Crimson's Game 046: Lights, Camera, Action!
Knythe's POVIt was quarter to 9:00 pm already and the party will start at 9:30. Still, no sign of Crimson!Kaya ako nauna ay dahil akala ko pwede na pumasok, ngunit pagpunta ko rito, ang naging bungad sa akin ay,flashback...“You're here alone, Sir?”“Uh, no. I'm waiting for my partner.”“I'm afraid you can't come in without an assistance. The Director ordered us to be strict because we are tallying the numbers of guests.”“But, she'll be here soon. Can't I come in?”“You'll gonna have to wait on the lounge, Sir.”end of flashback...“Damn it, Elle. Where are you?” Pabulong na tanong ko sa aking sarili. I stood confidently, exchanging smiles towards the other guests.This is my way of coping up. If I sat on the lounge while fidgeting with my phone, it'll make me look like I lack self confidence. And that's the last thing I want right now.“Thyne?” A voice called out to me. ‘Great, just when I thought this day could get any luckier.’ Nilingon ko siya at bahagyang ngumiti.“Good evenin
Crimson's Game 047: I Regretted Looking
Crimson's POVEver since the scene Knythe caused at the lounging area, I never escaped Gideon's eyes on me. Nasa iisang lamesa kaming walo. I was sitting beside Knythe, and beside him sat Ethan. Kasunod si Hanako, si Hellios, Vyel. Gideon was beside her. At 'yong impaktang Stella. Nakapaikot kami sa lamesa kaya katabi ko siya.‘Kapag minamalas ka nga naman. Lintek na 'yan.’Pasimple akong tumingin sa gilid at 'yon na naman ang mga sulyap ni Gideon. His eyes were like communicating with mine, saying I should've chose him.I took a deep breath and faced the stage properly. ‘Calm down, Elle. Don't think of him. He's with her now.’Naramdaman ata ni Knythe na hindi ako mapakali. He leaned down and whispered, “what's bothering you?”“I'm fine.” Bulong ko pabalik.“Hungry?”“I ate before leaving.” I lied.“Hmm, we'll grab something later.” He replied. I looked at him and he smiled. “Late ka na umalis ng Legion, and you always eat on time. Don't lie to me, next time.”I chuckled softly. “Fine
Crimson's Game 048: Was It Really There To Start With?
Crimson's POV“At this very moment, I would like you all to remember, that without you, this Legion will fall. No king succeeds without a kingdom to protect. No kingdom will remain standing without knights who protects. I will fall, without my allies. Tonight happened because you made it happen. It has been a pleasure, serving with you, my fellow warriors.” Masiglang sigaw ng Director. Nagsitanguan naman ang mga tao sa paligid namin habang may iilan na palakpak at hiyaw mula sa mga manonood.“Let us all enjoy the rest of this evening, ladies and gentlemen. Have a good night!” Pagtatapos niya.The crowd gave him a round of warm applause, they cheered and stood up as they greet the Director, one by one.The rest of the party went well but I'm starting to feel really bored. I yawned before looking around, observing those folk on the aisle. Naiwan kaming mga babae sa table habang nasa pulungan ang mga lalaki. I looked over the table where the men gathered. The Director laughed as he patted
Crimson's Game 049: The Devil's Den
