traydor na pag-ibig (a traitorous love), marion aunor, 00.25.
this happens every time, the bitter thought plagued my mind.crimson stains ivory robes, past a wound i've been impaled through in every lifetime i ever lived.
overlooking the dull throb and the sword impaling my ribs, i staggered to face the traitorous vipers i had considered my dearest allies. the woman they dethroned me for, a crook i once dared to call sister, looked down on me with lidded eyes. she wore the crown i had rightfully earned and carried.
my lungs haemorrhaged. once. twice.
passive, hardened expressions stared back at me. they said nothing back.
this happens every time.
"viva la reina caida," i whisper with my dying breath. i crumple to the marble floor.
long live the fallen queen.
