Rebirth To Revenge

If anyone had told Lenora a few days ago that she would find herself on the edge of a cliff on the verge of death today, she would have laughed to their faces.

It was even worse that it was her supposed best friend who had her in this position.

Looking down from the twenty story building they were on, she veered her head back to Megan with raw fear etched on her face.

 "Please don't do this," Her breath shook with raw fear as Megan enclosed her with three muscular masked men that were there watching incase she tried to run.

They looked like they could blow off her brain in one go if she dared move.

Megan let out a mock chuckle, looking at her with pity. "It's a shame that nothing can save you tonight, Lenora." Her tone dripped with spite.

"I can't have you walking freely knowing that you now harbor hatred towards me for living your dreams. I don't trust the ones who act weak like you, you could bite hard when no one is watching." Megan's lips curled in disgust as she added.

Lenora didn't think this could hurt beyond the pain she already felt, but witnessing Megan say these words to her when she would be dying soon tore her heart into shredded pieces.

"Me...Megan...thirteen years of friendship...what have I done to wrong you?" Lenora's lips quivered as the betrayal hit deeper.  The wind blew fervently around them, lifting their hairs up and fumbling with Lenora’s vulnerable body.

Megan walked in a slow circle around her, acting like she was lost in deep thought. She smacked her lips before she said. "I have wanted Lucian to myself the moment you introduced us. And you were so blind to see that. You think I was happy that you were with a man like Lucian and I kept having heartbreaks in my own relationships for the nonentities I settled for? I would be damned to be happy for you." She sneered.

"Lucian never loved you like you thought anyway, he only enjoyed controlling your weak ass." She chuckled louder this time around, then her eyes suddenly turned cold. "I hate you Lenora, I hate that you act innocent, get favors from others while I struggle to get same favors. I hate you!" She snatched Lenora's hand harshly from her then placed it on her belly. "Lucian junior is breathing right here in my womb. I don't want you to be around when I give birth to my baby boy. That would be torture for you, won't it?"

Lenora couldn't even find the strength to pull her hand away from Megan's belly as another dreadful feeling washed through her. Megan was pregnant for Lucian? She was currently pregnant too.

"Now die!" And just like that, she was pushed off the twenty-story rooftop, and her life vanished before her eyes.

Then, then... the scenario suddenly twisted without warning. A sound went off, sounding like an alarm. 

"I'm dead, I should be dead by now" Lenora subconsciously muttered, feeling a searing pain lance through her skull. It was so relentless that it triggered a strangled gasp from her lips "Agh!" The short scream came out loud, and weak, her fingers curling into the sheets beneath her as she braced up for death. Wait, sheet... not the gravel of the cold death floor that she should be on right now.

She gasped with a frantic jerk, and woke up. How was that possible? She had plummeted from the rooftop, ready to make peace with death, her best friend's cruel laughter as she fell had made her regret her whole life choices in a few seconds. She looked around her with wonder, feeling her heavy breathing, and headache subsiding, but the deep pain of betrayal was there hiding but lying in her chest. Her mouth fell open in shock as she looked around once again. She was in her room, her old room? 

The overwhelming scent of lavender in the room and the surrounding were all so familiar. This was her old room from years ago, why is she here? Or is she dead and now been shown things from her past life? But she felt so alive, how is that even possible?
