The Prince Who Bit The Poisonous Apple (Prince Series #3)

Chapter 54

Chapter 54

Rescue

My brother's footsteps haltered. My embrace tightened against him as the cold wind blew, and my white veil danced with my mudded wedding dress.

Silence overwhelmed us, it sent chills all over my body.

I prayed silently, hoping that my brother would get what I really wanted. We need to leave as soon as possible! I don't want to hear anything from him.

"Let's go... please..."

I heard him sigh, and he continued to walk. We reached the car. Lonzo's behind the wheels, Kaden sat beside him and my brother joined me at the back.

We drove home silently.

I had expected a scandalous welcome by the time that we finally arrived, but another silence hung our mansion. No presence of any family clamped with allegations, no questions or even faces of disappointment.

I sighed.

Should I be thankful for this? Namulat ako sa pamilyang ito na kaunting problema lang ay alam na ng buong lahi, and a scandalous wedding event without any wakeup call or a damn alarm was new to me.

Binuhat ko na ang mabigat kong gown. I hurried my steps to upstairs until I heard my brother's weak voice.

"I'm sorry... for being the evil queen..." I smiled bitterly.

I almost forgot; it was all started with an evil queen and her vicious plan to get snow white's heart.

Kung hindi niya ako sinulsulang lapitan si Wayto noon, mangyayari ba ang lahat ng ito? Would I see myself running away from my own wedding? Would I see myself looking terrible with my beautiful white gown?

Kung hindi ko nakilala si Wayto, kung hindi ko pinili ang istorya na may mansanas na nakalalason, masasaktan ba ako ng ganito? Makikita ko ba ang sarili ko sa mabigat na sitwasyong katulad nito?

Would I see myself in front of the mirror with eyes full of rage and vengeance?

I used to love the story of Snow White. The Prince's lips would heal everything, a kiss that would end the pain, bring happiness and wedding bells.

Pero nang sandaling magdaop ang mga labi namin ni Wayto matapos ang tatlong taon, I didn't feel the happiness, a cure from pain or even heard a lovely music of wedding bells.

This was when I realized that I was not the princess of the story. I was the huntsman...but I fell in love. Instead of killing him, we both ran and wandered deep in the forest. Until I finally noticed that I was the only one running.

He stopped and didn't fight with me, until I numbly realized that I was lost alone in the forest, without any source of light, no moon or fire to guide my track, just the plain darkness.

A very good fairy tale indeed!

"I failed as the huntsman, this maybe the consequence." I said.

Nagpatuloy na ako sa aking kwarto at hinayaan ang sariling malunod sa malambot na kama kasama ang aking mga luha.

Tapos na...

After the scandalous wedding, hindi na ako nagulat na halos usap-usapan na ito. Hindi lang sa minsang pakikinig ko sa usapan ng mga katulong at sa iba't-ibang tauhan ng mga Olbes, maging sa social media.

Kung anong masasamang salita ang ibinato sa akin ng mga tao noon nang idiin ako sa kasalanang hindi ko ginawa, ganito rin ang pagpapahiyang nararanasan ni Wayto at ng buong pamilya niya.
