World After Worlds
Chapter 161 - 161: BEGGING

"I will not hurt you anymore, Rym. I know you can't believe me, but I will prove it to you." Achis reached out for her again, this time she let him hold her.

"No, if you are not really involved then it's fine." She sighed and looked at him. "Achis, you can't prove anything to me, we are over. Just like my promise, I will give you the payment for the last few months you've been taking care of me. But now, let's forget everything. Let's go back to where we belong." For the second time, the words she said sent him a bucket of cold water. This time, it was followed up by boiling water. He was so anxious that he had lost his composure.

"YANAR NO! I don't need anything! We're not over! Nothing's over between us! Don't say it like that! I can't live, I can't live without you anymore...please." He was agitated, his face turned pale, and his movements were frantic, and his breathing was heavy. His eyes became red and watery.

Yanarym did not fret or faze, she continued to become heartless and cruel to the young man who was so overwhelmed by her.

"I am not for you! I have Lapil! He is my betrothed! I have Maki too! He had me first! What are you? What are we? We are just having business transaction, now it's done, it's over---"

"FUCK NO! HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU!? YOU MEAN SO MUCH TO ME! I don't fucking care about your body! All I want is your love! I DON'T NEED ANYTHING BUT YOU! WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND T-THAT?!" Tears that he was trying to hold back stream from his eyes. As his knees weakened he knelt to her, he just couldn't keep his stand. Her hand he's holding, he tries his best to hold on even though his grip was already so shaky and soft. He couldn't even close it to form a fist or clutch anything.

"Please, please? Alright? I don't care about anything anymore. Just don't---don't abandon me again. Yanar, please… I'm going insane if you do it again. Don't leave me behind, I will do anything. Anything for you, whatever it is. Alright? Hmm? Just don't leave me… please, I beg you... I beg you… p-please." His body trembled as he put her hand on his forehead. And begged her with a stuttering voice, he couldn't think about anything or even keep his dignity as a Datu.

He remembered belittling women before but now, he felt so small to her. The absolute power was in her hands, not to him. This must be the craziest thing that happened in his life. She must be a blessing and a curse at the same time.

He can't let go. He can't.

There was a time where he thought at night. Where he was staring at her sleeping face so soundly, and he started to wonder. How much, or how far could he go for this woman. What can he give up for her? Now, he knew… his everything before seems like nothing today.

Because what he values the most, is her. His everything became her. When she left him, he felt so hollow, so empty… he knew it. She is everything for him. How far, how much? What can he give her?

He doesn't know, because she already took it away. Without any caution… She made him like this.

The sobs and beseeching of the young Datu could be heard in the forest. He was kneeling to the ground, holding her one hand, wailing so hard that it seemed like he was about to lose something so important or he had already lost it. He looks pitiful, he sounds pitiful, he's so desperate.

No one could expect that the young Datu who was always proud, arrogant, and fierce would be begging like a child to a woman.

"Yanar!" Out of the blue, two men that were also under the clutch of this woman came into the scenario. What they did not expect was this, they thought the one who was crying and begging was the woman they love but saw the opposite of what they expected.

They felt cold crawling on their spine, seeing this. "Achis, you can stop now, let's talk about Baba's balay." The heartless woman said, kneeling to level on him, holding both of his cheeks and wiping his tears away. She smiled at him sweetly. "I can't come to you, so, you come to me, alright?" And Achis nodded without complaint.

Why does this angel feel so demonic at that certain moment?...

Weeks had passed and Tala was prepared to launch her plans. She was back at the Rajah's puod, after she had Achis to her side she felt content. And Maki had contacted her, reporting some news about Datu and Yanarym. In the end, he told her that he would continue to survey the banwa. As she thought, Maki was always on her side.

Rajah Basi was on her side snuggling her little body to his. They are both naked as they had just finished their lovemaking. Both are having the time of their lives as they had no news when Hara would come home. And if she does, the Rajah would probably detain her for not to let her ruin his newfound happiness.

"You look delighted." Rajah Basi pointed out seeing the blooming smile on Tala's face.

"Of course, everything is happening just the way I want it." She replied and swiftly inclined her arms to his torso and embraced him. "Thank you for supporting me from the beginning, Basi."

"Of course, my Love. What did I tell you? I will give you anything you want." He whispered to her and reached out for her lips. They started to kiss each other and got immersed at the moment that they did not notice someone entered the room.

It was the Hara… she was in trance.
