"Luck and gifts you will have it all.
Everything you desire and put your mind on.
But that one craving, you will never own.
As fate and the gods will collude to derail your goal."

Lyrica was ecstatic when she found out that after finishing a reverse harem royal romance novel, she woke up in the body of her favorite character who shares the same name as her! Even more so when she met face to face with her adored (bias) character--the attractive General Calais Parcell!

However, soon, she finds out that every human in the new world hates her even without a valid reason! Not one, not even her own parents and siblings!

Being loved and well-liked by everyone in her previous life, watch her struggle in this new world where everyone hates and wants to kill her!


Snippets:
“You should be ashamed of yourself, Calais! Have you ever... Have you ever taken a look inside of you and wondered what kind of person you are?!”

“No, Lyrica. I can see how you look at me, and I know that I am not that bad after all.”

"But all I see is a charming mask! And no matter how beguiling that lovely mask looks, once you take that off, inside, you are still what you are, someone hollow and empty, with no principles other than what other people project on you!"

The Hundred Years Villainess

I freeze as I watch the expression on his face. If there is such a thing as a face of a killer, Calais is wearing that expression now. It's as if he is venting out his anger and it was Orlin who happens to be around.

I hear the glugging sound from Orlin, and I see the scowl on Calais' face. He is drowning him!

I should be more wary of him. But when I find the strength, I run towards him, towards the water, and finally, approaching him, I grab his arm, which feels like hot steel.

"Calais! You are not in a war! Snap out of it!" I glance at Orlin. Despite my loathing for him, my love for Calais takes center-stage.

So, I reach out and grab Calais' wrists in an iron grip. My magic courses through me as warmth begins to spread from my palms into his skin. I lock eyes with him as I raise the heat in an attempt to loosen his grip, for him to realize that I am here with him.
