Coz I can't make you love me

If you don't

You can't make your heart feel

Something that it won't


Trione's POV


Pagkababa ng sasakyan ay agad kong sinuri ang paligid para sa ano mang banta habang tinungo na ni Harper ang hall. Hindi ko maiwasang mag alala dahil sa naging desisyon ng boss. May mga bagay rin akong hindi maintindihan katulad ng naging utos niya sa akin. I can't find any reason why she asked me to burn down Pentagon, followed by Ganaea. At ang alam ko ay pati ang Olympus ay wala na rin. I can't ask her. She's the boss, she gets to decide about things. Another thing, attending this party. It should be Nirvana who is supposed to attend for she is the representative of the Sullivano Empire. But, the boss was insisting to represent her sister. At hindi ko rin maintindihan ang panganay na Sullivano kung bakit hinayaan niya lang ang kanyang kapatid.


No one from Octagon attends this party. This is hosted by the government and it only means that you are to mingle with your enemies. Delikado ang naging desisyon ng boss ngunit hindi ko kayang kontrolin ang magiging desisyon niya.


"Everything clear?" I asked Harper who was already inside the the hall. I heard her affirmative answer before opening the backseat door, letting the boss out. I stared at her. If only she's not my brother's property, I would literally drool over her right now. And if only my brother could see her, I don't know how he would react. Would he cover her up with his leather coat or would he rather enjoy the view? I don't know. Raijin. You should see this wherever you are.


I stretched out my elbow to her and she linked her arm, smiling at me.


"My snake minion. Where is she?" She asked to the other line connected. For safety measures, I required her wear a wireless communication device. Bukas ang linya sa aming tatlo at kung may panganib man ay mas madali ang pamamaraan ng komunikasyon.


"She's not yet here, Lady Curran. I can't smell any fcking snake here yet." Sagot ni Harper. Tumango ang boss at diretso na naming tinahak ang hall. Pagkapasok pa lamang ng establisyemento ay sinalubong na agad kami ng mga tingin. Maraming mga negosyante ang naririto at lahat sila ay halos mga kilalang tao. I can see how curious they are about the lady beside me. Ngunit ang ipinagtataka ko ay ang mga pinuno ng natitirang pamilya ng Octagon. Bakit sila nandito?


"Eleven o'clock." I heard Harper. Sabay naming tiningnan ang direksyon na iyon at nakita si Harper na kumakaway. Tss. I thought it was someone else. Ngumiti lang sa kanya ang boss bago napagdesisyunang lapitan ang mga pinuno.


"I am surprised to see you here." malamig nitong pahayag. Tiningnan lamang siya ng mga pinuno bago ngumisi ang ginoong Emett.


"Well, we feel like we are needed here. Since you also attended, we are obliged to do so."


Something's not right. Kahit na pumunta rito ang boss ay alam kong hindi sila magpapadalos dalos na pumunta rito. This is a dangerous place for us.
