"Ae bakit mo nga ako nagustuhan?"
"That question again?"
"Ah basta sagutin mo na lang yung tanong ko"
"Well... dahil ikaw ay ikaw"
"Eh? Ano ba namang klaseng sagot yan. Tss sige ako na nga lang ang mauuna. Ako nagustuhan kita kasi unang araw palang ng magkita tayo inakit mo na kaagad ako"
"What the hell? Kelan kita inakit? At sa paanong paraan?"
"Its your cold stare"
"Kelan pa naging mapang akit yun? Hindi ba dapat nainis ka pa"
"Hmm basta, inakit mo ako eh"
"Ang weird mo talaga. Hindi ba pwedeng nagkacrush ka lang sa akin or na love at first sight. Please don't use that term coz its sounds like I'm a hooker"
"Hala grabe ka naman. Sige na nga hindi mo na ako inakit pero ginayuma mo naman ako hahaha"
"And this time you made me a witch huh. Wala na bang mas worst pa jan?"
"Okay okay, biro lang Ae. Ito seryoso na, ikaw ang nagustuhan kong babae dahil nabubukod tanggi ka. Not because you're different from us but because you're insanely kind. Parati mong inuuna ang iba kesa sa sarili mo though hindi ko rin laging nagugustuhan yun dahil minsan ay maaari mong ikapahamak ang ginagawa mo. Wala pa akong nakikilalang kagaya mo Ae, honestly speaking. You're really one of kind kaya sobrang swerte ko, so ayun hehe, yun na ang explanation ko. Hindi ko na kasi pwedeng isa isahin ang mga reasons ko dahil given na super ganda at super cool mo at baka abutin rin tayo ng taon sa sobrang dami. It's your turn now Ae"
"Well for me, I don't actually have specific reason why. Tulad nga ng sabi ko, ginusto kita dahil ikaw ay ikaw. I don't need Chris Evans, Alex Pettyfer or Noah Centineo but I need Harrison Gabe Lee. Ikaw lang ang nag iisang Harrison Gabe Lee sa mundo. The only guy who can make my heart beats a bigtime"
"Woah okay that's so- uhm well wala na talaga akong masabi Ae but thank you so much. I love you so much Ae"
"I love you too H"
"No I love you more" he tightened the hug and then kissed me on my cheeks.
"Hmm makiki pagpaligsahan ka na naman ba?"
"Haha ofcourse not. Its a fact Ae. Mas inlove na inlove kaya ako sayo no at hindi ako magsasawang mahalin ka hanggang sa dulo" then he pinched my nose.
"We don't know if you're still going to love me in the future"
"Baka naman ikaw ang hindi" nakasimangot niyang sagot.
"Oh well baby trust me, I can love you forever"
...
"We're here your majesty" napadilat naman ako kaagad ng magsalita na si Xero.
Nasa safe house na pala kami.
"Does the shipments arrived?" I asked him.
"Yes your grace. Brouzard already check all the weapons and they're ready"
"Good. Send an immediate signal to the other group we're leaving in an hour" Ito na ang araw na pinakahihintay ko. Ang araw na mapapabagsak ko na ang demonyong si Dragomir.
We prepared for this in a long time and I think we're ready. I gained more allies this time. A lot of weapons from the hunters and a lot of men from the refugees.
Ngayon Dragomir may laban na ako sayo.
Makatawag pansin naman ang iniwang isang maliit na kahon sa lamesa ko. Agad ko rin itong dinampot at binuksan.
Oh it's a beautiful dagger.
May nakaipit ding note sa kahon.
It says... BE CAREFUL ITS VENOMOUS. Use it to kill that bastard - V.A.L
It is from Tita Ann.
Maybe the old Lee have mentioned this to her.
Napangiti na lang ako. She even sent me a gift sa kabila ng pag iwan ko sa step son niya, how thoughtful of her.
But thanks to her coz this might be useful for laters battle.
"You don't really have to come with us your grace"
Inilingan ko lang si Xero. Wala na rin namang makakapigil sa akin.
