Athena_Varinder

Falling for his warm touch despite his usual coldness, she loved him only to be disappointed and betrayed in the end.

When love turns to darkness, it festers to be poisonous and consumes the soul.

The naïve Arabella evolved.

***

“Thank you for becoming my wife,” was her cold husband’s last words before he died, coupled with a smile that had never before graced his lips. Not on their wedding day. And not even at the birth of their only child.

Emperor Ferdinand, someone Arabella loved so much, killed their son. 

She became a villainess and vowed revenge for her beloved child. 

For a decade, she used everything she could to make Ferdinand pay.

Until finally… he fell to ruin!

With her revenge complete, Arabella's life soon ended with her dead husband in her arms.

But fate wasn’t done playing with her. 

All of a sudden, she was back two decades ago right after their wedding.

Was it a curse or a blessing?

It didn’t matter. Because there is only one thing she needed to do.

“I will ruin you in this lifetime too!” 

This was her hateful promise to herself upon realizing she was reborn.

But in her second life, Arabella was unexpectedly bestowed a gift to uncover the truth.

Who was wrong and who was right? 

Only time will tell.

Reborn as a Mind-Reading Empress

"Humph. You better not get back on those words if I suddenly ask you something unreasonable someday," Arabella warned, trying to act tough.

"Yes, of course. As long as it's something you'd like to try, we can do it," Ferdinand's eyes lit up even more.

Arabella did not want to trample on his fun but the way he was wording it made it seem like she was the naughty one here when he was the one who thought about it out of the blue.

"Aren't you the one who's interested in it since you keep saying it? Do you actually want me to do something like that to you?" Arabella countered.

"Do I? Hmm…" Ferdinand seriously pondered over it.

'Why is he really thinking about it?'

[I'm not sure if I would be able to hold back my strength and not free myself. But being unable to touch her when I want to, I'm not sure I would be able to step myself. I guess I would only know if we try it.]
