THIRTY-EIGHT.
Iniwasan ko ang lumilipad na dagger na itinapon sa'kin ng bampirang nasa malayo. Pagka-ilag ko ay hinabol ko ito at binato pabalik, but, I already calculated the velocity and speed so that it will directly pierced through the vampire's heart.
Sinipa ko ang humawak sa likod ko, sinuntok ko ito sa mukha at umiwas sa mga suntok na paparating. Sinipa ko siya sa pribado niyang parte bago kinuha ang kutsilyo na nakita ko sa gilid at tuluyang pinugutan siya ng ulo.
Everything is a mess.
And I'm trying not to give all of my energy because the plan is still intact. We need to make sure we're gonna get captured and get in to their lair. Nothing changes.
I screamed in pain when someone stabbed me in the chest, I let the man tied me with iron as I feel the pain and in my waist whole-heartedly. Luminga-linga ako at nakita na ang iba ay nagpapahuli na din. Nakita ko ang pag-takas ni Charlie the demon at nakita ko ang pag-kindat niya saakin bago umalis.
Napa-irap ako. Still the fucking same idiot, huh?

I can clearly hear Night's moan in pain from here. Even if I tried shutting off my sense of hearing, I can still hear it. I can still fucking hear it. I closed my eyes as Night's screams cover my ears. Umiiyak na si Lora and we were all quiet.
No.
This is not a part of the fucking plan to get Night tortured. Damn it.
"Stop it." I said when I can't handle Night's screams anymore. Ngumisi ang shape-shifter na nagbabantay saamin pero hindi nagsalita.
"I said stop it." I loudly said, but the fucking shape-shifter is doing nothing.
I closed my eyes then breathed deeply, "I said you fucking stop it!" I shouted, the shape-shifter's expression changed.
He glared at me and then grip tightly in my chin. "Bakit? Gusto mo ikaw ang ipalit doon?" Naka-ngisi nitong tanong.
I spit at his face.
He glared at me, "Fuck you." I cursed him, his jaw clenched and released my chains and held me tightly in my neck.
"Felix! Ito naman ang pagkatuwaan niyo!" Sigaw nito.
I saw Thean as we pass through his cell, "No. Lex. No! Let go of my sister! No!" Thean shouted as he continues to struggle at the chain.
I saw Night's bloody and tired face. Noong nakita niya ko ay kaagad siyang umiling, "Ako na lang. Torture me more! Leave her alone!" He shouted but he got chained up in the chair in front of me.
Napa-iling ako sakanya. We're not even that close to sacrifice for me. I can handle the pain, alone. I am in this business for a very long time. I already know the feeling.
Tumawa ang shape-shifter, "Panoorin mo maghirap ang kaibigan mo." Sabi nito at iniharap ang mukha ni Night saakin. He shook his head repeatedly. I almost cried in pain when Felix the fucking vampire stabbed me in my stomach. Madaming dugo ang kaagad na lumabas doon.
Felix laughed, "I always enjoy watching you suffer, Alexa. Do you remember me? We were so close back then." Naka-ngisi niyang sabi and cutted my cheeks using a dagger.
I screamed in pain. Fuck. My wounds aren't healing. I can hear Thean's scream from here. He wants it to stop. He wants them to stop torturing me.
Hinarap ko si Felix at nginisian siya, "Of course, I remember you. The Alpha's pet. The weakling. We were buddies at torturing, right?" Tanong ko kahit nararamdaman ko ang hapdi saaking pisngi at sa tiyan.
