Intelligence series 1: Mi hermosa amante

Kabanata 41

Belle's POV

Just how powerful this man is?! His plan is way too perfect that even MY FAMILY couldn't trace me. 

I've been with him for FOUR FUCKING DAYS!

"You really aren't afraid of death are you?" I sneered at him. 

"If it's for you then I guess I'm not," He said softly. 

I just rolled my eyes and continued eating my meal. I atleast have to keep myself alive duh.

"When are you going to release me from this torment, Lawrence" I said without looking at him.

"When we're married." 

I stopped slicing my steak and then glared at him. 

This fucking asshole is just smirking at me! He's unbelievable.

"I don't want to, how many times do I have to tell you that," 

We keep on repeating the same dialogues over and over again.For god sake! 

He said we're going to marry once we got here but it's been four days and we're still not married. Hanggang salita lang ata tung lalaking to.

It's not like I want to marry him but... argh nevermind. 

"Oh really, I know you have solutions as to how to escape me my love. You are smart, you know how to get away in this situation but you choose not to. What maybe is the reason?" I got taken aback by what he said . 

It's true. I can escape him but why didn't I?

"I-I don't know what you're talking about. Your security is tight and I can't get over it," I said trying to conceal the truth. 

"For the last three days, I let my PSG monitor the other side of the place. Keeping them away from the possible route you could escape on and I know you noticed I only have few men with me. It's on purpose baby," He let out soft chuckle while intently observing me.

He is right... why didn't I ran away when I got the chance. I don't understand myself. 

My mind is telling me to run away and stay away from this guy but... why.

I looked away and continued eating my food.  I am speechless.

Nakakabinging katahimikan ang bumalot sa amin pagkatapos ng sinabi niya. Nagmadali akong ubosin ang pagkain ko bago pa siya makapagsalita ulit.

Hindi ko rin naman siya masasagot. 

"I'm finsihed..." I quickly stand up from my seat leaving my plate.

The servants will get it. I didn't totally finish my meal, I just need to go to my room and be alone. 

There's a lot of questions in my head right now. 

Without giving him a glimpse, I went to my room fast. Narining kong tinawag niya ako pero hindi ko na siya nilingon pa. 

On my way to my room, his words start to pop in my head repeatedly. 

"You are smart, you know how to get away in this situation but you choose not to. What maybe is the reason?"

I have the chance to escape but why... why can't I leave him. 

I slam the door behind me and started to walk slowly in my bed. 

I started pulling my hair roughly because right now... I'm having trouble understanding myself. 

There's a lot of Whys in my head. I want it out.  

Why can't I leave him... Why I didn't escape when I had the chance.
