Survive As The Brute's Wife

**COMPLETED**"I am not worthless. I deserve to live. I will survive!" In a world where women are treated as mere ornaments and pawns, she woke up in the body of an abused Lady, with no memory of who she is. In a land that forbids magic, she finds out that she is someone with magical powers. The kind that is a threat to the Brute Emperor who is conquering all lands. And as her memory returns, she figures out that she is the once-great knight who suffered Damnatio memoriae after betraying the King she swore an oath to serve. A woman as a Knight? Ah, she had to pretend to be a man to be a Knight! Why did she go that far to be a Knight? She didn't remember. And why did she betray her king? She didn’t remember. And now, the one she shares the body with- Lady Felixa got married(?) to the direct descendant of the King she betrayed. Refusing him is not an option. She learns that the story of the Knight who betrayed the King had versions. In one version, the Knight was the Hero. There are still people who believe that the Hero will be born again to save them from the Brute. If she is the Knight, is she the Hero people are waiting for? But wouldn't that put her in odds with the Brute who is now her husband? Along with the magical power she has, she has to hide her identity as the fallen Knight from her husband – The Brute, while trying to act as the submissive Lady Felixa whose body she is occupying. To survive! But why is the Brute looking at her weirdly? He even acts weird making her feel weird. And what’s with him showering her with gifts one day and trying to get her practice swordsmanship with him the other? What secret does he hold? And who is this other Knight from her memory?

Can't Blame Her

"She wanted Marcus Zoros to be the sole heir, Lexa," Maximus said looking at the floor.

Alexandra couldn't figure out what he was thinking. He looked more angered than being sad. But just like that, the little understanding Alexandra had for Theodora vanished. Lord Zoros accepted Marcus as his son and Theodora was not satisfied with that. She wanted Marcus to be the single heir of the Zoros family. 

"She is not a good woman, is she?" Alexandra let out a sigh. 

"Don't sigh for her…"Maximus lay on her lap once more. 

Alexandra caressed his hair in deep thoughts. "Do you really know it was Theodora?" she asked to confirm. Because she couldn't understand how someone would be so filled with hate to kill two sons of another woman just for her son to become the heir. 

"It was the dark mage," Maximus said. "She's been using him for doing her bidding for a while. I only found out about it recently. I…" Maximus gritted his teeth.
