SEASON 2
EPISODE 7
*Unedited*
Veronica tries to control her temper. But she understands how Tony would feel. So she followed him to her grandfather’s room and he shut the door in front of her face. She exhales and just waited outside as Tony discuss something with her grandfather.
Tony was frustrated. Tony was anxious. How can he not be anxious when Veronica would put herself in peril all over again. Calvin expected him but never expected him to come to him so soon.
“Grandpa, I want to help Veronica take over this organization.”
“Okay.” Calvin said without hesitation. He trusted Loren’s son. Tony showed him his love to Veronica and how he was also ready to die just to save her. Though, Veronica didn’t want him to get hurt, he would still do it all over again.
“You know where Francisco is.” Tony stated.
“We can’t capture him.” Calvin said. “Trust me. Mondragon is still on the play. Let the cats play on the rats before they kill them.”
Tony was surprised. So it was really Mondragon. Ezekiel. And something was bothering him from Calvin’s words. Who else? Ezekiel has a grudge with Francisco and Sabrina but who else?
“You mentioned Mondragon.” Tony wants to fill the puzzles but Calvin remain quiet. He knows something that they don’t. Do Sabrina also know about this? Was it the reason why she block all of her traumatic memories together with her recent ones and went back to when it never hurt her?
“I did. I will set a meeting so you can meet them.” He said. “I will rest now.”
Tony nods as he strode outside where Veronica was waiting. It seemed like she didn’t hear anything at all.
“So?” She asked him.
“You will not do any stupid things again.” He told her a little annoyed.
“Why are you angry?” She asked.
“I am not angry! I am annoyed.” He raises his voice. “I will give you a proper lecture.” He pick her up like a sack and she squeal.
He took her to their room and he locks it. He almost throw her on the bed. Veronica exhales as she pushes away her hair from her face. Tony was pacing back and forth in front of her. She tilt her head, quizzical on what he’s doing.
“What’s up?” She asked.
“Your granddad just mentioned Mondragon.” He said.
“Uh, what’s wrong with that?” She asked.
“He mentioned Mondragon not Ezekiel Mondragon.”
“Hmm.” Veronica rubbed her chin.
“Ezekiel was the only one who has a grudge to Francisco. What if Anastasia is alive and she is the one playing them? Janine was bailed out of jail and Ezekiel didn’t make a move to bring her back there. It wasn’t Ezekiel’s game, Veronica. What if Sabrina actually witness something when she went to the US?” Then Tony snapped his fingers.
“Gabriel told me before that, whenever Sabrina call in the house someone picks it up. Not Ezekiel and she heard a voice on the other line but she didn’t say anything about it. She do breakdown after hearing that voice.” Tony’s voice get intense even more. Veronica catch it and understood it all. She got her own Sherlock here. “That would trigger Sabrina’s trauma…” Tony mutter.
“Tony.” Veronica calls. He look at her. “Come here.” Tony did as he move closer and sat down at the edge of the bed. “Sherlock, that’s a new se-xy.” She said seductively. Suddenly all of Tony’s curiosity dies when she makes a move by caressing his chest from his back. Veronica ki-sses his ear and nibble his earlobe.
Tony become still, he wanted to stop her but he miss how she tease him. They can’t have se-x yet. Both of them are restraining themselves but Veronica is insisting now. He hold her hand and stop her.
“I thought you are going to punish me.” She said seductively. He ki-sses her hand. Veronica stop her seduction and wrapped her arms around him. She ki-ss his cheeks. “I am well now, Tony-baby.”
Tony smile. Tony-baby sound great. He lay down on the bed and she straddle him and lay on his chest. Tony hug her tightly. Those days and nights that she stayed in the laboratory away from him was torture but it was all worth it because now—he have her and he had saved her.
“Two more weeks, V.” He mutter. “We have to wait for two more weeks.”
“That’s long…” she murmur. “I want you now.”
“I know. I also want you so—badly.” He reached her bu-tt and squee-zeit.
“We can do dry humping, oral se-x or make out…” She suggested.
“Hmm.” He thought for a while. It wasn’t that bad.
“You know like the first time we got nak-ed …” She grins at him. He reach her left hand where the rings are located. She ki-sses his nose. “Come on.” She snuggle like a kitten. “I miss screwing like rabbits.”
Tony laugh out loud. Veronica knows how to stir him up.
“V, you talk dirty. That’s too se-xy.” He reach her bu-tt and squee-zeit more.
Tony took her to the bathroom to satisfy each other. She got tired so easily and ended up on bed where she slept off. He decreased the AC and cover her with the duvet. Tony reach his phone and tried to call Gabriel but he’s not answering. Maybe he’s too busy to even bother answering his calls.
So he texted him.
-Need to talk to you. ASAP. Not throu-ghcall we need to meet.
Tony went to Veronica and reach her face. He bent down and ki-sses it. It wakes her up and she patted the space beside her.
“Come on, spoil me before you get busy on taking over Ivanov’s business.” Tony chuckle and did do as she asked. He hug-ged her tightly and ki-sses her ear. “So, grandpa already agreed?”
“I agreed to it. Your grandpa will set a meeting and he didn’t want me to finish your father quickly… Mondragon needs something to play.”
