Grim's Pov

Nakapamulsa akong naglalakad papasok ng Rvls, pagmamay-ari ito ng infamous Phantom Lord na hanggang ngayon ay hindi parin nagpapakita.

His identity was kept unknown for private matters and for his safety. Ang ideya ng lahat ay isa na itong matandang lalaki at beterano na sa larangan ng pagpapatakbo at pagpapalago ng negosyo in just a snap of his fingers.

"What can I do for you, sir?"

May lumapit sa aking isang babaeng empleyado na halos lumuwa ng ang kaluluwa dahil sa suot nitong damit. Her saggy excuse of a cleavage was showing too much. Hindi rin nagkalayo ang mukha nito sa kapal ng koloreteng nakapasak rito. Pouty lips covered with blood-red lipstick, arch-shaped eyebrows, a blushed cheeks that should put lightly but I think this girl forget to look herself in the mirror.

It's awful.

"Nah. I'm good." maang kong sagot at nagpatuloy patungong elevator.

Napansin kong napangiti ang babae at sinundan ako at sumakay rin ito ng elevator. I stood firm in the right side while she occupied the left side. We stood side by side.

She was holding a photocopied copies of some contracts.

Napasulyap ito sa akin at ngumiti labas ngipin. Napangiwi ako.

"Do you have a handkerchief with you, lady?"

"Huh? I do, why?"

"There's some lipstick smeared on your teeth."

Ang dating mapulang pisngi nito ay mas lalong pumula dahil sa hiya. She immediately looked away and hastily fished-out her napkin. Dahil sa pagmamadali nito, nahulog niya ang ibang contracts at nagkalat ito sa paanan namin.

Tss.

I dropped down and started picking up the papers when suddenly the elevator beep indicating we already arrived in the 12th floor of Rvls.

"Geez, you're late Gri--

Napaangat ako ng tingin. Chaise was looking at us, confused.

"What are you guys doing?"

Napabuntong-hininga ako. I don't know what happen in the past 10 second. But the lady was already under me and was clutching at me like a koala.

"This is just an accident, Chaise."

"Tss. Tell me about the things that I don't know Grim." Tumingin ito sa empleyado niya ng blanko. "And you.. who are you again?"

"Agatha, sir. My name's Agatha. The new hired HR officer."

Ngumiti ito. "Well, then, you are fired, Ms. Agatha."


Wild's Pov

Nakatayo ako ngayon sa ibabaw ng mataas na puno. I was watching Morgan from up here when Piper burst-out suddenly from nowhere.

Tss. I swear, this guy is a sore-eye. Naiirita ako sa closeness nila ni Morgan. Kung makaasta kasi ito parang kilala na nito si Morgan since birth?

Napasingkit ang mga mata ko ng umakbay ito kay Morgan. Wala ba siyang alam sa personal space? He's too close. Tumatawa ito dahil hindi nakuha ni Morgan ang tinuturo niya.

"I don't want to play this anymore. Ang hirap naman pala ng laro na 'yan." ani Morgan at itinapon ang itim na aparato kay Piper.

Natatawang ibinulsa naman ito ni Piper. "Hahaha. Hayaan mo. Matututo ka rin nun, prinsesa."

Prinsesa?

Don't make me laugh.

I smirked.

Morgan is my --

Muntik na akong mahulog nang magtagpo ang paningin namin ni Morgan. Shit. She saw me.
