Chapter 22

KAMDEN was in the middle of pouring water on the flowers when the majesty interrupted he was now wearing a black silky cloak with a soft skin of a panther surrounding the top of it and with his crown on  he look exactly like a King.

“Okay ka lang ba? ” Tanong niya nang maramdaman niyang niyakap siya nito mula sa likod. “Yeah, bakit mo naman na itanaong? ” Kalmadong tanong nito.

Here, he feared nothing. Wala namang makakita sa kanila pero nag-aalala parin siya dahil mas bentang benta pa ang issue kaysa sa paninda. “Dahil kanina hindi mo na gustohan ang pagsagot sayo ni Tyson. ” Aniya.

Thanatos blew a breath. “Nasanay na ako. ”

“Habang buhay mo na lang ba sasanayin ang sarili mo sa ganong pagtatrato sayo? He is your brother you should do atleast try to talk or to do something that could make him respect and love you as his brother. He respected you because you are a King
He respect you as a King not a brother. Magkaiba yun Thanatos. ” Wika niya.

Thanatos kissed his neck and whispered to his ears. “I will. I tried so many times and I’m willing to do it all over again till he accept me again. ” He uttured.

Kamden glanced at him. “You’d better. He is your brother. Dapat nga magpasalamat ka kasi may pamilya kapa. ” Nakangiti niyang sabi.

Thanatos stared at his eyes that telling him a tons of emotions that he can’t name of. “How long do I have to wait for you to say yes to me? ” Kapagkuwan tanong niya.

Kamden smiled at him and looked at the other direction. “Kung isisigaw mo na mahal mo talaga ako. ” Nakangisi niyang saad.

Thanatos pressed his lips together and nodded his head. “Hindi mo yun kaya. ” Natatawang sabi ni Kamden. Naninkit ang mga mata niya, kaya ko yun! he let go of him and took a deep breath. “I love you Kamden! ” Nagulat siya nang sumigaw ito ng malakas deretsong tinitigan niya ito at natulala nang muling isigaw ang pangalan niya.

“I love you Kamden Salvorte! ” The King screamed his name.

“Ano ba yang ginagawa mo! ” Tinikum niya ang bibig nito at natatarantang napatingin sa kapaligiran baka may nakarinig at nakakita sa kanila baka kung ano na namang issue ang lumaganap sa buong Imperial.

“Stop! okay. ” He said. No he warned him.

Thanatos smiled and removed his hand covering his mouth. “So, can I hear my Yes word now? ”

Kamden chuckled. “Sira ka talaga. ”

“I’m the broken man who wants you to complete my broken pieces. Will you say yes and be with me with an endless love? ” He sweetly smiled at him. Waiting for Kamden’s answer.

“No. ”

His smile instantly disappeared. “W-What? ”

Kamden laughed and snaked his arms around his neck and tip toe to reached his face. “Of course, it’s a yes. ” With that sweet words, he kissed Thanatos lips and then quickly pulled away and stared at him. “No words can explain how much I love you. ” He sweetly said.

Thanatos embraced him “That is a good yes. Damn Kamden ang tagal kong hinintay yun. ”

He pinched his nose. “And now you have it. ”

Thanatos smiled. “Sobrang saya ko ngayon, it really made me happy to hear you say yes and to say that you are mine and mine only. ”

Kamden deeped his face on his chest and chuckled. “You should be. ”

Thanatos hugged him back and kissed his forehead, today he didn’t just get the sweetest yes from Kamden his heart felt content and happy. He can’t stop falling in love with this guy because Kamden made realize how cruel the world can be but you still smile and ignore the negativity surrounding you.

“Thanatos... ”

He made a hummed sound and Kamden looked at his face with a small smile painted on his face “Yes? ” He said.

“Is it okay kung satin satin muna to? I don’t want to wake the media and you know issue can be spread fast than the viruses right? ”

Pinangigilan niya ang tungki ng ilong nito “Of course, for my baby. We will wait for the right time to tell them about us. ” He uttured and Kamden smiled at him.

“But there is one person we should tell about us. ” Nakangising tugon ni Kamden.

