Prologue

"As a woman, do not throw yourself into a man because men should always do the first move."

This aphorism was shared by Elysiah's mother and she was enrooted to that belief. It may sounds like old-fashioned but she inculcated in her mind that she must know her self-worth.

If a man likes her then she will let him do the first move that's why she didn't do anything to be noticed by the man she likes. She waited for him to initiate. She waited for him almost two years. She waited for him to do such kind of intimate things but sad to say, he didn't.

She added more patience, expecting that one day, her dream man will look at her the way she looks at him. She never looses hope. She believes in God's perfect timing.

"Imperial, Elysiah Briseis M." Miss Faith Morgan called her from the stage.

She smiles. Those painful memories she had in mind faded slowly as she walks through the carpetted aisle drammatically. It's her graduation day and she's wearing the best outfit of her life, she must be happy. Well, she's really at bliss but, how can you rate her happiness if two different emotions were filling her? You wouldn't know unless you'll put on her shoes.

Despite the struggle inside of her, Elysiah managed to walk down the aisle until she reached her final destination--the stage. There are visitors standing there. They are honorable and well-known species. Their presence add a bit nervousness.

Miss Morgan, their adviser, gave the product of her sleepless nights. Elysiah receives it without hesitation and faces the camera man wearing a complete smile. After how many years, she showed off her sweet and genuine smile again. It's because of the Diploma she was holding.

Miss Morgan called a name again and it's a cue for him to leave the stage. Even if she still wanted to display herself, she doesn't have a choice but to exit.

Everybody's gazing at the stage but Elysiah had a strong feeling that a pair of eyes were watching her while walking.

Thinking about her dream man, her face begun to heat and spark ripped through her body. Maybe, he was really looking at her but who would know?

She didn't want to conclude anything. Just assume--even if reality will hit her hard. She'll take the risk.

Elysiah gathered a strength to search her dream man from the crowd. She's excited to see his handsome and angelic face. Unfortunately, her bestfriend, Prime was the one who waves at her.

Her excitement disappeared but she gave her bestfriend a simple smile and a faint look to the man he likes. Actually, they were in the same circle of friends. He was so close but still a world away.

How ironic.

When Elysiah reached her seat, she sat down silently. Her friends was talking to her but she was staring at her dream man's broad shoulders. She ignored her friends unintentionally.

When is the time he'll notice her?

She really likes him since the time they first met.

They were good back then and she didn't know what exactly happen to them.

Does he hates her?

Or he doesn't have the courage to speak--to confess?

Chapter 01

AFTER finishing junior high school, Elysiah Imperial decided to transfer and continue her studies at Saint Michael University--a prestigious school outside of their city wherein grade school,high school and college were available.

Her parents didn't agree about this matter because rape has been rampant inside and outside of the city. It could be dangerous for a beautiful young lady to study there without her family's supervision. But despite the threatening societal issue, she still wanted to study in Y city. She wanted to explore and experience various environments.

And now that she convinced her parents, she proceeded to their study room. It was located at the first floor of their ancestral and yet, modernized house.

Elysiah was preparing her requirements for matriculation when Ian, her brother, entered into the study room wearing pajamas and holding an art paper. Elysiah was sitting on the couch and her documents were on the table. She started gathering them silently, thinking that her brother will use the room for business matter.

Ian walks toward his little sister. He sat down on the other couch and slid the paper on the center table. The two had an argument yesterday that's why he's here--to reconcile. He couldn't take their feud any longer.

"Ace, I got this from brother Zech. I know you are interested at Saint Michael." He said, trying to capture his little sister's attention.

Ace was Elysiah's nickname and sometimes she doesn't like it.

She's planning to ignore his brother but she was stunned and unable to move as she gaze the paper on top of the study table. She has a strong feeling that it was the blueprint of the University. Who wouldn't come up with that idea, anyway? Her elder brother Zechariah Imperial was an engineer and he graduated at Saint Michael University. The blueprint was one of his masterpieces.

Elysiah stops gathering her things. She reached the paper and take a look at it expeditiously. Happiness filled through her as she gaze her brother.

He was really clever and sweet brother. He knew how to tame a little wild cat.

"I knew you'll like it." Ian breaths out to broke the silence.

