They had left snowy trails for her to follow, to find them where they had flown far away from her wings.

Chapter 62
His Embrace
It's usually a man who gets sent to a war or battle. As a woman who will step into an unknown territory and danger with a weapon in my hands and brilliance in my eyes, my heart is awfully terrified and screaming.
Sino bang hindi kakabahan? There are dangerous people who can hurt me and my squad. Alam ko kung paano protektahan ang sarili ko katulad ng tinuro sa akin ng Trinity brothers...
But it's not enough. Anything can happen. I can be prepared for battle and yet something unexpected might penetrate through my guard. That's what I'm most afraid.
After taking a shower and dressing up in black pants, boots, and a shirt tucked in my belt, I walked to the hotel the Hanselions rented for themselves near the encampment.
Napapalibutan ito ng mga guards at hindi sila basta-basta pumapayag na magpapasok ng ibang tao maliban kung may permiso sila na makapasok mula sa prinsipe.
So far, I'm the only person they allowed to enter inside the hotel. Kahit nasa lobby pa lang ako, may mga nag-sumiyasat na kaagad sa akin kahit sinabi ko ang pangalan ko.
I managed to get into the elevator after they inspected me.
Once I reached their floor, hinanap ko ang kwarto ni Tyler. Hiwa-hiwalay kasi sila ng kwarto, bawat floor ng hotel inangkin nila. They have it all to themselves for a good reason.
I knocked on his door. Footsteps are heard from the inside until the door swings open for me.
Namula ang pisngi ko nang makita ko si Tyler na suot lang ang tuwalya sa kanyang balakang, bagong ligo lang at amoy fresh pa siya, basa pa rin ang buhok niya. Ang obra maestra niyang katawan ang bumungad ng magandang umaga sa akin.
"You came just the right time."
"Are you sure?"
"Absolutely. Come in."
Nang tumalikod siya para pumunta sa kusina, I peered into the small of his back and the tender muscles on his shoulder blades. The way he graciously moves is hypnotizing.
He's so beautiful. A living art and sculpture of the greatest artists of all time.
Nagtimpla siya ng tsaa mula sa kitchen counter top bago niya hinatid ito sa akin. The tea cup is still steaming with a honey aroma. I never thought making tea would be this hot.
"You looked thirsty so I made tea." Sabi niya.
"Thank you."
Hindi ko namalayan na nakaawang na pala ang bibig ko. Why does he have to look so damn perfect with just a towel?
