Enemy's Trap (4th Gen #1)

Chapter 22 (2)

THE DATE

"Are you ready, babe?" Heixon asked her as she entered the car.

"Yes, I'm excited." She flashed a wide smile at him while buckling her seatbelt.

"You look so happy." Puna sa kanya nito. She just hummed in return.

"Where are you taking me?" Kapagkuwan ay tanong niya sa binata habang nasa biyahe sila.

"To your favorite place."

Namilog ang mata niya sa kasabikan.

"In the Race? You will Race?" She can't hide excitement on her voice.

"Do you want to see me racing?"  Tanong nito.

"Yes!"

Dati kasi ay iniiwasan niya talaga ang race game kung saan ang binata ang magkakarera. Well, he's her greatest enemy after all.

After a quite long drive they arrive at their destination.

Malakas na mga hiyawan ang naririnig na niya habang nasa entrada pa sila.

"May karera ngayon?" She asked him.

Akala niya kasi sila lang ng binata sa Monstrous Race Field pero mas okay naman kung makipagkarera ang binata ngayon dahil gusto niyang makita itong magkarera.

"Yes."

"It's not a normal race, am I right?" Tanong niya rito.

Well, minsan kasi parang magpupustahan lang but the most watched race by people is the winning of the title as Monstrous Racer. And right now, Heixon is currently holding that title. From Keil to Hendrix passed to Heixon.

But the real big three of Monstrous Race of the year is her husband, Heazen and Keil Kim. Last year was different too.

"No. For the others their goalis to win the Race by winning the Montrous Racer title. While me, I just have to keep that title with me. I shouldn't lose." He answered as he stopped the car on his designated parking lot.

"Oh. Goodluck then, hubby Marcus." She said then place a kiss on his cheek.

She felt him stiffened and unable to breath on what she did. Well, it was new. She wasn't always like that to him.

At dahil nahihiya siya sa inasta ay nagmamadali siyanga lumabas ng kotse. Ramdam na ramdam niya ang init ng kanyang pisngi. Parang nasusunog ata ang mukha niya.

Mas dumoble ang tibok ng puso niya ng marinig niya ang mabilis na papalit na hakbang ng binata.

"Cleo Pat Rha Fortez-Benjamin!" Heixon called her but she pretend that she didn't hear that and continue fast walking.

Malapit na siya sa pintobeans para makapasok sa field ng haklitin siya ng binata sa braso at sinakop ng buong-buo ang kanyang labi.

"Hmpf!" She tried pushing him because she can't breath but Heixon was too strong, she pull her closer leaving her no choice but to kiss him back.

Ng humiwalay ang binata ay habol nila ang hininga.

"Why---"

"Say it  again, wife-baby. Please, fucking say it again." He begged.

Napalunok siya ng laway.

"S-say what?" She stammered. She's nervous as hell, can she really say it infront of him?

"The one you called me earlier." Mariin nitkng sabi. Tila hindi na makapaghintay na marinig muli ang sasabihin niya.

"H-hubby M-marcus," tumikhim siya para ayusin ang pagsalita at hindi na mautal. "Hubby Marcus." She said while intently looking at her.

Muling sinakop ng binata ang kanyang labi na buong ouso niyang ginantihan. Humiwalay ito sa kanya at hinawakan ang kanyang mukha gamit ang dalawang kamay nito para sa kanya lamang mapunta ang kanyang atensyon.

"Cleo, I lo---"

"Let's welcome our Monstrous Racer! Heixcole!" The door suddenly open and the host's voice welcomed them. Hindi na tuloy nita narinig ang sinabi ng binata.

Iginiya na siya ng binata papasok ng field. Ang mga kamera at ang masigarbong palakpakan ang sumalubong sa kanila.

"Heixon, may sinabi ka ba sa akin kanina?" Tanong niya sa binata.

"Hmmm." He just hummed. Gusto man niyang tanungin ito ulit ng magsalita ulit ang host.

"The Monstrous Racer have a very beautiful company. That's controversial. Can she be his downfall?" The host said.

Sa huling sinabi ng host ay humugpit ang pagkakahawak ng binata sa bewang niya.

"Heixon, what is he talking about? W-what downfall?"

Tumiim ang bagang ng binata. "Don't mind him." Lumingon sa kanya ang binata at binigyan siya ng ngiti.

"HEIXON." Tawag sa kanya ng Heazen ng pumasok ito sa silid kung saan nagsuot siya ng damit na pangkarera.

"Bro, what are you doing here?" Nagtatakang tanong niya rito. Hindi naman ito sasali sa karera.

"Hindi ako mapanatag. I will join the race to look after you." Seryosong sabi ni Heazen sa kanya.

"Heazen, I've got this. Kaya ko na 'to."

"I don't care, I will still join the race. Douglas is here, he will join the race." Sabi nito sa kanya.

Douglas. Ang lalaking mainit na ang mata sa kanya dati pa man. He tried to join every race he do, para talunin siya. But Douglas always fail.

"Okay, suit yourself Heazen." Sabi na lang niya.

Sabay silang napalingon ng muli na namang bumukas ang pinto. It's Keil.

"Bro, just please slow down." Pakiusap nito.

He sighed. Alam niya kung ano ang dinaramdam ng dalawa. They were thinking about his downfall, the curse of the Monstrous Racer. That if they find their match, you will be on danger or harm, or they will lose the game if it's your match who will compete with you or you.

"I'll be fine, don't worry." He said to the both. Sinuot na niya ang head protective gear at saka nilisan ang silid.

Paglabas niya sa dressing room. Nakita niya ang dalaga na nakaupo sa sofa sa sala ng racer's hall. Her eyes were full of amazed looking around the hall.

"Wife-baby." He called her.

Ng lumingon sa kanya ang asawa ay nagulat ito sa postura niya.

"Wow." She mumbled.

He chuckle then walked towards her.

"How's my look?"

"You look so hot on that suit." She said taking his breath away.

Kanina pa niya napansin ang mga matatamis na salita ng dalaga. His hope rose up thinking that maybe...maybe she feel the same way as hers.

"Let's go?" Aya niya ng pinatawag na sila bg host.

"Yes. I can't wait to see what you've got." Sabi nito tila hinahamon siya.

"I will show you everything I've got, wife-baby."
