Die once; shame on the bastard who pushed me. Die twice? That’s when I realize I’m not even human anymore, and I wake up tied to a stake like some 10th-century witch about to be burned. Not great! Wait a minute! Why am I strapped between two posts alongside other terrified girls while a crowd looks on with disgust? And who the fuck is this sizzling male – no predator stepping forward with copper hair falling just above his shoulders and piercing amber eyes that seem to stare right through my damn soul? He’s towering, with a body built for war and an aura so suffocating that I can barely breathe. Even worse! He’s beautiful in the most terrifying way—like staring at an enemy you know could snap your neck, but you’re too mesmerized to look away. Hi, I’m Imani Marlowe. Or at least, I was. In my last life, I was the mistress who got pushed off a skyscraper by my supposedly devoted client-turned-husband who conveniently forgot to mention he was married. In this life, I am Imani Valeris – an Omega werewolf with a broken heat cycle and a psycho wolf who doesn’t listen to me. Translation? I radiate need like a damn beacon, and every supernatural male in a ten-mile radius is ready to claim me. And wouldn’t you know it – my latest meltdown happened during the most crucial werewolf summit of the decade. Perfect timing because just as the butcher lifts his blade to end me for disrupting a revered meeting like the summit, a dragon sweeps through the clouds, covering the sun with its mighty wings before landing right in front of me. In one breath, it burns the guard trying to kill me and then scoots over to that sizzling male from before. His gaze holds mine, and he growls the word “mine.” But then – another voice, just as fierce. “You cannot claim a defect and an offender.” He’s the Alpha of my pack. “She stays with us and will be tried in our courts.” Now I’m trapped between two monsters, and I have to choose: The Infertile Dragon Lord, who is mighty and desperate for an heir Or the powerful Alpha, who is my supposed mate. Both want me. Both would wage war for me. And to top it all off? The man who murdered me in my last life is back – as a vampire, hunting me across lifetimes. Oh, and I have three days before my next heat hits – likely burning down whatever’s left of my dignity. Three days before I lose my mind to the hunger. Three days before, I have to choose between fire and fury. Tick. Tock.

The moon cast silver ripples over the stream, its surface smooth—unlike the storm raging inside Ginny. Her chest burned, her throat tightened, and despite her best efforts, the tears came anyway. "You wouldn’t understand!" she snapped, her voice raw, strained. Behind her, Seung Woo stood unmoved, arms crossed, his gaze cold. "I don’t need to." His words cut through the night like steel. She spun on her heel, fury flashing in her eyes. "God, you’re insufferable!" A muscle in his jaw twitched, but he remained silent. Ginny let out a humorless chuckle, wrapping her arms around herself. "Of course, you wouldn’t say anything. What do you care? My life was never perfect, but now… now it’s ruined. It’s not even mine anymore." Finally, he spoke, voice quieter, yet firm. "Perfection is an illusion. No life is ever truly yours. We all answer to something." She scoffed. "And that’s supposed to make me feel better?" He exhaled sharply, stepping closer. "You think I have it any better? That I don’t wake up every day wondering if I’ll make it through the next? We’re all prisoners in our own way, Jin So-Hee." She stiffened. There it was again—her stolen name, a reminder of the cage she now lived in. "You don’t get it," she murmured, shaking her head. "You belong here. I don’t." Seung Woo’s eyes darkened. "Then stop acting like a lost cause and start surviving." His words struck something deep within her. Ginny bit her lip, blinking fast to hold back another wave of emotion. "Easy for you to say," she whispered. "You weren’t ripped out of your world and thrown into someone else’s tragedy." For the first time, his gaze softened. He took another step closer, close enough that she could feel the warmth of him. "No. But if this is your tragedy, then rewrite it." Her breath hitched. His hand barely grazed hers, a fleeting touch, grounding her. "But," he added, voice barely above a whisper, "the time I’ve spent with you… it’s the only thing in this world that has ever felt real." Ginny’s heart skipped. Her mouth opened, then closed. 'Shit.' She turned away, pressing a hand to her chest as if that would calm the erratic rhythm of her pulse. "What the hell am I supposed to do with that.. information?" she muttered. --- Ginny lolly Sanchez was just another woman caught in the monotony of modern life—until she woke up in the body of Jin So-Hee, the infamous villainess of a brutal, war-torn dynasty. Her fate? Death at the hands of a powerful warrior with a heart of ice. But Ginny isn’t about to let history—or whatever twisted force brought her here—decide her future. In a world where blades speak louder than words and alliances are as fragile as glass, she must navigate palace intrigue, deadly assassins, and one maddeningly handsome protector who seems just as determined to push her away as he is to keep her alive. The rules of this world demand her submission. Ginny? She plans to rewrite them. Even if it means playing the villainess to survive.