His arrogant expression didn't change and his satisfied smile was still evident even Elysiah didn't utter any word. He can read his little sister's emotion and he knew that his effort didn't gone to waste because she doesn't know how to conceal her feelings.

"Are we good, now?" He asked, still smiling.

"As if I have a choice."

"Silly girl." Ian chuckles. "I have something to lend you."

With a mischevous smile, Ian slid his hand on his pocket. He has a penchant of giving valuable things especially in a situation like this. It's one of his way of cherishing as well as apologizing.So, his little sister was anticipating a cellphone or maybe a usable staff.

"Here, catch it!" Ian said as he tossed a black shining metal in the air.

Elysiah catched the black shining metal with her two bare hands without hesitation. It supposed to land on her adorable face but she moves like a trained ninja.

"You're good at catching." Ian commented.

"What is this?" She asked and she doesn't like her brother's playful smile.

Elysiah settled her both hands infront. She was curious and in her surprise, it was a walther PPS. It was a gun! She threw it a few meters away. It was her first time to hold a dangerous weapon and she didn't like the feeling. It made her shocked and frightened little cat.

Ian laughed her reaction. It's a funny sight to see. He isn't fond of telling jokes but he has a happy disposition in life. He always thinks positively. He knows how to protect his family. He's really a good son and a brother.Little did they know, Ian also behaves errantly.

"Where did you get that?" She asks suspiciously.

Ian was only 4 years older and weapons like gun wasn't for him. He's not a sheriff nor a soldier. He's a chef for pete sake! Spoon and fork should be his armour, right?

"Brother Eleazar gave it to me." Ian answers, still chuckling."And it has a license."

"How? I haven't seen him for 9 nine months straight!"

Ian stood up and reached the weapon on the floor and started walking toward his little sister.

"He's an Imperial, Ace. Don't underestimate him." He said full of pride.

Elysiah was alert. Everytime his brother take a step, she's preparing to defend herself. God knows how much she wanted to strangle her brother for scaring her.

Ian stops from walking and offer the gun to his little sister in a nice way.

"I'm lending it to you.You'll need it for self-defense." He said calmly but his sister shake her head.

"I don't need that. Human protection is all I need and that is you."

"I'm not here all the time, Ace. You must learn to protect and defend yourself. A strong and independent woman is more...glamorous. " Ian said and a playful smile drew on his lips.

Elysiah's eyes widened. She didn't expect that kind of sentiment. When it comes to women, her brother's persuasion is always neutral. He doesn't criticize so easily. But, now, he made a cause to remember.

"Is mother and father knows about it?" She asked.

She's already in a state of tranquility but her eyes were informing his brother that she was worried. She's really worried. Having a deadly weapon isn't a joke. It may cause a trouble to anyone.

"I think, it's not necessary for them to know."he shrugs.

"What about brother Zech? Did he know it?"

"Rest early, Ace.I'll go first." He sighs instead of answering his sister's inquiry.

Ian knows that Elysiah were scared and worried at the same time. He understand her eyes and gestures. There's no point of persisting. He'll teach his sister on how to use a gun if she's ready.

It took a several minutes before Elysiah decided to go to her room. There's a deeper reason why her brother have a gun but she doesn't like to pry. It's better to wait Ian to open-up.

***

The next morning. Ian knocks at the door of his little sister's room. He already dress-up while his sister is still in the process.

"Ace, are you planning to come into the out or not?" Ian asked in between knocks.

"Give me another minute!"She shouted.

"Alright." He sighs and shakes his head.

Ian is sometimes impatient and he's already irritated. Who wouldn't lose a patience to a young lady who asked a minute for three times? Elysiah should move quicker or else, Ian will lose his sanity.

Few more minutes had passed. Elysiah went out at last. She haven't seen his brother in the living room. And her parents? They went to Catalina, one of the rural areas in the city. They owned and managed an abundant farm land there. Mangoes, Avocadoes and Corns are their well-known products.

Since Ian wasn't in the living room, she didn't waste her time to search for her brother. She went straight to garage. There, Ian was waiting for her.

Ian studied his sister's outfit. The little cat was wearing a floral off-shoulder and denim high waist skirt with white sneakers. Her smooth and shiny hair were tied up. Elysiah is not into cosmetics but she is so adorable. He's afraid he might throtle her useless suitors.

