BLOODFEUD 1

Kabanata 2

Kabanata 2

I stared at the man who's looking on the ground seriously. The one who shouted earlier and nonchalantly introduced himself as their founder.

Habang tumatagal ang titig ko ay lalo siyang nagiging pamilyar.

He look attractive just by his stern face. His thick brows were slightly furrowed. He bit his lower lip, thinking something deep. I transfixed my glance when he instantly lifted his head.

Tumingin ako sa pinsan na papalapit. I silently cursed because I can feel someone's staring.

"Traffic? Natagalan ka," Mako said when he reached me.

I shook my head before getting off from my motor. I leaned on it while holding my hard and black helmet. I wore the hood of my hoodie jacket after I took off my helmet.

"Hindi, may tinapos lang," I answered casually.

Dumapo ang mga mata ko sa likod niya nang makita ang isang pinsan na papalapit. Nakaawang ang bibig ni Kael na tila hindi makapaniwala.

"Ang lakas din ng loob mo 'no?" Kael mocked me.

"Alam mo 'yan," I smirked and shrugged.

Nasapo niya ang noo habang naiiling na ngumisi.

"And you two didn't even f*****g inform me."

Mako pointed me, blaming me for not telling it to him. Well, I guess it's better. They literally didn't expect that a girl invaded their brotherhood.

Now, I need to know who's the exact owner of dagger.

"Mako," a guy behind called him.

I can see myself beside him, towering me because of his height. He's tall, dark, and handsome. I saw the pair of his playful eyes but with a glint of seriousness.

"Did the association knew that she entered the Bloodfeud?" he asked perplexedly to Mako.

"Oo, Magnus," my cousin nodded. "I even got shock because I entered her real name... but still, the Domina approved it."

My brows furrowed while listening to their conversation. What the f**k are they talking about? I looked at them perplexedly.

"Really?" Magnus' eyes widened. "But how come? She's a girl and it's on the rules."

"I'm doubting at first too," Mako shrugged. "I don't know."

Magnus' intense eyes darted to me curiously. Nanliliit ang mata niya na para bang nag-oobserba. Pinantayan ko ang titig niya.

Kahit naman ako ay walang alam. Sa totoo lang, sa buong pinag-u-usapan nila ay wala akong kahit anong ideya.

Maybe Mako didn't tell me the other things connected to this brotherhood. I turned to my cousin instantly. I was about to ask him when we heard a loud sound from a car approaching.

A black suv parked in front of the gazebo. Maybe they are Bloodfeud members too. Two men who has a great built like the other members get off from the car.

Nakatalikod sila sa banda namin kaya hindi ko makita ang mga mukha nila. Mestiso ang nauuna habang ang isa ay moreno. Their hair are disheveled and the ends are like poison noodles.

Bagsak ang balikat nila at parang tamad na naglalakad palapit sa tinititigan ko kanina.

"What the f**k happened?" Laxner asked while laughing hard.

"f**k you," the moreno guy drawled.

"Giusteo-"

Hindi niya na natuloy ang sasabihin dahil sa pagtawa. Laxner was the only one who's laughing. The founder was glaring with his piercing eyes on the two of them.

Lumingon sa isa't isa sina Magnus at Kael na parehong salubong ang mga kilay. Naglakad sila patungo roon, marahil na rin sa kuryosidad.

Mako stayed beside me but he's smirking. Maybe he got an idea on what's happening.

"Who are they?" I asked him quietly.

"Giusteo and Terviel," he drawled lazily.

I nodded and transfixed my glance back to them. Madilim ang tingin sa kanila ng founder. Humahalakhak na rin sina Magnus at Kael pagkarating sa gawi nila.

"Looks like I don't need to ask what happened," the founder smirked sarcastically with his eyes sharpened.

"Pero hindi sila mga Prome," ani Giusteo at kumamot sa ulo.

Salubong ang kilay ko habang nakikinig. Wala pa rin akong kahit anong ideya.

"What?" founder asked perplexedly. "Who are they?"

"They are girls," Terviel said slowly.

Napaawang ang bibig ng ilan sa kanila roon. Nanatiling nanlilisik ang mga mata ng founder.

"Ano? Tapos ganyan ang mga mukha niyo?" iritadong tanong niya. "Ginagago niyo ba 'ko?"

"Hindi," Giusteo raised his hands. "Ramdam namin sa pangangatawan nila tsaka... natanggal ko ang maskara sa mukha ng isa kanila."

"What's her name?" Laxner asked.

My brows furrowed more when I heard it. What the f**k? I immediately shifted in my stance.

The two of them must be included from our opponents earlier. I slowly grabbed a rock stone from the ground. I hold it tight because of annoyance.

"I heard people around shouting Solasta," Terviel answered him.

