Everyone thought he was just a spoiled brat who flirted with anyone because he had a powerful father who could give him all the luxuries in life. Contrary to what most people know, Acadia was just a lost soul eager to find love and peace within her. He is a flying eagle, complete with wings and at the peak but he does not know what for and what is the reason of his life. She thought she could tame him, but the guy has it's own principles in life. A man hard to reach and unworthy of his kind. Meeting Seigneur was one of her plans but falling in love with him isn't. She thought that her love for him would save her from her grief but the man only doubled her suffering.

Chapter 1 preparing dinner

Chapter 1

I was burning up while preparing dinner, I want the best for him. The best thing i could ever give as his wife even if there is nothing left of me.

Even in the chaotic world I came from, I still learned to love more than I could give.

More than myself.

I heard his car parked in the garage so I quickly went to the living room to greet him with a kiss.

"Seigneur.." I greeted my husband with a smile.

"Babe!" The woman shouted while carrying the expensive paper bags.

It was obviously from the mall and my husband took it for a walk.

"Yes, hurry up." He ignored me and helped the woman carry her things.

I just bowed and went to the kitchen while talking.

"Dinner is ready." I contained my tears, no I shouldn't cry here.

Not in front of him.

He just looked at me coldly and asked Lian to sit down. He still supported it and peeled the meat.

He takes good care of her, something he never did to me.

"Babe, I want juice." Lian asked and my husband quickly took a pitcher and poured it into a glass.

I was about to turn away, I can't contain my tears anymore. The scene is breaking my heart.

"Stay here Cecelia! Suffer! Does it feel good?!" My scornful husband hums like he's overjoyed to see me struggling.

I held tightly to my hand that was burning because of cooking.

I'm used to this, it shouldn't hurt like this anymore. But it seems like every day it gets worse and worse as if I will be swallowed by so much sadness.

I even heard the two of them laughing while happily eating.

I haven't eaten yet.

My stomach hurt but I just endured it. I'll eat bread later.

"Fix our room, you and Lian can sleep there, sleep on the sofa first." He even held Lian's hand while saying this.

I just bowed and went to my husband's room.

As soon as I was at the door, I started to cry but I just wiped it away and started to move away.

"Cecelia, it's me..." I looked at Nana Loling.

He suddenly hugged me and caressed my back so I couldn't control my emotions anymore.

"Stop..." He comforted me so I felt a little better.

"Thank you..." I told him and we started to make arrangements.

She witnessed everything, everything that happened in this house, my husband's belittling and hurting me.

Well, I deserve this. I guess this is the result of all the sacrifices I made.

You can't really cover a mistake with another mistake, the payoff is greater.

Nanny went out and I was the only one left, I was about to walk out when Seigneur and Lian arrived.

I just bowed and was about to leave when Seigneur stopped me.

"Watch." He grabbed my hair and threw me on the floor. I groaned at the pain of my scalp but I don't think anything would hurt more than the soft and fragile diamond scene if Seigneur treated his partner more than my wife.

He's making love with her and he never made love with me. If there is, it is only because of lust.

"She's a virgin unlike you! Any man who hits on you has already been used!" The husband's speech while inserting his penis into the woman.

Lian was moan!ng and it ripped my heart into pieces. Gathering all my might, I ran out of the house while crying and crushed.

Despite the fact that he repeatedly bullied me, I still love him. Despite all the pain, I still can't leave him.

I went to the garden and lay down on the grass. My heart sank and I just wanted to cry. It's like this, I'm not used to it.

"Yes, I'm no longer v!rg!n when we first..." I whispered to myself while sobbing.

You don't know anything...you don't know everything..

I thought my life would change when you came, I thought the weight I was carrying would be reduced, I thought you would save me from the nightmare I was trying to escape from.

I bit my lower lip, I feel like I'm going to run out of breath because of that.

It's here again...

My anxiety...

All the memories, all the piggish and hurtful words come back to my mind. I held my chest because of the intense pain I felt, I can no longer take it.

"My God! Cecelia, you're bleeding!" I just heard Nana Loling scream before I passed out.

