17.3: The Princess' Favor
CHAPTER 17.3
The Princess’ Favor“GREETINGS to Princess Luan of Izquierdo Kingdom,” Selene spoke to Lucas’ fiancée with the utmost sincerity as she exhibited the basic etiquettes she recently learned from Countess Hussaine.
Bagamat bahagya siyang nakayuko at nakapikit ang mga mata, dama ni Selene ang pagkakatitig sa kanya ni Prinsesa Luan. There was this uneasy feeling—disgust and discomfort—and it’s reeking. It was something that Selene would usually feel pressured and tense, considering that Princess Luan is a royalty and her position was gained through a three-day war commenced by betrayal and greed.
Meanwhile, Selene is no one but a fallen royalty, only taken in by the King Alexander Sutcliffe to pretend as his illegitimate daughter until they would be able to recoup Izquierdo Kingdom. Of course, it would be done through another war, since the Sutcliffes

CHAPTER 17.4Frustration“DAHIL sa ginawa ni Kontesa Hussaine, napukaw mo pa ang atensyon ni Prinsesa Luan na ‘di naman dapat. Now, she’ll probably investigate your identity. The fact that your name is Selene and that you arrived in the palace the same time I arrived from my expedition would make it all suspicious!” nasisiphayong sabi ni Lucas habang naghahapunan sila.Pinanood ni Selene na manggalaiti ang binata at magngitngit ang mga ngipin habang padabog na hinihiwa ang karne sa pagkain nito. Ngunit wala ni hi o ho itong narinig mula kay Selene. Nanatili lamang siyang nanonood sa binata dahil alam niya, wala naman siyang masasabing kahit na anong pampalubag loob.Hindi nagtagal, pinasadahan din ng tingin ni Selene si Haring Alexander na noon ay nakatingin lamang din sa kawalan at tahimik na kumakain. Tila ba sa mga pagkakataong iyon e malalim ang iniisip nito.Um. S
Blood and Roses 17.5: Lacking
CHAPTER 17.5 LackingWHEN Chief Knight Lyte mentioned that she will delay their swordmanship lesson, Lucas had never really taken it to the heart, thinking that she was just in a bad mood and that she'll still proceed if Lucas pretended to find the answer to what's "lacking" in him. However, when he and Jonas went to the training grounds earlier than usual to wait for both the Chief Knight and Princess Selene, Chief Knight Lyte wasn't there.He tried to search for her, even checking on the other knights just in case Chief Knight Lyte was training someone else before them. However, Lucas couldn't get a glimpse of her anywhere—she's nowhere and he couldn't help it but to be just... confused."Prinsipe Lucas, hinahanap mo ba si Mama?" pag-uusisa ni Jonas ngunit nang matanto nito ang sinabi, tumikhim ang binata. "Ibig kong sabihin, si Chief Knight Lyte."Tipid siyang tumango at ni
Blood and Roses 18.1: Answers
CHAPTER 18.1 AnswersKUNOT NOONG pinagmamasdan ni Lucas si Selene habang naghahabol ng hininga ang dalaga. Hawak pa rin nito ang kahoy na espada at naka-stance pa rin samantalang si Lucas ay relaxed nang hawak sa tagiliran ang kahoy na espada niya. Kalaunan, ipinilig ni Lucas ang ulo bago siya napabuntong hininga.Hanggang ngayon, hindi niya maintindihan kung bakit bigla na lamang nag-aya ng sparring si Selene. Palagay niya, para hindi nito malimutan ang mga natutunan noong huli silang nag-ensayo dahil walang training ngayon. But that idea doesn’t sit right with him. Pakiramdam niya, may kung ano sa ginagawa ni Selene ngayon.Inihanda ni Lucas ang sarili nang hawakan ni Selene gamit ang dalawang kamay ang sandata nito. Habang tahimik niya ring inoobserbahan ang dalaga, alam ni Lucas na naghahanda ito para atakihin siya ngunit sa paglipas ng bawat segundo, wala pa ring ginagawa si Selene kung hindi ang
Blood and Roses 18.2: Report
CHAPTER 18.2 Report“ACCORDING to the intel that I’ve gathered while staying in Vintress Kingdom as per Princess Luan’s wishes, King Alexander recently proclaimed to have an illegitimate daughter named Selene. Based on what I’ve observed, the Princess arrived the same time Prince Lucas returned from his expedition,” was what the knight Princess Luan left to infiltrate Vintress Kingdom reported.Nitong nakaraang bumisita ang anak niya sa Vintress Kingdom, napag-alaman nilang mayroong inampon si Haring Alexander na dalagang nagngangalang ‘Selene’. Wala rin naman sanang kaso at gusto na lamang ipagsakibit balikat ni Morfran ang pagiging overthinker ng anak niya dahil napaka-possessive nito sa Prinsipe ng kahariang iyon, ngunit ngayong siya ang unang nakaririnig ng balita, alam niyang mayroong mali.Napahimig si Morfran sa balita at dinala ang mga daliri niya sa labi.

