Mist and Moonlight

CHAPTER 31: Body And Soul

Her POV

I walk down the basement of this mansion. Humarap sa akin ang isang makapal na pinto.

Just like an excited kid I entered the room. Several ladies are here kept in a cage. Since the room is soundproof hindi sila maririnig ng kung sino man.

That bastard promise to let me choose the body I will use. Ayoko na sa katawang ito. I need a younger one baka sakaling tigilan na ako ng hayop na iyon.

Enie minnie minie mo....

Inisa-isa ko silang tignan. Para akong nagsishopping not for the usual things  but for a body.

An evil grin plastered on my lips.

"I want her."

Turo ko sa babaeng natutulog. Her tear stained face made me want to pity her but that wouldn't work.

She looks meek and fierce.

There is nothing more deceiving than looks isn't it?

Binuhat siya ng isa sa mga tauhang kasama ko. Umiwas ang iba niyang kasama dahil doon.

An altar stands at the end of the hall. The statue of Nyx, the chthonic goddess, looks alive.

Pinababa ko ang kanyang katawan sa lamesang nasa harap nito. She looks young for me but this will work.

He entered the room wearing a dark robe. May dala siyang kupitang may tubig.

"Are you sure about this?"

"Of course."

"I'll miss making you scream and moan." he whispered.

"Keep it to yourself then." I smirk.

Enough of his sexual innuendos.

Pinatakan ko siya ng huling halik sa labi. Bago humiga sa katabing lamesa.
I closed my eyes and let darkness slip in me.

His POV

Nakapikit na ang mga mata niyang nakahimlay sa batong lamesa. Sinimulan kong magdasal.

She hated dirty works so I'll keep it as clean as possible.

I draw a little blood from the beside her. Hinalo ko ito sa tubig habang nagdadasal.

"Vita in morte figurata in sanguine explebant surge a mortuis"

Tinapat ko ang kamay ko sa noo ng niya at nagdasal ulit.

"Vita in morte figurata in sanguine explebant surge a mortuis"

Her spirit will connect with the body she choose and will have full control over it. Gamit ang tubig na may dugo inulit ko ang dasal bago ipainom ang tubig sa katawang napili niya.

"Vita in morte figurata in sanguine explebant surge a mortuis"

Huling bigkas ko ay nagising ang katawang pinili niya.

Nanghihina pa ito kaya ako na mismo ang nagbuhat sa kanya. Hindi ko pahahawakan ang babaeng ito kahit sa mga tauhan ko.

Tomorrow when she wakes up maninibago siya pero alam kong mabilis siyang masasanay sa katawan tulad noong una.

Pinunasan ko ang mga  mukha, braso at binti niya. She doesn't want what I am doing pero magagalit siya kapag mukhang madumi kapag nagising.

I caress her sleeping face.

I look at her new face. Beautiful and too innocent.

Why didn't I realize it at all. I smiled beside her. She must have been pointing finger when she chose this.

I know what runs in her head. She thought of choosing a body as shopping. Napansin ko din na naging excited siya ng sabihin kong papipiliin ko siya ng katawang gusto niya.

I can't believe she chose this one.

Sa sofa na ako matulog baka magreklamo pa siya at paulanan agad ako ng insulto pagdilat ng mga mata niya.

Morning came and I saw her on a full body mirror. Sinisipat ang sarili sa salamin. The clothes I bought is a bit larger for her but that will do.

Lavander and vanilla attack my nose. The scent rubs on my nose.

"Good morning... Beautiful." namamaos kong sabi.

"Morning..." she said in her calm voice.

Gusto ko siyang yakapin pero pagtitig lang sa imahe niya sa salamin ay sapat na.

"What are you looking at?" nakataas ang kilay nito.

"Admiring you. I never thought you'd choose such young one."

"Of course. I want her the first time I laid my eyes on her."

Lumapit ako para hawakan siya sa balikat. She let me do it pero hanggang doon lang.

She bit her lip to tempt me but I will not fall. She is a seductress. A professional one. She smirked when I did not move.

"Good boy..." patting my head.

She's playing with me but I can't do anything about it.

You'll give in to me. Soon.

I smirked at my thoughts.

Bumaba ako sa kusina. Half naked with my tousled morning hair. Her eyes glint but she controlled her thoughts.

Hindi ko napigilang yakapin siya.

"Stop that bago ka mapagkamalang pedophile ng mga tauhan mo."

I inhale the scent of her hair. I promised myself not to do more than this.

"I have a proposal for you."
