CHAPTER 1: HER PROLOGUE

[ LEIANA POV ]

I got hit by the truck and died. When I opened my eyes, I was already inside the story possessing the character's body...

That is what I wanted to tell you but honestly, the only truth was that I transmigrated in the story I read and possessed the character's body. That is the truth but I did not get hit by a car. In my previous life, I am a presidential bodyguard.

I died after being shot by a sniper. The target was the President but I noticed the red dot on his suit and my body moves on its own. I hugged the president and instead of him, I get received the bullet. That was the last day of my being as the presidential bodyguard.

Now, I am the pitiful mother villain who will die at the hand of her son...

"Mommy!" a five-year-old little boy ran towards me with a bright smile on his face.

"My darling!" I bent down and opened my arms wide. "Did you have fun?"

"Yes! We had fun!" he beamed with his big circle of sparkling crimson eyes.

"My baby is really cute!" rubbing my cheeks to his.

The little child giggled. "Hehehe... I love mommy!"

I stopped rubbing my cheeks and looked at my son. "You do?" I asked with doubt on my face.

"Of course! Mommy is the best!" as if he is shouting it to the world, raising both of his small hands.

"I love my darling, Leitz, as well!" I hugged him tightly.

If you wondered why I had a son let's go back to when I first arrived in this novel world...

5 YEARS AGO

When I opened my eyes. I can say that I am alive after all. I am breathing and I can feel the sun hitting on my skin coming from the window. I looked at the ceiling and slowly looked around.

This room is unfamiliar to me. After I got shot, where did they bring me? This is not a hospital. There is no such hospital where it looks like a wooden small room. This... What could I say about this room? It has the ambiance of staying in a tree house.

I slowly sat on the bed where I was slouching. I felt something strange in my belly and am having a hard time sitting up. I pull away the blanket that covered my body. My jaw almost fell together with my eyes on what I saw.

"AHHHHH!" I yelled out.

The door swung open. A woman the same age as me I entered hastily.

"Leiana? What happened?" looking flustered and with a worried face.

I looked at the woman who entered inside who was now standing beside my bed.

"Who are you?" I blurted out.

The lady flinched at what she heard.

"Y... you don't know me?" she stuttered.

"Should I know you?" looked at her confusedly.

"How could you forget your friend? I am Vera... Vera!" she cried.

Vera? Wait what did she call me? Leiana?

"You called me Leiana?"

"Yes, that is your name..." Vera gasped. "Don't tell me you don't remember your name as well?"

"..."

"I will call the doctor now!" Vera dashed out of the room.

I was left alone. I remembered my belly and looked at it again. The dress I was wearing was taking the form of a big round belly.

"Oh my god! Did they make me a guinea pig for their experiments? What kind of species did they put inside of me?" I said hysterically.

After a couple of minutes, Vera came back together with a middle-aged man. The two of them walked toward me.

"Who is he?" I inquired.

"He is a doctor, Leiana. So, don't be afraid." Vera reassured me.

The doctor checked my pulse and my body condition.

"She is fine. Maybe she hit her head harder than we thought. The reason why she lost her memories," the doctor explained.

"Will she regain her memories back?" Vera asked worriedly.

"I couldn't tell. However, if we forced her to remember, it might give a bad effect on her mental health."

"I see..." Vera disheartens.

"Then I will take my leave now, Lady Vera."

"Yes, thank you, Doctor." She gives him a faint smile.

The doctor leaves the two of them. Vera was staring at me with teary eyes.

"How could this happen?" she distressed. "However, I am glad that you are okay and the baby is."

I perked up at what I heard. "Baby?"

Vera paused and looked at me. "Yes. You are pregnant..."

"Pregnant?" My eyes widened.

"Yes, pregnant... impregnated... carrying a child..." she said casually.

My mind went blank. I don't know how to think about this situation, what to say or what to do. Me, who got shot by a gun, hit by a bullet, out of the blue, became PREGNANT? I didn't know a bullet can make a woman pregnant!

It was just a gun, for my belly's sake! It isn't manliness! My Goodness! How come I got pregnant from being shot by a GUN?

"Why is your face pale, Leiana? Are you feeling ill somewhere?"

I just gawp at her.

Vera who is worried suddenly reached toward me, grabbing both of my shoulders and shaking me.

"Leiana? are you okay? Leiana!"

I who died at the age of twenty-five years old, single, and never been in a relationship, saving the president woke up one day being PREGNANT? What is this UNJUSTICE situation? It was a bullet, shoot out from the gun, which shot me! And not those things shoot out from a mere MAN!

Why will I go carrying this heavy ball-like the belly of mine without experiencing the so-called HEAVEN in making this? Where is my JUSTICE? Give me JUSTICE!

"Vera..." I sat up straightly and stared at her with seriousness.

"Y... yes?" Vera startled.

"Who is the father?"

"T... that's I... I don't know."

"What?" I blurted out in disbelief.

"I don't know since you never told me who is the father you are bearing. You never answered me no matter how many times I asked you..." he answered honestly.

"Huh?" I muttered dumbfounded.

