Chapter Sixteen
KILLIAN
The sun started to go down, its rays piercing through the trees, as I gave one last sweep of the forest, gathering the items that Ilya had disposed of during the chase. I wanted to ensure that she hadn't left anything behind that could cause harm or reveal her presence.
Habang naglalakad at hawak-hawak ang mga gamit, napatigil ako roon sa kung saan kami naghalikan. Yung bakas ng aming mga katawan ay nanatili roon sa lupa, at napailing nalang ako.
I almost lost my control.
I almost took her right there and then. The way her lips taste sweet and her tongue tangles with mine. Her moans as I touched her skin and how she grinds her pussy on my co—I should stop thinking about it or I'll get hard again.
Napailing nalang ako muli at pinulot yung kanyang baril sa gilid, at pumunta roon sa puntod na kanyang ginawa. May you have not had hands in hell, Gino.
Hindi ko alam ang rason kung bakit pinatay ni Ilya si Gino, was he one of her best friend's abusers? Is she avenging her death? Isa pang nakapagtataka ay kung paano niya nalaman na isa akong serial killer, at paano rin niya natagpuan itong hide out ko. Did she follow me last night? If she did, she is hella good. Kasi ni isang kutob wala man lang akong naramdaman na may nakamasid sa akin.
I smirked. If I thought she had already exceeded my expectations, here she was, revealing yet another layer of her enigmatic self. The chase had brought us together, but it was the mystery and complexity of her character that continued to intrigue and captivate me.
As I secured the house and the property, umalis na ako bago pa magsimulang dumilim. Pagkarating ko sa bahay, I pulled off the live footage of the property. Sabi niya na meron akong pagmamay-ari niya.
And it is Darren Teng. Who is still breathing despite loosing blood by the hour. May nakapag-trigger ba kay Ilya kagabi kaya gusto niya kunin si Darren?
After showering again—and jerking off with Ilya on my mind, I went out my bathroom to dress. Bumaba ako para tumambay sa pool area at kinuha yung aking laptop to catch up on some business.
"Calliope," I say in greeting, as I lounge on a chaise by the pool.
"Killian. Have you heard about the guys in Batangas? The Refinery Manager says that there might be a problem with the production for October." Bungad niya agad sa akin.
"Yeah. I just saw the e-mail," I said as I check the content of the problem on my computer. "I'll talk to Gian about that."
"Okay, update me the deets please."
