Summary
Valerie, a reincarnated soul, arrived in this new world with grand dreams of becoming a legendary mage. Yet, reality proved far less magical: her powers barely scrape past the basics. When a cryptic prophecy warns of a looming ‘tiger’ threatening her peace, Valerie decides to ditch destiny and embrace the quiet, ordinary life she truly craves.
But fate, it seems, has other plans. Her path to normalcy is shattered by an unexpected engagement to the enigmatic Duke Kylus Dwello. Suddenly, Valerie finds herself entangled in a whirlwind of unwanted attention: a mysterious woman named Serena who seems to have the entire household rooting for her and the Duke, a boundary-ignoring prince determined to insert himself into her life, and the Duke himself, whose intense presence seems to follow her everywhere—even looming over her bed!
Can Valerie reclaim her simple existence, or is she destined to be swept up in a dramatic, ‘stereotypical’ romance she never asked for? Dive into chapter 1 to find out!
