In My Next Life I'll Win the Heart of the Male Lead
There's nothing wrong with Adelaide's life. There's nothing wrong with being cheated on. After all, half of marriages end in divorce and most end from infidelity. There's nothing wrong with getting addicted to an otome game. After all, everybody has something they're obsessed with. There's nothing wrong with reincarnating as the villainess instead of the heroine. After all, the villainess is richer and more powerful. There's nothing wrong with the villainess chasing after one of the love interests. After all, it's not like he's the canon route. There's nothing wrong with Ophelia's life.
Rematch
"Diane!" Lucas calls urgently as he comes back to my side. "You're bleeding!"
I shake my head. "Nevermind me- look out!" I push him back behind me as Beatrix comes leaping forward, swinging her blade like a crazed wild beast, driven mad with bloodlust. I brace myself, ready to block her strike - only for her to evade, dive sideways, and slip past me - towards Lucas.
"Dammit-!" I thought her murderous rage toward me would keep her focused on me...but no. I lunge forward, once again blocking his body with mine, her blade piercing my simple leather armor like it's not even there. And, probably, at least some of my organs.
"Stay far behind me!" I tell him desperately. She probably isn't trying to kill him, but - I'm not about to let him be mained, either.
And she knows it.
I can see she knows I'll keep doing it.
