CHAPTER 49

NEILAH

"Good job, Princess." Aniya ng instructor ko at tuwang - tuwa na tumango saakin. I nodded back while lowering my fists.

We're currently training right now. Ilang araw pa lamang ang lumilipas na nandito ako sa palasyo ay pinag - train agad ako ng Hari at Reyna. They said that this is necessary, since there is an ongoing war at alam nila na marami ang hindi susunod sa kanya.

Marami naman daw ang titigil to follow the orders of the Heiress of the crown, ngunit marami din daw ang hindi. That's why kailangan ko daw'ng mag - ensayo just in case na magkaroon ng madugong labanan sa palasyo.

I hate how they taught me just the basics of self defense. I spent years training in the Underground to fight in the first Gemesis War. Ngunit doon ko lamang din natandaan na ayaw na ayaw ni Misty na mag - ensayo dati, kaya't wala syang kaalam - alam sa mga self defense.

Pilit kong hindi pinapakita sa kanila ang galing ko sa pakikipaglaban. I lower my guards everytime at hinihinaan ko din ang mga suntok ko, ngunit mukhang napapansin ni King Alec ang mga ginagawa ko.

Good thing at hindi nya ito pinupuna.

Ngunit habang tumatagal ay kapansin - pansin na nahahalata na din ito ni Queen Khaleesi.

Damn these two for being too observant for their own good.

After the training and after my trainor's assessment to me ay dahan - dahang lumapit saakin ang mag - asawa, graceful and fluid as ever.

Khaleesi smiled at me warmly. "Are you hungry, darling?" She asks at pinunasan ang pawis ko sa noo.

I tried to smile brightly. "Yes, mom! Can I eat steak? Please? Pretty please?" I remember kung paano ito palaging ginagawa ni Misty dati kina Khaleesi and Alec. Ugh. Me doing this is so cringe I may vomit right here and right now.

Tumawa ng mahina si Khaleesi. "Sure, dear. So hanggang ngayon ay gustong - gusto mo pa din ng steak huh? It's a shame na lagi itong inuubos ng kapatid mo dati. You should eat more of that, sweetheart."

I almost deflated a bit. Almost.

King Alec sigh. "Don't make her fat."

"I don't! I'm just saying." Hinawakan nito ng marahan ang braso ko at tiningnan iyon. "You're a little bit skinny. Are you eating three times a day when you're in Fiona's house?"

Kamuntikan ko ng irolyo ang mga mata ko dahil sa tanong nya.

I nodded. "Yes po. I didn't just eat too much." Sambit ko.

"That's bad, dear. Come. I'm gonna give you any steaks that you want." Wika nya. "Your sister is not here anymore so we can give you anything that you wanted without any disturbance."
