Synopsis
Two souls destined for each other meet regardless of time and circumstance. It's called fate...
Alinea, the beloved princess of the Ritz kingdom, adored fiancée of the Flame Emperor, had it all: beauty, brains, and surprisingly… brawn. There wasn’t anyone in the whole nation who didn’t sing her praises. Her prowess in the last immortal war cemented her place in history.
But, in life, as there were winners, there were sore losers. Due to her adversary’s greed and envy, Alinea found herself set up to complete an impossible quest, that even powerful ancestors before her failed to do. Tasked to retrieve an artifact with unverified origin, she was aware that nothing awaited her but doom. With a heart filled with regrets, and thirst for revenge, she had marched on to her inevitable end.
However, death did not come even after tragedy struck. She woke up in a new world where everything was strange. What more? Instead of the beloved heroine she once was, she found herself in the body of Suzuki Ara, the most hated antagonist of all.

“Who said you can drink?”
Kou was aghast seeing the almost half-empty bottle of Cheval Blanc 1947 St-Emilion on the table.
This woman’s daft!
Out of all the bottles of red wine she had to take, it had to be the second most expensive one he had in his collection. Only 110,000 bottles were produced of it, and it cost him more than a hundred thirty thousand grand at the auction.
“I did. Why do I have to ask anyone if I can drink?”she slurred.
“Erhm.. it’s because you’re drinking my wine?” he pointed out but Ara only replied with a blink.
It was obvious that she was totally inebriated.
“Then come have a drink too,” she invited cutely as she tried to pour him a drink, and Kou, seeing as she had no plans on stopping anyway, resigned to fate, and sat next to her on the sofa, accepting the glass of wine as he did.
“So, how are your evil machinations going?”he asked conversationally, making Ara huff.
“Ha! What evil machinations? I can’t even think of any. How do I become bad anyway? I need to practice,”she answered, her tone of voice indicating how hard it was to be “Evil”.
She looked totally troubled about failing to be bad that Kou couldn’t help the twitching of his lips as he fought not to smile. “Uhuh…”
“I learned something funny though,”she continued, and Kou remained silent, letting her speak. “Do you know? Life is full or irony. It’s true that one can’t really have everything he wants.”
“Oh? What made you say so?”
Ara let out a cynical laugh. “Because in a world where everyone loved me, my only brother hated me enough to kill me. But in this world where I’m hated by everyone, only my brother stood by my side,” she said as she clutched at her heart, and pain unexpectedly showed on her face as if she was telling a story from experience.
Kou stared at the girl’s beautiful but sorrowful face.
“That’s not true,” he countered, and before she could protest he had leaned over to give her a feathery kiss on the lips.
It was so fast, it was over before she even realized what happened. She could only look at his handsome face so close to hers as Kou held her hand. “I’m here too, aren’t I?”