Giusteo nodded. "Azea Solast-,"

"You fucker-" mariin kong sabi.

Paglingon niya ay saktong itinaas ko ang kamay para ihagis ang bato. Diretso iyong lumipad papunta sa kaniya. Malutong akong napamura ng madali niya iyong nasalo.

Ang kamao niya ay sarado sa harap ng mukha kung nasaan ang bato. Dahan-dahan niya iyong ibinaba na nanlalaki ang mata sa akin.

"What the f**k? Who are you?" he asked with his eyes widened.

Nakaawang ang bibig ni Terviel at nanlalaki rin ang mga mata sa gulat. I can see his adams apple moving because of swallowing hard continuously.

Sunod-sunod niyang tinapik ang balikat ni Giusteo.

"S-She's Hattie's friend, the-,"

"What the heck?!"

Giusteo raised his hands in front and walked back a bit.

"Kilala niyo siya?" malamig na tanong habang direktang nakatingin sa mata nila.

I pursed my lips to contain a laugh. What the f**k? Giusteo's right eye is like a f*****g rotten thing. The black eye cause by Azea can vividly see. I hid the humor in myself with a cold expression.

Plus, they are suspicious. How and why did they?

Nanatili ang iritasyon sa loob ko kahit na kalmadong nakatingin sa kanila. Dumiretso ako ng tayo habang malamig na nakatitig sa kanila.

I was about to run towards them and punch their faces but Mako stopped me. He hold my arm and he shook his head.

"We are exposed because of him," inis kong tugon kay Mako. "Let f*****g go."

"There's a reason behind," he whispered.

I leered then he let me go. I glared the two of them for a while. They are f*****g irritating, tss.

"Nilumpo mo na, Leuxia," natatawang sabi ni Kael. "'Wag ka na umisa pa."

"f**k you, Kael," Terviel hissed.

Giusteo turned to them. "What is she doing here?"

They members looked to each others before frowning. The founder transfixed his glance on me.

Silence crept us.

"The new member," Magnus blurt out.

"What?!" the two asked in unison with their surprised face.

"A girl f*****g entered our brotherhood," the founder said while staring at me.

Nakatitig sa akin ang dalawa, na gaya ng kanina, mga gulat ang mukha.

I looked away before breathing heavily. I need to calm down. It looks like, joining this group will be enjoying huh? And a challenge also.

"Paanong-," hindi maituloy ni Giusteo ang sasabihin niya.

They shrugged without even Giusteo, finishing his question. I don't know either, on how Mako did so I can enter this f*****g group.

Nawala ang atensyon ko sa kanila nang makita ang pamilyar na tao galing sa loob ng mansion. Nagsalubong ang kilay ko habang nakatitig sa kaniya.

Tumingin siya sa dalawang nasa gazebo. Nagtanguan lang sila bago siya napabaling sa direksyon ko.

His eyes widened when he saw me.

"Leuxia?" gulat na untag ni Vren.

Tinanguan ko siya kahit na nagtataka pa rin. Anong ginagawa niya rito? Isa rin sa mga miyembro?

He walked quickly towards my direction. I've heard what happened to them.

"Where's Levior?" he immediately asked.

"Hindi mo alam," I obviously said.

Nanatili siyang nakatingin sa akin. Ang mga member ng Bloodfeud ay nakatingin din sa gawi namin.

"Can you tell me where?" he pleaded. "Please..."

"My sister doesn't want to tell you since you don't have any idea," I paused. "So I won't tell it too."

Bagsak ang balikat niya habang pagod na tumango.

I smiled a bit because he respects my decision. I'm not in the position to tell it to him. Maybe Ate Alexia has a deep reason on why she chose to stay away from him. I won't let it out.

"Naiintindihan ko," tumango siya. "Can you ask her if she's okay?"

"Of course I will," I said sarcastically. "She's my sister."

He smirked a bit, looks like remembering something.

"I know, you two are really sisters."

He turned his back and walked towards his car. He's really patient. I wonder why Ate Alexia did it?

She's staying on Santuario for a year until now. Kaya bihira nalang kami magkita. Kasama niya ang iba naming pinsan doon.

Sila Mako at Kael lang ang naiwang lalaki sa aming magpipinsang Levesque. Lahat ay nasa sa Santuario ngayon.

The members of the brotherhood looking at me with their brows furrowed. Maybe they are wondering why we talked like that.

Looks like Vren is not a member.

"Bakit narito rin si Vren?" pabulong na tanong ko kay Mako.

"He's Trevan's cousin like Magnus," he answered.

"Who's Trevan?" I asked perplexedly.

Tumingin ako ulit sa mga nasa gazebo. They are talking silently and sometimes looking on our direction.

"The founder," Mako said.