Blood and Roses 18.3: The Truth Spilled
CHAPTER 18.3 The Truth Spilled DESPITE not feeling any connection to Izquierdo Kingdom, given that she’s the princess of that land, nor she ever felt love or sympathy towards her deceased parents, Selene couldn’t help it but to admire their achievements and sympathize with their tragic deaths. They were only set up to meet their demise early and humans were too foolish to believe lies without seeing any concrete evidences. Katulad ng sinabi ni Merlin sa kanya, imposibleng walang kapangyarihan ang siyang nag-set up sa mga magulang niya. Hindi maniniwala ang mga ito sa walang lamang mga kasinungalingan liban na lamang kung makapangyarihan din ang kumalaban sa mga magulang niya. At imposible na mga Demelza lamang ang dahilan kung bakit bigla na lamang sa isang iglap, nagkaroon ng giyera. “The Heredia family is working with the Demelza family, did you know that?” Ito ang sinabi sa kanya ni M

CHAPTER 18.4Brewing Storm“AKO LANG ba o kapansin-pansing parang may bagyong malapit na bumagsak dito sa kaharian ng Vintress?” pag-uusisa ni Merlin habang sumisimsim ng tsaa.Pinasadahan ni Selene ng mabilis na tingin ang mahiko bago inilibot ang mga mata kina Lucas at Haring Alexander. Ang wirdo pero hindi niya inaasahang bigla niyang makakasama ang mga ito sa pagtatsaa. Halos katatapos lamang din kasi ng lessons ni Selene kay Kontesa Hussaine kung saan tamang pag-inom ng tsaa at pagsalin ang inaral niya. Gusto raw ng mga ito na sila ang unang makakasama ni Selene sa pagtatsaa.Anyway... the atmosphere was supposed to be light but for some reason, everything turned darker and heavier when Merlin mentioned something about a brewing storm.“Ah, you mean that. Palagay ko e nakatunog na sila sa mga plano natin,” sabi naman ni Haring Alexander.Mahinang

CHAPTER 19.1Cutting TiesMABIGAT ang atmospera at nakakabingi ang katahimikang bumabalot sa buong kwarto ni Haring Xavier. Bagamat hindi rin madilim ang lugar, tila ba may kung anong usok na bumalot sa kapaligiran magmula nang pumasom sa opisina niya si Haring Morfran. Hindi niya alam kung iismiran niya ba ito o tatawanan.Morfran Demelza looked pathetic. Like a clown in the circus whose jokes and tricks doesn't work on children. Like a worker who has been fired from his job. He looked like an idiot, one that Xavier would never stop laughing at if he only had a chance.Moreover, although Xavier's amused of this pitiful human, it doesn't really help with the arising problem that he has to deal with while Morfran is here. Lalo na, nitong nakaraan e wala pa ring natatanggap na balita si Xavier mula sa mga ipinadala niyang mersenaryo para hanapin ang kawal na ipinadala niya para patayin si Selene Griego. And at

CHAPTER 19.2 Inexplicable Thirst NAKAHALUMBABANG pinapanood ni Selene si Lucas na mag-ensayo ng espada mag-isa. Sa kalagitnaan ng marahas na sinag ng araw, tagatak ng pawis si Lucas habang patuloy silang nagtatagisan ng lakas ni Jonas. Ang ingay ng bawat pag-swing ng sandata ng mga ito, bawat klang at shing—ewan ni Selene bakit niya ginawa pa iyong sound effects.Nabibingi siya at nababagot panoorin ang dalawa.Though, she enjoys watching Lucas since he's really determined to grow stronger, which was why the young man asked his knight to spar with him. Ang kanya lang, wala kasi siyang magawa. Hindi man lang siya makaalis sa lilim na kinaroroonan nila ni Miss Sephare ngayon dahil kanina, nang tumapak siya sa araw, iba ang pagkapasong naramdaman niya.It felt like piercing—the sun rays are penetrating through her skin and it hurts an awful lot.Kaya ayun, benched
