PROLOGUE

The Twilight's Chronicle is a romantic fantasy web novel that tells the story of Chrisola D'Emeralia, the Crown Princess of the Kingdom of Emeraldine, and William, her loyal knight. Together, they fight the evil unleashed by Luna D'Emeralia, Chrisola's half-sister, who seeks the throne and the absolute power that comes with it.

Out of all the web novels I've ever read, this one is my favorite. Well actually… my obsession maybe.

I've read it over and over, memorizing every line, every character, and every twist, until Chrisola and William felt like real people.

Chrisola's journey and her transformation from a weak and helpless princess into a brave and strong woman who stays true to her principles as a kind person, even when the world turns against her, truly inspired me.

Of course, that's because she is helped and accompanied by the one and only, William; the strong, super cool, romantic, and handsome knight who supports her at every step. I'm sure there's no perfect main lead as flawless as him! Their love and bond… it was everything I dreamed of.

Sigh… If only I could be like Chrisola...

But unfortunately…

"Princess Lunaaa~! Where are you?"

A sweet voice called my name—Luna. And it sent a chill down my spine.

I turned my head awkwardly and saw a maid's figure approaching, her eyes scanning the room.

Run.

The word flashed in my mind, but my body wouldn't obey.

I tried to crawl away desperately, my chubby baby hands slipping uselessly against the cold marble floor. The world felt enormous, like a cruel prison, and I couldn't control my movements at all.

Everything about this tiny body is so fucking clumsy and weak. And I hate it!

"There you are!" The maid, Anna, reached me easily and scooped me up with a soft laugh. Her arms were warm and gentle, but the feeling of being restrained made panic rise in my chest.

"Oh my God, how lively! You're not even six months old, and look how far you've crawled!"

She beamed down at me as if my helpless struggle was something adorable. I tried to scream, but it came out as nothing more than a loud wail.

"Huweeee!!"

"Shh, shh, my sweet Princess Luna. Were you scared of waking up all alone? Don't worry. I'm here now. I'll lull you back to sleep. Hush now, ooh hush, little baby… Sleep, my beautiful princess…"

That's not what I want!

I want to tell her to stop. I want to tell her that I'm not Luna, that this is all wrong. But the words won't come. My mouth forms only meaningless sounds. I'm trapped in this tiny, helpless body… in Luna's body.

My mind raced.

I can't be here. I shouldn't be here. I know what happens to Luna D'Emeralia. She's the villainess… the one who craves power and will bring suffering to everyone around her. A wicked lady who will tragically die alone, while being hated, unloved, and feared by all people in this world. I know this because I've read her story countless times.

This isn't the life I wanted. I never wanted to be the villainess. I wanted to be Chrisola, the heroine who gets to live happily ever after with her beloved knight, not Luna, the cursed half-sister who's doomed from the start.

But here I am, becoming her.

I know that dreams and reality often don't align, but the situation I'm in now is truly frustrating! Right now, the only thing I want is to leave this place or wake up from this nightmare, which, unfortunately, is the reality I'm stuck in.

Because I... I don't want to live as Luna D'Emeraliaaa!!