“Mondragon is Sabrina. Of course they have to play first. There’s no fun without torture.” She reach him down there. Tony’s eyes widens and he glower at her. She smirk at him.
“Veronica, I—” she shush him and she ki-sses his li-ps. Tony wrapped his arms around her and let her have her own way.
________
Ferdinand was listening to the mellow music as he reminiscence his time with Anastasia during their honeymoon stage. They would prepare dinner together and dance after the song “I’ll make love to you” by the Boyz II Men. Cla-ssic and whenever he sings it and reach the chorus—she would flush and mutter something to him that would make him hot.
He smiles as he remember. It was so real in his head, the fantasy he feels right as he reminiscence that he was still young and love it whenever he carries her everyday to their bed. He had love her dearly and even though he didn’t say it everyday, they both know that what they feel is true and no one can break them apart.
Whenever he sees Catriona and Enzo, he feel bad for himself to loose his wife too early. He could see and compare himself with Enzo back then, taking care of the triplets and making sure that they didn’t get any rashes and a-ssisting the wife. He left the mansion in order to give them some privacy. He’s old and lonely.
Everything that Anastasia owns stays here in the rest house where everything started. They didn’t have a mansion yet. They stayed here in the rest house when they elope and first made love.This was where they cried, telling each other that no one is going to let go and that they have to fight for each other until the end.
That stayed still in Ferdinand’s heart. He still has Anastasia in his heart and he just wished that so soon, he would die so he can be with her wherever she is.
Ferdinand close his eyes and let the Gramophone play the same song again and again as he hug-ged his beautiful wife’s painting like she was there, in his arms and lying on his chest.
***
Anastasia wanted to play again. So he let her do as she wished. Anastasia is with a dozen of body guards. Firstly, she wanted to see a place. The rest house didn’t have a gate, it was made of wood. It still look good and it seems like it was maintained. Her heart melts. Did Ferd keep it alive for her?
She walk freely to the doorstep. She wanted to go in but a music was playing over and over again. She remain standing there stiff as she listen to their theme song.
“Close your eyes, make a wish…”
She put her hand on the door as she listen and her memories with her love plays. Instead of being happy, tears falls from her eyes as she hold her heart.
“As I make love to you, like you want me to
And I’m gonna hold you tight…”
She move to the window just beside the door and saw him with closed eyes on the single sofa, his feet over the foot rest as he hug a frame, she hold her mouth to avoid sobbing. She saw her portrait… it was her. The one he was hugging. He looks serene like she was there but not in reality but in his dreams.
She remembers how she rested on his chest during their nap time. He would ki-ss her forehead and mutter her some sweet-nothings. Their heart ache for each other. She knows to herself that Ferdinand would never cheat on her. He never loved anyone but her. What she sees now is the proof.
“Darling…” She murmur. Ferdinand slowly open his eyes. Her eyes dilated and she immediately run away and left.
***
Ferdinand felt that someone was watching him. The way the person was watching him was comparable to someone he knew. He saw a Goddess from the window it was familiar. At first he didn’t react because he knew that it was impossible. But now—he stood and walk to the door. No one was there. He look around. Maybe it was Anastasia… visiting him from this world.
“Oh, Ana…” He said. “If only I could bring you back to life.”
As he said it, he didn’t know that someone was hiding from the big brake of the tree, holding her mouth while weeping silently. She heard him.
“My mistake was drinking a glas-sthat had been drugged and being manipulated by a woman. My mistake wasn’t telling it to you… I am not truthful enough. My mistake was that I allowed her in our lives… now I am here alone… this is my punishment for not protecting you and our triplets.”
Anastasia’s heart was breaking into pieces as she listen to him. Then Ferdinand saw a beautiful bu-tterfly perk on his shoulder. He thought that it was Anastasia. Because they believe that once a person dies, for them to see and visit their loved ones, the soul is able to be with them and see them throu-ghthe appearance of the bu-tterflies.
“Tell me, my lost love. How can I make up for all of this?” He paused. “I promise you, I will make them pay triple than the pain you felt.”
Suddenly his phone chimes and he answer it.
“Yes.”
“Sir, we found where Marga and Janine went.”
“Good. Keep following them. Janine has to pay for what he did to my son… and for attempting to kill my daughter.”
“Yes, sir. But Mondragon’s people block us.”
“What do you mean?” Ferdinand asked.
“He told us to stay away. We don’t know what they are planning but it seemed like they are letting them go. Sir, I think this is Mondragon’s game. It is a torture.”
“I understand. I’ll speak with Ezekiel.”
Anastasia wipe away her tears as she peek on him. His eyes is flaring in anger.
“Mr. Mondragon. I am now aware that you know who killed my Anastasia.”
“Your Anastasia?” Ezekiel scoff. “Of course I know. Your daughter knows it well. But because of your stupidity—she block all of those memories for her not to get hurt. You hurt your daughter. You hurt my daughter. So now, tell me—”
“I want to kill who did this to Ana, Mr. Mondragon.”
“Really?”
“I know that’s what you wanted. That’s why you train Sabrina to kill those who killed her mom. Do you even think about it? You could’ve used me… but now, I am begging you. Sabrina has been hurt many times. I think its okay with me if she can’t remember it all.. that she never witnessed it all. Because it kills me each time I see my child in pain.”
