1917 Words
(TICKING SECOND) LILITH’S POV GREED. WRATH. PRIDE. ENVY. GLUTTONY. SLOTH. LUST. The seven deadly sins. Sins that I honestly wondering if which does Elysia have. No, I think she has everything. With her betrayal, her manipulation and her true evil nature. Her perfect plan and façade that I stupidly fall into. She, who move her face close and her mouth to my ear whispers in all the mocking of the world has to over with the words. “Such a fool. You are one hell of a stupid heroine who just becomes a villainess.” She then giggles, holding my chin up and let me see that hellish victory smile that she draws and wide to her face. ‘F***! ‘F***! ‘F***!’ I could only curse at her from my mind. Which is too frustrating and a hell too much with my predicament that I couldn’t do anything at all. My blood is boiling and I wanted to scream to tell everything that they have been manipulated by a witch. The true villainess that they are praising and adored so much. “Lilith.” She calls my name in a whispering way that send the kind of cursing shiver down to my spine. “Since you are about to die, then I think it is the right thing that I should tell you my next plan.” Her proud tone and still drawing that sinister smile that only I could see. “You see, after your death today I will make the rest of this pack and everyone in this race to die. To die with my own hands and for my eyes to witness. My perfect revenge.” She giggles, now showing me the twisted expression that is worst of a demon and close to an insane person. My eyes are wide, as my whole body falls even weaker right after I heard those words. Gave me the thoughts and will be an answered question after my death. But more importantly, the question that I desperately wanted to know right now is, “Who are you?” Wide smile that perfectly resembles and picture the devil’s hell and that devil’s very being. That distinct smile from Elysia is now engrave inside my mind. As the light that reflected to the sharp blade of the sword and the eyes of Daniel that reflected on it. I can only grit my teeth as the blade runs and swift to my neck. Leaving the echoing cheers to fade. ‘DAMN, DAMN, DAMN! I DO NOT WANT TO DIE LIKE THIS! I DO NOT WANT THAT B*** TO WIN AND CELEBRATE MY FOOLISHNESS’. My unconscious world, the line in between heaven or hell, if that what you wanted to call it. Somewhere, something and in between the world of living and the death. Dark empty and nothing, I scream on top of my lungs with the words. “If god really exist, no, I do not care whose god and even a demon or a devil. I wanted to talk to you. I am willing to give everything up, no, my soul in exchange for me to go back and have my revenge.” My desire my only wish and my revenge. “Naïve.” A deep and taunting voice suddenly whispers. “But bold. I like your guts and I am intrigue by your desire. But, is that what you truly wanted?” A question that in a heartbeat I all willing to answer with the word ‘yes’. Then a figure in font of me appears. With only his outline from the darkness where I am right now. I know that he is a man, no, perhaps a devil who is about to grant me with a deal of a lifetime. I then draw a sinister smile and said. “I want my revenge.” He then laughs a bit loudly for a few seconds then said in a taunting, but convincing way. “Then, I will help you have that revenge that you wanted. All you need is to take my hand, and I shall do the rest. In one condition.” “I am willing to give my soul to you.” I immediately offer in a heartbeat, but he smirks and instead said. “I do not need your soul, but something else in return. A condition that you will know after we will meet again, Lilith.” “The exchange without any pretenses. Words that alarms me in a way, but I didn’t care anymore. With that deal and the tone of that being’s voice that slowly faded, just like the light that a second came and then gone. A deal, an exchange, and the equivalent of such a desire. A second chance that I gladly will have more than anything is all mine. “Anything for this desire. I’ll am willing to give up everything, for my sweet revenge.” “LILITH, LILITH, LILITH!” “I’ll be seeing you soon enough, Lilith.” “Miss Lilith!” I jolted wide eyes and awake. Shaken up and somewhat pulled from the deepest darkest hell and is thrown on the spot. I gasp for a moment and two. Slowly picturing, no, clearing my vision and now looking at the ceiling with the familiar unfinished mural of the moon goddess that I’ve been working on from the past. ‘THE PAST?’ The words that immediately ringing inside my head. “I Skylar Reed, Alpha of the Silver Wolf Pack sentence you to death by beheading.” I remember and quickly sit on the bed, a bit panting with my heartbeats that is crazy in the mix of emotions and the things that are a fact and not. I hold my neck and is immediately assures that it was still there and attached. Yet, the swift blade and the jolting pain of the blade still lingers to my mind. My execution and the day that I died. I--- Realizing a thing and two and in a shaken state I patch the facts and said it all myself. “I-I, my wish, no, the deal. Did I really---” I a bit stutters, still couldn’t believe of what happened. “Miss Lilith!” A call and shouting snaps me back to reality. I turn to look beside to see Nanny. My childhood maid and closest companion. Both arms on her waist and looking at me with her usual scolding face, but a bit of a worried tone. “Nanny.” I whisper. A bit teary eyes upon flashes of memories about her. How she took care of me after my mother died. And the day she suddenly disappears and later I learn that she was killed, and all because of me. “What’s the matter, Lilith?” she asks, full of worry. “Why are you suddenly looking like that? Are you unwell? Did you have a nightmare? Why are you crying?” I touch my checks and indeed I am, “Crying.” I whisper. With my cheeks wet with my tears, and her very being that is right in front of me now. My desire had been fulfilled. I clench my hands, runs to face a mirror and confirm it. “I did it. I went back in time.” I whisper, wide smile and proud. “Just what are you saying right now? Is there something that’s been bothering you? Is there something wrong? Just tell me the truth. Do you feel anything?” Nanny’s worry that I understand, but couldn’t say anything to her for I know that she wouldn’t believe me. “Nanny!” I grab her hands, squeeze it a bit and quickly asks the first and most important thing right now. “What day is it toda?” The time that will let me plan everything. The date where I regress and the chances and not that I should take and avoid. Nanny look at me puzzled, but nonetheless, she pulled her phone and showed me the date and said. “Today is your eighteenth birthday. The day of your coming of age.” Her wondering and weirded tone. A confirmation and more that I even double check with my phone that made me smile wide with excitement and a grand plan. “My wolf.” I whisper. As I realize what it means and the time where indeed I perfectly regress to. Thinking of that day, this day and the same time and moment where it all begin. Where I manifest my curse wolf and becomes the Raven With. I look back at my reflection and said. “Silver hair and grey eyes.” The features that is only innate to the Reed’s. The said blessed hue that the moon goddess favors and greatly about. But after tonight, my curse and my wolf will change everything of my life. And it is all because of Elysia. “Just like the late Luna. You are beautiful, very beautiful Miss Lilith.” Nanny’s words and a pure smile. More than enough for me to draw a wide and satisfied smile that I never did before. I look back at her giggling while holding all my excitement and boiling revenge deep inside. With a calm demeanor yet, I am now wearing a mask and two. I am more than glad to go back and regress to the very special occasion and for my revenge to start. “I got a second chance, Nanny. A thing that I will not lose, I will be victorious in this time and around.” I blurted out of excitement. Then she looks at me puzzled. “A second chance?” She asks and in deep wondering what I mean by my words. I then smile in a sinister way and said. “You see Nanny, everyone pointed fingers at me and deem of me to be the Villainess. So, I decided that why not? I shall give them the Villainess that they are waiting to see.” I kind of joke around with half of it to be the truth. “Villainess? Pointing fingers? Just who are those people mocking you, Miss Lilith!” She fumes in disappointment and anger. Which made me smile and hugs her saying, “Thank you, thank you so much for being here with me and staying by my side. Nanny. I swear, I will make things right for me, and for everyone that I care about.” I then giggle. More than determine right now to avenge my death from the past. But the real villain at the stake to be burn alive and have my sweet-sweet revenge. “I will make sure that I have the upper hand, two steps ahead of their plan and schemes.” I lastly whisper, giggling and holding Nanny’s hand who is puzzled and weirded out by my words and gestures. I then look at her, smile wide with excitement, taking my first plan. “Nanny, will you help me with something? Something very important that I should have before the ceremony of my coming of age.” “Of course, what is it and I will prepare it for you.” She cheerfully agrees. “Thank you, nanny, thank you so much.” My smile draws, but perhaps a grin, or maybe a sinister one. Whichever the case, I need to move fast, if I wanted to have my perfect revenge.
