⚔ duke of the north

After being betrayed and murdered by her greedy stepfamily and her own lover, Pereshati Jahardt mysteriously awakens in the past before her death. Determined to change her fate and take revenge, she proposes a contract marriage to the feared yet powerful Grand Duke Therdeo Lapileon. But as she enters his household, she uncovers a terrifying family secret that may be even more dangerous than the enemies who once killed her.

Therdeo Lapileon:

Reborn inside a novel, she realizes she is the doomed villainess destined to die at the hands of her own husband—used only as a pawn in her family’s political marriage. Forced to wed the North’s greatest paladin, a man fated to destroy her family, she must survive his cold hatred and the scorn of everyone around her. With death waiting in the original story, she has only one desperate plan to change her fate.

“I’m in love with you—so please save me."

After possessing Fiona, the novel’s doomed final villainess, I find myself six years before the story begins and sent to war at only thirteen. Hated by her family for being illegitimate, my only advantage is Fiona’s genius magic. But when I encounter the young male lead on the battlefield, I realize saving him may be the only way to survive—and prevent the world’s destruction.
