22: Honeymoon
When Alexa regained consciousness, she did not expect to wake up inside the church. Gael, Hirro and Tim left Alexa inside the church, lying in the last row of chairs. After they left the maiden there they quickly went to the church where the wedding of their friend Davien would be held. Fortunately, they are still chasing.
"What the ... urgh!" Alexa landed on her head as she got up and scratched her head. Then she remembered the dizziness feeling when Gael injected something on her arms.
Gael injected me a sleeping drug! Her thought wasn't wrong because that's exactly what Gael did. The wedding! Davien's wedding! I'm supposed to stop it! Panicking spiked his mind.
Alexa grabbed her phone, she checked the time and it reads as 6:45 P.M. He quickly gathered his belongings and ran out of the church. Because he was afraid, he would inevitably be disturbed by the praying nuns. Her heels made a loud tak-tak-tak sound and it echoes in the church. Her noisy gestures earned glare from the nuns. The noise he made was a kind of insult.
But no matter how hateful glares she gets from the nun, Alexa doesn't care anymore. All he wanted at the very moment was to stop what he called Davien's 'madness'. Where the bloddy hell is she? That was his question. He doesn't know where he is. To locate her spot, she picked her phone again. Because she follows Davien's friends on their social media accounts, Alexa saw the notification that Hirro went live on Facebook. That's what's on his notification panel.
She clicked the notification and it took her to a scene that not only broke her heart. He was also very angry. The caption says: "Davien and Avah's wedding. Congratulations to the newly wed!"
Alexa watched the video. A clip where Davien unfolds the woman's veil, and he kissed her not just once. But twice! Alexa didn't care if she was in front of the church because she started shouting there like a market woman and had no high school education.

In a hotel the wedding reception was held. Because Divina actually provided money for Davien's wedding, she entered into a contract with a Van Company. All guests are van to the hotel where the wedding celebration will be held. All the nuns and Avah"s companions in the church were mostly occupied by six vans. But of course, Davien has more relatives.
Since the wedding was held in the afternoon, the after party started at eight o'clock. Avah and Davien have not been exchanged because the celebration will only last two hours. The first part of the party is the dinner of the guests as well as the couple. After that was the first slice of the wedding cake that was almost as tall as a five -year -old child because of its size. Avah was confused when she handed Davien a cake while Davien was staring at Avah from the moment they arrived at the reception. They also did the traditional sipping of wine while their arms are crossed to each other.
Because it is a tradition in the Philippines for the newlyweds to dance and they will be given money, Divina pulled her son and Avah to the middle of the dance floor. Then there is the music that prevails in the area.
Davien grips on Avah's waist tightly. If he could hold his wife's waist, he would seem to escape. He is staring straight into her eyes. Her tantalizing eyes that became even more painful because of the long eyelashes placed on her eyelid. Davien will never tire of admitting to himself how beautiful the wife is.
Davien pulled Avah closer to him. He took Avah's hand and hung it on his shoulder, then he put his hand back on his wife's waist.
"Davien, did you forget I'm pregnant? The tightness of your hold on my waist," Avah moaned because maybe Davien's still possessiveness was the reason for the loss of their child.
"No. I haven't forgotten that you're bearing my child." Davien replied while still staring at Avah's face. He was then lost.
Do i have dirt in my face? Why is he staring at me like this? Avah asks herself. He shifted his gaze. It was only then that he noticed Davien's mother who had been taking a picture of them earlier. They also started to flood the dance floor. Almost all the blue and yellow bills are hanging on the new couple.
"You're not going back to that place," Davien whispered.
Avah's eyebrows and forehead furrowed. He looked up to see his wife. Avah asked, "what do you mean?"
"That you will live with me. On our house. And at least I'll watch over you while you're pregnant. You're also leaving your job. I can provide for us." He said firmly. It was as if Avah would hit the wall if she went against whatever Davien wanted.
"But I have to go back there to get my things,"
"You don't need them. I can buy new for you. Everything that you want, just name it." Davien answered quickly.
"I do not want." Avah spoke loudly.
"You do not want?" Davien held his brow high. He was irritated because Avah is disobeying him.
