Gia POV

Two seconds.

Just two fleeting seconds, and everything changes.

Three words.

Just three simple words, altering the entire dynamic.

It has been a week since that bewildering day. I try to go about my life as if nothing happened. Mr. Unknown continues to make his presence known, invading my nights like clockwork. My body reluctantly adjusts, even though I despise the situation. It's as if I am designed for this torment. It's excruciating, yet whenever he appears, my body instinctively prepares to surrender. And he always leaves me torn between fear and a strange satisfaction.

As for Way, well... I haven't mentioned anything to Sorn about his confession. It's best to keep it private, to avoid any misunderstandings.

"You're funny!" I laughed aloud and playfully smacked his shoulder. Way pushed away my hand from his shoulder and grabbed it tightly, refusing to let me go.

"I'm not amused," he said, his expression serious. I frowned, trying to pull my hand away, but he held onto it firmly.

"I was just joking, Way," I said, feeling a little worried and awkward. I stood up and quickly made my way into the makeup room, hoping to escape the situation. However, Way followed me from behind, showing that he was determined to discuss this further.

I sighed heavily as he closed the door behind us. He approached me cautiously, his eyes filled with a mix of anticipation and nervousness.

"I meant what I said. I confessed my love to you," he admitted, his voice filled with vulnerability. "You said no woman in this world would reject me, so I thought you wouldn't either, right?"

I felt my lips trembling as I tried to find the right words. I had never expected this turn of events, and my mind was racing to process it all.

"It's not that simple, Way," I finally managed to say, my voice tinged with sadness. "I have my reasons. It's for your own good. I can't accept this..."

"No..." Way's voice was barely a whisper as he shook his head, his eyes filled with disappointment.

"Yes, Way. I'm sorry," I said, my voice trembling. "I can't reciprocate your feelings. I wish I could, but it's just not possible."

In that moment, Way embraced me tightly, holding onto me as if trying to keep our connection intact. I could feel his heartache through his touch.

"I don't want to hear that," he murmured, his voice filled with pain. "All I want is you."

Tears welled up in my eyes as I held onto him, understanding the depth of his emotions. I wished things could be different, but sometimes life doesn't align with our desires.

"I'm sorry," I whispered, my voice barely audible. "I truly am."

We stood there in silence, wrapped in each other's arms, feeling the weight of our unrequited love. It was a poignant moment of truth, where our paths diverged, leaving behind a bittersweet ache in our hearts.

And in that moment, we both knew that things would never be the same again.

"I've been in love with you for so long, Gia. All this time, I've watched you from afar, standing by your side with Sorn. But my heart aches every time. There's no one else I desire but you," Way confessed, his voice filled with both vulnerability and determination.

His words pierced through my heart, and I could feel the weight of his emotions. I gently removed his hand from my cheek, trying to steady myself.

"Way... It's complicated," I whispered, my voice trembling. "I have my reasons, and I can't risk bringing any harm into our lives."

Tears welled up in his eyes as he looked at me, his hand still holding onto mine tightly. I fought back my own tears, not wanting to let my emotions show.

"Nothing bad will happen, Gia. I promise to work hard for our relationship," he pleaded, his voice filled with sincerity.

"It's not that simple," I said, my voice breaking slightly. "I... I don't think we're the right match for each other."

Way's gaze bore into mine, searching for answers. My heart pounded in my chest, the weight of the truth I couldn't share with him pressing down on me.

Please, I prayed silently, pleading for a way out of this situation. I couldn't bear to let Way know the truth, for fear of the consequences it would bring.

In that moment, I made a silent promise to myself. I would do whatever it took to protect those I cared about, even if it meant sacrificing my own happiness.

"I understand..." I let out a heavy sigh, feeling the weight of the situation. It seemed like Way wasn't going to give up easily. My heart fluttered, torn between the desire to give in and the need to stick to my reasons.

"Fine. I'll work hard to meet your expectations. I'll make you fall for me. Just you wait and see. This love story isn't ending here," Way declared, his eyes shining with determination.

"That's not what I meant! Argh!" I exclaimed, frustration creeping into my voice.

"What do you mean, then?" Way asked, looking at me with a mix of curiosity and hope.

I scrambled to find the right words, searching for a clever excuse to reject him once more.

"Okay, look... We have a significant age gap," I blurted out, hoping it would be a valid reason.

"Ten years is nothing!" Way smirked, teasing me with a playful glint in his eyes.

"I'm your brother's friend!" I continued, desperately trying to come up with more reasons.

"My family has known you for ages. They would be thrilled to have you as part of the family," Way countered, his confidence unwavering.

Oh no, I forgot about that!

"And... you're still jobless!" I blurted out, grasping at straws.

Way's face lit up with a mischievous grin. "I'll find a job right after this internship. I actually own a gallery and a small studio. So, technically, I do have a job," he revealed, his smile widening.

"What? Really?" I stammered, taken aback by his unexpected confession.

Suddenly, my clever excuses had evaporated, and I found myself at a loss for words. Way's persistence and charm had left me defenseless, and I couldn't deny the growing feelings in my own heart.

"I don't want you to get hurt! Falling in love with me is like walking into a battlefield!" I blurted out, hoping to deter him by painting a grim picture.

Way raised an eyebrow, his lips curling into a playful smile. "You've run out of ideas, haven't you?" he teased, his confidence undeterred. I felt a pang of frustration, realizing that my attempts to push him away were failing.

With a defeated sigh, I replied, "I'm just trying to protect you. I don't want anything bad to happen because of our relationship."

Way approached me, his gaze unwavering. "So, you don't have a solid reason why we shouldn't be together. Alright, challenge accepted. I'll make you fall for me, sooner or later," he declared, taking hold of my hand and placing a gentle kiss on the back of my palm. He then turned towards the door, leaving me stunned and speechless.

"Can't wait to make you mine," he said with a playful smile and a wink, before disappearing from the room, leaving me in a state of utter confusion and chaos.

I was left to grapple with my own emotions, realizing that my attempts to push him away had only deepened my feelings for him. I was in a complete mess, unsure of what the future held for us.

***

My mind goes back to the present.

I jerk, as I try to hold the vibration inside me. I wanna scream but my mouth is bound. As usual, my eyes got blinded for a moment. Hands tied at my back this time, with me on my knees while my waist got hugged from behind.

"Focus..." A whisper awakes me immediately. I nod, slowly.

One more deep vibration. My legs are shaking so badly. I can feel sweats from my head, all through my body. That egg inside me did its job well. I almost lost count of how many times I got jabbed by it.

I scream again. The egg is in full power. Maximum I think. My heart almost burst out. I grip my fingers tight. Liquid drooling from under.

I reached my third for tonight.

My lips got free at least. I pant so hard, I almost lost my breath.

"Happy?" the voice sweetly serenaded my ears. I can't respond properly, just a small nod.

"Words, jellybean... You know how much daddy likes your voice..." my nipples got pinched. I yelp and bite my lips.

"I- am happy... Daddy..."

"Who are you craving for, jellybean?" I almost burst into tears. But I muster my energy and soul.

I will get through this!

"For daddy..." I hear a giggle coming from the person. He kisses my neck, slowly but sensually. I moan softly, feeling aroused.

"Yes. You will get it again... Only for daddy..." he pushes me onto the bed, so I can stick out my bum. I'm scared to death, knowing only one thing.

When he rides, he rides rough!

Soon, the image of a sweet young boy who confessed to me disperse into thin air. My heart ache, as I know there is no way I can be loved or love anyone now.

I feel too dirty for that!
