The White Curse (Gazellian Series #2)

Chapter 49

Chapter 49

I am already aware with the name Desmond, he's the other son. Ang kapatid ng mga Gazellian sa unang babaeng minahal ng hari. 

But hearing the words from little Divine, I really don't know how to react. She has a connection with him? How come? I've seen it from Finn's power, the Prince who can manipulate the time was buried deep down in the ocean.

Habang pinagmamasdan ko ang inosenteng mga mata ng batang bampira sa likuran ng itim na belong nagtatago sa akin, ramdam ko ang tensyon at pagkagulat sa buong paligid. 

I tried to reach for their eyes and look for an answer, pero katulad ko ay gulat at pagtataka ang nasa kanilang mga mata.

King Dastan was now standing with his mother, Rosh who's still in his position and not making another movement, Casper remained silent together with his sister Lily while the Snow Prince and his mate were questioningly looking at their daughter. 

Nanatiling nakadistansya si Cora sa lahat ng mga bampira at piniling magmasid lamang.

"What are you talking about, Divine?" the beautiful woman or should I call her Claret started to walk towards her daughter. 

Nakasunod na rin sa kanya ang prinsipe ng mga nyebe. Nanatiling tahimik ang lahat habang hinihintay ang magiging reaksyon ko o kung sino mang mangangahas na magsalita sa biglaang sinabi ng bata. 

Yes, we're all expecting that the Snow Prince's daughter might be the answer but the idea that she has the connection with Desmond?

"Divine, Mama's talking to you." Hahawakan na sana ni Claret ang kanyang anak nang ang prinsipe ng mga nyebe ang bumuhat dito.

"Hey, Divina Amor." 

Hindi man lang natinag ang kanilang anak dahil nanatili pa rin itong nakatitig sa akin. 

We're all waiting for another batch of words from someone else that might calm the tension inside the palace, but all I felt were goosebumps all over my body as I watch the little princess slowly raising her hands pointing her forefinger to me.

"That's her Papa, that her." Lumingon ito kay Zen na nakakunot na ang noo sa kanya. 

"She's what?"

"The milady in my dreams, Papa." 

"Milady in your dreams that?" tanong nito sa kanyang anak.

Humawak lamang ito sa balikat ng kanyang ama at muling lumingon sa akin.

"I've been dreaming about Uncle Desmond, he told me that I should help her and Uncle Finn." She innocently moved her head trying to look for Finn who suddenly went on silence behind my back. 

 At alam kong si Divine at Claret ang matindi nitong dahilan.  

"You mean, you're talking with Desmond?" saglit na nagkatitigan ang prinsipe ng mga nyebe at si Claret. 

Nanlaki ang mga mata ng munting bampira at tinakpan nito ang kanyang mga labi na mukhang nagulat sa mga salitang binitawan niya. 

"Oh, I shouldn't have said that. No! no! I haven't talked with Uncle Desmond." Ilang beses itong umiling sa kanyang mga magulang.

Naningkit ang mga mata ng itinakdang babae, hindi sa kanyang anak kundi sa prinsipe ng mga nyebe. 

"Look, your daughter is now trying to keep something from us. Kanino siya magmamana Zen?" tanong ni Claret na bahagyang nagpatawa sa ilang mga Gazellian. 

"Why are you blaming me Claret? Sutil ang anak mong ito." Pinisil ng prinsipe ng mga nyebe ang ilong ng kanyang anak. 

"I'm not sutil Papa, right Uncle Dastan? Papa's bullying me again my king." Nakangusong sumbong nito sa hari.
