((LEON))
Seeing Sena again made my blood seethe in anger. Despite what happened, she’s still acting all innocent. Didn’t she know how much disturbance she caused in the lives of the people around her?
((SENA))“*Achoo! *” my sneeze woke me up. I also had a budding headache. We’re home?
((LUIS))The house that I was locked up in was well-guarded. My father instructed his men to shut me inside, with no communications whatsoever to the real world. What’s more bot
((SEAN))I was womanlier in terms of cleanliness than she could ever be in her lifetime. Tss. She left the used-up tissues and empty boxes in the sofa. “Sen
(EL's POV)I gasped for air while hearing the rustle of leaves. In a blitz, I saw Uncle Leidolf charging towards me. The look in his eyes felt like two daggers peircing through me. My body couldn't react quickly enough to dodge his attack. He almost killed me again if he didn't stop.Both of us started laughing. We lied down on the grass, my uncle took his robe while slowly turning back in his human form. His knife-like claws disappearing in his hands, the elongated muzzle replaced by his human face. It still amazes me seeing someone else shape-shifting, even though I've seen it countless times. The sky gets darker, I know that he could also smell the rain about to drop."You can now control not to change your form EL."
(Luis POV)Did Sean burn her?“I want justice for this, my son.”The naked woman in front of us was just fine when I last talked to her. I was able to warn her too, but she didn’t listen.She stared at me with puffy red eyes. And I saw her trembling with anger. With fear. Her skin that used to be as porcelain as china was now flaky with scabs. I took the cloth back and wrapped it around her.What happened to her has unsettled me to. Everything smelled… like Sean’s doing.I felt pity. But I knew very well the reason why Sean did that to her.She has been cruel. Rhen took the life of an innocent child. After all that she has done, she was lucky that Sean spared her, her life.Sean was at fault still. He should’ve had just let God do the judgment.“And I find out about your lost cousin.”I was even more surprised.“She’s Sean's lover
(Luis POV)As we left, I only heard the ghost of a shattering noise from that room. Tsk. I honestly wanted to cry with rage. I was having a hard time.After the long years of suffering, why was my heart still so soft and forgiving? Why didn’t I harden up like how my father has become? Was it because I knew they’re wrong? Or was it because I’m still cherishing my mother’s memories.“My baby. Helping others in need and protecting everyone is a real treasure. Be brave. Be strong. But make sure your heart stays compassionate, “she’d usually say.My mother was under a novitiate to becoming a nun when my father met her. She was forced to leave the convent after what dad did to her. My mother is a lovely woman. She’s religious to a fault and loved to help. She didn’t complain about her fate or questioned her faith after dad raped her.I was the result of the sinful committed a
(Sena POV)“Hmm. Sean, how can I help you? ““Are you bored?” he answered me with another question. I wanted to help but he sounded like it was I who needed help. “Let me finish this and I'm going to teach you something.”“Huh?”He didn’t answer me and just talked to Leon.“What are your favorite flowers?” Huh? Why? Is he making a slam note?“Stephanotis and gardenia,” I smiled.“What are those?”Sure thing, Sean didn’t know anything about flowers. Why though? Is he buying me a bouquet?Leon and him got into a conversation again.Anyway, gardenia symbolizes peace and calmness. It’s just too fragrant to suit the meaning it stands for. Stephanotis, on the other hand, symbolizes marital happiness. It’s perfect for Sean and I.I left the dining area and went for a walk. Sean's pets greete
(Sena POV)Sean sat like a prince as he watched me on my lesson. He kept on shaking his head and motioned to Cecile to make me repeat my walk. After several failed attempts, he finally stood up.His face was angry. I was also frowning at his impossible standard.“Be a Herald Lady, Sena!” he shouted. “Tsk! Cecile, help her change into an elegant dress. We’re going to attend a fashion show. “Fashion show? He left without telling me anything else.Cecile pulled me to my wardrobe to get a dress that I never thought I would wear before. When we’re done with the makeover… Wow. Guess it’s time to advertise Cream Silk. ‘I choose to be beautiful!’The only things missing were the red carpet and cameras.I was wearing a long gown with a slit on the left leg side. It was flaming red in color and the jewelries that fashion designer chose were expensive. What if I lose
