(POV Eliana)


Tahimik kaming naglalakad ni Tristan sa likuran na bahagi ng ancestral house. Kahit may snow, di ko maramdaman ang lamig dahil sa winter coat at gloves na suot ko.


"Tristan, I'm worried about Gwen. Ano ba talaga ang nangyari sa pinsan ni Lance?"

"They are stuck in their werewolf form for days now and they were found dead early this morning. Their whole body and all their internal organs were frozen in molecular level in an absolute zero temperature. There's no way they will be able to regenerate."

"Sila din ba yung nakita ko noon? Yung tatlong blonde?"

"Yes, the triplets. No one knew how they really died. Akala ng mga Harrington, they are back to their normal form but when they were found in their cells, they are already lifeless."

"Nakakatakot naman. Tama si Meshach, baka yung demon goddess ang may gawa nun."

"I'm afraid that she's already alive. She hates our clan. She sees us a hindrance to her evil plans. She threatened to end us all."


Di ko na masyado naririnig si Tristan dahil biglang sumakit ang ulo ko na parang pinupukpok ng paulit ulit. My body started to feel hot and cold at the same time. Napaluhod ako sa snow ng di ko namamalayan.


"Eliana? Eliana? Are you okay?"

"Tristan, I think there's something wrong with me---"

"Eliana, your eyes are turning white."


Within seconds, I can feel that my whole body is on fire, but at the same time, para akong nakalubog sa gitna ng frozen sea. My hands suddenly turned into paws. I know exactly what's happening. I'm turning into werewolf again.

Tristan is stunned to see me transformed before his eyes. I can see that he is surprised to see me in this form.


"Eliana, can you hear me?" sabi niya habang unti unting lumalapit sa akin. I am already in my werewolf form and all of my senses are now sensitive and alive.

Tristan, no! Don't come closer.

"It's fine, just relax. I will help you okay? Try to relax. Breathe in, breathe out."

No! Stay where you are!


Nararamdaman ko na lumalabas ang pangil ko. I know that Tristan is in front of me, but I'm suddenly filled with anger and fury. I want to tear him apart. I want to kill him.


"Eliana, I will help you. Normal lang na maguluhan ka sa mga una mong transformation."

Tristan, I don't think this is normal. All I want is to kill you right now! So please stay away from me.


His eyes widened with what I said. Tama nga ang hinala ko. Hindi normal ang aggressive behavior ko. Will I be like Gwen? Will I die just like the triplets?


Slowly, napalibutan ako ng kakaibang galit. Galit na hindi ko alam kung saan nagmula. All I want is to kill this man in front of me. It is as if I am possessed by too much hatred. Within seconds, I attacked Tristan and bit his shoulders. I can taste his blood on my mouth.


"Eliana, you have to control yourself," mahinang sabi ni Tristan.


My teeth are still on his shoulders. With all my might, I tried to run away from him bago ko pa siya masaktan. Kahit saan basta malayo sa kanya. I ran senselessly towards the icy forest. I will forever hate myself for hurting him.


Malayo na ang natatakbo ko nang maramdaman ko na naka sunod din si Tristan sa akin. He is on his werewolf form. I can still smell the blood from his wound.


Eliana, please listen to me.

It's useless, Tristan, you have to let me go. All I want is to kill you right now. Napaka liit na lang ng control ko sa katawan ko.

I will help you, just listen to me.


Sinubukan niyang lumalapit na naman sa akin. His presence trigger another killing instict and I ran towards him. Without any hesitations, I bit his neck and lacerared his legs. Para kaming dalawang malaking aso na nag-aaway sa gitna ng gubat. Hindi na namin namalayan na pareho kaming gumulong pababa sa bundok.

We are both hurt, but Tristan received more damage as I bit him several times. Bumagsak kami pareho sa tubig. It's probably a hotspring dahil mainit ang tubig.


"Eliana, empty your mind. No thoughts, just plain void. Try to focus," sabi ni Tristan and he is back to his human form.


He has several bruises and deep lacerations. Nasa kabilang dulo siya ng hot springs at ako naman ay bumagsak sa malayong parte ng hot spring pool. As I am still in my werewolf form, I am talking to him telepathically.


I told you it's useless. I no longer have any control sa sarili ko. Please, Tristan. You have to go. I don't want to hurt you.


"Just do it, Eliana. Close your eyes. Think of nothing else. Remove any traces of images in your mind. I know you can do it. I trust you," he said in a pleading voice.

I'm sorry, Tristan, it's not working.


I can feel my body is slowly walking towards him. Sigurado ako na kakagatin ko na naman si Tristan dahil lumalabas na naman ang pangil ko. I might kill him by decapitation this time.


"I believe in you, Eliana. You can do it," bulong niya sa akin.


I can feel that my whole body is radiating a cold blooded desire to kill him. It's only a matter of time before I attack him. I will hate myself forever if I will hurt this man any longer.


Empty your mind, no thoughts, no images, just plain void.


Tristan's voice keeps vibrating on my head. I ran towards him and my fangs are so much ready to immerse on his skin.


Tristan, please forgive me. I hope you can forgive me...
