"DID YOU stole a kiss from him too the reason why he is pursuing you?" be said that made my forehead crease."I did not steal a kiss from him. He is the one who wants it from me," I said defending myself. Did he think that I would just kiss anybody who was available? What a scum! He is the first and last person whom I stole a kiss from but I will never ever let him know about that. I must keep my head high.My eyes grew wide when he welcomed me with a heated kiss on the lips. I put my hand on his wide chest to push him but my body is a traitor. I liked the way this man kissed me if I am to be honest. Long, exciting and carnal. That is how he kissed me. The way I almost chased his lips every time it ended gave me an unknown feeling within me. After the long and deep kiss, with our foreheads leaning on each other, I blew deep breaths. Gasps of air while looking at his alluring lips.'Is it not that the other day you are hesitating about his feelings for you b

"WHO WAS that?" Matias said when he reached me. "What happened?""Another visitor tonight," I said as my jaw tightened. "A visitor?"I averted my glare at him. "From now on, there will be someone who will guard every night in this place. Make sure that this incident will never happen again in the future. I do not want any visit at this godly hour of the day," I said and turned my back at him.If only he woke and went to me earlier, we would have captured that man. He will always come whenever he is not needed."Is it not the only one you fought? Who sent them?" he asked while tailing me.I quickly turned to him and glared, again. "Tell me, who did they come here for, Matias? This never happened in the past because they are all afraid to be here. Who are they after they have been brazen to send men here?" I sarcastically said.He stopped for a moment and realized the answer for his question. "The two kids.""Adrina," I sai

I HALTED scooping water on the creek and looked into the part of the woods where trees are all full when I sensed someone looking at me. I put the jar down and went there. My brows furrowed when I found a familiar horse. It took me another step to find who the owner is. I did not expect to see anyone here at this time of the day. He had his grip unto the lead of the horse, seemingly to place it there at the tree.His lop-sided grin greeted me with utmost enthusiasm while he bathed in the shock expression on my face. I eyed him from head to toe to make sure I was seeing it correctly and that was really him, in front of me. I cannot escape feeling attracted to his looks and charm, his posture and everything, as if feeling bewitched. When I regained my senses, I approached him and hit him in the chest."What are you doing here?" I asked, nervously eyeing the surroundings for any presence. I was relieved when I got none so I returned my eye to him.

I STOPPED in front of the palace when I saw him going out from the high gates. His eyes immediately met mine so I smiled at him sweetly. He flinched a little when he realized that he was seeing me. Perhaps that I have done a better job at making myself more pretty than my usual.I spinned a couple of times for him to see my whole being. I do not have a cloak that covers me and I fixed my hair. I even have a flower ornament on my ear.He speedily went to me and held both of my cheeks, landing a quick peck on my lips. My face seems to have been heated because of what he did in front of the other creatures that are lurking outside the palace."You are so beautiful. I apologize for not being able to help myself not to kiss you." He inched again his face on mine but I backed away.

I CANNOT erase the smile on my lips even until I got back to our hideout. Looks like my eyes do not have enough of glancing at the ring in my finger given by Sevasti from time to time. It fits me perfectly, like it was made for my finger. What a glorious thing. "Matias!" I blurted out of shock when he suddenly appeared in front of me. He followed my gaze to my finger so I slightly hid my hand behind me. The place is dark so I bet he did not see it. The thing that caught my eyes so bad I cannot help but stare at it in awe. "What do you need?" I asked with a timid smile on my face.He stared at me for a while before speaking."The plans about the weapons, why did they change?" he asked, seriously.My sight averted to Vivi who is s
