A long time ago, it was thought to be pre-determined before your birth whether you would carry on your life on the path of good or the path of evil. Some people have changed their thoughts on this and say people can change. But even at that, can people really change?

Sierra Fidelis and Leo Volaticus lived their lives together as Nobles in their town of Regium for ten years. On the night of his tenth birthday, Leo mysteriously disappeared. The Knights searched the forest for days, and then weeks, but never found young Leo. Some say that he was stolen by Thieves, or shot with an arrow by Archers, or taken to some strange land by the Mages. Not even Sierra knew where he best friend had run off to.

Eight years passed, and any hope of finding Leo was long gone. Sierra, following through with her dream to be a Knight, chases a Thief into the surrounding forest. After that, she finds Leo's true fate. Would she have been better off accepting he was dead?

So can you really turn good after being evil? How do you know when you've reached your limit?

Ruan Zhu, as the adopted son adopted by the Fang family to show his righteousness, has no ambitions and only likes to read novels and fish.

The male protagonist in the novel had a similar experience to him, and he burst into tears when he saw the ending where the male protagonist died after blocking the gun for the female protagonist. So after realizing that he had traveled through time before the male protagonist was adopted, Ruan Zhu had a brilliant idea. Since the male protagonist became an orphan because of his brother and was later adopted, then as long as his brother does not die, he will always be the eldest young master. He will not depend on others, will not be so inferior that he dare not love, and will not sacrifice his life to save him in the end. The heroine! Ruan Zhu squatted on the tree for a long time. He clearly remembered that the male protagonist's brother was going to be ambushed here, and then he was saved by the traitor, which laid the foundation for trouble. But why didn't he come even though his legs were numb from squatting? Suddenly, the sole of his foot slipped and he fell into the arms of a man. The man smiled with a pair of peach blossom eyes, "Why did you blackmail me?" Later, Ruan Zhu successfully prevented the destruction of the hero's family and successfully returned to his previous life. He read the story and tried his luck. . Then he grabbed the male protagonist's strap and spoke in a serious manner, imitating Zhang Wuji's fucking tone. "A Sheng, you have to remember! The more beautiful a woman is, the better she is at lying!" Suddenly he heard laughter beside him, and after glancing at the man, he added, "Pretty men are better at cheating." Human!" Otherwise, how could he have been deceived for his whole life!

She struggled more than one person should deal with, but she's a fighter and not one to back down. Her twenty-seven years alive have been earned, and she will continue to fight every day for peace. But peace never comes easily. Damon Rossi never cared about anyone or anything until he met Amelia in their youth. He never thought he could care about someone outside of his family, nor did he ever allow himself to, but one fateful day brought them together. They were inseparable until another fateful day tore him away from her without a word for a decade. Now, fate has brought them back together again. When Amelia is hunted down by someone after Damon, she flees to her once best friend for aid and protection. There, she discovers the truth to everything. Why he left, why he came back, and why he's such a hard ass. It is now up to these two stubborn individuals to solve this scheme without budding heads, but when old feelings start to stir with the new ones, they begin to realize they won't be able to walk away from this easily. Danger lurks over them, but is their love more terrifying? That's pretty crazy... **TRIGGER WARNINGS** Contains brief mentions of parental abuse, alcoholism, stalking, suicide, and sexual assault. These are only sprinkled in throughout the book, and will not provide extreme details, but I will provide trigger warnings at the beginning of the chapter, as well as ** at the start and end of the triggering paragraph(s) to inform the reader of exactly when it is happening, for anyone who wants to skip for personal reasons. This book is a mafia book and will contain violence and murder during many chapters. Keep in mind that this is a fictional dark romance novel and is just a creative outlet.
