"Nay Paz! It's Mabmab."
"Mab Mab? Maverick Fuentebella? My child? Mab Mab, is it really you? My Mab Mab! Come! Come! Come in, children."
Maverick unlocked the bolts in the gate and gently pushed me inside the lawn before coming beside me again and closing the gate behind us just to get my hand and pull me to the house. He kissed the old lady's head and he motioned me to do the same which I reluctantly did.
"You sit down. Have you eaten dinner already? Why didn't you call me? You two stay here and relax first while I heat the food. Your Tatay Miguel cooked special adobo."
"No problem, Nay."
She disappeared from my sight into the dark door on the right of the kitchen. I'm guessing it's a back door. Crossing my arms on my chest, I averted Maverick's eyes and stared hard at the floor as if it would start speaking to me.
"Are we going to do it tonight?" I asked to break the gnawing silence.
Maverick looked at me and shook his head as if he didn't anticipate what he heard. "Sex is the last thing on my mind right now, Femella. I'm thirsty and hungry. Save your excitement for the next few days. I'm sure you need lots of energy." He winked at me.
I closed my eyes as I struggled to hide my blushing face. "Stop it. I'm not excited. I just want this to be done and over. And I'm warning you, I don't have any idea how to pleasure a man. Don't expect me to go circus-like."
He laughed.
"Can you hear yourself? Of course I'll do the work because as you know, I'm a very hardworking man."
"Mab, come here and eat now! The table is ready!" Nay Paz called us.
"Come on." He pulled my hand together with him as he stood up.
"Can you please let go of me for Pete's sake, Maverick," I hissed. "I know the way and just like you, I'm also hungry and I already accepted your upper hand in this situation so will you stop assuming that I might go sprinting away from here?"
"It's better to be sure. I can't give you any leeway to run away."
"As if I can escape this place which I don't even have an idea of where in the goddamn map of the world. I did agree already, didn't I?"
"Good. Now let's eat," he said dismissively.
He pulled a chair from under the table for the two of us and sat right next to me.
"What a beautiful woman you bring, Mab Mab. Is she finally your girlfriend? She's much more beautiful than the girls I saw you with." The old lady kept telling us as she filled our glasses with water.
"Yes, Nay. She's Femella, my girlfriend."
A sarcastic escaped my lips when I heard him utter it with such pride and mockery. I tried to object but his firm hand was on my hand under the table and squeezed it lightly after shooting me a look that says I will not like it if he didn't want my answer.
"Fem is naturally shy with people around. She's sometimes aloof with people she just met," he added while still giving me a side look.
Me? Shy? Wow! He seriously needs to rethink of another word to describe me.
I glared at Maverick before looking at Nay Paz who's smiling from ear to ear. I can clearly see through her smile like she's amused for witnessing a lover's banter.
"Mab is right, Nay Paz. I get especially cautious when I'm with him because of our gap in everything. I mean he's rich while I'm not. She's surrounded by many other equally wealthy girls in the same circle." I put my eyes down and sighed. "Sometimes I question myself if I'm really enough for him." I toned down my voice a little to make my acting more effective.
"Mab Mab! I didn't raise you to treat a woman like that! I was only away from the mansion for years and now I will know that you are being like this? You don't do that to a woman especially to your girlfriend. I didn't raise you to be a disrespectful man!"
Maverick stiffened in his seat and then erupted into a soft laughter.
"You know how I love women, Nay. I wouldn't hurt them. Maybe Fem is just misinterpreting my possessiveness with her, right babe? Hmmm?"
He wrapped his arm around my shoulder and nudged me while faking a smile. I returned the fake smile and stomped at his foot a little too harshly which earned a soft squeal from him.
"You two are already in your right mind. You know what you are doing. Just a little reminder to you Mab to never hurt a woman. Karma will get back to you badly. Believe me. I have lived long enough to see how men grovel to their feet. Now finish your food. I will just prepare the room for you. Fem, do you have some clothes in you? I could lend you some. My niece left some of her clothes."
I shook my head.
"I got none. Thank you."
She smiled at me and left us. We continued eating while throwing occasional glances at each other. One time I caught him just staring at me at which I just shrugged. I didn't put much thought on how he's looking at me as if he's trying to remember something out of my face.
"You were quite a good actress." He broke the silence.
"You too. You deserve an Oscar award."
I picked up the chicken using my hand, dabbed it in the chili sauce and put the whole meat in my mouth.
"I wonder why you didn't pursue it. You're good at acting. Why did you end up in the club instead of showbiz."
I chewed loudly and downed some water.
"If I do, then I will not be here and you will not be able to bring me into your bed because by that time, I'll be swimming in money so I won't be needing it."
"Nice point there."
Nay Paz appeared from the door on the left.
"Mab, the bed is ready for the two of you. All the mattresses and the pillows are in the closet. Fem, the clothes are in the closet. If you wish to wash up then you can use the bathroom outside. Mab, you tell Fem where it is. I have to retire as early as now. My age is catching up on me. Goodnight, children."
