Chapter 8

Author: What’s All This
The moment I swallowed, Sally's eyes snapped wide open.

The sound that tore out of her throat didn't even sound human. It was raw and animal-like. The pain had dragged her back awake.

She finally broke. "Stop… Please… Don't eat anymore… I'll do anything you want. Just stop."

I didn't hesitate. I held out my hand. "Give it to me."

Francis nodded and started walking toward me.

The next second, he grabbed a chair and brought it down on my head.

I never saw it coming. Everything went black.

  • Reborn to Break the Curse   Chapter 9

    Sally and I forgot about it pretty quickly.After that, we grew up side by side, went to school together, and lived through the same years.I picked the right major in college and landed a job at a Fortune 500 company right after graduating.Sally, on the other hand, couldn't find work no matter what she tried. Then, out of nowhere, she remembered those bellflowers from when we were kids.She used their juice to draw patterns again. This time, it actually worked.I became bound to her. Anything that could harm her body would be transferred to me and amplified a hundred times over.In my last life, she used that power to become rich. But not long after I died, the flowers lost their effect.She was quickly replaced by other streamers, and her popularity crashed. With no other options, she started faking eating content, but obsessive fans exposed her.Some extreme followers kidnapped her and forced gallons of pepper-infused liquid down her throat. She died on the spot.In this

Everything went black.-When I came to, I was tied to a dining chair.All the hot sauce and liquor had been thrown out.Sally must've taken something, because her face didn't look as bad as before. She sat across from me, legs crossed, calm again."Kyla, you can't beat me. No matter when, no matter what, you'll end up dying by my hand. I used to be kind. I even gave you six months to live, but you just had to push me. Now, I'll send you straight to hell."She lifted her hand. On her palm was that familiar symbol.

    Sally was dragged inside, her clothes stained with blood.Francis looked even more disgusted. "How the hell are you coughing up that much paint?""I…"Sally froze, as if she had just realized she could speak again. It had been about ten minutes since I had stopped eating spicy food. The pain in her body had already eased."That's not paint. It's blood. Why won't you believe me? I told you this afternoon. In the past, I…"She caught herself mid-sentence when she noticed me watching. She and Francis exchanged a look, then both fell silent.I let out a quiet laugh, staring straight at them. I could see the calculation in both their eyes."I know exactly what you're thinking. And I know why every time Sally ate something spicy, it ended up hitting me a hundred times harder."Sally's first instinct was denial. "I have no idea what you're talking about."I pulled out a jar of chili paste and a bottle of strong liquor from behind me. "You wanna try coughing up blood again? Whether I

  • Reborn to Break the Curse   Chapter 6

    When Francis and Sally walked in and saw me sitting in the living room eating, their expressions fell.Francis stormed over, anger written all over his face. "Do you even know what's going on right now? And you're just sitting here, eating? Do you have any idea how much I lost this time? Six million dollars! The company's on the verge of collapsing, and you're still in the mood to eat?"I calmly finished the last bite of my spicy buffalo wings, then took a sip of liquor before answering him."I'm the one who invested in the company. If I'm not worried, why are you, an employee, freaking out? Stop barking in my ear."His face flushed red. "What the hell did you just say?"Before I could respond, Sally suddenly cried out."Francis! It hurts!"She clutched her stomach and dropped to a crouch, then started coughing up blood again. It splattered across the white rug I had placed by the door.I shot to my feet and walked over. "If you're going to throw up blood, at least go to the

  • Reborn to Break the Curse   Chapter 5

    I had never seen Francis this anxious over anyone's condition.The stress had gotten so bad that there were sores at the corners of his mouth. Watching him like that stirred something in me I couldn't quite name.It wasn't heartbreak over him not loving me.It was the sick realization of what kind of person I had once loved.Back when he claimed he loved me, he said it like I was the only one in the world.Later, when he saw how much money Sally could bring in, he put her on a pedestal. He wouldn't let anyone say a single bad word about Sally, completely ignoring the fact that I was his fiancée.Eventually, I understood.He never loved either of us.Just like the way he trusted Sally.Deep down, he knew she was lying, but he never bothered to check. His love was simple, singular.He only loved himself. And money.Sally and I were just tools.Seeing him panic like this, I didn't say a word. I just unlocked my phone and showed him the livestream.The spicy eating champions

  • Reborn to Break the Curse   Chapter 4

    "Sally has eaten a large amount of extremely spicy food and shows signs of chronic gastritis. She shouldn't be consuming this much spice at once. Kyla's stomach is empty, and everything looks normal. Gastro and neurological exams are both clear."My heart sank.She had actually managed to make it so nothing showed up on my tests.But then, why did hers clearly show she had eaten spicy food? That didn't make sense.Unless… She wasn't just transferring the heat. Maybe she could transfer physical conditions, too.I was about to question her when Francis cut me off, his tone sharp. He pulled off my engagement ring. "We're done! I'll have my assistant put out a ban. You're not allowed anywhere near the company or our streaming locations again."No. We couldn't break up.If we did, I would lose any chance of uncovering the truth.Under Sally's mocking gaze, I forced myself to back down and admit I was just jealous."Francis, I know I messed up. Can we not break up? I…"He shook m
