I agreed to my old man and Sebastian Zaragosa's fucking agreement.

Its a fucking twenty million dollars at wala akong ganoong halaga idagdag pa iyong twenty million pesos para kay Mayor. Kung papayag ako ay iyong kay Mayor na lang ang problema--na ginawa ko na nga.

Its just a marriage in papers. No harm.

Kahit simpleng 'thank you' anak ay wala akong natanggap kay Henaro. Pch.

Gusto ng matandang Zaragosa ng apo sa tuhod pero hindi na problema iyon. Madali ng magdahilan. We can always say na hindi kami makabuo though I had no plan of sleeping with my soon to be husband. Well,maybe maliban kung matukso ako.

Theodore is handsome. A happy go lucky type.

Mabuti at siya ang ipinagkasundo sa akin sa halip na si Matheo. Matheo had this daredevil type of handsomeness but hell,there's something about him that I don't like.

Maybe his guts? Maybe his rugged look? A not naliligo look? Or maybe his mahabang hair na ang untidy tingnan?

Ang gusto ni Sebastian ay kilalanin namin ni Theodore ang isa't-isa. Maybe I will tell him then what my rules.

Nagpunta ako sa Rancho Zaragosa dala si Light. Sabi ni Theodore ay mangangabayo kaming dalawa. Hinamon ko siya ng horse race and he gladly obliged.

I ride Light expertly. Theodore will sure of no win against me.

Franz and I were playing horse racing and equestrian back in US.

My Auntie Chloe's husband--my mother's sister--had this small ranch in Colorado which I often visit. Close ako sa Auntie Chloe ko. She is the mother that I never had. Sa kanila ako unang pumunta noong umalis ako sa Pilipinas noong fifteen years old ako. Pinag-aral ako ni Auntie Chloe hanggang sa matapos ko ang highschool. After highschool eh nag-stay ako sa ranch at nag-alaga ng mga kabayo. I decided to live on my own noong mag-seventeen ako. Auntie cry hard when I tell her that but my decision is final. I want to stand on my own para may mapatunayan ako kay Henaro. I left Colorado and try my luck in Texas. That's when I met Kat. She saved me from the goons at the alley of Texas. She fought merciless. She is the most bloodthirsty woman I ever met. She amazed the hell out of me. Naisip ko na kauna-unahan kong kailangang matutunan ay ang self defence kung gusto kong mabuhay mag-isa. Villains were roaming around the world and I won't be just a prey that they would strike anytime. The rest were history..

Now,I am a Marine SEAL and I am good at everything. Horse racing is just a piece of cake.

I arrived at the ranch in a blist. Exactly six o'clock in the morning. Para daw hindi pa mainit ang pag-iikot namin sa rancho.

Itinali ko muna si Light doon sa malapit sa kwadra. I head my way to the stable.

"So you really agree in marrying my brother?"

Natigil ako pagpasok sa kwadra when a familiar husky voice spoke.

Matheo. He looks at me with his brooding eyes. I almost rolled my eyes at his question.

"Why wouldn't I? Your lolo will pay our debt."I smirked at him.

"You are so blatant woman."

He walked his way near me. Mas matangkad siya sa akin. Niyuko niya ako kaya halos magkalapit ang mukha namin. Hindi naman ako na-shake.

"I don't want you to be my sister-in-law."he emphasized the words.

Lalo akong napa-smirk.

"Who cares? Hindi ikaw ang pakakasalan ko kaya wala akong care kahit pa umusok iyang ilong mo sa galit."bored kong wika.

Nakita ko kung paano mag-igting ang panga niya na ikinaaaliw ko lang.

"Hey Chey.."napalingon kami sa nagsalita.

Si Theodore. Galing siya sa mansyon. I thought nasa loob na siya ng stable.

"I woke up late. Kanina ka pa ba?"

"Nah,I just arrived ng ilang minutes lang."

Bumaling ang tingin ni Theodore kay Matheo na may blank expression.

"Anong ginagawa mo dito Matheo?"

"Pinakain ko iyong mga kabayo."

"Ganun ba. Maiwan ka na namin,mangangabayo kami nitong mapapangasawa ko."masiglang wika ni Theodore.

Pumasok na siya sa loob ng stable. Hinila ko ang damit ni Matheo para mapalapit siya sa akin na ikinagulat niya. Inilapit ko ang mukha ko sa tenga niya.

"Ayoko ding maging brother-in-law ka."bulong ko sa kanya.

Binitawan ko ang damit niya at tinapik siya sa balikat. I left him dumbfounded.

I cursed under my breathe. Hindi ko pa din makalimutan ang pag-uusap namin ni Cheyenna sa kwadra kanina. Sabagay ay hindi naman talaga kalimot-limot ang tatlong engkwentro na nakausap ko siya.

She is really different from the woman I had met. Woman who throw their self willingly at my feet.

Doon na nga lang sa gubat..I was amazed of how she shot the baboy ramo. Gumagalaw iyong subject pero natamaan niya. Well,siguro tyamba?

She is so blatant too.. Walang filter ang bibig and I dislike that.

Suddenly I remember how hot her breathe is in my ears. She had a bedroom voice too. And,I saw how sexy she sway her hips.

Damn it! She's still after our money.

I won't let her marry my brother. I won't let that happen.
