Black Wings: Raven Heart (Book 3)

Chapter 63

"Jacky"

He just stood

Why is it always like this?

Nathan arrived after following my brother and found Jace and I.

"Jacky? Jackilyn! I've been so worried!"sabi ni Nathan na yayakapin na sana ako pero hinarangan sya ni kuya, they're still flying by the way.

Umupo sya sa tabi ko at agad akong niyakap ng mahigpit.

"I don't want to lose you ever again my dear littler sister."sabi nya sa akin.

I hugged him back and said nothing.

And finally at tumayo na si Jace, he looked at us like nothing happened.

"Jace."sabi ni kuya in a cold hard voice.

"I didn't like what you did while you were in disguise, pero.... T-thank you for saving my sister."sabi ni kuya kay Jace.

"I'd do anything and everything for her."sagot naman ni Jace.

Nabigla ako sa sagot nya. Why is always like that? I can feel my face heat up and I saw him him smile nung nagka eye tk eye kami.

"But that doesn't mean you can have her."sabi ni kuya.

"That's not for you to decide your highness."sabi ni Jace while smirking.

"Teka nga lang, you knew?!"

"Of course I knew! That was really sloppy. It's so cute though. Magaling din ba akong umarte? I was really holding my self back from hugging you. I'm so happy that you're alive and well."kuya said with teary eyes. He looked so happy. Then he hugged me again.

I kinda find this annoying. So yung pagpapanggap namin, nauwi lang sa wala.

I shouldn't have trusted Nathan with this.

He finally let go of me. And asked,"what are you doing here?"

"Manganganak na yung asawa mo. Speaking about your wife, why are you still here?"

His face darkened after hearing the reason.

"Alam mong hindi ko yun anak 'di ba?"

"I know, will you let the real father have the child?"

"Kilala mo kung sino?"

"Yes. He was the one who let us go."

Napaisip sya sandali, "okay, let's give him the child."

"Teka lang! Apo ko yang pinag uusapan nyo!"sabat ni Nathan.

"Aah.. oo nga pala. Hahaha! That sounded weird."kuya

"Kausapin mo na lang si Rust kapag natakas nya na ang anak nya."

"So that guy named Rust is the father."Nathan

"Heads up, He's a slave."

"It doesn't matter. To me at least, I'm half human pero tinanggap pa rin naman ako as a crown prince."Nathan

"Anong gagawin mo pagkatapos?"kuya

"Really kuya? You're asking me that? Sa tingin mo, ano ba dapat nating gawin?"

"Wala naman kasi akong proof-"

Natigil si kuya nung nakita nyang the part of my chest where my heart is, is glowing.

I placed my hand on that glowing part at lumabas yung dulo ng hawakan ng scythe ko. Nung nailabas ko na ang scythe ko, a raven also came out.

"Kung proof ang kailangan mo, I recorded everything."

This Raven, I just call her Raven. She's the one who's been talking inside my head before.

At that moment, naging parang projector si Raven, may lumabas na ilaw sa mga mata nito and images started to flow out.

The three of them looked at me in a weird way.

"What? Do you really think I'm not prepared?"

"Hindi naman, it's just.... It's weird."sabi ni Nathan.

Weird? We're living in a strange world, he's a faerie crowned prince and the three of us are death angels, we have some crazy powers, and this looks weird?

Can't help but roll my eyes on him.

"Habang kaming lahat ay nasa isang item or jewelry form ang mga alaga namin, yours just came out from your body!!"panic mode na naman si kuya.

Tumango lang ako na para bang normal lang 'to.

He just sighed. "As much as I want to help you, I might just get in your way. Kaya naman, kung kailangan mo ng tulong, just say the word."

Tumango ulit ako in response, then mag naisip ako,"Kuya, can you tell mom and dad that I'm okay? And if you can, please explain everything to them.. and Also, paki sabi kay tito Note-"

"Okay, I'll talk to them. Don't worry about tito Note. Alam nya na ang posibleng mangyare. He just couldn't do anything."

Alam kong si tito ang pinaka masasaktan dito dahil sa ginagawa ng anak nya. I just hope he doesn't blame himself.

Umalis na sina kuya at Nathan, then we saw rust when a window opened. It must be Margeret's room.

Ano kaya ang totoong itsura nya? Can he still remember what he looked like? I knew it was him kahit iba na naman ang itsura nya ngayon. He have this look in his eyes that's so different from everyone else.

~~•○•¤•○•~~

Rust opened the window of his master's room. Nakahiga na lamang si Margaret sa higaan nya, just waiting for the child to be born.

At that moment, he saw his master's husband and uncle flying from a tree.

They must be there. He thought.

"Rust, rust."his master called him.

Lumapit sya sa higaan kung nasaan si Margaret.

"Ikaw na lang ang meron ako. You love me right? Let's kill them all after this child is born. Don't leave me okay? Or I'll kill you too along with this child."

She's going crazier each day. Wala syang ibang magawa kundi tumango.

She have this obsessive look in her eyes that he doesn't know where it came from.

The moment she bought him and brought him anywhere she goes, nakikita nya naman ang care and love from her family for her that he never had. Even after a long time, he still doesn't understand her at all.

He would follow her every order, giving himself to her, even harming or killing people, but the moment he knew that she's having their child, that he would become a father, he changed.

He wanted to change.

Ayaw nyang maranasan ng anak nya ang hirap na dinanas nya. He wanted to give their child a peaceful life.

"Go to sleep master, you need to rest as much as you can."

After hearing him say that, Margaret slowly closed her eyes.

I'm sorry master, but I'll do anything for my child to have a peaceful life. He thought while looking at his sleeping master.
