Chapter 42- Painted In Lies
Lilith~~
"I will break her into so many pieces that even the Moon Goddess won't be able to put her back together."
She'll feel every pain I've ever felt. A hundred times more.
And there will be no one to save her—just like there was no one to save her last time.
I sucked in a deep breath and swung my feet over the bed.
I tried to stand.
But the pain knocked me right back down.
I hit the edge of the iron bed stand with the back of my head.
"Shittttt!" I cried out, grabbing the back of my head in pain.
Tears stung my eyes but I didn't let them fall.
I clenched my teeth and pushed myself up again, this time slower, steadier.
And finally—finally—I stood up.
I was shaking all over, like a newborn deer, but I was on my feet. That's all that mattered.
I limped toward the mirror in the corner of the room. My breath was shallow, and I could feel the tremble in my steps.
I knew what I'd see.
I already braced myself.
