Another Life As The Emperor's Concubine

Chapter 33

After the heated argument, everyone calmed down. Well it's not really just an argument, threatening, cursing, and almost killing are involved.

I can see the Emperor sulking at his seat, who wouldn't? He just got big middle finger sign from me.

He wants to take me back? Am I some kind of object or what?

"Emperor, are you aware that your sibling is planning a rebellion?" Diretso kong tanong kay Luther, he just raised his brow.

"Oh?"

That's it?

I sigh in disbelief. Hindi man lang ba sya nababahala sa maaaring mangyari? His Empire would fall.

Unti-unting bumuo ng konklusyon ang utak ko, everyone in the room seems unbothered. Masyado silang kalmado sa kabila ng ibinalita ko.

Base sa kanilang reaksyon, matagal na nilang alam ang pinaplano ni Drake.

Kung ganoon ay siguro naman may naisip na silang solusyon, wala nang dahilan upang makisali pa ako. I'll left everything on their hands, I won't stress myself anymore.

Kaya naman tumayo na ako mula sa pagkakaupo. "I wish you luck, King Leo, King Sean, Brother, and Emperor. I'll take my leave then." Tumango lamang sa akin ang aking ama ngunit ang tatlong binata ay hindi nagsalita, masinsinan lang na tumitig sa akin.

I gave them an awkward smile before exiting the room.

My feet found its way to our palace's fountain, I can't believe such breath taking place exist inside this fucked up world.

Kumikinang sa kalinisan ang buong paligid, it's as if the plants and flowers there have their own mind, dancing serenely with its own rhythm.

Mayumi ang galaw ng tubig sa fountain, the water is clear. It's tempting me to forget everything and just soak myself in there.

Napatingala ako sa itaas nang makarinig ng huni ng ibon. I spread my right hand forward, the white pigeon then cling to my hand before showing off the rolled paper tied on its neck.

Inabot ko ang papel at marahang pinalipad pabalik sa himpapawid ang kalapati.

I cannot help myself but to laugh with pure happiness after reading the message. The letter was from Miss Celia, iyong nag-oorganisa sa paggawa ng Farra perfume. She indicates that the production of the mentioned perfume was growing and growing. The demand was very high kaya naman malaki-laki rin ang naging kita namin.

Ah, with this money I could just runaway and start a new life. A pompous and rich life.

I'm rich bitches.

I'm in the middle of my fantasies when suddenly, someone coughed purposely. I turned my back and there stand the gorgeous King.

Nakapamulsa ito, hindi kakikitaan ng kung ano mang emosyon ang mukha. A typical straight faced motherfucker.

Inayos ko ang aking pagtayo bago marahang yumuko. "Greetings, King Sean." Itinago ko ang mensahe ni Ms. Celia sa aking gilid, the King's gaze followed the movement of my hand. He scowled.

"A letter from your lover?" Nang-uuyam nitong saad bago humakbang papalapit, still wearing his dominant aura.

Napangisi naman ako sa saad nito. "Maybe, maybe not." I said playfully before raising my eyebrows then crossing my arms.

"Still feisty, I see." He chuckled. Lumampas ang kanyang paglakad sa akin at dumiretso sa upuang gawa sa bato at komportableng umupo doon, crossing his legs.

He looked at me with those tempting eyes before patting the space next to him. "Have a seat, my lady." His voice is now calmer than usual.

I immediately sat next to him, also crossing my legs and arms before putting all of my attention to the fountain infront.

Isang mahabang katahimikan ang bumalot sa aming dalawa, no one dared to speak a word. It's not that much of a big deal since I find comfort in silence, and it's not that awkward but his intense gaze is bothering me.

I could only roll my eyes before striking the first conversation. "So how's the discussion?" I asked pertaining to their meeting kanina sa loob ng palasyo.

"Fine, I guess." He said dismissing the topic, but when he found my questioning gaze on him, napatikhim ito. "I mean, it's not like I care about that so-called rebellion, labas na ang nasasakupan ko dyan." Matigas nitong saad.

I cannot help but to chuckle. "Ah-huh? That kingdom of yours is still a part of the Empire. Gaano ka kasiguradong hindi malalagay sa alanganin ang iyong kaharian?" I asked, slightly smirking.

His tongue played at the inside of his cheek, preventing himself from smiling. "You're too concern for my Kingdom, or should I say, for me?" Hindi ko na mapigilan ang sariling mapatawa sa kanyang sinabi, he has his way on playing with his words.

"Hmm.. let's see" I said seductively before leaning towards him. Halos isang pulgada na lang ang layo ng aming mukha sa isa't-isa, I could feel his hot yet shaky breathing. His eyes widened and his Adam's apple started moving up and down.

I leaned closer, aiming to touch his lips with mine. His lips parted before closing his eyes, hoping for something more. But before we could literally kiss, I pulled myself away from him.

"You wish." I sarcastically smiled before showing him what I got. Hindi makapaniwalang bumuntong hininga ito before shaking his head humorlessly.  I waved my hand that holds the letter that Miss Celia sent.

I am a professional assassin so my instincts never fails me. Pasimpleng kinuha ni Sean kanina sa aking gilid ang papel na ito, at kung isa lamang akong ordinaryong tao ay hinding hindi ko lang ito mapapansin sapagkat swabe at pino ang kilos ng hari.

"Are you really that desperate to know what's the content of this letter?" I asked playfully, he could only growl at my remarks.

Tumayo ako at pinagpagan ang suot ngunit bago pa man ako makaisang hakbang paalis ay hinataw agad ako ng hari pabalik. Before I could even react, I already felt a soft thing on my lips.

The king fucking kissed me!
