Yuri's POV:
James nodded. "Yes. Besides, his mate is numb. "He agreed and laughed at us.
"Hey, you should confess to each other. "I hear James said to his mind. I just shook my head.
I sighed and looked up at the stars. "But if it's up to me. I'll choose him. He's the one I want to be my mate with. He's the one I want to be with even though it's very impossible and very difficult. Even though I know he already has one, if I can steal him I will."
"If it is necessary for me to abuse my power, I will do it. Just to have him." I said and turned to Bryan again and our eyes met.
"Sino ba ang 'siya' na yan? Bryan ba ang pangalan niyan?"pang-bubuyo ni James kaya kaagad akong nag-iwas ng tingin. Tumalikod na ako. "It's late now. Mas mabuting dumito muna kayo matulog. We have guest rooms here. "I said at binuksan ang gate. I went silent for a minute as we walk inside the house. I still can't answer them.
Natatakot na sabihin na si Bryan ang tinutukoy ko. But how can I confess my feelings kung simula pa lang ay alam ko na wala na akong pag-asa? Ipaglalaban ko na lang siya ng pasekreto? Mamahalin ng patago?
He has already his mate. At masasabi ko na kung sino man siya, ay napakaswerte niya. Not because Bryan is a Royal. But because he is kind and... a noble man.
Pagkapasok namin sa loob ay si Mama ang sumalubong sa amin-sa akin. Her teary eyes-mixed emotion of excitement and worries.
"Mother, mano po. "I held her back hand and touch it on my forehead. It's an act of respect in this country.
"Kamahalan, nakahanap na kami ng paraan para maputol ang sumpa at para matukoy mo na din kung sino siya. "she declared.
"Ma, stop calling me my majesty. I'm not yet a Queen and you are my family. "I said to her. Naupo kami sa sofa.
"Pasensiya na, "she said. I just smiled. "It's okay ma. Ahm, who did it? How did he find the cure?"
I'm glad that there's a cure in this curse. I saw the twinkle of sadness in her eyes.
"Masyadong delikado ang paraan. But the one who found it is your brother-Prince Yuan. "she said. Dangerous? But danger is my friend, and chaos is my apprentice.
"Ahm, can we talk about it in private? Just the two of us? "I asked. I looked at them. They just nod at me as they agreed, kung kaya kaming dalawa ni mother ay pumunta sa library room.
"Spill the beans, what is it? What kind of danger I will face in order for me to heal? "I asked as I shut the door. "It seems so serious, you are making Bryan nervous. "I don't know, I just feel Bryan's emotion lately.
She sat down on her swivel chair and sighed. "Who is the two young man you are talking about first? "she asked. I sat in front of her table.
I swallowed. "Si Luthor a-and B-bryan. "
"I feel the same feelings on them. The strong unresistable bond, "I added.
"But who among them is different and you most liked? "She asked. I look at directly on her eyes. "I liked them both. They are both kind in different ways. "
"But, I don't want you to think the reason why I liked-no scratch that-I loved him is because of his Royalty. I love Bryan for a reason that I can't explain. "I told her what my heart wanted to say.
"He is the poem I can't tell the rhyme. He is the song I can't tone the sound. He...is difficult to understand when it comes to tale. A tale without a myth. A tale that has an unknown beginning. "
"Kung ganun bakit malungkot ka?"I feel like a thousands of blocks put on my chest whenever I think about the fact that he can't be mine.
"Because he has already a mate-"she cut my words. "Hindi mo ba naisip na baka ikaw yun? Hindi ba sumagi sa isip mo yun? "
"Kamahalan, hindi kami bulag o manhid. The kind of stares you give to each other. His sweetness and kind of taking care of you is a different level. Out of friendship. His gestures and stares, the way he speak, the way he cares for you is familiar to me. To us who have already found our mate. "She said. No. She can be wrong with that. Bryan has no romantic feelings to me neither any connections about mate.
"Impossible. He is just kind to me. And it's natural for a friend of mine. "kontra ko dahil ayokong umasa. Kahit ako naguguluhan but I won't let my guard down and totally drowned in this crazy feelings.
"I don't want to assume, mother. It's hurtful. "
She smiled. "If you don't want to risk, then, it's not love. It's just an admiration. "
"It's hard to see your mate if you are deaf on the sound of the beat of your heart. If you blind at the color of your emotion. You will lose this battle if there's a blindfold in your eyes. Its hard if your are using a telescope in a landscaped frame. "
"I don't know what to believe. I'm lost in this island of feelings. "
"You are lost if you are keep saying to yourself that you are. Keep believing that it's because of the curse. But actually if you can, without a cure, you can break the curse by standing with your hearts decisions not your mind dictation. "
Umayos siya ng upo. "It's up to you. Go on! And hurt yourself. "
"Pero...handa ka na ba?"tanong niya. "Ready on what?"Handa ako, gagawin ko ang lahat para sa kaniya.
"Ang mahiwalay sa kaniya at mamatay? "Napakunok ako sa tugon niya. Ang kamatayan ay iba sa pagtulog. Ang pagtulog ay panandaliang kamatayan. At ang kamatayan ay panandaliang pagtulog ngunit walang katiyakan ang panahon kung kailan muling magbabalik.
