Two weeks ago, my family and I went hiking and camping. When the storm hit and the mudslide erupted, my adopted sister shoved me into a ravine. My parents and fiance only cared about my sister. They remained completely unaware of my predicament. A week later, when the rescue team finally finds me, my parents accuse me of being selfish and malicious. They claim I pushed my sister during the chaos, causing her to fall and fracture a bone. "You're selfish and reckless. Not only do you refuse to donate a kidney to your sister, but you even tried to kill her!" they yell. "The bride for next week's wedding will be your sister. She has end-stage kidney cancer, and her dying wish is to marry Ethan. You have to agree to this!" My parents expect me to throw a tantrum and refuse the idea. But to their surprise, I simply nod and say yes. They don't know I have a brain tumor and only three days left to live. At this point, a wedding means nothing to me. Neither does my kidney. If she wants it, she can have it. If she wants everything I own, she can have that too. I'm dying. Clinging to anything now is meaningless. In my final three days, I will give them everything they want and leave behind a perfect image. And when I die, I hope they won't cry, mourn my death, or feel guilty about the way they treated me. After all, isn't it humiliating to weep for a disobedient daughter who only ever sought attention through manipulation?

This book is authored by Dripping Creativity. “Stay away, stay away from me, stay away,” she shouted, over and over. She kept shouting even though it seemed she had run out of things to throw. Zane was more than a little interested in knowing exactly what was going on. But he couldn’t focus with the woman making a ruckus. “Will you shut the fuck up!” he roared at her. She fell silent and he saw tears start to fill her eyes, her lips trembled. Oh fuck, he thought. Like most men, a crying woman scared him shitless. He would rather have a gunfight with a hundred of his worst enemies than have to deal with one crying woman. “And your name is?” he asked. “Ava,” she told him in a thin voice. “Ava Cobler?” he wanted to know. Her name had never sounded so beautiful before, it surprised her. She almost forgot to nod. “My name is Zane Velky,” he introduced himself, holding out a hand. Ava’s eyes grew bigger as he heard the name. Oh no, not that, anything but that, she thought. “You have heard of me,” he smiled, he sounded satisfied. Ava nodded. Everyone who lived in the city knew the name Velky, it was the largest mafia group in the state with its centre in the city. And Zane Velky was the head of the family, the don, the big boss, the huge honcho, the Al Capone of the modern world. Ava felt her panicked brain spin out of control.