"My bibles are there, all of them are special to me so I don't want to. I'll take them." Davien realized. Of course, she married someone who had strong faith in God.
"Okay, tomorrow. I'll go with you." Avah objected but Davien ended the conversation when he said that if he was not with her he would forget his valuables.
It was about ten o'clock in the evening when the party ended. At only nine o'clock, Mother Segunda left with other colleagues. Davien was using his Lamborghini when the two of them went home. With no assistant, it was Davien who opened and closed the gate.
Starting tonight, he is no longer the sole owner of the house. He can no longer sleep alone in his room, in his bed. Everything has changed. And Davien like those changes. He is so looking forward to the future nights that he can be with his wife in the same bed. By just thinking about it, he became sexually active again.
Davien was carrying Avah when he let his wife into their room. But before they reached the second floor safely, they went through another argument because Avah tried to get down but Davien didn't want to let her go. Whatever Avah refused, and insisted on walking, the husband seemed deaf because he pretended to hear nothing.
As soon as Davien closed the bedroom door, he took big steps as he approached Avah. He squeezed his wife's waist and pressed a kiss to Avah.
"Shall we consummate our wedding?" he asked hoarsely then added, "Oo nga pala't nauna na ang honeymoon keysa sa wedding. But I guess I wouldn't let this night pass without happening." He said with a wicked smile and then he assaulted Avah's lips once again. But this time, Avah started responding on his kiss.
23: Consummating Their Marriage
Davien is suffocating Avah with his deep and penetrating kiss. His hands around her waist is too tight, he's pinning her under his control. Even though the husband is not struggling, Davien applies force to his embrace. Maybe because Avah suddenly regained consciousness and suddenly pushed her.
It's better to be secure the heat than bathing with a cold water on their first night as husband and wife. He moved his tongue inside of her mouth, he discovers every millimeter part of Avah's mouth. Davien plays his tongue with hers, dancing together and tasting each other.
Even though they kissed a few times, Avah still didn't know. that fact only added excitement on Davien's urging need. It is different when the husband is innocent. It was different than he thought. All of Davien's exes aren't innocent and virgin when he claimed them. That includes Alexa. But Davien thought that was better and at least they were good at warming up his bed. But thinking that someone else's tasted Avah angers him. He wants his wife to be his only. That's why she married it as if she had the legal right to treat it to men who might surround her.
Davien moved his hands. From her waist up to her back. He trace the spaghetti strap of Avah's wedding gown. When he found it, Davien pulled the lace and slowly, he unfolded her gown. The white fabric loosened. The wedding gown loosened quickly. Honestly speaking, it was Divina who ordered the seamstress to sew that gown like that. She chose that style because she wanted it to be easy to strip because the mother already had an idea of what would happen to the two of them.
When the gown loosened up, Davien slowly took off the gown. He started with the thin sleeve. He slides it off her shoulder in a very sexy way. While stripping of the gown, Davien trails off small and wet kisses on her bare skin making her shiver in response.
Avah never complained again. Is it still time for them to be fully married? And another. Although she is ashamed to admit, she also likes what her husband is doing. The effect he holds on his body is strange. He seemed to be tickled, it was strange to feel that he didn't expect to like it later.
"You are the sexiest pregnant I have ever seen in the entire world," Davien praised her in a husky tone. His kisses never end. He tastes every inch of her shoulder, touches her delicate skin, squeezes her smooth flesh and imagine Avah to the extent of nudity.
Because the chest band of the gown was thick, Avah didn't wear a bra anymore. That was also Divina's suggestion because they were together in the hotel room. The three of them are Daniel's together. Because she ain't wearing anything underneath that gown except of course to her lacy panty, when Davien pulled down the gown and when it falls on the ground, Avah's body was exposed in the thin and cold air. The baby bump in her tummy made Davien heart flip.
Hang on, baby. Daddy won't be able to do this in the near months. So please, just behave in mommy's womb. Davien said to himself, as if he is talking to his unidentified child.
Because Avah was not used to being naked in front of a man, or even in front of her husband, she automatically covered her chest with her arms and hands. He rubbed it while his cheek was almost on fire and glowing from the extreme heat.
