FORBIDDEN LOVE SERIES: CROSSING THE LINE

FOUR

"Ava?!" Ulit pa niya. Agaran ang pagtulak niya sa babae. She landed on her butt.

"Baby!" Alam kong nasaktan yong babae. I ignored her though. She was calling him with that annoying endearment again!

Ares was caressing the back of his head, where I just hit him. Agaran ang pagtaas niya sa kaniyang pantalon at pagsara ng kaniyang zipper.

I crossed my arms in my chest and looked at him. I know he saw anger in them. I was only hiding the true emotion in my eyes.

"Fix yourself" itinuro ko ang kaniyang zipper na bahagya pang nakabukas.

I went to the girl who was already looking at me angrily. Well, I'm more mad! Angrier than her. "I'm his fiancé. You know who he is, right? You also know his grandfather, the ruthless head of Herrera? This thing will going to get to him and you have to face consequences"

I saw her flinched, got intimidated in my aura. I noticed Ares looking at me, slightly shaking his head but I could still see his proud smirk as if he was enjoying this scene.

I walked towards the girl. "You want me to announce how did you just blow job my fiancé? You don't want that to happen,right?"

She stepped backward while I moved more towards her. "And why would I be afraid o-of you?!"

"You are, you should" I walked more towards her, until I was in front of her, towering her.

"I—"

"That's enough. Let's go, baby" tumungo si Ares sa aking tabi at inakbayan ako. Naramdaman ko pa ang paghaplos niya sa aking balikat na akala mo pinakakalma ako.

"I'm going to remember your face. Not to mention that we have the same name" I looked at her with icy stare, intimidating her more.

"My name is no—"

"Okay, okay, we should really go, baby" hinila na niya paalis doon.

I only glared at the girl and let him pull me over the stair and rode the elevator.

Inalis ko ang pagkakaakbay niya sa akin. "You just had sex with random girl. I don't like you touching me"

Nagtaas siya ng magkabilang kamay at sumandal sa elevator pagkatapos. Pinindot ko ang ground floor at lumayo ng bahagya sa kaniya. Pinagkrus ko ang aking kamay sa aking dibdib.

Muling nanumbalik ang paghigpit ng kung ano sa aking puso. I remembered how he looked earlier. He was in so much pleasure. I've seen him wake up in bed with different women. I've seen him play with them as if they are disposable and I am too afraid to end up like them.

I remembered what my uncle Kade said to me.

"They are above us, Ava. Tandaan mo yan. Hinding-hindi babagay ang katulad natin sa kanila. Ang mayaman ay para lang sa mayaman. Tingnan  mo nalang si sir Duke, nagpakasal siya kay ma'am Patricia na anak mayaman din. Hindi sila bababa sa level na'tin kaya isa lang ang pakiusap ko, huwag na huwag kang mahuhulog kahit sino man sa kanila"

Unang araw ko pa lamang sa lugar na ito. May linya nang inilagay sa pagitan namin. I should avoid that line, never even thing of crossing it. Dahil baka sa isang iglap, mawala lahat sa akin.

Pinilit kong sanayin ang sarili ko na itago ang totoong nararamdaman sa malamig at kontroladong ekspresyon.

"Don't call me that again" seryoso kong paalala sa kaniya habang pinanonood ang pagbaba ng numero sa itaas.

"You were the one who called me as your fiancé. Ikaw nalang ba lagi ang masusunod?"

Bumaling ako sa kaniya. "You know that you're the one I should follow, Ares. And I just called you my fiancé earlier because I had to, to make her back off"