I nodded slowly on it. His name isn't familiar to me, but his face was a little bit.

I glanced again on his direction. His brows were furrowed while listening closely to Magnus' words.

Umiwas ako ng tingin at napapikit nang mariin. Why the f**k it seems like I'm enjoying staring at his face. What the f**k?

I only felt it before, with someone who f*****g sucks.

Not a f*****g love that the most are talking about. It's just a infatuation. For a f*****g chilhood crush? There's no love on it.

"We still need a test? Hindi ba pwedeng pruweba na yung lagay ni Terviel?" humalakhak si Laxner.

"Let's wait for the other members," Trevan said and leaned on a metal chair.

I swallowed when his piercing eyes darted on me. Tss.

Tumingin ako sa side mirror ng motor ko nang malasahan ang dugo sa labi. I saw a bit dry blood on my lower lip because of a cut. I licked to make it wet.

Medyo mahapdi siya nang mabasa ko iyon. Though, it's bearable. It's just a small cut. My lower lip reddened more without any lip product because of it.

I suddenly want to get that f*****g dumbass who was able to hit me. But now, I can't clearly remember his face.

Nakarinig kami ng magkasunod na tunog ng sasakyan. Pero nanatili ang tingin ko sa salamin ng motor. Nakasuot ang hood ko kaya hindi kita ang mukha ko mula sa direksyon nila.

Maybe a bit of my nose and eyes or my sideview face. I let it like that since they don't know me right now.

Agad akong nakarinig ng ingay nang mawala ang tunog mula sa mga sasakyan.

"What the hell?!" natatawang untag ni Kael.

"Oh f*****g s**t," I heard Trevan's frustrated voice.

"What's with the-," Laxner laughed. "Nilugmok kayo ng Prometheus?"

Out of curiousity, I shifted my eyes to them.

"Damn," I silently cursed when I saw them.

Darn it, Avior Leuxia. I f*****g messed up.

"May backup ba?" natatawang tanong ni Mako kaya napalingon sila sa gawi namin.

Halos malaglag ang panga nila at lumuwa ang mga mata sa gulat nang mapatingin sa akin. Natutula sila saglit bago natauhan.

"What the f**k is she doing here?" the man frustratedly asked.

"Why, Killian?" Magnus asked him. "But before that, did the Promes beated you all up? What happened, Bloodfeud?"

Sabay-sabay silang umiling at napamura. Of course not, they are not beaten up by that f*****g Prome you are talking.

"Then who?" Trevan asked irritatedly.

Malamang ay malaki ang iritasyon sa kaniya ngayon. Halos buong brotherhood niya ay baldado dahil sa hindi katanggap-tanggap na tao para sa kanila.

"Siya!" ani ng chinito habang nakaturo sa akin.

"Zyon, are you f****d up?" Trevan asked sarcastically.

"Napuruhan ata pati utak," Kael mocked his co-member then he laughed.

Zyon immediately shook his head. I smirked on it. The other members just arrive nodded continuously, agreeing with Zyon.

"Zyon was telling the truth," a moreno guy said.

I surveyed their faces. They are still looking good and alluring with their bruises and cuts. I pursed my lips to contain a laugh.

"Shut the f**k up, Lenus," Trevan glared at him.

"It's f*****g true," a member said. "The Promes now are also beaten up."

Imbis na maniwala ay lalong nairita si Trevan. Masamang titig na ibinigay niya sa mga miyembro.

"And you expect me to believe that? She's only one against the all of you and the Promes? Are you f*****g dumb?!" he exclaimed in irritation.

I smirked on it. I don't like how they look down on what level just a woman can do.

There's no limit of what a woman can do. They should learn feminism and stand for equality. I hate their indirect insults.

Feminism isn't about to strengthen women. Women are already strong. It's about changing the way how society look and perceive that strength.

Tss, break the norm.

"May kasama siya."

"Who the f**k?" Magnus asked with brows furrowed.

"Azea, I guess?" ani Zyon.

"And a f*****g girl too?" tanong ni Laxner na hindi makapaniwala.

Napatingin sila kina Kael at Mako na tumawa bigla. Napailing nalang ako sa mga pinsan.

"Naniniwala na ako," Mako said before laughing again.

Tumango si Kael habang nakataas ang kamay. Naiiling na tumingin sina Giusteo at Terviel kay Trevan na para bang sinasabing totoo iyon.

"Sino ang nakalaban ni Azea?" Giusteo asked in a sudden.

"The Promes."

Maybe it's another hood?

"I can't believe this," Trevan shook his head. "Kung tapusin ko kaya 'to? Babae lang natalo kayong lahat? Natalo kayo ng isa?"

"Don't underestimate," I blurt out.

