Third Person's P.O.V
"I've been waiting here for you," Vreihya stated sarcastically as she looked at her reflection in the cold crystal water where her flawless feet are submerged. She felt the familiar presence na naramdaman niya kanina bago siya mawalan ng malay at batid niyang hindi na siya konektado kay Mino and this is making her furious.
"Wala ka na lang talagang papel sa buhay ko kundi ang manggulo!" madiin niyang saad sabay tapon ng isang walang emosyong titig sa babaeng batid niyang dahilan kung bakit nalalaman ni Zakarias na kasama siya ni Mino sa kaniyang diwa.
"You helped him to see through me as you are the only one who can connect to consciousness you sneaky little bitch!" she said bitterly habang pinipigilan ang sarili na tuluyang magwala.
"Aww! I miss you too," nakangiting saad ni Circa habang pinagmamasdan ang prinsesa nakatapak sa mababaw na tubig. Maging ang kaniyang mga paa ay nakababad din ngunit nagsisimulang magliwanag ang tubig na unti-unting kumakalat.
"Ginising mo si Silvia! Tinitiyak kong ikaw din ang nasa likod ng pagkasira ng aking kaharian maging kung bakit naging ganoon si tiyo!" Vreihya grumbled as she felt a sharp pain on her chest at tila maging ang mga ugat niya sa kaniyang katawan ay nagsisimulang pumintig.
"Asan si Ina! Asan si Kypper! Ilabas mo ako dito!"
"I'm afraid you can't! Wala kang sariling katawan hindi ba?" Circa teased na parang sanay na sanay na siya na laging ganito ang daloy ng kanilang usapan.
"By the way Vreihya, we are just starting the game!" she said as she checked her long nails na parang hindi niya ramdam ang nagsusumigaw na galit ng prinsesa.
"You're about to lose him too," she whispered as a sly smile crept on her lips. Hindi na nakapagpigil pa si Vreihya at mabilis niyang ginamit ang kaniyang bilis upang umatake ngunit nagulat siya nang salubungin ni Circa ang kaniyang katawan tsaka niya naramdaman ang mahigpit na pagkakahawak sa kaniyang leeg.
"You never deserved to be the chosen one princess! Huwag kang magpanggap na parang hindi mo dinungisan ang iyong mga kamay! Hindi nararapat ang marumi mong dugo sa papalit sa Dyosa!" Circa mocked as she tighten her gripped on Vreihya's neck.
Kahit pa nahihirapan sa paghinga ay nagawa pa ding ngumisi ng prinsesa nang buong angas. "And you think you are the one deserving for that? Baka mamana pa ng iyong magiging supling ang pagiging inggetera mo! Go find a fucking world where you have a significant role to play hindi 'yung nang-aagaw ka ng titulong kahit kailan ay hindi babagay sa'yo!" she mocked fiercely.
Hinanda niya ang kaniyang sarili sa mas malalang pag-atake ni Circa ngunit nagulat siya nang mabilis siyang bitawan nito tsaka umalingawngaw ang sarkastiko nitong pagtawa sa buong paligid.
Mabilis na ginamit ng diwata ang kaniyang bilis upang lumayo kay Vreihya habang patuloy ito sa pagtawa na tila nakarinig ng isang nakakatawang biro.
"Playing the villain is not really my thing! Nangangati na talaga ang katawan ko!" tila nandidiri niyang saad sabay pinagpagan niya ang kaniyang katawan na tila ba may kung anong nakakairitang nakakapit dito.
"Are you really messing with me!?" mabagal ngunit madiin na turan ni Vreihya dahil sa tila pinaglalaruan siya ng diwata gaya na lamang ng lagi niyang ginagawa. "Everyone is messing with you Vreihya! Wala ka ba talagang pakiramdam?" walang ganang saad ng diwata na naging sanhi kung bakit kumunot ang noo ng prinsesa.
"Even your family is keeping secrets from you even before you were born! Do you think everything about you is perfect? Your kingdom? Your family? Your past? Mino?" the deity stated in a casual way na parang hindi nakakasira ng pag-iisip ang kaniyang mga sinasabi.
"Do you think I will believe someone like you?" mapait lamang na turan ng prinsesa kahit pa ramdam niya na tila tumatagos ang mga sinasabi ng diwata.
"You met her already don't you? You felt her already?" Circa asked with her plain voice and Vreihya clench her jaw as she knew that she can't lie.
"Vreihya, darating ang araw na ililigtas mo ako Iha."
Alodia's voice echoed on her head once again ngunit hindi niya nais na ipahalata na nakakaramdam siya ng pagkabagabag lalo na sa harapan ng diwatang batid niyang naghihintay ng pagkakataon.
