In a room full of blood, bodies scattered around and so pungent that it smells so nauseating.

A girl in black leather jacket, a leather pants and a leather boots was standing among the pile facing a man holding a gun pointing to her head.

" Well, would you look at that. A puppy I used to find so cute was a snake all along..

Tsk tsk. So? How long has it been since you betrayed me?"

"If you only accepted my heart, I'd die for your sake and--"

" So you sabotaged me, fled to my enemies and killed my people? Heh, you call that love?"

" You are strong, I sent these 23 men all trained and professional assassins, and you killed them all, but so what? In the end your life is in my hands, just say you'll be mine and love me too, live with me forever, and I'll let you live. "

Looking at the handsome man she used to treat as her younger brother until three hours ago, she can't help but snicker then laugh.

Then all the laughter in her eyes turn cold as she slowly pulled a gun from her back pocket.

And said as she was getting ready to shoot the man " Even if the whole world left no man alive, I'll never go for an obsessive bastard like you!!"

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

As three gunshots were fired, the girl felt all her strength leave her body as the man who dodge one of her two bullets but been scratched by another walks towards her, knelt beside her and carried her lifeless body that just withered after the man shot one bullet into her heart.

As she lost all her consciousness she heard him said "Noe, now you are mine and mine alone. Forever mine!!"

"What a useless girl!"

"Can't she even manage her own health?"

"Do we really have to waste money on hospital bills for her?"

" blah blah blah blah..."

..... What am hearing? Can these people quite down? Don't they know they're disturbing others?

....

.....

.......

........ Wait

...... Wait

..... Something's wrong here....

..... Something is really wrong...

!!

!!

I'm alive? I'm really alive?

Didn't that snake killed me?

How Am I alive?

Before that, I need to escape. Where am I and how many people are There?

Since I'm hearing people I must be in a hospital, but it's impossible that the snake didn't take me to a VIP room so why am I hearing people talking near me?

Should I try opening my eyes?

After a few minutes debating by herself Noe slowly opened her eyes but soon after shock engulfed her.

Who are they? I knew none of them?

A angry looking lady, an indifferent looking man, a young lady that looks like a girl in college, a handsome guy no scratch that two handsome guys who look like two peas in a pod ; a twin maybe?

Maybe because she is looking very intensely or maybe because he felt a gaze on him, one of the twins look over her direction then screamed.

"OH MY GOD! MELISSA!! You are awake!"

Then ran across the room towards me only to shake me like no tomorrow.

"Me- Melissa?"

" Aiya, what's wrong with you? It's not like you hurt your head or anything, You just fainted from a high fever and didn't wake up for 5 days!"

What? Melissa? Fainted? A high fever?

But my name is Noe, and I'm sure the bullet that the snake shot went in my heart, so why am I being called Melissa?

No way!!

Noway!!

I died but I came back?

But in someone else's body?

After hearing what the guy in front of her said, she unconsciously feel her chest up.

There's no wound?

But I am sure I was shot by the snake.

After a few minutes of spacing out, the girl on the bed suddenly laugh out loud.

"Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha. Hahaha hahaha.. Ha. Hahaha."

Shocked, the other four people in the room looked at the girl.

The indifferent man has his reaction visibly change from that of indifferent to one who is shocked then petrified, then horrified, then calm, then finally back to his indifference.

ALL of it in a span of five seconds, almost amusing for the girl lying on the bed who saw this reaction.

She then scanned her surroundings, only to find the other people's face so funny she started laughing once again.

"Hey! What's wrong with you??"

The shocked young girl asked, now looking angry unlike her scared face earlier.

" Have you gone insane?"

Asked the angry looking middle-aged lady whose face looked like someone run off with her entire fortune.

The other two handsome guys who have the same faces, one has his mouth agaped, the other silent but has question marks on his eyes.

" There's no head injury or any other trauma."

Said the doctor after close inspection to the girl who just woke up.

" maybe her brain got fried with fever"

The college looking girl said in her loud whisper.

"Natalia, stop it.."

Warned by the quite twin, the girl called Natalia close her mouth but rolled her eyes.

" So what really happened to her, doctor?"

With visible concern, the quite looking man who warned the girl Natalia, asked.

"We'll see with more test results, for now let's keep her here for a few more days to observe."