Flashback

I feel that I have been deprived of happiness in this world. Bitterness and pain always, how long will I be like this.

"D-dad!" Only my moans and cries can be heard in the four corners of the room.

"Ghhmm..." My own father is moaning as he reached his cl!max, maybe he's already satisfied with his anmila to me.

My heart almost broke, I was crushed and disgusted with myself. My tears fell one after the other as I looked at the ceiling of my own room. A place that was supposed to be my refuge and resting place but I can't see any good memories but pain, brokenness and hatred.

He slapped my cheek and I could feel the pain.

Full of hatred I looked at my acknowledged father, the first man who would have protected me and be my support but he was the first to destroy my entire humanity.

He grabbed me by the hair and dragged me so I fell onto my own bed, feeling like my back was broken because of that.

He slapped me again so that the corner of my lips bled.

"I told you, didn't I? Fix it if you don't want your mother to kill you." I closed my eyes when I heard, my tears flowed again. My body is numb because of what he did.

I looked at him, pleading. I don't know if he loved Mommy or me or even considered us family.

"I'm s-sorry D-dad.." He tightened his grip on my hair and choked me.

"You don't have a s!lbÂĄ ! You're inul! What I'm asking you to do is so easy, just get better at that Leicestershire but you haven't done it yet!" His voice echoed in the four corners of the room and he strangled me even more. I feel like I'm going to suffocate because of that.

Mommy attended me while whimpering and trying to stop Daddy's hands that were choking me.

Daddy elbowed Mommy so she was holding her stomach because of the pain. I got out of Daddy's stranglehold using my remaining strength and I succeeded and attended to Mommy right away, I feel my body is numb but I can't bear to see my mother in pain.

"You're fat! It's useless to be sloppy! Fix it, seduce Seigneur Abreo Leicestershire! Do anything and everything, even if you sell your soul and body to him, I don't care. If I lose the election I'll kill you both! You understand!" His eyes were glazed over, he even stomped on me so that I moaned.

My vision is blurry, my whole body is hurting, but the pain caused by hating the man is more dominant, which is why my mother and I are suffering.

I just felt Mommy caressing my face and the successive drops of her tears accompanied by soft sobs.

"Stay, Mommy, I promise you...I promise that we will also be free from him...that day will come...I promise.." I was crying and hugging Mommy, it seems that there is no more it will hurt even more to see him struggling.

She's been through a lot, the scene has been like this since I was a child.

When I turned 7 years old, I was raped by my own father, repeatedly hurt when I made a mistake. He controls my life, I can't do anything, he is powerful and looked up to so I have nothing against him.

I wiped the tears that rolled down my cheeks. Putting concealers to hide everything, to hide those bruises especially the marks of his kiss.

I was disgusted with myself, I just wanted to take a knife and if possible, cut the parts that his lips touched.

I was dressed again as if nothing lewd and nothing profanity had happened.

Mommy quietly helped me put on the gown that Daddy was making me wear. I don't know if he still deserves to be called father despite all the things he did to me and Mommy.

My mommy was quiet as if she was deep in thought, but when she looked at me, she tried to smile.

"Everything will be fine Mommy, I promise." I don't know where I got the courage to be positive even though I know there is no hope for our life to be okay.

Mommy just nodded and gave me a kiss on my forehead.

I fixed it quickly because I don't want Daddy to get angry again and he can blame us again. I accept that I am the one he will pity but I can't bear to see my mother in pain.

She's to precious to me, the only person who made me feel loved and accepted in spite of everything and because of so much insult and trauma, mommy could no longer speak and became mute.

She can no longer handle it emotionally and if it wasn't for me, she might have ended her life a long time ago or might not have escaped from my father's mess.

I got into the car and found my personal driver there. Yes, I look very stylish and very rich from the outside. Everyone looks up to me because I was the only daughter of Mayor Amolo Leona and not because I am Cecelia.

Because of my father's name that is attached to me, many respect and have sympathy.

We quickly left the mansion, I was silent and depressed. I don't know how I manage to be so good despite everything, I'm already very good at this field.

Hypocrisy in front of the majority.

