Forgotten Legend Of The Bloodied Flower

Belladonna; the devil's favorite flower, a slow sentence of death. Silence, pain and insanity. Artemisia was born being the poisonous root of the family, the shadow on the wall that everyone tried not to see. A legend has fallen upon her since childhood: be loved by her and death will come to you as the poisoning by belladonna, slowly and painfully. As a way to escape from her mother's suffocating wings, Artemisia moved into her great aunt's mansion in to start over and wipe all the blood on her hands. But no matter where it is planted, a poisonous plant will always leave its trail morbid.

Aku meninggal pada hari ulang tahunku sendiri. Namun, orang tuaku dan suamiku sama sekali tidak menyadarinya. Mereka malah sedang sibuk menyiapkan pesta ulang tahun untuk adik kembarku dengan sepenuh hati. Ketika adikku dikelilingi semua orang untuk memilih gaun pesta, aku diikat erat dan dilempar ke dalam ruang bawah tanah. Dengan seluruh tenaga yang tersisa, aku menekuk jariku yang hampir patah, lalu dengan susah payah memasukkan empat angka: 9395. Itu adalah kode darurat sederhana yang dulu pernah kusepakati bersama suamiku, Willy. Itu adalah sebuah sinyal yang harus dia mengerti jika aku berada dalam bahaya. Tak pernah kuduga, pada akhirnya, kode itu benar-benar kupakai. Namun, Willy tidak percaya. Dia membalas dingin. [ Valerie, cuma karena aku nggak bawa kamu beli baju baru, kamu sampai berakting begini? Gaun tahun lalu masih bisa kamu pakai. Sampai jumpa nanti di pesta, jangan bikin ribut. ] Dia tidak tahu bahwa gaunku sudah lama digunting habis oleh adikku. Dia juga tidak tahu bahwa satu detik setelah dia menutup telepon, nyawaku sudah melayang. Jadi, pada malam pesta ulang tahun itu, aku memang tidak pernah muncul. Namun ketika semua orang melihat hadiah ulang tahun yang sudah kusiapkan terlebih dahulu untuk adikku ... mereka semua langsung kehilangan akal.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?" He asked coldly without an expressio. She smiled faintly and said straightforwardly, "I agree to divorce." "However, I have a condition." Jenna licked her red lips, as if she had made up her mind, "I want 50 million compensation." "As long as you sleep with me for one night, I will agree." He gave her a cold gaze, with a scornful smile on his perfect lips. "Deal! Mr. Richards, no pay no goods. After tonight, we will have no relationship." ******************************************************** Jenna Murphy married Hansen Richards, who she loved from childhood but the one who hated her the most.

Saat seluruh keluarga merayakan ulang tahun adikku, aku dikunci di pabrik terbengkalai, dengan darah yang terus mengalir. Adikku menyewa empat preman, menyiksaku hingga nyaris mati. Dengan sisa tenaga, aku merangkak sedikit demi sedikit mengambil ponsel, lalu menelepon suamiku. "Laurent, aku terluka parah, cepatlah datang selamatkan aku ... di pabrik yang nggak jauh, nggak akan menyita banyak waktumu." Mendengar suaraku yang rendah hati dan lemah, suamiku mencibir, "Elena, menangis nggak mempan, sekarang mulai jual kasihan, ya?" "Kamu sampai tak segan melakukan apa pun demi merusak pesta ulang tahun adikmu. Cepat bawa hadiah dan pulang untuk minta maaf padanya. Kalau nggak, kali ini kamu nggak akan kuampuni!" Belum sempat aku berbicara, dari seberang telepon sudah terdengar suara adikku memanggilnya. Suamiku tidak tahu, pada detik telepon itu ditutup, aku sudah tidak membutuhkan pengampunannya lagi. Dia juga tidak tahu siapa mayat berbau busuk yang membuatnya, seorang ahli forensik senior, mengernyit dan menghindar. Itu adalah istrinya sendiri yang telah dia benci selama bertahun-tahun.

Saat suamiku mengancam akan menceraikanku untuk keseratus kalinya, demi memintaku berkorban demi adikku... Aku tidak menangis atau membuat keributan dan menandatangani surat cerai tanpa banyak bicara. Aku menyerahkan pria yang telah kucintai selama sepuluh tahun kepada adikku. Beberapa hari kemudian, adikku membuat pernyataan keterlaluan di sebuah pesta, dan menyinggung keluarga yang berpengaruh. Aku sekali lagi dengan sukarela memikul tanggung jawab itu, menanggung semua konsekuensinya demi adikku. Bahkan ketika mereka kemudian memintaku menjadi subjek uji coba obat untuk penelitian adikku, aku pun menerimanya tanpa ragu. Ayah dan ibu berkata, akhirnya aku menjadi anak yang penurut dan pengertian. Bahkan suamiku yang biasanya dingin pun berdiri di samping ranjang rumah sakit, dan untuk pertama kalinya setelah sekian lama, membelai pipiku dengan lembut dan berkata, "Jangan takut, eksperimennya tidak akan membahayakan nyawamu. Setelah kamu keluar, akan kubuatkan makanan enak untukmu." Tapi dia tidak tahu, mau eksperimennya berbahaya atau tidak, dia tidak akan pernah bisa menungguku lagi. Karena aku mengidap penyakit mematikan, dan sebentar lagi aku akan mati.

The golden boy of high society once stopped a plane for me. And I? I once ran away while pregnant, disappearing for three years. We got married. Nine years later, a younger, stunning woman appeared by his side. She was vibrant and fearless, joining him in all his wild adventures. Meanwhile, I had become a stay-at-home mom, spending my days making sure our daughter didn’t eat junk food. My husband said in disappointment, “Elaine, you’re not the woman you used to be.” Even our daughter complained. “Miss Snow is smart, gorgeous, and makes her own money. But you? You just rely on my dad.” The next morning, I grabbed my ID and filed for divorce. They must have forgotten that at twenty-two, I had the guts to jump off a cliff into the ocean just to break free, and at thirty-five, I would still have the strength to start over.

He seems to have forgotten that I'm buried underneath the snow mountain. He leaves me stranded at the valley for seven days. He's furious when he finds me. "You should be glad nothing went wrong with Kaylee's arms. Otherwise, the only way you could atone would be to die on this mountain! Our wedding is canceled—we'll have it once you realize what you did wrong." He thinks I'll cry or kick up a fuss, but I merely nod and say, "Okay." He doesn't know that I've made a deal with the Moon Goddess. In six days, I'll be giving up the things that mean most to me—my love for Atlas and my memories of him. Once that happens, I'll forget everything about him and start afresh somewhere new. What does a wedding matter when the Ember Sloane who loved him is now dead?
