    She doesn't predict the future. She codes it. A girl who speaks in flowers. A duke who survives a poisoned bolt. A crown prince who laughs like a weapon. A princess who smiles like a trap. Gentiana Louis only wanted to stay safe quiet, invisible, forgettable. But the first bouquet changed everything. Because the Duke didn't just survive. He started watching. And when he finally learns who's been whispering warnings through petals... he doesn't let her disappear again. The palace calls her "a guest." The Duke calls her "stay close." The Crown Prince calls her "interesting." And Percy? Percy calls her "a problem." Every banquet feels like a battlefield. Every smile hides a knife. Every flower carries a message someone is desperate to intercept. And the worst part? Gentiana can't afford to fall for either of them. Because the closer she gets to the truth... the more it feels like the truth has been waiting for her.

    After ending her life to escape relentless bullying and emotional exhaustion, a nameless girl awakens in the fragile body of a six-year-old noble child. But this isn't a second chance-it's a new hell. She has been reincarnated into the body of the West Duke's hidden daughter, a child locked away in the basement, neglected and abused by the very family meant to protect her. Isolated, bruised, and numb, she accepts her fate in silence. But fate shifts when the feared and mysterious North Duke visits the West in search of an heir. Amidst a sea of noble children, it is the broken girl with dead eyes he notices. Something in her stillness, her silence, her scars - calls to him. What follows is a slow-burning tale of healing, power, and the struggle to find a reason to live again - in a world both cruel and magical.

    After unknowingly returning to her original world, she awoke in the frail body of a girl she recognized-a semi-villainess from a novel fated to die by her own son's hand. Unwilling to face such an end again, she resolved to sever her engagement with the crown prince, certain he despised her. Yet her sudden boldness-her unflinching gaze and daring words-shook the palace. Those who had once dismissed her began to watch closely; those who scorned her now whispered with intrigue. Prince Acacius, who had regarded her as nothing more than a pawn, found himself captivated. The more she slipped from his control, the more obsession rooted in him-and when he saw his half-brother Theodore with her, jealousy twisted into poison. Theodore had never cared for Lavinia, but her sharp tongue and strange humor pierced through his indifference. Seeing Acacius's temper flare whenever she laughed only spurred his amusement-and his resolve to claim her. Then came the saint Clotilde. She concealed a zeal no scripture could tame. Unlike the princes, her desire was not rivalry but possession. She wanted Lavinia all for herself. Even her brothers, who had long stood at the edges of her life, now hovered near, unsettled by the fire that had awakened in her. What had changed? Why did the world suddenly turn around her? Lavinia herself did not know. She only knew this: she would not bow to the cruel fate the novel had written. This time, she would carve her own path. TW UN-EDITED

    The cabin was musky and wet. The wood was rotten, but somehow held on as it moved. I entered the cabin, the wooden floor creaking under my weight. I was met with the pungent smell of rotting wood. Ignoring everything, I walked inside, slowly trudging along the passage that seemed never to end. The yellow cabin light flickered, giving me an uneasy feeling. Suddenly, the cabin is filled with the familiar whistle of a melody, the one I longed to hear all these years. Sometimes the whistle felt so close I almost felt the warmth of the person's breath on my nape, but other times it felt so far stretched that I couldn't comprehend the tune anymore. I felt myself tearing up as it reminded me of him. "S-Sol?" I whispered in a desperate attempt to call out to him. Suddenly, I was thrown to the floor with an immense force. I looked up and my eyes locked with those eyes, which used to be dark, like cedar, now unrecognizably crimson. His gaze, which always used to be loving and tender when directed at me, now stared back with fury, sharp enough to flay. My heart thumped in my ears as a sense of terror filled my being. My lips quivered, trying to make a sound, but to no avail. He smirked evilly and bent down, never breaking eye contact. "Long time no see, Lionheart," he whispered to my ear huskily, sending a shiver down my spine.

    Eliana "Lia" Javier was the worst spoiled known in the entire Empire. Spoiled rotten by the Emperor, despised by her brilliant brothers, and married off to a duke who looked at her like something he'd scraped off his boot, her only legacy was selfishness. Then her brothers voted to send her to rule the Empire's doomed northern fortress-a frozen hell overrun by monsters. She died there three years later, alone on a crumbling wall, her only regret that she hadn't been better. She should have stayed dead. Instead, she woke up in a modern world with her memories intact-along with her three equally traumatized, equally silent brothers. They lived a second life as elite soldiers, drowning in regret and too emotionally stunted to say a single word about it. They died (again) without ever breaking the silence. Now, two cosmic IT Administrators have shoved them back in time with a System, a party chat, and a mandate: "Fix your family drama and save the North, or we're deleting your save files. Permanently." Reborn in the carriage carrying her to exile, Lia has three hours until she reaches the teleport temple. Three hours until her doomed life begins again. This time, she has a HUD, a psychic link to her brothers, and absolutely zero patience for anyone's bullshit-including her own. Armed with modern tactics, 21st profanity, and the grim skills of a soldier who's already died twice, Lia is done being the spoiled princess. The North is falling, her brothers are racing to catch up, her cold husband has no idea what's coming, and the System Admins are watching. One wrong move, and it's game over. For real this time.
