Chapter 01: Reincarnated as the Villainess

════════ ✥.❖.✥ ════════

❝Chapter 01❞

"Lady Juliet, please tell me where did I go wrong? Why do you hate me so much? My only fault was loving his highness, but never did I think of wanting him to leave you."

The lady burst a laugh, Her eyes were full of anger and envy, staring at the woman who was much more pity to see than her, imprisoned in a cell with wounds on her body.

"How could you ask me that? When all you did was laugh then boom, everything loves you, everyone adores you while me? The throne was bestowed on my head, the Crown Prince was mine, but when you appeared on his life? He left me, he divorced me and I never had the chance to show him how I'm much more capable of loving him than you."

She couldn't get rid of the hatred in her eyes every time she saw the tears falling from the eyes of the woman who caused everything, starting with her suffering, until she was left by the man she loved.

She can't accept how things ended with her death, the only thing she thinks is that she is innocent and she did everything to return to her what she thought was hers.

Se stood up from her thrashing on the dirt floor and turned to look at the small window that let in the rays from the moon.

"You asked me why I hate you so much? Because you have everything, but I don't regret anything. Everything I did was for my sake, I had a chance to show you my wrath even if it ended like this, I never regret it."

She flushed a smile and closed her eyes firmly, tears were pouring out from her eyes.

"You don't have to understand it though, since you're not me, you're not Juliet Lucienne."

That was her last words before everything ended with her death, she was remembered as the witch of the Empire, the villainess named 'Juliet Lucienne'.

Yandere's love

'Chapter 16: Juliet's End'

°•~━━✥❖✥━━~•°

I winced and quickly closed the book, among the many novels I've read, Juliet's story as the villain is the one I hate the most and love the most.

Her character ends up dead because of her attempt to kill the heroine with a poison.

You don't know whether to pity or celebrate. Well, both feelings are inside me when I read it though, I was completely disgusted with her because she was really annoying but I also felt sorry for her because she was poisoned by the idea of love and in the end, she fell for it and died.

I woke up in a panic from laying my head on the table when the telephone suddenly rang.

I coughed and smiled.

"Thank you for calling Archer Company, this is Lumina Enclave speaking, how may I help you?" I greeted.

The other line seems to be in a daze for not being able to speak, I clenched my fist to avoid my annoyed feeling.

"Hello? This is Lumina Enclave from Archer Company, how may I help you?" I repeated.

My eyebrows furrowed, is this another prank call again? Seriously? It's already 1:00 am and yet these people who likes to play prank are still awake.

"You had just dialed our customers service number-"

I stopped when the call on the other line was suddenly cut off, I hung up the telephone with a smile and then just pulled my hair.

I checked my wristwatch and sighed before I started packing up my things to go home. I looked to my side and saw my co-worker sleeping, he forgot to go home so he just fell asleep.

When the things were arranged, I started walking out, the cold wind welcomed me when I opened the sliding door.

The horns of the cars could be heard even at one o'clock in the morning. Why should I be surprised?

I coughed because of the cold so I hurriedly walked closer to the pedestrian lane. The light from the buildings are still visible, it has always been like this.

The boring life of a call center agent, nothing new in my eyes, even the horns and lights from the car I already memorized.

I opened my touchscreen cellphone with a cracked screen, because I sat on it when I was sleeping in the office, it was stupid.

But at least it still works, right? Since I don't have important events in need of my phone, it's okay not to buy a new one.

I can see the time and date on the screen, there is nothing important inside my cellphone, I was just checking if mom texted and maybe buy pampers for my brother.

I felt the wind blowing and I saw the green from the traffic light.

I started crossing while holding my bag in my arm, every time I do this, walking alone to crossed the road, it feels empty.

I looked up at the moon and accidentally stopped on the road causing me to panic when I heard the loud siren from the truck.

I couldn't move an inch, how can I avoid such big truck?

I found myself forming a relieved smile on my lips as the truck hit me. Blood spilling on my mouth and eyes are getting blurry. I can feel my head getting banged by the cement of the road and my bones all over my body, breaking. There's no way that my body would survive this, not even the sight of my pitiful body would awoke from such kind of accident.

Ah, this is heaven, I don't have to suffer from overworking anymore.

I woke up panting and groaned when I felt the pain in my head.

Rubbing the back of my neck I opened my eyes and found myself in an unfamiliar room.

The dazzling golden theme room was overflowing on my point of view. Did a sugar daddy pick me up so I woke up in this beautiful room?

I was excited to think that it was true, but I stopped when I realized that what I was thinking was not possible, I can't still open my legs wide, especially since I have a sugar problem, my knee might give out.

I was in the middle of racing in my mind when the door suddenly opened and a woman I didn't know spat out.

I looked at her from head to toe and I was amazed, how cool! Your grandmother is wearing a maid's outfit.

"W-who are you by chance?" I asked smiling while biting my lower lip.

She paused before putting down the tray containing the delicious food. Even the spoon and plate, you could tell were actually made of gold.

How is that even possible?

She was about to leave the room when I called her again.

"Ahm, s-sister maid! I-it's a bit uncomfortable for me, but may I ask who's the rich guy who took me?" I asked.

She didn't give any reaction and just kept looking at me, my spirit stopped in the air because of her stares.

This maid isn't even showing any emotions on her face, is she against my presence? Do they have a secret affair with the person who hired me?

I shook of my thoughts before I let out an awkward smile. "Do you perhaps hate me?"

"What do you mean my lady? I am not in the place to hate you my lady since I am your servant."

I was stunned by her direct statement, how could she say that without even a glint of hesitation?

I shook my head and waved my hands in rejection of what she said.

"I'm still new, I'm not your boss and I don't even know the man who brought me here."

She didn't answer me directly but let out a sigh instead.

"Lady Juliet, it's not the time for your pranks. You need to get ready before your lesson for etiques," she said.

Wait, what?

Etique?

and what? Juliet?

"I'm sorry? Who's Juliet?" I asked.

"You, my lady."

We stared at each other before I laughed out loud, me? Juliet? What the hell?

"Juliet? From Shakespeare's romantic tragedy, Juliet Capulet? Don't tell me I got reincarnated into the body of that woman? Can I save Romeo now?" I asked in panic mixed with excitement.

"No, my lady."

My arms fell because of the answer. Child of the grasshopper, what's going on?

I laughed and the laughter gradually disappeared when our eyes met. She looks like she's not joking at all, who in the world is Juliet?

I got up in a panic and approached the full body sized mirror and stepped back when I saw the face of a woman I was not familiar with.

Oh God, what is this?

Who the fuck is this woman?

"Ha, mama help..." I whispered to myself.

"My Lady, please be aware of your appearance and your health. Wear your slippers instead of walking barefoot," she says.

"Who am I?" I asked and faced her.

She came to me and knelt down then put on the soft slippers.

I cried and backed away to stop her from putting slippers on my feet.

"Who am I?" I asked again.

"You're the second Daughter of Duke William and Duchess Jubelline, you belong inside the manor of Moreau, highest noble among the nobles."

It was as if cold water was poured over my head because of the coldness I felt. It was like a wave of the sea passed through me that caused me to be swept away in a thought that I was inside a novel.

"Lady Juliet?"

Stop! Don't call me Juliet, call me Lumina! I don't want to be the villainess.

I just realized that my life as a call center agent was much more better.

Than being her...

Being the villainess of the novel 'Yandere's love'.
