VITHA (The Cursed Woman) Book 1

I was kneeling down in front of her. Her name is Themis, the Goddess of justice, she has a right in judgment. She stared at me with pitying eyes as I stared at her with lifeless eyes.

It feels like, I am a living dead.

He betrayed me and I regret the day I met him, the day when I started to love him.

I regret loving such a human like him. I hate myself for being his allies before.

"You commit a sin, Vitha."

I am!

I bend my head and didn't speak. There was no forgiveness to the sin I've done. This is my fate and I can't do anything to change it.

"You deceived Aruru, the goddess of creation. You even stole her mud and saliva."

"I-i'm sorry."

That's all I can say to her.

"No matter how many times you apologize, you cannot deny a fact that you have committed a sin. It's a sin to create a creature, a creature that is evil and frightening. "

If there is one thing I don’t regret, it

is the creation of him.

I didn’t answer Themis, instead I stared into her eyes with a trace of resistance.

I know, no matter how they try to against they can do nothing because this is a law, a law is always been a law. No one can break it, even if you are a God or a Goddess.

"You even killed a thousand innocent mortal."

Innocent? They are not!

Even him!

"As a retribution and punishment you will be punished, you will be blinded! No one will want to see your eyes. No one will live with every glance you make. No one will love you without dying. A dead eyes were given to you as a sign of sinner. You will be the Lady with a curse of glimpse. "

I cried out as the sudden heat around my whole eyes, it was like it was burning, it's hurt! It really hurts! I can't take it anymore.

Blood was dripping from my eyes.

"AAAAHHHHHHH!"

There is some force surrounding me.

I can't stand the pain!

I stood up and kept screaming. It was as if my personality was being torn apart.

"You will die, Vitha and be resurrected. Your name Vitha is coming from Vita which is means life. Upon your resurrection, the chapter of your punishment will begin. They will call you a lot of names from others. The Vhita we knew, which is many admirers, will be the Vhita that people will fear and shun. "

"AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

At the same time, smoke came out of my body and my body stiffened before I fell and lost my life. Before I fainted, I even heard the arrival of a woman. I even heard their conversation.

I smiled, T-thank y-you.

"Mother?"

Themis turned to Astrea, her daughter. Astrea is the goddess of justice.

"Why Astrea?"

"Isn't your punishment too cruel?"

She smiled sadly at her daughter. "I don't want to, but I can't do anything."

"Mother, maybe I can do something else? I don't want this kind of punishment for Vitha, we know she's a good person, but she just loves the wrong person."

"I know, but law is a law."

Astrea bit her lip so hard. "But I am the goddess of justice Mother, and I cannot allow this."

Her Mother smiled at her and hugged Astrea before whispering.

"You can do anything you want, Astrea. After all! Just like you said, you are the Goddess of justice."

"I don't want my Father to be angry with me but, I don't want this to mean that I can't do anything for Vitha."

Themis broke away with a hug from her daughter. "I know, I'm ready to face the punishment when that day comes."

"I'll be, Mother." Astrea smiled before raising her hand to heaven and pleading. "In the full moon, in the covering of darkness with clarity, in the fierce winds, in the thunder and lightning that serve as light, and in the showers of rage, the unexpected will happen. She is Vhita, well reign. The cursed will end in the right path you have chosen. You will suffer in exchange for your freedom. Life in exchange for your life. Vitha eris a maledictione bestowed (Vitha will be free from the curse bestowed). "

The loss of Vitha's human body blew loudly and with thunder.

'Vitha, I hope that one day doesn't come when you repeat your mistake again'
