Kelly's POVThree hundred years ago, an ancestor of the powerful Antonia family, the wealthiest in all of the capital, passed by the city's abandoned baby tower and made a careless, cruel remark.
Girls are useless. They deserve to die.
That one sentence cursed every male descendant of the Antonias for generations.
Since then, every man in the family had undergone a horrific transformation on their 25th birthday. They were growing full breasts and even a womb, as if their bodies were turning female from the inside out.
There was only one way to break the curse, though. It was to marry a woman with the rare "curse-breaking blessing."
My sister and I were both born with that blessing.
In my previous life, Benedict Antonia came to our home asking for my sister’s hand in marriage. But I saw through his real motive and fought with everything I had to stop it. In the end, he was forced to marry me instead.
On the night of our wedding, my sister left behind a suicide note and jumped off a cliff. She claimed I stole the man she loved.
Because of that, my parents called me cruel, and Benedict hated me with every fiber of his being. On the seventh day after my sister’s death, he had me tied to a helicopter like a kite and dangled me in the sky.
I cried and begged him, "I saved your life! Please… just let me go."
His face twisted with rage, he roared, "The one I wanted to marry was Lindsay. Even if you weren’t in the way, she could’ve saved me, too! You ruined everything. You killed her. Now go to hell!"
Then he cut the rope.
I fell from the sky, shattered on the ground, nothing but a pile of broken flesh.
But when I opened my eyes again, I was back on the very day Benedict came to ask for a curse-breaking bride.
This time, I want to see for myself how Lindsay would save him without her so-called ‘blessing.’
——
“Dad, Mom, I want to marry her,” Benedict declared, pointing to my sister in her white dress as she walked gracefully into the room.
As he spoke, he shot me a threatening look, his eyes full of warning.
In that moment, I understood. He had been reborn, too.
My sister tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and asked sweetly, “Mom, Dad… who are they?”
Our parents smiled and proudly introduced her to the Antonia family.
I couldn’t help but sneer.
As if they hadn’t been sneaking around together all along. Now she was pretending to be innocent?
Tired of watching them play their game, I stood to leave.
But Benedict’s voice stopped me. He stared at me with contempt and said, “Kelly, don’t even try that nonsense again about how only you can break the curse. I’m never marrying you. You're ugly and pathetic, so just give it up.”
His parents scolded him, but he only raised his voice louder. “Dad, Mom! That curse is just a stupid rumor. It’s been three hundred years. Why would it still matter?”
Mr. Antonia smacked the back of his head and barked, “You fool! The only reason none of us mutated is because we’ve always married women with the curse-breaking blessing! Your 25th birthday is next week, Benedict. We can’t delay anymore!”
Mrs. Antonia’s eyes were red with worry. “That's true, son. I’m a curse-breaker myself. That’s why your father married me. We’ve searched for over twenty years and finally found two girls with the same blessing. Please, don’t be reckless now.”
But Benedict pointed stubbornly at my sister and repeated, “Then I’ll marry her! She has the same blessing. But I’ll never marry Kelly. If you force me, I’d rather die right here and now!”
I laughed coldly to myself.
So this whole little scene was just a performance to shut everyone else up.
In my previous life, after he announced he wanted to marry my sister, I stepped up and said clearly in front of everyone, “He can’t marry my sister. She can’t save him. Only I can.”
Benedict had exploded, yelling that I was punching way above my weight. My parents had doubted me, too, as they always favored my sister anyway.
Only Mr. Antonia and Mrs. Antonia had taken me seriously. After a private discussion, they had decided to force Benedict to marry me, thinking it was better to risk the wrong bride than lose him entirely.
But they never knew the truth.
Because my sister and I were twin sisters, linked by blood, I could see a secret no one else could, something even she didn’t know.
Yes, she had the same blessing on the surface. But if he married her, she couldn’t save him, but rather destroy him.
