So is this how my life ends...

"Behead her now!"

"Such a villainous woman should die!"

I can clearly hear the voices of my own friends' and colleagues' condemnation towards me while I am kneeling to the ground. My body were covered by many bruises and my hands were tied on my back. The glares in those people's eyes makes me feel that we don't share memories at all.

Is this my karma? All I do is to live by my own standards, I just wanted to be myself. But.. why do they hate me so much?

"Adelaide Reisel von Lascena"

I began to lift my head slowly to see the man who spit my name.

"Your execution will begin," he continued

I smiled bitterly as I saw the man that I devoted my life on, the man I truly love was staring at me in resentment. Prince Alexis, I love him very much that I could do anything to make him mine. But now, his furious eyes we're enough to kill me even though he's the one who will kill me.

I look in my sister's direction and her smirk make me sick.

I'm here at the town's circle as my execution will held in public. I was accused by harming my sister, Ivellina and ended up being persecuted. The truth is, although we don't have a good relationship with each other, I can't harm my sister.

It's funny on how just an accused person like me to 'harm' my sister is facing a humiliation and death in front of many people.

The bell of my execution starts to ring and the people begun to clatter. I looked back and saw many people want me dead even though I didn't know them and I didn't do anything to them, it's hurting me. My tears begun to fall.

'I don't wanna die...'

Do my existence is just that insignificant to let me die into something like this?

The crowd's voice becomes louder as prince Alexis finally drew his sword.

"Any last words?" He said.

I smiled as my tears we're falling non-stop.

"It was sad..." I said in lamentation.

"My life is sad..."

I look in his face but I see no sympathy. My sister were smiling now, I bet she's happy because she finally get rid of me.

He put up his sword and I begun to feel more desperate to live.

I don't want to die! I want to have a peaceful life!

All of my memories flashes against my eyes and I started to wail. Finally, the bell rang for the third time that serves as the start of my execution. Little did I know the sword finally severed my head. I feel surprisingly numb and all I can see is darkness.

If there were a second life, I wanted to be loved. I wanted to feel appreciated and I wanted to feel belongingness. If there were a second life...

"..."

It was so dark and there's a high pitch sound ringing in my ear but it went all silent when I finally open my eyes. I began to wander my eyes in the familiar place.

Was it my room? When did I get back? Didn't I already die?

"Miss, you're finally awake"

A maid confront me while she's handling a tray with foods in her hand.

"Lina, why am I in my room?" I asked.

"Miss had a strong fever and haven't leave her room in about 3 days?" she replied.

"Where's Ivellina? Where's father? Where's everybody?" I asked in confusion.

"Miss, what are you talking about. Who is Ivellina? Your father was in his office right now," Lina answered.

Wait, why did my voice suddenly change? Why did Lina didn't know who is Ivellina?

I looked down and I was surprised to see that my body becomes small like I was just a 12 year old girl.

Wait a minute....

"What's the date today?" I hurriedly asked.

"It's July 13, 980, Miss," she said while scratching her nape.

What... is going on?

I hurried my way and run. I glanced at the window and make a smile on my face. God must've given me this chance to correct my life. This time, I will live in happiness. I will change my fate and avenge my pitiful life.
