The Lady Nun Vows Revenge by Caroline Rowland

The Silent 704

Raisa's heart trembled, her pupils contracting sharply.

She raised her hand and touched the spot on her face where the flying needle had grazed, wiping away a drop of blood from her fingertip

Then she looked to the side, at Eliza, who was holding several more needles between her fingers, ready to strike again.

Raisa quickly said, "Wait, Liza, are you misunderstanding something?"

"You think I'm misunderstanding something?" Eliza gave her a sidelong glance, replying with a question of her own.

Raisa said, “Just trust me. I would never go against you."

"And why should I trust you?" Eliza let out a soft laugh, as if she found her words utterly ridiculous.

She added, "I've already nearly died at your hands, more than once, or died because of you. You think I would believe anything you say? Why should! trust you?"

"But everything I did was for your own good! I really didn't mean to..." Raisa couldn't help but protest.

"You wanted to drown me in the lake. Was that for my own good too?" Eliza interrupted her furiously, her fingers clenching tightly around the needles.

At those words, Raisa paused, a flicker of guilt flashing in her eyes. She bit her lower lip, struggling to speak.

She managed to say, "Liza, that time... if I said it was an accident... No, that I was momentarily insane, would you believe me?"

"You were insane." Eliza sneered coldly. "Anyone who tries to kill their own best friend, how is that not madness?"

Raisa gripped her luxurious robes tightly, unsure how to explain that incident. Because back then, she was truly insane.

It was the first and only time she ever genuinely wanted to kill Eliza.
