After leaving Manila, she ended up in Isla Dominica in the Visayas region. The place was far from the town so she felt comfortable that her parents would not learn her whereabouts. The lifestyle of the people there is also simple which she adapted immediately.
No electricity. No gadgets. No advanced technology.
It feels like the place was very far from civilization.
"Katerina?" from the view of the ocean she turned to the person calling her name.
She saw a masculine and handsome creature standing not far away from her.
"Achilles!" she called him smiling.
Achilles was a fisherman on the island. A month after she arrived at that place she found the man unconscious on the beach after a strong typhoon struck the island. When the young man woke up, he didn't remember anything from his past. Because he was wearing a necklace with an Achilles word as a pendant, an idea came into her mind to temporarily name the stranger Achilles.
Achilles also lives with her because he has nowhere else to go. In their two months of being together, she felt a strong attraction for the man that she finds hard to control. He was very handsome, smokin' hot to be exact!
Who wouldn't fall for those electric blue tantalizing eyes with a sharp jawline. He has thick brows with thin reddish lips and a grecian pointed nose. His looks are really faacinating. He was really her style.
If only this man was her fiance, she would never back out of the marriage and would demand him to marry her as soon as possible.
"I've been looking for you for a while now," he frowned as he approached her.
"Why is there a problem?"
"Nothing, I just want to see you." Achilles smiled.
Above all the fishermen, he's the only one who has a beautiful accent when speaking. After all, the man also looks like a foreigner, unlike the native people living on the island..
"What are you staring at? Have I passed your taste test already?" Achilles grinned mischievously at her.
She blinked a couple of times after realizing that she had been staring at him for a long time now. To hide the embarrassment she felt, she hit him on the arm and stormed out.
"Let's go home Achilles, I don't wanna witness your vauntness!"
Achilles is a very cheerful man. He often smiles and spreads humor everywhere. The young man was also kind and helpful which made her like him more. Well, she's not alone though, even other women on the island like him too and it's pretty annoying.
"Katerina! Let's have breakfast here!"
She and Achilles turned around at the same time because of the voice they heard. Tasya, their elder neighbor, was standing in the distance together with other fishermen and neighbors who were about to have a banquet—like breakfast using only bare hands.
"Wow, it looks like there's free breakfast again today," Achilles said with a smile.
She just shook her head. The man is really happy when there are banquets like this on the island. People there often do this especially when there are a lot of fish caught.
They walked closer to their neighbors. Almost everyone is present and eating happily. The theme of the breakfast was boodle fight, so it became really enjoyable and zestful at the same time.
"Hello everybody! Am I late?" They turned to the newcomer who looked like she was in a beauty pageant the way she walked—Louella.
"You just arrived in time Louella, come here and join us" Norma motioned her daughter to sit next to her.
"I'll just stay here and sit next to Achilles," she declared and seductively walked towards their direction.
Louella's very vocal about her feelings for Achilles that the young man ignores. She also noticed her constantly seeking Achilles' attention, which irritated her even more.
"Stop right there Louella, you will spoil the view of our lovely Achilles and Katerina," Mira interrupted the woman.
"Mira is right, come here Louella," Norma beckoned with a threat in her voice.
Frowning, Louella obeyed and sat down next to her mother.
"You can sit here beside me, Katerina," Rico, one of their bachelor neighbors, offered her.
He's the son of Tasya and Ben. Even just her first day in the place, she noticed that the man had some feelings for her. Rico is also handsome and has a firm body figure, maybe because he was a fisherman and the redcap of the place but she doesn't feel anything special for him. Just pure friendship.
"I'll just sit next to Mira, Rico," she politely refused.
She also pulled Achilles closer to her who was now quiet and suddenly became serious. Soon they were happily eating breakfast. She looked at Achilles who was handily handling the food. She still remembered the first time he shared with them. They had already started eating when Katerina noticed that Achilles didn't move and was frowning while watching their colleagues taking a bite.
"Let's eat Achilles," she said.
"How? Is there no spoon and fork here?" Achilles asked in confusion.
"Hmm no, and we will eat like they do. Come on or else we will run out of food." She pulled him closer to the table. "Native people in the place love to eat like this."
Achilles' first try of eating with bare hands fails because the rice falls off from his hands every time he tries to feed himself. She constantly giggled because it was fun to watch him while struggling to form the rice he was about to eat. Later on she felt pity for the man so she fed him instead. At first Achilles was reluctant to accept but eventually enjoyed it.
"Why are you smiling?" Achilles interrupted her reverie.
