“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

Erick understood now why Emperor Victor and the former emperors of Solis Nigellus always maintained a close relationship with Valyenor.

He once thought it was just part of the legends. He once thought what his twin brother and Emperor Victor had been telling him years ago were accounts blinded by extreme adoration of Duke Henry.

But Erick knew now after seeing Henry so furious and ready for war a few days ago. He was so different to the Duke Henry that Erick knew.

Henry already had a cold scary aura all the time. He also looked so formidable during the duel with the King of Valencia. But he looked so deadly and terrifying after he saw his adopted son covered in burns and learned that his only daughter could have been the one in such state.

Even if Zafir was not his blood, the duke clearly loved the young man so much to be enraged enough to declare war on the Nigellus household without talking to the elders of Valyenor.
