ABOUT THE BOOK
Clandestine Affair, book 1 of Affair Duology, is finally completed!
This is the first novel I’ve completed so far and it is a long and hard journey as procrastination always gets the best of me. I enjoyed writing this and I will start writing book 2 of the Affair Duology as soon as I finished editing and revising book 1. All the revelations will be revealed and explained in the second book. If you came to hate Vishnu in the first book, his actions would be justified (I hope so) in the second book.Also, book 2 will include stories of our side characters. I hope you support and love the second book as much as you do in the CA.That's all! We’ll see each other in the second book, readers. Love lots!Related chapters
Clandestine Affair HIS BROTHER: Mission
The ambient glow highlighted the determination in his gaze as his sturdy jaw tightened. Jerson's smug expression persisted as he effortlessly surpassed the average typing speed, the rhythmic clicks of his keyboard shattering the silence in the room. His mouse movements were equally precise, showcasing his adept control.With a satisfied grin, Jerson leaned back in his chair, gazing proudly at the screen as if he'd crafted a masterpiece. A deliberate tap on the space button and a decisive press of enter initiated the playback of an online video, filling the room with visual and auditory stimulation.The online tape, often mistaken by users as a standard murder documentary, is, according to experts, an unscripted recording of a real crime. The circumstantial evidence suggests the authenticity of the footage, depicting gruesome scenes with bloody bodies and victims strangled with cords.Jerson, undeterred by the disturbing content, resumed control of the mouse, clicking the next button t
Clandestine Affair HIS BROTHER: The Decent Brother
Jerson felt restless as he drove. He could hear his own heartbeat. His breathing was volatile. He felt restless. The prospect of Noah facing potential harm during their mission fueled Jerson's anxiety. Despite Noah's capabilities, the uncertainty of when a person might meet their end weighed heavily on him, adding tension to his thoughts.The traffic enforcers herded the people to the side of the road. The gunshot-induced traffic jam slowed their progress. The boulevard descended into chaos, further complicating the situation.Cursing under his breath, Jerson’s feat arises. He feared that if he couldn't reach Noah quickly, the Avialanche might corner his partner. The looming threat of Noah being killed intensified his urgency.He tried calling him again but to no avail.Jerson gritted his teeth. If he guessed it right, Noah had turned off his phone. He frustratedly bit his lips, condemning him. His irritation rose.Jerson’s disheveled hair pranced with the air. He drove his car even f
Clandestine Affair HIS BROTHER: Ambushed
“...I’m his brother.”Jerson just looked at Vishnu and Noah. He found it very strange. He was sure that Noah set things up but he wasn’t sure why Noah would resort to this. What would he be gaining from this? Nothing. Noah could gain nothing from it. He was just wasting time playing this futile game.Jerson closed his eyes and groaned.“It would be a shame if you ignore my hand.”Jerson maintained a steady gaze at Vishnu as the prosecutor extended his hand. Pressing his lips, Jerson contemplated Vishnu's unusual behavior. The question lingered in his mind: What's up with Vishnu, and what's the connection between these seemingly indifferent siblings?Despite the potential lack of harm, Jerson hesitated to accept Vishnu's extended hand. Uncomfortable merely in the presence of Vishnu, the prospect of clasping hands with the prosecutor intensified his restlessness.But wouldn't it be more disrespectful to ignore him? Vshnu was just being polite. Jerson gulped, reluctantly extending his h
Clandestine Affair HIS BROTHER: Fired
Jerson felt a slight pain on his face. He looked at himself in the mirror. As he stared at his reflection to check if there was a wound, he noticed a cut. There was blood coming out from it. He washed it to prevent the blood from spewing around his face. “I should have cut his finger to get back with this,” he mumbled. He felt the great urge to beat up whoever punk made this to him. He sighed. He washed it again and left it for a few moments to let his face dry.He examined himself in front of the mirror once again. He made sure to look presentable before leaving the comfort room. After a few moments, he walked out of the four-cornered room and found his way to the two.The restaurant was crowded with customers. Even on the pavement way to the lounge area, many people were standing and talking to each other. Some were answering calls. Jerson finally entered the main hall. He saw the two men elegantly sitting, facing each other. Anyone could tell that the two came from a well-off fam