When I got there, I went down, I was wearing a black dress that was almost close to my body. It's a tube and my rich breasts are very visible, when I bend down I can see that I'm too short. It exposes my curves, especially my plump butt and my beautiful curves. I'm shrinking myself but there's nothing I can do, I'd rather be like this than get beaten up by Mommy.

I uncomfortably entered. All the cameras were focused on me, the others were there and you could see the obscenity in your eyes. I just sped up to walk even though I almost tripped because my shoes had very high heels.

When I got inside, my eyes looked for Daddy, he was talking to his fellow politicians and others who were famous and big businessmen.

What the heck! This famous apartment doesn't have an elevator? They said the elevator is broken, like I care. My day was already bad, and now my move-in day is ruined too! Life is just so unfair. I immediately looked for my assigned room so I could start arranging my things. I found it quickly and slid my card before turning the handle. But as soon as I started opening the door, I smelled something burning. I realized it was coming from my new place. I hurriedly opened the door fully and looked around to see where the smell was coming from. A man in the kitchen cursed. I couldn't see his face because he was facing away, busy with something. My eyes landed on what he was doing. It was burning! I quickly dropped my suitcase and rushed over to him, covering my nose from the smoke. "W-what's happening here?" I asked in a panic, still covering my nose. He turned to look at me, also covering his nose. "Who are you?" He asked in confusion, but we both stepped back as the flames grew. "Fuck! Fuck*ng fire! I hate cooking with this!" he yelled angrily, fighting the fire. I looked around for something to extinguish the fire and quickly grabbed the fire extinguisher. I used it to put out the flames. The fire was out in no time. I smiled and smirked at the sight of his burnt eggs. Seriously, he couldn't even cook eggs! He gave me a dirty look, and I tried to hold back my laughter because of his appearance, covered in the fire extinguisher foam. "Funny?" "Is everything okay in there?" "Is anyone hurt?" "We're coming in." Voices from outside shouted. I watched as my companion went to the door and opened it. "No one was hurt, everything is fine, thank you," he said quickly before closing the door. He paused and looked at my suitcase. "Ah, that's mine," I said. "No one asked." He replied coldly, shoving his hands in his pockets and walking away. He entered a room and slammed the door. I grabbed a towel from my suitcase and started wiping my face from the extinguisher foam. I couldn't help but laugh at myself and at him. Deep down, I wanted to burst out laughing at his appearance, but still, he was kind of cool, especially with his aura. I turned around when I heard someone cough behind me. It was the guy from earlier. Yeah, maybe he's my roommate. He looked down, making me curious. I glanced down to see what he was looking at. Wait, what? He's looking at my br*ast? No, maybe I'm just imagining things. "You study at H.U?" Reality hit me when I realized he was looking at my ID. I assumed too much, Farah Joy. "Yes," I replied shortly and continued wiping my face as he walked over to the fridge. I put my towel back and turned to see him standing in front of me, drinking a beer. Does he have powers? He appeared out of nowhere! "You forgot to use 'sir' when addressing me, Lady Farah." Wait, how does he know my name? I haven't even told him! And why should I call him 'sir'? Who is he? "I saw your name on your ID, woman. Don't overthink it," he said seriously before finishing his drink. I was wrong again, Farah Joy! I wanted to slap myself. "Oh, haha... haha! Right!" I said awkwardly, scratching my head. "B-but why do I need to call you 'sir'? Who are you?" I asked boldly. He frowned and suddenly laughed. Gosh, his laugh drives me crazy! I snapped back to reality when he leaned close to my ear and whispered something that made my eyes widen and almost drop my p*nty. "Well, I'm Kevin Tran." I felt his soft lips on my ear, gently biting it. He stepped back and left. "K-Kevin T-Tran? The famous professor? Gosh, my crush!" I whispered as he walked away. What kind of apartment is this? I met my crush—I mean, the most famous professor I've ever known. Sir Kevin. I have a crush on him too!! Ghoddd!!

