Transmigrated Into The True Heiress

Eira Kingston, a feared assassin, never imagined that death would lead her to transmigrate into the body of Ephyra Allen, the disgraced first daughter of the once-powerful Allen family. But what shocked her even more was the soft mechanical voice in her mind, addressing her as "master" and informing her that her soul had returned to its original body. Eira dismissed the strange voice, thinking she was having a post-death hallucination. But waking up in a hospital, with memories that weren’t hers flooding back, she was forced to confront the truth. Ephyra’s life had been nothing short of a nightmare. Despite being the legitimate daughter, she was labeled a bastard, shunned by all, and overshadowed by her scheming stepsister, who had stolen the love of her father and her betrothed. To make matters worse, the wealth and status the Allen family enjoyed were all thanks to Ephyra’s late mother, and the only reason she hadn’t been discarded entirely was due to her mother’s inheritance, locked away until she turned eighteen. But Eira wasn’t one to be defeated by circumstances. If she was going to live Ephyra’s life, she would do so on her own terms. She would destroy those who had caused Ephyra pain, claim the inheritance that was rightfully hers, and find out who was behind her own death. Because if there was one thing Eira knew how to do well, it was to survive—and make her enemies pay. However, being a high-schooler with nothing to her name wasn’t enough. As Ephyra, she’s powerless, but as an assassin, she’s lethal. Still, even that wasn't enough until she became the contracted wife of Lyle Aelion—a powerful, enigmatic figure in the business world with a secret illness. And it turns out, the only thing that can relieve him is her scent.

A Risk With A Reward

For the three people sitting at the table, once they were one hundred percent sure of what Lyle had said, "shock" was an understatement. They stared at him in disbelief. Eira blinked once, then twice, her mouth slightly open as her mind raced, trying to comprehend the gravity of Lyle's proposal. Marriage? To him?

Her pulse thundered in her ears, and she struggled to maintain her composure. Marry him? Of all the things she'd expected—threats, blackmail, maybe even force—this was not one of them. She stared at him, trying to understand his angle, but his violet eyes revealed nothing except the cold certainty that he had already made his decision.

"You can't be serious," Eira finally said, her voice low and disbelieving.

Lyle's expression didn't change. "I'm very serious. You'll have everything you need: money, power, protection, control. And I'll have what I need—my stability, my cure. It's a mutually beneficial arrangement."