Crimson's POVI sniffed and fixed myself up. When I got out of the restroom, I was surprised to see Hellios waiting for me at the table.“Nasaan sila?” Nagtatakang tanong ko. He stood up, his right hand inside his pocket.“They're waiting for us, come on.” Nauna na siyang maglakad. I followed him and looked around.‘Gaano ba ako katagal sa banyo at parang nangalahati ang dami ng tao?’“Crimson, going home?” Tanong ng Director sa akin. I looked at Hellios to ask him where we're headed but the Director intervened. “Oh, you're with Hellios. Enjoy the evening, dear.” Ngumiti siya at naglakad na palayo.“What the heck?” I cursed.Hellios chuckled. “I know, nakakapanibago siya makitungo. Kumpara kasi noon ay mas madami ang bisita natin ngayon. Which means there are more eyes to please. Look at his eyes.”Tinignan ko ang mga mata ni Director at nag-obserba.“His actions speaks for his desires, for his eyes tells his intentions.”At totoo ang sinabi niya. Now, I can see the difference. He's th
Crimson's Game 050: I'm Not Drunk, Just Tipsy
Crimson's POV“Gideon took you here?” Paglilinaw ni Stella. “Gideon, as in my fiancé?”“Tss, may iba pa ba namang Gideon? Yes, your fiancé took me here. He owns this club!” Nakakunot ang noong saad ko. I tilted my head. "You didn't tell her?" I turned to Gideon and asked him. Wala ni isa sa kanila ang nagsalita.I groaned and shook my head. I feel hot. I stood up.“Oh? Saan ka na naman pupunta?” Nakakunot ang noo na tanong ni Knythe.“I'm gonna go get some air! Don't follow me.” Sagot ko at bumaba. Palabas na sana ako nang may humila sa akin.He grabbed me towards the dance floor. It all happened so fast, I didn't even see his face. He was behind me as he placed his hands on my waist. He swayed my hips together with his.And I found myself dancing with a stranger. I don't know what took over my body. I pressed myself on him making him groan.“You're a great dancer.” He whispered then bit my ear softly. He gripped on my waist, caressing it. I faced him and wrapped my arms around his nap
Crimson's Game 051: Don't Slip Away
Gideon's POVI stood by the railings and watched how Elle laughed with Knythe. I gripped on the glass of rum I am holding when I saw him pull her into a hug.All that has happened, all the years I spent to find her, bursted like a bubble. Those kisses we shared. Those new memories I made with her, can I take it back?Can I go back to those times? When I finally got the chance to hold her? Hug her. Feel her warm embrace.I've waited so long to be with her again, only to be parted.I'm only a few steps away from her, yet, feels so far away. I can't reach her now.“Oh, to see her in someone else's arms breaks my heart.” Stella popped out from nowhere and dramatically spouted those words. She stood beside me, leaning herself on the railings. I placed my left hand inside my pocket before averting my gaze from Elle.I cleared my throat before sipping on my rum.“You never told me you brought her here before.”“I wasn't informed that you had to know.” I scoffed.“I deserve to know.”“Why? Ano
Crimson's Game 052: I'm Not Eliora
Aristella's POVHindi na ako nakapagsalita pa nang maglakad palayo sa akin si Gideon. I gritted my teeth and looked away. What was so special with her? Hindi ko siya maintindihan. And why does she look so familiar?“Well that must hurt.” Biglang may nagsalita sa likod ko. I rubbed my eyes and turned to face him. He had the usual expression on his face. Tinitigan ko lang siya at sinubukan siyang pag-aralan.“What?” Hellios asked, probably wondering why I was staring. Hindi ko siya sinagot at nilagpasan siya. “How long are you going to avoid me, Stella?”I stopped and sighed. “Just let me be for now, Chaos.”“I wanna know why you're here. Anong balak mo sa Legion? Anong balak niyo ni Gideon?” Tanong niyang muli.“I didn't know you worked for him.” I answered, pertaining to the Director.Ramdam ko ang paglapit niya sa akin. He stopped in front me, placing his hands softly on my chin, making me look up. “I won't meddle with your business,” he uttered. “But,” he paused before looking strai

