Mysterious Palace (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER 13

Nagtipon-tipon silang lahat habang gumagala sa buong palasyo. Na-bo-bored na rin sila kakahilata buong araw kaya nag desisyon silang maglakad-lakad at baka makahanap sila ng daan palabas.

Si Sheila naman ay nagpagitna. Sa takot na makasulubong ulit ng ahas sa mga sirang kahoy o semento. Nakahawak sa magkabilang braso niya si Espe at Sabel na napatingin tingin sa paligid.

"Guys, look!" Tumingin ang lahat kay Angela na may hawak na gintong bracelet.

Inagaw ito ni GV at sinuri bago binigay kay Cheska na tinitigan rin at sinauli kay Angela pilay.

"Keep it," tumango ito at sinuot ang bracelet.

Nagpahuli si Shantel at Shaina na nagtitingin sa paligid. Shantel glance at Romelette at Knight who's being sweet again. Nakakairita. Palihim siyang umirap at napunta ang tingin kay Shan-Dhave na nakatitig sa kanya kaya tinaasan niya ito ng kilay. Shan-Dhave smirked.

"Nakakairita talaga ang mukha nito, kahit kailan." Gigil niyang bulong at ini-imagine ang pagtiris niya sa binata gamit ang daliri nito.

Tumabi si Cheska sa kanila na himala hindi nakadikit si Cyan. Pasimple niyang tiningnan ang terrace ng palasyo at napangisi nang makita ang target niya.

"Shantel, third floor upstairs." Shantel nodded and stop walking before going to the opposite direction.

Tumakbo siya sa paikot na hagdan at kumaliwa papunta sa pinakahuling pasilyo kung nasaan ang terrace. With a bow in her hand, she walk closer to its direction.

"My, my. What are you doing here?" She sat gracefully at the couch and smile at person in front of her.

He puffed a cigarette and smirked, "didn't expect you to come here, Shantel." She chuckled.

Bigla niyang sinipa ang kamay nito na may dagger at sinakal ito gamit ang Isang tuhod niyang nasa leeg nito.

"Not so fast, fucker." She smile and stab his both legs making the man groan in pain.

"Stay away from us, before it's too late." She said coldly.

She stand up and go back to her friends while whistling. Tumabi ulit siya kay Shaina na kumakain ng mansanas habang naglalakad.

She saw Cyan trying to touch Cheska but Cheska glaref at him. Niyapos niya ang bewang nito na mas ikinainis ng dalaga at tinapakan ang paa niyo.

"Ouch! Damn, hon!" Hindi siya pinansin ni Cheska at tumabi kay Shantel.

"Did you do it?" Shantel nod.

Tumawa ng mahina si Cheska, "Damn! He's good at acting, eh?" Shantel shrugged and glared Cyan who's about to touch Cheska.

"Go on, touch her. And I'll cut your fingers." She said coldly making the latter stilled.

"Don't you dare threaten me." Malamig niyang sabi na kinangisi ni Shantel.

"Why? You threatened, little mouse." Cyan glared at her and walk beside Slate.

Cheska tap her shoulders while staring at Cyan. Shantel sigh and was about to talk when Shaina interrupt.

"You're inlove, don't you?" Shaina asked.
