Chapter 18: Reality

Reality

Robin's POV

Alistair was looking at me lying in his bed with eyes full of love. I wanted to frown because he's been like that for minutes already.

He was standing near the bed, kanina pa kami nagising at lumabas na rin ako kanina. Sa tingin ko ay wala na ang babae niya dahil hinayaan niya akong mamasyal sa labas ng kanyang silid kanina.

"Could you quit with the staring? It's too early," nakabusangot kong sita sa kanya.

He shook his head as if he was pulled back to reality. "I'm sorry, venom. I was trying to memorize your face."

"You're weird," tumayo ako at inayos ang aking buhok.

"When will I see you again?" naglalambing niyang tanong. He went in my direction to hug me from behind as he buried his face to my neck.

"Depends," maikling sagot ko.

I heard him chuckle. "Can I just go there and introduce myself already?"

I sighed. "You can't. Not now."

"What if you come here and my vampires see you?" nag aalala niyang tanong.

I held his hand that was in my waist. "I'll use my portal to arrive here in your chambers."

"Hmm..." he nodded and then he kissed my neck. "One sip."

I stayed silent and felt him kissing my neck. "I'm going to miss you... so bad..." he whispered.

"I'll miss you too," sagot ko sa kanya at tumingala upang mahalikan niya ng maigi ang aking leeg.

Alistair sat in the bed kaya kusa akong napaupo habang nakatalikod sa kandungan niya. "You're so addicting..."

His grip in my waist tightened when he dug his fangs to my neck. "Ahh..." daing ko dahil sa pinaghalong sakit.

I closed my eyes, waiting for him to finish but when he stopped drinking my blood he went back to kissing my neck. "I love you."

I smiled. "I have to go."

Inayos niya ang yakap niya sa akin at inamoy ang aking balikat. "Be sure to come back or else I'll go to your city."

"I promise, I'll be back," I assured him. "And don't you dare go to Auroravale, the enchantment will freeze you to death, I don't want that to happen."

Humarap ako sa kanya at ngumiti, and once again he looked shocked that I smiled in front of him. I planted a kiss on his cheek.

"Kailangan ko ng umalis," tumayo ako sa harap.

"Hmm..." he nodded. He held my cheeks and planted a soft kiss on my lips.

Alistair brought me outside his palace, hindi ko mawari kung umaga na ba dahil sa kadiliman na bumabalot sa buong lugar.

Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko at inalalayan ako sa pagsakay sa aking kabayo.

"Take care," he said.

Lumabas galing sa palasyo si Amon. "Ingat."

Tumango lamang ako sa kanilang dalawa hanggang sa tuluyan akong lamunin ng aking kapangyarihan.

I made sure to arrive outside the gates of the city so they wouldn't be suspicious. Pagpasok ko ay pinagtitinginan ako ng mga mamamayan ngunit pinanatili kong naka diretso ang aking tingin.

Pagdating ko sa palasyo ay nadatnan ko si Magnus na nakikipaglaro kay Amara.

"Kambal!" Magnus yelled, he was carrying Amara and the little princess looked like she was having the time of her life with my twin.
