Princess Natasha Nicholai had spent thirteen years drenched in blood, a weapon in her twin sister Dalilah’s hands. Manipulated by Dalilah’s cunning cruelty, Natasha unknowingly carried out the slaughter of hundreds of innocents—including her own brother and dearest friend, Valerian. The weight of her crimes crushed her, but not before they finally caught up to her. In the shadow of the Imperial Palace, her execution was swift and cold—a fitting end for a pawn of betrayal.

But fate wasn’t done with her yet.

Instead of meeting eternal death, Natasha awakens in her own past, months before her fourteenth birthday—the day Dalilah’s control began. Staring at the familiar walls of her childhood, Natasha is haunted by the faces of those she once killed and the blood on her hands. This time, she vows, will be different. No longer will she be Dalilah’s puppet. This time, she will protect her younger brother, shield her friends from the senseless bloodshed, and dismantle her sister’s twisted schemes before they take root.

And this time, she will make Dalilah pay.

But as Natasha seeks her revenge, she uncovers dark secrets that go far beyond her sister’s betrayal. Someone stole her magic when she was only four years old, leaving her vulnerable to Dalilah’s manipulation. Someone—some force—gave her this second chance. But why? And for what purpose?

Her search for answers brings her face to face with Ethan Theodore, a dangerous man cloaked in shadows, whose ruby-red eyes seem to see straight into her soul. He is an enigma, bound to her fate by a thread she can’t quite unravel. Whether he will help her or destroy her remains a mystery.

In ‘The Villainess is Back to Life', Natasha must confront the demons of her past, carve her own path forward, and unravel the web of magic and destiny that binds her. In a world where betrayal is blood-deep and fate is as unforgiving as steel, she will have to decide whether to become the hero of her own story—or embrace the villainy she once lived.

The Villainess is Back to Life

We are in 400K, guys, thank you so much.

I'm currently writing the final chapters of the 1/3 main parts of the story, it's gonna be a lot, then when I'm done, I'll mass release it for you. It won't take long, and it's be good. I hope you'll like it too.

Again, thank you for the 400k, I'm sincerely grateful to all of you. It means a lot!

I've picked up some editing skills in the past months, and I also learned how to use AI to produce character arts. It can be tricky and takes some time, especially to find an AI that is actually able to help out. Thanks to that, I was able to finally bring the main characters of the story to "life", in the best way.

I made most of them as they will permanently be after the time skip, that will soon happen, where Natasha will be 18 and turning 19 years old. The only one I didn't made like that was Valerian, yet, and some key characters that will come into the story after the time skip. When that happens, I'll add them, and adult Valerian too, who is already made.

You can see them in the "Characters" section in the main page of the novel, however, you can't really see them well there, so, I'll pinpoint all the characters whose art I made here, and I'll comment on them with the picture, so you can take a better look, and comment if you want to.

Just click in the comment of each one and you will find them.

※ Grand Duchess Cleo Ludwick Nicholai

※ Late Grand Duchess Candace White-Wood Nicholai

※ 2nd Imperial Princess Adelyn Caspian

※ 3rd Imperial Prince Christopher Caspian

※ 4th Royal Prince Donovan Caspian

※ 5th Royal Princess Evangeline Caspian

※ 6th Royal Princess Annelise Caspian

※ Empress Consort Francesca Kiesling Caspian

※ 2nd Imperial Wife, 1st Queen Olivia Hoffstad Caspian

※ 3rd Imperial Wife, 2nd Queen Zara Lachlainn Caspian

※ Archbishop Jeroen Van der Westhuizen

※ Imperial Princess Anushka Meredithian

I'll add arts for other characters in the future!

In case anyone wants to learn how to make it too, here it is what I use to make them.

I used two platforms for the AI arts and two different ones to edit the arts I generated, so they would fit exactly how I envision the characters.

See you soon with the mass release, babes.
