"Mia Signora!" I stop walking when I heard Eredia calling me from behind. I mentally sigh controlling the annoyance because of her sudden interruption with my attempt to go upstair and rest my aching back on my room. I took a deep breath and turn around flashing my innocent smile to the innocent young lady in front of me. It's been a week since the last time I saw her. Well, nothing actually change. I just realize that she is still too young to die. I mean, I am now planning my betrayal to Sain Czar Ildefonso, my so called husband. Eredia could die if she keeps on following me around or once she finds out something about me. I cannot choose her life over the plan I have been waiting for fifteen years. I hope she keeps her distance to me just like the first time I came here. If she become more comfortable, there is a tendency that she will ends up discovering my secret. "Nice seeing you again Erie" I greeted her softly with a sweet smile. "What do you want by the way?" I query. I
"Go home safe, Herravie..." The last thing my father remind me before the call end. I tighten my grip on the phone as I slowly put it down while staring the clear night sky. I wanted to go home safe as well. It's been more than three months now and I honestly forgot how does it feels to sleep inside my room in the Costello's mansion. This is the longest mission that I had experience and I must say that it is the most difficult. It is difficult because I experience hesitation. I failed to trust my father's word when in fact I should have hold into it because that is what I need. He know things better than me and I should have listen. Defying him was the biggest mistake I ever did as his daughter. I just hope I please him once again once I finish this mission successfully. The cold night breeze blows and I hug myself because of that. Sain Czar is still not around, I haven't seen him for a week and for some reason I do not want to sleep without knowing that he already arrive. I gaze
I gasp when he suddenly yanks me against him before bending his head to kiss me. I moan with the feeling of satisfaction when our lips meet each other as if I have been waiting for it for so long. There is so much things I need to think about but ironically all I could think of right now is the pleasure between us. I don't know much about human intimacy, I have been saying it before for how many times. But I can understand it now. The sweetness of it, the heat as if my body wanted to convulse, it is driving me crazy and I couldn't get enough of it. The fast palpitation of my heart doesn't scream with nervousness but excitement. I am shivering with so much anticipation because I am now drown in a kind of pleasure that makes it hard to collect myself. I melt into him even more as his fingers tangle in my hair down to my nape. My mouth parted and our tongue collided in an instance. I feel Sain move towards the bed and held my waist tightly pulling me into a deeper and harder kiss whi
"I know my responsibility Apollo" I pause and took a deep breath. "I have been living with that responsibility for fifteen years. That is not something I will forget"I added. I know my responsibility very well. Does he have to remind me about it? I never failed to say that my existence means vengeance. My life as a Costello means I need to kill. My hands are not clean since I become a Costello. My hands are stain with blood that I could no longer erase. "You know that I didn't mean anything with that" he calmly utter. "I am just trying to prevent things that will ruined your mission, Hera" I bit my lower lip. Apollo is doubting me just like how I doubt myself right now. No matter how he make his words less offensive and accusing still I know what behind those lines. I also know where did it started. Since I already disobey our father once, of course for them it is easy for me to disobey our father once again. I cannot blame him. I blame myself in fact and I guess I will be in a
I was Celeste Astraea Cortezi before Luscio Costello rescue me from Cesar Ildefonso. I am the woman they have been finding for fifteen years. Luscio Costello protected me, he change my name and adopt me that is why Ilde Famiglia cannot find me. I know it was my father command to keep the details about my past that is why I didn't question him when I heard from Zacharias that someone from Sintti came to him and get the result of the investigation. That is his way to protect me from Ildefonso. I couldn't understand why Cesar Ildefonso is eager to find me. I can't understand especially when it feels as if they had a good intentions that is why they are searching for me. He killed my parents, he killed Cladia in front of me. He tried to kill me as well so why would he find me? The only reason I can think of is because he wanted to kill me too just like what Dad said. After what he did to my family, after he ruined my family. I don't think that I can trust that so called intention that
"I don't want to keep secrets to my wife" My eyes glisten with tears. We are now inside the private room and I guess the woman who was assigned to assist ask is already wondering what is happening to me and Sain. We are just talking and not making order. But what should I do? My heart is aching for him, my husband who will die on my hands tonight. I have so many secrets, dark secret that once he finds out he will kill me in an instant. I shook my head and my eyes landed on the ring I am wearing. I should stop this. I cannot continue this mission while having this kind of feeling, I do not want to regret in the end. "Sain, listen" I held his hand. "We should go-" I was stop when his phone suddenly rang inside the room. Sain look at me a bit apologetic, I am hopeful that he will end the call but he didn't."I will just answer this" he utter. I slowly let go of his hand and he turn around before answering his phone. I lick my lower lip and run my fingers through my hair. I suddenl
I froze on my spot when I saw Sain Czar pointing a gun to my brother Jaxer. I tighten my grip on the gun I am holding doesn't know which side I should choose. On the back of my head, I know that I should sided with my brother because Sain is our enemy but then for some reason I couldn't erase inside my head that Sain become my husband and I become his wife. I am torn in between, in short. I do not want anyone of them get hurt because for sure it will greatly affect me. But then that thinking is stupid. I came here to kill Sain Czar. I plan this, all of this so that I could finish this mission and prove to the council that I can do it and I was not hesitating. I should kill Sain Czar, the son of the man who killed my parents, the brother of the man who killed Enzo. Sain's family took everything away from me and I am left with nothing now. I should not waste this chance given to me, especially now that I am standing at his back, not aware with my presence. "What are you waiting for?!
AT THE COSTELLO MANSION I walk fast attempting to head straight towards my room but Apollo stop me. I look at him sharply but he didn't let go of my hand. "Let me go" I hissed, flaunting the anger in my eyes. "We need to clean that wound. Adhicer is in the clinic mending Jaxer's wound, wait there" he said. He look and sound calmer compared to me. I shake my head and pulled my hand away from him. I don't like the way he treated me right now, he should scold me, he should scream because I didn't killed Sain Czar but look at him right now? He looks calm as if I didn't do anything to him. "I pointed a gun on you" I remind him. "Aren't you mad at me?" I gritted my teeth, almost crying. I hate myself. I am mad at myself right now because since I become Sain Czar's wife, I always failed. Since I went to Ildefonso's Residence, everything I did was a failure. My decisions are failure. "I know that it was not intentional. Even if you point that gun on me, I am sure that you will never pu