The side lips of Davien twitched. He will never tire of admiring his wife because of her innocence. She will be a perfect wife, mother and partner for life that Davien will never trade for anyone. He was so addicted to her and he cannot deny the fact that by simply looking at her, seeing her is enough to be made and complete his day.
Davien quickly removed his suit and bow. He pulled Avah for a kiss again. He crushed her body against his. Davien's right arm is on her nape, pulling her close to make the kiss deep like a wishing well. His other hand are busy unbuttoning his white sleeve. Now that he thinks of it, it seems like a blessing that Alexa broke up with him.
Even though the last woman he loved disappeared, someone took over. Not just one because two. Avah and their future child.
When Davien reached the last button, he hurriedly stripped his sleeve off and tossed it in the air. He grabbed the wife by her waist and lifted her.
"Wrap your legs around my body, baby ..." Davien whispered. She caught her breath because it took a while before she released her husband's remains. To make her body comfortable, Avah rubbed her beautiful pair of thighs on Davien's body.
Soon enough, Avah can feel the mattress against her bare back. Davien laid her down on the bed, he was on top of her. Towering her wife while he control the dominance and the situation.
"You have the most precious lips in the world, Avah. I will never get tired of kissing you." Davien admitted as he claimed her lips again.
Avah can feel the budge beneath his pants. It is poking her belly, but she didn't fount it uncomfortable just like before. It is actually exciting her. Maybe because it wasn't their first night, it helped to reduce Avah's discomfort a little.
While locked to each other's lips, Davien forcefully takes off his pants. And when he successfully unzipped his pants, he pulled it down together with his underwear. His length was once again freed.
After kicking off the rest of his clothing, Davien go back to Avah's top. He claimed her lips again as he made his way down ... down to where he used to enter. He slide his finger inside of her lacy panty and found her soaked wet.
"So ready for me, little wife ..." Davien smiled devilishly.
"D-Davien ... b-I'm pregnant ..." Avah had to remind him that because she was afraid that what they would do alone might harm the child.
"Don't worry, I never forgotten it. I will never do anything that'll harm my baby. I will have myself control ... but I can't promise you that we will stop early." Davien's mischievous promise.
He pulled the last clothing on Avah's body and he didn't waste a minute. Davien slid his length of her and she was tight as ever that he needed to stop momentarily so she can adjust. After a moment, Davien started rocking his body against his wife.
"You are mine, Avah. You're mine." He said with finality as he continues consummating their marriage.
24: Noah Sebastian
The Night in the Wedding Reception.
Alexa found the location of the hotel where the reception of Davien's wedding is currently taking place. He saw that in Gael"s post. Crying, he walked to the hotel. What he immediately saw were Hirro and Tim coming out of that time to smoke.
"Alexa! What are you doing here?" Hirro asked in surprise.
"Where is Davien? I need to talk to him please! Let Davien out, we need to talk! We need to fix our relationship." Alexa felt sorry for the two young men.
"Alexa, stop it please. Respect Davien's wedding. He is happy now. Can you just be happy for him as well?" Tim said that he was a little annoyed with Alexa's desperation.
Alexa started making a scene outside the room. Hirro and Tim don't let him in. The noises from the front door caught Divina's attention so she went there to find out what was happening. Divina's blood boiled quickly when she saw her son's cursed ex -girlfriend.
"Tita Divina! Please help me! Please help me convince Davien. Please Tita!" Alexa plea as she grabbed the older woman's hand decorated with fancy jewelry.
Divina gets furious because of what the maiden says. She harshly shook her hands away.
"Stop your foolishness, Alexa! Aren't you the reason you two broke up? Oh, I should be thankful!" Divina laughed impulsively. "Thank you so much, Alexa. I'm so grateful that you broke my son's heart. But you don't need to fix it, no need for that. Not anymore because Avah is already there, Avah has already arranged the life of My child. They are a happy couple now. And if you do anything to ruin their life, I tell you that I will not remain silent. You will pay for it and you will have to go against me. "
Alexa often abused Divina when they were still with her child. It's either she will roll her eyes, squirm or raise her voice, that's why Divina's accumulated anger seemed to explode that night.
"Leave. At. Once." Divina said word by word as she glared at Alexa.