She kissed our heads. I smiled sadly at myself at a memory. My grandmother used to kiss me in my head after saying goodnight.
"Alright. Goodnight." We said in unison. She looked at us and smiled warmly before going off.
I stood up carrying my plate and started washing it on the sink. I saw Maverick in my peripheral vision cleaning the table. I can't help but raise my brows at his sight. I never thought he could be this domesticated. And it looks like he's treating the old lady as a family member, a far cry from his personality, at least the arrogant and so full of himself type of Maverick he's showing me.
"Our room is on the farthest left of the hallway. I always use it every time I'm here. If you want to freshen up, the bathroom is outside that back door. Left side. The switch of the light is beside the door. You go first. I'll smoke outside."
He turned his back on me.
"I could escape. It never crossed your mind?" I stopped him.
"You won't do it. I know you won't." He said and walked out the front door.
After finishing all the dishes, I went to the room Maverick told me about. It is simple just like the rest of the house. There's a small wooden bed in the center and an old closet in a corner. On top of the bed are some mattresses, towels, pillows, clothes, and some basic toiletries. There's also a fan on the other side of the bed. Aside from that, there's no other stuff inside it.
I got the towel, the clothes, and the soap and went out of the house. After cleaning myself, I went into the backyard to find the man but he wasn't there so I just went back to the room and waited for him.
I turned on the fan and made myself comfortable in the bed I made out of the mattresses and some more I got from the closet. Pulling the blanket up to my neck, I stared at the ceiling and started counting the lizards.
I don't want to think anything about everything right now. I'm too exhausted and spent. Maybe I'll just let it be for now. No overthinking. Just maybe after this stint we have, after I pay my dues to him. After all, I'm used to not thinking extensively given how low I've become because of my job.
The door opened and Maverick came in with his travelling bag. He has changed into casual white shorts and a shirt.
He put down the bag on the floor and climbed on the bed. Instinctively, I scampered to the farthest side and stayed there until he gave me enough space. I slowly went back to my original position and waited for his move.
I hope we don't do it tonight. Please, we shouldn't.
My eyes widened when he began removing his shirt.
"Hey, I thought you're tired... D-do you want to do it now?" I asked nervously.
He moved to lay on his stomach and closed his eyes.
"It's hot. I told you there's no aircon here."
I breathed a sigh. That's a relief. It's embarrassing if they hear us doing the deed.
Absentmindedly, my gaze turned to Maverick. He's really got a good body, I have to give him that. His arms were very toned, a product of his daily workout and his exhibition of extreme sports. His pecs and abs are on display. My hunch is right when we were in the helicopter earlier. His pair of arms are really big, strong, and veiny. I wonder how it feels to touch it with my own hands. My eyes went back to his chest. This man is very clean-looking. No marks. No tattoos. There's nothing in there except his hard muscles. My gaze went lower and lower to his lower stomach where that bulge is. I gulped. Is it big? I'm sure it's not the usual average size. Yes, I've seen penises in videos and pictures but I haven't seen a real one.
Even if it's big, which I'm sure it is, my vajayjay can still handle it. I've done my research. Women's vaginas are flexible.
I gasped when he abruptly pulled me closer to his body. I fell on his chest. He encircled his arms around my waist and buried his face on my hair. I stopped breathing.
"Sleep, Fem. Stop drooling over my body. You'll taste it the soonest I regain my strength back," he said in my ears.
His hot breath fanned my neck which made all my hair in my body stand up.
I tried to get away from his arms but he just tightened his hold around me.
"Let go of me. I can't breathe."
He slowly loosened his grip on me. I thought he's going to free me completely from his arms but he just adjusted his embrace. He got my hand arm and snaked it on his waist and then he put his thigh on me.
"I don't know what you are doing with me. You don't know what I have done just to get you," he whispered.
He caressed my back gently while sniffing my hair. "Sleep, Fem."
I don't know if it has something to do with his soothing voice or the way he possessively holds me or am I just too tired but I found myself giving in to his words. I succumb to sleep in an instant.
