Garden of Lilies

Chapter 1

With her silver hair sprawled perfectly, Lilith lied on the ground motionlessly with dull eyes.

Not to mention that the ground is on fire, even a demon like Lilith would die from falling at such a high place but unfortunately, as if to make her suffer, the fire is only slowly killing her.

Half an hour already passed and she's still alive after falling. She should make sure to fall at a higher place next time.

Anyone aside Lilith might have died already due to the impact of falling from a cliff onto a sea of black flames.

Now that Lilith thought of it, what heartless people had she been allied with. If someone even had the tiny bit of will to look for her below the cliff, she could've been already rescued instead of waiting for death like this.

But of course, Lilith never really expected that a knight would appear to solve her distress.

"It really hurts.." she said in a whisper, closing her eyes indifferently. Normally, she shouldn't be able to feel any pain.

Looking around her, Lilith gritted her teeth in rage.

These black flames are probably toying with her, killing her slowly... Just look at this area, except the places around her, where can you find a black flame burning within the vicinity??

Black flames are said to be rare, she will make sure to erase all traces of these black flames to extinction to make it even rarer once she's reborn.

Ah, She should also find that witch who dared to curse her.

But it had been two lives already since she was cursed, where in hell is she supposed to search on?

"I have to die first"

But even dying is such a chore now.

'Come to think of it, that man... If i didn't took the fall for him, he'd probably be the one here lying down for death to come.'

'Ahh, now that i think of it, he's really pitiful. Imagine being betrayed. Couldn't be me'.

Closing her eyes again, Lilith thought of how Theodore looked when she saved him. It was a mixture of fright and surprise.

Is it fright for her demise? It should be joy considering how Theodore had always looked at her in a bad light.

She... Detest him. Even when the witch cursed her, she didn't feel any emotions as strong as detest.

They said dying is also a form of enlightenment. Maybe that's true, everything suddenly became clear to her.

Dying for the same person twice is definitely a lesson a harsh lesson for her.

"hmm, It's coming.." just like how Lilith died in her 1st life, a feeling of lightness overcame her senses.

It's really amazing.. She felt free from the curse bounding her to Theodore.

As Lilith slowly lost all her strength and senses, she seemed to have heard noises in the background accompanied bythe sound horses galloping before falling into complete darkness.

Maybe that's Theodore coming for her?

But who cares really. She just wanna go to her third life now.

As Lilith opened her eyes, she found herself in an old wooden house. The night was chilly and uncomfortably gloomy that even her soul could sense the ominous feeling coming from this house.

It was destined to be a rainy and stormy night today.

Just like how she died in her first life, the rain as if it's willing to cry an ocean with the thunder as if mourning, it was all like this.
