UNEXPECTEDLY (Privileged series #1)

I never thought my roommate was a subordinate of that Fox. But, him, sitting here in our room, it was clear that Trixie, was Hades underling.

Pinagkrus ko ang dalawang kamay ko, habang nakatingin sa lalaking akala mo ay pagaari nya yung buong kwarto namin. Prente syang nakaupo sa kama ni Trixie, wearing that same irritating smile that he always wear.

"If looks could kill, I might've drop dead by now." Nakangiti nyang ani bago suklayin ang hanggang balikat nyang buhok. "Leave us alone, Trixie."

"Sure, make sure na mabilis lang yan. Limited lang ang oras mo dito, Hades. If my uncle finds out about me sneaking you in, he'll kill me." Saad nya bago lumabas at iniwan kaming dalawa.

I don't know how Trixie help Hades to get inside the girls dorm. Boys are not allowed here. Well regarding on how he snuck in, that's not what's important right now. He's here and he want something. It must be regarding on what Dylan told me last time, he told me to find him but I never did. If he wants something from me, hindi ako ang maghahanap. Hindi ako ang may kailangan in the first place.

Pero hindi ko maitatanggi na gustong kong malaman ang kung anong gusto nyang mangyari. Nainip na siguro sya–or was he restless? Foundation day is just around the corner, and both the council and his organization knows that they will make a move. Our enemy.

"What do you want, Hades?" Agad kong tanong ng makaalis si Trixie.

"Straight to the point eh? Also, could you stop glaring at me? Do you still loathed me for what I did in that abandoned house?" Natatawa nyang saad.

"Wow, still shameless as ever." Ang lakas ng loob nyang kwestsonin kung galit parin ba ko o hindi. He should know how much I hated him. "Wag ka ng magpaligoy ligoy pa. If you're enjoying my presence, you should know that I don't. So make it quick if you want me to listen to you."

Nakita ko syang tumawa ng mahina ng marinig ang sinabi ko. "Sure, I'll go straight to the point." Nawala ang ngiti nya pagkatapos sabihin yon. "The Foundation Day."

Foundation Day. I think I know where  our conversation is going.

"They will make a move at that day. And it's an info you know as well. My organization and I wanted your help." He tilt his head a bit without leaving my gaze. "I want you to work with us, your insights will help us navigate easily and make decisions on the spot. I'm not telling you to join us, just a one time alliance between you and my organization."

"Waive's intellect is much sharper than mine. Why me of all people? I'm not downplaying myself, Hades. I know what I can do. But if he's the one you'll ask right now, you'll also have the whole council cooperation. Cause where he is, his council will follow." Seryoso kong ani.

What i'm saying is true, if he can get Waive to cooperate with him. It's much easier to move. With Waive's leadership, My quick thinking, Dia's ideas, Lindon, Ali and Tianna's combat skills, Jaden's medical knowledge and the rest of the council, it will be helpful. Not to mention, Courtney. Kahit paalis na sya, Courtney's wisdom will be helpful.

"What your saying is true. But your mind is all I need, princess. And if I did ask Waive," Napabuntunghininga sya na para bang hindi magandang hingan ng tulong si Waive. "Did you really think he'll agree to work with me?"

True, Waive won't give him his time. Much less a glance.

"And you ask me because? I'm an easy target? I'll have you know, my cooperation is not easily earned. I'm still the Vice president, someone next to Waive. I won't work under anyone, except my president."

"I'm not saying you're an easy target. And i'm also not asking you to work under me. I'm not gonna whisk you away from your president. Just let me use your mind at that day." Nakita kong sumilay ulit ang ngiti sa labi nya.