How could this be? HOW COULD THIS BE? Someone made me this and was not held responsible? Did someone take advantage of me and then just leave me alone after filling himself? Letting me carry his product of satiating? After experiencing that so-called heaven alone, by himself, he will just leave like that? THAT GREEDY, SELF-CENTERED JERK BASTARD!

If I ever found out who was that man who blasted his manliness inside of me. I will surely CHOKE.HIM.TO.DEATH! I feel the fire burning within me to find that man this instant and let him pay the debt he owes me.

A loud slap was heard and I realized my head is already facing the other side.

"Did you come back to your senses now?" Vera asked with hesitation.

I looked at Vera while touching my cheek. "Why?"

"Leiana, what is happening to you? You look like you wanted to chew someone alive," Vera looked troubled. "A...and you are gripping my wrist tightly and seems like you were not on yourself."

"I was?"

"Yes, looked at this..." raising her wrist with a fingers mark on it.

"I... I am sorry."

"It's fine. I know you are going through hardship..."

I breathed out and calmed down myself. First thing first, before I can choke that man blasted his manliness to me. I should get more information about my situation right now. Let's start asking with...

"When I will be giving birth?"

"Oh, the doctor said it was around this month," Vera said happily.

"WHAT?" I blurted out and fell unconscious.

Suddenly an image of letters showed up and a woman was reading. Hey! That is me reading! What I am reading? I approached and looked at the book.

"Leiana Merlette... Leitz Galhardo... Akhazriel Galhardo..."

I stopped and realized. That is right. It was the names of the characters in the novel I read. The last time I read a novel was when my college days. I totally could not remember the specific details of the events or the title. However, I do remember the names of the characters that are always mentioned in the book and those remarkable events.

All I can remember was that Leitz was the rival of the male lead Prince Callum. Leitz was the son of the duke. Leiana is Leitz's mother who killed the duke. However, Leiana is against the female lead and in the end, Leitz killed his mother.

"What an unfilially child..."

The surrounding suddenly changes. I suddenly stood near the water and I was surrounded by trees. Am I in the forest?

"Lei...a..."

"Leia...a..."

"L..."

Huh? Is someone calling me? I looked around. Wait... what? Since when did that name become mine?

"Since you possessed my body," a lady's voice answered.

I was startled when I heard someone answer behind me. I turned around and saw a lady with dark red hair, porcelain skin, and striking beauty.

"Uhmm... Who are you?"

She smiled at me. "I am Leiana."

"You are Leiana?" I repeated her words and like a lightning, it struck me. "You are Leiana Merlette?"

"Hmm!" she nodded while smiling.

"Then..."

'Since you possessed my body.'

I dashed toward the water and looked at my reflection. I held back my breath when I saw my reflection, looking like her.

"This..." I faced her again.

"Yes, you are inside of my body."

"Then, are you here to take it back?" confirming my conclusion.

She shakes her head. "No. I already died."

"Pardon?" I blurted out in surprise.

"I got died when my head hit the ground after dodging the carriage, running toward me."

"Are you saying that I live in your corpse instead?" I said in disbelief.

She chuckled. "You are funny. Of course not. The reason why is my body alive now is that your spirit possessed it."

"I still don't get it."

"The body will die if no soul is living in it. As I died at that moment, my soul separated from my body. However, for some reason, your soul entered my body that is why now you possessed it."

"I snatched your body?" I gasped.

She shakes her head. "It is yours now. I gave up on the thought of living that is why my soul separated from my body. However, your soul is still lingering to live, the reason why you entered my body."

"Oh..."

"Since you owned that body, you are now Leiana."

"..."

She smiles. "As the previous owner, before I left. I want you to do me a favor."

"Favor?"

"Please, seek out the truth and reveal it."

"What do you mean?"

"I just heard their conversation. But I don't know the whole story," she said looking disturbed.

"Who is having a conversation?"

Slowly she is fading.

"Leiana?"

She smiles at me with pain in her eyes. "I trusted him, yet he betrays me."

"Who?"

Just before she vanished totally, I saw tears in her eyes.

"Please tell my son, I love him."

I reached out my hand to her but she was already gone. I open my eyes and darkness welcomes me. Only the moon gives light inside the room. Where am I again? I looked around. Memories of earlier flashed in my mind. I am still lying in the bed and my hand is in the air reaching out for something.

I shut my eyes tightly and groaned, putting down my hand. I heard the door open and closed. I opened my eyes and saw Vera's anxious face.

"Thank goodness!" Vera hugged me tightly. "You suddenly fell unconscious I got worried."

"Uhm... Vera, as you know I lost my memories. So, can you tell me about myself?"

"Of course! Your name is Leiana Merlette..."

Ack! Hearing it for the nth time today, I am already positive that I did become Leiana Merlette. I transmigrated and became the mother of the villain.

"Vera, can I have a mirror?"

"Sure..." Vera grabbed the mirror at the side table and gave it to me.

I received the mirror and looked at my reflection. I wanted to throw the mirror but held back myself because of Vera. Just how do you expect me to accept this all at once? I sighed.

If I suddenly went into a frenzy here, Vera will think that I have gone mad. I gaze again at my reflection. I just notice the badge that wrapped around my head. So, she got hurt badly.

From the badge, my gaze traced from her hair to the details of her face.

Dark Red hair, a pair of yellowish golden eyes... Damn this thing!