"Mino's original bride is lovely isn't she? What does it feel knowing that there is someone better than you? Better memories with the man you love?"
"Ano ba talagang balak mo? This is so unusual of you, mas lalo kang nagiging madaldal," Vreihya cut her off at mabilis na tumaas ang kilay ng diwata na tila hindi inaasahan ang pagsagot sa kaniya ni Vreihya nang pabalang.
"Just do what you want to do! Cut off the chit chat as your voice is making me lose my shit!" Vreihya said mockingly kahit pa ramdam niya na kahit saang tignan na anggulo ay dehado siya. She knew to herself that she can't do anything to fight this situation that's why she wanted the deity to have a taste of her attitude.
"By the way Circa, who's the unfortunate man that had brushed his sinful lips on your neck?" Vreihya teased and a grin flustered on her lips as she saw the kiss mark on the deity's pearl white neck.
Mabilis na nanlaki ang mata ng diwata at natatarantang tinakpan ng kaniyang kaliwang kamay ang markang nasa kaniyang leeg.
Mabilis na pumintig ang kaniyang dibdib nang mabilis na rumehistro sa kaniyang isip ang matipunong prinsipeng naglapat ng mapanuksong halik sa kaniyang leeg. Her knees started to tremble and she can't help but stop breathing as she begun to hear her heart beats so fast.
"That freaking prince!" she stated on her mind at mabilis na inayos ang kaniyang sarili upang ipakita na tila hindi siya apektado. Mabilis niyang inayos ang tindig tsaka ibinalik ang kaswal niyang postura.
Marahang napailing si Vreihya habang hindi niya maiwasan na mapangisi. She begun to casually open her arms widely and let her self fall to the frigid water. As she felt her back colliding with the shallow water and how her body begun to get completely wet, she slowly closed her eyes at mabilis niyang naramdaman ang paggalaw ng tubig sa kaniyang tabi.
She felt the deity's presence beside her and how intense her purple eyes are gazing onto her. She already know the drill at wala na siyang magagawa kundi ihanda ang kaniyang sarili. She just hope na kaya pa ng puso niya lahat ng sakit na meron siya ngayon.
"Do you think that he really love you that much?" Circa asked plainly ngunit bakas sa kaniyang mga mata ang kalungkutan habang nakatitig sa katawan ng prinsesa. She can't help but to look up to stop the tears that are starting to dwell on her eyes.
She will miss this version of Vreihya as she knew that what she will do will change everything even her but it is needed so she can fulfill her duty despite the fact that she is not the deity of the sanctuary anymore.
"I did my part of loving and trusting him despite all odds, all possibilities and all the danger! It is not my fault if he doesn't love me that deep as I know for myself that my heart solely belongs to him. It's his part to do the same thing to me as well without me begging for it for I know my worth and what I deserved," Vreihya answered as she stopped her voice from cracking dahil hindi niya maaalis ang sakit kung sakaling may gagawin si Mino na dudurog sa kaniya nang husto.
Circa smiled genuinely as she can't help but admire the feisty princess for she find it laudable how she knew her worth and how she should be treated.
As she stared at Vreihya's soaked body, a tear successfully trailed down to her cheek and it dropped to the crystal clear shallow water. The place is silent enough that the moment her tears collided in the water, it made a sound echoing all trough out the place and Vreihya's body was completely engulf by the water as it started to illuminate a bright light.
.................................
A loud thud of falling trees and cries of scared animals can be heard at the horizon. Mino's body was running like a zombie as his claws were piercing deeply to every single trees that he is passing by.
Mabilis na natutumba ang mga punong iyon habang patuloy siyang tumatakbo ngunit tila pinipigilan niya ang kaniyang katawan sa pamamagitan ng pagbaon ng kaniyang kuko sa mga punong nadadaanan upang mapigilan ang kaniyang mga paa sa pagtakbo.
He growled as a sharp pain crossed his head at mabilis siyang nawalan ng balanse ngunit tila may sariling isip ang kaniyang katawan at bumangon siya at muling tumakbo.
"STOP! STOP PLEASE!" he begged habang tila hinahati sa dalawa ang kaniyang ulo dahil sa sakit. His body continued to do the opposite and continued to run na tila ba sinasaniban siya ng kung ano.
He heard the sinister laugh on his head again and it is making his soul scared. It feels like his sanity wanted to leave his body dahil sa kilabot na nararamdaman niya.