"Are you going to attend a date?a party?" Ian asked. He contracted his brows in displeasure.

"What? It's not like the first time you've seen me in this kind of clothes." She uttered innocently.

Ian rolled his eyes. What else he could do? Ask his sister to change her clothes? Oh come on! To girls, 5 minutes is equivalent to one hour. He can't wait that long. Not now.

Ian opened the shutgun door for his little sister. He's really gentle and sweet. Elysiah hopped in. As soon as Ian shut the door, he jogged into the other side of the car and seated on the driver's seat.

"Buckle up, Ace." He commanded.

The little cat did what he said as he started the engine. Ian is a fast driver but Elysiah still felt safe. She wants to drive too. If they had a free time, she'll ask his brother for driving session. Just perhaps, he'll agree.

"I brought some food. Just in case, hungriness will attack you." Ian said in the middle of the road. His sister gazing at the paper bag that's why he informs what was there.

A smile formed on Elysiah's lips. This is what she likes about her brother. Strict but sweet. She's wondering why her brother doesn't have a girl friend. He's a keeper.

It took one and a half hour before they arrived at Y city but she didn't get bored. She ate all the food and it made her so happy. Food is really a happy pill, right?

Elysiah already had an idea about the school. She have seen it numerous time on the picture and now that she witnessed the beauty of the school personally, she can't help herself but to amaze.

Saint Michael University really possesed an aesthetical beauty. Sons and daughters of well-known families and politicians inside and outside of the city were studying there. Elysiah is an heiress, she deserves to study in an excellent univeristy, right?Besides, her three brothers graduated in this university.

The two siblings were currently walking in the hallway of the school. They're heading to the one-stop-shop of senior high school department. And since the school had a tertiary level, many college students were looking at them.

Imperial brothers are prominent alumni and he didn't like the attention they were giving especially to his little sister. Well, he can't blame the boys. Even if Elysiah doesn't do make-ups, she still damn attractive.Elysiah is the epitome of real beauty.

"This is your enrollment form." Ian said to Elysiah when they finally reached the room for one-stop-shop.

"Thanks, big bro. You're so sweet." She beams. "I wonder why you still haven't a girl friend." She sighs.

"Don't speak nonsense. Finish your enrollment. I'm going to college department."

"What will you do there?" Curiousity strikes her.

"You don't have to know. Call me if you need anything and I'll be right back." He tapped his sister's head and left the room without a noise.

Ian will visit his instructors when he was studying. He'll work abroad as a chef this coming June so he planned to do some chitchat with his old friends who are currently employed in the school.

Elysiah called her brother and told him she's already enrolled. In other schools, enrollment wasn't easy.She hates falling in line and waits for an hour. Thanked God, the system of Saint Michael went smooth and the process of enrollment was fracile.

In the other line, Ian told her sister to wait at the lobby of the school.

When we talk about patience, Elysiah did have an insufficient supply of patience too but as a good sister, she obeyed her brother's word. She went right through the lobby and accidentally bumped a janitor there.

Her papers were scattered on the floor. The janitor apologized and helped her in panick. It seems like the janitor has something important to do.

She told to the janitor that she can manage. Anyways, picking some papers isn't that hard. The janitor bid her agoodbye with a smile on the face.Elysiah has a soft heart and sympathetic feelings can attack her so easily so she smiles back.

The little cat is still picking her papers when a nice guy squats and helped her. She was startled for a few seconds but it was altered by amusement upon seeing his milky skin.

Elsyiah stops from moving and peaks. The guy whose helping her is a wonderful sight to be seen . His squinty eyes were green. His nose is pointed and his hair was messy. He has pinkish and thin lips. He's really adorbale. For sure, this man is a hundred percent heart throb in the campus.

They both stood up.

The adorable guy gave the papers to her and when she reached for it, he left without saying anything. He seems cold, huh.

Wait a minute, Elysiah didn't say thank you yet. She didn't want to accuse by being rude.

"Hey!" She called out.

The adorable guy stopped from walking but he didn't flip his head to look at her. Elysiah was disappointed indeed. She wanted to stare his handsome face but didn't got a chance.

"Thank you!" She said in a sweet manner.