"I have to. I gotta end this battle so I need you to trust me and be with me until the end"
"Alright. I'll do as you say my Queen" tinapik ko lang siya sa balikat niya at bahagyang nginitian siya pagkatapos ay agad na ako sumakay sa sasakyan.
"Greetings my Queen"
"I'm glad you're well Xalar" I greeted him back.
"What an honor to receive such words from you your highness" crap he's still an old fashioned man, well yeah he grew older now. Literally old.
"By the way how's our way inside the palace?" I asked him instead.
"All the entrance are cleared your highness. I still have some men taking care of that"
So its all been set.
Maghintay ka na lang talaga Drago.
Halos sabay lang din kami dumating ng grupo nila Xero at tama nga si Xalar. Malinis na ang magiging daan namin papasok.
Nahati kami sa apat na grupo. Isa kay Xero, they will assassinate every vampire guards inside. While Xalar is the one who'll lure the target since siya lang ang maluwag na nakakakilos sa palasyo. Also, ang humabol na si Xeff, her group will still be our mistwalker. And lastly me, the one who'll execute the target.
Saglit kong hinawakan ang kwintas na ibinigay niya sa akin bago sumenyas sa kanila hudyat ng pag atake.
The war has just started and I hope we'll win this no matter what it takes.
Walang kahirap hirap kong napasok ang palasyo ng walang nakakapansin sa akin. I'm also wearing a cloaked and mask like others kaya wala ring makakakilala sa akin.
All I need to do now is to find that asshole pero hindi rin ako pwedeng magpadalos dalos dahil baka ikasira yun ng plano namin.
Napahinto naman ako ng bigla akong harangin ng dalawang kawal. I can't say a word coz they might recognize it so I just look them in the eye and boom they let me through.
Pero bigla naman akong napakubli ng makakasalubong ko sana ang grupo ng mga elders. Hindi ko pa sila pwedeng harapin dahil maaari nila akong makilala. Sila ang pumapangalawa sa aming mga royal blood kung pagbabasihan sa lakas at kapangyarihan.
Damn it. I think there is something going on kaya nandito sa palasyo ang mga elders.
It feels like they're expecting us.
Fuck it Drago! Alam niyang susugod kami kaya niya tinipon ang Circle.
Hindi na ako nag aksaya pa ng oras at maingat na pinagbagsak isa isa ang bawat kawal na madaanan ko.
I left no trace in every kill I've made.
Mariin naman akong napalingon sa isang palace maid na nakasaksi ng ginawa kong pagsaksak sa isang kawal. Mabilis ko rin siyang nacorner at sinakal ngunit agad ko rin siyang nabitawan ng mapansin ko ang luhang tumulo sa pisngi niya.
"Forgive me your grace but please spare my life. I'm with the lord Xalar" nakayuko niyang pagmamakaawa.
"Go. Leave this place" utos ko sa kanya kaya agad siyang kumaripas ng takbo.
"La Reine we successfully sealed all his possible exit"
"Good, take care of those lowly suckers in the grand hall. I think I've found him"
Two more door until I reach his spot.
A group of palace guard are approaching my way pero hindi ko na hinintay na makalapit sila dahil ako na mismo ang sumugod. Holding my dagger I jumped on them and within an eyeblink their dead bodies fell in to the ground.
Damn it! My hands are covered with blood now.
This has to be done.
I banged the door in front of me pero kasabay din nun ang biglang malakas na pag sabog mula sa gitnang bahagi ng palasyo.
Fuck! Xeff!
Hindi pa man ako nakakabawi sa nangyare ay bigla namang may tumama sa aking maliwanag na bagay kaya naitakip ko ang braso ko sa mata ko.
Argh!
It's burning my arm's flesh!
Using my other hand I took the gun in my holster and shoots whoever's in front of me. Nawala rin naman agad ang liwanag dahil sa ginawa ko kaya kitang kita ko na ang nasa paligid ko.
I was surrounded by the Elders led by that evil bastard, Dragomir.
I see... They've prepared for this too.
"Why don't you all welcome our Queen Raven Daughn Grimaldi before we perform the ritual?...
History really repeats itself. You're gonna die in my hand, like your father"
To be continued...
Will Dragomir win again this time?
