Lucien's Secret Wife [SPG]

Chapter 4

"Call off the marriage and send her back to the red-light district." The color drained out of my face when I heard what his younger brother suggested.

But what even shocked me most is when Lucien answered the least I expected.

"I will send her back tomorrow so shut it."

"Good. Hindi siya nababagay rito." his younger brother added that made me clenched my fist tightly.

Napaatras ako at napatakip sa bibig ko. He's going to send me back? No! Hindi pwede. I'm not going back to that hell!

After what happened last night, the master summoned his younger brother to reprimand him. I didn't mean to eavesdrop, I was just passing by the hallway nang mamataan ko si Lucien na naglalakad. Gusto ko lang sana siyang pasalamatan dahil sa ginawa niyang pagtulong sa akin ngunit hindi ko naituloy dahil kasama nito ang kapatid niya. Hindi ko naman aakalain na ito pala ang pag-uusapan nila—ang paalisin at pabalikin ako sa pinanggagalingan ko.

"I-I can't..." nanginginig ang mga tuhod ko habang naglalakad ako sa hallway.

Napahawak ako sa pader at umiling. "I can't go back there..."

No—I refused to go back! No matter what it takes, hinding hindi ako babalik doon!

Naluluha ang mga mata ko and my stomach is churning. Huminto muna ako sa paglalakad to regain my composure. I clutched my dress tightly. Parang anumang oras ay bibigay ako.

I am anxiously biting my nails. Naiisip ko pa lang kung anong mangyayari sa akin ay nasusuka ako. Natatakot ako sa mga posibilidad na mangyari sa akin kapag bumalik ako. Just like what happened to my sister.

My lips trembled and my eyes welled up with tears. Naalala ko na naman ito. I'm petrified. Hindi ko na namamalayang tumulo na pala ang mga luha ko. At habang lumilipad ang isipan ko ay hindi ko na namalayang may nakaharang pala sa dadaanan ko kaya nabunggo ako sa dibdib nito.

"Where do you think you're going?" a low voice spoke laced with irritation.

"Did you eavesdrop? What? You really expected my brother to defend you? Ha!serves you right!" tumawa si Pietro pero nakayukong nilagpasan ko lamang ito.

Hanggat maaari ay ayoko muna siyang dumagdag sa problema ko. Ayaw ko munang gumawa ng gulo. I have bigger problems to face. And I need to find a way to stay in this place.

"Hey..." malumanay na pagtawag niya. "Are you crying?"

Hindi ako sumagot at nagpatuloy lang sa paglalakad habang nakayuko ang aking ulo. Hinawakan niya ang braso ko saka ako ipinaharap sa kanya. Nagulat siya nang makita niyang basa ang pisngi ko at umiiyak ako.

"Why are you crying—" hindi niya na naituloy pa ito nang sapilitang binawi ko ang braso ko dahilan upang mapaatras siya.

"Don't fxcking touch me!" I uttered coldly na siyang ikinalaki ng kanyang mata.

How dare he look concerned when, in fact, he was the one who reported me? The only crime I have committed is that I wanted to survive. I just wanted to live! I've spent my entire life living for survival. I finally got the chance to leave that hell, but all of my efforts were ignored. I worked so hard for them to acknowledge para hindi nila ako ibalik but all of my efforts didn't paid off. My efforts were in vain thanks to them. And my only mistake was trusting people.

I didn't even know that she had an allergy. How would I know that? Bago pa lang ako. Hindi ko alam ito. Pietro should've given me a warning, but he didn't. He wanted me to leave. And now that I'm going back, sobrang saya niya siguro.

"Are you okay? Did my brother hurt you? Or did my brother—" I cut him off with a cold stare.

"I hate your family. I hate your maids. I hate him. And I hate you with every cell in my body."

After leaving him standing alone in the dark, I headed to my room and cried myself to sleep. The next morning, hindi ako sumabay sa kanila kumain. Magpapahatid lang ako sa personal maid ko. Alam kong hindi niya ito susundin. And I will just deal with her later.

Para mabawasan ang sama ng loob ko, I headed to the wine cellar to grab some strong liquors. I stayed there for quite some time and I ended up getting wasted because of the heavy liquors that I picked personally.

And right now, naglalakad ako ngayon sa hallway. I'm tipsy, and I just happened to find myself in front of his door. Lucien's room. I drew my lips into a snarl. Liar!

"You fxcking sexy liar..." I murmured, tone laced with rage.