"I just remembered the first time you tried something like this. You were so funny back then."
Achilles shook his head with a smile.
"Ayiee! What are you two whispering about?" Mira asked loudly that made everyone turn their attention to the two of them with teasing smiles on their faces.
"You know what, you two are such a perfect match," Mira teased them.
"Mira!" She immediately called her name to make her stop. She was ashamed and her cheeks felt hot.
"Well, of course, a handsome man and a beautiful lady are really a good match," Ben added.
"I'm sure if the two of you get married, you'll have very adorable kids in the future too," Norma said.
She felt awkward especially since Achilles was also staring at her intently. Her cheeks flushed even more.
"Hey, that's enough, you're making our Katerina feel uncomfortable," Alberto admonished them.
"Tss, what will Katerina's future be like with him? He doesn't remember anything from his past, not even his own name and Katerina's even sheltering him for he doesn't have anything on his pants," Rico suddenly snorted humiliatingly to Achilles.
Katerina didn't like the cut of his tongue. She hates it when one looks down onto someone just because he doesn't have anything to offer. She thought this only happens in high society but she guessed all people rich or poor do these things. But before she could answer, Louella intervened.
"Katerina doesn't really have a future with Achilles because I'm the one for him," she proudly announced.
"Stop it, Louella, what you're saying is embarrassing for Katerina," Norma scolded her daughter, but Louella just frowned.
"Why should I be shy, they're not even in a relationship, right Katerina?" Louella turned to ask her.
She sighed. If she could just claim that Achilles was her boyfriend, she would have done it so that this woman would stop her delusions, but that seems embarrassing when they're really not dating.
"You're right, Louella, Achilles is not my boyfriend," she said with emphasis.
"Oh, you see? I still have a chance, mother." Louella turned to Norma.
The corner of Rico's lips twitched. "Katerina won't really date Achilles because he has nothing to be proud of. She just felt sorry for him, so she let him live in her house and nothing else more. Right, Katerina?"
If this man wasn't the son of Tasya and Ben, she would have reprimanded him, but because she has a lot of respect for the two elders for their kindness makes her hold back. When she turned her eyes to Achilles, the piercing of the man's jaw didn't escape her sight.
"Shut your mouth, Rico! I didn't raise you to talk like that to other people," Tasya scolded him.
Rico was about to answer but he was interrupted when the young man named Empoy came rushing to where they were. Traces of fear are visible in his eyes.
"U—uncle Ben! They are here—," Empoy didn't finish what he had to say when five strong men appeared from behind him…
Katerina was nervous upon seeing the new arrivals. She had seen them once on the island when she was still new to the area. Her neighbors warned her not to go out when this group would be there because of the trouble these men were making and she might become their target. They often come to take half of the fisherman's catch. Even if she didn't agree with what they were doing, she didn't have the strength to reprimand the men. They are known for being fiery and feared even in the neighboring islands. "It looks like you have a lot of fish caught today, Ben," said the leader. As far as she remembers the man's name was Edgar. "Ah—y—yeah, it's just a bit of luck, boss," replied the old man whose fear was obvious in his voice and face. Edgar grinned evilly before speaking again. "Well, if that's the case every day, I'll take everything you've got here today." "Uhm…I g—guess that's too much boss," Ben complained weakly. Anger suddenly flashed in Edgar's eyes and grabbed the old man'
"Are you alright? You didn't get hurt, did you?" Achilles asks worriedly while checking her face to see if she got any scars. "I'm fine Achilles," she said and scanned his face too. She saw some wounds on Achilles' face, especially the cut on the side of his lip. She caressed them absentmindedly. "Does it hurt?" she asked gently. "Yeah, a little." Achilles replied, pouting. She sighed and later hit Achilles' arm in annoyance. "Ouch! Why are you hurting me?" Achilles complained. "Why were you so brave earlier! What if you can't handle those rascals?! What do you think would happen? They could've killed you Achilles!" She combed her hair in worry and frustration. Achilles looked at her as if she had said something wrong. "Then what do you want me to do? Let them touch you and take you with them?" he said in a cold manner. She swallowed multiple times. If Achilles had not intervened earlier, she would probably have been completely taken away by those rascals and made her their s
Damon kept avoiding Katerina until the night came. He's very annoyed with what the woman did and her reaction earlier because he feels that she is more on the side of that dickheaded Rico. Since his first day on the island, he could already feel the man's distaste for his presence and continued to insult him for not having his own house and money. The asshole almost ruined the good boy image he built to make Katerina fall in love with him. Damon sighed, he can't let that dumbass ruin his plan for Katerina. He didn't waste months pretending here just for nothing. He endured the hard life on the island including being a fishman plus his hate for the stingy smell and especially the neighbors around who act close to him. How he wished he could make them vanish with his grenades left in the city. "Achilles..." Katerina's soft voice sounds like a melody in his ears. He turned around and saw her currently standing in front of him while playing with her fingers. The woman's face shows
