Chapter 1Death's Play

"You have been granted the opportunity to request for a last wish."

She parted her chapped lips, answering with a cracked voice, "Ah, I see." Lily gazed at the knight, who threw a stale bread at her.

"Eat to your fill and decide on your wish as today will be your last, 'princess'." He made no effort in hiding the scornful look on his face as he hummed happily, turning away from the woman whom he once bowed his head to. The thrill of spitting at royalty made him leap for joy.

Lily halfheartedly watched the man walk away with light footsteps, her eyes dropped as she no longer found a reason to act strong. After all, her sister and mother had long betrayed her and the people closest to her had been killed off by her adopted brother and his cohorts, the men from the neighbouring kingdom.

Her eyes lingered on the little fancy bottle containing a small amount of sparkling purple liquid in her hand, she had snatched it from her room before she was imprisoned.

The disgusting smell of mold, blood and rotten flesh permeated the air but she had long gotten used to it after spending an entire month in the dark dungeon. She twirled the bottle in her hand and sighed in exasperation. She knew that they had purposely left her alive for so long so as to break her spirit before finally finishing her off.

It was fine though, this was far better than being beheaded on a podium, right in front of the entire kingdom she once loved.

"Ha!" Her hands trembled as the cold bottle touched her lower lip. The few happy memories she had spent with her so-called family flashed in the moment of death. Her little half-brother, Lorain, who relied on her, even his life was not spared.

How cruel.

The liquid trickled down her throat as she relentlessly emptied the entire bottle. The cold liquid turned warm as it flowed smoothly down her throat, gradually rising in temperature as it flowed downwards.

"Ack." She groaned, stifling a scream.

The mother that never looked at her, the sister that acted nicely but always hated her, the adopted brother that she willingly gave up the right of succession for, and the father who gladly watched his children kill each other.

Lorain never deserved this and neither did she.

They never did anything wrong, all she had ever wished for was to be loved and to love, why was that so hard?

"Ugh." Biting her lips, she slowly fell into darkness.

-

"...Lily, Princess Lily!" A loud voice pierced through her eardrums, forcing her out of the still darkness.

"What!" She jerked up at the familiar voice, turning her head in fright. However, there was no pain nor stench. This familiar space was her room in the rose palace, where she ones resided before it was burnt to the ground by a sudden fire.

"Mary?"

"Oh my God, Princess. Are you alright?" Mary knelt by her side with worry in her eyes.

"Mary?" Lily called out again, her lips were not chapped and her voice was not hoarse, it was rather small and faint.

She moved to come down from the bed but fell when her legs failed to reach the ground.

"My princess!" Mary rushed up to her and picked her up, "Are you still upset that the Queen rejected your wish to see her?"

Wish? Was my last wish to see my mother? And why was it rejected?

Right, the Queen hated her first daughter because she was born of the king, a man she despised the most. Hence, she called her daughter, Lily. Not the lily of the valley, or the beautiful lilies that adorned the kingdom's flag or the plains of the southern region, however, it was a lily that grew in the place she was born, a red spider lily that grew in the eastern region of the Florain kingdom. A poisonous lily and a flower much despised by all.

Why would her last wish be to meet that same woman who treated her like a dreadful flower? It meant that this was a dream, a stupid dream that death had bestowed to her to give her warmth, however this was not warm at all.

Seeing, Mary who died at the beginning of the revolt and this palace that was burnt to the ground on her thirteenth birthday.

"Your Highness, are you still sleepy? I understand that you're sad but you need to come out and-"

Lily placed her hand on her young nanny's face and let out a smile. The hand on Mary's fair cheek was small, so small it could break if it was clenched in an adult fist.

"Your Highness?" Mary blinked calmly.

"Who do I have to meet, Mary?" Lily glanced at Mary.

"Y-you're speaking so eloquently now, Your Highness." Mary teared up, forgetting the question that she was asked, "You cried yourself to sleep last night but now you're acting all grown up. However, you really should come out and greet your new younger brother." Mary added, causing Lily's eyes to widen.

Younger brother? The only younger brother she acknowledge now was Lorain, and he died in the hands of that scoundrel.

"Ha." She scoffed, "What year is it, Mary?"

"It's the 456th year of Kingdom Florania, Your Highness, under the rule of the 16th sun of Florania."

"Haha." Lily chuckled underneath her breath.

How dare death bring her back to a time like this? No! It couldn't be. All of this were too real to be a fleeting memory in the face of death. The air that perfectly filled her lungs, even the late Mary who was holding her in her arms and loyally answering to all her questions, her ankle that ached from falling off the bed earlier. All of these was to vivid to be called a memory or flashes of life past your eyes. She really might have returned to this wrecked family.

