Do you believe in Stockholm Syndrome? Or have you ever fall in love to someone who kidnap you?
In my case, it's inevitable. Zeno Montenegro is crazily handsome, powerful and good in bed. Not to mention, he's a psycho. That's how I describe him.
Nakaka turn-off? Surprisingly, that's what makes him hotter.
As soon as we met, alam ko nang he has important role in my life. At hindi ako nagkamali.
My messed up life became even messier. He knew damn well that he has effect on me and he's using that to control me.
Dreymont is very fine but Zeno is on another level. I cannot disseminate the right words for him.
I don't know where did it start. Was it the first time we met?
"D-Daddy...." I uttered.
Hindi ako makatingin ng ayos kay Tita Marinela who is sitting beside him. It's been weeks or month(?) since nagkausap kaming dalawa. At hindi pa naging maganda ang huli naming pagkikita.
"Okay ka na ba, hija?" Nag-aalalang tanong ni daddy sa akin.
Tumango lang ako bilang sagot.
Hindi ko alam na ngayon na pala darating ang kinatatakutan ko.
Ang makaharap ang mga magulang ni Zeno. Parang nanliit ako sa sarili ko. Nawala saglit sa isip ko na galing siya sa makapangyarihan na pamilya.
"Come. Sit beside us, hija. I'm glad you're okay." Maamong saad ng first lady.
She looked soft and really elegant. Napakaamo ng mukha nito. Kahawig niya si Zeno pero ang ugali ng anak ay katulad sa Presidente.
"Thank you po for the sympathy."
Hinanap ng mga mata ko si Mommy. Where is she? I don't think I can handle this. And si Zeno?
"Good afternoon. Sorry I'm late. I just went from the bathroom." Biglang pagsulpot niya.
Wait. Ako lang ba ang hindi ready ngayong gabing ito? This guy looked fresh and ready habang ako naman ay maga ang mata dahil sa pag-iyak. I looked ugly! Ugh!
"Arnulfo, your eldest is very beautiful just like Savannah. No wonder, my son is crazy over her." Bahagyang humalakhak ang Presidente.
Ako naman ay napapalunok lang. Hindi makatingin ng diretso sa kanila. Lalo na't nararamdaman ko ang titig sa akin ni Tita Marinela.
"I always go for the best." Buong pagmamalaking sinabi ni Zeno habang hinahalikan ang ulo ko.
I feel more conscious right now. Hindi naman talaga ako ganitong klase ng tao. Kapag nakita ako ng mga friends ko ngayon, they'd laugh at me for sure. It must be because I am pregnant.
"Are you really sure you've taken care of everything?" Bigla ay tanong ni Daddy.
"Yes, sir. I'll make sure to be on Tanya's side always."
My forehead creased. By that, is he talking about Amore? So all of them are aware of it?
"I told your father first before I followed you in LA. I also sought help from my father about it. I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I wanted to take care of it before I tell you everything."
Well, he has a point. If I were in his shoes, I'll do the same too.
And actually, there's something I'd been wanting to ask. What happened to the Del Valles? To Laurice? By the looks it, it seems that Zeno's parents accepted me as his lover.
Nagulat ako nang lumapit sa akin ang mother niya and then caressed my tummy.
"I'm glad you're both safe. I've always wanted to have an apo. Thank you for granting me my wish." She then hugged me tightly.
