SIMOUN'S POV
THE second she stepped out of her room, I had to scrape my jaw off the floor. She gave me that cute little twirl of hers, and I took my time drinking her in. The red hees. The red jewelry. The red dress that had been practically rolled down her thick curves. She looked stunning in her outfit. The red contrasted her blonde hair and her bubblegum-pink lips nicely, but I took in the change in her face. That slim nose was back, and her brow looked a little more prominent. Kumbinsido na ako ngayon na make up lang ang ginagamit niya para ibahin ang kanyang itsura sa publiko at hangang-hanga ako kung paano niya ito nagagawa. Gayunpaman, sobrang ganda niya. She stood tall with her head held high and slipped her arm effortlessly into mine.
But of course she looked perfect. Perpekto siya para sa akin. At ngayon alam ko na iyon at siguro matagal ko nang alam mula nang nasa Tokyo pa kami pero itinanggi ko. Onel sure as hell did. Kay Amber ko lang nakikita ang lahat ng bagay na gusto ko sa isang babae, kahit na hindi ko pa iyon narerealise. Sinubukan kong mabuhay ng wala siya sa loob nang dalawang buwan. Tried to run my life and return back to the schedule I knew. But I couldn’t. An existence without her almost swallowed me whole. And as I walked with her arm in arm down to the conference dinner that was being catered in, I knew I had to find a way to prolong this.
To keep her at my side.
Kailangang makaisip ako ng paraan para alisin ang itinayo niyang harang sa kaniya. Kailangan kong malaman kung ano ba ang tinatago niya. Basta ang alam ko, hindi rin Amber ang totoo niyang pangalan. But something about Amber seemed more genuine than “Victoria.” If that was the case, I needed to know why she was pretending to be someone else. May napasukan ba siyang gulo? Pakiramdam ba niya makakayanan niyang magtago buong buhay niya?
Isa ba siyang kriminal na hinahabol ng batas? Kailangan kong malaman ang sekreto niya bago ako mas mahulog pa sa kaniya.
“You haven’t said anything since we left my room, Mr. Simoun.”
“Don’t mind me. I’m simply focused on the dessert that comes after this brief dinner,” I said.
“Then you’ll really enjoy what I have underneath all this for you.”
My cock jumped at the thought.
I walked us into the ballroom, and the smells of food made my stomach grumble. I made my way over to a couple of seats at the end of one of the tables and pulled out Victoria’s seat for her. She settled into it with a grace that solidified who she was to me. Only one woman on this planet could pull off the type of grace and appeal she had.
“So, what is the purpose of this dinner?” tanong ni Victoria.
“To stroke the egos of those who set it up and participated,” I said.
“So, should I be stroking a part of you?”
Kumindat sa akin pagkatapos ay naramdaman ko ang kamay niyang gumagapang papunta sa hita ko.
“What you need to be doing is behaving, Miss Victoria. You’re going to get us both in trouble.”
“I suggest we stick to a nice, light salad. Once we work up a bigger appetite, we could go out for something else.”
“Or order something in.”
“We could eat it in bed,” she said.
“Or I could eat it off you.”
“You naughty boy,” pabulong na sabi niya.
“I’m not the one who started it.”
However, her suggestion was a good one. No main course. Just some water, maybe a glass of wine, and a nice crisp salad. It was a quick eat, and one that wouldn’t slide me into a desperate want to sleep with her beautiful body nestled next to me. We placed our orders before the waiter went to get us a couple of glasses of red wine, but the moment was about to be prolonged more than I wished.
