Despite her past, she's the most loving, caring, and the most genuine person someone could've ever meet. Her life only revolves around her Dad, academic, her two friends, and her love in books and modelling, no men, literally NO MEN, until... She met a guy who's two years older than her, not just a random guy, but that guy featured everything she's looking for in a man. He's Conrad Brailé Grant, an Oncologist. In the heat of Spain, their connection grows into something deep. Conrad becomes her anchor, the only person who truly understands the weight of her loss. But when the time comes for Venice to return to her hometown and reclaim her old life, she finds herself paralyzed. The home she once loved is calling her back, but the "Velvet Trap" Conrad has built around her heart is too tight to break. Can she really leave the man who saved her, or is she destined to stay forever in a life that isn't hers?

( VILLAINESS #1 ) Feared in boardrooms and hated in silence, 26-year-old CEO Evelyn Vireaux built an empire with an iron will and a cruel tongue. But no amount of power or wealth could stop the truth-she was dying. Terminal illness claimed her body, but not her soul. When Evelyn opens her eyes again, it's not in a hospital bed-but in a different world, inside the body of Selene Astera, the frail and neglected daughter of Duke Astera. Mocked by servants, scorned by her siblings, and invisible to society, Selene was as powerless as Evelyn had once been ruthless. Now reborn in a world of nobility and magic, the soul of a cold-blooded CEO simmers beneath Selene's soft smile. They wanted a weak girl to ignore. They'll get a villainess they'll never forget.
