The 10th Princess

15

"Are you sure?" tanong ni Katalina kay Samantha habang nakatingin rito na nakahiga ngayon sa kama nito. Hinang hina namang tumango si Samantha. "Pwede akong tumawag ng manggagamot, marami---" naputol si Deon sa sinasabi ng magsalita si Samantha.

"Hindi na kailangan!" sabi ni Samantha na kinagulat ng dalawa, kaya mabilis syang ngumiti na animo'y hirap na hirap.

"Ayos lang....na sabi ko na din ito kay Ms. Queen (a/n: adviser nya kung nakakalimutan nyo lang) kaya alam na nila ang pagkakasakit ko" Samantha said then smile palely.

Samantha is not idiot to show herself to her ex-finace, seeing him in the ceremony means, ruining the mission. Its not like she's afraid of him, its just not the right time for him to see her, well and alive.

Deon was worried for Samantha so did Katalina, but their attendance is a must. Their family is well-known in the whole kingdom, their absence means disfavor to the crowned Prince. And their family can't afford to offend the current crowned Prince, lalo na sa mga nababalitang ginagawa nito.

"Sigurado kang kaya mo magisa?" tanong ulit ni Katalina na kinairap naman ni Samantha, kaya natawa naman si Katalina. "Oo na, oo na. I will check you after the ceremony" sabi ni Katalina, tumango naman si Samantha sa sinabi nito.

"Get well soon" sabi ni Deon at ningitian lang sya ni Samantha. Nagkatinginan sina Katalina at Deon bago sila umalis sa kwarto ni Samantha. Pagkalabas ng dalawa, ay mabilis na nawala ang ngiti sa labi ni Samantha at dahan dahan nyang inialis ang makapal na kumot na nakabalot sa kanya kanina.

"Dark" "Yes Captain!?" Masayang sambit ni Dark matapos nitong sumulpot sa madalim na bahagi ng kwarto nya.

Dark Peons, Magic: Mind manipulation and Dark Shadows. He's good at teleporting and mind manipulation. He can put and erase any memories he wants, if he's target answers he's question. Good at physical combat, he's the only one who's can only spar with Samantha in five minutes straight. Love killing with passion, especially girls who's likes to abuse childrens.

"Is everything ready?" Samantha ask then glance at Dark. Dark smirks making Samantha smile. "Yes Captain. Everything is settle"

Samantha sits on her bed then smile brightly at Dark. "Can't believe I have to stained my hands a little.." Samantha mumbled then grin again.

My hands is shaking because of this fucking ceremony! Pabalik balik ako sa kwarto, kaya inis na humarap sa akin si Aris habang inaayos ang blueish suit nya na may lining ng white, his gray hair was comb backward making him look hot, but not hot as I am.

I'm wearing black suit with dark brown linings. I kept my signature messy hair. I look handsome. I know

But this ceremony making me nervous as fuck! I spend my last four years to get away from that Psycho! Even though I wanted to come and see my king father, I can't. I promise him that I will forget about my past life. And now the King of Salt Kingdom is hunting me using he's beautiful and attractive minion. Damn him!

"Top, relax ceremony lang yun. Saka ano bang kinatatakot mo? Ni hindi ka nga kilala ng Crowned Prince" at dahil sa sinabi ni Aris ay lalo akong kinabahan. He has no idea that the crowned Prince knows me better than anyone. Co'z I'm Prince Sky Haiden Walter, the true heir of the trone.

"Where is she?" I heared Aris mumbled as he look at the certain noble couple accompany with him.

I looked at the crowd to find a certain girl too. Aris is right, she's not here. My eyes immediately darted at the certain, black haired girl with amethyst eyes walking to greet at him. And when  I looked at him, I froze when I saw he's also looking at me coldly.

My eyes immediately looks at Wendy's who's bowing at that psycho! But that was my mistake. Heaven looks at Wendy then me, making me closed my fist. He then smile at Wendy while Wendy is smiling shyly. Damn it!

I was about to run towards them when Rita (Wendy's friend) held my hand. "I won't allow you to ruined Wendy's night." She said asar ko syang tinignan pero nagkibit balikat lang sya sa akin bago nya ko pakawalan. At pagbalik ko ng tingin kina Heaven at Wendy ay hawak na ni Heaven sa likod si Wendy papunta sa kung saan!

I immediately runs towards them when I suddenly crashed on someone, he has pitch black hair then asked me if I'm alright. I just nods at him. Then run to where that bastard take Wendy!

Ng nasa hallway na ko paakyat ay biglang may humarang sa aking mga royal guards! Fuck them! "Let me go! I knew that girl!" I yelled at them, they just gave me a smirk. "That girl willingly go with the prince. Who are you anyway her boyfriend?" one of the royal guards mockingly said.

"Are you someone important to us to listen?" the other guard said then laughs at him. "I'am!" he said then he suddenly remembered that he has nothing related to Wendy. He can't even tell this damn guards, who he is!

"See your nothing. You don't have POWER to order us around or to question the CROWN PRINCE. So go away while were still being nice" the royal guard said then pushed Top away.

Aris immediately saw the upcoming commotion, and he rescuedly go to Top to save him from the upcoming trouble. He even scold Top for opposing the prince if he take Wendy away. He's just a normal person and staying away from offending the higher up is he's biggest priority.

While Aris is scolding Top, wala naman sa sarili si Top, habang naririnig ang salitang wala syang kapangyarihan para labanan ang kakambal nya. Alam nya...alam nyang alam ni Heaven na mahalaga sa kanya si Wendy at lahat ng mahalaga sa kanya ay unti-unti na namang nawawala sa kanya.

Ni wala syang nagawa ng utusan syang umalis ng Ama nya para Iligtas ang buhay nya mula sa sariling kakambal. 'Wala syang kapangyarihang labanan ang kakambal' mga salitang sinabi sa kanya ng Ama apat na taon na ang nakakaraan.

Bata pa lamang sya marami ng tao ang pinagkukumpara sila ng kanyang kakambal, kung gaano ito katalino at kagaling sa mga klase nito. Habang sya naman ay isang aninong nakasunod lamang sa yapak nito. Isa lang syang anino na ginawa para maipakita kung gaano kagaling ang kakambal nya.

'Were going to detrown your twin brother and YOU'RE going to replace him and crowned as the new Great Ruler'

He stole everything from me. My trone, my bestfriend and now the girl I love. Top closed his palm into fists. Its time for me to stole everything from you. Everything!

"My isn't it a good show?" Samantha said as she watched Top's every facial expressions, that amusing her. She's sitting in the large trunk of the tree while swaying her limbs.

Dark looks at Samantha. Actually Samantha didn't do anything, The plan there talking about is not yet launch until, Heaven himself makes the trick for them.

He was disappointed as freak because of that, but seeing his Captain's getting what she wants without dirtying her hands is making him satisfied to the result too. After all watching is much more better than making the moves.

'Sooner or later the mouse will fall to the trap...' I thought then smirks.

"Sam?"

Oh shoot! Why'd she's here already! Damn damn!
