I was supposed to be reading the novel. Not waking up inside it. And definitely not as *her*. Not the heroine. Not the saintess. Not even as the side character..... But as the Villianess......

She was never meant to be seen. A simple girl with quiet eyes and a hidden past... until destiny placed her in front of the Prince of Bikaner. One moment changed everything. When an assassin's blade came for the prince, she stepped between death and royalty without hesitation, saving the heir to the throne with her own life on the line. Overnight, the mysterious girl became the obsession of the nation. The media chased her name. The world demanded her identity. But she asked for only one thing- to remain hidden. Yet fate had other plans. The moment the royal family finally stood before her, silence consumed the palace. Because the girl standing before them was not a stranger. She carried the same face... the same eyes... the same presence as the legendary Rani Sahiba-the queen who once protected the kingdom with her love and sealed it with a curse centuries ago. A curse that was never broken. A love that never died. She was his queen in their previous life. And destiny had returned her to him once again. In a story woven with royalty, forgotten promises, danger, rebirth, and a love that defied lifetimes, the Prince of Bikaner must uncover the truth before history repeats itself... and loses her forever.

NOTE: Complete at 120 chapters. Continues in Book Two: The Long War of Evelyn de Harcourt. She died at twenty-four. Evelyn de Harcourt was dragged to the execution block broken, burned, and stripped of everything she had ever been. The last thing she saw before the blade fell was a smile - satisfied, entertained - from the one person who had always wanted her destroyed. She wasn't innocent. She knows that. The cruelties she committed, the people she hurt, the isolation she built around herself like armour - all of it handed her enemies exactly what they needed to finish her. But knowing what you did wrong doesn't make dying for it any less terrible. She has been given something she didn't earn and doesn't deserve. A second chance. This time, Evelyn de Harcourt will not be the girl who burns every bridge and calls it strength. This time, she will not give them the weapons. This time, she will not make it easy. She remembers everything. Every mistake. Every cruelty. Every move her enemies made before she even knew they were enemies. Let them try again. Dark fantasy. Villainess regression. Reverse harem. Not a clean redemption story.
