No Romance, Please
Fate or accident? I don't know what it was. It played a cruel trick in my life and one day, I was not living anymore. I died! I got transmigrated into my favourite novel, ‘Romance, Please’! (Ok, I agree that it's not a good title but still, I used to love this story.) In the book universe, I pretended to be a princess, started to live in the palace, and even got my very own platinum tiara. I lived much better than in my previous life. But I had to pay the price... The book I loved the most wanted me dead, just for the sake of another character’s development. I had to die in two years, again for the story to progress. Should I wait and watch for the plot to kill me? That's not me! I just chose to rewrite the novel from scratch, together with the villain. Fates started to change. I was made into a queen, the sole ruler of my kingdom. Then again, I had to pay the price. This time it was to sacrifice my love. Plot twist, No Romance, Please, cause it's injurious to health. ************************************************************ Warning: This is a twisted, erratic, nonsensical romance book.
The Sacred Village
I twisted and turned on the bed because the bedding felt rather soft, unlike my usual bedding. It made me uncomfortable. I tried to turn on my sides but suddenly felt a sharp pain in my left shoulder.
"Don't turn. Don't turn. You're wounded," I heard Athena hastily talk. Her voice rang right beside me. It compelled me to open my eyes. I slowly blinked a few times and brought my focus to her. She was sitting beside me holding a wooden mortar and pestle.
"You're awake," she beamed as he eyes widened in happiness. Her beguiling dimples appeared on either side of her face. It made me realize that she hadn't smiled like that since the day she met me in Dagresh.
I tried to sit up, still focusing on her cheeks. My abrupt movement caused pain and I flinched. The next instant her dimples disappeared.
