Erissa North in Neria....

The mansion was today unusually loud or chaotic should I say, well it's not really that unusual if we look at the occasion, it's the "25th of youth" ceremony held in the entire empire. today is the day when everyone in the empire is going to congratulate and celebrate for the youth in the empire that just turned 25 this year.

this ceremony has now been celebrated for almost a hundred and seven years.

this festive like ceremony was first introduced by the very first emperor of the NERIA empire his highness FERIA.

the most beloved emperor known down the history.

"and that's a whole load of bullsh!t" screamed Erissa while getting ready for the "25th of youth" ceremony.

" he was not only a psychopath, he was also a retarded pervert who started this ceremony in his 70s to be able to get young ladies of the empire " thought Erissa.

realising that she had startled the maids helping her, she cleared her throat and said, "sorry, I was just lost in thoughts you can continue"

"yes, young lady" they replied in unison.

Erissa was a child of the North family, a common barron family that lived peacefully in outskirts of the empire. Erissa was a lovely child through out her life, forgiving the servants even for hurting her deliberately or taking up abandoned children or the animals down the street was nothing surprising. but even after being an angel her whole life she ended up dying at the hands of her fiance "Rance", who didn't have an ounce of love or respect for Erissa., even when Erissa loved him with all her heart, and gave up her family and things she loved most for him,he did nothing but ridicule her in front of everyone she ever met. she lived as he asked of her, she didn't go out to tea parties and never talked to her family after getting married to him. and they only got to see her again after she died.

"even when she died, she didn't have an ounce of hate for him and the only thing she asked of me was to live differently and love differently" I met Erissa in my dream, one week after coming here. after that Erissa never entered my dreams again.

I am not Erissa North, I am just someone who once lived peacefully on the planet earth with my family in a country called India, our nation wasn't a developed one but was comfortable, there was secularity, different people lived differently and was a nation with rich heritage and history a nation which I can't help but love dearly.

though I loved my nation like that, I couldn't help it but die in a car accident with my family while going on a family vacation to manali.

"I want to visit Manali." said Erissa with a sigh.

"yes?, young lady..? " said the maid standing closest to Erisaa.

"did I say that out loud..?" thought Erissa.

"no, it's nothing" said Erissa politely.

it has already been twenty years since I entered Erissa's body, it has been so long but i still haven't been able to get used to this world.

This world is not just an ordinary one, it is a world of the novel I wrote in my past life, it was my first work as an author.

In my past life I wrote almost 500 works, out of which only five succeeded and the one in which I am, was the worst of all, it not only failed but had me in a huge debt.

this book is worst, not only because of what it did to me in my past life but also because it's going to get me killed in this life.

but there's no way I am going to accept the cruel fate coming my way like that, I am going to escape from that damn man and live happily with my family in this house.

***

at first, I wasn't able to accept them as my family and rejected them with all that I have got but slowly their genuine love and care had their way in my heart. I still love my family from my past life but now for last fifteen years I have started to forget about them no matter what I try I can't seem to remember the memories I shared with them. which is cruel and painfull for me and have me crying at nights just by thinking about it.

I have now stopped thinking about things I can't remember and have now made up my mind to make new memories with new people in this world. and for that to happen I will escape my death.

I am going to get married to the beast of this world. the strongest of all, the only knight next to his Majesty the emperor "Arhon Graze" he will be my sword and armor.

"shall we no go, young lady" asked the maid bowing towards me.

"let's proceed" said Erissa with her usual calm demeanor.

***

"congratulations Eri" said Rose while running straight towards me as soon as I got down the stairs that lead to the entrance hall of our house.

Rose is my 10 year old little sister, she didn't exist in the book I created, according to the book Erissa was an only child.

so when I was informed of having a little sister it didn't sit right with me and I was anxious the whole period she was in mom's womb but all the anxiousness I felt disappeared the moment I held Rose in my hands for the first time.she felt so delicate, soft and precious that I resolved to myself "no matter what happens to me, there is no way I am going to let anything harm my little precious sister Rose North."

"thank you, Rose" said Erissa while taking Rose in her arms.

"congratulations, on getting twenty five Eri" said my mom "Anressia North".

she was the most beautiful lady I have ever seen in my life, she had such beautiful wavy pink hair and those blue eyes were deeper than any ocean I have ever seen. I heard about it my whole childhood how my mother was considered the greatest beauty of time when she was young.

well I can't really tell any difference in my mom when she was young and now, as I have never seen a single wrinkle appear on her porcelain skin.

" thank you, mom" I said with a wide grin stuck on my face.

"I don't see dad anywhere, is he busy..?" I asked confused, as I don't remember even once when my dad was not there for me when I got down the stairs, even if it's only for visiting a friend or a paying a visit in our garden he is always there looking at my back as I set out of the door.

mom chuckled lightly and said, " he was embarrassed to see you with swollen eyes, so he set out first and will meet you at the palace itself."

I chuckled in return and asked, "did he cry again..?"

mom replied with a fondness in her eyes, "has he ever not cried when you are in the question, but that's what I find adorable in him"

my parents in this life are quite love birds and they do not hesitate in doing any kind of PDA in front of me and my sister, due to which now I grown used to it.

I still remember how my face went red, when they first flirted in front of me and then thought that I ran down a fever.

"shall we set out then, carriage is all ready" said my mom taking me by hand.
