"P-please d-don't," I said to him fearfully. "Uh huh, let me enjoy tonight, baby," he whispered in my ear. Tears streamed down my face as my body trembled from his presence. I never wanted to wear this to our prom. I didn't choose this. I should have refused back then so none of this would have happened. I knew he'd be angry seeing me in this outfit, but we ran out of time, so I couldn't argue anymore. "Please, Kairus, d-don't, s-stop, please," I begged him. "Shhh, don't test my patience, baby. You know what I can do, right?" he grinned. "N-no, p-please," I cried. "The more you beg, the more I want you," he smirked. He's Kairus Jei Styles, the son of the owner of my school, and he's the bad boy everyone fears. He has friends who are also feared at Styles University. He's the man who raped me and turned my four years in their school into a living hell. I'm Allysiah Quin De Villa, and I was 17 years old when Kairus took control of my life. He was 20 at the time, and I later discovered that he was a terrifying psycho bad boy.
Chapter 1
ALLYSIAH'S POV
Good morning, I'm Allysiah Quin De Villa, 17 years old this year. I grew up in the province of La Union, in the municipality of Rosario. I was raised in hardship because my parents are farmers.
To lift them out of poverty, I focused on my studies because that's the only way I can repay them.
This year, I'm heading to college. It may seem odd at my age, but I started school early, so at 17, I'm already going to college.
Since the course I want isn't available in our province, I decided to study in the city.
To lessen the financial burden on my parents, I took an entrance exam for a scholarship at Styles University. Fortunately, I passed.
However, I haven't told my parents yet because I wanted to be sure I passed the scholarship exam first.
When my parents arrived home from the farm, I greeted them immediately and took their hand for a blessing.
"Mano po, Tay. Mano po, Nay," I said.
"Is your sister home yet?" my mom asked.
"She's staying at her classmate's house tonight to work on a project," I answered.
"I see," my mom replied.
After that, they went inside, and I prepared our dinner since it was already getting dark when they arrived.
"Nay, Tay, let's eat," I called out.
Since I'm the one left at home, I handle the cleaning and cooking.
Once they sat down, we started eating. While we were eating, I brought up the topic of my plans to study in the city.
"Nay, Tay, I have something to tell you," I said.
"What is it?" my mom asked.
"Well, you know that I've been planning to study in the city for college, right?" I started.
They both looked at each other.
"Yes," my mom said.
"Well, I passed a scholarship at a university there, so I don't want to miss the opportunity," I explained.
"Really, dear? You passed?" my dad asked.
"Yes, I did," I said.
"That's wonderful, you're really smart!" my dad exclaimed.
"I'm happy too, dear, but are you sure about this?" my mom asked.
"Yes, I'm sure," I replied.
"But you know there are many crimes in the city, right? It's not that I don't want you to go, but I'm worried, especially since you'll be on your own," my mom said.
"Nay, Tay, I'll be fine. The university has dorms, and it's safe there. The dorm and meals are free, and the school has strict rules, so it's safe," I reassured them.
When I passed, I researched the school, and I'm confident that I'll be safe there since everything is free for scholars.
They only accept three scholars per year, and the treatment in the dorms is equal-whether you're rich or poor, everyone gets the same amenities.
"That's good to hear," my dad said.
"I feel more at ease now after hearing that," my mom added.
"Alright then, let's eat," I said.
We continued eating until we were done. I washed the dishes since my parents were tired and needed to bathe. I didn't have anything else to do, so I took care of it.
I have a younger sister who wanted to help me, but I didn't let her since her classmate had called earlier, and they were working on a project.
The next day, I woke up early to prepare breakfast since my parents had to leave again.
After cooking, I set the food on the table and made myself some coffee. I stepped outside to enjoy the view of the sunrise.
A few minutes later, I went back inside just as my parents woke up. We sat down and ate breakfast together.
Afterward, my parents prepared to leave for the farm, and once again, I was left alone at home.
While passing the time under the shade of the mango tree, I suddenly got a phone call. When I checked, it was from an unknown number, but I answered it anyway.
"Hello," I said.
"Hello, ma'am, good morning. Is this Allysiah Quin De Villa?" the person on the other line asked.
"Yes, it's me. May I ask what this is about?" I replied.
