The Princess and Her Knight (WHIPPED SERIES #1) (Completed)

Chapter 9

Make Me

Hindi ko na napansin ang sumunod na nangyari dahil lahat ng naririnig ko ay putok ng baril. It was everywhere and the sanity in me left already just before the guns started blazing. My head spinning as my eyes found Dante limping, pushing forward, killing whoever comes before him. His moves were impossible but he managed to attack without getting hit by a bullet.

Hindi ko maintindihan ang sumunod na nangyari dahil nakita ko na lamang ang sunod-sunod na pagkatumba ng kalaban. Ngunit nagulat ako nang may bumukas sa pinto sa gilid ko.

What the actual.. Damn it!

Mabilis kong itinutok ang baril sa lalaking nagtangkang buksan ang pinto ng kotse saka ito pinutok bago pa man din siya makalapit sa'kin. Natumba siya dahil sa tama na natamo, causing the blood to splatter on my face.

Did I just shoot him?

Tiningnan ko ang labas bago napagpasyahang i-check ang kaniyang pulso. Thank God I didn't kill him. Natamaan ko siya sa kaniyang braso ngunit hindi naman iyon malubha or maybe.. my thoughts were cut off when the man on the floor suddenly opened his eyes. Nanlaki ang mata ko at naramdaman ang paghila niya sa'kin pababa. Pinaibabawan niya ako saka tinutok ang baril sa ulo ko. I was paralyzed, that moment in your life when you realize that you're gonna die. Oh, God. This is not how I imagined to die.

"Papatayin kita." He said and I saw how his eyes darkens, underneath the mask was a man. Maybe even once a good man.

"Not before I kill you," tiningnan ko ang nagsalita at nakita ang itim nitong sapatos. When I eyed his face, I saw the cold menacing look Cain had in his eyes.

Napasigaw ako nang matumba siya mismo sa katawan ko. Blood was all over me and I could feel my body being pulled away from that man. Naramdaman ko ang malamig na bagay na dumampi sa aking pisngi, tila ba ginigising ako.

"Putang'na, Cain! Why did you shoot him in front of her?!"

"Tang'na rin Dante! Alangan naman hayaan ko siya na iputok ang baril sa ulo ng Alfonso na 'yan! He could've blown her brain out of her skull!"

My mind couldn't process the whole thing and before I could even see those dark intimidating eyes, I was succumbed into a deep slumber.

"That's it, I'm taking her with me!"

I awoke with the loud voices inside the room. Hindi ko maigalaw ang talukap ng aking mga mata kaya naman nakinig na lamang ako.

"Nilalagay mo sa panganib ang buhay niya, Mikhail."

Mikhail? Si kuya? Andito si kuya?

Narinig ko ang pagkalabog ng bagay bago narinig ang galit na boses ng kapatid. "The issue here is that they already know!"

"I can protect her, Mikhail. Hindi ako pagbibilinan ng ama ko kung hindi ko naman kaya."

Wait, is he arguing with Dante?

I groaned in annoyance and forced myself to open my eyes. Hindi pamilyar sa akin ang kwarto, makaluma ang estilo nito at hindi pangkaraniwan ang mga naka display.

"Catalina."

I looked at my brother who was making his way toward the bed.
