At His Mercy (BxM,R18+)

CHAPTER 7

Sorin

"Road violator twelve o'clock. I repeat road violator," narinig kong sabi ng isang officer sa radyo.

Seriously? Kaka-assign ko lang sa bansang ito at ito na ang sasakubing sa akin? Akala ko ba kontrolado at disiplinado ito ng gobyerno?

"Location?"

"Shibunga road heading to sakura,"

Oh great. Tamang-tama papasok ako sa kalsadang iyon. Off ko ngayon at nakatakdang pupunta ko sa sementeryo upang bisitahin ang puntod ni Dad. First thing I should do since it's my off.Sigurado akong hindi na ito matutuloy.

"I got it," sagot ko sa nagsalita.

"Thanks Captain," sagot nito sa akin.

Agad kong iniharang ang aking sasakyan sa kalsada kung saan hindi ito lulusot kung sakali. Bumaba ako at sumandal sa aking sasakyan at hinihintay ko kung sino man ang violator na iyon.

Malayo pa lang ito ay naririnig na ang tunog ng isang sasakyan na mahihinuha mong isang mamahaling sports car.

"Damn rich people," bulong ko sa aking sarili.

Habang palapit ng palapit sa kinaroroonan ko ang sasakyan ay naririnig ko yung tugtog na nagmumula roon hanggang sa huminto ito mismo sa aking harapan.

It's a Mercedes-Maybach Exelero! Damn it! The driver must be super rich to be able to buy this limited edition sports car.

I heard the song blasting inside the car. It was a song that was really familiar to me.

Binuksan ng driver ang pintuan nito at saka bumaba.

Under the light of street light, kitang kita ko kung gaano ka-gwapo ang lalaking bumaba sa Exelero. Tinatangay-tangay pa ng hangin ang kanyang mahaba at kulot na buhok. Halos napanganga ako noong akala ko nga ay isang Zeus ang bumaba roon. Nakalunok ako. Pakiramdam ko ay tamang-tama yung kanta sa lalaking bumaba lalo na noong tumingin ito sa akin. His damn well fit and drop dead gorgeous

I didn't know such a guy existed.

"Done checking me out?" he arrogantly said bago nag-cross arm at nahagyang naupo sa hood ng kanyang sasakyan. Damn it. Parang yung Exelero ay talagang ginawa para lang sa taong ito. Bagay na bagay sa kanya.

Bigla tuloy akong na-conscious at inayos ang salamin sa aking mata. I feel ashamed that I openly checked him out.

"F*ck, you wanna stare at me the whole night?" tanong niya sa akin bago lumakad palapit sa akin.

Smirking.

"Or do you want to have s*x with me?" tanong nito ng makalapit siya ay nacorner niya ako mismo sa aking sasakyan.

"E-excu-se me bu-t can I see your license please?" kinakabahang tanong jo sa kanya

Tinignan niya ako mula ulo at paa.

"Are you a cop? tanong niya.

Of course I am! Bakit naman kaya kita haharangin kung hindi? Hindi lang ako naka-uniform dahil off duty ko ngayon.

"Yes I am", sagot ko sa kanya bago ipinakita ang aking police ID ng hindi tumitingin sa kanya. Everytime I look at his eyes, para bang nanghihina ang aking tuhod sa paraan ng kanyang pagtitig. As if he's making me bend on his will just by looking at those eyes.

"Captain Sorin Ezekiel?" basa niya sa aking pangalan.

"Thats me", sagot ko sa kanya.

"I can't believe such a police officer is a Gamma guy like you and a captain," nakangiting sabi niya showing his pearly white teeth which made my chest skip a lot. He's like a lion trying to show me his canines and trying to lure me to mate with him.

"G-gammas can have a decent job too," sagot ko sa kanya trying to fight the urge to jump on him.

Ipinakita niya sa akin ang kanyang License.

"Duke Castel?" hindi makapaniwalang tanong ko sa kanya.