"I just wanted to inform you that classes at Styles University will begin in three weeks, and you should be at the school dorm before the semester starts. Any questions, ma'am?" the person asked.
"Where can I ask for help once I arrive? It's my first time entering Styles University," I said.
"You can ask the campus guard, and they can assist you. It's part of their job to help new students," the person explained.
"Alright, thank you, ma'am," I said.
"Okay, bye," she said.
I hung up and thought to myself, "Only three weeks left before classes start."
I should probably inform my parents so they know that I'll be leaving earlier than expected.
In the afternoon, I busied myself with house chores, and when it got dark, my sister and parents came home.
As usual, I greeted them and served dinner on the table so we could eat.
"Nay, Tay, it's only three weeks until classes start," I said.
"When are you leaving?" my mom asked.
"Probably Friday, before the three weeks are up," I answered.
"I see, we'll try to give you some money," my dad said.
"Ate, you're not studying here?" my sister Allyson asked.
"No," I replied.
"Hmmm," she simply said.
"Don't worry, I'll call you," I assured her.
"Still," Allyson pouted.
"It's necessary, you know? It would be a waste if I didn't take the scholarship," I explained.
She's only 11 years old, so it's understandable that she'd feel sad since we're quite close.
When we finished eating, Allyson offered to do the dishes. She helps me with house chores because our parents leave early and come home late.
Even though I'll be leaving, there will still be someone to help my parents. It's sad, but I know I can do it.
This is all for my family's future, so nothing will be too hard for me. Haha. Since she's washing the dishes, I decided to step outside and get some fresh air. My parents were already resting.
After a few minutes, Allyson came out and sat with me.
"Ate, are you really sure about this?" she asked.
"Yes, I am," I replied.
"But Ate, you might get bullied there, especially since you're a nerd," she said.
"You've been reading too much Wattpad, Allyson," I chuckled.
"Ate, come on. Bullying is common in the city," she insisted.
"Don't worry, I can take care of myself," I said.
"Hmmm, just don't let anyone push you around, okay? Even if you're a nerd, you're still pretty. It's just those glasses that make you look nerdy," she said.
"Of course. We're beautiful, so we shouldn't let anyone treat us badly," I said with a smile.
I hugged her, and we decided to go to bed since it was already late.
Many weeks have passed, and today is the day I leave our province. I'm currently at the bus station heading to Tarlac, where I will catch another bus to Manila.
My parents came with me, and I already feel sad. But my sibling is still there, and I spoke to them last night.
While waiting for my bus, I said my goodbyes and hugged them tightly.
When the bus arrived, I got on and didn't look back because I knew it would only make me miss them more.
As the bus started moving, tears welled up in my eyes, and I quickly wiped them away before sitting properly.
After a few hours, we arrived in Tarlac. I searched for the terminal to catch the bus to Manila.
Once I found it, I boarded the bus and updated my parents. Then, I decided to take a nap.
After a few more hours, I finally arrived in Manila. I asked around for directions to Styles University since that's where my dorm is. The person who called me earlier said I should head straight there. After getting the directions I needed, I took a jeepney.
In just a few minutes, I arrived at the school where I'll be studying. Once I got off the jeepney, I approached the guard.
"Excuse me, sir, I'm new here. Can you tell me where the dorm is?" I asked.
"Let me show you, ma'am," the guard replied.
"Thank you," I said.
We started walking, and I followed him. As we walked, I glanced around the school and thought to myself, it really is beautiful here.
"We're here, ma'am. Just approach that lady over there, and she'll give you the key to your dorm," the guard said.
"Okay, thank you very much," I replied gratefully.
I walked over to the lady and introduced myself as a new student.
"What's your name?" she asked.
"Allysiah Quin De Villa," I answered.
"Just a moment," she said.
After waiting for a few minutes, she finally handed me the key.
"You're in dorm number 20. Here's your key," she said.
"Thank you," I said.
"When you open your dorm, you'll see the dorm rules posted inside, along with your schedule. As for your uniform, it might arrive next week," she explained.
"Alright, thanks again," I said.
I then headed off to find my dorm. When I reached the second floor, I found it, unlocked the door, and went inside.
I was eager to rest, so I organized my belongings. I figured I'd read the dorm rules later.
