The Governor (Del Franco #1)

Kabanata II

Habit

Lagaslas ng tubig na nagmumula sa shower ang bumabasag sa katahimikan sa pagitan ni Yvanna at Nikolas. They are actually waiting for this moment to happen again. Iyong silang dalawa lang at malayang nagagawa ang gusto nilang gawin. Ilang beses silang sumubok na magkita pero hindi naman pumapabor ang pagkakataon para sa kanilang dalawa.

"I miss you..." Sumilay ang ngiti sa mukha ni Nikolas habang nakatitig sa kanya. They are both naked while under the shower. Nakaangla ang mga braso ni Yvanna sa leeg ng binata habang pinagmamasdan niya ito. She's always excited to see him. Walang araw na lumipas na hindi niya naisip si Nikolas.

"Why we have to hide, Nikolas? Bawal ba tayong magmahalan sa harap ng maraming tao?" Yvanna asked while playing his wet hair. He's already twenty four and she's twenty three, pero para pa rin silang mga bata na hindi pwedeng makipaglaro sa iba.

They had to go in other place just to see each other. Dahil lahat ng galaw ni Nikolas ay pinapanood ng maraming mga mata. People are expecting him to be the next Governor of their province someday. Teenager pa lamang si Nikolas ay lagi na siyang nakadikit sa kanyang ama. His father, Leonardo Del Franco, exposed him early in the world of politics.

"You know my father won't like this if he finds out about us. He will probably kill us if he does, Yvanna..." Umiwas ng tingin ang dalaga at pilit na iniintindi ang sitwasyon.

Diyos ba ang ama niya para kontrolin ang sarili niyang buhay? She asked herself.

She loves him so much. Ngayon lamang siya nakaramdam ng ganito sa isang lalaki. He's a big mystery and she wants to solve him.

When they first met, she was not interested about him. She knew Nikolas since she was in grade school. Madalas na niya itong makita sa lokal na telebisyon, dyaryo, at magazine noon pa man. His family, Del Franco, is a powerful clan in Vigo Del Mar. Walang nangahas na bumangga sa kanilang pamilya dahil sa koneksyon na mayroon sila sa Gobyerno ng Pilipinas at dahil na rin sa kanilang reputasyon at yaman.

Halos pamilya nila ang bumubuhay sa mga lokal ng Vigo Del Mar dahil sa mga businesses na pinatayo nila sa kanilang probinsya. They own big establishments, real estate properties, private beaches and farms.

Halos lahat ng kinabubuhay ng mga mamamayan ng Vigo Del Mar ay sila ang nagpapatakbo. Kaya sino ang hindi susunod sa kanila?

Money always works.

"I love you, Nikolas..." she whispered. Hindi naman nag-atubili pa ang binata at agad na sinakop ang kanyang mga labi. His strong arms snaked around her small waist and deepened the kiss. His lips tasted like a menthol mixed with an alcohol they drank earlier.

"Akin ka lang..." he replied between his kisses. Yvanna bit her lower lip when Nikolas' lips went down to her neck. He was slowly giving her little kisses and she felt so damn good. Her mouth formed a big O when he claimed her exposed nipple.

"Damn, I really fucking miss you, Yvanna..." he said and slowly massaged her other breast.

The room filled with her moans and sounds of his kisses. Lalo pang nabaliw si Yvanna nang bumaba ang kamay ng binata sa kanyang pagkababae.

"What are you doing to—oh!" She closed her eyes when he inserted two fingers in her womanhood.

"Damn..." She almost lost her breath while Nikolas doing something miracle down to her core. Pakiramdam niya ay tumatakbo siya nang mabilis dahil sa bilis ng tibok ng kanyang puso.

She groaned when Nikolas stopped what he was doing. Tinitigan siya ng binata at ngumiti. "I own you." Those were just three words but it made her happy. His words were full of promises and hopes. Umaasa si Yvanna na magkakaroon ng lakas ang binata na ipagtapat sa lahat na siya ang babaeng mahal nito.