I really hate hearing words that belittles women. Men are just overestimating themselves.

"Really?" he looked away. "Perhaps, they are distracted because of your face. You probably took an advantage."

"I don't need to break it to you, but..." I smirked mockingly. "I beat up Terviel and his dog with a mask on."

Dinig ko ang singhap ng ibang miyembro. Pati na ang malutong na mura ni Terviel nang marinig iyon.

I leered when I heard Mako laughing beside me.

"I still don't believe it," Trevan drawled. "I want to see it with my own eyes."

I silently cursed on my mind. I'm f*****g tired. Kanina pa sumasalubong ng mukha ang kamao ko.

"Sino naman ang lalaban?" Mako asked perplexedly.

They all looked around but no one volunteered. I heard Trevan's hissed.

"We'll wait for the other one and last member to arrive," Magnus said. "Wala pa naman siya at mukhang walang ideya, isa pa ay halatang walang may gusto sa inyo."

Kulang pa sila ng isa. Marami rin pala ang miyembro ng grupong 'yon. Kaya rin pala nahirapan kami ni Azea kanina.

They are members of a f*****g hood. Obviously, they knew how to fight.

"Wait, why do you want to see it live, Trevan? And what is she doing here?" a member asked.

"She's the new member, Kaiden," Trevan answered. "And yes for the second time, a girl f*****g entered our hood."

Lahat sila ay mabagal na napailing nang marinig iyon. Sunod-sunod na malulutong na mura ang umalingawngaw sa paligid.

Their f*****g ego is now at risk. Funny men.

"A f*****g new member beat almost the Bloodfeud. I can't believe it," Laxner shook his head while looking at me.

I leered because all of them are staring at me confusedly. Others are still surprise on it.

I licked on my lower lip when I suddenly remembered my cut on it. I glanced again on the members. Who the f**k on them punched me?

My eyes surveyed them all but I can't still f*****g remember it. Others are looking away immediately when I met their eyes. I was about to open my mouth for a question but Laxner suddenly stood.

"While we are waiting, why don't let her do the other test?" he asked them.

They all nodded at him before they glanced on me. My brows furrowed when I heard it.

"What test?" I asked them.

"Do you have any talent? Can you show us some?" Magnus asked slowly.

I raised my brow when I heard it. What the f**k? Is this a f*****g contest? Heck, I didn't enter this group to be an entertainer when they are bored.

"Hindi ko alam kung circus ba ang nasalihan ko o brotherhood," nanunuyang untag ko. "Nagpapatawa ba kayo?"

They all laughed when they heard it. Seriously?

"No," Magnus chuckled. "Talents are wide. You can use it against the opponent in creative and different ways. Sometimes, it's an advantage, Leuxia."

Nanliit ang mga mata ko sa kaniya. I get what he's pointing out. Now this group makes sense huh?

Tumango ako sa luminga sa paligid ng gazebo. Nanatili ang tingin ko sa gitara sa gilid.

"I can sing and play guitar," I shrugged.

"Show it," Laxner said.

I frowned before getting the guitar from Kael who handed it towards me. Do I really need to do this f*****g s**t?

I pursed my lips before strumming its first beat. Well, it's okay since I don't care about them around me.

"Let me escape in your arms

Baby I'm yours, baby I'm yours

Love don't come easy at all

I miss you so much, I miss you so much"

I surveyed quickly the members around. They are all listening quietly. My eyes darted to Trevan who's staring at me seriously.

I winced before continuing it.

"Tell me is this freedom, baby?

Chasing after danger, making my heart beat, woah

Maybe if the stars align, maybe if our world's collide

Maybe on the dark side we can be together, be together"

I suddenly remembered him again. The one I was imagining while I'm playing and listening this song before.

"Maybe in a million miles, on the highway through the skies

Someday soon we'll be together"

I can feel unexplainable inside me. Especially while remembering it now. Some good and f****d up memories.

I heard a car approaching but the members didn't move. They are still listening so I continued singing.

"He was a dreamer at heart

Chasing the stars, chasing the stars

Rain spread to the sun

I miss you so much, I miss you so much"

I saw a shadow near the entrance of gazebo. I looked to see who it is but suddenly wished that I didn't. I stopped strumming when I saw who it was.

Tumahimik ang paligid dahil tumigil ako sa pagkanta at napatitig sa kaniya. The good old days suddenly flashback inside my mind.

Dahil doon ay napatingin din ang mga member sa kaniya. Humigpit ang kapit ko sa gitara habang nakatitig sa kaniya.

I don't know if I can't feel anything, or I'm just reminiscing the old days. The man that I liked before is the member of Bloodfeud that we are waiting.

He was the one I remembered while singing.

I liked him but turned down by my sister for several times. And I saw it every time.

"Yuno!"