Naalala kong na sinabi sa akin ni Chief na may bigating tao na hindi pwedeng galawin dito sa bansang ito. At naaalala kong si Duke Castel is the number one among the untouchable people. Nag-comment pa nga ako sa chief noon na bakit hindi pantay-pantay ang lahat ngunit sinabi nya na may malalim na dahilan which is confidential but according to my source, Duke Castel is the boss of the biggest Mafia. That is why I entered this department. I want to meet that untouchable boss of the Mafia group. And also, I came here for a soul reason, to kill the reigning man of the mafia.

"Kill the famous Duke Castel you will have your mom back. You deny this, you can say goodbye to her," naaalala kong utos sa akin.

Tuso ang lalaking nag-utos sa akin niyon. He grab the opportunity to use me when he learned that I have a sick mom.

"Well?" nakangiting tanong niya sa akin.

I never met Duke in person. But I heard about how ruthless he is. All his men are trained and follow him including that damn Lemuel who's always been in my ass. I don't even know if he knew me or not.

Bumuntong-hininga ako at saka ibinalik ang kanyang license.

"You're cleared Sir. Just don't think you own the road. Baka makaaksidente ka pa ng ibang motorista," sabi ko sa kanya at tumalikod.

"You're no fun," narinig kong sabi niya.

"What?" tanong ko sabay hinto sa sa ginagawa at lumingon sa kanya.

"Nothing. You bore me," sagot niya na humakbang na rin ito pabalik sa kanyang sariling mamahaling sasakyan.

The truth is I want to shoot him right now. But I don't have any idea how this arrogant bastard works. I could be dead before I could even shoot him. He didn't become the man of mafia if he's not that good in fighting

Nang sumakay na ako sa aking sasakyan at tinanggal sa pagkakaharang sa kalsada, napansin kong nakatayo at nakasandal lang siya sa kanyang sasakyan staring at me. I saw his red eyes glow under the light's moon and it made me feel uneasy. I knew what kind of alpha he is, he belongs to the rare alphas called an Elite. The direct descendant of our beastly ancestors. Cunning, dangerous and intelligent. And when those red eyes show, it's either they are in rut or they smell danger.

My guts told me to never cross paths with that guy again.

Nagpatiuna akong umalis sa lugar na iyon at ilang segundo lang ay nadaanan ako ng sasakyan ni Duke na iyon at nilampasan lamang ako bago pinasibad palayo ang sasakyan niya.

Now that I met that bastard, all I have to do is climb up so I can finish what is meant to be done or I will chicken out and escape before we cross paths again and play the game of Death.

Wala ako sa sarili noong pumunta ako ng sementeryo. Nagtirik ako ng kandila sa nitso ng papa at pagkatapos ay umalis din kaagad. Dumiretso na ako sa apartment na tinutuluyan ko. Pagkasara ko ng pintuan ay nagring ang aking cellphone na nasa loob ng suot kong coat. Agad ko iyon dinukot at tinignan ang tumatawag.

Russ calling..

Bumuntong-hininga ako at saka sinagot ko ang tawag.

"Zup?" tanong ko sa kanya.

"It's hello to you darling. How are you there? I miss you," sabi niya sa akin.

Umikot ang aking eyeballs as if nakikita niya ako.

"Come on Russ, you know we are over right?" sabi ko sa kanya.

Russ was my ex. Naging kami noong nasa college pa lang ako at nagtagal kami hanggang naging squad leader na siya ng SWAT team habang ako naman ay napunta sa intelligence division. Naiwan ito sa Bree habang ako ay napunta sa Aster. Pero bago ako nailipat, pinutol ko ang anumang ugnayan namin. Hindi siya pumayag at first. Sinabi ko naman na pwede pa rin kaming maging magkaibigan.

Why?

I'm really the guy who he knows. I'm working as an assassin and the police are just my fake job.

"Ouch. You don't have to remind me darling. Anyway, I want you to know that I took a two weeks vacation para bisitahin ka dyan," sabi niya.

"What? Why?" tanong ko sa kanya. Hindi siya dapat pumunta rito. I need to do my mission at ng matapos ito kaagad.

"Well duh, to visit you?" patanong na sagot niya.

"You can't."

"Sorry darling but everything is set. I'll see you in two weeks time," sabi niya bago ibinaba ang tawag.

Fuck! Ang tigas ng ulo ng bwisit na iyon!

