It was noontime when they arrived at the mansion that Saturday. As planned, they will spend their weekend at Zeke's family as promised to her mother-in-law. The hacienda Saldivar was located in the southeast Province of Marinduque and it's two and a half hours drive from the city. They left the pad around 9 am the reason they arrived in the hacienda around noontime. She woke up late because she waited for an overseas call from her friend Sybil from Paris, France. Sybil was her trusted friend who manages her gallery whirl she was away. Her friend consulted some business deals and the important transactions on the gallery to her last night the reason she woke up late. It's a good thing Zeke prepared a heavy breakfast that they had eaten so they left with a full stomach before they headed on their trip.
According to Zeke, the hacienda is approximately ten hectares and
The Saldivar family welcomed her very warmly. Don Juancho and her mother-in-law express their gladness because of this visit and decide to spend their weekend with them. Zeke's grandpa was sweet and seemed kind as well just like her mother-in-law. Then she finally met Anika, the sister of Zeke who has down syndrome. Her mother-in-law was right, she was a joyful and sociable sweet girl and she found herself being fond of her sister-in-law. She was easy to get along with and she has this cheerful and energetic laugh that is so contagious and a smile that will snatch and melt your heart. She never had a little sister and seeing Anika made her feel like she wants to protect and treat her like her own sister too. She was so innocent, an angel that needs to be protected from the harm of the world. She volunteered and help prepare food together wi
"Are you seducing me?" Zeke said eyeing her from head to toe the moment she came out of the bathroom. "What do you mean?" She asked innocently.She was aware that the nightie she was wearing is a bit sexy and revealing. She was wearing a V-neck silk nightdress that is above the knees. It's her usual nightdress and to her stupidity, she forgot that Zeke and her needed to share a room in his parent's house since they were a married couple. The nightie she was wearing reveals her cleavage and her slender legs and that is probably what her husband is looking right now."Wearing that skimpy sexy nightie? Seriously?" He said sneering. She don't know why but she suddenly felt her cheeks flush when she saw his eyes raking her body with raw desire in his eyes."I don't know what you're talking about. This Is what I usually wear when I sleep." She replied n
Shivering in annoyance and anger, she decided to walk out of their room to breathe some air after fixing herself that morning. How foolish she can be to get affected and assume he will care for her? Zeke is anything but a cold-hearted and insensitive bastard. There is no way he will care for her because the man only thinks the worst of her. What would she expect from him anyway? She decided to walk to the garden to compose herself. There, she saw Anika on the backyard patio with her Nanny/Nurse. "Good morning, sister-in-law!" The girl cheerfully greeted with a sweet smile on her lips the moment she saw her. She walks forward to come closer and greet her a good morning when she noticed her coloring something on a sketch pad. It was a flower drawing and she was using acrylic pai
Wearing a tucked moisture-wicking shirt with skin-tight denim trousers partnering with a leather braided belt and a pair of black high boots, she was not bragging but she knows she has sexy curves in the right places, and the clothes she decided to wear just emphasized her sexy body. She was not showing too much skin with her outfit just like her jerk of a husband told her but he cannot deny the fact that she still looked sexy and alluring because the clothes she wore just fit her perfectly. She couldn't help to raise her brow when she find out that Zeke was already waiting for her at the landing of the grand staircase when she was about to descend the stairs. She never failed to notice the lingering stare of Zeke the moment he saw her. She even smirked when he immediately jerked his eyes away from her when she caught him checking her features.At the stable, Zeke chose a beautiful black Texas-bred Arabian stallion to ride on. They ride one horse to
It was their last night at the hacienda and they have decided to go back tomorrow morning to the Capital. She never expected that she will enjoy her stay in the hacienda with Zeke's family. Strange but she enjoys staying with them even for a short period of time- a feeling she never thought she would feel. Their genuine care and concern like they fully accept her as a new member of their family is something she was grateful about. She must have been lucky to have a family like theirs if only this is really meant for her. The sad thing is this is not really for her. She was just a replacement for her sister so she shouldn't be feeling happy this way.That night the family had dinner in the dining room. She volunteered and help prepare the food with her mother-in-law together with the mansion's cook. The old woman patiently taught her to cook her specialty and she made Chocolate pots de crème for dessert. She gladly taught the old woman how to do the dessert since it's French cuisine an
It was early morning when they left the hacienda. Her mother-in-law hugged her and gave them the advice to take care and love each other, told her son to be careful in driving and always be good to her. If only the old woman knew how he treated her, how she wished he will take that advice from his mother. If that happens, she swears she will thank the old woman for that wonderful advice. Anika hugged her so tight as well and even cried when they were about to go. Her mother-in-law promise they will visit the Capital as soon as they had time. She knew she will miss them, that's for sure."Anika immediately likes you. She doesn't usually behave like that when she just got along with you for days." Zeke told her when they were in the car.Having a feeling the brute is starting to pick up a fight, her eyes darted his way and gave him a bad look. His eyes were on the road and didn't even give her a glance knowing her attention was on him now."What? Are you going to accuse me again that I p
It's been two days since Zeke went out of the country for a business trip to Australia. This is the first time they have been separated after a few months of being married to him and it's kinda strange because she felt like missing him. She remembered they had a small fight a day before he left and she was somehow guilty. They were having breakfast that time when he approach her about it. "I'll be leaving the country for a week for business," she remembered he told her. It's the first time he told her he will be away for days and he nicely approaches her. "O-Okay..." she replied. Well for her, it wasn't that necessary to tell her what's his purpose of being away for a week since they had an agreement to not mind each other's business. She noticed his lingering stares as if he has something to tell her so she met his eyes again. "Uh... Is there something you want me to bring or buy you when I come back?" He asked in a hesitant tone which she find unusual. "No, thank you. You don
Having instant noodles and steamed veggies for dinner, she decided to take her food to the living room while watching television. This is what she used to do before in her apartment in France and this is also her way of relaxing after a long and heavy day of work. While enjoying a good reality show on tv, her attention was caught by the silhouette of a man from the main door. To her surprise, it was nothing but her one and only husband. Knowing he will be out of the country for the whole week, she never expected he will come home this Thursday night. She couldn't seem to explain but her traitor heart suddenly rumbled wildly after seeing him unexpectedly. Strange but it feels like she had missed him even though they only got separated for days."I-I t-thought you'll be coming home next week?" her words are stammering. Damn her heart for it doesn't stop rumbling wildly. It suddenly made it hard to breathe.She wanted to castigate herself for acting sill
