He Watched Me Die 99 Times,The 100th Time, I DisappearedChapter 1

My husband had killed me ninety-nine times.

The most recent time, he pushed me in front of an oncoming truck to save his beloved first love.

Casually, he told someone to throw me in the trunk.

"Celeste is pregnant. She can't stand the smell of blood. Don't let her see too much of it."

"You'd better keep it under control. Don't die in our car."

I didn't say a word. Just curled up in the trunk, waiting to die.

Someone tried to stop him. He shrugged.

"She's died ninety-eight times. Every time she wakes up, she just apologizes."

At that, everyone glanced toward the trunk. Someone placed a hundred-million-dollar bet.

A wager on whether my first words after resurrection would be, once again, "I'm sorry."

But they didn't know. After dying a hundred times at the hands of the man I loved, the blood-vow curse would be broken. My karmic debt cleared. I'd ascend beyond the veil.

From then on, I'd have nothing more to do with earthly love.
