When I stumbled upon the mysterious book in the imperial garden, my heart skipped a beat. The villain in its pages shares my name-and as I read on, it becomes clear that the story's events are unfolding around me. I'm terrified that I'm nothing more than an imposter, and that the real princess will soon claim her rightful place. If that happens, my fate is sealed: execution as the fake princess. Desperate to rewrite my destiny, I must find a way to alter the book's prophecy before it's too late. Can I, the so-called villain, change the story and escape the tragic end that awaits me?

I Became The Villain's Secretary by J_axnettx_e
23 parts Ongoing Mature
After I suddenly died I possessed the body of what I thought was an extra within a novel. From then on my life was mostly calm, though not fulfilling. Until one day I discovered I wasn't just a background figure; instead I was an insignificant character who'd end up being the villainous Grand Duke's secretary, only to die shortly after being near him! But I had no choice, it was too late to change my fate, so I decided to live as obediently as possible under the orders of the sadist villain. But I still had a plan. Even before the female lead makes her appearance, I will try in every way to make the villain a little more normal, or at least ensure that the two do not meet, so that no one will face a harsh death, including me! And then, after the villain doesn't become obsessed with the female lead and becomes more normal, I will be able to resign and live peacefully. So I just cleared all the suspicions he might have about me in order to not incur his wrath and die like in the novel. * * * "I'll give you a choice." The corner of his lips raised crookedly. Though that smile did not reach his eyes at all. "One, don't resign and stay here forever..." His gaze was enough to unnerve me. "Two, let me kill those who dared to give you the idea of resigning...then don't go and stay here forever." No, haven't I already made sure that the villain has become a little more normal!? ...What the heck is going on!? He shouldn't be like this!

Death's Dance

18 parts Complete

This is the work in progress version of my first book that I plan on publishing. This is only the first book in what I hope will become an expansive world. I must say that these books deal with some heavy subject matter so if you think you shouldn't read it then don't; you have been warned. For those who choose to stay I look forward to hearing back from you and I hope you will stick around to see how the world I have created develops. Without further ado, Death's Dance. Are you really still a princess if your kingdom is in ruins? If there is no one left to rule over but shadows? I was supposed to be their hope. I thought I changed my destiny; and yet, when my time came and they needed me most I failed them, I failed them all. Most of all I failed you brother. You who believed in me. You gave everything to prove that I was more than the curse flowing in me.
