12 - Empress
-For some reason, when I tried approaching Estévez he avoided me like he already knew what happened. Fucking coward. I locked myself inside my room, shutting anyone to get in even Rowan. The person I needed right now was only dad.
What? How many days it has been? two or three... I don't know anymore. A day ago when I went to Ravensburg, found nothing but I recognized some of the men that captured Sirius. Ayaw nilang magsalita so I just killed them.
Now, I was laying down in my bed... helpless. Tinaas ko ang baril na hawak, there are still blood on it but its already dried. I closed my eyes. "I think this will be my end, rius..."
"Highness... wake up!"
"Matias, get me a wet towel."
I could feel someone wiping the blood on my hands. "Hmmm...." I felt weak and hungry but I had no urge to eat.
"Highness, here food. Wether you like it or not, you need to eat. Silas, help me force this inside her mouth." Ani Elias. Pilit nila akong pinaupo sa kama. They really did it, pagtapos nilang isubo sakin yung pagkain, tinakpan agad ni Silas yung bunganga ko. I didn't chewed it, I just swallowed it.
My messy room has already been cleaned up by them. I noticed the broken window as if they forced themselves to get in here. "Did I allow you to enter my room without my permission?"
"We had no choice, highness. We've been told by your brother, di ka na raw kumakain o lumalabas ng kwarto. He doesn't have any idea of what's happening to you."
"Still. You shouldn't break in here."
Marahas na nilagay ni Silas yung tinapay sa kamay ko. "You have no right to do that. Our job is to protect you. Even if you loathe us that much, this is our job. If you don't like that idea, wala kang ibang choice, highness."
"Ubusin mo yan. Stop being dejected because that's not you, highness. We'll help you look for Sirius." Matias said.
Huminga ako nang malalim at inubos lahat ng pagkain na hinanda nila sakin pagtapos pumasok sa loob ng banyo para linisin ang sariling katawan. I forced my brain to shut down from thinking about Sirius. He's not dead... I need to find him, naghihintay siya sakin.
Paglabas ko, bumungad sakin ang mga taong nagkakagulo sa loob ng kwarto ko. Even Rowan was here meanwhile the high chancellor - Vergara was facing me. "What are you all doing here?"
"Princess Lily... you must now come with us." Nayuyukong aniya.
I guess I didn't committed a sin. They were all bowing their head down to me. Even Rowan himself and Marticia. What the hell is happening?
Habang naglalakad papasok sa grand hall, manang Sonya put a red robe on my shoulder para siguro di ako lamigin. When I gazed down the window because of the noises, my eyes widened nang makitang maraming tao ang nasa labas ngayon ng palasyo.
"What the hell is happening." Bulong ko kay Elias na tahimik din habang seryosong nakatingin sa harapan.
When I followed where is he looking, napatakip ako nang bibig nang makita si Dad na nakahiga sa gitna, still covered in blood and lifeless...
"Dad!"
I cried so hard while checking his breathing. "Wake up, dad!" I placed my hand above his chest and push it hard repetitively but he's not waking up. Lumapit na sakin si Rowan at sapilitan akong hinila patayo.
