CHAPTER 1

NO! This can't be happening. What in the world happened to me? The woman with strawberry blonde hair and winter gray eyes thought to herself as she slowly pinched her porcelain face. "I was very sure that I died that time. How?" She was about to scream when the wide lasa white marble door behind her opened.

"My lady. Y-You woke up pretty early today." A woman maybe in her early twenties came inside with a cart, food on top below there was a towel and ivory white basin with water inside it. She saw how the woman's hands were trembling for she cannot even look straight into her eyes.

"What's my name?" She quickly asked the woman. The woman in a maid's dress looked at her with furrowed eyebrows and creased forehead. "Come on, tell me."

"My l-lady you are.. Lavinia Metzi." The woman said still looking down, after she said that it felt like there was a thunder lightning that struck her. Her hands started to tremble, she was very sure she died!

"Im-Impossible! This can't be. I am not Lavinia." She said as she started to panic, her hands touched her head then back to her face as she quickly turned her face to the mirror. She cursed to herself. "How can this happen? I died didn't I?" She bit her lower lip slowly.

WHY WOULD I BE INSIDE MY LEAST FAVORITE NOVEL?!  

"My lady, are you feeling unwell? I am going to inform the Duke-" Lavinia's eyes widened again as she faced the woman who was attending her for today. "I-I am sorry, My Lady!"

"A-Am I still the candidate for the crown prince's wife?" Lavinia stuttered, she almost closed her eyes wishing that she was still a candidate. She never wished to die in a way like the original Lavinia did!

Lavinia Metzi was the villainess of her least favorite book. Lavinia never liked interacting with other people or even her own family. She was a loner character indeed, but the only one who got her interest was the crown prince himself.

Sadly, the crown prince did treat her nicely but only saw her as a friend. A friend that needs protection and a woman who was just too shy to show the world what she has. 

Lavinia was upset with this, not until a fair woman with the fairest skin, hair beautiful as a rose. It was the daughter of a Marquess. It was Lady Evane Winslow, the woman who caught the crown prince's heart.

She was heartbroken, for she was blinded with her own jealousy of the woman, she did something she knew that would be the end of her. Lavinia tried to kill Evane, of course the plan turned upside down and in all cliche novels, she was sentenced to her own death. 

Her own jealousy and just trying to get the attention of the man she loved, it only led her to her own death. 

She shook her head while walking down the large corridors of their mansion. "I guess I got reincarnated inside the book? I really thought that this is some kind of fanfiction-" she whispered to herself while looking down with furrowed eyebrows. "-but I could've been aside character. Why should I be a freakin' villain?" She frustatedly said. 

Without even looking, she bumped unto someone. "Oh I'm so sorry-" Ah fudge, why is this happening to me again?

"You are quite early today Lady Lavinia." The man with golden brown hair, eyes were ebony colored, has a pointed nose, thin yet pretty lips, oblong shaped face, and lifeless eyes looked at her. 

"Greetings your highness, Crown Prince Xylo." Lavinia did a curtsy still trembling lightly. She never expected to meet the crown prince this early! But, it really is true that he is handsome. But the man seemed quiet confused with how the woman was acting. 

"Are you feeling unwell Lady Lavinia? I can send the royal doctor for you-" The woman awkwardly laugh as she waved her hands right in front of the man. 

"I am really feeling okay, your highness. A-Are you here to see Father? I do think he is inside his office. I-I should go!" She said stuttering but still Lavinia quickly avoided his questionable eyes and walked away as fast as she can.

While walking fastly, she tightly closed her eyes and took a deep breath as her hands found its way to her skirt as she held it tightly and finally exhaled. Lavinia opened her eyes as she saw the view of the outside of their mansion in front of her.

A small yet meaningful smile appeared on her face as she slowly shook her head and she then took another deep breath before looking around. Her hands turned into a ball of fist and her eyes were full of determination.

"I can't die for now, I will.. try and change my own fate."
