Evika Vourdillon was known for her beauty, grace, and above all, her love. She gave up her life to bring her son into the world, and even in death, her heart remained with him. Her husband, Theron, promised to protect their child, Lucius, but grief turned to neglect. He remarried a stunning woman named Deidamia-beautiful, but cold-hearted.

Lucius, who resembled his mother so much, became a target of jealousy and cruelty. Evika, as a spirit, could only watch-unable to hold him, unable to stop the pain.

But one day, something changes. Evika wakes up and realizes she's alive again... inside Deidamia's body.

She finally has the chance to protect her son, but Lucius is terrified of her. To him, she is still the woman who hurt him.

Now trapped in the body of the one her son fears the most, Evika must find a way to save Lucius, earn back his trust, and uncover the truth behind Theron's broken promise. But how can she be a mother again when her child no longer sees her as one?

Ophelia by Grace63662
38 parts Complete
"I'd jump after you into the pit of fire if I had to, Ophelia. Don't question that, and don't you ever ask me not to." ________________ Lilia thought she knew loneliness. She thought she understood grief. Haunted by a painful past, she kept running-from city to city, never looking back. All she wanted was a place where no one knew her. Then Dominic Brooks walked into her life. Chaotic, intense, and impossible to ignore, he and his makeshift family threatened to shatter every wall she'd built. But what unsettles her most isn't Dominic's presence-it's the way he looks at her, like he already knows her. The way he calls her Ophelia, as if it means something. And the way, despite everything, he feels like home. _______________ "Ophelia." "Ophelia, please." Isn't it funny? How this nickname works so perfectly. The world pushed Ophelia to the edge of her sanity, throwing her into the inevitability of a tragic ending. Here I am, facing the same fate. But no writer will engrave my name in history. No painting will be named after me. I'm just another insignificant part of the big book of life. Just another iteration of Ophelia.
