Sultry Shanti

12 The threat

SHANTI POV

I felt a warm thing enveloped me in my sleep. I moved my face to feel more of that heat and it smelled good. Very comforting and the heat fanning my forehead smells good too. It seems familiar but at the same time it felt foreign to my body. I heard a small groan when I move much more closer to the heat. It freezes me up when I realized that it's a human body I'm burrowing myself into. I quickly opened my eyes to find myself embracing and breathing in a man's neck.

What the hell!

I moved away so fast that I felt my head spinned then it ached. I saw him open his dreamy eyes and stared at me. I closed my eyes because for one, my head hurts and two, I don't want to see him.

Why is it that I have to deal with him every fvcking morning with a hang over? It's like a double punishment!

I bowed and massaged my head and when I finally opened my eyes it immediately widened when I saw myself wearing only my underwear. I automatically pulled the sheet over my exposed skin. I can feel my cheeks burning.

"What are you doing here?!" Inis na turan ko sa kanya. Naramdaman ko ang pagtayo niya kaya nag-angat na ako ng tingin. Once again I saw his round butt covered only with a fitted boxer. I followed how his back and leg muscles moved as he retrieved his pants on the floor and wore them. He moves so sexy as hell. I dipped my eyes when he finally turned to face me. I don't know if he catched me watching him. That would be embarassing.

"I don't like my fiancée catching her death, just because she is too drunk to even walk." Anito habang isinusuot ang t-shirt niya na hindi ko mapigilang mapatingin muli sa abs at biceps nito. He is indeed sexy and moves so manly.

"Heed my warning fiancée. Stop whoring yourself to every dick who will have you! You will soon be my wife so I expect you to act like one. I expect respect and faithfulness from you. And if ever I saw you too drunk to even walk again, I guarantee you, you won't be able to walk straight for a whole week. And your head is not the only part you will feel aching. I can be a little rough when enraged." Madiin at makahugang sabi nito habang tumingin sa ibabang bahagi ko na natatakpan ng kumot. Lalo ko tuloy nahigpitan ang hawak ko sa kumot at nanlalaki ang mata ko sa bulgar ng salita niya.

"What?! Are threatening to rape me Montalban?!" Gigil na sigaw ko sa kanya.

"Rape!?" Anito sabay tawa ng malakas, iyong nakakalokong tawa na lalo pang ikinangitngit ng kalooban ko. Pero mas gumwapo siya kapag tumatawa, I have to admit.

"You will be my wife, Shanti. Don't make me laugh with your notions of rape." Anito na lalong nagpakaba ng dibdib ko.

Wag niyang sabihing...

"Yes, Montalban, I will be your wife, but only in papers! I have no intention of sleeping with you, asshole!" Paglilinaw ko habang nagmamadaling tumayo at pinapaikot ang kumot sa halos hubad ko ng katawan. Nakita ko ang pagdidilim ng mukha ni Xavier. Nag- igtingan ang kanyang panga at wala yatang matinong babae na hindi matatakot sa itsura niyang iyon.

"Then don't fvckng make me! No more drinking yourself to death, Shanti. And stop whoring around!" Napasinghap ako sa talim ng pagkakasabi niyang iyon. Mukha namang nakikita niya ang takot sa mga mata ko ng bigla siyang huminahon at bumuntong-hinings.

"You are expected at dinner in Dad's house. 6pm." Anito at tumalikod na sa akin, deretso siyang lumabas ng bahay nang hindi man lang ako nilingon.

He dares threatened me?! Fvck you asshole! I'll die first before I let you touch me!