Since I was alone, I called my parents to let them know I had arrived.
"Hello, Allysiah," my mom answered.
"Hi, Mom. I've arrived at my dorm," I said.
"That's good to hear. Have you eaten yet?" she asked.
"Yes, I have," I replied.
"Good. Alright, get some rest now," she said.
"Okay, bye," I said.
I ended the call. I had already finished organizing since I didn't bring much.
After changing clothes, I decided to lie down and take a nap.
To Be Continued...
"Love, let's go to the park." I went down the stairs, filled with hope, and approached Cloud, hoping for a softer response. "Please, Luna, can you stop this? And don't call me 'love'-I don't love you. Ours is just an arranged marriage, and maybe you've forgotten that you're the reason Stella and I broke up." "Is it my fault, Cloud? I'm a victim too. Do you think I wanted to be tied to a man I don't even love? I'm struggling just as much as you are, Cloud." My voice trembled, pleading for his understanding. "Why don't you just leave me? Oh, right, because you won't have anyone to leech off of if you leave me." He laughed, but his every sneer was filled with anger, especially when our eyes met. "You have no right to say that, Cloud! I've never asked you for money!" I shouted back, holding onto what little dignity I had left. "I'm getting the divorce papers finalized today, and you need to sign them as soon as possible. I can't stand seeing your face every day." But the truth was, every word he said felt like a knife cutting into my heart. "C-Cloud, maybe we can still talk about this." I reached for his hand, still hoping there was a chance, but he pulled it away. "What's there to talk about? Isn't it clear that I don't want you and that I don't love you?" His voice thundered through the mansion, his words like a storm shattering my world. "Right, you don't love me." I laughed, but it was filled with bitterness. I looked at him, trying to hide my tears. "You know, Cloud, I wanted to stay by your side until you learned to love me. But I can't, because you've already given up on us. Yes, you don't love me because I'm the reason you and Stella broke up." "Cloud, I studied how to love you. I admit, at first, I didn't want to be with you. But I couldn't help it. Slowly, I started falling for you, and I foolishly thought that maybe one day, you'd learn to love me too. But no, I was wrong. I just wanted to be loved by you, Cloud, but you denied me even that. My chest felt heavy, and trembling, I stepped back." "You know, I dreamed of you loving me the way you loved Stella. But I guess that's impossible." I laughed again, but this time, it was empty, filled only with sadness and pain. "There's no point in forcing myself on you anymore. Maybe I've suffocated you so much that you're begging for your freedom. I'm sorry for being the reason you and Stella broke up. Don't worry, I'll talk to her." I forced a smile, even as I felt myself breaking inside. "Since your birthday is coming up, my gift to you is my signature on the divorce papers. Just call me when they're ready. I'll start packing." Once inside my room, I collapsed to my knees, letting the tears I'd been holding back flow freely. "Why does it always have to be like this? I just wanted to feel his love..." After I finished packing, I went down the stairs. I found Cloud in the living room, standing with his back to me. "Ah, Cloud, I'm leaving now. Just call me when the divorce papers are ready. Thank you for everything, Cloud." I forced a smile and walked out of the mansion, carrying the feelings I wanted to bury but couldn't let go of. "You're free now, Cloud. You can be with Stella. Even though it hurts, I'll endure it. I took a deep breath. This time, I won't beg for your love."

In my world, if you're weak, you're done for. I refused to be one of the weak, so I committed myself to intense training to become stronger. I pushed my limits, sharpened my skills, and believed that I could overcome any challenge. But in the end, I died... trying to help someone weak. Or at least, that's what I thought. When I opened my eyes, I found myself in an unfamiliar place. And soon, the truth hit me: I had been reincarnated.
