The Lady of Miracles: Unknown Woman
The next morning, I quickly got up and headed for the lab. I had everything I needed for the proper antibiotics. If I were to complete this today, the infected citizens would feel better. As soon as I walked into the lab, an unknown person was already there.
She wasn’t someone I recognized and I usually keep track of everyone who entered the lab. I didn’t want people who knew nothing about the medicine I’ve been developing to enter the tent since it could cause damage if they ever put in the wrong ingredient.
“Excuse me but who are you?” I asked her. She had her back facing me and as soon as I spoke, she immediately stiffened up. I had a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach. No one else was around the lab and no one apart from this stranger was in it.
Something was d

“Someone! Stop that woman!” I shouted. The guard nearby heard me and they immediately chased after the woman. I knew I wouldn’t be able to catch up with them so I turned on my heel and went back to the lab. I needed to check what she did there. I was worried that she was there to sabotage the medicine that I’ve been meticulously developing. I can’t push my schedule back any more than this. The citizens won’t be able to last much longer. As soon as I entered the lab, I checked the table where the woman was standing over. The vials looked like they were tampered with. My heart pounded in my chest. These were the tests that I’ve been working with. If all of these have been slightly tampered with, it’ll take me another 2 days to remake them all and that would be too late. Tears started to stream down my face.

“Hima?” I heard someone’s voice behind me but I couldn’t focus on that. I was too devastated to even care about who called my name. My tears wouldn’t stop and I felt really bad about what just happened. I suddenly felt a pair of hands holding me up. I wiped the tears out of my eyes and I looked up. I saw Prince Shiro’s concerned face. He must’ve heard the commotion earlier and he immediately came here. I turned to him and hugged him as tight as I could as I let all of my frustrations out. “It will be okay, Hima. They’ve caught the unknown woman.” He informed me. I was comforted by his words a bit. Knowing that they caught the perpetrator made me feel a little bit at ease. I wanted to know who wanted to sabotage my hard work. I wanted to know who made her do what she did. It was okay if the people who wanted to hurt me would just target me, but innocent lives were at stake, I couldn’t just stand by a
Reborn Series The Lady of Miracles: Who are you?
After crying on Prince Shiro’s shoulder, I felt a lot better. We both went over to where the guards kept the woman who came into my lab and tampered with the medicine. When the guards saw me, they all moved aside and cleared the way so I could walk directly towards the cell where the woman was being kept. When I was outside the cell, I noticed she still had her cloak on even though she’s been arrested and her hands were bound together with handcuffs. “Who are you?” I asked her. I saw her hood move a bit, she must’ve looked up at me but I couldn’t see her face due to how long her hood was. I wanted to know who did all of this and why. Were they after the citizens? The Royal Family? Or could they be here to sabotage me? I had a lot of questions and I know only one person can answer me.

“Remove her hood.” I ordered the guards and they complied. They entered the cell and pulled back the hood revealing her face. I didn’t know who she was but she did look familiar to me. She looked at me, there was a mix of fear and anger in her eyes. I could already tell that she did this to ruin me. She was angry at me, but for what reason? I tried thinking of all the enemies I’ve made. There was the incident back in our Empire, and there was that one time I uncovered a slave trade although I doubt the people operating that slave trade knew I was the one that tipped off the guards. I looked at her again and I felt something familiar with her. I just couldn’t put a finger on it. She looked at me and she smirked as if she had the upper hand even though she was caught and now she’s in jail.
Reborn Series The Lady of Miracles: Fear of death
“How does it feel? To kill so many citizens of an Empire that you don’t belong in.” She asked me. I observed her movements and I could tell she was nervous. I knew people like her, they would do anything for revenge but they fear death. I don’t understand why such people even exist. They’re a contradiction of themselves. If you wish to do anything for revenge then you must be prepared for the consequences. Even as she was speaking to me, her voice was trembling and her fingers were fidgeting. “These citizens will live.” I told her. She looked at me for a moment and then she began to laugh. Her laugh was forced and she was clearly trying to act like a villain. I wanted to tell her that this isn’t a novel, pretending to be evil isn’t worth it.

“How are you so sure? I’ve destroyed everything. You have no medicine left to treat the infected citizens. Their deaths will be on your hands and the people of this Empire will turn on you and sentence you to the most gruesome death.” She said confidently. I shook my head seeing as I wouldn’t be able to get a proper answer from her. She wants to humiliate me and make me suffer but for what? I tried to think about where I’ve seen her face before. I knew she was familiar but I just couldn’t remember where I saw her. Before I left, I decided to ask her once more.

“Who told you to do this?” She looked up at me and I glared at her. I wanted her to know that I wouldn’t be easily affected by her words. I don’t care what happens to me but as a doctor, I just can’t stand it if I see people trying to harm others. This woman, she was clearly scared of me, it makes me think that she's probably seen what I can do, for her to fear me like this. If I think about it, the only time I’ve ever shown my capabilities was back in our Empire, when I uncovered the truth behind the Empress’ schemes. Could she be connected to the Empress?
Reborn Series The Lady of Miracles: Suffering
“You will suffer the way we suffered!” She screamed as she aggressively shook the bars of her cell. This further solidifies my suspicions on who she could be working for. If that were the case then maybe the Empress still has her minions out in the open. But for them to follow me all the way here and cause trouble for this Empire, if they were to be found out, I don’t know what will happen. That could really cause a war between the two Empires. I can’t let that happen. “Make sure she doesn’t try anything funny and always keep an eye on her.” I instructed the guards when I was on my way out. As soon as I walked out, Prince Shiro was waiting for me. He immediately walked closer to me and wrapped me in his arms. I felt his warmth and it made me feel slightly better.
