Hacienda Series I Cresencia

King Nikolov of Romanovia needs a queen, to warm his bed, to be his plaything. And later on be the mother of his children, by the responsibility bestowed upon him. There are plenty of fish in the sea. The royals, the elites, the rich. But those do not excite him anymore. What his people don't know is that he had already set his sights on someone of a very low position in his kingdom. A voluptuous, meek, and innocent woman cleaning his chambers. Sometimes hardheaded, but always his. But here's the catch. He's 23. She's 35. Could he trap her in his knightly yet ungentlemanly ways and make her his queen? By hook or by crook he will. Nikolov always wins. She is his crown after all. ••••••••••••••••••••• TRIGGER WARNING: Depiction of sexual abuse, descriptive mature content, violence, and strong language. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.

(Delilah Series # 3) "You were my father's mistress. How else do you want me to treat you?" Halos matumba ako sa bigat na dumagan sa puso ko dahil sa sinabi niya. Tell him! Tell him the truth. Tell him why you had to do it! Sigaw ng utak ko ngunit hindi naman kayang panindigan ng bibig ko. Tulad na lang ng nakaraan ay wala akong ibang nagawa. I looked at him with pleading eyes. Hoping for him to understand. Begging him to search for the truth himself. "Tell me, Clau or shall I say tell me, Doctor Abigail Claudine Manalo," binabalot ng pait ang bawat pagbigkas niya sa buo kong pangalan. "Did you think of my father while you slept with me? Did you wish it was him beside you while you were in bed with me?" Bumalatay ang sakit at pang-aakusa sa kanyang mga mata. "Did you . . . even love me?" "Ang . . . Ang tagal na no'n, Theo," tanging nasabi ko sa mahinang boses. Napasinghap ako at napatakip sa bibig nang suntukin niya ang pader. Malutong ang sunud-sunod na pagmura niya. Nagtagis ang kanyang bagang. Tiningnan ko ang kamay niya at nahindik sa nakitang dugo na dumaloy mula rito. Sumabay dito ang pagbuhos ng mga luha ko. "T-Theo. . ." Tinitigan niya ang kanyang nagdurugong kamao. Ni isang beses ay hindi niya ako sinulyapan. It was like I wasn't even there. Just him, his anger, and his pain. He turned around and walked away. I wanted so bad to tell him the truth. Pero paano ko gagawin iyon? Paano ko sasabihin sa kanya ang katotohanan kung lalo lang itong ikawawasak ng buhay niya?

(Delilah Series # 2) "Is it true that you were your own stepfather's mistress?" Alam ko na kailangan kong depensahan ang sarili ko. I look at the few people who are seated inside the trial court. Sa mga mata nila ay nakikita kong hinuhusgahan na nila ang buo kong pagkatao. Dumapo ang tingin ko kay Lolo na nakaupo sa tabi ni Attorney Pelaez. Pumikit siya nang mariin. "N-No... No... That is not true... " namamaos kong paninindigan. Halos maubusan na ng lakas. I could not feel the witness chair where I'm sitting on anymore. Pumikit ako nang mariin at kasabay nito ay ang paglandas ng maiinit na mga luha. "Please... Hindi t-totoo 'yan... Please s-stop," pagmamakaawang hikbi ko. Yumuko ako dahil hindi na kaya pang tanggapin ang mga mapanghusgang tingin ng mga nasa harapan. Lalong-lalo na ng abogadong siyang tila ba nagpaparatang. "Do you have anymore questions, Mr. Attorney?" mahinahong tanong ng judge. "None, Your Honor," biglang namaos ang boses niya. "No more questions for this cross examination." Nag-angat ako ng mukha. Tiningnan ko ang hitsura ng lalaki na minsan ko ng minahal nang lubusan. I looked at the face of my mother's criminal defense attorney. The very face of Attorney Lake Jacobe Mendez.