When she was forcibly dragged out of her Aunt Leonora's house by armed men, she could do nothing but scream and shout. No matter how much she struggled, she couldn't break free, especially when they covered her mouth and nose with a cloth that had a dizzying smell. Eventually, she lost consciousness. She woke up in a luxurious mansion and met the owner and the mastermind behind her kidnapping-Alted Dela Fuente-her husband. She was utterly confused about what was happening, especially when he insisted that she was Candice Dela Fuente, his deceitful wife. Anger, hatred, and disgust were all she could see in the eyes of the man standing before her. The man was very handsome, but he had an authoritative presence, and the first emotion he showed her was anger. He didn't believe anything she said. She wasn't Candice. She knew herself; her name was Aurora, and she knew she had no husband and could not have any relationship with Mr. Dela Fuente. But he refused to believe her; he wouldn't let her go or escape. She knew the man would make her suffer, but what else was new? Her whole life had been filled with hardship and mistreatment. That was nothing new to her. "You can't fool me, Candice, not again," Mr. Dela Fuente told her through gritted teeth. The blazing anger in his eyes was proof that he would never let her go. How could he believe her when she looked exactly like his wife, Candice? Every angle, eye, nose, shape of the face, even their body, looked like a xerox copy. "You're my wife." That statement made her feel overwhelmed. Wife? Impossible, yet something pushed her to pretend to be his wife. She had many reasons to impersonate Candice. Those reasons urged her to assume Candice's identity, borrow her persona, and escape her own as Aurora Sandoval. She was not his wife... she was not Candice. Life had not been fair in her past, so maybe she could be his fake wife and pretend to be Candice for a while. She was Aurora, and she would become Candice, the lost wife of the rich and well-known Alted Dela Fuente.
"You are not my child. "You don't belong in this family! "trash!" "Gross!" "What a disappointment!" "Ugly and trash!" "You're disgusting!" "You don't belong in this school, b*tch!" I let out a deep sigh as I recalled the hurtful words they hurled at me. Whether at home or school, it was the same—nothing but pain was brought upon me. "Why is the world so unfair to me?" This was the question I always asked God. Why was I born into this world only to suffer? All I wanted was to be loved—to be happy—so why does it seem like everything is denied to me? I don't understand why it feels like the world is playing a cruel trick on me, intentionally keeping me from getting what I desire. I sighed again. "I hope in my next life, I will be happy." I forced a smile, hiding the deep pain that lingered within me. I could never have imagined that everyone would be so cruel to me, that I would experience such hardship. I placed my hands on the concrete while gazing at the vast surroundings and the students scattered around. I had been sitting here on the railing of our school building's rooftop for some time. This is where I come whenever I'm sad or when everyone bullies me. I sighed once more and looked up at the sky. "Lord, was I a bad person in my past life? Because the world is so cruel to me." Was I truly bad? Or is it just the people around me who are? No one treated me well. Everyone hates me. I have no friends or even anyone I can call 'family.' Do I deserve to live in this world? I placed my hands on the concrete again to support myself as I stood up. "I'm tired of everything. I want this to end." I looked down. My knees trembled as I realized how high up I was. If I fall from here, I will surely leave this world forever. "Maybe if I die, they will be happy," I whispered sadly as I closed my eyes, recalling the faces of all those who caused me so much pain. Tears streamed from my eyes. I felt trapped in a never-ending cycle of torment, reliving the painful experiences over and over again. I've had enough. I'm tired. Maybe it's time to rest... forever. "To end this pain is to finish everything," I whispered again, opening my eyes and slowly stepping onto the edge of the railing. "Goodby—" I was about to fall when suddenly someone forcefully grabbed my hand, causing me to land on top of someone's body. I recognized the familiar scent of his perfume. I quickly stood up as I realized who it was. It's him again... The guy who became my tormentor, making my life even more miserable. "You should have just let me go. Isn't that what you—and everyone—want? For me to disappear from this world," I said lifelessly. His face remained blank, showing no emotion as he looked at me. "Tsk!" I was startled when he suddenly closed the distance between us and spoke coldly into my ear, "If you want to die, wait for me to be the one... to end your life." Then, he immediately turned his back on me. I don't know why, but a surge of intense anger suddenly welled up in my heart because of what he said. The sadness I felt moments ago was instantly replaced with rage. My face suddenly became devoid of emotion. "Oh, is that so?" I said, colder than ice, which made him stop walking. "Alright," I continued, quickly removing my heeled shoe and throwing it at him with all my might, hitting him squarely on the head. I quickly walked toward him and confronted his shocked face. "Sorry, I didn't mean to," I said, cold as ice, but dripping with sarcasm. After saying that, I picked up my shoe and swiftly turned my back on him.
