The Empire Series 5: Vanna Lei Shrewd

Chapter 36: Tayo

Warning: Short Update. Short but sweet. Charot!

Vanna Lei was dressing her wounds when the door swung open. Nasa loob siya ng pentsuite sa isa nilang hotel. Hindi na siya nagtaka nang pumasok si Klein Rich. He had security passes. Hindi naman niya iyon tinanggal kahit noong mga panahong nagagalit siya sa binata.

Ibinaba nito ang brown paper bag sa center table at tumabi ng upo sa couch.

"Ako na," inagaw nito ang bulak na hawak niya at nilagyan ng wound ointment ang sugat niya sa binti. Her leg is outstretched. Nakapatong ang isa niyang paa sa center table.

She wasn't able to react. Kanina pa siya hindi maka-react nang ihatid siya nito sa pentsuite. Ayaw niya kasing umuwi ng bahay dahil mag-aalala ang ina niya kapag nakita ang mga sugat niya sa katawan. She had few bruises and scrapes on the arms and face. Sa hita ang may malaking sugat dahil naipit noong tumilapon pabaliktad ang kotse.

Kanina ngang inihatid siya nito at sinabihang magbihis na para magamot ang sugat niya ay hindi rin siya nakapagsalita at pumasok na lamang ng bathroom. She thought he already left. Wala na kasi ito nang lumabas siya sa lounge area.

She watched as he slowly swiped the ointment. Hinihihipan nito ang sugat habang pinapahiran ng marahan. She had to inhale deeply to stop her heart from swooning.

"Why are you smiling?" salubong ang kilay nitong tanong nang umangat ang tingin sa kanya. Nagulat pa siya. Her heart rumbled as she crammed for words.

"Hinihihipan mo kasi, hindi naman ako bata," she reasoned out.

Napailing naman ito bago ibinalik ang tingin sa sugat niya at ipinagpatuloy ang ginagawa.

"Huwag ka na ulit ngingiti ng gano'n," sambit nito habang ipinapahid ang gamot sa sugat niya.

Sa halip na tumigil ay mas lalo naman siyang napangiti. She always feel great being around Cloud. She felt like she's home. Sobrang gaan sa pakiramdam.

Bumilis na naman ang tibok ng puso niya nang tumingin ito sa kanya. Huling-huli kasi nito ang pagngiti niya.

"You're really stubborn," he muttered with a sigh. She wasn't able to react when he shoved the cotton ball on the table and reached for her nape.

He kissed her quickly on the lips and her eyes automatically shut. His scorching lips touching hers felt like heaven. It lingered for seconds.

She was about to open her mouth to welcome him when he suddenly stopped.

She almost let out a grunt when she opened her eyes. Klein was staring at her. Nakahawak pa rin ang kamay nito sa batok niya.

"I hate your brown eyes," he whispered. She could smell his minty breath. Napalunok siya. She felt her cheeks burning when he stared at her lips.

"I hate your lips more," he added with a heavy breathing.

"I can't resist them," sambit nito bago siya muling kinabig para halikan.

Her heartbeats raced as her hands automatically clasped his nape and welcomed his lips. He gently bit her lower lip causing her head to spin in sensations. As his tongue searched inside her mouth, she also did the same on his. Matagal, mapusok, nakaliliyo. He'd only stop a second to give her time to breath. Pagkatapos noon ay muli nitong hinuhuli ang labi niya. Their tongues fought in a battle only them could interpret. He kept nibbling and swirling his tongue causing her to move sideways.

Hindi pa sana sila titigil kung hindi lang nasagi ni Klein ang paa niyang may sugat. Napaigik siya nang maramdamang namanhid ang paa niyang nakapatong sa center table. Gano'n ba sila katagal naghalikan para mamanhid ang paa niya?
