Novel & Cerita I Know Who Killed Me

A revelation that made the blood freeze in my veins. My dearest Essa, if you are reading this, then the truth has finally found you. But beware. The person who killed me was not Celeste. It was someone closer. Someone who wore the mask of an ally while plotting my destruction. She still lives. She still watches. And she has been waiting for the moment when you would discover who you truly are. Her name is...

But I ignored all of it and just asked one question: “Did I kill that little girl? Did I kill Janelle?!” “H-how did you know it was her–” “Mom! Did I kill her!?” I breathe short breaths, and my heart is about to burst. “No! Of course not!” “Are you sure?!” “Yes! You didn’t kill her, Sophie. It was Redburg who did, and every Council member knows that, especially Mia and Frank.” I closed my eyes, and finally the tear that I was so adamant on holding back, fell. Thank Goddess, I didn’t kill her.. Or else I don’t know how to face him.

From behind his back, he pulled out a sharp utility knife he had prepared before coming home and decided to personally destroy Nova, the demon who had killed me. "You don't get to replace Tina after killing her. You're not worthy." Right after saying that, he lunged forward and ruthlessly slashed the knife across Nova's neck. "Crack!" The knife sliced through her throat, exposing a chaotic mess of multicolored wires. Electricity crackled loudly, and the sweet smile on her face froze. She tried to speak, but the sounds she could make were only distorted glitch noises. Moments later, her body collapsed heavily onto the floor, and the light in her eyes went dark. She never moved again.

Unknown number. “Did you think you could find me easily? Now I have confirmed you aren’t Mia. After all, I killed her.” My breath hitched. My hands trembled so badly I almost dropped the phone. The words sat there, cold. I killed her....you aren't Mia, she's dead. Someone knew I was pretending. Tears blurred my eyes for a second. I wiped them fast. Who the hell was this? How did they know? Then a knock. I spotted boots in front of me.

"I haven't seen Kaia in forever. Mrs. Keene... don't tell me you never even looked for her?" Mom's face fell. She slammed the door in Ms. Johnson's face. "Don't be ridiculous. She's fine at school. Breaking up a marriage is a terrible sin. Do you know how many good deeds I'd have to do to make up for that?" Ms. Johnson knocked a few more times. No answer. I hugged my knees and sank to the floor, watching her walk away as I sobbed. "Ms. Johnson, I'm here! I've already been murdered! Mom just won't believe me!"

Her farewell letter sealed my fate: "After seeing Claire mutilate herself, I realize I've stolen her life. I'm leaving everything to her. Please forgive me." The perfect martyr. The perfect villain. The memory ended. In the extraction room, the last of my strength drained away. No one noticed as my breathing slowed. Across the hall, my family removed their helmets in stunned silence. Mother trembled. "My poor girl... all this time...it was Vanessa all along who did these terrible things!" Lawrence clenched his fists: "We've all been deceived by Vanessa. She needs to pay for this!" "Where is Claire? We need talk to her!" Father barked.

"You lying bitch! Still denying the truth, even at death's door? "I have surveillance video of you killing her, bragging about being some big internet celebrity, Anna Anderson! If it's not you, then who is it?" Emma chimed in from the side, "Anna, if you did something wrong, just admit it. You know what they say. It's never too late to do the right thing." Just when everyone was certain that I was the killer, I looked at Emma, who was secretly gloating nearby, and asked, "Emma, what are you talking about? You're the one who's always lived in this apartment. What does anything that happened here have to do with me?"

The words stopped as she took in the scene. Shit. Shit. Shit. I let go of him, disappearing into the dark street. I hadn’t just revealed myself to my mate, someone else had seen me. Back at the safe house, I shut the door, stripped down to my underwear, and entered my secret room. I sank into the chair, my heart still racing. What the fuck had just happened. I had hesitated on a kill. Even till now I can still feel his skin prickling on my finger like it was embedded there.

“I don’t understand. Come again.” I swallowed hard, tears already gathering in my eyes. “I was killed. Shot by Nikolai.”

"What did I get for caring for you? I ended up depressed and dead thanks to your online bullying! "Jason, you're just an unappreciative brat. Since I have another shot at life, I'm not going to spend a single cent on you anymore! You chose this path, so you'll have to see through it. "You owe me your life. The fact that I didn't make you pay with your life is considered me showing mercy on you!" Jason gritted his teeth. "I won't let you go so easily!" "Let's see what you've got!"
