The Playboy's Pursuit

7: His conditions

SUZY'S POV

"Anong masasabi mo ngayon sa mga bulaklak mo, Liam? Was it pretty hard enough to get your senses back? O kailangan ko pang lakasan ang paghambalos ko sa'yo nang tigilan mo na'ko??"

The moment I sarcastically asked that, I suddenly felt alarmed when he throw me a dark glare habang hawak-hawak pa rin nito ang mukha nito.

I think bigla nalang nag-iba ang tingin nito ngayon. Gone was the playful look in his eyes and he seems so dangerous now...

I stepped back in alarm when I noticed him rushed towards me.

"Anong gagawin---"

Before I could even complete that question, his hand instantly found my neck now before he pushed me and pinned me against the wall behind me.

The instant my back made contact to the cold wall, I let out a cry while grimacing in pain.

His hold at me wasn't that tight for a strangulation but just enough to pin me still. Binitiwan ko na agad ang sakong bitbit ko before I tried to push him off. But to my utter frustration, he won't even budge. Damn it!

"Liam! Anong ginagawa mo ngayon?? Balak mo na ba'kong sakalin ngayon just because I gladly returned those flowers to you??!"

When I shouted that, his cold glare intensified as he glared down at me. I could even feel his breath fanning against my face right now, much to my discomfort.

"Return? By slapping that fucking sack in my face! That's how you show your gladness by hitting me on my face??!!" asik na nito with sarcasms in his voice and a murderous glare in his eyes.

I tried to appear unaffected by his murderous look kahit na nagsisimula ng manginig ang mga tuhod ko ngayon.

I wasn't just used being shouted by anyone. Especially men...Dahil kahit na nakaligtas pa'ko noon nang muntikan na'kong magahasa, the trauma was still there... Hiding in me.  But he doesn't have to know that anyway.

Squaring up my shoulder, sinagot ko na ito as I tried to ignore our close proximity.

"Well, how could you expect me to return those flowers to you nicely kung kahit na ano pang sabihin ko sa'yo na tigilan mo na'ko sa mga kalokohan mo, hindi ka pa rin tumitigil! You keep on messing my life when I was just trying to have a peaceful life!"

"Huh! Messing your life??" he shook his head sabay bitaw nito sa'kin which I was thankful he did dahil makakahinga na rin ako ng maayos.

"And when did I ever mess with your life, woman? Pinadalhan lang kita ng maraming bulaklak kanina at hindi malaking problema so I don't deserve that harsh treatment from you!"

"Well you deserve that!"

He growled when I snapped that. But I won't just back down with this argument right now dahil lang hindi ako makahinga ng mabuti ngayon at dahil nanginginig pa ang mga tuhod ko.

"Hindi mo man lang ba inalam bago mo ko pinadalhan ng sangkatutak na bulaklak that I despised all of it?? Well, hindi 'di ba? Akala mo kasi lahat ng babae kikiligin agad kapag bibigyan mo lang sila ng mga letsing bulaklak!"

That made him frowned at me and faced me with his hands rested on his hips. He seems so frustrated while looking at me now.

"And what's the matter with those flowers then?? Bulaklak lang 'yon and every woman supposed to love flowers so ano ba talagang problema mo? Are you trying to play hard-to-get now para lang makuha mo ang pansin ko and so I'd go chase after you like an idiot??"

Just hearing that insult, hindi ko na napigilan ang kamay ko na masampal agad ito. My blood just instantly boiled up at this jerk!

"I am not playing hard to get bastard! Isaksak mo na sa baga mo yang atensyon mo because I don't want any of it! I was just trying to say na hindi ko gusto ang mga bulaklak because I am allergic to those darn things at hindi dahil gusto kong habulin mo'ko!" I shouted at him with so much want to just murder him now.
