The sound of a footstep echoed in a dark alley, the lights flickering, and a woman came out of the backdoor of a building. Tears in her eyes, gritting her teeth, and clenching her fists tightly. A woman with short brunette hair and an oddly golden eyes color; she wears white blouse, black jacket and black long skirts.
Why did this happened? How could he? she thought falling on her knees. "How could you... replace me with a filthy woman like her," her voice was low, hardly a whisper. She stood up and started walking aimlessly.
Deep in thought. The anger in her heart had consumed her, resulting in her feeling numbness. No sensation. If emotions can kill you immediately, she would've died a second after finding out about her boyfriend's affair.
"Oh, what is this," a man said, he walks in front of Lilith, the woman. "Why is a beautiful young lady like you out here, late at night. Do you have no one to talk to? We can talk at my pla-"
"Shut up!" Lilith's shout, her voice was sharp, staring dagger at the man in front of him. Lilith sigh and look at her surrounding. Where the heck am I, she thought.
"What did you say, woman!"
"Aah!"
Lilith's hair was grab and pulled, and then the man push her on the wall, pinning her arms above her head. Another man appeared behind him and joined in.
I-I need to escape! Lilith thought, tears slowly dropping from her eyes.
"Wait, you're... that famous celebrity from the west, Lilith. Lucky us."
"I-I'm s-so gonna kill you two!" Lilith stuttered before kicking the man square in the crotch. He released her instantly, doubling over in pain. Wasting no time, Lilith run away, sprinting away as fast as she could. Behind her, the second man gave chase, a wicked smile stretching across his face.
"Damn you woman! When I catch you, I going to murder you," the man chasing her yell. He pulled a pocket knife from his short's pocket, and his grinning.
"I-I need to defend myself or escape," she thought, panic surging through her. Then, she spotted a broken pipe lying on the ground nearby. Without hesitation, she grabbed the pipe, turned back, and drove it into the man's chest.
KWUSH!
The pipe pierced straight through the man's heart. It all happened so fast. She stepped back, beads of sweat dripping from her face. Her eyes widened in shock, her entire body trembling uncontrollably.
Her knees gave out, and she collapsed, clutching her stomach. Her hand found the hilt of a knife buried in her abdomen, warm blood seeping through her fingers. "So... h-he... stabbed me... to," Lilith muttered. She fell on the ground, facing the night sky and the rising moon.

I am going to die, in here, alone. It's no use. I can't resist death. If I have an afterlife, I will live that life as I desire.
"Do you promise?" a voice, soft yet commanding, echoed in my mind. Female. Unfamiliar, but... who? "Do you promise that, Lilith?"
"Y-Yes."
Why did I answer? What did it matter? I was dying anyway. My vision blurred, the world dimming into shadows. A figure appeared—a woman, seated beside me. Her presence felt heavy, yet gentle. I tried to focus, to see her face, but the darkness claimed me first.
"Let me tell you a story..."
The sensation of my body begins to fade. Feeling nothing. Literally nothing. As if I have eyes but I can't see anything, I have ears but can't hear anything. Wait, the only thing I can hear is her voice. What is happening, my heart is full of confusion and anxiety. Would I be thrown to hell? heaven?
"Once upon a time, a dragon and a beautiful human woman fell deeply in love, and their bond was so strong, it led them to consummate their relationship, bringing a child into the world. But alas, their love was forbidden, and so, they made the heart-wrenching decision to part ways. The End."
Forbidden Love? I suppose it is. I chose the wrong man to love, I regretted it. This was the last thoughts I've ever had... Lilith's last thought in this cruel, despicable world. In the early hours of the fourth of September, a star had fallen.