The next day, Mira invited Katerina to bathe on the beach together with their other neighbors. Katerina thought that Achilles would pick her up because they already made up but Rico was the one on her doorstep. "Goodmorning Katerina, I just wanna invite you to the beach today," Rico said. "Uh... I'm sorry Rico, Achilles might be coming to fetch me up, I'll just go with him," she politely declined. She saw Rico's silly grin at what she said. "Don't expect him to pick you up, Katerina, he and Louella are already enjoying each other's company." She suddenly felt annoyed and frustrated. She just held her breath and was forced to go with the man in front of her. Rico tried to open a conversation but she lost interest in talking that made him silent. When they arrived at the place Rico was not lying, Louella was there with Achilles and the two were still laughing as if they were the only people in the place. She began to feel a little hurt and regretted coming with Rico but she felt
Warning! Mature/Sexual Contents Ahead. Please Read At Your Own Risk(: After the passionate kiss they secretly shared, Achilles never left Katerina's side the entire time. Even Rico didn't get the chance to get close to her because she felt like Achilles was guarding her. She also can't explain the romantic excitement she feels every time she remembers the kiss. Night comes and the two of them are both sitting on the sand in front of the shore while drinking Lambanog(coconut wine). They were silent the whole time as they were thinking of what topic should be open for a conversation. Minutes passed by before they spoke…"about the kiss—" they said in chorus, stopped at the same time too and soon laughed out. "You go first," he said. She hesitated and thought that he should speak first. "No you go first," she replied. "Nah, it should be ladies' first." "But I want you to speak first." Deafening silence took place for a moment. Achilles drank almost all of his wine before speakin
Warning! Mature/Sexual Contents Ahead. Please Read At Your Own Risk(: Damon planted small kisses on Katerina's face to relieve the pain caused by his entrance, ripping her hymen off. He can still see stains of blood on his manhood, proof that he was the first man in her life. "I'm sorry baby..." He hugged her and planted a passionate kiss on her lips. Katerina wasn't the first virgin he had, in fact he couldn't count the women whom he fuck since he could remember. He loves sex and fucking someone became his hobby for so long. But he couldn't understand the joy he was feeling at this moment right now. He was moving slowly on top of Katerina, trying very hard not to hurt her even though her tightness seemed to be suffocating his shaft. Never in his life did he remember that he was this considerate when it comes to bed. Just her, just Katerina alone. When he heard the woman's soft moan, he decided to thrust hard, fast and deeper. He felt really aroused while watching his cock, i
She was on her way home from Mira's house. The woman became her close friend after she came to that island. Mira is kind and a very straightforward person. She puts her at ease that's why she likes her companion. It was as if she was still with Wilma, her best friend whom she left in Manila. "Katerina." From her mind in ponder, she came to her senses upon hearing a familiar voice. Katerina turned around and saw Rico standing by a coconut tree not far from her. That was when she remembered that she hadn't talked to him for a while now, the last time was when both of them bathed in the sea weeks ago. "Rico," she approached him. "How are you?" "I'm fine, how 'bout you? I see you're getting prettier every time I see you, Kat," Rico replied, making her chuckle. "Nah! You must be kidding me this time." After some time, she noticed how Rico behaved anxiously in front of her. He's making her curious that she can't help herself but to ask "...what's wrong? You seem a bit agitated?" "Uhm
Katerina covered her mouth with her hand as she looked around. Lamps were lined up around the picnic blanket and there on the other side stood the smiling Achilles. Katerina slowly walked towards his direction without breaking their eye contact. 'Oh my God!' her mind exclaimed. Is this his surprise? She never expected that Achilles also has romantic bones inside. The more Achilles did sweet stuff to her made her drown in him even more. "Flowers for my very beautiful woman," Achilles said and handed her the red bouquet of roses. "D—did you prepare all of this?" Stuttering, she asked in a hoarse voice and looked around again. She saw a basket that probably contained their food. A simple picnic yet it felt so romantic. Achilles scratches his cheek like a shy child. "Uh…yes, is it not nice?"Katerina shook her head with a smile "...I've been to a lot of fancy places before but believe me or not, I've never felt so happy like I do now," she confessed before planting a soft kiss on
