CHAPTER 5: You belong with me
Denise’s father was preparing for the meal, and Mike’s mother was helping. While Denise, Mike, and Richard sat in the living room. It was very silent when Mike spoke out.
“If it is okay with you, Richard, I’d want to ask who invited you here. Have you forgotten that you are not allowed to visit my girl’s home?” He said as he tried to calm himself while staring at him.
Richard grinned and walked up to Denise.
“Why? is she yours? Last time I checked, you are only her best friend, not her lover, so…”
Richard said as he laughed and wrapped his arm around Denise’s waist, winking at her. Denise
muttered quietly as he looked at Mike, “Oh my gosh, I’m absolutely in trouble.”
Mike’s mother and Denise’s father walked out of the kitchen before anything could happen. “Guys, it’s time for dinner, Mike. I hope you’re being nice “Mike’s mother stated. “I’m always nice, mom always,” he responded, his gaze fixed on Denise. “Please don’t take it personally, I didn’t mean it.” She begged him to listen to her. They all stood up and started walking towards the kitchen when suddenly she was dragged back and pushed against the wall. It was her best friend, Mike.
“Do you enjoy teasing me, my Princess? Do you want to see me erupt with envious rage? “Denise shivered in fear as he said it and stared angrily at her.
” Please don’t take it personally, I didn’t mean it.” She begged him to listen to her. She feels like a punk right now. “Please what? What exactly is it, Princess? Tell me what you want” He said in a lustful voice as he grasped her waist and began to caress her neck. “Please don’t do this; I swear I will do everything you want as long as you don’t hurt him, okay? Mike, you are the only one I love “She said hoping that it works because she knows Mike will do something terrible against Richard. She needs to do something that can calm him.
Mike pulled her in closer and kissed her on the lips down to her neck. Denise tried her hardest not to moan, but she couldn’t stop herself. Mike whispered, “Soon, my Princess, I shall mark you, and you will be mine forever,” and it chilled down her ridge. Then he went into the kitchen, and she stayed there for a bit, trying to calm down herself. Later, she walked to the kitchen to gather herself, as she realize that she needs to inform her father about Mike’s plans for her. Mike, on the other hand, obstructed her by pulling out a chair when Mike felt that she had a plan, telling what happened between them. “Sit with me, my Princess,” he said at her with a smile on his face. Denise returned the smile and sat down, she was furious that he had ruined her plan.
Denise cast a glance over to her father, who had taken a seat on the opposite side of the table. Mike sat next to Denise, while Richard sat on the opposite side. Mike takes notice of her and pulls her chair closer to his while wrapping his arms around her waist.
“So, what do we do now, guys?” Martina
replied, “I’ll-,” but she was interrupted by Mike, “Richard should say something uncle, he is the new guest,” he said grinning at Richard but Richard looked a little bit nervous.
Denise held his hand and glanced at him as he shuddered. “It’s fine,” she responded, smiling at him. Richard lowered his head and began praying, as did the rest of the group.
Denise was startled When he feel Mike’s hand reach up to her body causing her to leap up and moan. “Are you all right, Denise?” Mike’s mother asked. Everyone was staring at her, and when she turned to look at Mike, he was beaming. “F*ck it’s embarrassing,” she mumbled quietly. “Ah yes, I-I’m okay.” She added while
Richard gazed at Mike as he ended his prayer.
Then they began to eat, and Mike decided to forage her the entire while. Denise was apprehensive. His mother and father are adoring them, but only if they realize how horrible Mike is.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“So, Mr. Guanzon, what is your age? Denise informed me that you had recently moved here “Denise’s father said, attempting to strike up a conversation. Richard smiled at Denise’s father before he respond.
“I’m an 18-year-old and I moved here from Canada. My father has a business here in the Philippines, so I guess I will have to learn the Pilipino way,” he explained, and Denise’s father merely nodded, “Dad, I need to use the restroom,” she said as her father nodded and she stood up. Then, Mike followed her. “Hon, where are you going?” Mike’s mother asked. “I’m going to get some fresh air outdoors on the back porch.” He said as he continued to walk.
“What in the world is he up to?” Denise muttered as she entered the bathroom.

Denise went to the bathroom, like she always did, and shut and locked the door. She closed her eyes and faced the mirror.
“I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. Why can’t he understand that I don’t like him? I only see him as an older brother because he has always protected me since we were children, but now he is like a psychopath. He’s causing me pain. He’s pressuring me to do things I don’t want to do,” She muttered something in her head. Mike was standing behind her with that sneer on his face as she opened her eyes.
He put his hand on her mouth and shoved his full weight against her before she could scream. “Shhhh… Do you want them to hear you, my princess?” He kissed her earlobe softly as he whispered in her ear. She wants to scream. So that everyone will know what a horrible person her best friend is.
She murmured into his grasp, “Please Mike, let me go.” But he merely tightens his grip on her, causing her to moan fiercely.
