The Wolf King and I
Epilogue

I think destiny is making fun of us.

This woman must be the reincarnation of Jia from the past.

I can't believe that my favorite author is the same woman who I banished from the palace before.

Pero hindi ko alam kung bakit wala akong makapang galit sa dibdib ko habang nakatitig sa maganda niyang mukha.

It feels like what happened between us already happened a very long time ago. Ang isa pa ay hindi naman siya si Jia ng nakaraan. I don't even know if she remembers her past life or if she can recognize me.

I know that we have the same face as Empress Chin, but will she recognize the woman who caused her misery in her past life?

A faint smile drew up into her face before she spoke. Pero naramdaman ko nalang ang unti-unting panlalaki ng mga mata ko nang dahil sa sumunod niyang sinabi.

"It is nice to see you again, your majesty." She even bow down her head.

Hindi naman ako makapaniwalang napatingin sa kanya.

So, she remembers her past life as well?!

"Jia..." her name accidentally slipped from my lips.

Isang matamis na ngiti lang ang isinagot niya sa akin.

"Actually, I'm Natalie Wang now." She spoke with a friendly smile. "Or you might know me from my pen name N.T. Wang."

Itinaas niya ang kamay niya para makipag-shakehands sa akin.

"And you must be...?" she asked.

Hindi ko alam pero wala na akong nararamdaman na galit o poot sa puso ko kapag naalala ko siya. Ngayon ay magaan na ang pakiramdam ko pagdating sa kanya.

Tinanggap ko ang kamay niya at nakangiti namang sumagot.

"Reina Ramos." I introduced myself.

Naupo ako sa silya na kaharap ng table niya. Napansin ko na nagpapahinga na siya mula sa mahabang pila ng mga nagpapapirma sa kanya kanina kaya naiwan kaming dalawa sa table.

"Reina, I remember everything from my past life, and I know you remember yours too." She spoke.

Hindi naman ako makapaniwalang napatingin sa kanya.

"But why—-"

Her sweet smile that I never saw from the past Jia was painted into her lips.

"Well, it all happened to me like a dream. In my dream, I saw the life of the woman I was before. I may not like her evil schemes and the way she lived her life, but I was touched to see how much she loved the Emperor Zhang Wei. And for that..." Her friendly gaze looked at me. "I made a story that will comfort her heart from the heavens. Even if it is only fictional, at least she got the chance to win the Emperor's heart in the manhwa that I have created. "

So this is the reason.

The reason that the manhwa was created was to ease the pain from the past Jia's tormented heart.

"I hope you didn't felt bad from the story that I have created, Reina." She added then grin so playfully before she clasp her hands together. "Afterall, it made a lot of money for me. I can't change the story now. I'm sorry. I'll just write another story for you and Zhang Wei. Please forgive me this once, okay? Please don't banish me again. Please?"

She begging me like a child while grinning from ear to ear.

I can't help but to smile.

She is Jia, but not the Jia that I knew from the past. I never saw that kind of happy expression from my lost friend.
