Anna's world shatters when she discovers her husband's infidelity and his secret desire for a child. She was consumed by despair, and blaming it on her infertility, Anna contemplates ending her life. But fate intervenes, and a mysterious system transports her to an abandoned storybook world.

In this realm, Anna is bound to a demigod, Kael, who rules with an iron fist, crushing the spirits of the people. The system's task is clear: Anna must navigate this treacherous world, training and learning to defeat Kael, now her husband. 

With each step, she'll earn real-life currency, offering a chance to escape her painful past when she returns to earth.

But as Anna embarks on this journey, she's forced to confront her own darkness when an unexpected twist complicates her quest: she begins to develop feelings for Kael, the very man she's destined to kill.

Torn between her loyalty to the system and her growing attachment to Kael, Anna must navigate the lines between reality and fantasy. Will she find a way to defy the system's expectations and forge her own path, or will she succumb to the fate that's been laid out for her?

“I mean, what am I going back to earth for?”

System: Falling For A Demi-god That I Am Meant To Kill

"No," Anna finally responded after what seemed like an eternity of awkward silence. Knowing that he is a demigod, she was worried that he might read her mind, or detect that she wasn't telling the truth, but she still stuck to her response.

"I am not." She added, her tone slightly more confident than the last time,

"I just wonder what you would do to a lady who couldn't have a child for reasons that weren't entirely her fault." She explained, keeping her eyes on the mirror that hung on the wall just opposite her.

"I sure hope that this... lady is aware that the only reason that I took her a wife was so that she would bear me a son. If she knew she was barren, wouldn't it make sense that she told me earlier? I guess you can agree with me, Anna, that any actions I take against her would be justified."

Anna was silent, she wanted to end this conversation and hated herself for bringing up something that affected her so emotionally.
