THE WEB Of LUST AND LIES

SLEEPING WITH THE HEIR

Isabella's POV

As soon as the door closes the man picks me up and places me on the bed. I wanted to protest , I wanted to

say a word but my mouth was dry. I

couldn't say a word.

He pulls my dress over my head and unhook my bra. He then, ripped my panties and I followed his hand, throwing my clothes on the floor. The dim light is enough to see the silhouette of his actions.

I don't understand what is happening to my body , I felt numb and tired . And could do nothing . I wanted to push him , I wanted to run but I couldn't even move . I tried to speak , but it seems my throat is dry .

He started kissing me , His mouth is warm and rough. He sucks and nibble on me. I have no idea what is to be expected on me .

His hands trails down my stomach until he settles between my legs and a strange warmth pool in my region. Strange, but I unexpectedly moan softly . "Yeah baby , that's better," he mumbles against my breast as his fingers keep doing magic on me .

The feeling of fatigue and embarrassment overflows me as I feel the moisture , but he seems pleased as he groans against my skin . He lifts himself and settles between my legs and I close my eyes tightly as I couldn't properly see him , though I wish I can .

He penetrates me hard and fast , and I cannot contain the scream that escape from my mind , because I knew no word has come out from my mouth, it seems that I am immobile and paralyzed after I drink the glass of alcohol from Clarisse.

I bite hard on my lip as he shoves into me over and over. My fingers curve into the linen as I absorb the pain . The unwanted tear roll down to my cheek. The man releases a loud growl as he reaches his climax , and his breathing is heavy as he whispered at me . "Again .." he says before kissing me .

I grunt in pain when I stretch out and instantly lay still. Everything hurts. From my throbbing head down to my ankles. Flashes of the previous night bombarded my brain and I cringe. I close my eyes as I try to remember what happened.

"Drink this.." Clarisse order. My eyes darted to the glass of wine she is holding . " I'm sorry, but I don't drink .." I smiled and decline the offer politely. "Oh , come on Isabella.." Clarisse motion to her friends who were watching us .

"Don't tell me you are going to embarrass me in front of my friends ?, right inside my f****** mansion..?!" Clarisse is a spoiled brat and boastful. She always pick up on me , knowing that I wouldn't fight . Who would put up a fight with her? She's the daughter of Doña Agatha and Don Miguel , the richest family in Ilo-ilo City.

"It's not like that , I'm here to ..work.." I said right through her face. She sneered, "Right , you are working right now huh?, and would you care to tell me who is the belle of this house ,hhmn mansion rather..?" She smirk . Nagtawanan naman ang kaniyang mga kaibigan. Ang sarap lang buhusan ng alak ang mga ito .

I know she was drunk, hindi na siya nakikinig ng rason, pero alam kong sanay na siyang uminom , she and her friends are good in this department . But me , in my twenty years of existence, hindi ko pa naranasan ang uminom. Kaya , nag aalinlangan ako . Besides , not a drink coming from her.

"What are you waiting for..? Now! " hinawakan Niya ang kamay ko at pilit na ibinigay ang baso ng wine sa akin . Wala na akong nagawa pa kundi ang tanggapin ito , " Okay, thanks .." I said , sabay talikod upang dumiretso sa kusina . " Opps, not so fast sweetie.." Hinawakan ni Clarisse ang aking balikat ,"Where do you think you are going?"

I sighed, " Look, Clarisse..inutusan ako ni aling Magda na kunin ang pulutan sa kusina , marami pa kasing mga bisita ang nagsidating. " Then go, but right after you drink that .." itinuro nito ang hawak kong baso.

Dahil sa takot akong mapagalitan ni Doña Agatha, kapag nagsumbong si Aling Magda, na hindi ko ginawa ng maayos ang trabaho ko ay pigil hininga Kong ininom ang hawak kong baso ng wine. Natagalan na ako dahil sa pagharang ni Clarisse sa akin .

"Good girl,!" Clarisse smile at me wickedly . She tap my shoulder, then she slid her hold to my arm and dig her nails on it. "Ooach.. Clarisse , it hurts.." I said while I'm gasping for breath. Was it the alcohol .?

Nanlisik ang mga mata nito na tiningnan ako , hindi pa rin binitiwan ang braso ko. "You stay away from Andrew,. or else. I wouldn't be forgiving the next time I will see your f****** face !" She warned me.

"What..?" I tried to ask her about Andrew but I felt the place was spinning .

"What?, little kitten can't talk now?" I have a feeling alam nila na mangyayari sa akin ito . A calculated move.

Nagtawanan sila at tumalikod na pabalik sa grand Hall where the party was held.

Naramdaman ko na uminit ang katawan ko , pagkatapos ay parang nasusuka ako at nahihilo. At natatandaan ko na naghahanap ako ng banyo dahil nasusuka ako at umiinit ang buong katawan ko.