“Sino? ”

“Mr. Kang.  ”

Napalunok si Thanatos dahil alam niya ang puweding gawin ni Mr. Kang kung sakaling malaman nitong sila na ni Kamden. Mr. Kang is not just his boyfriend’s manager but also like a father to Kamden, he took care of Kamden when his parents die. Kaya protektadong protektado si Kamden sa kamay ni Mr. Kang but Thanatos is getting nervous what if Mr. Kang beheaded him alive? who knows what will happen, right?

“Okay lang ba? ” Sansala ni Kamden.

He nodded. “Yes baby, ayos lang. ”

“Good, bukas na natin sabihin ayaw ko kasing naghihinala iyon matandang yun. ” He pouted.

Thanatos smile lovingly at him. “Anything you say. ”

Thomas is watching his brother with Kamden from the terrace the way Kamden hugged Thanatos made Thomas thinking that something is happening down there between those two.

Maya maya nakita niyang papaalis na sa harden ang dalawa at siya naman ay napabuntong hininga as the hand of the king and crown  prince of the Winterhell palace it is his duty to look after him and the small kingdom he is ruling.

Soon, he will be crown as the King in Winterhell somewhere in the imperial city.

He serves only Thanatos, the King of Imperial city but if someone get in his way from claiming what his. He will wiped them all like a dust.

“My lord, a message from Mr. Kang. ” Japus said and that made him confused. Why would that old man messaged him? Sa halip na magtaka ipinakita sakanya ni Japus ang mensahing ipinadala ni Mr. Kang. Nakasulat ang mensahi sa papel at gamit pa talaga ang pulang ink--- that man is weird. He read every sentences written on that piece of paper. “What the hell is this suppose to mean? ” He calmly said as he reached the last word.

‘Dog. ’ That was the last word he read on that piece of paper.

“Ready my car, I will meet this bastard. ” Naiinis niyang tugon na kaagad namang sinunod ni Japus.

Naiini siya,  nakakaramdam siya ng galit kay Mr. Kang ang kapal naman ng mukha nito na tawagin siyang aso, he is a royal prince of the Imperial the future heir of the Winterhell kingdom and the hand of the king, and Mr. Kang sees him as his pet?! a dog? that motherfucker thinks that he can easily take him down. Well Thomas is not what they think he is.

What they heard about him is all fake. He is way worst than that.

When Japus have prepared the car. He immediately went in and drove away.

He can’t wait to slap Mr. Kang face and tell him how happy he is to do that.

As always, Mr. Kang is enjoying every sunet, sunrise in his place ilang araw palang sila rito pero pakiramdam niya ay taon na ang lumipas. This place is so cool, greece is the ancient place of gods and goddess.

There is a lot of histories here.

Nasa kalagitaan siya nang pagiinom ng alak nang maalala niya ang asawa niya, masakit para sakanya ang maloko naging tapat siya at minahal niya ang babaeng iyon pero heto ang binigay sakanyang kapalit, ang panloloko nito. He was hurt he admit it. Till now he still couldn’t figure it out why did his wife cheated on him? why? he gave her everything. Anything she needs and want. Lahat binigay niya pero parang wala parin nagawa parin nitong sumama sa ibang lalaki.

And what really hurt him. His wife new boyfriend is her boss. Boss lang din ng asawa niya ang bago nitong kasintahan ilan linggo palang silang nagkahiwalay at mabilis naman talagang naka move on ang asawa niya.

While he is here, wondering what is wrong with him? did i really deserve this?

Mr. Kang thoughts is eating him alive. He can’t handle shits like this. He love his wife so much and they ended up so easily, she found someone else while he keep wondering why.

“I deserve to be love. ” He said in a low tone.

That is all he wanted.

To feel the love he deserves.

Masakit man isipin na niloko siya ng asawa niya kinakaya niya parin ang sakit at galit na nararamdaman niya. Nagpapasalamat siya at may kapatid siyang kaya siyang pangitiin at patawinin. He is thankful to god that he have a  brother like Peter Kang. Aminin man niyang may ama parin sila pero alam niyang wala itong pake sakanya dahil sa kapalpakan niya sa buhay.

He will always be a disappointed to his Dad.

