LUSCIOUS POISON

Chapter 3

"I don't know what you are talking about," Llana shot with such a narrowed eyes while looking at Calla.

"Don't worry, Llana. I am not that ruthless," Calla shot back and that made Llana get herself into a faced palm reaction. She didn't even wait Llana to speak a word and she turned her back at her cousin.

She went straight upstairs with a wicked smile on her face. If these bitches thought they can outsmart her to make her the protagonist at the elders eyes, well, they wrong. Because, she herself can make her one.

She never liked any of her cousins, they acted like they don't do things that would ruin the name of the entire House of Vasquez. They were deceiving the eyes of public and she had sick of that sh*t. Well, her girl cousins were mad at her because of her looks. She named the most beautiful among the women of the entire royal Houses and that made the other women hate her, like she effin care.

She sat her ass down at her dresser's chair to fix her make up. Her brows was raised up after hearing a knock on her door from the outside. She just got here of Christ's sake.

"That's open," she shouted without even seeing whoever was there outside. She heard the door of this room opened and she almost rolled her eyes the moment he smelled the scent of the favorite Princess. She put the make up brush back to her drawer and stood up to get into her closet and was planning to change her dress.

She was wearing white and she think, it didn't fit her. White was some kind of a very vulnerable color for someone like her. She was never like one and she will never be like one.

"Calla, can we talk?" she heard Llana said with her soft tone.

Calla didn't even gave a reaction to her tone and continued getting inside her closet without answering her cousin. Looking herself at the whole body mirror, she smiled after she finally changed her dress into a black one with a hole in both hips. It shows her curve and this is perfect.

The elders, her father and even her mother would surely scold her for this. For the years that she became an independent despite of the family's wealth that she would surely inherit when time comes, she brought herself. Now, she was running her own clothing line that are known for not just the country but the entire world.

She raised her eyes brows after seeing Llana comfortably sitting her ass at her bed, crossing her legs and was kind off getting pissed of of waiting for her.

"I didn't tell you to wait for me," she said without looking at her cousin.

"Calla, I know we were never fond with each other. You even didn't attend in my wedding. And we also didn't have a hated conversation ever since we were a kid. Would you please tell me, why do you hate me?"

She smirked after hearing what Llana just said.

"I didn't hate you, Llana. Hindi lang kita gusto," she said using her mom's language.

Llana who couldn't understand the language narrowed her eyes, "what? Calla you know that it was forbidden to use a language that the other member couldn't understand."

"You also know that it was a disrespect interrupting someone while having meal," she responded.

"Is that the reason why you were kind off having a hots towards me?"

Calla sighed with this plasticity. She hate it having a conversation with someone who are just acting like a saint and putting a word in her mouth, making her something she was not and all.

"Llana, for all the years that we encountered each other during get together, dinner and other royal celebration, was their a time that I talked to you?" she asked her looking at Llana with her sharp look.

Llana who seems thinking of a time of there was any.

"Why didn't you even talk to any of us?" Llana asked her back and that made her smirk.

"Llana, I told you downstairs. You don't have to act like you are innocent. I told you, I know your schemes, I know all of you, I am not dumb. I maybe quite but I was never a whole sh*t myself. I was working in silence."

She saw how Llana's eyes works like she was caught in the action. She smirked when Llana's soft expression was suddenly got shifted into something of an expression like she wants to take Calla down right in this moment.

"What a freaking spoiled brat!" Llana said glaring at her with the famous death glare.

Calla didn't give a f*ck and just shrugged her shoulder, picked her purse at the dresser's table and went straight to the door of her room to turn her back at Llana. However, before she even reached her hand at the knob, she stopped after hearing what just Llana said.

"What did you just said?" she curiously asked.

Her tone of curiousity made Llana smiled like a rebel and was giving her the most smile of a any antagonist.

"You didn't know?" Llana shot back asking her with a teasing smile like she was winning something against her. "I can't wait you to have your feet on the ground, Calla. You were spoiled for you knowing that even though you are giving the King, the Queen and the elders a headache, making horrible things that would ruin the name's reputation, you didn't care because you thought you are the only one who are in the first line to the throne. Now, the news that came to the House of Vasquez would shake the place you are standing. Calla, you have the entire first cousin line as your opponent and to make sure that the throne will fall to the other Vasquez who belongs to the first line."

"I think, you still didn't know me, Llana," she responded with such a high head and a calm voice.

"I know you, Calla. I know you very well. You are ruthless and that is why you don't deserve the title. Say goodbye to your dream of being the leader of the House, Calla."
