Synopsis
I woke up as Kayena Hill, the novel's villainess, praised as the greatest beauty in the empire. Who knew that her story would catch my attention because I was her in my past life? Destined for terrible ends, I've died twice—but I refuse to die a third time as a pawn in someone else's scheme. I'm no longer the vain and naïve princess. Now that I know how the story will unfold, I'll turn the tables around and have everyone dancing to my tune. This time, I'll be the one pulling the strings.
