Chapter 10 ( 87 ) 155 vouchers Tristian's cowardice made Kayla feel nothing but contempt . She couldn't help but mock herself that she actually ended up ruined in her past life for this pathetic coward . A scornful laugh escaped her lips as she asked , " A joke ? I don't find it funny at all ." The smile vanished from Kayla's face , replaced by a chill . The cold in her voice was the kind that seeped into your bones , like a bitter winter wind that refused to let up . Tristian swallowed hard , pushing down the rage and humiliation swelling inside him . He managed a weak smile , asking , " W - What do you want ? " Kayla's eyes sparkled with delight , like a cat toying with a trapped mouse , savoring every second . " Didn't you just say people should face consequences when they screw up ? " she said in a sweet tone . " Well , I'm not gonna make you apologize to me ." Tristian felt a wave of relief wash over him . He thought , ' Knew it . Kayla's always been timid . She's just acting tough now . There's no way she'd actually go through with anything ! But then Kayla's next words dropped like ice water down his spine . " Your hair looked nice too . How about I cut it and keep it as a souvenir ? " Tristian's eyes went wide , panic flaring . " N - No way . Kayla , don't you dare ." But before he could say another word , the cold bite of the scissors snipped across the top of his head . Strands of perfectly styled hair tumbled onto his shoulders , then to the floor . Kayla snipped away without a care , her tone light and teasing . " Better stay real still , Tris . These blades don't have eyes . We both don't want any accidents , right ? " As if on cue , the scissors slipped just enough to nick his scalp . Blood welled up immediately , sliding down his forehead , dripping off his nose . Tristian gasped , breath catching in his throat . The pain lit up across his skull , sharp and raw , but he didn't dare scream . He held perfectly still , even as sweat poured down his face . He was terrified that one more slip , and Kayla might cut him again , or worse . Tristian never expected that Kayla would actually go through with it . He never expected she'd lose it like this . But the sight of blood didn't faze Kayla in the slightest . On the contrary , it seemed to spark something inside her . She mused , " That's why he did it to me in my last life . No matter how I begged , he still shaved my head without hesitation . ' It turns out watching someone suffer and bleed , holding their life in my hands , is intoxicating . Knowing he hates me , but there's nothing he can do , I feels so damn good ! 9:09 Tue , Oct 14 Chapter 10 65 vouchers With that thought , Kayla's movements grew faster . She slashed away at his once - pristine hair , not even pretending to be careful anymore . Tristian's hair flew everywhere . The scissors tore through unevenly , leaving jagged patches . And with every stroke , fresh cuts bloomed across Tristian's scalp . " Kay , Kay , stop . Please stop , " Tristian begged , his voice cracking with desperation . " You can't do this . " He grasped at anything he could think of , clutching onto the last shred of connection between them . " We're siblings , Kay . You're my sister . Let me go . I promise I won't hold this against you ." Kayla's eyes narrowed , and she let out a cold and hollow laugh as she thought , ' You won't hold it against me ? That's rich . I didn't want to hold anything against you earlier either , but you started this . ' And now you expect me to let it go just because you say so ? Do you think your words matter to me ?' Kayla didn't slow down a beat . If anything , her hands moved faster , more aggressive , fueled by a decade of betrayal . " When you were ready to punish me over a complete outsider , you didn't seem to care we were siblings , " she said in an icy voice . In her past life , she'd clung to that bond - believing blood meant something , and believing he'd protect her . And time after time , he used that trust against her . 田
