Vanessa's POV
THE LIGHTS inside the mansion was reflecting here outside. At first, I wasn't expecting that—having this kind of house even if you cheated.
I threw my can beer somewhere and messed my hair. I once glanced at my car. It is hidden by a bunch of trees.
I could not help not to sigh while glancing at my car. I know that Eric is still in pain though he's lying to me.
He kept smiling or joking around to distract me but I know that all of it was a lie. He wants to help me to finish Emperor that's why he's pretending as if he's alright.
But I can't stand looking at him . . . in pain.
I just gave him a smile as if he's lookibg at me with that I walked forward. I've caught the guard's attention when they heared my shoes' noise
They get their guns from their pockets and aim it at my direction. I stopped from walking and pretended to be shock or whatever
I even raised my hand to continue my glamorous act "Whoa, whoa!"
'Acting as if I'm cool is not my thing, tsk. Fuck these guards.'
"Ibaba mo ang mga armas mo!"
The fuck?! Did they just told to drop my fuckin' weapon? The hell, I am the Mafia Queen, jerks!
"Come on!" I rolled my eyes like a teenager "I have an important meeting with your boss, Emperor."
They slowly stare at each other, assuring that I'm telling the truth "What?" I shrugged
The other guard clicked something from his earpiece "There's a visitor here," he glanced at me "Gusto daw makita si boss."
I put my hands down to my buttocks. Mind you, I'm wearing a pants wherein I hid my guns.
He glanced at me with his knotted eyebrows "Ano?!"
Before the other guard pull the trigger at my direction, I get my gun from my pocket and aim it at him.
While the other one ran towards my direction. As I pull the trigger, I gripped on this guard's neck.
Eric gave me his ring with torns. He told me that he bought this ring for me because he knows how dangerous my life is because I'm the Mafia Queen.
He screamed in so much pain as his blood from his neck was falling down to his shirt.
I used my gun without silencer, of course I don't need that but Eric does. I am not afraid if many men or even his organization attack me.
Bitch, I'm the Mafia Queen after all. So what is silencer for? Tss.
Eric's POV
"PUTRAGIS, Vannie!"
Pagkarinig 'ko ng malakas na putok ng baril ni Vannie ay napatalon ako sa kinauupuan 'ko.
Nadali 'ko tuloy yung sugat sa abs ko! "Takte ka talaga Vannie!" Bulong 'ko
Kung makapagsabi na ingatan 'ko daw ang sarili ko o kung ano man siya naman hindi nag iingat!
Alam niyo 'yon? Kainis!
Tinignan 'ko muli ang laptop ni Vannie. Plano 'ko talaga 'to, s'yempre mabait akong kaibigan e. Hihihi.
May dinikit ako sa damit ni Vannie, cen—hindi 'ko alam tawag e basta nalalaman 'ko kung may mga tao sa paligid niya.
English yung tawag e, tsk! Malay ko ba!
Nung una ay ayaw ni Vannie kasi daw ang cheap daw pero asa siya 'no.
Kaya ito, wala siyang nagawa. S'yempre, sino ba namang tatanggi sa gwapong ako 'no?
Pero bukod don sa maliit na nakakabit sa damit ni Vannie, mayroon pa akong plano na hindi talaga dapat malaman ni Vannie
'Kahit alam 'kong mapapatay niya 'ko. Hehehe.'
Kinuha 'ko ang phone 'ko mula sa dashboard at tinawagan ang babaeng pinakamamahal 'ko.
"Ano ba naman 'yan, napakatagal sag—!" natapos ang pagri-ring at natikom ang madaldal 'kong bibig
'Takte, sinagot niya!'
Napakunot noo ako kasi hindi siya nagsasalita sa kabilang linya. Lumunok muna ako bago magsalita
"Hi Jaime babe!"
Nakangiting bati 'ko pero wala akong natanggap na sagot sa kaniya "Ah, hi?"
Ano 'bang nangyari sa kaniya? Nashock ba siya kasi may napakagwapong tumawag sa kaniya?
[E-eric?] Hala, sumagot siya! May ipagmamayabang na naman ako kay Vannie!
Ngumisi tuloy ako dahil 'don "Hi Jaime babe! Namiss mo 'ko? Ako din! Labyu!" Hinalikan 'ko pa ang phone 'ko
Napansin 'kong hindi na naman siya nagsalita "Jaimeeee?" Malambing 'kong tawag
[B-bakit mo 'ko t-tinawagan?] Teka umiiyak ba siya?
"Umiiyak ka? Sinong nagpaiyak sa'yo? Iuuntog 'ko sa abs 'ko! Sabihin mo sa'kin, sino?!"
'Lagot sa'kin yung gagong 'yon!'
Natigil naman ako sa pag iisip kung anong gagawin 'ko don sa gagong 'yon nang marinig 'ko ang paghikbi niya "J-jaime?"
[B-bakit ba?]
Ibubuka 'ko sana ang bibig 'ko para magsalita nang napatingin ako sa laptop no Vannie "Takte, takte!"
Nagsisigaw na 'ko sa loob ng sasakyan [E-eric? Anong nangyayari?!]
Syete! Napakadaming tao ang nakapaligid sa likod ni Vannie! Taragis!
"Jaime? Makinig ka." Biglang nanginig ang kamay 'ko na ipinanghahawak 'ko sa phone 'ko "Kailangan ng back up ni Vannie ngayon. Kailangan paatakihin ang Briones organization ngayon." Mahinang sabi 'ko
[B-bak—]
"Jaime, madaming kalaban si Vanessa! Mamatay siya!" Kinuyom 'ko ang kamay 'ko "Treisan Koaiel Village. Andito si Vanessa at—" biglang nanlaki ang mga mata 'ko dahilan upang matigil ang pag sasalita 'ko
Bumalik ang kaba at ang mga alaala na dinanas 'ko noon nang makita 'ko ang grupo ng mga kalalakihan na naglalakad papunta sa direksyon 'ko.
"V-vannie . . ."
[Eric? Eric?! Anong nangyayari?!] Tanging boses na lamang ni Jaime ang nagsisilbing ingay sa sasakyan "J-jaime. Yung s-sinabi 'ko sa'yo,"
"N-ngayon na . . ."
