I've been reincarnated into the very web novel I used to mock endlessly with my friends-and even in the comment sections. Who could blame me? It was the epitome of clichés: a forced marriage, endless misunderstandings between husband and wife, suffocating angst, the heroine's dramatic escape, and the inescapable regret of the so-called male lead. Predictable, frustrating, and utterly tiresome. Yet here I am, inhabiting the role of that very heroine in 'Husband Is Regretting.' My first priority? Divorce the walking red flag I've been shackled to. But for some reason, the more I ignore him, the more fixated he becomes. And if that wasn't confusing enough, a side character who was supposed to appear only once suddenly approaches me with a bold question: "Shall I be your secret lover?" What on earth is going on in this story? Owner of the cover X\@irt_5433

Ilia Andromeda was never meant to rule, only to serve. In her first life, she was the power behind the throne: the woman who used her family's agricultural might and political influence to elevate the Second Prince to the position of Crown Prince. Branded the other woman, whispered about as useful and disposable, Ilia learned too late that loyalty has no value once power is secured. When the crown was won, she was silenced. Betrayed, mutilated, and left to die by the man she helped ascend, Ilia's name was dragged through the streets as a villainess, an ambitious woman punished for daring to reach too high. But fate grants her a second life. Awakening years before her execution, Ilia abandons love, devotion, and illusion. This time, she will not raise a man to power. She will claim it herself. With cold precision, she begins to dismantle the court that once condemned her, manipulating noble houses, weaponizing public perception, and reshaping the empire from the shadows. There will be no romance to distract her. No mercy to weaken her resolve, no throne she will not take. Because if power is all that matters, Ilia Andromeda will ensure it belongs to her alone.

Gorgeous cover by @DNB2k16 There comes a time when you get used to the pain. You don't feel hurt nor surprised anymore. You just stop caring altogether. I don't know what other's think of it, but to me it's convenient. It's good that I don't act weak anymore and bawl my eyes out at every twitch. I feel content because I can make the people who hurt me pay back for it with interests. I used to be innocent and forgiving but now, my eyes have opened. I have experienced it several times that some people do not deserve mercy, but I chose to look the other side. However, as they say, there comes a time, a person in your life who changes everything. You love them. You adore them. You act your best to please them and on the dark side, you can't forgive the ones who put even a scratch on them. That person came in my life too, but this time, I couldn't look the other side and forgive and forget those who took him away from me. My only strength. My only warmth. My only person. I may be obsessed, but I don't care. For me that person has always been more than a soul mate and a beloved. He is my LIFE. And what do you when your life is endangered? You do not sit still. You strive to survive and if instincts call for it, then you attack! I learned my lesson. I'm not going to simply let it go. I'm not going to be merciful. I'm not going to value stupid sacred bonds of my race. I'm not going to think about my mission. I'm only going to do what I'm supposed to do to get him back. I'm not going to hold back anymore and if the situation arises then I'll go against anyone even if he is the King of Werewolves. I will use anyone if it means I can get one step close to him. I don't mind shedding blood anymore because I can overcome any fear, but not the fear of losing him. I won't let any bond hold me back anymore. The only bond I care about is with him. The one I chose for myself. The bond of pure love and hope. "The day will come soon when we'll reunite again. I promise."