I can hear the cackling of the chickens outside the house and the morning chattering of the birds but I still stayed still. This is what I missed about this island. It gives me a different kind of serenity whenever I'm here. But this morning I felt it was more special, especially with Femella's presence by my side.It's five in the morning according to the worn-out wall clock on top of the closet. Any minute from now, the sun will rise. Nay Paz is also awake as evident by the voices outside.It's been more than ten minutes since I started just staring up at the sleeping beauty in my arms. Her head is comfortably resting on my arm while her leg is laying on the most sensitive part of my body. I gently removed her leg from my crotch and hugged her tighter. The feel of her smooth and delicate body as if it were made perfectly to mold in
I can still feel his lips on mine, still feel his hands all over my body. His heat is still addicting, and his touch... how do I put it? His touch is unlike other guys who have touched me. Theirs is full of lust but Maverick's felt so genuine.The feel of his tongue against my skin still lingers in my memory. And his firm and hard body that was pressed against mine seconds ago sent all the doubts and fears in my mind away. It chased the remaining inhibition I'm having the moment I saw his eyes staring hard at me. I hugged myself under the covers and shivered. I felt cold for no reason. I remembered how it felt like to be inside his arms, how his heat felt so comfortable and safe. The way he held me felt so possessive. As if he doesn't want me to be free from him. It's like he's afraid I might go running away. And what does he mean by what he said before I fell asleep? Could it be? No. It's impossible. I reached for his pillow and smelled it. An
It was already late in the evening when I got back to the island because I needed to make sure that Andy's wife was out of danger first.I have to make contact every now and then because of the worsening condition of Andy's wife. It was a long day for me. After making sure that Andy's wife is properly taken care of, I immediately drove back to the office to check in there. I just suddenly left the whole company under the management of my trusted administrative officer the day Vida barged and got caught. Though there has been constant communication and I am also confident in the abilities of the staff, I am still restless.I used to oversee everything not too long before the woman named Femella happened and all I thought I couldn't do turned out to be just in my mind after all.What's even worse is I didn't even think twice before doing it. First, I gave the footage to Vida in exchange for Femella. What I did is clearly a breach of the contract I had w
I was already awake as soon as Maverick entered the room. I just pretended to be asleep to find out what he was going to do.And when he kissed me, I knew right then that there's no going back. The way he frantically tangled his tongue with mine tells me he will not hold back this time. He's going to take me tonight. I raised my hand so he could take off his t-shirt. He tossed it on the floor then stared at my nakedness with full admiration in his eyes.His eyes traveled down to my breast, to my flat stomach down to the triangle between my legs that is already moist with need. He stared back at my big proud breast and palmed them. He caught my eye as he lightly massaged my breasts.I tried to hold on to his stare but I couldn't help but shut my eyes when he started to play at my already hardened nipples with his fingers. Trickles of pleasure flooded me. I felt fluid gushed out from my womanhood. I moaned and wriggled my body.
I caressed Femella's back and then gave her a small kiss on her head.Their breathing is still uneven from the recent activity. I pulled the woman closer and buried my face in her hair.I cannot believe what I just felt. It's the best sex I had hands down. Sure, the woman is not a great kisser, heck she's the worst kisser I ever had but it was the most satisfying release I ever had in my entire life. I cannot understand what I'm feeling now. There's something about the familiarity I felt with Femella that made me melt inside. I kissed her temple again. "So? How was it? What's my rating?"I touched her arm playfully.She laughed. Something tugged at me. I think it's the sexiest one I've ever heard."Nope. Still five. You hurt me."I got worried about what she said."D-did it really hurt that bad? Does it hurt until now? Hey, I did everything." I bent down to inspect her face.
I opened my eyes to the soft warmth of the morning. The first thing that greeted me was the sunlight penetrating from the glass window. I raised my hand to cover my face and moved to get up but an arm tightly coiled around my waist stopped me.I stiffened for a while and recalled everything. The events from last night gradually came back to me. My face heated up with memories. Sighing, I slowly removed the legs that were holding me captive then slowly slipped out of Maverick's embrace. I got off the bed and looked for my t-shirt on the floor. I immediately put them on and walked to the bathroom. I took a shower first to soothe my aching muscles.I still hurt down there but it's not as painful as last night. My face went red again when images from what happened came running down to my mind.I tried to shake off the memories and started rinsing my body off. I wiped my body with a towel and covered myself before le
"Is Femella Alcantara your real name?"Fem lifted her head from her plate and gave me a confused look."Why are you suddenly asking me that?"I swallowed what I'm eating before answering."I just wanna know."I followed the way she held the glass of water in her hand while drinking."Yeah, it's my real name."I nodded."Your age?""23.""You look younger than your age."She shrugged her shoulders. "Thank you. Everyone says that." She looked down and played at her food with the knife."Where do you live?""I used to live in an apartment near the club but I transferred in La Vida ever since I started working there.""How about your family? Where are they?"She stopped slicing the meat and lowered down the knife and fork and then looked at me suspiciously."What's with the questions, Fuentebella? Are you required to know the whole per
I quickly wiped away my tears when Maverick turned away. Shit. It's not the best time to be emotional right now. Even though what he said is something that I know I will remember in my whole life, it was still not enough reason for me to show weakness. I sighed and got up and took the dishes to the sink to wash.I stopped myself from replaying his words in my head because it only brings me back to that bitter past. That will only do no good. Sure, it hits her from the core but she promised herself that she will move on from it. No looking back anymore. I have to overcome this situation I'm in right now for me to completely get over this phase and move on to the other. I have been suffering from the memories of yesterday for several years now and now that I have seen the light to get out of the situation that plagues me every day, I will do everything to make it all work according to the plan.She just has to endure this one week with the man.
