The Immortal Blood [Taglish Version]

CHAPTER 91 - SPACE TIME

Jade Cardwell

NAALALA ko na naman ang mga modelo na kasama ni Raphael sa Hawaii. I wonder how many nights he spent with them while erasing my memories in his mind.

"Hey, love. May ginawa ba ko na hindi mo nagustuhan?" tanong ni Raphael na biglang lumapit sa akin habang nagbibihis ako ng damit.

"Alam ko na may girlets ka sa Hawaii. I saw it with my own eyes!" inis na sagot ko sa kanya

Gusto ko siya kurutin at suntukin at the same time. Para akong ibang version ng Jade Cardwell. Aggressive and sensitive as fuck. Siguro dahil sa hormones na dala ng pagbubuntis.

"I will not justify that, love. I was at fault. Please forgive me," he said as he tried to hug me.

"Huwag na natin pag-usapan, past na 'yon. Ang tanong ko lang, paano ka nakapasok dito? Amadeus is keeping me away from you as the Endorian Witches can track you."

"Hindi ko din alam kung bakit ako nandito. Ang huli ko pagkaalala ay natutulog ako sa loob ng kwarto ng icebreaker ship na binili ni Eleazar. We are roaming in the Arctic Circle for days now."

"Raphael, kailangan ko kausapin si Amadeus tungkol dito. Napagdesisyunan ko na lumayo pansamantala dahil gusto ko na protektahan ang bata sa sinapupunan ko. Even Amadeus admitted that the Endorian Witches are too powerful. Alam ko din na kapag nalaman mo na buhay ako, hahanapin mo ko kahit anong mangyari."

"Dahil alam mo na mahal kita?"

"Dahil alam ko na matigas ang ulo mo! Wait, did you just say that you love me?"

Raphael cupped my face again and owned my lips. A tender kiss while gently nibbling my lower lip. He enclosed me again inside his arms and I am drowning again in his kisses in no time.

"I love you, Jade Cardwell. Maybe I was remarkably stupid as I did not realize it before. I was shattered when I left you and I was also broken when I broke you. I know that I have hurt you and I was equally hurt for not being with you during that time," Raphael said as he cupped my face.

Gusto ko sana matuwa sa mga sinasabi ni Raphael, pero tila unti unti siyang naglalaho.

"Raphael, anong nangyayari? Bakit ka unti unti kang nawawala? Tignan mo ang kamay mo, parang transparent na," nag-aalala ko na tanong sabay hawak din sa mukha niya.

Hindi na naka-sagot pa si Raphael dahil tuluyan na siyang naglaho na parang isang aparisyon. Parang bigla akong nanghina at napaupo sa carpet. Sigurado ko na hindi gawa ng imahinasyon ko si Raphael. Alam ko na nandito siya kanina. Alam ko na magkasama kaming dalawa.

Mabilis akong nagbihis at pinuntahan si Amadeus sa kanyang silid. Kahit gabi na, nagbabasa pa rin ito ng makapal na libro.

"Amadeus! Nakita ko si Raphael sa kwarto ko!" sabi ko sa kanya pagpasok ko sa loob ng silid niya.

"You saw him inside your room? Like a ghost?" nagtataka na tanong niya sa akin at ibinaba ang libro na hawak niya.

"No, he has a physical body. Nahawakan ko siya, nakausap ko siya. He was inside my room at hindi niya din alam kung paano siya nakapasok dito."

"That is not possible. The ship will nullify all traces of Vasi. Raphael Lancaster is still the Vessel of the Immortal Blood. I will surely know if he is inside my ship. Are you sure you are not sleepwalking? Baka nananaginip ka lang?"

"Amadeus, I know what I saw. Naramdaman ko si Raphael na nasa kwarto ko. Para siyang nag-teleport. Mga ilang minuto na rin kami nag-uusap at---"

Bigla akong tumigil dahil ayoko na i-detalye pa kay Amadeus kung ano ang ginawa namin ni Raphael sa loob ng maikling minuto. Ngumiti lang sa akin si Amadeus at lumapit sa akin. My all-red face is a big clue kung ano ang naganap sa kwarto ko. I can still feel my warm cheeks habang iniisip ko ang ginawa namin ni Raphael.

"I don't have any explanations for what happened. He is the Vessel and maybe you are his Other Half, you are meant to be together. Your unborn child is possibly the culprit," sabi ni Amadeus at biglang hinaplos ang aking tiyan.

"Culprit? Ang anak ko ang nagdala kay Raphael dito?"

"That is the only plausible explanation. The unborn Vessel wants his parents to be together. This means that your son is an extraordinary Vessel, far more powerful than his father or his ancestors. Dapat magkasama kayo ni Raphael habang buntis ka, but I took you away from him. And now this young man is bending space and time for his parents to be together."

"Hindi ba ito nangyari sa mga naunang Vessels?"

"Vessels are just vessels. They exist to keep the Immortal Blood alive. They may be powered by Vasi, but they are just humans with long lives, temporary immortals until the next Vessel arrives. Your son is quite baffling. He may be the reason as to why Aurorah wants me to protect you."

"Any idea kung anong meron sa anak ko?"

"Your son is probably here to destroy the rebelled guardians like us or to protect us from these nefarious Endorian Witches. Either way, his arrival in this world will be a blessing."

Tumango lang ako at tumalikod ako kay Amadeus. Nararamdaman ko kay Amadeus ang sincerity sa sinasabi niya. Mukhang payag siyang mamatay kung ang next Vessel ng Immortal Blood ang kukuha sa kanyang buhay.

"Jade..." tawag niya sa akin ng marating ko ang pinto.

"Amadeus?"

"Just so you know, I have waited for you for thousands of years. I don't mind waiting for a few hundred years more," sagot ni Amadeus na kinuha muli ang libro lamesa para magbasa.

It is written in the Bible that love is patient and love is indeed kind, but what Amadeus is doing right now is simply more than love.

Is it really possible for an evil being like a Shadow Spirit to fall in love?
