Rise of the Unfavored Princess

I had thought that my life couldn't get worse when I walked in on my fiancé cheating on me with my best friend. But after a series of unfortunate events, I opened my eyes in a world that I had only read about in a webnovel, the Erudian Empire, ruled under the domineering, bloody reign of Emperor Helio. The worst part? I'm not even the main character! Reborn as Winter Royberg de la Erudian, I am the pitiful side character who is discovered to be a royal bastard princess due to a certain physical trait only the imperial bloodline possesses. But I know the end of Winter's story and the unwanted royal punching bag is framed as a witch and killed at age 16 on the guillotine due to the scheming of the cruel empress. An aloof, murder happy father? Check. Psycho half-sister? Check. Meddlesome author who wants me to follow the script? Double check! I don't want to die an early death again, so I'm determined not to ever be discovered as a royal again. But before I know it, I'm trapped in a palace of blood and opulence playing tricky games of power, games I have no clue how to win. How will I survive to adulthood in the imperial palace and get my happily ever after? And am I really the only person who fell into this world? *UPDATES 1-2 TIMES A WEEK* *1500 TO 3300 WORDS PER CHAPTER*

Ch. 171: One Chaotic Day - The Dawn

The darkness of dawn had not yet waned when Bishop Duvernay left his humble quarters in the twisting maze behind the Grand Temple's glittering interior. Knelt in the nave, the section of the church where the many pews spread out across the lustrous pearl-tiled floor, was a woman cloaked in black.

"Sister," the bishop greeted. "You honor me."

Placid green eyes, so unlike the icy blue chill of the bishop's own gaze, looked up from prayer. However, the empress remained kneeling.

"It is not honor that compels me to arrive. The time is ripe for me to grab someone in her inner circle without the princess ever being wiser," she announced plainly yet elegantly.

Bishop Duvernay walked around the altar to the pews, considering Empress Katya's words deeply.

"Good. I had told you that placing someone by her side would be ineffective."
