They called it an accident. The darkness that devoured her home, the tragedy that took her parents - all wrapped in whispered pity and silent relief. But for the young daughter left behind, it was the beginning of her descent into hell. Adopted by distant relatives who wore kindness like masks, she grew up as little more than a shadow within their house - unloved, unwanted, unseen. Her stepmother's hatred was venomous, her stepsister's laughter cruel. Denied an education, denied affection, she learned to survive on silence and obedience. Then came the Duke - handsome, powerful, the man promised to her stepsister. When his eyes strayed toward the forgotten girl, admiration blooming where disgust should have lived, the family's hatred ignited into something fatal. They killed her quietly, as if snuffing out a candle no one would miss. But death did not take her. She awoke again - in the body of her seven-year-old self, the day after the tragic accident that destroyed her family. Time had folded backward, granting her a cruel gift: memory. This time, she will not weep. This time, she will not kneel. With the knowledge of every betrayal and every grave that waits for her, she will twist fate itself - and turn the game that once destroyed her into her masterpiece.

I was bred to obey. I obeyed when they gave me to a man I barely knew. I obeyed when my cousin took my husband's bed. I obeyed even when I carried his child. Then he burned me alive. I woke up months before the pyre. I found myself back with the same husband and the same traitors, but I remember every detail of what they did to me. This time, I am not the victim. I am the architect of their downfall. Caelan Vorenthal is my husband's greatest rival. He is a shadow in a court of vipers and the only man who saw the truth when everyone else stayed silent. Now he is offering protection. An alliance. A connection that feels less like safety and more like a threat to the walls I have built. Can I trust the one man who could destroy everything? Or is he the weapon I never knew I needed? I was bred to obey. Now I choose who burns. ____________________________________________ The Details - A second chance fueled by the memory of fire - The silent marriage and the loud betrayal - The rival ally who should not be trusted - A heroine reborn to take back her agency - Tense attraction that feels like a risk - Slow burn romance and high-stakes secrets - Spicy scenes and intense emotional payoffs - A fight for survival and the ultimate revenge

They once called her the Mad Dog of the South - the spoiled, short-tempered daughter of Duke Mortane. Feared by nobles, hated by the people, and foolishly obsessed with the Crown Prince who never loved her. Betrayed by her uncle. Framed by a false saint. Abandoned by the man she destroyed herself for. She died cursing her own foolishness... until the gods granted her one final mercy- to return to the past, one year before her ruin. This time, she'll play their game with her eyes open. She'll protect what's hers, crush those who deceived her, and rise from the ashes of her former self. Because this time... the villainess doesn't seek redemption-she rewrites her story.

Six months. That's all the time I have before my head rolls onto the executioner's block. Dying choking on spicy instant noodles was a pathetic way to go, but waking up as Ilse de Varannes? That's a death sentence. In the original novel, Ilse isn't the heroine. She isn't even the villainess. She's the brainless, loyal sidekick the girl destined to be butchered just for being the "troublemaker" (instigator) of her best friend's shitty schemes. I used to be a Public Relation staff. My entire life was damage control, narrative-spinning, and cleaning up messes. So, I have a plan: tame my impulsive best friend, dodge the Crown Prince like the plague, and ghost the imperial palace before the military cleans house. Simple, right? Wrong. My strategy didn't account for the Duke d'Alençon. The Grand Commander of the military. Brother of Prince, The cold-blooded monster who's literally supposed to sign my death warrant in the final chapter. He's not ignoring me like he's "supposed" to. He's cornering me in dark hallways. He's gripping my wrists tight enough to bruise. He's looking at me with those damn icy eyes like he knows exactly what I'm up to and he finds it fascinating. "You're in too deep, Ilse. And I don't have the habit of letting go of what I've already claimed."

As I was about to leave his arms hugged me tightly from the back. He breathed on my neck roughly as if craving for me like a madman. "You can't leave after making me like this!" He growled. "I'll leave when I want to" I answered calmly so as to not awaken the beast inside him. But in response he only hugged my body tighter like I was the most precious jewel in the world. "I can't do that! I don't know what I'll do myself if you abandon me right now! I go crazy when I don't see you even for a few hours and you want me to let you go??" I was at a loss of words. This man was completely insane, but I had no room for complaining... Because I'm the one who made him like this. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ An ordinary woman is gets transmigrated to the 18+ webnovel she was reading. She is reborn in the body of the cruel villainess who brainwashed the villain to love and obey her. To make matters worse she dies at the hands of the villain at the end of the novel. Determined to survive, she tries to free him from his brainwashing. But something is strange? Why doesn't he change even after the brainwashing is undone...? ***Story and cover belongs to me.