"Thank you doctor."

"What exactly did you do to fry your brain that the first thing you do when you wake up is laugh like a lunatic?"

"Mom, she just woke up."

The quite guy said after hearing what the lady had said.

HOW the hell would I know?

I just got here, I don't even know how I come to possess this body.

Maybe she died of fever then I happen to trip over her like this?

Tsk. Like I can tell them that.

" Can you people just leave? I don't even know you so why the hell do I have to listen to all these rambling from you?"

SILENCE

.

.

.

"What?"

" what are talking about?"

"See? What did I tell you? She's got her brain fried!!"

"Natalia!" This time the warning came from the indifferent man.

" According to our test results, nothing is wrong with the patient,. It's just that her fever was so high that she did not get enough oxygen to her brain that caused her a temporary memory lost. "

"She can get her memory in a matter of days or weeks in the latest."

"So I can be discharged?"

"Yes, but you should still come for your check ups."

After the doctor left, she looked at the people around here then said.

"So, who are you people?"

The five people looked at her then the noisy guy from before started narrating her the story.

She paid attention to everything the guy told her while thinking about what happened to the original Melissa.

After a while, the guy was finished storytelling. Then he sat on her bedside the ask her

"How about it? Do you remember anything?"

The young lady in the room scoffed

"as if."

After being glared at by the quite guy beside her, she shut her mouth but frown at him.

Apparently, these people are her family members.

The indifferent man is her father Zeus Herman, that angry looking lady is her mother Leana Collins.

The two handsome guys were indeed twins the quite guy is named Apollo and the other guy who told here the story is named Ares.

While the bratty, young lady is called Natalia Herman, her older sister.

She was told she is the youngest daughter, Melissa Herman.

After the introduction, she was talked into going home with them in which she said yes.

It's not like I have anywhere to go.

The next day, she was discharged.

AFTER THREE DAYS-

AT THE HERMAN DINNER

"hey, did you get back your memories yet?" Ares asked me out of the blue.

"no"

...

...

"That's all?" he questioned me once more.

"what? What else is there?

do i have to entertain you more then?"

".. No. Wait. It's..-"

murmured Ares, not knowing what exactly to say.

"Oh? Then I guess we're good. Excuse me then."

I'm about to stand up and return to my room when the indifferent looking man, I mean my new father spoke.

"You have skipped school for two weeks now, are you not planning to return?" asked my new dad, yes new dad.

I stopped moving the chairs as I was about to go back upstairs.

School? They're sending me to school? No, I mean Melissa is still going to university?

Oh my gosh! This is so exciting!!

I have never really gone to Uni before. I'll finally be able to go to one and see what it really looks like inside.

I regain my cool then looked at my new dad and said.

"What school am I studying in? What's my course? And how much time do I need to arrive there from here?"

Ding. Ding.

A fork suddenly fell down the marbled tile as I finished my inquiry. As I looked over I saw a maid pick up a fork near Apollo..

" You're going to school?" Ares asked with eyes opened so wide his eyeball almost pop out.

"I thought he.." I point my finger to my new dad but realizing it's a bad manner to point at an elder I put my finger down and said

" I thought your dad wants me to go back to school that's why he's asking me, is that not it?"

Your dad?? The rest of the family including the Herman head, Zeus thought ..

I'm your dad too.

After a second, the family decided to ignore her words then Natalia said with her brow raised.

" What's with you? You don't even like going to school, why do you sound like you are excited?"

Crap, I might as well say cause I want to experience what college life feels like.

Who am I kidding? Of course not.

" It's not like staying here with you will do me any good either, right? So I might as well go to school and find myself something to do than argue over nothing with anyone. Hmm? Right?"

Natalia was about to yell when Apollo said

" Ill drive you to school tomorrow then. Excuse me." and stood up from his seat and walked to the staircase.

THE NEXT DAY...

KNOCK!! KNOCK!!

Ugh..who is it??

KNOCK!! KNOCK!!

As the knocking continues..

CRAAASSSHHH....

SILENCE..

..

Now that's better...

i can finally go back to sleep..

...

 5 minutes later..

BANG!!

"THE HELL IS FUCKING WRONG WITH YOU??" Can't you see someone's sleeping? Or don't you have your fucking eyes??"

SHOCKED...