After hearing what was Elysiah said, he walks like nothing happen. What was that? He's adorable and yet, cold.

Disappoinment shreded to Elysiah's body. She never thought that people like him is still existing. She sighs. Forget it. She'll have to wait for his brother. It's better to clean her thoughts.

Chapter 02

REIGAN arrived in Manila, Philippines yesterday. He didn't tell anything to his parents but Seagun, his elder brother, informed his parents about his arrival.And because it was a surprise, his parents didn't manage to fetch him in Manila but they were expecting him to come home.

Little did they know, Reigan rode a bus to Z city. He even rented a taxicab and headed to their Hotel and Resort in Catalina. It was indeed a rural area of Z city but they established the Hidden Paradise for personal and leisure purposes.The place is free from civil disturbance that's why he wanted to rest there for at least 3 days before he'll go back to city proper.

He shut down his cellphone to prevent unhelpful calls especially from Ebony, his rumored girl friend in Z city. That girl never stop fussing him and he couldn't drive her away. She's the daughter of Vice Mayor Monteclaro and he'll bet, everyone knows the rumor that they were in a long distance relationship. Well, who wouldn't have heard the news? He's the youngest son of Mayor Diaz. He'll probably hit the headline.

Reigan massage his temples while still lying on the bed. It's already 11:46 in the morning and 4 hours of sleep wasn't enough for him. It was too short and he wanted to sleep all day! Travelling overseas isn't really his thing. It made him so empty and exhausted but if it wasn't for Elena, his mother, he won't go home in Z city.

Reigan heave a sigh. He has to gather energy. He'll gonna die if he won't eat mango pie and sip some coffee. It's one of his favorite breakfasts in Barcelona and sometimes he'll eat them as snack.

He reached the telephone on the bedside table and ordered his favorite food. Reigan forgot that he was in Catalina and he almost threw the telephone when he realized that he was in rural area of Z city.

"What kind of breakfast are there?" He asked to the other line.

The staff enumerated various filipino meals including foreign meals. Reigan isn't a picky eater. He loves to eat but not travel. The staff keep on uttering in the other line but he's not listening. He's starving already and his mood was craving for mango pie and coffee! It was his stress reliever.

In his dismay, Reigan hang-up without prior notice.

"Damn it! I'm gonna die here." He cussed.

Let alone where he was. He can't afford to eat raw food, he must do something. Reigan changed his clothes and headed to the lobby. He was astonished right after the moment he saw some tourists who are giggling and chatting around the corners. He didn't expect it. He thought he was alone.

For your information, hidden Paradise is a well-known Hotel and Resort in Z city. It's great distance didn't hinder people to come and spend their time there. And because it was located at Catalina, most of the residents were working there too.

"Good afternoon sir, how can I help you?" The woman in the front desk asked Reigan because he's just standing and watching the pretty girls in the lobby.

"Uh.." he trailed."I'm Reigan Diaz. May I use the kitchen?"

The woman dropped her jaw and obviously mesmerized. Of course, Reigan isn't mundane! He's a personified greek god! He can catch a woman's heart in just a single glance just like what happens to the girl now.

"I'm Sherra." She said.

Reigan looks at her, confused. Why did she tell her name? He wasn't asking for it. He was asking a permission to use the kitchen.

"May I use the kitchen, Miss Sherra?" He asked.

The girl named Sherra blushed and flashed a sweet smile as she give the passcard to Reigan.

"Thanks." Reigan smiles back and it was the reason why Sherra giggled.

Reigan shook his head. That kind of scene wasn't new to him. What do you expect? He's a heart throb. We can't blame Reigan for being a girl magnet. Even if he didn't make a move, girls will always stick to him. Just like Ebony.

The chefs are currently doing their jobs when Reigan entered the kitchen. All of them stopped from working. They couldn't believe Reigan was here and they were dumbfounded.

"What are you doing here Mr. Diaz?" The head chef asked him.

Since Reigan isn't a bossy-type. A shy smile drew on his lips as he scratch his nape.

"I just want to cook my own food." He said a little bit shy.

The head chef advanced in his direction while holding a knife. "What will you cook?"

"Anything? As long as it will satisfy my cravings."

The head chef narrowed his eye and studied his face.Reigan swallowed hard but he was standing firm.