"Haven't I told you to get rid of him, 'di ba?" sabi sa akin ni Ihra noong bumisita ito sa cubicle na siyang office ko. Siya ang matalik kong kaibigan noon pang nasa Stanford ako hanggang ngayon. He is also unaware of what I am actually doing here.

Ever since talaga ay ayaw na ayaw nito kay Russ. He hated this guy's guts lalo na noong minsan niya akong pinagbuhatan ng kamay.

"You know I can't just do that. May pinagsamahan kami nung tao," sagot ko sa kanya habang pinag-aaralan ang files ni Duke Castel.

"May pinagsamahan nga kayo pero pinagbuhatan ka niya ng kamay. Kung ako iyon I already shoot him. I really don't like the guy."

"Yeah yeah you already told me that like millions of times already."

"Eh bat pumayag kang puntahan ka rito? I mean all the way to Saivia?"

"Hindi ako pumayag. Nag-assume lang siya na pumayag ako."

Bumuntong-hininga ito.

"Why don't you just date someone para tantanan ka na niya?" sabi pa niya.

I can't and I don't want to.

Gustong-gusto ko itong isagot sa kanya but instead, tumingin ako sa kanya.

"And who would be this guy?"

"Anyone. Basta he can get the message na you don't want him anymore."

"Like Duke Castel?" tanong ko sa kanya sabay pakita ng files niya rito.

Mahinang tawa ng narinig ko mula sa kanya.

"Seriously?" aniya na hindi makapaniwala.

"Why not hindi ba? Sabi mo anyone", nakasimangot na sabi ko sa kanya.

"I said, anyone. But not a certain someone. That guy is a playboy, dangerous, don't know what regret is or remorse. He's like f*ck you goodbye later. He doesn't date someone who isn't into high class society. Oh no. He doesn't do dating. He f*cks rather than that.

"Ah I see," sabi ko.

"Interesado ka?" tanong niya.

"Hindi ah," pagsisinungaling kong sagot ko.

Pero in actual, I don't want to meet that guy again.

"Pero kung sakali, you can use him as a ladder. I'm telling you that his Mafia Group is dangerous. Very dangerous. No one really dared to fight them. This Duke guy? He is the real deal whereas his twin brother is the one who talks a lot. Noctural si Duke while Jaxon is morning person. If you want to date a Castel, choose Jaxon instead of him. Kapag nakuha mo na ang loob niya, magbubuhay reyna ka," sabi pa niya

"As if parang madaling makuha ang attention ng lalaking mga lalaking iyon", sagot ko sa kanya.

"Pero nagkita na kayo hindi ba?", tanong niya.

"Yeah kagabi."

Tumaas ang isang kilay niya.

"Yun lang? Wala ka bang chill to the bones na naramdaman? Yung bang tipong nais mong maging alipin niya? Yung bang unang tingin mo sa kanya yung aura niya nagsasabing "Call me daddy"?"

Napitingin uli ako sa kanya. Seriously? Alam ba ng lalaking ito ang pinagsasabi niya? Duke is Not like that. He makes me tremble in fear.

"Huy grabe ha. Hindi naman ako babae parang maramdaman ko iyan. Silent admiration lang okay? Grabe naman yung Call me Daddy yang sinasabi mo", natatawang sabi ko.

"Bakit hindi mo ba naramdaman iyon? Lahat ng Beta's at Gammas na nagtatrabaho dito ay pangarap nilang mai-date iyang Duke or Jaxon , kapag ka bumisita iyon dito eh halos pagpawisan na sila."

"Isa ka na don?" tanong ko.

"Hindi ah. Loyal kaya ako sa mate ko," sagot niya pero hindi ako naniniwala.

Duke is not just ordinary handsome, he is f*****g Zeus in human form.

Yes I indeed heard about Jaxon. It was said that they are completely different but they are indentical twins. Malaki ang pagkakaiba ng kanilang ugali. Kalmado at palangiti si Jaxon at bukod doon ay gentleman pa ito. Unlike Duke. He is the real devil in the flesh. A freakimg real deal who kills whenever he wants just like that.

I'm my professionas an assassin. I never trembled in fear like this. He is the first who made me like that.
