Fate

In a kingdom named Drachentia, there lived a kind-hearted Princess that earned the nickname Drachentia Kingdom’s Winter Flower. Born from the esteemed Duke of Mountravven family. Her name is Fuschia Mountravven. However, after becoming a Crown Princess, her nature was exposed.

She was an immoral and cruel woman. The various heinous acts that she hid behind the mask of a ‘princess with a gold heart’ were exposed at the birth of her first son, which proved to be the result of adultery. Apart from tarnishing the honor name of the Royal Family, Fuschia also poisoned the Crown Prince, her husband, to cover her tracks.

"Kill that vile woman who betrayed and poisoned the Crown Prince!" Cheers from the crowd gathered in the execution area.

Fuschia's dark blue hair that had once gleamed as beautiful as night, matted and dirty like a rat hair in a gutter. Her tongue was burned with a hot iron and then sprinkled with salt. The proper punishment for a woman with a poisonous tongue.

Her 8 month-old son was also the target of people’s anger. However, Fuschia was indifferent. She didn't even flinch when her son was pelted with pebbles.

“You devil!” Gushed people.

On the other hand, Your Majesty the King and Queen and other nobles witnessed how terribly Fuschia was treated like an opera show. They smirked.

Suddenly the Crown Prince, Hayden Houstchavv Drachentia, who just woke up from poisoning appeared in their midst. Prince Hayden begged his father, Your Majesty the King, not to execute Fuschia and her baby. Instead, they are removed from their posts and exiled to a monastery on the border of the Kingdom without being allowed to set foot in the capital again.

The people gasped. How could his heart be so generous to a cunning woman like Fuschia? The woman who had betrayed his love and even tried to kill him. The nobles who were present had opposed Hayden’s plea. But thanks to his charisma, they are silent. After all, who would dare to oppose if the victim himself decided that? Moreover, he is a Crown Prince, the rightful heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Drachentia.

“I hope my generosity is not considered as a weakness! After all, maybe I was the one who was incapable of paying attention to my wife that makes her decided to commits crimes."

As a result of this incident, Hayden found it difficult to trust women and love. He became cold and rarely smiled. His daily life only includes meetings, work, meetings, fighting monsters, and meetings again. Even when the Royal Family matched him up with several other noble daughters, Hayden balked.

Until one day, Hayden met a female knight with rose-red hair. The beautiful, the brave, and the strong. Named Sarah Lawrenttio, daughter of Baron Lawrenttio. It didn't take long for the two of them to fall in love with each other even though at that time Hayden hid his identity. Their love’s journey was full of obstacles, but the two of them managed to get through it all together. Until they are married and happy forever.

That is the short story of the romantic novel she had heard during her life in Indonesia.

'Bastard! I've never done those terrible things! I've never slept with anyone other than Hayden, my husband! But why is my baby have not the royal family’s blood? Crazy… this is all crazy… this world really just sided with the plot of that damn novel! My ten years of hard work so that I don't have the same fate as the villainess Fuschia in the novel, turns out to be in vain.' Fuschia sobbed as the guards pushed her roughly into the narrow old wooden wagon while clutching her baby tightly.

Before becoming Fuschia Mountravven, her name was Nawang Lintang. A 25-year-old woman works as a cashier at a supermarket. She was born into an ordinary family. With an ordinary face, an ordinary body, and an ordinary skill. Nor was there any tragic drama in her life that made her miserable.

Until one night when she replaced another employee's shift, a group of robbers robs the supermarket where she worked. Even though Nawang didn't fight back, she was still killed. Stabbed with a long knife until she bled out and died on the spot. The only regret at the end of her life was that she died a virgin!

Magic or not, Nawang came back to life. However, her soul transmigrated into Fuschia Mountravven's body. When she heard people calling her by that name, Nawang pulled her hair out. Even though she never read the novel thoroughly -  and she doesn't even know the title of the novel, Nawang knows Fuschia's tragic end from her conversations with her younger cousin.

The character of Fuschia is a character behind the tragic story of the main male character. Bluntly speaking, in order to justify the action of the main character, Fuschia is used as a stepping stone.

'Damn writer! Of the many characters involved, why do I have to become Fuschia?!'

Over and over again she tried to escape from the Mountravven residence. Only to get caught by the family's knights immediately.

She also attempted to break her engagement to The Crown Prince, Hayden. But oddly, Hayden chased her instead. Confess his love for Fuschia every single time they meet. For Nawang, who was never dating then died a virgin, Hayden's sweet affection makes her melt.

Nawang falls in love with Hayden. She gave her heart, soul, and body freely to this charming man. Until she has a son. Her big dream to become a mother, which was not fulfilled in her past life, was finally fulfilled. But! The world still sees her as a villainess that needs to be removed for the sake of the continuation of the story.