I am here standing in front of my boyfriend's apartment, carrying gifts and food. Today is our 4th anniversary. We started dating when I was in 12th grade and he was a freshman in college. Now, he has graduated, and I am a 4th-year nursing student. I start knocking, and after a while, the door opens. "Surprise, love!" I happily greet him, but I notice that he doesn't look happy. "Love? Are you okay?" I ask. "Yeah, come in," he says, so I walk in. I look around, and it's dark. There are no lights on. His anxiety and trauma must have returned; he was like this when his mom passed away. I set the food on the table. "Love, are you okay?" I ask again. "Yeah," he says as he sits on the sofa, rubbing his head. I approach him and sit beside him. "Do you want me to massage you?" I ask, reaching out to touch him, but he moves away. "I have to tell you something," he says. Suddenly, I feel nervous. Please, don't let it be something bad. "Let's go out tomorrow. I didn’t get a gift for today," he says, and my anxiety is replaced with happiness. "Okay, love!" I say cheerfully. "For today, I want you to go home and rest. Let's meet tomorrow. I want to be alone," he says, which hurts my heart again. I stand up slowly. "O-okay, love," I say, and as I am about to leave, he suddenly hugs me from behind. "Happy anniversary, take care," he says and kisses my cheek before letting go. I smile and leave his apartment. Author's POV After his girlfriend leaves, his father suddenly calls. Before answering, he sighs deeply. [When is your flight?] "Monday," he coldly replies. [You better be ready. Remember what your mom said to you before she died.] "I remember that. You don't need to say it," he says in a very cold voice. [You're leaving for America on Monday, and you haven’t told your girlfriend yet, right?] He doesn't respond because he knows his father disapproves of his girlfriend. [Spend your last day with her, because it will be her last time spending a day with you.] He doesn't say anything and ends the call. He knows he loves his girlfriend deeply, but he made a promise to his mother. ‘Son, I know you will become like me, a famous model and actress. You must become a famous model and actor, okay? Even though I know I won't live long, I know you will fulfill my wish. I want you to be known by everyone because I know I have lacked so much for you. I’m sorry, son, because your mom got sick.’ His mother had leukemia and passed away when he was only six years old. Now he wants to fulfill her wish. The only problem is his girlfriend, who is still in the Philippines. Carmella's POV I woke up early because I am so excited about today! We're going out, ahhh!! It's Sunday, so no classes,!

I'm also wearing a silver necklace he gave me on our first anniversary. After a while, a car stops in front of me. I smile as he gets out and opens the door for me. I get in and fix myself, but I feel a bit nervous today for some reason, bwahaha. He is wearing a maroon turtleneck, a long black blazer, and black pants. Wow, he looks so handsome.

Three black cars were chasing a taxi. The taxi driver tried to speed up despite knowing it was dangerous. Other vehicles complained about their speed due to their sudden overtakes. However, the three black cars didn’t care. Their only focus was the woman inside the taxi. “ZIEYAH! STOP THAT FUCKING TAXI!!” shouted the man leading the two other black cars while firing his gun. His throat nearly burst from the intensity of his shouting. **Zieyah Nicole Luxqinne’s Point of View:** I bowed my head, covering my ears from the loud gunshots. H-he really won’t leave me alone! “Miss! This is too dangerous, we might get hurt! Let’s just stop!” pleaded the taxi driver, who was unwittingly dragged into this mess. “N-no, sir!! He’ll kill me if he catches me!! It’ll be the end for me if he catches me. Please, sir! Drive faster!” I stammered and begged, tears streaming down my face along with cold sweat from fear. My voice was nearly hoarse from the terror. My whole body trembled, and I couldn’t explain the feeling coursing through my entire system—fear. I was terrified of being caught by him. I could also sense the driver’s fear. After all, he got involved because of me! This is my fault! Moments later, we heard another gunshot, and this time, it hit some part of the taxi, causing it to swerve. “They shot the tire!” shouted the driver, desperately trying to brake. The taxi spun around, and I clung tightly to the side of the car. The noise of the car tires skidding was deafening as the driver tried to bring the car to a halt.