I’m hesitant whether to knock or not on the door where the President is. I’m embarrassed by the tight red dress I’m wearing. I couldn’t refuse because if I did, they would have dragged me here by force, so I just followed what they wanted. "Should I go in or not?" I whispered to myself. I thought about the money the President’s bodyguard mentioned—1 million just to talk to me. I was shocked because I needed the money to pay for school this year. I’m entering Grade 12, and I should have saved up by now, especially since the school year is approaching. "I guess I should go in—" I was about to knock when the door suddenly opened. "Are you going to stay there or leave without your money?" he asked seriously. My eyes widened in shock as I found myself face-to-face with the President of the Philippines. He was incredibly muscular and even more handsome in person. “Ahm… I’m going in,” I said, bowing my head as I walked past him. “What do you need? What are we going to do? I can entertain you until tomorrow if 1 million is enough,” I said in rapid succession. I was nervous because it was my first time meeting him. I was lucky, but at the same time, unlucky if he planned to do something else—hopefully not. "Sit on my bed," he said, which startled me, so I quickly obeyed. Shit. He’s scary. He stood in front of me, making me even more anxious. I looked into his eyes, wondering why he was standing there. I watched as he slowly unbuttoned his shirt, never breaking eye contact with me. “W-what are you doing?” I asked, my voice trembling as I averted my gaze. I felt him move closer, so I looked up at him. His facial features were stunning. He was different, very different in person. His eyebrows were thick, and his lips were incredibly red. “Let me taste you,” he said huskily while touching my face. I froze at his words and took a step back. I didn’t expect him to say that to me. What we were about to do was wrong—it wasn’t part of the deal. I couldn’t give myself to him. “No, I don’t want to…” I said, trembling as I tried to step back, but he stopped me, and I could still feel the floor beneath me. He held my chin and then moved his hand to the side of my arm. “I want you…” I couldn’t move because if I refused now, I’d lose the 1 million, and who knows, he might even kill me for saying no. “Mr. President…” I said softly as his hand moved down to my chest. “Lie down,” he ordered in a cold tone, so I obeyed him. Our thighs were still touching, so he spread them apart, and I couldn’t control myself because of how he held my thigh, which was heating me up. “I want to taste your sweet body and lips.” “Please, Mr. President, stop this…” Even though I wanted it, I was still afraid. I could see him licking my entrance as if he were incredibly thirsty. I didn’t know where to turn because this was all so unfamiliar to me. “Ahh… Mr. Pres—” I couldn’t help but moan because of the pleasure. Mr. President, stop this, I can’t control myself. Please. I no longer recognize myself. I want my body, but my body wants him. “You taste so good…” He licked so hard, like I was the most precious dessert of his life. His tongue was out, kissing the sides of my folds. I was going crazy because I could feel something coming out. I couldn’t hold it in anymore, so I let it out, and I saw him lick it and swallow it. I was so surprised. “Move…” I did as he said, lying down properly, still in shock from what had just happened. I saw him undress, removing his pants and boxers, which made my eyes widen. He came closer and closer, making me even more anxious. He leaned on me, then removed my dress so that I was fully naked, and he kissed me hungrily. I couldn’t keep up, so I kept my mouth shut. “Move your mouth, woman. I want to taste you,” he said sternly, scaring me. I kissed him back with the same intensity, making me arch my back. His hands roamed all over my body. He stopped for a moment to look at me completely. “You’re so beautiful, damn woman,” he whispered to me. I moaned when I felt his hand rubbing my breasts, and slowly, he lowered his head to taste my peak, making me groan hard. “Ahh… woman,” he moaned. He returned to my lips, kissing me so hungrily that I couldn’t breathe, so I paused before kissing him back again. But I suddenly cried out when I felt him enter me. “Oh, your first time? Are you okay? Do you want to continue?” he whispered to me. “Yes, please…” So he moved quickly, making me moan. I didn’t know where to turn, seeing how much he was enjoying himself. Then he kissed me again, not hungrily but passionately, as if he wanted me to stay with him. Then I felt myself release, and he did too. He hugged me, and I felt him kiss the nape of my neck. He fell asleep, and I stayed there, crying, thinking about what I had done. When I woke up, I was surprised to find that I was dressed and remembered what had happened last night, something I hadn’t expected. I was still sitting in bed when I caught his.
