“If I am going to die anyway, I would rather be a villainess or turn the story upside down,” Yeong-ja vowed vengefully.

Kim Yeong-ja was an avid reader who had read thousands upon thousands of books. She had often wished to be transmigrated as the main character of her favorite novels.

But one day, she suddenly woke up as the best friend of the female lead of a badly written novel where she had to die so the female lead and male lead could have their happy ending.

“Why do I have to die for them to be together?”

Yeong-ja was furious that of all the good books that she had read, she had to be transmigrated in the novel 'Loving My Forever’ where all other characters were made merely to make the main character look good regardless of plot holes.

Since she was a patient reader, Yeong-ja continued to read the whole novel despite how bad it was. She also wanted to know what would happen to the female lead’s best friend named Stella. Only to realize that Stella was killed off in the end.  

Now that she was Stella and knows of the future, Yeong-ja planned to change it if she could; even if she had to make the author furious.

First, she had to make sure she survives her death flag. But how will she do it when upon transmigrating, she finds that Stella was already dying?

Join Yeong-ja in her efforts to live and survive as a character inside a book. Would she be able to change her fate or was her destiny set in stone the way the author wanted?

Reversing Predestined Fate

If something happened and the wolf ran away with Stella in tow, they wouldn't be able to catch up and protect her. They cannot allow her to be out of their sight.

Further, they were allies but Zafir still had his reservations about leaving Stella with them. They might underestimate how fragile Stella was and accidentally allow her to be in harm's way.

Moreover, what if the wolf bit Stella? The wolf had allowed Stella to pet her, but Zafir couldn't take chances and put her at risk.

Zafir was also worried about lice. Stella's skin was very sensitive so all their horses were well taken care of to not have any lice. Who knows if the wolves had some and would bite Stella? She would end up red and itchy in places which might lead to other problems.

They couldn't allow her to be uncomfortable and possibly get sick or have allergies because of that.

As such, they allowed Stella to walk.