However, the look on her face wasn't despair or fear. Her lips curled into a vicious smile while her eyes widened with various thoughts. However, one thought that had gone through her mind at her moment of death; How differently would she have ended if she had become the Queen of Florania? What would her fate be if she ruled over the kingdom of flowers? Was life determined by power? Then if it was, she would thrive to earn power.

"Let me down, Mary." She ordered in a calm voice.

"Pardon?"

"I should get ready to meet my little brother, shouldn't I?" She smiled.

It didn't matter why or how she returned but one thing was sure, she definitely would not die this time. Even though Lorain hadn't been born by this time, she'll gather enough power to protect him when he's finally born.

The Princess and Her Rough-Rider Khan

Petite Princess VS Rough Khan On their wedding day, Yelu Yan told Li Xianyun that apart from affection, he could provide her with endless wealth and honor. After the marriage, he indeed kept his promise, cherishing her in the palm of his hand. Little did he know, the more he cherished her, the deeper she burrowed into his heart, right to the very top. Not long after the political marriage with the Khitans, Li Xianyun gradually noticed earth-shattering changes around her: Initially, the commoners who disliked her began to worship her as a deity... The court officials accusing her of bewitching their lord were now pleading with her to consummate the marriage with the Khan... The most perplexing of all was her husband in name; wasn’t he the one who said he wouldn't give her emotional affection? Why was he always following her around? Little theater scene 1: One day, Yelu Yan cornered Li Xianyun against the wall. “Why are you avoiding this Khan?” “They say you might have taken a liking to your servant.” “Remove ‘might’, isn’t it obvious enough from how this Khan acts?” “But you said you wouldn’t give your servant emotional affection.” Yelu Yan held his forehead; he had indeed said too many foolish things. “The Han people always say that one should start a family and then establish a career; clearly, the two are not in conflict.” Little theater scene 2: The sun had risen high, yet Yelu Yan was still clinging to Li Xianyun. “Get up quickly, I have to leave. There are patients on the street waiting for my consultation, the good fields to the west need irrigation, the homestead plots in the east need measuring, and I have to oversee the silk reeling and dyeing... Uh...” “Your husband is a patient, don’t you care for him?” Li Xianyun looked at the man tough enough to rival ten bulls and was utterly speechless.

Venomous Empress Reborn

# scumtorturing # rebirth She was a daughter of the general’s family and a gentle woman. She fell for Prince Ding and offered to be his wife. After supporting him for six years, she became his empress. After risking being a hostage in a foreign country, she returned five years later to find that she no longer had a place in his imperial harem. Lying in his arms, the new consort said with a sneer, “Sis, now that the country is stable, it’s time for you to die.” Her daughter died a tragic death and her son was removed as crown prince. The Shen family had been loyal, but they ended up being slaughtered. Shen Miao never thought that their marriage and mutual support all this while would end up being just an act Prince Ding put on! Prince Ding said, “On account that you’ve been with me for twenty years, I’ll allow you to die with your entire body intact. Now you may thank me and hang yourself to death.” Before she hung herself, Shen Miao made a resentful oath, “When I perish, I will haunt you day and night!” She was reborn as her fourteen year old self when the tragedies had yet to occur and her family was still intact. She was still the delicate and elegant daughter of a general’s family. Her relatives were evil, her cousin sisters were vicious and ruthless, and her aunties were eyeing her possessions. She had to protect her family, take revenge, and get back what belonged to her. In this life, she would be the last one standing! However, the Xie family’s young marquis, an unruly youth, pushed her up against the wall and said arrogantly, “Remember, the world belongs to you, and you belong to me!” The thirteen cities of You State… belong to you. The city of Dingyuan in Mobei… belongs to you. Yuzhou by the Yangtze River, the East Sea of Dingxi, the Green Lake of Lin’an, and Luoyang City… they all belong to you. If they all belong to me, what will you take, Xie Jingxing? Hmm… you. At first, he said impassively, “There has always been a clear distinction between the Shen and Xie family. For the Shen family’s daughter to suddenly show us goodwill, she must have ill intentions!” Then, he said calmly, “We're all on the same boat. Shen Miao, behave yourself. Who would have the audacity to force you into a marriage while I’m around?” After that, he said proudly, “Overthrowing an empire isn’t that hard. My dear, how shall we divide this great piece of land?” Finally, he waved his hand domineeringly. “Sweetheart, dividing them is too much work. Forget it! They’re all yours, and you are mine!” Shen Miao yelled, “Get out!” A domineering empress who was reborn and a young delinquent marquis. Both leads are righteous and they dote on each other.