'Even though I know Fushia won't die and is just exiled, it still hurts. I thought I could change the storyline. But thank God, we can still live, baby. Even if your mama can't talk anymore, mama will try hard for you, baby.' Fuschia hugged her baby tightly. A smile etched on her shabby face.

'Hayden dear, I'm so sorry. Because of my stupidity, I got caught in their sneaky game. I've never cheated. I'm not that evil either. I don't know what tricks they used to get me to bear a child not yours, but I swear I never cheat on you. I hope this doesn't hurt you too much, Hayden. If you follow the plot, you will fall in love once again with someone who is better and smarter than me. Thanks for being there for me all this time and for giving me this cute baby. I… always pray for your happiness.' Fuschia watching Hayden as she dragged away.

Merri, her devoted personal maid, hugged her mistress tightly.

"Hey. Get down” Raymon ordered her in a low voice.

Raymon is Hayden's personal bodyguard assigned to escort Fuschia to the monastery at Hayden's request. Both of them quite often exchange jokes. But Raymon that night felt strange.

Fuschia hugged the baby tighter as she got out of the wagon with Merri. Her eyes swept anxiously over every inch of the dark surrounding.

DUG! Raymon knocked Merri's head down to the ground.

'Huk! Raymon! What is this?!' Fuschia screamed frantically, but all that came out was a mute’s groan.

"Take care of this girl so that she doesn't die a virgin," Raymon ordered the other two knights who immediately tarnished the chastity of the poor girl's body.

"!!!!!"

Fuschia sat limply. Her eyes widened as if they were about to explode. Merri’s cry voice, the innocent girl who was loyal to her, was heartbreaking. Meanwhile, Fuschia was only able to cry and beg for an end to this lecherous act.

Then Raymon approached. He snatched Fuschia’s baby from her embrace, who was crying hysterically. The sound of her son’s crying tore Fuschia's heart, as well as cheering up the monsters who had been huddling around for some time. Fushia clings to Raymon's leg with all her might which was countered by a heavy kick to her head.

“HAARGG!" Fuschia kissed the ground.

Her anger dulled the pain that ran through her whole body. She crawled one more time to hold Raymon's leg, the result was the same.

'JUST WHY?! What would you like to do with my baby?! Bastard! Damn it! I just need to be exiled, so why are you doing this to me and my baby? WHY?!'

Fuschia in the novel doesn't care about the baby, but it's different from ‘this Fuschia’. She loved her son very much.

In the frenzy, Fuschia watched as her baby was thrown into the crowd of monsters outside the magic barrier like a crocodile’s bait. The group of monsters immediately tore apart the baby's tiny body. Hands, feet, and head separated from the poor baby's body. It hasn't been a second yet, but the baby's body is already gone.

"ARGHH!" Fuschia's body spasmed. All the blood vessels in her eyes burst, and tears of blood slowly streamed down her face. Her body lying limp on the ground looks so sad.

"That person told me to kill your son and your loyal maid in the most sadistic way before I kill you."

'That ... person?'

Then from the darkness of the forest, Hayden and a woman with red hair in a high ponytail appeared together.

'Hayden? Why are you here... and what’s with that woman with red hair? Is that Sa…rah?!'

“You have arrived, Your Highness the Crown Prince. I killed the child and her maid."

"Good job, Raymon," Hayden said mockingly.

"!!!!!"

'How come, Hayden?! How?!'

“I'm telling you this because these are your last moments. I don't want you to die in a curious state and haunt me. You know right, the myth about The Curious Ghosts? Even if I don't fully believe it, there's no harm in doing it.” Hayden smirk.

“Fuschia, I’ve wanted to kill you from the very first time we met. In a way as sadistic as possible. I was almost frustrated when there was a time when you avoid me and even tried to cancel our engagement. I thought you read my plan. But in the end, you fell into my trap. Stupid."

Fuschia glared at Hayden with red eyes. Hayden was grinning.

“I'm fed up with you, so how can I sleep with you in the same bed?! Your son is the son of a lowly slave! Hahahaha! You must be very angry that a lowly slave touched your body, right? I know how high your pride is, Fuschia. Hahahahah. Raymon, finish it."

Raymon raised his sword high into the air. The blade shone so brightly reflects the moonlight that it seems like it could cut through bone in one swing.

'Bastard!'

The knight's sword swung downwards. Cut off the wind and separated her head from her body. Her life ended miserably despite her efforts. Before her brain accepts her death, Fuschia's eyes are filled with the movements of black butterflies until her vision fades completely.

***

Fuschia opened her eyes. Something felt very strange. The soft blanket that embraced her body, and the warm sunlight that entered through the large window of her room were a sharp contrast to the tragic’s moment she had just experienced.

“Hmph. I guess rising from the dead is my curse. Oh, shit.”

"Your Highness Crown Princess, are you awake?" Merri's soft voice assured her that she is back as Fuschia again.