“Sir! you are not allowed to go there! ” Hearing Estelle voice made him turned around.

Naninkit ang mga mata niya nang makitang ginugulo ng mga kasamahan ni Thomas ang bahay niya, and what worst is. They ruin his favorite picture.

Iyon lang ang natatanging larawan na meron siya sa kanya.

His jaw clenched. “What the hell? ”

Thomas was smiling from ear to ear as he stopped in front of him. “Sorry for the mess. ” Nakangising sabi nito sabay pinunit ang papel sa harap niya. A bitter chuckle escaped from his lips and sighed away. “You really think you can insult me? ” Thomas said and Mr. Kang glared at him.

“Bakit ka nandito? ” Galit niyang tanong.

Thomas grabbed his neck and he didn’t even react. Wala siyang naging reaksiyon sa ginawa nito sa halip at tinitigan niya lang ito sa mga mata at mataman iyong binabasa. “You called me a dog again. Ang lakas ng loob mo na padalahan ako ng mensahe tapos tatawagin molang akong aso? ” Nangangalit na sabi ni Thomas.

He just stared at him and shoved his hands into his pockets and then licked his lowerlips. “Is that why you’re here? ”

Thomas gripped his neck way harder and he doesn’t seem to be hurt and care. He smirked the moment Thomas pressed his fingers on his skin. “It doesn’t hurt. ” Aniya bago niya hinuli ang leeg nito at mabilis na inalis ang kamay na nakahawak sa leeg niya. Thomas gasped in a sudden shock when he did that.

Now he is the one who’s gripping his neck way harder. “This is the proper way of how you going to choke someone. Understood? ” Wika ni Mr. Kang

Thomas glared at him and at the same time his scared. “Acting like a badass prince pero takot naman pala. ” Dagdag saad pa niya.

Nahalata naman niyang nagsitigilan ang mga taohan ni Thomas at nagmamadaling nagtungo sa kinatatayoan niya at pinalibutan siya ng mga ito saka inilabas ang mga baril sa pocket suit nila. He laughed at Thomas who is now scared and waiting for his next move but instead of choking the Prince he let him go and stared at Thomas’ bodyguards.

“Ang duwag mo talaga. ” Komento niya kay Thomas na ikina dilim ng mukha ng binata.

“Anong sabi mo? ”

“You’re weak, you can’t even come and attack me without your bodyguards. Sila lang naman ang proteksyon mo kaya pag wala sila takot ka, just like a dog... ” He leaned in to stared at Thomas eyes. “Katulad ng aso tatakbo ka rin pagnakaharap mo ang tigre. And don’t you think wrong because you are a dog. ”

Thomas felt embarrased after Mr. Kang uttured those words. He is not a coward! damn it.

Nandilim ang mukha niya at nagbabanga ang kilay sa galit, how dare he say that to my face?!

Mr. Kang smirked and clapped his hands as if Thomas did something nice or something. Lukot nuong tinitigan ni Thomas ang binata na ngayon ay nakangisi at pinapalakpakan siya sa di niya alam na kadahilanan. Mr. Kang still clapping his hands and it’s irritating him. “Look at you, ” Mr. Kang started.

“Getting irritated. ” He added.

“Sino ba ang di maiinis sa ginagawa mo? Para kang baliw na pumapalakpak. ” Naiirita niyang tugon.

“Pinapalakpakan lang kita dahil hanggang tingin kanalang talaga saakin. ”

Thomas forehead creased.

Ang kapal talaga ng mukha niya kasing kapal ng libro, mas makapal pa ata do’n. Thomas thoughts.

“Kaya lang naman hanggang tingin lang ako sayo para kang dumi eh. Dapat na hindi hawakan. ” Aniya, try me biatch. Try me.

Mr. Kang face hardened. “Kung dumi ako, ikaw langgaw. Palaging dumidikit saakin. ”

Kanina pa ito nagtitimpi ng galit at may lakas pa na banatan siya nito ng mga ganong salita. Thomas is running out of patience and any second now he will crash this man into pieces hanggang sa wala nang matira sa lalaking to. Napayakabang at sobrang mahangin.

I should have stay in my desk.
