Too Late for Regret, Mother
436 Views · Ongoing · Daisy Swift
Brought back to the Sterling family, I became a living blood bag just to cure my younger sister's "terminal" illness.
On the night of her eighteenth coming-of-age gala, I tugged at my biological mother's hem, begging. "Mom, can we skip the blood extraction just for tonight? I just want to stand in the corner, celebrate our birthday with you all, and watch the cake being cut."
"Your sister is still suffering in agony, and all you care about is cutting a cake?"
My mother ordered my oldest brother to lock me in the attic using a heavy silver chain.
When the fire broke out, severely weakened by blood loss and paralyzed by the toxic silver, I was burned alive.
Drifting downstairs as a phantom, I overheard my mother scoffing to my brother. "Elena's blood condition was cured three years ago. We kept draining her just to teach her a lesson. Did she really think she could use the title of 'biological daughter' to steal Elena's place? This is the price she pays for daring to threaten Elena's status."
The truth was, my adopted sister's illness had healed long ago. All my living hell was nothing but a brutal, calculated punishment.
