"It is seems like you love stealing, why don't you steal my heart then" he whispered seductively into her ear. She snapped out of the daze she had been into and looked into his eye confused"But I don't want your heart, you don't even have one" "I do now, so you can steal it already. Henceforth, whatever you pick I will buy in bulk. If it is something edible, I will watch you eat it all up while I pay for it. If it is a book, you will read it.

PRESENT DAY,
NEW YORK AMERICAN (HUMAN WORLD)
Lila's eyelids lifted slowly, her eyes fluttered open and she gasped for air. She stared at up at an unfamiliar ceiling with a bright fluorescent light pouring down on her face,she squinted .
She wondered where she was, everything looked so unfamiliar so strange,what had happened to her? Then, slowly,pieces of what happened to few minutes ago according to her crawled into her mind and filled her thoughts.
She slowly remembered now,the laughter,the tears and then the stabbing pain of betrayal rushed into her. She still couldn't wrap her head around the fact that her mate and twin sister did that to her.
The door pushed open and she looked to the direction of the sound, a woman in a nurse uniform walked in, her face brightened up as she realized she was awake.
"Hello, Lisa" She said, smiling sweetly.
Lila stared at her wondering who she was referring to, she watched the nurse walk to her and placed the aluminum tray she was holding on a table beside the bed. Why did she call her that?
"Where am I?" Lila asked slowly,her voice trembling.
The nurse placed her hand on Lila's head and smiled satisfactorily,"You're getting better, Lisa. You're in the Healing Wing of the Silvermist Hospital, my name is Nurse Patricia"
Lila drew in a deep breath and looked around, she wasn't supposed to be here, how the hell did she even get here? She touched her chest for any injury caused by the gun shot and the stab but she was perfectly fine.
"How...how did I get here?"She asked,her gaze shifting to the friendly faced nurse who was still smiling.
Her expression softened as she asked the question,"You were found unconscious on the road,it seems you got hit by a car or something but the good news is that you're safe now,you just had some minor injuries but that's nothing to worry about Lisa"
Hit by a car ?
And why does she keep calling her Lisa for?
Was this some kind of movie or what?
The last thing she remembered was Cara raising up the knife and....
Her hands reached slowly and shakily to her throat.
Something was definitely wrong.
"Where I'm I?" Lila asked, hoping to hear something that will make everything fall in place and the reason she's been called a different name. The event that took place didn't take her life and how was that even possible?
And what's up with her voice? It sounds so different like it belongs to someone else and not her.
She sounded strange.
The nurse gave her a funny look," Come on, Lisa, I already said u are in the hospital. You're the last child of the Smith family, your sister Cara and your fiancé Mr Alexander were here earlier " the nurse couldn't help but add her identity details because the poor girl looked so confused.
Lila stared blankly at her then her memories of her encounter few minutes before waking up here is. She could remember everything that happened vividly. It was like the memories will haunt her forever and how did she survived.
"No"Lisa shook her head slowly, her eyes welling up with tears as they stung at her eyes,"It...it can't be. This can't be happening again"
The nurse looked at her as if she was going crazy,her brows furrowed,"I dont understand.What do you mean,child?"
Child? Did the nurse just address her as a child. Back in Greenwoods pack, she was twenty five and her sister had always been envious of her father's affection towards her.
They had plotted to kill her that night when the moon was full, her sister Olivia and her ugly husband Richard. Damn them both like that was enough Alex had to join them in their plot. He was her mate, the one moon goddess chose for her as her soulmate, yet he didn't hesitate to join hands with those evil people and have her killed for power.
Tears slid down her cheeks as she recalled everything that happened vividly, she felt hurt and betrayed, she had trusted and love them, how could they do that to her?
Lila looked up at the nurse,"I was killed...killed by the people I trusted most"
The nurse stared at her for a few seconds and her expression changed from concern to surprise.
'How why she killed when she's obviously alive and healthy right in front of her' the nurse thought before speaking out.
"Oh dear, Lisa...I think you hit your head so bad, you'll have to stay here for a few more days until you recover fully"
Lila shook her head and tried to sit up but the nurse held her back on the bed. Lisa looked around again,she was in an unfamiliar place ,this was a new world totally different from hers.
Her mind was racing now,she stared at her palm and touched her face as the nurse stared at her as if she was going crazy.
Lila touched her hair and looked down at the jet black curls that feel on her shoulders ,this wasn't her hair her body either, she had long auburn hair not this.
"Lisa,you need to relax,okay? You might just be going through the shock from when you had the accident" The nurse told her,"You're a strong girl, I'm sure you will recover pretty fast"
"Who am I?" Lila asked, her voice almost a whisper as she stared at her arms.
The nurse stared at her in confusion,"You're Lisa Smith,the last child of the Smith family,you're eighteen and you just graduated from highschool " The nurse almost rolled her eyes at the question.
"What?" Lila asked, surprise written all over her face,"E-eighteen... I'm..."
The door pushed open and they both looked at the direction of the door, Lila's eyes widened in surprise as her sister and husband,the two piece of shit that had pierce a knife into her chest walked into the room.
And the memories flashed through her head and she groaned silently in pain and tightened her eyes close.
...."What have I ever done to you?How can you be so vicious?"
She gave a shrill laugh,"I hate you, Lila. With every fibre in me"
.... she pierced the knife into her chest and I let out a loud cry of pain...
And then as suddenly as the memories had come,they drifted away. Lila stared at them as they walked in but they seemed different.
Her sister who had no fashion sense was dress beautifully and looked like a model while her ugly husband had his hair permed and looked gentlemanly in an expensive suit.
"Finally, sleeping beauty's awake" Cara said, her heels making a disturbing clicking sound on the tiled floor as she walked in with her husband trailing behind.
"Good day,ma'am ...sir"The nurse greeted, stepping back.
Lila's eyes burned with so much hatred and pain as she stared at the faces of the people she had once trusted,the people who had killed her.
Cara walked to the bed and her bright red lips lifted up in a smile that feels so unreal,"Hello, Lisa....glad to know you're alright"
