The Castle of Callum (COMPLETED)

10 The offer

George POV

"What is it now?! Speak!" Iritang anas ng lalaki. Halatang nasasagad ko na ang kakaunti nyang pasensya sa paraan ng pagsasalita nya.

"Ah sir, what if I work for you as your secretary for free? I just want you to clear my brother. You can tell them that he really didnt rob your bank. A good lawyer can make that happen. Inosente ang kapatid ko and the truth will set him free. Please Sir I'll pay you with work." Aniko sa lalaki. Medyo naaninaw ko ang pagtaas ng gilid ng labi nya.

"Miss, do you think I cant afford a secretary? I can pay anyone any price I want. I can even pay someone to clear you off my sight. Do you think I need you?!" Mapang uyam na anas ng lalaki na nagpalumo sa pag asa ko.

This is hopeless. This guy will never help me! I'm just wasting my time and energy.

"I'm sorry to interrupt you sir. I would go now. Thank you for your time." Mahina at walang gana kong paalam sa lalaki. Tumalikod na ako ng makarinig ako ng mahina at sunod sunod na mura.

Aalis na nga ako eh! Kung makapagmura naman tong diablong to!

Hindi ko na iyon pinansin at humakbang na palayo ng biglang nagsalita muli ang lalaki.

"I will help you if you add yourself to the bargain." Anito na ikinaikot kong muli sa lalaki.

"Pardon sir?" Ani ko sa lalaki. Nakita ko syang humalukipkip at muling nanitig. Ng di ko na matagalan ang pagtitig nya ay napayuko ako.

"I will consider helping you if you include yourself to the bargain. You will be my secretary and I can have you anytime I want." Anitong muli na ikinakunot ng noo ko. And my heart kept pounding like crazy as I try to understand what he is trying to say.

Is he offering me to be... is he saying... that cant be!

"Sir, can you be more specific." Aniko habang matalim na nakatitig sa lalaki. Gusto kong linawin nya.

Hindi pwedeng gusto nya kong...

"Your kind always have a febble mind. Sèx Miss Pitonghari. I want sèx from you! Are you getting it now or do you want me to demostrate it?" Anito sa kaparehong tono kung paano nya ako itaboy. Napasinghap ako at nanlaki ang mata ko sa sinabi nya. Pero nanlisik din iyon at kung pwede lang makapatay ang titig ko bubulagta na ang binata sa kinatatayuan nya.

"How dare you Mister Mickelroy! I will not degrade myself and have sèx with your kind! A person who cares nothing but himself! A selfish, egostistic and twisted person! What am I even thinking asking you for help when you cant even see that you yourself need help!" Malakas kong sigaw pero halos mabingi ako ng muling tumawa ng nakakatakot ang lalaki. He was even holding his stomach as if it was a good laugh on his part. Then when his laugh died down he just looked at me with too much seriousness I felt concious with the way I am breathing heavily with so much anger directed at him.

"The offer still stands. But if you dont want it, stay away from my property because next time I see you here... I'll shoot you without hesitation. Goodbye Miss SevenKings." Anito sabay talikod muli sa akin habang ako naman ay nagngingitngit sa galit. At nagmartsa palabas ng gubat nya at palabas ng kastilyo nya. Galit na galit at gigil na gigil sa lalaki.

Hinding hindi na ako babalik sa bwisit na kastilyong ito!

Then I realized paano na ang pangako ko kay Gian?!

Ano na ang gagawin ko?!

Callum POV

I dont know what came over me to offer that girl such proposition. I wanted to punch myself as soon as I said it.

What the hell am I thinking?!

The girl's direct refusal of me made a little stabbing pain to my stoned cold heart, just piercing through my iced walls I build around it long time ago. The girl is starting to make me feel something I buried long ago, the feeling of having feelings. From the start she awakened my curiosity, then my mànhood, then my mind and now my heart or maybe just my ego?!

Fvck! I dont even remember how to be human and now everytime the girl is near me I am starting to feel stuff that I dont want to feel. But I cant help myself everytime she looks at me. The monitor in my room didnt gave her justice. Although she's far, my eyes seems to zoom in on her. She is far more beautiful in person. Her hair softly dancing with the wind, it makes me wanna smell and hold it. Her skin almost shines as the light of the sun kissed it making her look ethereal. Her upturned nose that crinkles in disgust at me, I somehow like it, her confidence as she faced me somehow threw me off. She looks frightened but fighting whatever she is feeling and it somehow amazed me.

The girl definitely have guts.

Then my mind wander at what she said. She needs help, or her brother needs help. I shook my head at frustration.

Since when did they turn for me for help?! That girl is looking at the wrong places.

Then what she said hit something in me.

Why is she asking help from me when I cant even help myself?! Her words hit a nerve.
