Summary
Reborn into a novel as the daughter of its most notorious villainess, I arrived just in time to witness my mother’s tragic end. Imprisoned and awaiting execution for her wicked deeds, she clung to a love that would never return. As her small, rough hand intertwined with mine, I offered a final comfort: ‘Don’t wait for him, Mom. Sleep now.’ With her peaceful passing, the novel’s ‘happy’ second act was set to begin – a joyous adventure for the main characters, but a swift, brutal death for me, her unwanted child. I refuse to be a mere footnote in someone else’s story. I won’t die. And I certainly won’t let this narrative unfold as planned. If survival means embracing a little wickedness, then so be it. This life, constantly on the brink of demise, is mine to rewrite. It’s time to turn the tables and forge my own destiny, no matter how ‘mean’ I have to be.