Crimson's POV‘Ah, yes. A happy ending. The bad guy gets caught. Protagonist lives! Survives the most unfortunate saga of her life. Be with the man she loves. Peace for everyone, indeed. Everybody wins. There was hope after all. Well... just not for all of us.’I poured the pig's blood all over the guy sitting in front of me, tied up, unable to do anything. The thick blood ran down his naked body. “Now then,” I whistled and Greed came running inside.“Shh, calm down. Sit, Greed. Good boy!” I caressed his fur. “Greed's gorgeous isn't he? Look how healthy he looks.” I knelt down and slowly took off his muzzle. “Do you know what I feed him, hm?”“I'm sorry... please...” pagmamakaawa ng lalaki. I kept on playing with Greed and ignored the guy. Ugh, seriously, humans. They only beg for life once they see death chasing after them. I put on a gag-ball on his mouth before sitting on the seat in front of him. I crossed my legs and sat there like it was my throne. “I'm strict when it comes to m

The lady in front of Elle was tapping her pen on the table. She fixed her eyeglasses, scrolling on Elle's background profile.“You're so pretty.” Elle smiled at her. The doctor ignored Elle's compliment and continued reading the details on the file.Ikinatawa niya iyon ng bahagya at dinilaan ang kanyang ibabang labi. “I wonder how you would look like...” Elle rested her chin against her palm. “... bathing on your own blood.” Saad ni Elle habang nakatitig sa magagandang mata ng babae. The lady cleared her throat and faced her.“Are you aware of the actions you committed 2 years ago?” Tanong ng doktora sa kaniya.“Hm, which ones?” Mapaglarong ngumiti si Elle.“I'm sorry, the question's all wrong. You killed 27 people 2 years ago, why?” The doctor asked again.A small smile crept on Elle's lips up
Crimson's Game 068: Speak Of The Devil
Hellios' POVMatapos ang gabing iyon ay wala na ulit kaming narinig mula sa Legion. The place burned down, the members were taken care of. Agad na kumalat sa balita ang nangyari, ngunit agad din iyong nawala. Someone took down the article, but words are still spreading. It's been a few months since then. Isa sa mga nasangkot sa insidenteng iyon ay nasa pangangalaga na ng institusyon namin.And as soon as I learned she's here, I hurried to see her. Nang makarating ay siya agad ang hinanap ko. “Where is she?” Bungad na tanong ko kay Azrael. She looked hesitant to tell me but still gave in. Agad akong sumunod kay Azrael.She lead me in front of a white room. There, I saw her, sitting down, clueless about what's going on. My hand turned into a fist when I saw her hands cuffed to one another, as well as her feet. She was wearing a white gown and the handcuffs were attached to the table.“Is this really necessary?” Pigil ang inis na tanong ko.“It is.” Napalingon ako at nakita ang isang lala

Hellios' POVI grunted when he whipped the blade and it made a cut on my neck. Napahawak ako roon. I can't focus on Yvan, I keep on looking at Vyel's way everytime she would whimper.“Eliora, you're making a big mistake!” Sigaw ko.“Of all the mistakes I made, I'm enjoying to commit this one!” She laughed as she kept attacking Vyel.Napatigil kami sandali nang mag-umpisang gumuho ang gusali. I glanced at Knythe. “You didn't tell her?!”“How was I supposed to?! She ran off after attacking me!”“Crimson!” Sigaw ko. “Bloody hell!” I shouted when the blade cut my cheeks. Huminga ako nang malalim at nanggigigil na sinugod si Yvan. He blocked my attacks before laughing.“Isn't this fun?!” He yelled as he threw a knife at my way. “The three of us, finally together again, right Damien?” Tumatawang tawag niya kay Knythe.Knythe grunted as he dodged Valencia.

I went out of my car and surveyed the place. I took a deep breath before entering the building. After two years, ngayon na lang ulit ako makakapasok dito. “Welcome, Sir. To whom shall I make your reservations?” Nakangiting tanong ng babae. I tilted my head upon hearing her question.“I don't need reservations.” Payak na tugon ko. “I'm here to see the boss.”“I'm afraid that's not going to happen, Sir. The Director is on a meeting at the moment, unless you appointed a meeting, you cannot speak with him.”“Just call him and we're done.” Unti-unti nang nauubos ang pasensya ko.“Do you have a card?” Tanong niyang muli.“No, I don't. Like I said, I don't need one.”“I'm sorry, Sir. We have to follow protocol.”“You don't have any idea who I am, do you?” Tanong ko.“Master?”Napakunot ang noo ko nang mar

My driver insisted I stay on the car where it's safer. I hissed, “oh, for f*ck's sake.” Bulong ko at lumabas ng kotse. “Hindi pa rin ba tapos iyan?” Masungit na tanong ko ro'n sa babae pagkadating na pagkadating sa lobby. Gulat na nilingon ako ng driver ko.“I'm sorry, Sir. There's an event tonight and the security is pretty strict.” Tugon niya.‘I'm the reason there's an event, dimwit.’ Usal ko sa aking isip.“Sir, bumalik na muna po kayo sa kotse.” Kinakabahan an usal ng driver ko.I took off my mask and faced the lady, my driver panicked. “S-Sir!” “Don't you know who I am?!” “S-Sir Yvan...” napapahiyang usal niya.“That's Chairman Yvan for you.

I squinted my eyes as I yawned. “Hey, you're up.” I turned to look at Knythe, and he was sitting on the edge of the bed. He suddenly settled on top of me and hugged me tightly, burying his face on my neck. “Get up.” Utos ko ngunit lalo lang siyang sumiksik sa akin. I chuckled softly before pushing him, “ang bigat mo. Tabi na.”He groaned and shook his head. “Let's stay like this for a while. I missed you.” “We can't.” I teased him and chuckled. Napanguso naman siya.“Five more minutes.” He mumbled. I gave up and sighed.“Fine, five more minutes.” I smiled and played with his hair. Nangibabaw ang katahimikan sa pagitan namin. I was staring at the tree outside when he suddenly spoke.“You lied.”Naguguluhan akong tumingin sa kaniya. “When did I lie?”“When you said you wouldn't leave

Most of the responses came back.”“Most?”“Well, the last one, they haven't responded yet.”“Is the Director expecting them for the event?” I asked and handed her the papers as I grabbed the files.“Not only the Director, Heiress.” Nakarating na kami sa opisina ko sa haba ng aming pag-uusap.I sat down the swivel chair and faced her.
