Chapter 6: Fangs

I was still young when my grandparents exposed me to the prophecy and my future in another world. As I grew up, even with my tough life in the slums, with all of my part-time jobs, debts, and academic problems as a college student, as someone who values the legacy of my grandparents, I kept that old manual beside my bed every night.

Ilang libro rin ang iniwan sa akin nina lolo't lola kung saan naroon ang kaalaman na gagamitin ko sa sandaling makarating na ako sa ibang mundo— Nemetio Spiran.

Yes, I might be aware of King Tobias and his attachment to me, the mirror, the other goddesses from the mirror, and the ways that would make me a complete vampire.

I am also aware that I have to preserve my virginity which has been for my mate—Tobias.

To be honest, I've never been attracted to any male human, siguro dahil masyado lang akong naging abala sa buhay nang nasa mundo ako ng mga tao, o talagang hindi ako pansinin ng mga lalaki.

Who would like someone like me? Bukod sa matigas na iyong buhok ko dahil hindi na ako nakakabili ng conditioner, puro pilat na ang balat ko dahil sa araw-araw na kagat ng lamok.

That's why, I couldn't help but feel ashamed as King Tobias— the smooth King of Parsua Deltora could see how my skin was filled with flaws. When I first saw him, he was literally glowing with the sprinkle of water drips on his body.

Isn't it somewhat unfair?

What if he felt disappointed?

I tightened my grip against the bedsheets under my pillow, closed my eyes, and bit the pillow. His long hair felt so ticklish against my back and shoulders— as well as that poking 9 million. . .

"A-are you feeling unwell?" he whispered as he gave me feathery kisses on my back.

Umiling ako. And then, my shoulders shook and my tears started to fall. Ramdam kong humiwalay sa akin si Tobias sa likuran ko. "I told you, if you're not ready I will not force you. . ."

Kahit hindi ako lumilingon sa kanya, ramdam kong naupo na siya. "N-no. It wasn't like that. I feel ashamed. I am not worth it. You look unreal, perfect. . . puwede ka pang model ng Calvin Klein, but look at my body, puro galis. Ilang taon din kinakagat ng lamok sa mundo ng mga tao."

"Lamok? How dare—"

Agad akong bumangon bago pa niya isipin na nagpapakagat ako sa iba. And when I did that, we finally saw each other's nakedness, I awkwardly pulled the blanket to cover my body.

He sighed.

"It's just an insect, Tobias. Maraming ganoon sa mundo ng mga tao. Those insects feed human blood, but it's just a little, pero minsan may dalang sakit."

King Tobias didn't cover his body. I saw how his fist balled against our bed sheets. "How dare those lowly insects feast on my queen's blood? Show me."

Umiling ako. Nakita na niya siguro ang likuran ng mga hita ko na may pilat dahil sa pagkakamot ko. I am a type of girl who doesn't care about my looks. Trabaho, aral at kung paano kikita sa bawat araw ang laman ng utak ko. Skin care, who?

If I was just informed that my mate was this hot and handsome, dapat ginalingan ko man lang magkuskos ng safeguard.

"I'm sorry. . ."

Kumunot na ang noo ni Tobias at hinila na niya ang hawak kong kumot. And when he pushed me on his bed, I quickly covered my face in embarrassment. I might have the wildest thoughts, but this is still my first time!
