But desire comes with a price, and Selene must decide if she's ready to risk her heart, and her innocence, for a man who could ruin her... or set her free. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This story is a work of fiction.

She was meant to die quietly. Poisoned, discarded, and forgotten by the empire that once adored her, the spoiled princess should have faded into history. Instead, she woke up different-sharper, colder, and unwilling to beg for affection ever again. Surrounded by four S-rank beastmates she once humiliated, and watched by a court that senses something has changed, Lily steps back into power with a new understanding: this world does not reward innocence. In a realm of beasts, politics are deadlier than claws, loyalty must be earned twice, and love is never free. And this time, she does not intend to be the one destroyed.

Alice Beaumont was an ordinary girl with an unremarkable life-until tragedy struck. Caught in a sudden explosion, her life was snuffed out in an instant. But death was not the end. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself reborn as Charlotte Everthorne-the infamous villainess of the very novel she once read. The cruel, cold-hearted princess of the Eldoria Kingdom, fated to meet her demise at the hands of the male lead. Armed with the painful knowledge of her inevitable death, Charlotte refuses to accept the fate written for her. With every calculated step, sweet smile, and carefully chosen word, she is determined to rewrite her destiny. But changing the story is not as easy as it seems-especially when the people around her expect the same wicked villainess they've always known. With danger lurking at every corner and the story's plot threatening to trap her, Charlotte will do everything just to not die-even if it means playing the villainess in a different way. Because this time, she won't let fate decide her ending.

Read to see how they go from stealing each other's hearts to claiming it. Jennie could never have thought that she could be loved this way; she never thought someone would give their everything just to have her in their life. For Rosé, all she wanted was to colour herself in her beloved colours until someone scrambled her feelings, throwing it all into the deep ocean. Rosé wanted revenge for the rejection, and Jennie was falling in love. [⚠️⚠️EVERY LINE HERE TOOK A PIECE OF ME. RESPECT THE STORY AND NO, YOU MAY NOT REPOST IT.
