I hissed angrily

Kayla POV. I didn't think that I would come back to life. My last memory lingers on a time when that strange man fed me blood to drink. As my body regained consciousness, a powerful force rushed through my body. I felt as if every part of my body had been reorganized all over again. I didn't just come to life; the injuries on my body actually healed in that instant. It was so shocking, and I was so excited. I slowly got up from the ground, and I saw a man standing not far away with his back to me. The man's figure was straight, a valuable dark suit well-trimmed his figure; a pair of clean leather shoes in such a primeval forest surprisingly clean without a trace of dust. "Did you resurrect me?" I inquired nervously. "No, you're dead!" The man turned his back to me, his voice without a trace of emotion, completely different from the gentle and nervous tone before. His words made me freeze. Was I dead? Then what was I now? I didn't understand what he meant, nor did I know what was about to happen. Fear of the unknown made me tense up. The man slowly turned around, and on his pale skin were in-depth features, a face comparable to that of the Greek gods that took my breath away. Before I could fully react, the man was already standing in front of me. Just a second before, he was standing roughly a few meters away from me. "I have enough blood to bring you back to life, but again, you don't count as alive." His hand grabbed my neck, and his lips were pressed against my ear. It was clearly a very ambiguous position, but his tone was as cold as a dead body. "Who ...... are you, anyway? Why am I alive and not really alive?" I asked with a trembling voice. I tried desperately to maintain my composure, but the moment he approached me, the blood in my body instantly froze up. I didn't want to tremble, but I couldn't control my voice, my body. This man reeked of danger, and fear had invaded my body. "The man who pushed you off the cliff, how do you want him to die?" The man's ghost-like voice rang in my ears. He did not answer my question but instead asked his own question. The man? Was he talking about Henry? My memory of Henry was still stuck at the moment when he pushed me off the cliff ...... How did I want Henry to die? If possible, I wanted to transform into a fierce beast and tear his body to pieces with those sharp teeth! I was completely immersed in my vision and did not answer the man's question in front of me. Without waiting for my answer, the corners of his lips lifted in a evil smile: "There is a way that you will definitely like." After saying that, he took hold of my waist and instantly moved in front of a hotel room. This room was specially booked by me a week ago for Henry's birthday party. Henry knew this, and today also happened to be his birthday. The door of the room was not closed very tightly. I was standing at the door, but I could clearly hear the sound inside the door. At that moment, the sound of talking came from inside the door. "Henry, do you mean it? That uninteresting woman has really died? So much money, it's all ours!" It was the voice of a strange woman. The woman continued excitedly: "That woman should have died a long time ago. Do you know how much I was hurt when you were with that woman!" "We had to put up with it for the money." "That was a very well thought out plan. I heard that the cliff was 100 feet high. You can fall off and not die or be half dead. And the bottom of the mountain is the most isolated section; a person will not go there. By the time the woman's body was found, it would have already been eaten by wild animals, leaving only a pile of bones!" Henry finished laughing. Henry said smugger and smugger: "You can not imagine that woman how stupid. I just held her hand when crossing the street, cooked her dinner a few times, and prepared a so-called surprise with some cheap stuff on her birthday. She thinks I love her ...... How stupid!" "You know, the funny thing is before I pushed her off the cliff, she actually said that every day with me was wonderful! My God, she was the best girl I've ever lied to." Henry's words completely angered me. I never thought that Henry was with me for my substantial manuscript and royalty money! Meanwhile, he was lying in the hotel I had booked with another woman! Anger burned up like a flame from the bottom of my heart and grew stronger. All my emotions were magnified to the extreme at that moment, especially my anger. I had never been so out of control, and all my reason was drowned in it. I kicked open the door with great force, and from the time I entered the room to the time I picked Henry up, it took no more than a second. It was an inhuman speed, but I didn't even realize it. My full attention was focused on Henry's face. The moment he saw me, his face was covered with horror. "Kayla ...... you ...... how did you ......" I knew what Henry would say; it was just "how come you're still alive" or something boring like that. I grunted, put my face close to his, and said, "I disappoint you; I'm not dead." "But you're dead!" I hissed angrily.
