"Yes?" She asked as she tilted her face to look at him.
"I'm always here for you." He whispered and she frowned.
"That one-liner just took my breath away but in a bad way." She answered. "What is it?" She inquired and he smiled.
"Wala. Gusto ko lang magpacute sayo baka sakaling ngayon ay di mo na ako bibitinin." He reasoned and she laughed.
"Sorry kasi dalawang beses ka nang nabitin. Unintentional naman both counts, your honor." She said and he chuckled. He cupped her face and stared at her. "Bakit?" She asked and he shook his head. "Naku, Alex kinakabahan ako sa mga inaasta mo ngayon. Is there something that you'd like to tell me?" She queried and he shook his head.
"Wala naman, I just got tongue-tied looking at you." He said and she arched her brow.
"Are you sure it has something to do with my face and not the fact that your hand is inside my top and fondling my breast?" She questioned.
"That too." He answered as his hand travelled lower. He gave her a lopsided grin when she began to pant.
"Alex, what are you doing?" She gasped when his fingers started to move. "Alex!"
"Shhh..." He whispered as he continued touching her. "Gusto lang kitang panuorin." He murmured as Alexa's breathing became ragged. His movement quickened and she cried out in rapture. He swooped down to capture her mouth to swallow her scream and she wrapped her arms around him. "Pagod ka na?" He asked after a minute and she nodded her head.
"Ang bilis naman." He said with a pout he pulled her pajama bottoms off her. He discarded the rest of her clothes and stripped naked. "Tulog ka lang." He whispered as he sunk into her. "Kung makakatulog ka." He added with a boyish grin as he started to move.
"Gising na ako." Alexa replied and he gasped as she moved against him.
Lia jumped when her phone rang and she cursed under her breath when she saw the name reflected on the screen. She was tempted to ignore the caller but she knew she'd be in bigger trouble if she did. Clearing her throat, she swiped her screen to answer the call.
"Marcus darling." She said. "What owes me this pleasure? Don't worry, I'll pay for the damages. I'm just waiting for the money. I'm sure dadating yun, natagalan lang yata or baka offline ang bank."
"Lia, we will be forced to pursue legal actions against you kung hindi ka magbabayad. It is bad enough that my client's company's name has been stained because of the ruckus you caused." Marcus Mendoza, the legal representative of Lia's agency, muttered and she gritted her teeth.
"Marcus, there's no reputation to taint. Pipitsuging agency lang naman kayo at sa kasamaang palad ay lasing lang ako kaya nyo ako napapirma ng kontrata. I could drag this to court too but unlike you I have a family name to protect. But don't push your luck, darling baka mag-init ang ulo ko at pare-pareho tayong pulutin sa kangkungan."
"You signed the contract so it is legal."
"And I'm a Carbonel in case you've forgotten." Lia said and she heard Marcus sigh.
"Lia, let's not make this difficult for both parties. You signed a contract, ayaw mo yung project at naglabas na ng pera ang kliyente ko para sa project na yun, we're only after the damages that you caused."
"As far as I know, I sighed up as a model and not as a porn actress!" She spat and sighed.
"We'll take this to court, Lia kung hindi mo ma-settle. I'm sure your father will be unhappy if he learns that his daughter--"
"Fuck you! Do not drag my father into this at baka yung non-existent balls mo ay tanggalin ko at isaksak sa bunganga mo!" She yelled before she ended the call. She glanced at her watch as she took a puff from her cigarette. She thought Lianna would easily give in to her demands but she was wrong. "Puta!" She hissed. "Walang silbing kapatid!" She murmured angrily. She looked around the posh condominium unit that her father bought for her which, unfortunately, is not under her name. She thought Lianna would really cut her credit cards and bank accounts off although she wouldn't really mind. Wala namang laman ang bangko ko at maxxed out na ang credit cards ko. Gaga, yung pa talagang pinanakot mo sa akin! She thought. She was tempted to call her mother but she knew she'd get an earful from her and she'd be blamed for everything including her mother's break-up with her latest boyfriend. "Happy Birthday, Lia." She said with a bitter laugh and cursed when she felt her eyes well-up with tears. "Puta, kapag tumatanda ka talaga..." She sobbed as she wiped her tears with the back of her hand. She heard her phone ring and frowned seeing the unregistered number.
