Kiss For The Sin 179
Leaning on the railing of the tree house inside the Costello mansion, I couldn't help to think about Sain Czar. The wind is cold, thanks to my thick cotton jacket that protect me from shivering I was able to went outside despite the freezing night. I lifted my gaze to the clear night sky filled with shimmering dots of lights. It's been a long day, the first day that I was not with Sain since I pretend to be Selena Castania. For the months I was with him, I slowly get used of being called Selena, wife, darling, and little. And right now that I couldn't heard any of those words the rest of the day, I feel like missing it. I took a deep breath. Missing it is a big mistake. It is wrong for a Costello like me but I couldn't help it. Even just for some time, I don't want to be hypocrite. Maybe the change of my feelings toward Sain Czar is the reason why I am questioning myself, my worth, and my identity as a Costello. I gave down on the ring I am wearing. I haven't take it off yet, if A
Kiss For The Sin 180
"Cesar Ildefonso killed my family..." I remind myself while looking at my reflection on the mirror. I could no longer see the sweet smile of Selena Castania that I used to wear when greeting the people around me. The woman in the mirror is Herravie Costello, the woman who seeks vengeance. I am holding the gun that Luscio Costello gave me while reminding myself that I must hand this gun back at him stained with Sain Czar's blood. That's the only way I can prove to myself and to the Costello that I am one of them and I deserve to be a Costello woman. I am confused right now but this is no time for me to question everything. Despite relying on the memories I remember, still, I am hesitant if what I am doing right now is the best thing for me, for my family, and for the Costello. All I know is I must do something. I am force to do something because that's my responsibility since I become a Costello woman. I shut my eyes close and Sain Czar's handsome face flash on my mind. I could n

"Father cannot always defend you to the council, Hera. It may be sound as if I am forcing you but you need to finish this mission. Do not fail it" he said, voice that weigh so much emotion opposite to his serious face. I am force to do something even if I was not told to. It feels as if there is an invisible hand that push me to do things that I am hesitant to commit. Even without words, no command, on the back of my head I am force to things, to act with initiative. "I know what's my role in this family and what is my responsibility in the organization, Jaxer" I pause and took a deep breath. "I have to listen and be obedient even if that kills me inside. Even if I had to ignore my own emotion, what matters is to always get the work done without a mistake" A single tear escape my eyes followed by the strong blows of the wind. I am not sure if Jaxer saw it but one thing is for sure, he is aware that I am struggling right now. There is a silent dilemma inside me and my hesitation is
Kiss For The Sin 182
I GASP and open my eyes widely. An unfamiliar ceiling greeted me gone the huge fire that's been occupying my vision while I am sleeping. I breath heavily catching for air, I felt as if I run for miles because of the up and down movement of my chest and the sweat on my forehead. After slowly recovering from the same nightmare that has been haunting me for fifteen long years, a realization came to my head. I am inside an unfamiliar room, a place that I am sure I haven't see before even just once. Where am I? What happen to me? I scan my eyes around and no matter how I tried to familiarize the place, I really couldn't recognize it. The last thing I remember is when I got a fight with Cassinno because of our sudden encounter and Antonio help me to escape but unfortunately, he also saw how I carelessly let go Cassinno and refuse to shoot it on the head despite having a chance to do it. But I should not think about it, what I should focus right now is to know what the hell happen to me.

"What are you trying to say?" I hissed, eyes are burning with rage. I could feel my blood boiling as I look at him sharply with fisted hand. If I just had a gun right now, for sure the barrel is already on his head. If looks could kill, Sain Czar Ildefonso is probably dead by now. The expression of his face remain while looking at me intently. He is not bothered how I look at him flaunting my anger. Although I see no emotion in his deep drowning eyes, I know on the back of his head, a lot of thoughts is bothering him. Sain always maintain his composure but that doesn't mean he doesn't losses his temper. He's just good at hiding his real emotion. He's difficult to read, he's not easy to predict. He is mysterious as his name. "I am just simply stating what I know, woman" he reply in a straight tone as his eyes carefully trail to my neck down to my expose shoulders and arms. Does he know something? Or he is trying to know something from me that's why he's doing this. Provoking me.
Kiss For The Sin 184
"My real name is Celeste Astraea Cortezi, the promised bride of Cassinno, your brother" I stare at Sain Czar's face not wanting to miss even just a little change of his emotion. I am attentive even to the movement of his brows and blink of his eyes a sign of him taken aback with my statement. Perhaps he already had a hint about my real identity but I am still expecting a surprise reaction from him but then I got nothing. His handsome face remain stoic, his eyes are darker than its normal shade, and his lips is on the thin line. If he was difficult to read a while ago, I think it got harder even more right now. It feels as if there is a sudden dark force that surround Sain Czar and the menacing around that revolves around him is a bit alarming. My mind is giving me a warning signal that I should stay away from him because I might end up dead with his hands but at the same time the other side of me is confident that Sain will not do anything to hurt me which sound so freaking stupid
Kiss For The Sin 185
"Do you really want to kill me?" I stilled on my spot as he look at me straight to my eyes. His dark soulful eyes holds so much emotion, the intensity of his gaze makes me feel as if he could see what's on my mind. But despite with that, his tone is challenging as if he's provoking me to say something that I will make him believe. My lips move but surprisingly, there's no voice came out. There is a sudden lump on my throat giving me difficulties to breath in I don't know the reason. One thing is for sure, I am having a hard time to answer Sain Czar as if it was the most difficult question that I have ever encounter. "I am asking you, woman" he hissed. "Do you really intend to kill?" His voice is demanding and the strong presence he exude suddenly makes me feel small. For the first time, I feel intimidated with him and all I wanted to do right now is to step back and run away. Why? What's with me? Was my mind already sided to Sain Czar but I am just being in denial? Did I really
Kiss For The Sin 186
