CHAPTER FIFTEEN

LOVE AND JEALOUSY

(A/N: UNEDITED. DO NOT PLAGIARISE, OR YOU WILL BE CURSED.)

GULAT NA napalingon sina Dennis at Gabriel nang marinig ang nangyaring kumosyon. Lalo pa silang nagulat nang makitang nakatayo si Cyan malapit kay Robin na nakatumba sa sahig. Hindi nila inaasahan ang ginawang pag-atake ni Cyan sa isang royal guard, kahit na pa galit ito. Agad silang romesponde at lumapit kay Cyan.

Gabriel held her steadily and securely by the waist, kahit na pa hindi naman na niya ulit sinusubukang sumugod kay Robin. Hinatak ni Gabriel si Cyan papalayo kay Robin na nagsisimula ng manginig ang katawan sa sobrang galit. Iniharang naman ni Dennis ang sarili sa kanila, handang dumipensa kung sakaling gumanti man ang lalaki. Maging si Carlos ay nagulat sa mabilis at hindi inaasahang pangyayari.

Cyan didn't feel anything. Ang alam lang niya ay satisfied na siyang nakikita ang putok na labi ng mayabang na lalaki.

Robin growled angrily and quickly rose from the floor, his black eyes full of rage as he glared at Cyan. Nasaktan ang pride nito, at bilang isang royal guard ay hindi ito dapat madaling masugod ng kahit na sino, lalo na ng isang katulad ni Cyan na ang alam nila ay isang hamak lang na tao. He went to lunge at her but Carlos got in front of him, blocking Robin's way, his eyes full of disapproval. He pushed him on the chest.

"I told you not to take the Luna so lightly," malamig na sabi nito sa kasama. "You are not suppose to disrespect her in the first place."

Robin snarled at him angrily. Sasagot sana ito nang bumukas ang pintuan sa opisina at lumabas ang galit na galit na si Lawrence at mabalasik ang mga matang hinanap ng paningin ang lalaking nambastos kay Cyan. He immediately lunged at Robin as soon as he saw him and slammed him forcefully on the floor. Nag-crack and sahig dahil sa lakas ng puwersa ng pagkakatama ni Robin dito.

But Robin is not a royal guard for nothing, he pushed Alpha Lawrence away and went to punch him on the face, only to fail when Lawrence swiftly dodged it like nothing. He is an Alpha, an Alpha of one of the largest packs in the world. Kaya maling kinalaban ito ni Robin at insultuhin si Cyan.

Lawrence was so angry that he no more cared that members of the Council are watching, or that he is attacking a royal guard. Basta gigil na pinaulanan ni Lawrence ng magkakasunod na malalakas na suntok sa mukha si Robin bago siya pinigilan ni Ervin.

"That's enough, Lawrence. You have already done your part," kalmadong sabi ni Ervin habang mahigpit siyang hawak sa balikat.

Lawrence forced himself to stop and pull away from the royal guard, whose face almost turned into a pulp. Pero gusto pa ring makaganti ni Robin kaya sinugod nitong muli si Lawrence. That is when Kian and Ervin both moved to stop him themselves, both of them easily shoved him on the ground.

"We would like to apologize for this royal guard's behavior, Alpha. It is very much uncalled for, and we don't tolerate such disrespectful attitude. Sisiguraduhin kong makakarating ito kay King Zafrix para maibigay sa lalaking ito ang karapat-dapat na kaparusahan," sabi ni Felix na kalmadong humarap kay Lawrence. He looks really humiliated at the guards' embarrassing behavior. Tumingin si Felix kay Cyan na unti-unti nang kumakalma ngayong nasa tabi na niyang muli si Lawrence.

"I'm also going to apologize to you, Luna. Nasabi na sa amin ni Carlos ang buong pangyayari. Hindi dapat ganoon ang inasal ni Robin," sabi nito at bahagyang yumuko sa kaniya bilang pagpapakita na totoo ang paghingi nito ng paumanhin.

Tumango si Cyan, her anger slowly fading, but the force from inside her didn't retreat. "Hindi rin ako dapat nawalan ng kontrol," sabi niya rito, malamig ang tinig.
