Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 51 - A Ferrero
CHAPTER 51"Zavan..." I mouthed.My tears continued to flow, and I was about to cry when two sentries pulled me away from the prince, who was now dumbfounded, confused, and in disbelief. I bit my lower lip to prevent sobbing. But the thought of the prince makes me cry even more. He might be regretting that he didn't even take the time to get to know me. He might be mad that I didn't even say anything about me, and I'm sure the upper echelons thought the same. I snapped when Maximus laughed beside me; he was also being pulled by three sentries."You can't get rid of me, Ferrero." He said.My eyes widened. How did he know I am Ferrero? The hairs on my body stood up because of the horror that Maximus carried. I was even more confused about my feelings."You're an animal,""No matter what you say, you're just a piece of dust that doesn't belong in this palace. You don't deserve to be with the nobility; you're a pretentious slave!" He shouted.It was like a sharp arrow pierced my heart wit
Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 52 - Last Moments
CHAPTER 52"Because you are Lucianno Ferrero's daughter,"What Maximus said ran through my mind over and over again. I tried to understand everything; I was about to explode, not only my body but also my brain."You're an animal!" I screamed and lost my mind. "You have no shame! What have you done to my father?""Do you want to know the true story of your life? I know your story better than you, Ferrero." He said.I cried again while crawling on the floor. Is this as hard as most people say it is? It's not only my body that feels pain but also my mood, and I think that's the most painful of all. I tried to cry while trying to fight the pain. I can't breathe anymore; my problem is increasing with every word Maximus utters. I gasped for air, but I sucked nothing. I'm just forcing myself to breathe because if I give up, I won't be able to live anymore."One night, a girl was born." Maximus began that the more I tortured, I vomited blood again, more this time. "There was no more fun that
Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 53 - Trust
CHAPTER 53I was supposed to be immune to the pain; I shouldn't feel anything anymore, so I don't know how I felt the prince's presence at that time."Hush, you'll be fine, precious."That was the only thing I was holding on to at that time—that I would be safe in his arms despite the hardships I was going through."How dare you, Maximus?" said Zavan. "I've heard everything, and you will pay for it."I seem to have been revived by hope. They came before my death; at least it wasn't too late. I have done justice to my father as well as my mother. I protected the Euphrates from the hands of Maximus, and I still triumphed in spite of everything. It's not too bad to die to end all this; I'm having too much trouble... I can't take it anymore."Don't you dare die, Beryl? It is a command," whispered Zavan.I don't even know what happened next. I only felt two drops of hot tears on my cheeks and a long kiss on my lips before I finally took my breath away."I love you..."I feel that someone i

CHAPTER 54"WHO ARE YOU?"I frowned because of Zavan's question to me. I slapped his arm and said, "You're not funny." I forced a laugh as I had said those words.He laughed at me and faced me again: "I'm not kidding, who are you?"I stopped laughing. My knees shook when I noticed that I was slowly disappearing. It's not Zavan who's missing, but me. What is it?"Za-Zavan?" I asked nervously."Who are you?" he asked again. His expression was blank, and my heart was breaking because of what was happening."Zavan!" I called because I was disappearing and he was becoming a blur in my sight. "NO!"The scream slowly entered my brain. Zavan's voice sounded like he was struggling. What was happening was very blurry, and after I screamed, I heard his voice.I heard a loud bang that woke me from my sleep. "Oh sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t!" It was a nightmare! I had a nightmare!It rattled outside again. I quickly got up, stood up, and hid in the back of my room. I made sure I was awake because maybe this w
Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 55 - Request
CHAPTER 55The prince is recovering in his room as the upper echelons, including myself, are summoned for our requests. The prince was so weak, he was lifeless. Until now, my tears have not stopped pouring. How is this all happening to us? What did I do wrong that I deserve to suffer this much?I was never a survivor of happiness or love. What exactly is wrong with me? I was deprived of meeting my real family; they were erased from my memory. It was only Manang Omeng who removed my memories, but I still had a hard time remembering them. What about the prince? He was surrounded by elders, and no chant could break the spell they put on him.I'm broken; the prince had forgotten about me. I can't even stand properly because of my weakness, so I remained seated while facing the void. I couldn't think clearly, and after the incident, I didn't speak anymore. Life is so cruel; why does life seem so angry with me? Am I that bad to suffer like this?"Beryl..." Corinthians called. I almost forgo
Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 56 - Leaving
CHAPTER 56All of them were speechless because of what I said."You are selfless, as ever." The Queen's voice prevailed in the room we were in. Her footsteps echoed as she made her way to my seat. The upper echelons, including the princess, gave way for the queen to reach me. "Can't you change your mind?" she asked.I shook my head, my tears falling spontaneously. If it had been possible to rush, I would have done it, but I understand that his decision to forget me and Zavan is for everyone as well."You want to use your stone for the first district?"I nodded. She sighed, "You can hope. We'll work hard to give the homeless people a shelter."I felt happy because those on the streets, including us, would finally have a place to live. I will not stay in the palace; I will go back to Lola and Laura. I will try to forget everything, just like they tried to forget me and Zavan."Everyone in the first district will live happily again," said the Queen. "Maximus said that the people there li
Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 57 - Back To The Beginning
CHAPTER 57What I did was spread fast in the first district. That's why I was surprised when I was greeted by the warm music of the poor people there. All the sentries I passed at each gate saluted me. Those in the second district couldn't be found; they just silently watched me pass by their place.I don't know who made the announcement, but far away I heard loud shouts, clapping, the sound of trumpets, and the beating of drums. I smiled when I saw the people on the streets; the palace moved quickly because someone was already building houses there for the people.They fulfilled their promises. A poor man grabbed me from the carriage and put me on his back; then they jumped down and carried me. These people, I love it! I feel like I've won the lottery or an election; there's nothing more fun than what I feel when I see those who used to be sad on the streets now having fun because everyone has a house."FOR VELURIYA!""FOR VELURIYA!"I burst out laughing. That's what they call my nam
Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 58 - Her Story
CHAPTER 58A MONTH HAD PASSED. The houses of the paupers were built and established. I have no news from the palace either. Maybe everyone has been busy because of their duties. It's funny; people didn't laugh at me in the first district. They chose me as their mayor, but they call me commander instead. Until I played it. I have been in charge of the first district, and the place they used to trample on has been settled.The first and second districts became good friends; the barriers between neighboring areas are gone. But the status is still not lost; the elite and paupers still can't live together. Maybe there is nothing I can do there, but at least the friendship between the districts will grow. There are no more poor people in the Euphrates; everyone has their own place to live, including us."Mr. Rody, how is your garden?" I shouted at the farmer."Good day, commander! The rice fields are fine; this Elmer has grown his corn!""You can visit there, Commander! Don't worry, the cor

Zalistaír Vandross Magnaté CaésarWe only have a few days left before the search, and my team is a whole mess. I am somehow worried because Zandrus' group is well set up while my group is in trouble. We sent the officials to the districts to get someone to help us, but they haven't arrived yet, which is why my group is still confused."Prince, we need to talk to you." Greyson suddenly entered Princess Zavannah's room, which I was in. I nodded and planted a kiss on Zavannah's forehead before leaving. There isn't a day that I don't visit her; it's been years since she fell asleep after the fall of Luciano Ferrero. I was still young then, so I don't know what really happened. There was chaos in the palace; the brave Ferrero died, and my brother never woke up again. Now we only have the stones as our hope—to wake the princess, to free the kingdom from crisis, and for me to get the throne.We have arrived at the old haunted storage room; the group is already there except for Chrysler, for
Underneath Her Peculiar Eyes Chapter 59 - Together
Chapter 59I still remember a saying from Ralph Waldo Emerson: "Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."A year ago, I was a hopeless and lifeless person. It was so hard for me to live. The life I had was not ordinary, and everyone saw that. Since I was young, I used to be alone. Until Marcus and Laura came, they were the only ones who made friends with me—no one else. I thought my life would be forever a mess; I can't see any path, so I don't know where I'm going. Until something happened, which led the way for me to become stronger, braver, fiercer, bolder, and more dauntless.The search happened; it turned out to be the search for the beryl and the search for me, and I left a trail. I realized that life is not about what will happen to you but what you do that will happen to you. We choose, we determine, and we live our own destiny. I was the negative yet brave girl, so my life was also negative. I was lost in an unknown place where I
