chapter 3

The Sunbeam through the curtains made Arielle, stretch out her body stopping halfway due to the immense pain she felt as if her body has been run over by a trailer. She slowly opens her eyes.

With the flash of sun rays, she closes it and opens them again after a few seconds. She takes a close look around her surrounding which seems to be familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. She remembers falling from a great height how can she survive that?

This is the Royal Court hotel where she lost her innocence, but she wouldn't dare come back here after the incident, so why is she here something she wondered. She sits upright on the bed trying to figure out what happened.

“Is this some dream?” She asks herself not sure of the answer.

“I am not like others, I mean I have lost one leg and fallen from a great height as that of the flat, how can I still be alive? Anabel did mention her mother, added the wrong product to my food making me more sick and weak, so how the hell am I still alive, this has to be some joke or dream.”

she wonders aloud, pinching herself in the process. The hurt was not enough reason to convince her. However, something seemed to be off. She notices the silk blanket slipping off her body, it felt like she wore nothing underneath and he doubts became a reality when she holds the silk blanket from falling off.

“Oh, my God!! Where are my clothes?” She runs her eyes around the room scanning for her clothes and sees them on the floor shredded. “NO….NO this can’t be” her hands to down to feel her amputated leg but it wasn't missing, her leg was in place. This makes her jump off the bed with joy, completely forgetting she is naked.

She walks close to the big wall mirror, admiring her leg. Her face seized to smile the day she woke up without a leg, she dared not look at others in the face and has always accepted whatever life throughs at her, but her glow was back. Her hand goes to the mirror table where she takes her mobile flipping through the calendar. It was 5 years earlier, she has been granted a rebirth 5 years earlier.

Oh….just how much she missed it, was very clear and written in her eyes. She felt so happy having her leg back and being given a second chance. Now everything made sense. She has been given a second chance to rewrite everything.

Things like this only happen in the movies and books she read, she had no idea the heavens will listen to her cries of mercy. Now a new her is back and better than before. She is aware of their plan and knows every move they are thinking about and how they will act.

Why couldn't I come just a day earlier to keep herself, she had to lose her innocence to a man she knew nothing about. She had no idea who drug her and in her previous life, she did not know who it was. He left before she woke up.

The door to the bathroom opens startling her, In the bathroom filled with water vapor, a person was standing faintly. Two strong legs stepped on the waterdrops on the bathroom floor and walked forward step by step, she was lost staring at him not sure of what to do or react, she had completely forgotten about her rebirth and only thought of why there was a man in the room with her. It was better last night for she was under the influence of rugs, but facing him right now, made her feel awkward.

His hair was slightly wet, and he was wiping it with a towel in his hand. There was only a white bath towel around his waist his arbs caught her eyes, and he could see how she stared straight down to his lower abdomen swallowing a huge lump. This lady was something. It is deeply disturbing.

Indifferent and slightly scrutinizing eyes swept toward Arielle, with a trace of indifference. She had no idea of his name or where he came from.

Her eyes, reach his when she felt a godlike figure man staring at her with amusement. Just then she realise she is naked and jumped back on the bed quickly covering her body with the quilt. She was naked however, she just minds raped the man before her.

“I saw everything last night, so no need to cover up” he smugs, and continuously driers his hair with the towel. His voice sounded rather, hoarse judging from the fact that he just come from heaving his bath.

Arielle pursed her lips tightly and did not speak, but just looked at him vigilantly as if scanning a thief. She still could not understand why he was here?, no one was in the room in her previous life when she woke up everyone had left.