Clandestine Affair HIS BROTHER: Protect Him
“Forcing me to do things like this….” Jerson couldn’t finish what he wanted to say. He saw how Vishnu’s hand tightened into fist. He sighed and looked at Vishnu whose temper seemed to be wearing thin. “Did you even ask about the prosecutor's opinion about this?” he asked.He was confident that Vishnu wouldn’t agree with it given that they were awkward together. Their encounter earlier sprouted the awkwardness growing between them and he knew that there was no way the prosecutor would want to be with him.He brushed his hair and waited for Vishnu to answer. “I’m okay with it.” Vishnu’s tone was so sharp. His voice was raspy and cold, making Jerson stare at him. Jerson furrowed his brows and tilted his head. He couldn’t tell why Vishnu didn’t refute and declined Noah’s suggestion when an obvious disgust was plastered on Vishnu's face. Now, he was devastated by the fact that he won’t be able to repudiate the proposition now that the prosecutor had already accepted it.Who was he to dec
Clandestine Affair HIS BROTHER: Irritation
Jerson examined the whole area. He was anxious. He felt like someone was following them and was planning to kill Vishnu. He roamed his gazes around while his chin leaned on his palm. There was no one suspicious inside.He looked outside the restaurant. There was a person sitting inside the eatery at the convenience store. It was an ideal spot for a criminal when stalking someone. The man was eating, perhaps, cup noodles. After only a few moments, the guy went outside and left. He scratched his head. There was also no one suspicious outside.He took a deep breath. Maybe he was just anxious and overreacting. There was nothing skeptical among the people outside and inside the restaurant. In his years of working for the Empresarium, he already knew the faces of those mafia residing in the underworld. He rested his back on the backrest and loosened up. He stared at Vishnu, who was grinning at the woman. Seeing it just ticked him off. Vishnu was enjoying himself. He could tell how relax
Clandestine Affair HIS BROTHER: Feelings
Jerson got up and walked outside immediately after he heard a rustle outside the mansion. He leaned his back on the wall beside the door, looking for something, perhaps looking for a sign of the disturbance caused by the intruders. He took a short nap in the living room and got up after he noticed noise from the outside. It wasn’t that loud, but it could still be heard by someone who had his guard up. He took out a cigarette and a lighter in his pocket before he lit it and put it in between his lips. Earlier, Vishnu didn’t give him an earful which he thought was acceptable based on Vishnu’s attitude. Giving him the cold shoulder was still normal based on Vishnu’s temperance; however, it still agitates him. Vishnu treats him like he didn’t exist at all. He kept on asking what the problem was, but Vishnu wouldn’t respond, leaving him feeling very conflicted.The fact that Vishnu treats him like that and his nap was disturbed, he couldn’t wait to strangle the intruder and let out his fr
Clandestine Affair His Brother: Running Away?
“Please breathe. You’re making me worried.”Vishnu stiffened his body. His muscles tensed. He scratched his head, aiming to make sense of everything. Yet, he couldn’t. He wanted to smack himself. How could he act like that? Ever since he realized why he’d been feeling weird the first time he met Jerson until now, he drew the line. He just met the person for fuck’s sake so why would he feel that way? And to a man, huh?Everything just doesn't add up. There is no freaking way!He knows himself better! He isn’t against the lgbtqi+ community and the projects they had established helping them in battling for their rights over the time, and he’s definitely not homophobic, however, thinking he was one of them was way too absurd. He could never accept that. He’d been straight all his life!Vishnu took a deep breath while Jerson continued fixing his tie. Once again, he found himself attracted to Jerson’s fragrance. He stopped breathing again when he smelled the same fragrance he scented at the
