CHAPTER 41- REMANA II

LUNA CREST

Clarabelle grinned and snatch her up and hang her in the coat rack. I let out a deep sighed. I was used to her, being clingy is what makes her, Clarabelle. Its not new to me.

"Get me down, Luna Crest patay ka talaga sakin!!"

"No can do miss master, obey me, and respect my guild your in my territory.."

"Kung ayaw ko, may magagawa ka? Luh akong pake ket matangkad ka di ako takot sayo"

"Luna crest, she's so stubborn and reckless..!"

"Ket magsumbong kapa sa gagong yan wala akong kinatatakutan sa inyo dalawa pag umpugin ko pa kayo e" I know I'm dead. The red mark of her slapped still tingling on my flesh. Even without looking. My princess is raging in heat from hell and about to spill those fire in a minute. I stood up and get my princess down. She crossed her arms above her chest, sneering at me.  "What are you looking at?!"

"Nothing just mesmerized"

"Show off, Bitawan mo nga ako wag kang pacute!"

"Kiss me then, I've longing for thy lips" I said and she began shivering in disgust.

"Val!" Dinig kong reklamo ni Clarabelle. "How can that little dwarf made you loose your senses back to me! "

My princess peered and raspberry her and wrapped her arms around on my neck. And that makes a sudden feel of lightning strike to my soul. My body freeze and the air was too thin and my vision became unstable. She brush her fingers on my hair and that sent me shivers. "His mine, always mine, you can't take him away from me, I'm not sharing him with anyone" her voice was warm yet deadly. I feel something ran down from my nostrils. I wipe it and turns out it's blood.

"Your highness your flirting on me"

"I am not! The audacity" Binaba kolang siya at Napahawak ako sa dingding para akong nahihilo at nag alala siya sakin. "Luna crest you okay?" I saw her anxious eyes and I began to dampened my chest, it's too much!!

"See what you did?!"

"Shhh!" That made Clarabelle stop, Esthelian always amazed me "Don't interfere.. Luna Crest okay kalang? Oyy"

"I'm fine, I'm fine" I said and past her and sank to my seat. My heart is pressured, my blood is stuck in my veins. His mine. That causes my vision to double and send me tumbling to the floor in a heap

"Luna crest!!!!!!"

When the darkness covered the light, I know that I reach my limit.

I was floating

As I drifted aimlessly, weightless in a vast expanses of nothingness, I found myself envelope in a suffocating darkness that seems to stretch out infinity in all direction.

From a midst of void I saw a small light and I swamp myself towards it. But something is pulling me back, the mass is strong, it pulling me down....

The vibrant display finally subsided and for the first time in a long while I was able to see a coherent object. The first sight that my eyes reached is a woman. Her eyes mesmerized me, a bright, piercing ocean blue that seems to sparkle with a life on their own. They shone like crystals, captivating and exquisite. An uncanny amount of warmth radiating for her smile as she looked at me with an equal amount of love and surprised.

"What happen?" I asked, my voice is till weak but I gasped in fear, a frog jumped on me, Kylve!!

"Thank goodness your fin..."

"GET OFF!!!"

Moment later came to past, stretching my arms and limbs and body waiting for the satisfying cracks, parang tumabingi ang ugat ng braso ko. "Ang sama mo naman dinko ba alam na kanina pa siyang nag aalala sayo" My princess scolded me.

"Aray naman dahan dahan may bukol yung tao e!" Dinig kong reklamo niya ng gamutin ang bukol niya ng lunarian.

"Wants some cookies?" I freak out when she pop out of nowhere. "Geez! Val since that woman came, you never look at me!"

"Actually"

"Sige, if you love me then take some of my cookies as proof"

Dun palang sa offer niya nakaramdaman na ako ng kakaibang kilabot sa likuran ko. "I'm sorry I can't" I refuses and that made her frowned I never refuses her cookies before, not until today. It feels not right to talked to her while her highness is watching. I know she's looking at me because I can sense her aura. I treasure Clarabelle real much as a friend but I never thought that on that day her feelings bloom.