This novel can be categorized as "he falls first and he falls harder" . . "Did you really think that after all that you've done to me, I would simply let you go, Rosalie? You might as well go to the Devil himself because otherwise, I will definitely find you. No matter what." One day, Wang Meiling, an ordinary office worker who likes to read romance fantasy books, wakes up in the body of Rosalie Ashter, a minor villainess in the R-rated fantasy novel that she was reading before this weird transmigration. As expected of the plot, Rosalie is supposed to die at the hands of her crazy and abusive brother Raphael, thus, armed with the detailed knowledge of the original story, Meiling is set to save the tragic villainess whose body she is now possessing and approaches Duke Damien Dio, the story's male lead who is suffering from the "Acme fever" curse. She offers him a one-year contract relationship, promising to help him relieve his suffering in exchange for his protection from the Ashter family and a hefty payment afterward. Although skeptical at first, Damien agrees to sign the contract, but when the time finally comes for Rosalie to leave the Duke, she realizes that ending their relationship might not be as easy as she thought.

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.

She once lived a life of tragedy, a princess scorned, unloved, and betrayed by the very people who should have protected her. The only true royal blood of the kingdom, yet treated as if she were invisible. Her husband fell into the arms of her adopted stepsister, a girl worshipped by the court despite having no royal lineage. A manipulative maid whispered poison into every ear, her own brother cared only for status and applause, and her parents, the king and queen, looked upon her not as their daughter, but as a blemish on their throne. Surrounded by deception, belittled and broken, she lived a life of silent suffering until the day poison ended her story. But fate was not done with her. She awakens in the past, fourteen again, returned to the moment before everything fell apart. This time, she will not be the obedient princess they used as a pawn. This time, she will not be overlooked. With the memories of her cruel future and the pain that once destroyed her, she vows to rewrite her fate, expose their lies, and reclaim the crown that was always meant to be hers. She was the forgotten princess. The erased successor. The omitted heir. And now she has returned.

Princess Sabrina died with blood on her hands and regret in her heart. Betrayed by the man she loved. Destroyed by the friend she trusted. And haunted by the truth she realized far too late. Her kingdom fell into ruin. Her parents were murdered. And Alexander-the cold, feared Duke she spent her life misunderstanding-died protecting her until his very last breath. Only when she witnessed his torture... Only when his crimson eyes rolled across the dungeon floor... Did Sabrina finally understand. The man she feared never betrayed her. He loved her more than his own life. When Sabrina opens her eyes once more, she finds herself back in the past-before the kingdom's destruction, before the betrayal, and before Alexander's tragic death. This time, she refuses to repeat the same mistakes. She will stay away from the charming Marquis Charles. She will no longer trust sweet lies wrapped in beautiful words. And most importantly- She will protect the man who quietly loved her in every lifetime. But while Sabrina struggles to change fate, another person begins remembering the past as well. Jennifer. The illegitimate daughter who once helped destroy the kingdom now returns filled with regret and obsession. But this time, things are different. Because the story is no longer unfolding the way it once did. As political conspiracies, hidden betrayals, and dangerous enemies begin surfacing from the shadows, Sabrina slowly realizes that changing destiny is far more difficult than she imagined. And perhaps the most frightening thing of all- Is learning how deeply Alexander has always loved her. Even in the life where she destroyed him.

𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗜𝗦 𝗠𝗬 𝗢𝗥𝗜𝗚𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗦𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗬!! ✦━━━━━━༺༻━━━━━━✦ ➥ 𝑰𝒏 𝒘𝒉𝒊𝒄𝒉: I got reincarnated into a novel as the stupid villainess that every reader hated to the core. Basically, the most unloved character, even by the author. Santina Rubelia del León gets killed by her yandere fiancé who is also the male lead. Hahhh... It could be worse, right? WRONG! Why does it have to be a BL novel, for god's sake? The trashy male lead falls in love with the crown prince of another nation and causes the biggest war history has ever seen. "Santina, I want you to be my Empress." WAIT, WHAT? Why now? Does he want to use me to his advantage? Yeah, that's probably it! But then...? "I'll start a war." E-eh? What is this? "I'll kill him and destroy his entire kingdom. In fact, I'll erase it from the map, so... look at me... I beg you." Is he completely ignoring the crown prince? But why and for what reason, all of a sudden? Let me go, you crazy punk! I'M THE VILLAINESS! "...." He broke my other leg as well. When they say Angels have wings they mean they have legs. For humans legs are like wings. They take you places. This devil had broken my wings. ✦━━━━━━༺༻━━━━━━✦ 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗹𝘆 𝘂𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀!! ➥ mature themes and language ➥ status: finished! ♔ ───────── ♔ 𝑯𝑰𝑮𝑯𝑬𝑺𝑻 𝑹𝑨𝑵𝑲𝑰𝑵𝑮𝑺 (so far): ♔ ───────── ♔ #1 in maleyandere #1 aristocracy #1 crazy #1 reincarnated #1 noble #2 pastife #7 obsession #7 yandere #14 reincarnation