Kinatok ko ang pinto niya ng ilang beses. When I didn't get a response, pinihit ko ito. Bukas naman pala. I laughed at myself for being an idiot.

My gaze wandered. The scent of cigarettes envelopes his cozy room. Lumibot ako sa kwarto niya at umupo sa office desk. Kinuha ko ang librong lagi niyang binabasa pero kaagad din itong nabitawan. Napangiwi ako nang mabasa ang pamagat nito. "50 Ways To Pleasure A Woman."

"What the heck?" hindi makapaniwalang bulong ko. "Why is he reading those?"

Nakakagulat lang kasi. Akala ko pa naman about sa politics ito dahil seryoso pa siya habang nagbabasa. I didn't expect that it would be about pleasuring a woman! Gosh, so gross. Para kanino niya naman iyon gagawin?

"What are you doing here?" my blood ran cold and my soul almost left my body when I heard his solemn voice behind me.

Napalunok ako at unti-unting tumingin sa direksyon niya. Mas lalo pa akong kinabahan nang makitang walang saplot ang pang itaas nito. Tanging maliit na tuwalya lang ngayon ang nakabalot sa ibaba niya. What the hell? He's half naked!

The water was still running down his ripped body and his damp hair made him look attractive. I swallowed hard. Sh*t, ang hot niya tignan!

"I-I came here to talk to you," I stammered and swallowed my pride.

"About?" he titled his head while staring at me causing me to avert my gaze.

Lucien stole my words away. I didn't expect him to be this hot. Pinagpapawisan tuloy ako.

He let out a long sigh when I didn't respond and ran his fingers through his damp hair. Lucien licked his lips.

"Woman, If you have nothing to say—" I cut him off.

"M-meron!" mabilis na sagot ko sa kanya. "I have s-something to say."

Napatikhim ako at umayos ng tindig. Inayos ko pa ang night gown ko at ang buhok ko. He gave me a perplexed look.

"What do you need? you can ask the butler for it. Don't waste my time." Lucien narrowed his eyes and grimaced. "Leave."

Akmang tatalikuran niya na sana ako nang mapahinto siya dahil sa mga sumunod na sinabi ko.

"I-I don't want to leave..." mahinang sambit ko kaya napalingon muli siya sa akin na may gulat na expression.

"You fxcking heard our conversation?" galit pa na tanong niya kaya nataranta ako.

"H-hindi ko nanan sinasadya..." mahina namang sagot ko at narinig ang mahinang pagmura nito.

Huminga ako nang malalim at kinuyom ang kamao ko. How far will I go just to survive? I closed my eyes tightly. Anything. I will do anything just to survive.

"I want to tell you that I'm not going to go back there. Gusto kong manatili rito kaya sana ay huwag mo akong ipagtabuyan."

He was taken aback and his cold exterior faded away. Nakita ko ang pagbabago at kung paano lumambot ang ekspresyon sa kanyang mukha.

"Tell me what do you want then, Nesrin." Lucien said in a monotone voice while staring intently at me, waiting for me answer.

What do I want? Of course, I want to stay here! Ayaw kong bumalik doon. I want to stay here with him. But the same time, I want to get away from him. Kung papipiliin man ako kung saan ako mananatili ay mas gugustuhin ko pang manatili sa lugar na ito kahit na maraming may ayaw sa presensya ko.

However, instead of saying those reason, iba ang lumabas sa bibig ko na sa huli ay talagang pagsisisihan ko.

"You. I want you, Lucien. I want all of you."

Due to the impact of the alcohol in my body, I was brave enough to walk towards him, lean closer to his body, and then kiss him on the lips.

"I can do whatever you want me to do. I will do everything you told me to do. Even if that means I will live forever as your secret wife and obey you." bulong ko sa tainga nito.

Lucien was stunned while looking at me. He was so close that I could feel his warm breath against my skin. Hindi ko alam kung anong nangyayari sa akin pero noong tiningnan niya ako sa aking mata ay may pagbabago sa katawan ko na ngayon ko lang na nadama. Nag-iinit ang aking katawan at may namumuo sa aking puson. What is happening to me?

I suddenly felt hot and flustered. Is this because of the alcohol? Fxck! I don't know anymore.

"You're drunk, Nesrin. You should leave—" Lucien tried to push me away pero hindi ako nagpatinag.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and pressed my body against his toned chest, which made him clench his jaw to restrain himself.

"I love you, Lucien..." I muttered while staring intently at him, which caused lust to blaze in his eyes.

"Make me your woman. Make love to me."