"Good morning, Elle!" Eri greeted me promptly. "Morning," I mumbled shortly and sat in my chair. He really annoys me! Well, if you're asking who I’m referring to, it's just my cold, ungentlemanly husband. Hmp, he's lucky I love him. Yes, I'm married and I have feelings for him, although it’s just an arranged marriage. "Ohh? What happened to you? Why do you look like the sky and earth fell on you? Did you have another fight with your husband? Haha," Cia teased and moved to the chair next to mine. I didn't bother to answer her goddamn question and just rolled my eyes instead. I looked at Xyra, who was busy on her phone. She’s probably stalking Kuya Axel again. "Hey, Elle!" I scowled as I remembered what my dear husband did again— "ASTHERIELLE LOUISVILLE!!!" I jumped and snapped back to reality when Cia shouted my full name. I glared at her, but she just made a peace sign. "Are you trying to make me deaf, huh, woman?" I asked irritably, but she just rolled her eyes at me. "We’ve been calling you for a while, but it looks like you’re busy daydreaming," Eri said, moving closer to Xyra, who was still busy on her phone and smiling. I just pouted and said sorry. "Why are you spacing out? Is there a problem?" Cia asked. I just shook my head and nudged Xyra. "What?" she asked in confusion, seemingly unaware of what was happening around her. "Ouch! Damn," she complained when Cia smacked her on the head, glaring at her. They ended up chasing each other like children. Eri and I just shook our heads.

"Okay class! That's all for today! Goodbye," said our professor as he gathered his things. I quickly tidied up Jay's stuff. Yes, I know his name—it's Jay. I put the tissue in his bag; he can throw it away later. He adjusted his pants. As soon as the professor left, our classmates stood up, and Jay quickly stood and pulled me outside. He seemed eager. Hahaha. He took me to the girls' restroom. Luckily, no one was inside, so we could enter freely. I pulled him into the farthest cubicle and quickly shut the door. He pinned me against the wall and kissed me hungrily. I returned his kiss, feeling his hand slowly glide up to my chest. "Hmp!" I moaned when he squeezed one of them. He moved quickly and urgently, so I broke away from his kiss. "Easy, babe. Relax!" I said, laughing as I stroked his arm to calm him down. He laughed at himself too. "I want you," he said huskily, lust and hunger visible in his eyes. I smiled at him and pulled his neck for another passionate kiss. His hands roamed my chest and butt. Our kiss was interrupted by my phone ringing. I pushed him away to see who was calling. It was Reign, my best friend and classmate. "What?" I answered. Jay continued kissing my neck, his hand still exploring. [Our fun time is interrupted. Another professor is coming in for our substitute class. Hurry up.] She hung up frantically. I frowned and pushed Jay to stop him from kissing me. "Next time. I still a class," I said before leaving him in there

I received a pornographic video. "Do you like this?" The man speaking in the video is my husband, Mark, whom I haven't seen for several months. He is naked, his shirt and pants scattered on the ground, thrusting forcefully on a woman whose face I can't see, her plump and round breasts bouncing vigorously. I can clearly hear the slapping sounds in the video, mixed with lustful moans and grunts. "Yes, yes, fuck me hard, baby," the woman screams ecstatically in response. "You naughty girl!" Mark stands up and flips her over, slapping her buttocks as he speaks. "Stick your ass up!" The woman giggles, turns around, sways her buttocks, and kneels on the bed. I feel like someone has poured a bucket of ice water on my head. It's bad enough that my husband is having an affair, but what's worse is that the other woman is my own sister, Bella. ************************************************************************************************************************ “I want to get a divorce, Mark,” I repeated myself in case he didn't hear me the first time—even though I knew he'd heard me clearly. He stared at me with a frown before answering coldly, "It's not up to you! I'm very busy, don't waste my time with such boring topics, or try to attract my attention!" The last thing I was going to do was argue or bicker with him. "I will have the lawyer send you the divorce agreement," was all I said, as calmly as I could muster. He didn't even say another word after that and just went through the door he'd been standing in front of, slamming it harshly behind him. My eyes lingered on the knob of the door a bit absentmindedly before I pulled the wedding ring off my finger and placed it on the table. I grabbed my suitcase, which I'd already had my things packed in and headed out of the house.