"Dear passengers, please fasten your seat-belt as we get ready for our arrival at Ninoy Aquino International Airport, Terminal 3. I repeat, please fasten your seat-belt as we get ready for our arrival at Ninoy Aquino International Airport, Terminal 3 "Thank you."
Noah repeatedly heard the Pilot of the first-class airplane he flew from New York, USA to the Philippines.
Noah Sebastian, he is Davien's stepbrother who until now did not know each other. Davien was only a year old when his father got pregnant with another woman, the baby was Noah. Divina's heart was almost broken when her husband apparently betrayed her. But love can make a person martyr. Yes, Divina became a martyr and accepted her husband again. He thought they were the ones his wife had chosen but years passed, he left them and went with Noah's mother.
Noah is just like Davien, a Phil-Am. Noah's mother is also Filipina. Beautiful woman which made Noah just as good looking as Davien. The two were almost the same height, they had their father's height. Divina no longer said the children had a stepbrother. For what else? To break their hearts even more? Somehow, Divina didn't want the hearts of the two children to be filled with anger.
Noah migrated to the Philippines because he was getting tired of New York. The diverse culture in New York is corrupting his mind. Unlike in the Philippines, there are not just young people fighting on the streets. If he prefers race, he will choose Filipino blood.
Noah was raised fluent in the Tagalog language so it would not be difficult for him to adjust to the Philippines.
After his arrival to NAIA, he exited the airport and he met up with Grab taxi driver whom he contracted. After a long ride to Manila City, one of the most productive places in the Philippines because it is the Capital City, the driver dropped him off at a condominium where he booked a room online. Noah doesn't waste money and he doesn't need an oversized pad just to brag. He is practical so he will only buy a good for one bachelor condo.
His first stop was in the front desk. He informed the clerk ladies that he was the one who booked for a pad through online. The necks of the women working in the condo were almost broken because of the strange handsomeness of the young man. He got a very broad shoulder, undeniably smooth and fair skin, pink lips, high nose, his army cut hair that look so clean and professional. It"s denim pants, white sneakers and a white shirt that really scratch the beauty of the body.
Almost all the women were thrilled as he passed by. The same reaction every time Davien walks.
Noah let the staff bring his language in his pad. He walked towards the elevator and waited for the lift. He rode the elevator alone, just as about closing the double door lift, a woman ran towards saying, "just a minute!"
Avah put her hands in between the double door of the elevator. When the automatic device senses it, it automatically opens large.
Avah smiled on the man who was disturbed. Noah's eyes suddenly fixed on her. He thought he just saw an angel. Very nice girl. Long hair and pitch black. No facial art and body ornaments.
"I'm sorry," Avah muttered with a small apologetic smile.
Noah saw the oncoming delivery guy with a cart being pushed as if there were only foods.
"Excuse me!!" the delivery guy's papanic shout. Noah immediately grabbed Avah's hand, he pulled the woman close and just as about crashing the cart to the woman, Avah was already in his arms. He saved the girl from colliding with the cart.
"You need to be careful when you're doing your job!" Noah scolded the man who had lost control of pushing earlier.
"I-I'm sorry, sir. I didn't hit ma'am on purpose." said the man he thought the two were together.
Suddenly the two were separated from each other. Avah quickly slipped out of the man's arm and stood up straight.
Avah smiled at the guy and said gently, "That's okay brother. It's also my fault. I'm blocking the way."
Noah watched the woman in mused. If he was in New York, the contents of the cart would have been scattered, the man would have been fired and the victim would have been furious. But this woman is different. All of her features yells kindness. Noah was intrigued.
He doesn't notice that his gaze is fixed on the woman until she looks up at him. Their eyes locked. With a kind smile on her face, Avah said, "thank you for saving me."
That's when the elevator opened without Noah noticing that it was running.
"All right, ha." Avah said goodbye to the two men in the elevator. Then she made her way to Melanie's condo unit. It's his birthday and he wants to visit his friend. The last time they met was when they married Davien which is already a week ago.
Noah stare at the door where she exited. That was the first time he was attracted to a woman whose body was wrapped tightly. What he meant was innocent and purely beautiful inside and out.
To be continued...
