KABANATA XXXIII
Third Person's POV
On the verge of losing control over the immense power sleeping inside her, Everly's body unexpectedly gave in first.
Before her magic could fully explode, she lost consciousness.
Her fragile mortal body simply couldn't withstand the overwhelming energy of the Fifth Disciple. As a form of self-preservation, her body instinctively shut itself down before the power could consume her completely.
Hapon na nang magising si Everly. Marahan siyang napamulat habang nakahiga pa rin sa damuhan. Nanatili si Eve sa kanyang tabi sa buong oras na iyon, tahimik na binabantayan ang kanyang walang malay na katawan. Mabuti na lamang at tanging mga ibon, insekto, at maiilap na hayop lamang ang lumapit sa kanya.
"A-Ano'ng nangyari?" mahina niyang tanong habang pilit inaalala ang huling bagay na kanyang naaalala.
She slowly sat up and her eyes immediately widened.
The once peaceful clearing had turned into complete chaos.
Malalalim na bitak ang bumiyak sa lupa, nagkalat ang mga nabuwal na puno, at halos walang natirang damuhan sa paligid. Para bang dinaanan ng isang napakalakas na bagyo.
Luckily, your body is still too weak to contain the Disciple's power, seryosong sambit ni Eve sa kanyang isipan.
If your body had endured even a little longer, your magic would've been completely released. Our enemies would've sensed your exact location... and you wouldn't have survived meeting them in your current state.
Hindi makapagsalita si Everly habang nakatitig sa lawak ng pinsalang nagawa niya nang hindi man lamang niya namamalayan.
Kakarampot pa lamang iyan sa tunay na kapangyarihang nasa loob mo, pagpapatuloy ni Eve.
Now imagine that power falling into the hands of someone driven by greed and hatred. Kaya seryosohin mo ang iyong pagsasanay. We don't have much time left, Everly.
Unti-unting bumigat ang dibdib niya.
The thought that she almost endangered innocent lives terrified her more than the possibility of dying herself.
What if next time she loses control inside the mansion?
What if Greyson...
No.
Hindi niya kayang isipin ang posibilidad na siya mismo ang maging dahilan ng pagkamatay ng mga taong nagsimula nang maging mahalaga sa kanya.
Napayuko siya habang pilit pinipigilan ang guilt na unti-unting lumalamon sa kanyang dibdib.
Tahimik na lumapit si Eve at marahang ipinatong ang puti nitong paa sa pulso ni Everly. A warm light surrounded her wrist.
Unti-unting nabuo ang isang eleganteng pulseras na yari sa maliliit na puting perlas.
Wear this at all times, Eve instructed.
It will suppress the Disciple's power whenever it becomes unstable. It will also prevent your appearance from transforming into Lady Weresfia's every night. Someday, that will save your life.
Mahigpit na hinawakan ni Everly ang pulseras. Kung may pag-asa pa upang manatili sa sariling katawan, hindi siya susuko.
Even if she had to search every corner of Grand Orleas, hahanapin niya ang paraan upang manatiling siya pa rin hanggang sa huli.
BINABASA MO ANG
MY CURSED MATE
ParanormalA cursed appearance. A shattered destiny. A truth that could rewrite history. In the shadowed lands of Grand Orleas, EVERLY is a living symbol of fear and loathing. Her disfigured visage mirrors the incurable disease wrought by warlocks-servants of...
