Found You, Cindirella (Cast a Spell Series #2)

Chapter XVIII

Her

"You're lying to me, Ci."

I gulped and shook my head. "Hindi ko alam ang sinasabi mo." I denied.

"You are! You said you're..." He swallowed hard. "gay..." He trailed off.

Kumumot ang noo ko dahil sa kalituhan. He glared at me and crossed his arms.

"But you flirted with a girl!" He accused.

Oh... Oh!

"Wala 'yon." Umiling ako at nagpakawala ng buntong-hininga. Akala ko naman narinig niya ang pinag-usapan namin ni Rony!

"You're flirting!" He accused. Mukhang ang sama-sama ng loob niya, siguro ay dahil inagaw ko ang chix niya.

"Ano naman ngayon?" Nakakunot ang noo kong tanong.

Ngumuso siya at sinamaan ako ng tingin. "Stop flirting! You should be protecting me."

Inirapan ko siya. "Iniwan mo ako, paano kita mapoprotektahan?"

He scrunched his nose. "Hindi na. Dito na ako sa tabi mo." Aniya at lumapit sa tabi ko, umusog naman ako. Ano bang nangyayari sa kaniya?

"Hendrik! Kanina pa kita hinahanap!" Biglang sumulpot si Jericho sa harapan namin, may dala-dalang bote ng alak at babae sa tabi niya. He was holding the girl's waist.

The girl's eyes went to Erikson and a glint appeared as if she hit a jackpot. I stepped forward, blocking the girl's view of him. Kahit na maliit ako kumpara kay Erikson ay nagawa ko namang ma-distract ang babae dahil bumaling siya sa akin. She must've thought she could do  threesome with Jericho and Erikson but I won't let that happen! Babantayan ko si Erikson.

"Ano?" Hamon ko sa babae kaya napaatras ito at nagtago sa likod ni Jericho.

Humalakhak si Jericho. "Talo ka, Erikson! Naunahan kita ng babae! Bakit ka kasi lumapit diyan sa bodyguard mo? Alam mo namang madaming takot na babae diyan!"

"Shut-up!" Si Erikson sa likod ko.

"Well, I guess it's a good thing. Henry called and told me your finacée would pay you a visit tomorrow. Thanks bro. Baka napatay ako ng mapapangasawa niya kapag nalaman niyang may babaeng umaaligid sa kaniya." He tapped my should tauntingly, I clenched my jaw.

"Hindi ko 'to ginagawa para sa finacée niya." I hissed and swat his hands off my shoulder.

Jericho chuckled, provoking me. "Oh! Huwag mo sabihing ginagawa mo 'to dahil nagse—"

"I'm simply doing my job and that is protecting him including from diseases." I cut him off.

"Bahala ka." Irap niya sabay agaw kay Erikson sa likuran ko kaya sinamaan ko siya ng tingin.

"Ci..." Bulong ni Erikson.

Kaya inagaw ko muli si Erikson sa kaniya. Jericho's jaw ticked and he tried to snatch him away but I punched his hands off his arms. He groaned and glared at me.

"Entertain your girl." Sabi ko sabay sulyap sa babaeng nakatago pa rin sa likuran niya.

"Huwag mo ngang inaalis kay Hendrik ang kalayaan niya! Hayaan mo muna siyang magsaya bago siya ikasal!"

"Shut the fuck up." I hissed at him, irritated at the topic.

"Kung makaarte ka para kang girlfrie—"

I punched him. Straight to the face. Erikson gasped while Jericho staggered back. His girl toy or whatsoever behind him glared at me but she's smart enough to pull him away from me.
