(POV Reichel)
Pagkababa ko ng phone, inirapan ko si Sage. Hindi nakakatuwa na binabato niya ko ng kung ano anong gamit.
"Papansin ka ba? Bakit ka naghuhurementado? Alam mo na may kausap ako sa phone di ba?"
"Tsk!"
"Isa pang physical assault mo sa akin, tatamaan ka talaga sa akin. Just so you know, hindi ka magheheal agad sa kalokohan na ginagawa mo."
"Si Rave ba ang pinalit mo sa asawa mo after ng ilang buwan?"
"How did you know? Am I that obvious?"
"I don't care if you are fucking each other."
"You don't care? Ouch, nasasaktan naman ako babe, wag kang ganyan babe," sabi ko habang unti unting lumalapit kay Sage.
"Don't you dare call me babe..."
"Di ba yun ang tawag mo sa akin? You always call me babe," mahina kong sabi sabay upo sa lap niya.
I even put my arms around him para asarin siya, but this time, he is expressionless. Di ko alam kung galit or natutuwa siya sa akin.
"You can't seduce me Reichel Amber. I won't fuck you even if you beg me to."
"Ganun? Don't you know I missed you demon king? I missed your touch and I missed your kiss," sabi ko sabay haplos sa mukha niya.
"Stop it..."
"I can't stop, it has been ages since I saw you, my dear husband. Why would you like me to stop? Don't you missed after all this time?" sabi ko while gently kissing his ears and neck.
Alam ko inaasar ko lang si Sage sa mga oras na yun but I can't also stop myself from touching his chest. Siguro nga, I really missed him. Hindi pa ko na kontento, I tried to undo his pants pero mabilis niyang pinigilan ang mga kamay ko.
"I said stop!"
"Yung totoo, gusto ko tumigil?"
"Kanina ko pa sinasabi di ba?"
"But those eyes of yours are filled with hunger. You want me, admit it..."
Di ko pinansin ang kanyang half hearted refusal at patuloy ko na hinahalikan ang kanyang leeg. My hands can't stop from touching him and I noticed that his hands are slowly caressing every part of me. I gently bite his earlobe which made moaned as if it sends a delicious chill throughout his body.
"Akala ko ba ayaw mo?" sabi ko kay Sage at bigla akong tumayo from his lap.
"What the hell!"
"Good night, Sage. Matutulog na ko. May tatlong bakanteng kwarto sa taas, bahala ka pumili kung anong gusto mo," sabi ko kay Sage sabay akyat sa second floor ng mansion ni Matthias.
"You just seduced me? Son of a bitch!"
"Akala ko ba I can't seduce you? Hindi ka consistent Sage."
"You're a fucking bitch. I want to kill you right now," sabi ni Sage sabay bato ng isang photo frame sa direction ko na mabilis ko naiwasan.
"FYI lang, the barrier is connected to me. Any attempt to escape from your part, I will definitely know it. Again, good night babe!"
Sage is right, he does not care about me anymore. Kung ano man na pagmamahal na meron siya para sa akin, naglaho na yun simula nang maging demon siya. That is the main difference between a human being and a demon.
A demon is not capable of falling in love, siguro exception yung pagmamahal ni Azaroth kay Xi Wu, kung love nga ba na matatawag yun or plain obsession.
I was about to sleep nang biglang lumabas si Toothless from my white diamond necklace. When I opened my eyes, nakita ko si Sage na nakatayo sa harap ng pintuan ko.
"May kailangan ka ba?" tanong ko sa kanya.
He probably opened the door at balak niya akong patayin habang natutulog ako, pero ngayon lang niya na realized na nag cast ako ng isa pang layer of barrier spell in my room para hindi siya makapasok.
"Hindi ako makatulog..."
"And? Problema ko ba yun?"
"Gusto ko ng milk..."
"Ano ka baby? Aba, bumaba ka sa kitchen, may milk sa fridge."
"Kuha mo ko..."
"Kumuha ka sa baba, malaki ka na. Matutulog na ko, pakisara yung pinto. Yung murder attempt mo sa akin, hindi mangyayari yun because you will not be able to get inside my room. Do you think I am such a fool to trust you? At saka andito si Toothless. This dragon can tear you into shreds if I want to."
Sinara ni Sage ang pinto at umalis. Now I know that he still wants to kill me in my sleep.
