The Red Queen Novels & Stories

Mukhang dito narin ako sa daan matutulog ngayong gabi kapag wala pang dumaan na taxi. Napatingin ako sa kulay red na heels ng taong biglang sumulpot sa harapan ko. Dahan dahan kong iniangat ang aking paningin, sinusuri ang bawat detalye ng dress na suot ng nagmagandang loob na payungan ako sa gitna ng malakas na ulan. My heart sunk down my stomach when i recognized who is she. The Ice Queen, Cassandra. Mabilis akong tumayo at nagpantayan nalang kami ng mata. Kasing lamig ng expression ng kanyang mukha ang ulan but i saw something in her eyes. Amusement?

Hindi ko na ito kabisado. "My son!" Bati naman ni Queen Ruth na ngayon ay nakaupo sa Tea room. Nanlaki pa ang mata ko ng makita ko ang katabi nitong nakaupo. It was an old woman but I can definitely recognized her. She's Queen Snow!

Kabisado din nito ang sukat at design. Siya naman ang nagpaliwanag. “These are the three qualities of the Queen Shoes. First, it's gorgeous. Look at the design. No woman can resist its charm. It’s for everybody. It suits whatever the color of the skin. The crystals radiate their inner beauty, telling every woman that we are beautiful. Next, it's elegant; you can actually wear it on any occasion, even to the wedding of your narcissistic ex-boyfriend, showing your worth. Last, it is a weapon for every lady to protect themselves. Kindly flip the back part of the paper that I think is missed by the plagiarist. That Queen Shoes can be a weapon in an instant by pressing the button in the strap. A

Pero iyon nga hindi ko pa rin maiwasang magbasa ng domumento kahit konti. I turned my view to look at the beautiful scenery outside. From where I am located I can see the roses of different colors, the long man-made lake, the tall palm and pine trees, and green grasses. Everything is peaceful, simply breathtaking. Mapait akong ngumiti ng makita ko ang medyo malayong puting tuktok ng greenhouse, at napapalibutan ng nagtataasang kumpol ng puting rosas. Just like in the movie 'Beauty and the beast' the only difference is ours was white roses while in the movie was red as blood. A matagal na noong huli akong bumisita doon. Matagal na bago ko huling dalawin ang lugar kung saan matatagpuan ang lib

Rekalamo ng dalaga. "Hindi pa nila sayo ipinaliwanag. Ako at ang pinuno ang nagsabi sa kanya na gawin iyon. Sagrado ang dugo ng itim na kambing simbolo ito sa diyos diyosan noong unang panahon. Walang amoy ang dugo nito para sa masasamang nilalang kaya nakakalinlang ito ng diyablo at iba pang masasamang loob"

He added security in and out of the mansion, as well as in our properties and the clans allied with us. Ako mismo ang nag-suggest na ingatan din ang ibang grupong nasa ilalim niya. My maternal intuition was screaming; pakiramdam ko ay hindi lang kami ang pupuntiryahin at pinuuntirya ng kalaban ngayon. The Lady in Red Dragon is a snake—she strikes where it hurts the most, and usually, it’s where we are most vulnerable. Habang inaasikaso ko si Venus sa kwarto niya, isang malakas na busina ng sasakyan ang bumasag sa katahimikan ng gabi.

“Understand her Athena, women should support women no matter what.” Hindi ko natuloy ang pagbukas ng pinto nang masilip ko na magkayakap ang mag-ina. Nakita ko ang pagkalma ni Athena nang yapusin siya ni Red, para bang nagamot ni Red ang galit ni Athena dahil sakanyang haplos. Hindi ko tuloy maiwasang maalala si Daisy at si Rai… kung nandito lang sila ay baka ganyan din sila.

Tila ba’y nakikipagsukatan siya ng titig at tinitignan kung itutuloy ko ba ang pagpaslang sa kaniya. “Ako ang reyna at ang desisyon ko ang palaging nasusunod. Ako ang may pinakamataas na posisyon sa mundo na ito. Ako ang reyna at ako ang sinusunod. Naiintindihan mo ba, Ginoong Arthur? Ang pinuno ng konseho na dapat ay unang makikinig at susunod sa mga desisyon ko?” tanong ko.

When there you will know more; that is, if you will trust yourself to me,' The queen had never before heard an animal speak, and was struck dumb with surprise, However, she was so enchanted at the words of the crab that she smiled sweetly and held out her hand; it was taken, not by the crab, which had stood there only a moment before, but by a little old woman smartly dressed in white and crimson with green ribbons in her grey hair. And, wonderful to say, not a drop of water fell from her clothes.

“At hindi ako nandito para kwestyunin iyon. Sa totoo lang ay naiintindihan ko kayo.” Huminga siya nang malalim bago tumingin sa buong silid. “Pero kailangan ninyong maintindihan kung ano talaga ang Queens system.
