Alluring Innocence (Seven Deadly Sinners #2)

Chapter 40

"MY LOVE.." Unique whispered while gently caressing Parixia's cheek, afraid that she'll hurt her in any way.

Nasa loob sila ng malawak na silid ni Unique. Nagamot na rin ang lahat ng nakuhang sugat ni Parixia, pero sa bawat galos, hiwa, at saksak na nakita ni Unique kanina ay parang doble ang sakit na balik sa kanya. She wants to kill, just like before, and punish those who hurt her woman. Just, how dare them?

Mas lalo lang nadadagdagan ang galit na nararamdaman niya sa bawat oras na lumilipas at hindi pa rin nagigising si Parixia. Malapit nang mag-umaga at hindi na lumabas pa ng kwarto si Unique para samahan ang huli. She can feel the excruciating pain of not being able to do anything to ease her pain.

It's shattering her soul, to see her beloved woman in this kind of state. Ang dami ng benda na nakalagay dito. Marami ang galos, lalo na sa bandang kamay. May saksak din siya ng kutsilyo sa kanang braso at parte ng hita. May tama ng baril sa likod. Those are more than enough to fuel her anger.

"Be okay, please." Unique pleaded as she kissed her Commander's forehead in a loving manner.

Nakahiga sa malambot na kama si Parixia at may mga nakakabit na kung ano-ano para mapabilis ang pag-galing. Habang si Unique naman ay nakasandal sa headboard ng kama at nakaupo sa gilid nito. Hindi siya komportable na mahiga katabi nito lalo na't nasa masamang kalagayan ang huli.

"How dare them do this to you?" She whispered, asking no particular person.

Her eyes were sparkling with different kinds of emotions. Pero mas nangingibabaw ang pag-aalala niya. She may look calm, but the devil inside her is slowly consuming her sanity, leaving her no choice but to be the person she used to be, for the woman she loves.

She can't even thought of hurting Parixia. Ni hindi niya naisip na saktan siya sa kahit na anong paraan. So, how can those people hurt somebody she value most? How did they managed to lay a finger on somebody she can't even hurt? To somebody she's afraid to hurt?

This is surely maddening.

Hindi nagsasawa si Unique na titigan si Parixia na payapang natutulog sa kama niya. She's sleeping as if nothing hurts, but, it is certain that she never regret doing what she did. Their love is too much that it'll overwhelm anyone.

She's looking at Parixia with every gentleness she has. Ang lambot ng ekspresyon ng mukha niya, pero kita ang kadiliman sa mga mata. Nawala ang kislap ng kahit na anong kasiyahan. Her eyes were left lifeless, looking as black as the hell.

Knock! Knock!

Napatingin si Unique sa pinto nang may kumatok at unti-unti itong bumukas. Bumungad naman sa kanya si Avery na hindi na nagtaka nang makita na gising pa siya para bantayin si Parixia.

"Sunny is sleeping. Nakatulog na katatanong kung anong nangyari." Kwento nito sa kanya pero walang gana lang siyang tinignan nung huli.

Sunny didn't witnessed what happened to Parixia, and she's now sleeping in one of the rooms in this mansion. It's almost 5am in the morning, but, Avery feels bothered. Ilang oras pa lang ang naitutulog niya. Nakita niya rin kasi kung ano ang kalagayan ng kaibigan.

"Who do you think it is, ate?" Unique asked. Mukha siyang walang gana pero matalim ang tingin ng mga mata, habang yakap sa baywang si Parixia. She hugs her in a possessive manner, not wanting to share her woman to anyone.

Avery shook her head as she walked slowly towards Unique. "I have no idea. Wala naman siyang nababanggit na kaaway niya."

"Is it possible that it's dad?" Diretsong tanong ni Unique kaya natigilan si Avery at bakas ang gulat sa mukha niya.
