is that really necessary? “Ana, will you help me change?” She smile at me, Luke is by her side confuse of why she would ask me, I think he’s thinking why does she ask me if she could ask him instead but I nodded before Luke could complain. “Sure.” I smile and she said something to Luke before we left. My heart is panting as we went to the room and we change our clothes. We’re now looking at each other in the mirror after changing our clothes, looking for errors that we could correct before leaving the room. “What did you whisper to Luke?” I ask when she was about to go out but stopped when I spoke. “I’ll be back.” She said casually and I just nodded. “He’s really clingy and it’s new to me, he wasn’t like that.” “You’re married, it’s appropr
Chapter 8 Part 2 It’s been so long since I went to my bar. I smile as I enter the smell the addicting scent of music and liquor but one thing caught my attention. It looks like my employee is flirting with a customer. He looks familiar but I can’t exactly remember where I saw him. “Is this what you do in your working hours?” I smirk and sit beside the man in the bar stool that made Kate look at me in horror. “You’re back!?” I don’t know if she sounds happy or not. “Why? You don’t like it?” I smirk and raise my brows to the man she was talking to earlier. “And who is this man? Is this your new prospect? Got tired of my brother?” She pouted as I said that. “That’s Ethan. We’re getting to know each other.” She became a shy teenage girl when she said that but Ethan? That sounds familiar and the way he smile at me it’s like he knew who I am. “You have a nice palette.” A man in his mid-40s approach my booth with his arms crossed while looking at all of my paintings hanging. “You like
Chapter 9 “Evan knows.” “You’re going to my resort.” Pearl and I said at the same time when she enter the condo while I was waiting for her in the living room. It took us a while to process what we just said. “What? Evan knows?” She said in shock and I just nodded. “He supports us though, he said he won’t tell anyone, but wait, isn’t Luke going back to work? Why are we going to your resort?” “I don’t know, we were touring around the company--I don’t know why we did that as we don’t know the company well but back to the topic, it just came out and now Luke wanted to go there… as he said to continue “our honey moon.” She pouted when she spoke the work honey moon. “Oh… but what did you say why you’re going away?” “I just told him I was meeting a friend and he was very clingy and ask me not to come.” She look irritated when she said that… does she hate Luke that much? Why do I like it when he’s being clingy? Is it because of my feelings for him? Truth to be told I don’t mind if he
Chapter 10 “I remember you saying that you love the beach and I just realize that maybe this is the reason why?” I don’t know what to say… because I’m not really in the position to the answer that question but I need to answer… “It is, I love the sunrise and sunset. It makes me wonder about how wonderful life is.” That’s not a lie… that’s what I’m really feeling right now especially that I’m watching the sunset with him. “I can see why.” He said and put his head on my shoulder while I smile as I watch him get comfortable in his position. It feel so good hanging out with him like this. It’s simple but more than enough that I could ask for. “Mommy!” All the solemn and peace was distracted when we heard a crying child. Luke is now sitting still and looking at the child who’s crying and I can’t help but notice the gentleness in his eyes. He stood up and I follow him. “Hey, kid. You lost your mommy?” Luke ask while arching his back to talk to the kid.” The kid nodded and looks at me.
