Yun Wanqing transmigrated into a book and became the pitiful and short-lived cannon fodder sister of the vicious female supporting character in the story. Thinking about the tragic fate awaiting her family, Yun Wanqing cried out in her heart. "Mother, you kindly took in the cousin, yet she covets my father and wants to become his concubine. Soon, she will harm you to death~" "Father, you were set up by the female protagonist, and after your death, your head was displayed on the enemy’s city wall to be scorched by the sun, becoming Da Wu Country’s shame~" "Elder sister is the female protagonist, but her fortune is taken away, turning her into a vicious female supporting character. Later, she is abandoned by her fiancé and tortured to death by the female protagonist’s suitors~" "Elder brother, a virtuous and noble gentleman, is betrayed by friends, ending up blind, deaf, and fighting with dogs for food in the streets~" "Second brother, a demonic prodigy, loses his memory overnight, is picked up by the female protagonist, and becomes her lapdog, helping her kill Seventh Uncle and his beloved.

As if it wasn’t enough to be hit on the head by my co-workers and boyfriend, I died at the hands of my gambling-addict older brother. Without even regretting my unfortunate death, I realized that I had possessed a supporting role in a romantic fantasy novel, which I just read yesterday. To be precise, a villainess destined to die at the hands of her husband. I know it’s cliché! ‘Possessed a villainess in a romantic fantasy novel! So this is what it feels like?’ I thought it was pretty good for the price of my unfair death. Until I realize that no matter what I do, I can’t deviate from the flow of the original. For the female lead Rizé, it’s a delightful cider series, but it’s nothing more of a bloody story for Edith, the villainess I possessed. I am the protagonist in my life. If I’m going to die according to the original story, I should at least kiss my super handsome husband! In the original story, Edith is greatly despised by her husband, but who cares, I’m going to die anyway. However… “You pretended not to be, but now you’re so hot to play with. Well, that’s good.” “Yes…?” “Satisfy me like Rigelhof’s serpent. Well, who knows? I might be interested in that body of yours.” …why is the original story starting to change now? ***** P/s: The cover and the story are not mine. i just translate them to promote their story... but the translation are mine,Don’t use it without permission.

Sydney Hart was among the last of the werewolves to find her mate in the town she used to live in. Thanks to the moon goddess turning her back on them, no one wanted to be with their mate anymore. The tradition was gone with the goddess' disappearance and with it ushered in a new era; The wolves could now be with anyone they wanted. The others who had found their mates before the moon goddess's sudden disappearance couldn't keep up with the bond of being together forever, seeing it as a heavy burden and punishment when the others could have as many females as they want. So to satisfy their selfish desires, they had to dump their mates just to have the freedom and know what it feels like to hang out with lots of females. Sydney was among the victims when her mate, Barry Grant, decided he was tired of her. It didn't help the fact that her parents disliked him a lot because they are leagues apart and tried many ways to separate them. Unfortunately, Barry had enough and dumped her. He gave up on their mate bond and their unborn son, breaking her heart. Thanks to that experience, she closed off her heart until Arthur Bruce, a mere human comes around and makes her feel things again. But then, just when things are going well between them, Barry comes back and now he wants to be given a chance to correct the hurt and have a chance with his son again. They could be one big happy feeling like in the past, he promised her. Now, Sydney is torn out between both men.

But then, she can't seem to give up on Arthur either! ~~~~~~~~~~ "I'm pregnant, Barry, I have our baby so you can't leave, please don't do this to me," Sydney thought letting Barry know this will make him not go ahead with the awful plan of abandoning her. She even had to go down on her knees just to convince him to stay. "I'm sorry, Sydney, but I don't want it. You can get rid of it, it's not too late". Would Sydney give Barry a chance and kick off their once happy relationship or would she start anew with Arthur?
