The Girl Who Can't Say NO

Chapter 10

ANASTASIJA

"I heard you're in the mansion, so I dropped by. How did you manage to sneak past your guards?" Amusement filled Devion's voice.

"I have a card pass with me," I pointed at Delly who's now talking with her father. "Is there still something you didn't know, Die?" I mocked him. I guess he knows everything, even my life story.

There's nothing on the underground that Master Ares didn't know. He can find anything he wants to know with the large intel he has.

"So you're using my little demon sister to sneak past your guards, huh?" He smirked. "Is Dea that skillful? Maybe you made her seduce the guards, I'm telling you Anastasija-" Natigil ito ng makatanggap ng batok mula kay Delly.

"Are you saying that your sister is nothing but a fvcking attention-whore, Devion Irien Eqilois?" Umuusok sa galit na tanong ni Delly.

"I didn't say otherwise, it was you who assumed it!" It was rare seeing Devion acting like a child, he can only be like this in front of his little sister.

"You made it sound that way!" Delly argued with Devion. They really can be overbearing sometimes, halatang miss nila ang isa't-isa.

Little sister. I wish I was someone's little sister too. Only child ako kaya impossible na magkaroon ako ng Kuya. But after a while of living with Tanda, I somehow share a weird bond with those siblings. Unfortunately, they're childish except that one. Technically, I can treat him as my older brother. We somehow share the same vibes.

Napailing nalang ako while I walked past the siblings who's still arguing by the hall. Some of the guards around the house greeted me, I remember some of them and some are newbies I guess. Dumiretso ako sa main office ni Senior Stefano and knock on the door using our code. Bumukas naman agad ito.

"Katana" Agad na napatayo si Tito Stefan pagkakita sa akin. Marahil hindi nya inaasahan ang pagdating ko. O sinadyang hindi sabihin sakanya ng mga tauhan nya.

"I've been trying to find you, where have you been?" May pag-aalalang tanong nito while he has me seated on the long sofa inside his office.

Naupo naman ito sa tabi ko.

"Long story, Tito. Had it not been because of Delly I can't come here today," I sigh as I explained.

"Walang nabanggit sa akin si Dea. Nasaan na nga pala ang babaeng iyon?" Magiliw nitong saad.

"She's currently with Ares, Tito"

"Nakapagtataka. Ngayon ka lang bumisita rito na kasama si Dea. So, what's the reason?" Tito Stefan changed the topic.

Hindi ko masisisi na magtanong sya. My private matters are kept even to our closest acquaintances and family friends. And knowing the network of Tanda, malamang ay itatago nya talaga ako.

"Marami lamang mata, Tito. Just taking some safety measures," I shrugged. "But for that matter, I'm here to deliver some news"

"What is it, hija?" He offered me a seat. Naupo naman ako sa sofa na katapat ng table ni Tito Stefan kung saan sya nakaupo ngayon.

"Keeno and Zenia aproached me yesterday. It was regarding their mission last auction." Hindi na ako nagpaligoy-ligoy pa.

"I was trying to trace them for the last three days but I can't. Are they able to contact you?" Kunot-noong tanong into.

"Yes," I nod. "I met them yesterday in the parking lot of Freedom High. Gusto nilang iparating ko sayo ang kanilang mensahe"