"Here! Cook your own food." The head chef gave the knife to him and then he faces his fellow chefs."Alright! Continue your work!"

Reigan beams like an idiot. It's an honor for him to cook in their hotel's kitchen.

"Hey little brother! What are you eating?" Seagun asked to Reigan from the other line.

After cooking, Reigan brought his food in his room and he's eating them now while video chatting with his two brothers.Good Lord, he learned how to cook in Barcelona.It's profitable to make your own food sometimes, right?

"Hotsilog." He answered.

"What was that?" Seagun inquired again but Michigan snatched the phone from his brother.

" You are eating hotdog and fried egg with fried rice?" Michigan almost shouts in disbelief. Reigan just nods as an answer. He's really starving to death, you know.

"What the hell! I miss that meal!" Michigan blurted.

"What kind of meal is that?." Seagun asked behind his brother.

Seagun and Michigan were born in Spain and they studied there since grade school. Both of them are managing their own businesses now and they will only visit their mother's hometown whenever they had a free time. In the contrary, Reigan was born in the Philippines but he was sent in Spain after his grade school and to avoid trouble, the siblings gained their dual citizenship.

"You still don't know that food?" Michigan asked to Seagun and the latter shook his head as an answer."Oh man! You're not getting any younger. You should know its taste before I'll bury your unusable body on the ground!"

"Can I book a ticket now?" Seagun uttered innocently. Poor Seagun! He really don't know that food.

"Where are you going?" Reigan asked while still eating. Never mind his mouth that was full. His brothers still loves him even if he behaves like an idiot.

"I'm coming home. I wanna taste that." Seagun pouted his lips like a kid.

Michigan rolled his eyes. "You don't have to book an expensive ticket for hotsilog! We can buy that in supermarket! Idiot!"

"You know what? You should have told me earlier." Seagun said sarcastically.

"Use your brain. Moron!"

Reigan shook his head in amusement. He's indeed the youngest but seems like he's more mature than his two brothers. Look at them, they were arguing about hotsilog--a filipino meal.

"Hey! Tell me if who won the battle, I'll call you later." Reigan wasn't sure if they heard what he said. He just hang-up quickly and finished his food.

He enjoyed eating hotsilog and drinking lemon juice. It's like new to him and it feels like heaven! He'll cook another filipino meal again or maybe, mango pie.He heard that there's a farmland nearby and their number one product were mangoes. He'll visit the farmland and order a bunch of mangoes if there's a chance.

***

THREE days after Elysiah was enrolled, she went to Catalina with Ian. They had a villa there and they can stay there whenever they want.The villa was large and it was made in lumbers. It has three rooms including the master's bedroom and then two guest rooms. The kitchen was large too and the dining area can accomodate one dozen of people.

Actually, they went to Catalina not just for relaxation but also to help their parents in harvesting. They already spent one week in harvesting mangoes and today was Saturday. Their rest day.

"Where's your brother?" Melissa asked to her.

Elysiah was washing the dishes just the time her mother speaks behind her. They have several maids and caretakers but Elysiah used to do the chores. Her three siblings used to do chores too. They were a responsible children, aren't they?

She took a glance and found out that her mother were peaking from the kitchen's entrance. Melissa looks creepy there and she can't help but to arch her eyebrow.

"He's still in his room. I bet he's doing his morning rituals."

"Ritual?" Melissa frowns at her."What kind of ritual is that?"

"It's a boy thing, mom." She explains.

Melissa didn't utter a word. She didn't like what was Elysiah said and when her daughter returned its gaze to her, she compelled a murderous look. Elysiah was stunned but still managed to flash a mischievous smile.

"I'm just kidding mom! Brother woke up early and he went outside for jogging."

"I see." Melissa sighs.

"Hon, have you seen my printed polo shirt? I prepared it last night but it's nowhere to be found."

Both of them gazed to the direction of the voice. It was owned by Elias, Elysiah's father. He was on the second floor of the villa. His two hands were gripping the wooden railings of the stair.

"I think I know where it is." Melissa answers. "Wait me there and I'll get it to the laundry area."

"Make it quick." Elias nods to his wife.

Melissa went to laundry area and search the polo shirt while Elias maneuvered inside their room. Elias was conscious when it comes to shirts. If he already prepared some thing to use, that's the only thing he wanted to use.

