Chapter 40: Weak

"I'm sorry."

Agad nanghina ang tuhod ko matapos marinig ang sagot niya. He was sorry...

He was apologizing because our brother...our little brother is already dead.

What else would I hear? I practically knew it. I already knew it because of Don Castelveltrano.

If it weren't for him then I might have been clueless up till now.

"I'm fine. Umuwi na tayo, Misty. Gusto ko ng magpahinga."

After a couple of minutes spent in travel we finally made it back to the demon's lair, the Castelveltrano Castle.

As usual tahimik nanaman ang paligid pero parang may kakaiba ngayon. Masyadong tahimik. Too quiet even for this place.

"Misty..." I gave her a knowing look and she nodded in return.

"Don't worry, akong bahala sayo my lady." Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko at hinila ako patakbo kasabay nito ang until unting pagsibol ng ingay.

Yabag. Maraming yabag ng paa ang naririnig ko. Hanggang sa sunod sunod na putok ng baril ang sumunod.

"Damn." Misty was shot. Well not really dahil nadaplisan lang pero panay ang tulo ng dugo mula sa balikat niya dahil doon.

"You okay?"

"I'm fine. Huwag kang magalala sakin my lady. Andito na tayo."

"Huh? Anong ginagawa natin dito sa tower?"

Sa katatakbo namin ni hindi ko napansin na dito pala kami papunta.

"Pasensya na my lady pero kailangan ko itong gawin."

Those were the last words I heard from her.  The last words because my vision started to blur until I finally felt passing out.

Nagising akong nakakadena ang isang braso sa poste ng kama. Makabangon man ako ay tanging pagupo lang ang magagawa ko dahil Hindi ako makakatayo.

I scanned the unfamiliar place. It looked like a girl's bedroom considering the things like vanity mirror and the frills all around.

"I see you are awake now." The voice came from a man sitting on the table. He didn't look that old but I am sure that he's not young either.

"Who are you?" And why the hell am I chained to this damn bed?"

"Don't I look like one of my sons? One of them should look a lot like me. I mean my daughter goes after her mother's looks so.."

Now that I look like him he's right. He actually looks a lot like the Playboy Pierce. More like an older version. Then that means he's their...

"Don Castelveltrano." ...their father. The former boss of the mafiosos in this castle.

"Finally! Congratulations on recognizing me hija." He seemed so jolly. Looking at him Hindi mo aakalaing isa siyang boss dati ng mafia.
