Seduced by the Mafia

Chapter 2: Intruder

Penelope's POV

My throbbing head was the first thing I felt early in the morning. Goodness, every inch of my body felt sore, and my back hurts so much. Napaungol ako ng mahina, bakit parang ang sikip ng pakiramdam ko parang hindi ako makahinga, parang may kung anong mabigat ang nakadagan sa'kin. I looked down to see strong, veiny arms laying comfortably on my abdomen. Oh right- I turned my head sideways only to be welcomed by his peacefully asleep face, nakaharap ang ulo niya sa akin, and he looked more human now. Bakit ano ba siya kagabi? -Sex God, I mentally facepalmed myself with the thoughts running through my head.

I took the chance to check every detail of his face without getting deadly yet seductive stares from him, to his tousled dark hair cascading down his eyes and his long lashes throwing shadows over his cheeks. I've been wondering this whole time about his facial routine by the way his face looked flawless. And his lips, it's agape and tender; it looks so inviting-PENELOPE, YOU'RE ALREADY SOBER, GET UP!

Maingat kong inalis ang pagkakadantay ng kamay niya sa akin at dahan-dahang umalis sa kama. Mabilisan akong nagbihis bago ayusin ang sarili ko at sinulyapan siya sa huling beses at saka tahimik na lumabas sa kwartong iyon. Pagkasara ko ng pinto, sinigurado kong kung ano man ang nangyari sa silid na iyon ay mananatili na lamang doon. I hope to never cross paths with him again. It was only a one-night stand, charged to experience, and an additional history to my sexcapade.

I nodded my head as I tried hailing a taxi when suddenly a familiar car stopped in front of me. Wow? The timing was great. I hurriedly opened the door and sat myself comfortably on the passenger seat. Stella looked as haggard as me, she obviously had a great night too.

"Please, this will be the last time we're hanging out in this club."

I muttered, checking my face in the mirror when she glanced at me and snickered.

"Bes! I know you had a great night. I only saw his back while he was carrying you going upstairs, but I just know he's a catch!"

She exclaimed excitedly, she doesn't sound exhausted like how she looks. I rolled my eyes at her and crossed my arms against my chest. My body is aching everywhere. I know I enjoyed it last night, but the after-effects are a no-no.

"Well yeah, but it's not like we're going somewhere further than a one-night stand. I prefer not crossing paths with him again."

I suddenly feel embarrassed about how I acted like a total slut last night. I felt like my dignity and human decency were left at home when I went to that club. How did I manage to make myself look like a whore in front of a stranger? How loud I was last night? How come I enjoyed it so much? How can someone be that hot? That should be illegal.

"Why not!? We can't remove that possibility."

She shrugged as she turned right and went to the drive-thru at a fast-food restaurant. Is she being serious? Our heads are throbbing from a hangover, not to mention my sore entire being, and she wanted fast food first thing in the morning?

"What do you mean? I don't want to cross paths with him again. One, I don't have the face to face him, second, he looked somewhat dangerous. I don't know, his aura doesn't sit right with me. He looks like trouble."

I explained while she nodded her head to me nonchalantly. She doesn't care much about what I'm saying here, does she?

"Anyway, do you want the same order as me?"

She raised her brow at me, and I gave her a nod.

"You know, Pen, what matters most is you enjoyed last night. Whether you meet him again or not depends on fate."
