A Gorgeous Villain

Carmen Wade thought she had it all—a perfect job, a loyal best friend, and a husband she adored. Everything was perfect! But her world shatters the night she discovers her husband's ultimate betrayal with her best friend, Millie. Fearing Carmen will expose their affair, the two decide to kill her, forcing her into an oncoming truck. She bleeds to death. But when Carmen opens her eyes, she’s no longer in her own world. She’s been reborn as Lady Daphne Vasquez—The infamous villainess from her favorite fantasy novel, destined to meet a brutal end in the hands of her fiancé. Determined to change her fate, Carmen (now Daphne) shocks the kingdom by first calling off her engagement with Lord Michael Ruiz, who bears an uncanny resemblance to her treacherous husband, Cody Wade. Her actions draw the attention of King Rafe Crowe, a powerful ruler from a neighboring land who becomes suspicious of Daphne’s sudden transformation. As Carmen navigates a world of greedy nobles and magic, she must use her knowledge of the story’s end to outsmart those who would see her fall, including her former fiancé and the heroine of the novel—who eerily mirrors Millie. But her greatest challenge may be resisting the charm of King Rafe, whose keen eyes seem to see right through her facade and changing the narrative of the story she once knew it’s end. In a world where allies and enemies blend together, Carmen’s second chance at life becomes a high-stakes game of survival, vengeance, unexpected romance and avoiding a dark prophecy.

The narrative starts a year ago. When it was discovered that she was the daughter of a noble traitor, the imperial family issued an order for her execution. Numerous aristocrats cheered consequently, including the true daughter of the Lafera family and her beloved former fiancé Casimir Romana. Formerly a beautiful lady and crown princess, Solstice Lafera was imprisoned and given the death penalty. She knew she would die permanently if she was put to death. Fortunately, she was reborn three significant years before her execution. This time, can she accomplish her goals with the aid of fate?

Nadia Yolanda, budak korporat yang demen mabok dan mengeluh, tiba-tiba bertransmigrasi ke dunia lain sebagai dedengkot seorang penjahat wanita (villainess). --- - --- - --- - --- "Aku tau kamu bukan dari dunia ini." Eh? Apa katanya? Ah. Enggak! Enggak! Pasti aku salah dengar. "Em ...., Tuan Devon. Saya tidak mengerti apa yang anda maksu-" "Enggak perlu mengelak lagi. Saya sudah tahu semuanya." Pria bangsawan itu mengeluarkan buku bersampul coklat dari saku tunik berkilauannya. Sebentar. Buku itu kelihatan familier. Ukurannya yang pas di tangan, desain yang sebelas-dua belas dengan catatan harianku pada kehidupan sebelumnya, sampul belakang yang ditutupi coretan acak-adul iseng dari sampul emas. Sialan. Itu buku harianku! Gimana bisa ada di tangannya? "Aku harap kamu bisa ngasih penjelasan yang rasional ketika aku nyerahin ini ke Ayah dan Baginda Raja." Mampus! --- - --- - --- - ---- Jadi, singkatnya: aku mati, lalu terlahir jadi tokoh-yang sama sekali-enggak penting di cerita yang kubuat bertahun-tahun lalu. Bego banget kalau ada yang percaya kenyataan halu kayak gitu.

Namun, sebelum menjadi sosok yang ditakuti, Zhefora hanyalah seorang gadis kecil yang dikutuk oleh takdir. Ia lahir sebagai putri dari penguasa kerajaan iblis, tetapi sejak kecil ia dijauhi karena cakra iblis yang mengalir dalam tubuhnya—sesuatu yang bahkan kaum iblis sendiri takuti. Dibandingkan dengan saudara-saudaranya yang disanjung dan dihormati, Zhefora tumbuh dalam bayang-bayang ketakutan dan kebencian. Jika ia terluka, orang-orang menghindar. Jika ia tersenyum, mereka menatapnya dengan ngeri. Jika ia menangis, dunia seolah menertawakan kelemahannya. Maka, ia berhenti tersenyum. Berhenti menangis. Berhenti berharap. Di usianya yang ke-16, ibunya meninggal secara tragis, dan ayahnya menghilang dalam perang yang tak pernah dimenangkannya. Takhta kerajaan jatuh ke tangannya—bukan karena ia menginginkannya, tetapi karena tidak ada pilihan lain.

Dan yang lebih penting... mengapa kehadirannya membuat hati Zhefora yang beku mulai retak?
