Forcedly Yours [R-18]

Chapter 23

Bahagyang natigilan siya nang makita ako.

"I thought you were asleep already," sabi niya at umupo sa kabilang dulo ng kama.

He was topless and only wearing a white cotton shorts. Nag-init ang mukha ko nang napatingin ako sa dibdib at abs niya.

"Shit," he muttered when he saw my face. "I can wear a shirt if you're uncomfortable," he offered.

I bit my cheek. "Leyton, we need to talk about...about what happened," pagdederecho ko.

He gritted his jaw. "Okay, but let me start by telling you I'm not letting you go," agad na sabi niya.

My eyes widen slightly. Hindi na ako dapat magulat. It's just him being him. I guess, hindi ko lang inexpect na 'yon agad ang sasabihin niya.

And it felt...good. I even felt relieved.

"Well, I'm... I'm not letting you go, too." pag amin ko.

It was his turn to look shocked. He was clearly not expecting the words from me. He opened his mouth to say something but I raised my palm to stop him.

"You went to Japan without me. Why?" I asked as if it was the most important thing to ask.

And to me, it was. I already accepted what had happened in the hospital. Why it happened. But I didn't understand why he left for Japan without me.

"I guess I didn't know you still wanted to go," he answered as he exhaled a huge breath. He gave me a tortured look. "I didn't imagine you'd still want to go after what happened."

I nodded and looked back outside the window.

I heard him walk to my side and I watched as he stood against the window, briefly looking at the city lights outside and at me.

"I'm so fucking sorry for how I reacted, Kitten. I should have trusted you but I couldn't think when I saw you looking like a fucking wet dream and alone in that small room with him. I wanted to fucking kill him and I almost did," he exhaled exasperatingly.

"It was my fault too for not telling you about the flowers and about him," mahinang sabi ko.

He shook his head. "I knew about it," hindi makapaniwalang napatingin ako sa kanya. "Trust me when I say I know everything about you, wife. I was just waiting for you to tell me about it and things were so good between us and I guess I wanted it to stay that way."

"It's so unlike you not to confront me, though." Pagpoint out ko at yon ang totoo.

"Well, I'm still the possessive asshole that I've always been but it's difficult to think about the possibility of you with him when I've been eating your pussy multiple times a day," I blushed as I felt myself feel hot, remembering those times.

His eyes darkened as he watched my face. "As I said, I was waiting for you to tell me."

"I'm sorry," sagot ko at napayuko sa paa ko. "I didn't mean to hide that from you," sinulyapan ko siya bago namumulang umiwa ng tingin. "I guess...I guess you were right. I was too caught up and distracted by how everything was between us. I never even thought about him if I'm to be honest."

I looked at the ceiling as the words flowed out of my mouth. "I guess it hurt that you didn't even pause to let me explain or to give me the benefit of the doubt," I bit my lip before releasing it. I looked back at his face. "But I understand why you did it. I...forgive you for that."

"Well, you shouldn't," he muttered in an angry tone. "You should hate me for hurting you that way."

"But I do. I forgive you," sagot ko. I blinked my eyes as I felt the emotions slammed through me. "I...I also missed you the past week," pag amin ko.
