Fated To Be

Obsession 33

This is not a simple dagger. A pureblood's blood is forged with it. Cassiopeia's blood, specifically. And there is a natural rule here, stronger blood beats the weaker ones.

"Hindi lang yan ang aabutin mo kung hindi mo ako tatantanan. Kung iniisip mong masisindak ako sa mga tulad niyo, nagkakamali ka. At paumanhin kung hindi tulad mo ang napili ni Caldrix." Ngumisi ako at hinagod siya ng tingin habang nakahandusay na siya sa sahig. "Well, I fully understand Caldrix. He got a better taste than you assumed."

"Elisa? Anong nangyari sa'yo?" bulalas ng bagong dating. Bigla akong kinabahan nang makikilala ko siya. Si Lord Herni. Sa pagkakaalam ko ay isa siyang Elder.

"That whore stabbed me suddenly! I don't want to fight her back because she's the Queen's right hand."

What a big liar she is.

Napaismid ako nang mapatingin sa akin si Lord Herni na puno ng galit.

Hindi ko inaasahang mabilis siyang susugod kaya hindi na ako nakapaghanda. Inaasahan kong masasaktan ako ngunit ihip lang ng hangin ang aking naramdaman.

Napatingin ako sa pader at nakitang kasalukuyang hawak na ni Sir Ares Knight ang leeg ni Lord Herni.

"Uh-oh. I'm afraid, I cannot not let you," pagbabanta nito sa kanya at marahas na binitawan.

"That bitch hurt my daughter," pag-iimporma ni Lord Herni.

"Really? I saw the whole thing. I was about to fetch my right hand earlier, but this happened." Napatingin kami kay Cassiopeia nang bigla itong sumulpot.

Napatingin siya kay Elisa kaya napaismid ito.

"You little devil. How dare you threatened and attacked my right hand? Is it because you're confident that your father will back you up like what he did several times because of your stupidity?"

Napayuko si Elisa.

"I'm sorry, Queen Cassiopeia. Nadala lang ako ng aking emosyon."

"Emosyong mapaghanggad. I do love being the bringer of bad news, so here's the tea, your little daddy can't rescue you anymore for some reasons."

"Anong ibig mong sabihin?" tanong ni Elisa at napatingin siya kay Lord Herni.

Pumalakpak si Cassiopeia na parang baliw.

"He's no longer an Elder. Bad news, isn't it?" Humalakhak siya nang malakas na nagpatulala kay Elisa, samantalang napayuko lang si Lord Herni.

Bigla akong hinila ni Cassiopeia pabalik sa silid ni Caldrix at iniwan ang mag-ama.

"I love how you got that bitch' belly. Bullseye. It will hurt a while," nakakalokong sabi niya.

Napahilot ako sa aking sentido. Nandoon siya kanina tulad ng sabi niya, ngunit hinayaan niya lang ako?

"You already know how to fight back, don't you?"

"You just wanted me to thank you for training me back then," bagot kong puna sa kanya. "So, thanks."

"You do know me. But still, I'm glad that your training isn't just a waste of my time."

"I want to ask you something, Cassiopeia," seryoso kong sambit kaya napatikhim siya.

"Again, it's Queen Cassiopeia. But anyway, if you're going to ask me about what that bitch told you, I'm not going to answer you."

Napadaing ako dahil sa sinabi niya.

"I'm not your mate. I'm your queen and you're my right hand. I make demands, and you fulfill. It's not the other way around, dear."

Inirapan ko lang siya.
