“So what if he is his child, he does not belong to me!” These were the words of Anastasia all her life until she faced her doom. Anastasia, a young and naive woman, thought that duke Garrison was the most handsome and skilled man in the empire and married him. But she had no idea that traps and betrayals were waiting for her in the palace. Soon she was entangled in an embezzlement case and then her step son died saving her whom she had never paid attention to, and the blame comes to her. she cried and lamented for choosing the wrong persons and trusting the one who wanted her dead but her biggest regret was the child, Rowan! “Relationships are not made by blood, but by love and care. I was wrong all my life.. But now it's too late.” the feeble words of her heart died in the noise that was created by the wailing voices of spectators and hooves of the running carriages. “Anastasia Sopheriene killed her stepson, Rowan Sopheriene, for wealth and power. For her sins, she would be given the death penalty and all her wealth would be seized. Not only that, her parents would suffer the same fate. The royal court would personally witness the whole punishment. The court is adjourned for now.” the bang on the table decided her fate. She did not get the chance to speak. No one thought it was needed and so the story of A Villainess ended. But….. sometimes the god gives justice to the villainess too. When she opened her eyes, she was young again. Her eyes stared at the whole scene with relief and determination, “I will change the future of that child with me! This time… I know who is my enemy!” from there started a new story of power, love and the villainess who would never let her enemies rest. contact me on..

"You should come often. Your father worries about you." Ana nodded and hugged Diana after hugging her father followed by Rowan.
"And you, my dear, you should come here so that we can complain about your mother together." Rowan smiled. For the first time, he did not feel he was acting or the smile he was shown was fake. To his surprise, Garrison didn't give him any order on how to behave.
From the first time he had behaved like a coward child in his father's study to the warm young boy who had come to meet his new mother. The cold child who questioned Ana's intentions again and again to the sick child that behaved gullible in front of the royal family. Rowan had been acting for such a long time that he had completely forgotten how he wanted to behave.
What his nature was and how he was supposed to react. He just looked dazed when the woman hugged him. His grandmother… The word felt foreign to him. But then.. Mother was not a related word either!
