She Is Zarcaen's

CHAPTER 20

AUDRESYNE

"Fuck! Baby, dahan-dahan naman..." daing ni Zarcaen habang ginagamot ko ang sugat niya. Sinadya ko talagang diinan ang paggagamot dahil kanina pa ako nainis sa kamay niyang nasa loob ng aking damit at nilalaro ang aking tiyan.

We are here inside his room. I already treated his wounds last night when we arrived at the palace from the battle, and he was unconscious at that time. Kaninang umaga ay nadatnan kong nagpupush-up kaya mas bumuka ang mga sugat niya.

Halos dagdagan ko na ang kaniyang sugat dahil sa inis.

"You're a fucking king but Litavis' weakling men still manage to ambush and kidnap you?" hindi makapaniwala kong tanong.

"Don't mention his name in front of me," mariing wika niya.

"Who? Litavis?"

"I have already warned you, Audresyne."

"Sino nga kasi? Is it King Litavis?" taas kilay kong tanong at nagpalit ulit ng cotton para linisin ang dugo sa likuran niya. I'm just teasing him, testing his patience.

"Isang salita mo pa sa pangalan niya, pangalan ko na ang sinisigaw mo habang hinihingal ka."

Saglit akong napakunot sa sinabi niya, pero nang ma-realize na may ibig itong ipahiwatig ay nanlaki ang aking mata.

I smacked his head. "Fuck you, Zarcaen!"

He just chuckled. "Higa ka muna," he said while still playing inside my t-shirt. Randam ko ang init ng kaniyang kamay. Pero kapag yang kamay niya pumunta sa taas, talagang mapuputol ko 'yan.

I never thought that this king has a fucking filthy mouth! Akala ko puro seryoso at malamig na aura lang ang bumabalot dito, kamanyakan rin pala! I should have known better the moment we made out inside his office.

"Sasagutin mo ang tanong ko o dagdagan ko ang sugat mo?"

He sighed. "I lost consciousness. May nagtapon ng lata mula sa labas ng bintana na sinasakyan ko at biglang may lumabas doon na usok. I tried to control myself not to fall asleep but I failed," tiim bagang niyang wika.

"And?"

"I just woke up when I felt like I was currently whipping, and I was right. Three of his men are whipping me on my back," malamig niyang wika.

May their presence be found among the three men who mercilessly thrashed Zarcaen, standing alongside those unfortunate souls whose heads met the edge of my blade.

"And the reason could be?" I asked as I changed to another cotton again to clean the dry blood on his back.

"Simple. He wants me to suffer," he answered without any emotions.

His answers are enough. I don't want him to answer me if he is not comfortable or he may feel like I am forcing him to answer my personal questions. I may be a queen in this kingdom but nothing will change the fact that I'm an intruder. Trust cannot be forced, but be earned instead.

"And— oh, what was that?"

Agad kong pinalo ang kamay niya nang masagi ang dibdib ko. May foam ang damit na sinusuot ko kaya hindi na ako nag-atubiling magsuot ng bra. Pero talagang demonyo 'yung kamay niya.
