Reborn as the Ignored Villainess

Pain. That was the last thing you remembered. The cold pavement, the scent of blood, the distant murmurs of uncaring strangers. Your body broken, vision fading, mind clinging to the haunting question: "Was I ever truly meant to exist?" Then, darkness.

You had always been invisible. Unwanted by your parents, a shadow in their perfect lives. You sought love, giving it freely to the man who became your world, protecting him from afar, believing he would see you. He never did. You died watching him love someone else.

But then, you opened your eyes. You were back. Eighteen again, in your opulent, cold bedroom. Memories of your past life, your suffering, and the crushing truth flooded back: This world is a novel, and you were just ink on a page, written to highlight others. Your fate was merely a plot device.

No more.

You clench your fists, a bitter laugh escaping your lips. You know the real truth now. The man you loved, the one who never saw you, was the real male lead. And you? A forgotten pawn. But a broken pawn doesn't follow the rules.

This time, you will burn the story to the ground.