"Mmm love it" napalingon naman kami ng kumuha si Aldanard

"Hey!!"

"Can I have some... Ahkkkk!" She choked him. "Okay, okay Tama na!"

"I baked this only for my Val! Get it!" She yanked him out of the way. Clarabelle is a sweet heart. But I never picture myself with her. I don't want to hurt her feelings. I tried to warned and remind her that she's like a sister to me, a friend and nothing more.

Nag uusapan naman silang lahat sa kabila and nabigla ako ng lumukso siya sakin and it's becoming more and more uncomfortable. Her boobs are squeezing on my chest like she done it on purposed. She never done this before. It's not like her. She sat on my lap and pull up her skirt and take my hand and put it on her chest. Napasigaw ang lamang loob ko sa ginawa niya at sabay pa ng nakakatakot na presensya sa likuran ko. I pushed her away from me.

"Luna crest!!"

I'm done for.. The aura became too powerful, the horror screams and the beautiful ambience of the room rotten . I can sense her demons. I leaned back and I saw her smile, and those smile carved something on my brain that made me regret and she walked out of the room. I stop her but she slapped my hands.

"Oh I senses dangers. Yan landi pa"

I left the room, dismissing them and followed her down the stairs. She went to Xylldor and he nodded, Emion refuses to leave and she yanked him out the pool.

We left Remana when she demanded them to go find Grimer'e leaving me behind. I didn't want her to go without me, I sat next to the coachman because she doesn't wanna to talk to me. She's furious and it's terrified me, it's not a joke anymore.

All I heard was a creaking wheels and whining donkeys moving forward. I saw people carrying their newly harvest vegetables to sell them to the town. Many farmers turn their faces as we past their rice fields. From a distance I saw mansion standing at the center. Napapalibutan ito ng mga maliliit na bahay.

After an hour past, the carriage stop. I jump down to open the door just to get her attention. But she ignore me. Like I wasn't even there. Aldanard side eyed me while his walking down the slope routes. And smirk at me.

Someone slap my shoulders and I dust it off "Yan kase"

"Gusto mo atang sumabog mukha mo Luna Quartz?"

"Sino ba yung babae yun alam mo ba konte nalang sakalin na ako ng mahal na prinsesa kanina na nakatingin sa inyo"

"Nagseselos siya?"

"Di ba halata?"

I want to make her jealous but I went to far. I'm rubbing my temples while walking on the routes and explain "Clarabelle happens to be that big boss concubines and the bitter cold of the wilderness didn't took me easy, she generously take me to her room and offered me a drink. I lost klyve on the midst of crowds, I was drunk that night and I lost my way back to Junakie. And I accidentally past that building... And so it continues"

"So you spend the night with her alone" she said with eyes widen in shocked. " So you did dragged her to the bed and ..."

"She's making that up, non of that happen" i spend about a week on her, and she treated me well. There's an affection with her action. But I never felt the same. It's just empty, I treated her like a sister. I never had that in mind. But eshe always finds a way to seduced me. She knows that and I always reminding her. But today's it's different. She's flirting with me like she trying to make my someone's jealous.

"I know that, pero kase napaisip din kase ako kung may nangyari sa inyo"

"No"

But there's a foggy memories within and I can't make it out somehow, all I can remember is.  Dim light and a curtains were dancing because the window was widely open and the wind is whistling. I remember a smell of roses on my nose and tasted something that made me crave more. There's a voices keeps repeating, she's calling my name, begging, her gripped tighten on my arms. Pressing my lips on a soft skin, my skin awaken and shiver with palpating joy. I felt pleasure...

Wait did we?? What is that

"Hey luna Crest! Hoyy!!!"

No! I'm sure nothing happen between us. I woke up to reality and she scrunching her nose to me. "kanina pa ako nagsasalita tapos ang layo ng iniisip mo sira ulo ka talaga. Alam mo ba yung sinabi ko kanina?"

"Sorry".

"Gosh you're always zooning out"

"May iniisip lang ako wag ka maingay"

I watch her from a distance. Even she's a miles away. It's like I can hear her voice. Something inside me calling her attentions, its different. Something pushed me to never let her looses her grip on mine. I rushed down and she freaked out, watching me running towards her direction and she rushed away. But her little feet can surpassed me and I grabbed her with force. I buried her head on my chest but then she bit me.

