The Butterfly's Death

Felissa looked at herself in the mirror and gazing her appearance. 

"You look beautiful, My Lady," the servant complimented and clasped her hand together.

"Ah! Thank you!" Felissa grinned and caressed her lips, which had red lipstick.

"It's time," Renata's voice was heard by the door. She had a serious expression, which made Felissa shiver.

"Mother," Felissa stated and looked down.

Renata walked inside and gestured for the servant to get out. She stood before Felissa and looked at her appearance to see if it had passed her taste.

"Remember to find a decent noble. It would be better if he is rich," Renata reminded her daughter of her duty.

"Mother, what if my true mate is not a nobleman?" Felissa asked slowly. It took her a lot of courage to say those words.

"You ungrateful child! No! I will reject him for your sake!" Renata shouted and raised her hand to slap Felissa, but a cough stopped her.
