Decreed By Fate นิยาย & เรื่องราว

Mahigpit ang kapit niya sa kanyang mga palad—para bang pinipigil ang sarili mula sa pagbagsak. “Pero kahit ganon...” mahinang bulong niya. “Wala akong karapatang saktan si Fortuna. At kahit pinilit ako sa simula... ang mga desisyong sumunod, ako na ang may gawa. Ako ang pumili na saktan siya. Ako ang nagpabaya. At iyon ang hindi ko na matatakasan."

Pigil-hiningang tanong ko. [“Forget about the silly things that you've been doing ever since then and start a new life.” Hmm. It makes sense.] “Katie...” May halong pagbabanta na sabi ko. [Okay, chill. I'm just kidding.] Napailing na lang ako nang marinig ko na tumawa siya. [Oh ito na yung lumabas. “The stars are in favor to you today. You can possibly meet the person that's been fated to you by the fate itself. Take care of yourself from every ill-fated things just like accidents.”]

Tears of joy threatened to spill from my eyes as I gazed into Reid's earnest expression, feeling the weight of his love and commitment enveloping me like a comforting embrace. Reid's voice trembled with emotion as he gazed into my eyes, his heart laid bare before me. "Will you marry me, Chandria Lily Lopez?" he asked, the words carrying the weight of a lifetime of love and devotion. And as I looked into his eyes, overflowing with love and hope for our future, I knew that my answer would be the beginning of a beautiful chapter in our lives, one filled with endless love, laughter, and cherished memories.

I even thought that destiny was on my side after all I've been through but I was wrong. After being dragged into mud and almost drowned with dirt, there's nothing left but the courage to get up even though it's so hard. My first two months as Castidy without my father's surname was so hard but I need to be brave because of Castiel. I thought everything was falling into its rightful places but I was wrong, weeks after meeting Neon brings me back from hell I've been through and I know that if I agree on marrying him my life will be hellish.

Isang simpleng kasal lang, dagdag pa. Simple. Ngunit walang simpleng desisyon kapag kalayaan at damdamin ang kapalit. “Do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?” Tumango si Lucas, walang pag-aalinlangan. Isang malinaw, matatag na “I do.”

Sino nga ba ang mag-aakalang ang ganoong simpleng aksidente ang magsisilbing tulay para muli kaming magkatagpo ng landas sa pangalawang pagkakataon? “I didn’t know that was already the beginning of fate pulling us closer. I never really believed in destiny before but now, I think I do. Because that moment led me to the woman I am about to marry. Things were not easy for us. What we thought was a happy relationship was suddenly tested. I regret so much that I didn’t believe you back then. I’m sorry for judging you too quickly, for leaving your side when you needed someone the most. I’m sorry for letting my emotions take over,” his voice slowly grew heavier.

“That’s why I’m offering alliance. Temporary. Protect the birth. Let the child choose when old enough.” Don Alessandro studied him long. “Proof?” Lorenzo pulled out an ancient scroll—yellowed parchment with three clan seals. “The original prophecy. Written in blood. The fourth heir will feel the pull of three. But only true love and balance will guide the choice.” That night, magkayakap sina Isabella at Marcus sa kama, ang crystal pendant glowing brighter than ever. “Scared?” tanong niya, head on his chest. “Terrified,” amin niya. “But we’ve faced worse. We ran, we fought, we built empires. This baby—our babies—will have the best protection.”

“Kael… hindi ako papayag na piliin sa ating dalawa. Hindi ako papayag na mawala ka.” Ngunit bago pa siya makalapit, biglang lumapit ang nilalang mula sa dilim. Hindi ito naglakad—tila dumulas lang ang anino nito papalapit. “You cannot deny fate. Dalawa ang sisidlan, pero isa lang ang kakayanin ng cycle. Either you fight each other, or I erase you both.”

Umiiyak ako minsan. Tumatawa ulit pagkatapos. Parang sa gitna ng lahat ng sakit, may bagong bagay na nabubuo—isang kakaibang lakas. Isang desisyon. “Okay,” sabi ko sa huli, mas malinaw na ang boses ko, “Mahal ko siya.” Tumahimik ang lahat. “Pero hindi ibig sabihin nun madali siyang babalik sa akin.”

"Dito ka lang at magbibihis lang si Mommy, okay?" "Alright, mom!" Masiglang sagot ni Adam. Ang dating malungkot na mukha noon ng batang si Adam ay may kakaibang kulay at buhay. Gamit ang aking peripheral vision, napansin ko kaagad ang paglapit ni Deborah kay Ares gano'n din si Arrianne. Hindi ko na sila pinansin pa at nagmamadaling pumanhik na sa grand staircase ng naturang mansion.
