Beeeep. Beep. eep... p...

The sounds of the Holter monitor's volumes are fading away with each second that is passing unlike the rest of the room in the hospital.

A young woman was laying down on the hospital bed. She had blood all over her body. The cuts were so deep it's obvious she had no time left to live. She had black circles underneath her eyes from the lack of sleep. Her breathing was getting heavier.

No one was around her. No family members, no doctors, no one.

'Is this how I die?.. I need to avenge my death. I need to kill those who did this to me!.. God, why are you so unfair?' She resisted to close her eyes with all her strength that were left within her body. Slowly, her heartbeat stopped.

BEEP.

A loud noise came from that chamber with red sirens.

The doctors hurried, but too late. The soul in the body has already left.

"She's no longer..." one of the doctors muttered as he examined the Holter monitor.

***

A young girl was sleeping like sleeping beauty itself. Her beauty was unimaginable. Her hair blonde hair like the sunshine was extremely beautiful. The young woman opened her eyes and sat up straight on her bed panting. Like she had a bad nightmare.

"Hah... Hah..." she panted taking deep breaths as a fish out of water would do when it finally went inside of the water after getting out outside for too long. It was as if she had lost her life.

"Where's this?" She looked around the room.

The room was coloured with a light yellow and the lights were huge and magnificent. There was a big fan light at the center of the bedroom. It was extremely clean and neat. The wardrobes were white matching along with a mirror at the other side of the bed. At the end of the chamber, there was a little table on which there were two-three jewelry sets along with the mirror.

"Wasn't I at the hospital? Is this... heaven?" The female stood out of the bed and looked around the room.

Someone entered the room in a maid's dress. She had light brown skin with brown eyes and black hair. She was glaring at the female. As if she didn't want to see her, but she hurriedly changed her expression.

She smiled with a delighted face filled with happiness and relief. Her eyes filled up with tears.

"You're awake, my lady! I'll go tell the emperor right now." The maid hurried and walked away leaving the 'lady' confused in the room.

"What's going on here? Lady? What's with this ridiculous cosplay with maid clothes? Is this how heaven works??" She raised an eyebrow still confused.

Her eyes fell on a mirror and gasped in shock as her eyes widened.

'This is not me!' She screamed silently in her mind as she caressed the face with her hands slowly.

The woman in front of the mirror was a young girl with blonde hair. Her eyes were prettier then any jade. Her skin was pale and her body was thin. She had a frail-looking body as if it would break anytime. The bones of her hand was almost visible.

"Aveline." A gravelly calm and manly voice came from outside the door.

'Aveline?' The blonde haired woman opened the door and saw a young man with the same look as her standing in front of her.

"I heard you woke up. You seem fine." He said with a glare as if he didn't want to meet her. Or he wished he never had to meet her, ever again.

'Aveline's body stared to shiver on its own.

"I-I'm ok." The girl replied with a soft voice.

"Good."

The emperor walked away indifferently.

The young girl was still confused and headed towards the bed and took a sit.

'So her name is the same as mine... but why didn't I die? Is it because I refused to die without revenge?? Am I trapped in this world or something?'

Aveline's mind went wilder by thoughts. She never has the time to read novels or anything to even know this could happen.

She came back to her senses only when she heard her maid calling her.

"Princess. What's wrong? You seem zoned out?" The brown haired girl asked with a smile on her cute face.

"Uhm. What's your name again?" Ave asked uneasy.

"Why do you keep forgetting? It's Emily." She said with a pout on her face.

"What happens if a person takes over someone from the royal family? As they... try to act as if they are them but they aren't?" Ave gulped nervously.

"They will be executed for sure." Emily put her finger under her chin as thinking about the consequences. "But why, you highness?" She asked as she glanced at Aveline.

"N-no reason." She said with a soft trembling voice.

"Are you sick again? Should I call a doctor?" The maid asked impatiently worried about the princess' trembling voice.

"No. I'm okay." Ave curved her rosy lips and smiled stiffly.

As the maid walked out of her room Ave bite her lips making them bleed.

The pain of her bleeding lips doesn't seem to effect her.

'I escaped death to die again? Seriously! God, you're so unfair.'

Someone knocked on the door and entered the room but the young woman didn't hear any noise. Aveline's lips were bleeding still. She came back to her senses only when she felt someone wiping her lips. Her eyes widen and looked up at the person in front of her.

A tall man with dark black hair was bent over in front of her, wiping her bleeding lips. His eyes were yellow, shining like the sun. He had long eyelashes with a perfect-figured jawline. His dress was quite fancy and similar to the man who visited her earlier in the same day. His Adam's apple was visible since his shirt's collar wasn't buttoned. It made him look sexy.

"W-" as she was going to asked, she remembered her maid words.

-"They will get executed!"-

She stopped talking but the other person sat beside her and curved his lips to smile.

"What's wrong with you, today Avi?" The man sighed and lovingly caressed her cheek.

"N-nothing." her eyes turned around she tried to figure out who he might be to the owner of the body.

"Finally, we will get married!" Jack said with an excited expression.

"O-oh yeah," Ave replied as her heartbeat increased. Her palm started sweating from fear. She bites her lips again unconsciously.

Jack frowned and put his thumb on her lips. She stopped to stare at the dazzling man in front of her.

"What's wrong? Talk to me." he smiled gently as his hand slowly reached her hair. He put them behind her ear.

"Just... Can we not get married?" she asked boldly.

Jack didn't like her question at all.

"You're being absurd! You're the one who agreed to marry me a few days ago! How can you think of taking back your words with me?!" He yelled and took a deep breath right after. "Aveline. You belong to me now. You always did. From the time we meet when we were small. I have always loved you. So why are you saying this when I finally got your brother's permission?" he whispered against her ear. He then took another deep breath to calm down.

'What?! He's her childhood friend and adulthood lover?! Like the love of her life?!.. What do I do... Should I just find a way to run away? Yeah, that should do.'

"Avi? Did someone bother you? Is it Lady Mary? Should I execute her family?" He stared at her with deep passion.

Avi shivered hearing that. 'Do people kill without reason like this here??' She felt a chill going down her body.
