One Small Bite

Chapter 9: With the Demon

"It's already class hours, and yet you're here." Wika ni Lucas. At umupo sa tapat ko.

"Excuse parin ako mula sa classes. They said that they'll just give me handouts, sexual student. " he smirked with that.

He ordered his breakfast from the counter so he got, chicken, rice, and fruit juice--- wait. Isa ito sa mga huling kinain ko bago nila ako lasunin.
I felt a sudden fear. At tila napansin iyon ni Lucas.
"Anything wrong, H.P.V immuned student?" I fake a smile and shrugged.
Anyways, it's almost two weeks since I got discharged from that creepy hospital. And I never got a normal sleep. I always end waking up from a terrible nightmares. And I have no idea why it always happen.

"Lucas, are you a part of Sebastian's mafia?" I asked out of the blue. And he was caught of guard.

"Why are you asking me? It's not your business anymore, sweetie." I felt kinda impatient while he's pinching my nose. Damn this guy.
Instead of responding into his shit, I decided to stand up and left my unfinished breakfast. I still need to think of shit plans.
And I should warn my family. Nagbanta ang ginoong iyon na maaari nyang isunod ang kapatid ko. And I just can't let that happen. Not in the world.
When suddenly----
"What the hell? Watch your step," irita kong saad. Oh it was the bitch that has got the stollen shots on his phone.
"Venice Andrade. We need to talk. You need to come with me." I quickly fixed my gaze. Is she trying to give me an order? Oh. Boo man!
"Talk to yourself. " walang gana Kong litanya at saka ako nagpatuloy sa paglalakad. I almost scream when she violently grabbed my bruised arm and tore me away from the girl's dormitory. Damn, the bitch is too strong to handle.
She brought me in the parking ground and pushed me forcefully inside her lamborghini sesto elemento. Fuck this heavenly dream car of mine.
"What the fuck, bitchy witch! You can't just drag me like that! What the hell is your problem?!" I exclaimed as she enter and give life to the engine. Wait. Uh, did I say 'bitchy witch'? He called me with that name the last time we talk.
"Shut up, I'm not as nice as Lucas and Bruce. Be nice, young lady. My kindness is up to here." She fixed her gaze in the long, lonely road. I tried to open the door but it was locked. It took a moment before she kill the silence.
"I am Samantha Moira. And I was ordered by Emanuel Steele to bring you to the place of execution." The organisms in my mind panicked. What was this again?! Another shit? Do I really have to face trouble again?!

"Who the hell was that Idiot?!" Inis kong bulaslas. She stopped the car unexpectedly, making me bump into the dashboard.
"What the----"

"Watch your language, lady. No one calls Emanuel an idiot. And this is my last warning." Tila ba kahit among sitwasyon ay sobrang kalmado nitong isang ito. What's with her?
"Where are you taking me? What do you need from me? Damn." I cursed. Trying to control myself.

"The mafia needs all of the information. You are the best source. You will tell them everything you see inside that laboratory."

"I don't know too much." I mouthed. She stared at me.

She didn't respond and just focused on the road instead. It took an hours before we arrive at the place. Is this really an execution place? No----it's more on like a palace.

"What ever you see inside, you should keep mum about it. And please, act accordingly. Cut your stupidity for a while." I rolled my eyes. This place is too good to resist.
She parked her car in the corner of fountain. I climb out the car and we walked our way into the entrance.
"Welcome darlings. Oh so lovely ladies." Win a ng isang lalaking pababa mula sa napakalawak na hagdan. He looks like him. But I'm so sure that it's not that asshole.
There are lots of men in formal wear everywhere I look. And they were armed with guns. How do I escape? Mukhang tangkain ko palang ay makikita nakong nakahandusay.
Nakabibighani ang lugar. At masyado itong maganda para sa mga wirdong nanunuluyan rito.
"Samantha Moira, Auper and Aunice has been looking for you." Wika nito at sumenyas. I protest when she left. But I got nothing to do. I was chased by this godly-faced guy.
"So you are the first human tester. Oh. I can't wait to know your story. But manners first, let's have something to eat." He grabbed y arm and lend me way to the dinning area.
"Stop----I said stop! Don't touch me, shit face!" I cursed. He looked at me in disgust. He brought out his gun and pointed it to me. I felt the horror from the bottom of my head. Do I really have to die this way? Hopeless and weak.
"
"No one disrespects me like that. I am Emanuel Steele, and no one talks to me like that." I rolled my eyes. I got no choice. He throw me with one of the seats and asked the female in black for a grilled beef steak. And serve it immediately. He started to savour his meal. I just watched him as he continue.
"You know my little brother, Sebastian. He's so heroic. He must be feeling good after saving a worthless innocent little bitch like you." I didn't respond with that.
I felt kinda dizzy but I don't mind. I'm in front of a deadly, godly-faced man. I have to be alert.
"Manner less. Eat what's on the table." And so I did. I need something to ease the bad feeling I have right now.
So. He's another demon.
"Now, tell me everything that you've seen in that laboratory." Panimula nyang muli.
"And what would I get, if I Fed you up with the information?"
He smirked.
"It depends, gorgeous. But if you act accordingly, why not right?" He state as he sip on his good wine.
"Oh. I almost forgot, I don't trust demon. I never trusted anyone." Sagot. I felt a terrible pain from my head. Damn. This feeling is familiar again.

"You killed my son!"

I closed my eyes. Why did I heard that voice again.

"Katie, ano ba yang suot mo? Baka mamaya maraming magka-crush sayo nyan."

Damn. What the hell is happening?! Why Am I hearing those voices again.

"Happy birthday, Katie."

Sumabunot ako sa aking lugay na buhok.
"Stop! Stop!" I scream in pain.

"The fuck bitch?!" It was Emanuel.

"Aaaarrrrrggghhhh!" I screamed while terribly holding my hair. My head was aching too much again. Fuck it. I heard that Emanuel asked what's the matter. But I can't answer. It fucking hurts.

Until I stop screaming.

"Are you getting crazy?"

And so I decided to say what he wants.

"I--it was their----new creation. The---eternity. It was----a deadly drugs. And they first used it to me. And----it can---make you look like so weak--and give you pleasures mentally----but--it's--deadly. Please, I can't take it anymore, my head is aching too-too---much." Hindi ko alam kung saan ko nakuha ang lakas upang magsalita, ngunit nagawa ko. It's way better.
Then I heard something terrible. It--it was him again. I knelt in pain as I watch them two brawl.

"Fuck you, Elle! You fucking dared to fucking hurt her!" They brawl again.

"I did not! I just need an information," Kalmado, ngunit halatang nagpipigil si Emanuel.

Naka-ilang suntok sipa at tadyak pa ang magkapatid bago sila mahimasmasan pareho.

The little demon fixed his gaze on me, and urge closer as he carried me in a bridal style.

"Sebastian," I whispered as he walk a up the huge stairs.

"What?" The only thing he respond.

We stop with one of the huge wooden door. He told me to open it so I did. We enter and so he gently put me into the california king sized silk-and-velvet black bed. I closed my eyes waiting to get shot or killed. But to my surprise, he lean me to the soft and attractive surface of the bed and pulled the blanket.

"Take a rest and sleep, and leave the pain in dreams." And his voice was like he's casting a magic spell. It immediately work.
