Alpha and the b***h

Chapter 19

Naramdaman ko ang matinding kirot na tila sasabog ang ulo ko. The pain goes on until a soft caressess make it lessen.

"Hmmm"

Nagpatuloy iyon. Until I felt warmth on my cheek. The warmth went to my forehead. Then to my lips. Nagtagal ang init na iyon sa labi ko.

"Hmmm"

I tried hard to open my tired eyes . Ang namulatan ko ay isang bagay na blurry. Its too close on my face. Seconds later my senses became vivid . May pamilyar na pakiramdam ang nasa malapit sakin. Hanggang sa unti unting luminaw ang aking paningin

Its Vander!!

Nakalapat sa labi ko ang mga labi niya! Itutulak ko na sana siya pero doon na siya lumayo.

May naglalarong ngiti sa labi niya and I was in shock! Bakit niya ako hinalikan?!

"f**k y..."

"I'll explain baby" he got a sheepish and shy smile

Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin.

"Explain"

Dahan dahan akong bumangon ng marealize ko na nasa kama ako sa loob ng hindi pamilyar na kuwarto.

"You know in fairytales ... the prince kiss the princess to wake up. You did."

Hindi ko pinansin ang sinabi niya. I tried to remember everything else bago ako nawalan ng malay.

"Isabel.. where are they?"

Inalalayan ako ni Vander sa pag tayo dahil bahagya pa lang akong nahihilo.

"Sa baba sila. There's someone who want to talk to you. Are you good now? Bubuhatin kita."

Tinignan ko lamang siya. Pinakiramdaman ko ang paligid.

Its steady now.

"Kaya ko. Hindi na ako nahihilo. Bring me to them"

Naglakad kami palabas sa isang malawak na hallway. May ganitong lugar ba sa Deniva?

"Where are we?"

Vander smiled .

"You Don't remember the place?"

What? Tinignan kong muli ang paligid. Its a wide old mansion. Those pillars. The smell. Wait... the smell.

"Are we in mistletoe !?"

He smiled widely

"Yes. In my house"

Bumaba kami ng hagdan. Habang papalapit ay may mga tinig na unti unting lumilinaw.

"That's plain stupid!!" Isang boses ng galit na matanda.

"We won't enter a battle and make everyone life at stake!"

"At tumunganga lang tayo na hintayin masakop ng mga bampira ang mundo?" Wika naman ng isang babae.

"They're growing in number. And it is not impossible now."

"There's actually 2 side of the prophecy "

They're talking about me.

"The half blood will end the vampire race. Or it will end the life existence of humans by joining the vampire force. She has it okay! Nasa mga kamay ni Cassandra ang lahat. Its either she end the vampire race or join them. "

Naririnig ko ang mga tinig mula sa kaliwang bahagi ng mansiyon pero sa ibang daan ako dinala ni Vander.

"We need to talk to her. Inform her. And convince her."

"What you think she'll want to stay here? Her vampireblood is thicker. She's a murderer remember!?"

Natigil ako sa paglalakad. Nilingon ko ang hallway kung saan naririnig ko ang mga tinig

"This way Cassandra."

Tawag sa akin ni Vander..

Ako lang ba ang nakakarinig ng mga usapan?

And what murderer? Ako ba ang sinasabi ng mga tinig? Ako ba? I can't remember a single soul that I killed. Kahit pa man kayang kaya ko iyon gawin I dont want to.

"Hey... you okay?" May pagtataka sa mukha ni Vander.

"Sino ba ang gustong kumausap sakin?"

Eksakto ang pagbukas ng pinto ilang hakbang ang layo sa akin

"Ate cassandra!?"

Its salva.

"Uhh" naramdaman ko ang katawan ni salva na yumakap sa akin.

"Ate ! Its you!" Hindi ko maiwasan matawa sa kilos niya. Na agad kong pinigilan I did something wrong on her . I hurt her that night.

"Akala ko di na kita makikita. "

humigpit ang yakap niya at hindi ko mapigilan gumanti.

"I miss you"

"Namiss din kita salva. And Im sorry for What I did that night."

"Its all okay ate. You were mad that night because kuya was being a jerk. And tanga ko din para pumayag sa plano niya. "

"Salva" sawat ni Vander na masama ang tingin.

"Too much for trying to break the bond. You happy now? Parang hindi naman. Sino bang laging naglalasing noon. Duh?"

She gave vander a roll eyes.

What? Vander tried to break the bond that night?

"Its not broken."

Napatingin ako kay vander.

"Never were.."

Tinignan ko si Vander. Nagtama ang mga mata namin at doon ko naramdaman ang pagtibok sa akin puso damn..

"Oh come on. What's with the stares?"

Nilingon ko sa likuran. It was Draco and Vince.

"God. Is. A. Woman."