He's been hearing that maniacal laugh habang patuloy niyang hindi kontrolado ang kaniyang katawan na pinipilit niyang sinusubukan sa kabila na mas malakas na pwersang komokontrol sa kaniya.
Ilang sandali pa mabilis na huminto ang katawan ni Mino na tila wala sa katinuan nang matagumpay itong makapasok sa patay na kagubatan. Tila kakila-kilabot ang paligid dahil sa mga patay na mga puno at mga halama't bulaklak na tila tinakasan na ng buhay.
The sanctuary became a living hell for any living things both fauna and flora. His knees knelt down on the dry and dead grasses of the sanctuary at ilang sandali pa ay naramdaman ng kaniyang katawan ang hanging dala ng isang marahas na pagaspas ng pares ng mga pakpak.
He will see the devil once again. Mabilis na lumapag ang mga paa ni Silvia sa lupa at hindi niya maiwasan ang tuwa nang muli niyang masilayan si Mino ngunit bahagya siyang natigilan dahil sa kakaibang awrang lumalabas sa katawan nito.
She was about to laugh with joy upon seeing a living thing after those years of living with decaying corpses in the sanctuary but she was stunned as Mino's body became blurry and in matter of split second he was standing in front of her with his glowing dark red eyes.
Mabilis na nanlaki ang mga mata ni Silvia ngunit mabilis siyang nakaramdam ng matinding sakit habang tila hinahalukay ang kaniyang diwa. She felt how her head was harshly splitting into two na tila ba may nagpupumilit pumasok.
She begun to scream due to intense agony at nangininginig na lumayo kay Mino habang sapo-sapo ng nanginginig niyang nga kamay ang tila nabibiyak niyang ulo. This is not how she wanted her entrance to be.
"This is what you wanted right, Mino? Enjoy choosing her over me!" Vreihya's cold voice echoed on the surrounding as she is slowly walking out of Mino's mind and going back to her own body.
"YOU BROKE MY HEART MINO," she begun as her voice is starting to be distorted shifting from deep to sinister as blood on her eyes started to flow like a river.
"I WILL MAKE YOU FUCKING REGRET IT!"
"Vreihya I-"
He can't successfully finish what he was about to stay despite feeling the weakness of his body as he begun to be blasted off. Mabilis na tumalsik palabas ng santuwaryo ang katawan ni Mino tsaka ito tumilapon sa malayo. The ruler of the sanctuary denied his entrance that's why he was blasted away.
Mabilis na napaluhod si Silvia habang sapo-sapo niya ang kaniyang pumipintig na ulo dahil sa matinding sakit. Her body begun to convulse and the very ground below her is starting to split into two.
She felt a presence on her consciousness and how much wrath it has na tila hindi kinakaya ng sarili niyang pag-iisip. She begun to see inside her head the princess that has her head lowered. Silvia can't help but grin with excitement as she saw her playmate once more.
She will enjoy torturing every inch of her and make her regret going back. She's been longing for her ever since she escaped. The sanctuary became so pale and lifeless when her toy was taken away from her cruel grasp.
"Welcome back prince- AAACK!"
Silvia's eyes widened as she felt a fatal grip on her neck and sharp nails begun to dug up on her skin. Her feet begun to be lifted as Vreihya lifted her up while tightly gripping her bloody neck.
Dahang-dahang nag-angat ng tingin sa kaniya ang prinsesa at dahan-dahang naalis ang mahahabang hibla ng buhok na tumatakip sa kaniyang mukha at nang tuluyan itong maalis ay mabilis na napasigaw sa takot si Silvia.
Her body begun to tremble as she looked straight to those dead and bloody eyes of the princess. Her corpse like face and her very aura screaming death is draining every strength that Silvia has.
Para siyang nanlalamig sa takot ngunit mas lalo siyang nabigla nang mabilis niyang maramdaman ang pagbulusok ng malayang kamay ng prinsesa tsaka niya naramdaman ang pagbaon ng matatalas nitong kuko sa kaniya dibdib.
She felt her flesh tearing apart as the fresh stream of blood gushed out of her chest. Ilang sandali pa ay naramdaman niya ang pagbunot ni Vreihya ng kung ano mula sa kaniyang dibdib tsaka niya nakita ang madugong kamay nito habang hawak ang tumitibok niyang puso.
"We don't need a heart anymore," Vreihya stated on a raspy voice at mabilis na binitawan ang katawan ni Silvia na mabilis na nanghihinang humandusay sa sahig.
"FEEL MY PAIN!" Vreihya stated as her voice became distorted again as her chilling sinister laugh echoed as Silvia trembled in pain while Vreihya completely had taken control of her body once more.
There is always a living devil in every broken heart.
