"Strip that dress or I will?"

Nangangatog akong nagbaba ng tingin at mariing kinagat ang aking mga labi.

Pumikit ako ng mariin. "Please...not this way, I...I can't do this." I heaved a sigh. "Isaiah, iba na lang. Kahit a-ano, gagawin ko, 'wag lang ganito."

"Don't make me wait, Michaella. I don't accept rejections from my slut. Now, if you still want to live, do what I say!" Matigas at malamig na sagot ng lalaking naka-upo sa aking harapan. "Huwag kang magkukunwaring parang malinis ka pa."

Manipis na tela lang ang suot ko at tanging underwear lang sa ilalim. Pakiramdam ko ang dumi ko na. Damn.

Napaigtad ako ng marinig ko ang pagkabasag ng isang bagay.

Natamaan ang isa kong paa ng bubog at bumaon pa ito sa aking balat. Napasigok ako upang pigilan ang pag-iyak ng malakas dahil sa pisikal at emosyunal na sakit na nararanasan ko.

Nagkalat ang laman ng wine glass na ibinato niya sa aking harapan. I remained calm despite the searing pain that suddenly attacked my body.

"I am your master Michaella! No one dares to stop me from what I want to do! Only you! How dare you!"

Mabilis na ang sumunod na pangyayari at hindi ko namalayang nakalapit na pala siya sa akin. Napaigik ako ng higitin niya ang buhok ko at hawakan ang baba ko ng mariin.

Hinuli niya ang aking luhaang mga mata at galit na tumitig sa akin.

"Do you understand me, Michaella? You are just my slut and you have no rights to decline my wish. It is just so simple. Strip and make me crazy over that f*cking sexy body of yours. Don't pretend that you don't want it, you're a whore, remember?" Igting ang panga at naniningkit na mga mata nito.

Wala akong inaksayang panahon. I automatically moved my hand to slap him but he is too quick to notice my next action dahil pinigil agad ng malalaki niyang palad ang kamay kong dadapo sana sa kaniyang pisngi.

I stared at him with my teary eyes. "Hindi ako ganung babae, may dignidad ako." Suminghap ako at nagpatuloy. "Nawala lang ang lahat nang 'yun sa sandaling dinala at tinrato mo akong parang hindi babae sa pamamahay na 'to!"

His lips formed a thin line. "Dignity? Really? I don't think so." He roamed his dangerous eyes to my body and stopped at my chest. "Pero kapag inangkin kita, maibabalik pa ba ang dignidad na sinasabi mo? Hindi ka na lugi, I can bring you to seventh heaven."

Licking his lower lips, he abrubtly pressed his big hot palms in one of my brea*t making me jolt. An electrifying sensations traveled down my spine.

"Wala nang maibabalik pang dignidad, Isaiah, wala na." Marahas kong inalis ang mapanakit niyang palad sa aking dibdib at malakas na sinampal ang kaliwa nitong pisngi.

The slap made a loud sound that echoed in the whole room, his eyes became dangerous, like a predator ready to attact its prey.

I just closed my eyes, slowly making myself calm and composed while he is raging with so much madness.

We sometimes need to calm ourselves when an immense anger is slowly eating us, dahil ito pa ang maaaring magdala sa atin sa kapahamakan.
