Chapter 1 | A Little Different. / Chapter 2 | Convincing Her - Part 1 |

* This chapter is chapter 1 combined with chapter 2! The next chapter will be chapter 3! *

Chapter 1: A Little Different.

When was it when i started realising that I was in a novel?

Right... It was that day when the son of the wealthy family first began yelling at me for hurting a student.

***

People only knew books that reincarnates it's character from the medieval time.

Reincarnating as a princess, an empress, and the duke's daughter.

All of those stories have two things in common.

Reincarnating, and as a villainess from a story or a game.

Those stories are popular. Targeting young girls.

But what if it was reversed? How about a young girl from medieval time reincarnating as a wealthy villainess in modern world?

***

I was from a wealthy family.

In fact, I was a marquis' daughter.

I had a loving father, mother, and three loving older siblings.

My life was perfect.

Being the fiance of the one I love. And also being loved back.

But I died in place of my best friend.

And when I opened my eyes again,

The love interest yelled at me while looking at me with fierce eyes

Chapter 2: Convincing her

Betrayal - Part 1 (1/3)

__

***

Lady Sia rushed towards me and hugged me tightly.

I felt her warm tears wet my dress.

"Luna... What do I do...?"

I hugged her back and leaned to her shoulder without saying anything.

"His Highness is gonna kill me...!"

"I'm sorry Sia... I- I can't do anything..."

Lady Sia, who has been my friend for over a decade, was accused of treason by the prince's lover.

Lady Sia is a duke's daughter. She's the crown prince's only fiance candidate and the next possible queen of the kingdom.

While the prince's lover is only a poor viscount's daughter with no potential of being the next queen.

With that said, it's easy to understand that the prince's lover wanted to get rid of a thing stopping her and the prince from marrying each other.

The crown prince might actually notice her plan but chose to turn a blind eye to it because of also wanting to marry her.

If people think more, they will probably have already thought about this thing happening. But of course, they did not.

The prince's lover has a good nature, how could they think such a thing when they've seen her kindness in front of their eyes?

She was popular for her kindness and angelic smiles while the duke's daughter was only known for her high rank in society and pretty face.

People would naturally choose the kindhearted girl over a dull woman whose they've only heard of in the rumors?

So even if they think it was fake, the face of a kind-hearted woman appears and their doubts immediately disappeared.

I am only a marquees' daughter with no actual power in my hands. But I could do...something to save her...

"I'll sacrifice my self."

The girl in my arms stopped crying and waited for me to talk again.

"Blame it on me."

Sia finally moved and held to my shoulders while backing up to look at me in the eyes.

"Wha- What are you talking about...?"

"After I die, marry the prince and collect evidence for his crimes... And min-"

*Slapp!!*

Before I could finish my word, a hard slap hit my face.

"Are you out of your mind!?"

I looked at her face that was wet from her running tears. I looked at her eyes and widen my eyes.

She was completely glaring at me.

"What do you mean sacrificing your self!? Do you know how dumb you sound right now!?"

"S...Sia..."

*Slapp!!*

She slapped me again, except it was lighter and didn't hurt that much.

"I don't want you to leave me Luna!"

"But you'll also leave me if I don't do anything!"

"Sia!!"

She loudly yelled directly at me. Her face was turning red while still wet from the new tears that keep running down.

I clenched my fist and look down at the caramel-colored wooden floor.

"If I don't sacrifice my self...you'll die...,"

I felt my knees giving up and I fell into the wooden floor

"But if I sacrifice my self we- we'll have justice... Because you're the only one that can do- do that..."

My vision started to blur as I hear droplets of tears meet the hard wooden floor.

I knew it was a crazy plan.

Blaming her "crime" into me so that she could marry the prince and take revenge for us.

It's such a weak and easy to read plan

But with our hands not holding any power, this is the only thing we could do.

And I know she understands it too.

"Please sia..."

I looked up to see her face while a drop of tear fell off my face.

"Luna..."

"...I'm sorry..."

And after that word, she left my room without turning back.
