"MOVE QUIETLY AND quickly. I don't want the media buzzing about us. They might reveal my identity once we made the wrong move" sabi ni Devon sa mga tao nya

"Yes, Your Highness" sagot ng mga ito

"Finish everything like planned and the Queen is at stake now. We should be careful" sabi nya saka tinalikuran ang mga ito. Mula sa basement ay nagtungo sya sa ikaunang palapag ng bahay

"Your highness, I didn't know that you're here" sabi nya ng makita si Xyrus na prenteng nakaupo sa couch katabi nito si Thomas "And you? What brings you here?"

"This motherfucking royalty asked me to tag along because he's fucking bored and lonely"

Ngumiti si Xyrus "I want to get laid but I just can't" sabi nito

Kumunot ang noo nya sa sinabi nito "Get laid and you're here? Don't play with my servants please" sabi nya at inirapan ito

Natawa ng mahina si Xyrus "Then can I sleep with you?"

Tinignan nya ng masama si Xyrus "Do you want me to kill you?"

"Kidding, Devon. I'm just bored that's why I am here. I was joking earlier" sabi nito

"Is this because of that woman you met in the dock?" tanong nya rito at pinagkrus ang braso

Bumuntong hininga si Xyrus at nag-iwas ng tingin "I can't forget about her"

"You know where she is. Why don't you go to her instead of staying here" sabi nya at muli itong inirapan

"My fiance will know and she will tell to Father for sure" sabi ni Xyrus at bumuntong hininga

Tinignan nya ang oras sa relo "I could take you to her without your fiance knowing" sabi nya at nginisian ito

"Then I'll make her a bad woman if I show up" sabi nito

"Nobility and their responsibility" sabi nya at napailing "Then do tell me if you want your fiance to be dispose and strip out of her title. Her family is a piece of shit anyway"

"You're a bad influence" sabi ni Xyrus

"I always am" nakangising sabi nya at tumayo "Call Lourd if you need anything. I'll just call Khai"

"Who's Khai?" takang tanong ni Thomas

"Her beloved boyfriend"

Ngumiti lang sya saka lumapit sa bintana at kinuha ang cellphone sa bulsa. Tinawagan nya si Khairro na agad naman nitong sinagot "Hey, Khai..."

(Babe, I missed you)

"One more week, Khai. We just have to endure" sabi nya at napayuko. Kinagat nya ang pang-ibabang labi para pigilin ang luha

(I know. How are you?)

"I'm fine. Lourd is feeding me good foods" sabi nya

(Now i'm jealous. Lourd is always with you)

Natawa sya ng mahina "Don't be, Khai. Lourd is my butler and he's nice"

Rinig nyang bumuntong hininga ito sa kabilang linya (I love you, babe. So much)

Hindi nya mapigilan ang mapaluha dahil sa sinabi nito "Me too, Khai. I love you...so much"

"Miss..."

Napalingon sya sa gilid at bumuntong hininga saka pinunasan ang luhang tumulo sa pisngi nya "I'll call you again, Khai. I love you" sabi nya at binaba ang tawag

"Are they ready?" tanong nya kay Lourd

"Yes, Miss" sabi nito at kinuha ang cellphone nya "Order from the higher ups, Miss. I have to take your cellphone and you can't use the telephone to call your boyfriend"

"Am I being weak again?" tanong nya at napayuko ng tumulo ang isang luha sa pisngi nya

"You've been worst, Miss. That six months without him was already hellish for you. You can endure this time. I'll update him from time to time, don't worry" sabi nito at inabutan sya ng panyo

Tinanggap nya iyon at pinunasan ang pisngi "Thank you, Lourd" sabi nya at nagpakawala ng malalim na hininga "Let's go and finish this so I can go home"

"YOU'RE NOT DRINKING, that's new" sabi ni Leif

Ngumiti lang si Khairro "I want to be sober if I face my babe" sabi nya

"We still have three days to drink" sabi ni Leif

Umiling sya "Her butler is calling me and asking me if I'm fine. I don't want to worry my babe if I answer the phone drunk" sabi nya at nilingon si Lexxus na karga karga ang anak nito "What's with you? You look like shit"

"My wife is busy at work. Hindi pa sya umuuwi simula nung isang araw. I miss her" sabi nito

"Kaya pala ulirang ama ang ganap mo" natatawang sabi ni Leif

Tinignan ni Lexxus ang anak at napangiti "He's so adorable" sabi nito

"Yeah, Liam took after your wife that's why he doesn't look like a shit like you"

"I'm handsome, Leif" may pagmamalaking sabi ni Lexxus "And take it back, my son took after me. He looks like me"

Umiling si Leif "Whatever" sabi nito at nilabas ang cellphone na nag-iingay saka ngumisi "Excuse me, I'll take this call"

"Love sick fool" sabi ni Khairro at tinignan si Lexxus na karga ang anak "How does it feel?"

Nilingon sya ni Lexxus "What?"

"To have a child?"

Tinignan ni Lexxus ang anak at napangiti "So much happiness and peace" sabi nito at tinignan sya "My wife and my child bring happines in my life. When he came out to the world, I told to myself that I'm very lucky....they completed me"

Napatango sya "I always wanted a child of my own" mahinang sabi nya

"I know that. Pregnancy fascinates you so much that's why you learned everything about it. Even animal pregnancy" sabi ni Lexxus

Bumuntong hininga sya "I wanna impregnate my girlfriend but we're still in the middle of chaos"

"We're all in the middle of it, Khairro and she's leading everything about this chaos. Just be her home and take good care of her" sabi nito

"WHY DID YOU call for me?" tanong ni Khairro kay Justine. Napalingon sya kay Albert na katabi nito "Hey, dude. You're here too"

Tinignan sya ni Justine ng matagal na kinakunot ng noo nya

"Magtititigan lang ba ito? Spit it out, I need to fetch my girl" sabi nya at nakamot sa noo

"It's about Devon..."

"What about her?" tanong nya rito

"I just find out who she really is" sabi nito

Kumunot ang noo nya sa sinabi nito "What do you mean?"

"The Mitchell's...they are no ordinary people. And the Devon..we are with speaking with two weeks ago... she's not the real Devon"
