Sensual (The Valentine Brothers Series)

PROLOGUE

Everything started like any other dream.

It's always been that way.

Always.

I don't think it will ever stop. Not in this lifetime.

"Ano sa tingin mo, Ree?" rinig na rinig ko ang boses niya. I can feel his breath fanning at an 9 year old me.

And I, as a kid, who seeks for attention, smiled up at him in full naïvety. Never really having the idea of what was to come.

Gusto kong sampalin ang sarili ko upang matauhan. But this is just a dream, and as always I'm the spectator.

Naramdaman ko ang pag gapang ng kamay niya sa legs ko. My polka dots dress slowly riding up as I feel his rough hands. Once again, the 9 year old me still doesn't have an idea of what's going on.

He smiled down at me and I feel myself smiling back.

Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko saka ito inilagay sa harapan ng kanyang pantalon. I felt myself look at him in wonder as he slowly put his hands inside my panties.

Then wonder turned into horror when he started to touch in places that I feel like he shouldn't.

Once again, the 9 year old me whispered, terrified.

"Tito?"

"Shh ... you're a good girl, Ree."

I willed at my young self in the dream.

I willed her to scream.

Scream!!!

Then I stopped, because now he wasn't looking at the nine year old me.

He was looking straight at me.

He grinned evilly.

"You've grown, Ree"

"FUCK!" I woke, startled. My chest heaving.

I looked around frantically. Adrenaline rushing through me as I look around looking for danger.

I can feel myself damp from sweat, my mind raising and the first thought that came to my mind was him.

Him.

I know that he's just down the hall.

With adrenaline still pumping, I walked out of my room. My hands wrapped tightly around myself as I walk barefoot in the hall.

As always, his door was unlocked as if he was always waiting for me.

I slowly crept inside his dark room, my knees hitting the foot of his bed as I rummage my hands around the bed.

Just then I felt a hand wrapping tightly around mine, then softly pulling me toward him.

Without any word, he wrapped his hands around me.

I sighed.

I know in that moment, that I would willingly melt myself in the safety of his arms.