"Aray dibdib ko!"

"Umalis ka nga daming tao nakakahiya!"

"Ignore me again, I won't forgive you"

she didn't replied, she scoff at me and that made me sighed in relief. I raised her and kiss her forehead, I didn't mind the people on the streets turning their heads.

"Oyy gagi ka! Daming tao oh ibaba mo nga Ako!" Sigaw niya pero di ko siya pinakinggan, dala dala kolang siya at natawa nalang ako nang takpan niya ang mukha niya, she steaming in embarrassment. "Bitawan mo nga ako Luna Crest!"

"Yoko bahala ka"

"Tapos mo maglandi kanina tapos bigla bigla molang akong buhatin ano trip mo huh! Siya nalang kaya dalhin mo dito bwesit ka..." Natahimik lang siya ng halikan ko ang labi niya sa harap ng madla. It was just a three second kiss and the people flopped on their spot. She was stunned because I kiss her by surprised. This lips is mine.

It was my plan to locked the contract so no one dares to go anywhere near her  beside me. Tulala lang siya sa ginawa ko. I put her down and she rushed away and hid behind Luna Vanessa, trembling. Nagsumbong ito at binatukan ako ni Vanessa.

That night, when she stolen a kissed from me.  I swore that was the best kiss I had and I want to taste it again and again. I won't let anyone will taste the same lips that devoured mine. Locking that contract was a plan of forcing her, and that gave me an authority, a chance to steal her from her man. I had decided to take her away. After that night I swore that this woman marked something on me and that made me crave for her more.

• • • • •

Later on, We're staring at a beautiful statue, every statues were build for her. The Boss was so obsessed with her, even the portraits and designed were meant for his beloved. I pull out my sleeves and wipe her saliva from dropping on the floor and that make her puff in embarrassment.

"Look your highness..."Emion just calls her attention. My nerves split when he held her hands while droning story of the detailed of the paintings. Nakaramdam ako ng selos pag nakikita ko siya na naagaw ng iba ang atenyon niya.

At mas ayaw kong  naamoy ko ang amoy ng lalake sa kanya. Nag iinit ang ulo ko. Hinila ko siya palapit sakin at pinahiran ang kamay niya. Wala naman siyang kaide ideya sa ginagawa ko pero naamoy ko talaga yung gago nayon sa kamay niya.

An old man walked us to meet the boss. He knocked the door and the voice inside replied. Pumasok na kami may nakita akong mga tao sa paligid na gumagawa ng sculptura.

"What's your business with me?" He asked and Esthelian Leaned forward. And pointed the sculpture. The workers stop and look at them both.

"If I finds her, would you double the price?" Wika niya. But the men inside thought she was just joking not until she show her devil's side. That's what I love about her, even having that ethereal Goddess features yet she embodied Satan on her.

"Well then we have a deal, if not you'll be working for me"

"Okay then, deal" I was stunned, and sighed, is she being impulsive? I can't just let her work with that man.

"Make that three" pahabol naman ni Luna Vanessa

"Okay, make sure she'll come home without that contract"

Madali lang siyang kausap. Di na kami nagtagal at lumabas na. Boss Grimer'e said that she's on Devuniak, Countess slyphina was cousins of Queen Fynne but twice removed. She married on an Earl named Stevann Gusher but became a widow, living on the manor near the townsfolk.

"Wala akong budge.." I hussed her and handed her a purse of gold coins. Medyo kuripot din ako maliban lang sa kanya. I put my arm on my left ear. I'm hearing a signal back on my hometown "What?"

"It's done, is there any suggestions or plan..?"

"Spend that somewhere else"

"Where?"

"I'll tell you the locations" I said and our conversation stop when Esthelian tugged my clothes and I look back.

"I thought you don't  have any money"

"I don't want to spend much since I'm bad at saving money but since you're a princess with no fund, broke, I have no choice but to save you from hitting that tantrums"