Hanggang sa may humablot nga sa akin papasok sa kuwarto . That one single shot of alcohol has created a band that is keeping an offbeat rhythm in my head, sending waves of pain against my temples and eyes. Bakit kaya ganon ang nararamdaman ko ? Hindi naman ganoon ang kalala ang epekto ng alcohol kahit first time drinker pa. Iyon ang naririnig Kong kwento ng mga kaklasi kong first time sumabak sa inuman . Hindi kaya may hinalong droga si Clarisse sa inumin na bigay Niya?

Dahil sa sobrang sakit ng aking ulo , pagsusuka at pagkahilo , nanlalata at manhid na katawan., at hindi ako nakapagsalita kagabi ay Isang indikasyon na may halo nga ang aking ininom na alak .

And the pain in the rest of my body ...the man was responsible for that pain. He was like an animal .I heard him snore so I partially opened my eyes to see who was responsible . I was so shocked to see the man beside me , Ethan Romualdez! Hindi ako makagalaw , hindi ako makapagsalita dahil sa sobrang pagkabigla, how did I ended in Ethan"s bedroom? Oh, God..

At dahil na rin nahimasmasan na ang manhid Kong katawan . I look at my surroundings , sunrays are dancing through the window curtains and it takes a moment for me to realize that my life has shattered. I cried in disbelief .

What am I gonna do? Why should I take into the walk of shame for the crime that I didn't commit? Hindi ako malalagay sa ganitong kahihiyan kung hindi dahil sa kapatid mismo ni Ethan. Should I wake him up? Should I confront him? What would I say then,? I haven't even said hi to this man last night , except that we are exchanging glances and smiles . The man was drop dead gorgeous , naramdaman kong uminit ang aking katawan habang inaalala ko ang nangyari kagabi.

Ethan Romualdez's smell of alcohol indicated that he was also intoxicated last night . Most probably he didn't recognize me and possibly no memories of what happened at all. Besides , the room was dim last night , malamang hindi ako nito nakita.

Minsan pa sinulyapan ko siya , naipagkaloob ko ang aking p********e sa isang binata na bagama't anak ng amo namin dito sa buong lupain na aming tinitirhan, ay hindi maipagkaila na isa siyang estranghero. Hindi siya naglalagi sa asyenda , though may mga naririnig akong usapin ukol sa kaniya. Mabait , siya lamang ang mabait sa kanilang pamilya.

Wala na akong magagawa pa , nangyari na ang nangyari. As quitely as I can , I worm out of bed slowly, with any luck, I can be out of here before he wakes up. " Hey .?" His voice demands authority and I shriek as I turn around to see him . His eyes dartles lazily over my body and I blush beef red when I realize that I am naked. I reach over for the blanket and jerk it off the bed to cover my nakedness .

I widened my eyes to realize that was a mistake, I swallow as I look at the floor., Ethan sprawled out in the bed with his huge crown jewels on display and apparently, it doesn't bother him one little bit . Oh my gosh , I wish the floor would open and swallow me whole .

"Why so shy?" He chuckles as he put his hands behind his head . "I've seen it all last night. "

Because I couldn't believe that this is happening to me , also you have no shame , I think to myself as I am gathering my clothes. Then it hit me, bakit niya nasabing nakita Niya ang katawan ko kagabi ? Madilim naman..

"You've..seen , me ..last night,?" I ask him . Ngumiti ito ng buong lambing , at lumantad sa akin ang maputi at pantay niyang mga ngipin . " As much as you can see my body too.." he trailed off.

I swallow the lump in my throat. So , hindi pala madilim ang silid , ang paningin ko lang ang dumilim? And then again bunga rin ba ito ng alcohol ? Now I am so sure na may halong droga ang isang baso ng wine na ibinigay sa akin ni Clarisse.

I wanted to explain to him na hindi ko gawain ang nangyari kagabi. I wanted to tell him that it was his sister's fault, but I said nothing. Baka hindi rin naman ito maniwala sa akin . Isa pa nagmamadali na ako sa pag -alis , kapag nakita ako ni Doña Agatha tiyak na katakot takot ang kahinatnan ko. Isa pa sina lolo at lola , oh God ..

"I should go ," I mumble as I quickly put on my dress . I am not going to bother with my bra , not while he is watching and my underwear..oh no ! He ripped my panties!

" Why so hurry ? Let's have some coffee .." his tone of voice is superior as he stands up. " No .." I said .

He abruptly stays quite , and I follow his gaze to the blood stain on the center of the bed. I swallow hard as the tears were forming from my eye, I blink to prevent them from falling.

Iniingatan ko ang aking p********e hindi dahil sa isang pamahiin o ano pa mang kadahilanan, kundi coming from a poor home , this was the most valuable gift that I could offer to my husband someday.

Something pure and priceless and I give it away for ...free , but I was not to blame ! Was I ? "Your first time ?" His voice is low as he looks at me.
