➳ Epilogue II

SMUT CONTENT

"Do you think you already know the ins and outs of the mob?"

Huminga ako nang malalim at sinalubong ang mapanghamong mga mata ni Maddox. Greg looked bored, and I know that this meeting is just a waste of time for him.

Pinatos niya lamang ang pagpupulong na ito because his presence and verdict is very much needed. The Machiavellian Movement is about to lose one vital member, the Demacian leader to be specific.

And his name is Tripp Winston Rae France.

"I want peace," I stated calmly, my eyes meeting every member of the committee's gaze. "I want to experience a normal life," I declared firmly.

Hawk laughed, looking offended. The King shook his head, a small smile tugging at the corner of his lips. My brothers seemed in a deep thought.

Lihim akong napangisi. Ganyan nga. Pag-isipan niyong mabuti ang set-up na kahaharapin niyo bilang kasapi ng samahang ito. And my decision is final.

It's Mims over the brotherhood.

I value the organization. Malaki rin ang utang na loob ko sa kanila—sa mga miyembro ng Machiavellian. What we've shared is more than friendship.

But things will have to end now.

Matiim akong tinitigan ng aking kapatid. "You know the pact," matamang saad ni Greg. The calculating look on his face showed me how merciless the Machiavellian could be, to the quitters.

Ang paglisan ay maituturing na isang pagtataksil. Tinalikuran mo ang isang bagay na isinumpa mo na iyong paninindigan hanggang huli.

But I've made my decision, and my decision is Mims, clearly.

A life with her is so much better than anything the guild could offer. Hindi ako pwedeng magkamali sa bagay na ito. At imposibleng magkamali pa ako kay Mims.

She's the one.

Humugot ako ng isang malalim na buntong-hininga. Everyone in the room had their eyes on me, waiting for my ultimate resolution.

Napailing ako. These men have no idea how much control and power Mims has over me. I'm choosing my woman, no matter what.

I don't need further questioning. It wasn't like it would change anything, anyway. Buo na ang loob ko. Wala nang atrasan pa.

Right now, my relationship with Mims and our future together is more important than anything else. It's about time to settle down finally. It's about time to fight things for love.

My love.

"I relieve my Demacia leadership," I announced, my tone lacing with finality. I've earned several gasps and sighs from them. I felt a pang of betrayal from my part.

I knew they expected better from me. But I can't lose this one, a specific battle kung saan nakasalalay ang kinabukasan ko at ng aking minamahal.

Isa na lamang ang tanging maihihiling ko. I hope they would understand.

I can't fucking lose Mims, and being part of the Movement has its perks and curses. I can't risk it. Matayog na ang aking naipundar para kay Mims.

I hope they would understand.

Greg looked disappointed, but not shocked. He knew it coming. Hell, he even threatened my girl. I wouldn't forgive him for that particular matter. Ayaw ko sa lahat ay ang pinakikialaman ang akin.
