KABANATA LXXXIII

Third Person's POV

As night fell again, it was finally time for Lukariah to awaken. Zerta had remained by Lukariah's side throughout the entire twenty-four hours of her revival, sacrificing a significant amount of her own power to repair the damage in the room. She did this to ensure no one would suspect anything unusual had occurred.

Tiim na naghintay si Zerta sa pagbubukas ng mata ni Lukariah dahil oras na upang magising ito. Ngunit halos ilang oras na ang lumipas ay walang kahit isang kislot na ginawa ang katawan niyo. Nag-uumpisa na siyang makaramdam ng pagkabahala para sa bata.

Talaga bang kinaya nito ang pagsubok na iyon o hindi na ito magigising pa? Pabagsak na naupo siya sa kama nito at mahigpit na ginagap ang palad ng dalaga. Mariin niyang ipinikit ang mata at pilit na inalis ang pagkabalisa sa kanyang sistema.

She is aware that Ganesha is observing through the dark coven's surveillance around Lukariah's room. Any delay might have prompted her to come immediately, yet there's no sign of Lady Ganesha arriving soon.

She worries that something might have happened to Ganesha or the coven. Torn between checking on Ganesha and staying with Lukariah until she regains consciousness, she feels uncertain about what to do.

"You've been sleeping for quite a while little lady... please wake up now." Puno ng pag-aalalang usal niya dito.

Ngunit napatigil siya ng biglang lumapag sa sahig ng kwarto ang isa pang dark cooer. Mukhang kadarating lang nito ay may piraso ng papel na nakatali sa paa nito. Mabilis siyang tumayo paalis sa kama at lumapit doon.

She detangled the piece of paper and read its content. It's from Lady Ganesha. And she couldn't believe what she just read inside.

'Freda's dead. Weresfia killed her.'

Hindi niya mapigilang magbunyi dahil sa wakas ay nabunutan na din ng tinik si Lady Ganesha dahil wala na si Freda sa mundong ito.

'However, Lord Casfir transferred Freda's position and demonic power to Lord Helian, and I think he's planning something related to me. I hope my child is doing well in your hands, Lady Zerta. I'm sorry I can't be there for Luka, I think Lord Casfir is already suspecting me of hiding something from him. Please write a response back once you've read this. ' Kaagad namang kumuha si Zerta ng kapirasong papel mula sa gamit ni Lukariah at nagsulat ng kanyang sagot sa balitang iyon ni Lady Ganesha.

Inilagay niya sa kanyang liham ang kasalukuyang lagay ni Lukariah at mga kakaibang bagay na napapansin niya dito at nangakong babantayan si Lukariah sa lahat ng oras.

Katatapos pa lamang niyang itali ang liham sa paa ng dark cooer ng biglang bumukas ang pinto. Mabilis na itinago ni Zerta ang kanyang presensya mula sa nilalang na pumasok.

Napakunot ang kanyang noo ng makita ang isa pang kapatid ni Lukariah, kung hindi siya nagkakamali ay Cassian ang pangalan nito. Hindi niya ito madalas na nakikitang dumalaw kay Lukariah at base sa emosyong nakapaskil sa mukha nito habang tinutungo ang gilid ng kama ni Lukariah ay hindi ito naroon upang dalawin ang kapatid.

"It's your fault!" Sigaw nito at sumampa sa kama ng wala pa ding malay na si Lukariah at sinakal ito sa leeg.

Zerta was taken by surprise and was about to remove the child from Lukariah's body—and kill him. However, a group of people burst into the room and pulled Cassian out of Lukariah instead.
