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.

Interrogation

As soon as the car stopped beside one of the numerous parked cars in the compound, Eira opened the car door and got out. She walked with quick strides toward the entrance, where Han stood waiting for her.

"Miss Ephyra, please follow me. They have been taken into the dungeon," Han said in his usual emotionless voice, gesturing toward the side of the mansion where an inauspicious opening led to an iron door further ahead.

So there was another way into the dungeon aside from inside the mansion. It made sense.

The iron door was barely visible amidst the ivy growing along the stone walls. How it thrived in such a place, Eira didn't understand, so she moved her gaze away and followed Han.

The heavy door creaked open as Han led the way, revealing a dimly lit staircase spiraling downward into the earth. The air grew colder with each step, and the faint scent of damp stone and iron wafted up from below.