I smirked at Draco who open his arms wide asking for a hug. But I felt vander's animosity behind.

I don't understand the whole thing , him being so protective and territorial over me, his care , his sweetness, I just dont get it.

"Oh . Sigi next time na lang" wika ni Draco at ibinaba ang kamay

"You look prettier and.."

"Quit it "

Natawa lang si Vince when Vander snap at him.

"So!" Napalingon kami sa mga paparating.

They were all wearing a black silky robe. 6 of them. Familiar ang ilan tulad ng matanda sa gitna which is Alastor , vander's uncle whom I met during the moon festival.

"Welcome back to mistletoe Cassandra its been a long time "

"I wasn't suppose to be here."

Naramdaman ko ang presensiya ni Isabel at Rhoan sa dulo ng pasilyo. Naka sandig si Rhoansa isang pinto at nakatayo si Isabel na tila nakikiramdam .

"So while everybody's here. Let me make an announcement. The news have reach us. The vampires preparing for a blood feast a great battle to end our existence because they want to rule the world, huff" Alastor smirk

"You're aware of the prophecy now young one?"

Hindi ako sumagot.when he noticed that I do not know what he is talking about he started telling me the stor.

"What are you doing here Kastielo? You better have some good news."

Mabalagsik na wika ng hari sa bagong dating sa kaharian. Subalit mataman lamang siyang tinitigan ng matandang babaylan. Bulag ito subalit ang nagsisilbing mata ay ang malakas na Pandama

"he's coming a new born Half blood coming from your own blood! He will end your race and the blood curse. He will be the greatest among all!"

"Tell me who are you talking about!!?" Malakas na dumagundong ang tinig ng hari.

"Tell me!"

Mabilis na hinaklit ng haring bampira ang babaylan.

"What sacrifice do we need!?"

"Pure blood from the 1st blood."

Natigilan ang hari at nabitawan ang babaylan.

"That means you need to kill your daughter."

“That is why the king asked his people to kill his own dauhghter Almira Jane to be the sacrificial lamb. Because she was expected to bear a half blooded child who will be the downfall of Romanov.at ikaw iyon. You were born earlier than expected and your mother hid you well kaya buhay ka hanggang ngayon”

Nanginig ang kalamnan ko, nanghina ang mga tuhod at nakaramdam ng sobrang galit. I remember that night, it was vampires who killed my mom! It was the king’s order?

“do not show weakness Half blood. Or else your mother’s death will all be useless. Every single second matters. We need to take action now. Papunta na ang ilan sa mga tauhan ni Romanov upang tapusin ka. "

"Being a half blood makes you extra stronger. But alone, you'll die. Napag desisyonan namin na lumaban kasama ka. "

What? Tinignan ko ang mga nasa paligid ko. And what? Die with me?

"Hell no." Nanginging man ang sistema nagawa kong tumaliwas sa ideya nila.

Naramdaman ko ang kamay ni Vander

"Don't be stupid and reckless now Cassandra. "

Sinamaan ko lang siya ng tingin.

"You know what? this stupid prophecy is a hoax how can I possibly end a vampire race? What's with me? Nothing. So will you cut this bullshit?"

"Lets do cut this bullshit. " napamata ako kay Alastor bago tumango. Good. He understands me.

"That's why we will be starting with your training as early as now to find out what's with you and you're about to end a monsters race."

What!?

"Vander take charge. Vince and Draco. Tawagan at papuntahin lahat ng mga nasasakupang lobo. Maging anag mga handang sumali sa digmaan."

"Let me join them" wika ng isang babae na nakasuot ng itim na roba. I've notice her eversince they walk to the room. She's eyeing me intently and her eerie orange brown eyes is penetrating me.

"Oh.. that's one of her ability "

Napalingon ang lahat sa kaniya .

"She has tolerance for high pain."

What?

Nakita ko ang dugo na dumadaloy sa palad ko.

Where the f**k did I get this?

"Urgh! Damn it! Isabel!!"

Nakita ko ang pag pipigil ni Rhoan kay Isabel na ngayon ay tila wala sa sarili na gustong sugurin ako. Mabilis na umalalay si Vince

"Lets bring her out of here. In the forest!"

"Damn Celestina! What have you done!!"

The woman smiled sweetly

"Nah. Just testing the b***h. Its kinda cool. Kanina ko pa siya ginamitan ng kapangyarihan ko pero hindi gumagana damn Cassandra you're cool!"

Mabilis na pinunit ni vander ang bahagi ng damit at ibinalot sa kamay ko.

"f**k it Celestina. Kararating mo lang at nang aasar ka na."

He eyed her sharply.

I can't process it. Is she a witch?

Bakit biglang nag kasugat ang kamay ko?

"At least you now know she has high pain tolerance." She winked at me and walk away.

"I hate her"