Right after Elysiah was done from washing the dishes, she decided to took a bath for at least fifteen minutes. The villa was surrounded by trees and it's really refreshing. Sometimes, it's good not to take a bath. But, one of the reasons why Elysiah wanted to bathe early is her long hair. She still have to dry it using a blower.

IAN woke up early for jogging. It was his daily routine. The sun was till hiding when he left home but it's already shining above him when he returned to their villa. He rested for 2 hours before he decided to take a bath and eat his breakfast.

"Hey there big brother!" Elysiah blurted behind her brother as she hug him.

Ian was watching a television in the living room and he was surprised. He didn't see his little sister this morning.

"You seems energetic. What's the reason behind it?"

"Nothing." She informs. "Bu I have something to tell you."

"What's that?"

Elysiah sat down on the other sofa and focused her eyes on his brother. Ian's attention was on her, he was waiting for the little cat to speak.

"Stop looking at me like that. You're making me worry, Ace." He muttered. His sister's expression was bothering him.

"Can you please teach me how to drive a car?" Elysiah uttered in a fast way. Her fingers were flicking.

"Now?"

Elysiah nodded.

Ian taught his sister how to drive since it was their rest day. She made some research about driving and it's more authentic if she'll use what she have read. Anyway, only few vehicles were using the Catalina's road and it's a perfect place to test drive. Accidents were rare and the place is really eco friendly. It's really a nice place to freshen up.

The driving session lasts for 5 days. The first 3 days were rough and everytime Elysiah did something wrong, Ian cussed nonstop. Well, failure is normal for a beginner. The last 2 days went smoothly but of course, Ian reminded her sister to be more careful and attentive. Being a driver isn't that easy.

***

Thursday morning and the Imperial family were busy. Melissa is cooking food in the kitchen with their two house maids, Cilia and Laring. Elias and Ian were helping their people in harvesting mangoes. There's a client from Hidden Paradise who ordered one truck of mangoes and they must delivered it this afternoon.

Elysiah wanted to harvest mangoes too but her father commanded her to stick around the villa and help her mother do the chores. She did it. She cleaned their rooms and fixed some clothes.

"Mom! I'm done cleaning and fixing some clothes! What will I do now?" Elysiah asked to her mother. She's in the living room and she just shouted.

"Get some rest, Ace!"

"Okay. Thanks mom."And then she lean on the sofa. Maybe she'll rest for at least 30 minutes. She's so damn tired.

Meanwhile, everytime Cilia and Laring sees her, they can't help but to admire her beauty and good character. And even if Elysiah is not around, they still talk about her and as elders, they also share some opinions to Melissa.

"Ace is really beautiful and kindhearted young lady. She has so many wooer for sure." Laring commented as she slice some onions.

"She doesn't have suitors." Melissa answers.

"I think, I won't believe that." Laring said but Melissa just flashed a brief smile.

"Why don't you arrange a blind date for Ace?" Cilia snapped."You can choose a perfect mate from the families of politicians or businnessmen. Besides, your family isn't that ordinary."

"I guess, that's a bit good but interfering one's love life isn't favorable."Melissa said in a normal tone.

Honestly speaking, she doesn't like the idea of Cilia but of course, she must pay respect. Cilia is older than her.

"But you are her mother." Laring breath out.

"I'm indeed her mother but I can't control her mind and her heart. And as a considerate mother, I won't dictate who will she love." Melissa sighed. " I trust Elysiah and I will support and protect my daughter at any cost."

There's no skeptical feelings in her words and it touches the hearts of the two elders.They understand Melissa's side. She has a point anyway. Elysiah is not a robot to be controlled. She's a human being and no one can regulate her mind, her heart, her body and her soul.

Maybe you can influence a person but you can't dictate what he/she wanted to do, right?

Cilia smiled sweetly. "You are really a good mother."

The kitchen is only few meters away from the living room and Elysiah, who has been resting in the living room heard everything. At first, she was irritated because they were talking about her but it was dominated by a satisfaction when she heard her mother's sincere opinion.

Inspite of what was Elysiah heard, she decided to assist the three in the kitchen. Aside from eating, reading a novel is also her stress reliever but she has to help her mother. She'll read a novel later.
