"Why did you told him you're Azi's father, Hanzo?" Naguguluhang tanong ni Avria pagkarating nila sa loob ng mansyon. Hinarap niya ang dalawang lalaki matapos niyang iabot kay Nanay Vee si Azilian.
"Why are you with him, Avi?" Balik na tanong ni Hanzo, worry is visible on his face. Even Wesley na madalas niyang nakikitang walang pakealam sa paligid ay seryoso at matigas ang ekspresyon ng mukha ngayon. They seem so alarmed.
"We did everything to protect you and get you away from Nicolo's mess with Lady Z but here you are, baiting yourself again to a Hontiveros." Hanzo stated in a stern voice.
Avria fell into silence. She didn't know what to say. Hindi niya naman kasi alam na isang Hontiveros pala si Ren. And who would have thought that that man with a very charming smile and cheerful presence is from a mighty and dangerous clan?
Buong akala niya ay normal na tao lang si Ren. Isang potensiyal na kaibigan. The time she spent with him was good and worthwhile. He seemed genuine and really kind.
Was he fooling and playing her around?
"Is he spying on me?" Mahinang tanong niya.
"He might be. We can't say his true intention or if you just met him by accident. But it's better for you to stay away from him, Avria." Saad ni Wesley.
"He looked harmless.." anas niya. Parang unfair naman kasi na pagdudahan si Ren dahil lang sa isa itong Hontiveros. He has been nice to her, he wasn't even suspicious. Malayo ang aura nito kay Lady Z na tila walang emosyon at sumisigaw ng kapangyarihan ang mukha. Ren looked pretty normal.
Nevertheless, that explains despite Ren's boyish and charming traits, he had this unexplainable odd aura. Because he is a Hontiveros.
"Every Hontiveros is harmful, Avria." Giit ni Hanzo.
"Minsan kung sino pa ang mukhang mabait, sila pa ang may pinakamaitim na balak." Segunda ni Wesley.
She winced a bit at Wesley's statement. "Wow, ang lalim nun ah."
"We're serious, Avi." Mariing sambit ni Hanzo.
She sighed in defeat. "Yeah, I know. I'm sorry. Mas mag- iingat na ako sa mga taong lumalapit sa'kin."
They have a point though. Kaya nga siya nagparaya upang hindi mapahamak ang pamilya at anak niya. Magaan ang loob niya kay Ren pero hindi niya dapat isaalang alang ang kapakanan niya. She have to stay away from the Hontiveros clan no matter what.
Mainam na rin na si Hanzo ang kilala nitong ama ni Azilian. It will prevent them from any conflicts in case Ren or someone else is really spying on them.
"By the way, kapatid ba siya ni Zipporah?" Kuryusong tanong niya.
"Yes. Half brother." Turan ni Wesley.
"Like Dylan?"
Tumango si Hanzo. "There are ten total heirs of the clan. All half siblings, conceived by different mothers."
Her mouth fell agape. Sampung anak sa iba't ibang babae? Kingina, puro panganay? The head of the Hontiveros must be a certified cruel casanova. Hindi niya pa ito nakikita sa personal and she never wish to meet him. Sa mga naririnig at nalalaman niya pa lang ay hindi na kaaya aya sa kan'ya ang imahe nito. Plus the fact that the Hontiveros siblings have this unending rivalries, competing each other for the clan's power and authority.
They're all blood related yet they're no family.
Naisip niya tuloy. Lady Z must've suffered a lot. Lalo na't ito ang nag- iisang babae.
"Don't associate yourself with strangers, Avi. For the main time, just focus on yourself and on Baby Azi. Get prepared for the upcoming events." Anas muli ni Hanzo na kumuha sa atensyon niya. Tumaas ang kan'yang kilay sa pagtataka.
