After unknowingly returning to her original world, she awoke in the frail body of a girl she recognized-a semi-villainess from a novel fated to die by her own son's hand. Unwilling to face such an end again, she resolved to sever her engagement with the crown prince, certain he despised her. Yet her sudden boldness-her unflinching gaze and daring words-shook the palace. Those who had once dismissed her began to watch closely; those who scorned her now whispered with intrigue. Prince Acacius, who had regarded her as nothing more than a pawn, found himself captivated. The more she slipped from his control, the more obsession rooted in him-and when he saw his half-brother Theodore with her, jealousy twisted into poison. Theodore had never cared for Lavinia, but her sharp tongue and strange humor pierced through his indifference. Seeing Acacius's temper flare whenever she laughed only spurred his amusement-and his resolve to claim her. Then came the saint Clotilde. She concealed a zeal no scripture could tame. Unlike the princes, her desire was not rivalry but possession. She wanted Lavinia all for herself. Even her brothers, who had long stood at the edges of her life, now hovered near, unsettled by the fire that had awakened in her. What had changed? Why did the world suddenly turn around her? Lavinia herself did not know. She only knew this: she would not bow to the cruel fate the novel had written. This time, she would carve her own path. TW UN-EDITED

Title: Revenge After Rebirth Author: Ashborn15 She died once - forgotten, betrayed, and discarded. But in her second life, she'll make them all remember. At the age of two, Itzel Finley was trafficked away from her real family and later adopted by the Finleys - a wealthy family grieving their lost daughter. Her presence was only tolerated because of a shared birthmark... and the fact that their grandfather willed his entire estate to her. To the outside world, Itzel was a Finley heiress. But behind closed doors, she was barely tolerated - hated for receiving wealth meant for their real daughter. At twenty-three, she was betrayed by the two people she trusted most: her adoptive sister and her boyfriend. And when she died, she thought it was the end. Until she opened her eyes again - reborn, with every memory intact. This time, she plays the role of the naïve daughter. Quiet. Obedient. Harmless. So harmless that the Finleys, thinking she's still useful, arrange her engagement to a ruthless billionaire, Kerian Ashford, to save their crumbling business. But behind the gentle eyes of the girl they once discarded is a mind sharper than any sword. Now known in secret as: Mildset - the world's most dangerous hacker, Doctor Mira - a miracle-working online physician, and Founder of Heavenly Guild Hospital - a silent empire hidden behind false names, Itzel begins her slow, silent vengeance. But what happens when Kerian - cold, powerful, and suspicious - starts to fall for the girl with secrets in her eyes? And worse... what if she starts to fall for him too?

Adelaide Greyard was born cursed. Her crimson eyes marked her as an omen in an empire that feared what it did not understand. Though a legitimate daughter of a marquisate, she was unloved, unwanted, and quietly tormented her entire life. Weak, soft-hearted, and desperate for affection, Adelaide clung to the one man betrothed to her-only to be publicly humiliated, betrayed, and cruelly rejected. When the man she loved told her she was disgusting and pitiful, Adelaide chose death. But death was not the end. Reborn with her memories intact-and power already awakening-Adelaide laughs at the foolish girl she once was. This time, she will not beg for love or approval. Bound once more to the Aragon Dukedom, she makes a decision that shocks the empire: she refuses her former fiancé and instead asks to marry Kael Aragon, his uncle-a battle-hardened duke more than twice her age. Only then does Alexus Aragon begin to see her. The tears are gone. The weakness is gone. The woman who once loved him without restraint now looks at him with cold indifference-and it unsettles him. Attraction follows regret. Regret turns to obsession. For the first time, Alexus wants Adelaide... and for the first time, she wants nothing from him. He clings. He schemes. He tries to reclaim what he once scorned. But Adelaide does not turn back. This is not a story of forgiveness. It is a story of refusal. Of desire awakened too late. And of a woman who chooses herself-while the man who broke her watches her slip beyond his reach. Some loves are ungodly. Some regrets are eternal.
