False God

26 - ACHILLES' WRATH

PHOENIX KADEN

"Wakey wakey, baby!"

I groaned. Ang aga aga pa pero ang ingay na agad ni Piper. It's the first day of the Sports Fest. May qualifying ako for my chosen sports which is karting. The University caters to the rich, hence, racing is part of the Sports Fest.

Si Piper naman ay sa susunod na araw pa ata ang simula. She joined swimming.

I sighed when I remembered where I am. Wala na ako sa mansion ni Sacred. I am not with her anymore. And I hate that.

"Morning, P. Where's Ate K?" I asked as I held my head. Medyo masakit kasi dahil sa hangover. Dumeretso kami kagabi sa bar, after the talk.

I mean, hindi naman kapani-kapaniwala si Sacred. She keeps on blushing while talking to me. Besides, she might be carrying my child. Nasa lahi na namin ang pagiging sharp shooters. Proven and tested na.

I might be too young for some, but I've already proven myself. May maipagmamalaki na ako. Tsaka Sacred is not getting any younger. If I want a soccer team, we have to start now.

"Probably looking for her mag-iina. She's so bobo minsan. Ang dami dami na ngang pera, hindi pa rin mahanap sila Ate Zee." Umiiling na sabi niya. Bumangon na ako at nag-ayos ng susuotin.

"At least, they're safe. Should we tell her na?" Tanong ko.

"Nah. Ate is old na, tsaka hindi naman magleleave si Ate Zee if she wants Ate in her life, 'no."

I shrugged. It's their life naman. Tsaka hindi naman namin pinapabayaan si Ate Zee. We met her a few times before she left with our nieces, and she's kind. She's good for our sister.

"Wait for me downstairs, P." Utos ko bago pumasok sa comfort room ng kwarto ko. We're currently in one of our houses near the University.

Minsan lang naman ako sa condo; kapag alam ko na nasa penthouse si Sacred. But since she went home to her son of a bitch father, we stayed here.

I am thinking of her. I always do. Iniisip ko kung lalapitan ko ba siya mamaya o magpapakita na lang.

Well, I am hot, she's going to approach me for sure.

I chose a simple white shirt paired with a pair of black pants. Nagsuot na rin ako ng leather jacket dahil medyo maulan pa rin.

"PK, let's go na?" Piper asked. Nakatayo siya sa may tapat ng pinto ko. I nodded my head and walked towards her.

"What helmet should I use, P?" Tanong ko. I dragged her towards my helmet collection to make her choose.

"Use this one, baby. It has the family crest, and your future wife's name." Turo ni Piper sa paborito kong helmet.

It's a red helmet with touches of white. May red and white fleur-de-lis din ang sumasakop sa tuktok at likod ng helmet ko. May nakalagay rin na SACRED sa may upper left ng visor.

I giggled before getting the helmet out of the display box.

"Tara na, baby. Baka malate tayo," sabi ni Piper at hinila na ako.

We used her Maybach to get to school.

She likes collecting cars while I like collecting motorbikes. Masyadong mahal ang hobbies namin, buti na lamang at may kinukuhanan kami ng pera.

"I'll see you later, yeah?" I nodded and kisses her cheeks. Pumunta ako sa stairs malapit sa office ni Sacred. Why not? She'll be there, for sure.

"I saw Professor Montenegro and Doctor Madrigal kissing underneath the tree sa may garden." Rinig kong sabi ng isang estudyante na daan sa tapat ko.

I tried to remain calm and listen more. Apparently, a lot has seen them kissing.

I walked towards the garden where they were seen. They're still there. Nakahawak ang kamay ni Sacred sa braso ng lalaki niya.

That guy's biceps are not even that muscular. I rolled my eyes. The sight is suffocating me. Damn it, Sacred. You're really testing my patience.

I walked closer to them, but not enough for Sacred to see me. However, it is enough to hear them flirt.

"Just go to dinner with me." I heard the ugly guy said. I rolled my eyes. I didn't wait for so long just for him to swoop in and date my Sacred.

"Sure, handsome. I can go to as many dinners as you want." I snickered. Come now, Sacred, you know you don't want to do that.

"Ako na ata ang pinakaswerte na lalaki, Sac—"

"Do not fucking dare, Bailey." I chuckled lowly. Of course, she'll get mad. Because Sacred is mine. To others, she's Quinn.

"So-sorry." I heard that Bailey guy said. Nagpapacute pa talaga siya sa Sacred ko. Damn it, damn it. I don't know how more of this I can take.

"Anyway, I have to go back to the hospital." Bailey guy closed in and kissed my Sacred, on the lips. Fuck. Agad kong kinuha ang bag ko na nakasabit sa isang balikat.

Kinuha ko ang wet wipes at hinintay umalis ang lalaki ni Sacred. Instead, he fucking deepened their kiss.

I walked towards them and put my hand around his neck.

Sinuntok ko ang sobrang kapal na mukha niya. It'll wound my hand for sure.

"What the fuck?!" He yelled. Lumaban siya ng suntok saakin, and now we're punching each other's faces! Great!

But I was a lot stronger than him. Sayang lang ang muscles sa biceps niya. Nakahiga na siya sa damuhan, face full of blood. Nakaupo na ako sa bandang tyan niya, magkabila at sunod sunod na suntok ang ginawa ko.

I chuckled when I see him bleeding. God, I love blood. Panigurado na tumalsik na rin ang dugo niya sa mukha ko, I can feel it rushing down. I licked my lips and tasted how awful his blood tasted.

"STOP KADEN! YOU'RE KILLING HIM!" Sigaw ni Sacred sa likod ko. Agad tumigil ang mga kamao ko. Damn it. I totally forgot about my dear Sacred.

I stood up and looked at my Sacred.

I tilted my head when I saw fear in her eyes. Is she afraid of me? Agad napawi ang ngiti sa labi ko.

She is. She's afraid of me.

She's afraid of the true me.
