I fluttered my eyes open, blinking in few attempts while struggling to open my eyes with the heaviness of the eyelids, then, suddenly a bright light unconsciously clouded my sight.
Soon, I found myself laying in a soft comfy bed, with a blue blanket covered above my shoulders and my little body.
'Didn't I die ?' I looked around in confusion.
I shifted my eyes across the unfamiliar room until it stopped when I saw myself in a cheval mirror.
"What the hell?!"
I almost fell out on the bed since earlier I was nearly on the edge. However, the mirror reflected something that I've never expect to see, there I saw..
A huge nest of golden-hair...
Adorable chubby cheeks..
A plump arms and feet like a pig.
Still, a four-year-old girl in the mirror defined as pampered and cute.
Although..
A small fist pressed my chin.
I thought deeply,
She indeed looked so familiar.
Hm, forget it.
I feel a little sleepy..
Suddenly..
A pang of throbbing pain went through my stomach. This made me yelp in pain.
I was about to pat my tummy and gasped when I saw something. My eyes flashed into something at the sight of it.
What could be this mean?
A butterfly tattoo?
Strange.
But the patterns look so lovely..
Unexpectedly, someone barged into the room.
The young woman looked at me with eyes glistened with tears.
Her outfit looks like the maids.
Is this some sort of cosplay?
"Young miss, your mother..your mother." she covered her mouth to muffle her cries.
Young miss?
I looked at her in confusion.
Who is she again?
My mind still processing what's going on...
"She had been beaten by the duke..I-I m-mean your father..!"
Huh..Duke..is my father..?
Hang, on..
Why are these names are so familiar..
I looked at her with my mouth agape wide-open, with a lump rising through my throat, refusing me to speak.
"If he would keep that way, I don't think she'll survive." the maid bursts into tears.
Father is hurting the owner's mom?..
I stayed silent. Unable to speak.
My chest starting to hurt.
Pain is all I feel.
What's wrong?
Why did it feel so hurt?
I don't remember anything in this life. Unless..
She must be the owner's mother...
If the owner's mother of this body loses her mother. Then, that's something I couldn't forgive myself. This feelings..why are they so strong and rigid? It must have to do the previous owner to make me feel something. She must really love her...
Am I really reincarnated?
Is this how it feels to be reincarnated?
Waking up from a body you know nothing about..
I wonder what's the owner name.
I saw the girl earlier in the mirror.
No, way!
It could be her!
There's no way she is going to be the villainess.
I guess, the scene she has right now was the back story.
I don't even know her backstory.
I cursed.
I tried to recall my poor memory.
So,
I died.
Just a moment ago, I was in my quarters suffering from my illness. Without anyone aware of it. Soon, a blackout and woke up to a foreign world.
How classic.
Here story short, Evyvionne Rezavoie, the daughter of the duchess, Maria Rosie Lilliana. The duchess died from being murdered but it didn't state who it was. The duke went enraged and search the culprit who did. Moreover, their princess went missing after that. The duke was the only one left and begged to the king to find her daughter since they had planned engagement between his daughter and the prince.
Soon, the heroine came and took the place. The king forgot the agreement of the duke as his focus went into the heroine like a spell. After their marriage, news spread throughout the kingdom with their wedding happily ever after. While the duke, on the other hand, married another and inherited a new family.
The villainess heard the news and was provoked. Out of jealousy, she tried to kill the heroine for stealing her place but the prince came which was strong enough to defeat her so, the villainess died on the same day. No pitied her or know what she'd been through.
Because in the end, she was just a villainess. A villainess doesn't need to live happily ever after.
The maid still waiting for my response.
I know I'm going to regret this.
"Plwese take mw to them .."
I tried to speak properly but came out gibberish.
Oh yeah, I'm still a little toddler.
The maid widened her eyes as if she understood what I was saying, without blinking..as if it would suck out from its sockets.
"B-but Young miss!!!" she softens her voice, quivering.
I get annoyed by her whiny excuses. If something happen to the mother, I wouldn't forgive myself. There are things that need to be done.
I jumped off the bed and managed to stand myself however, my legs refused to move. And so, my bum directly hits the floor.
Ugh!!
I forgot.
Babies can't walk.
And also, add the chubby legs on the list.
I was unsatisfied with whoever pampered me this baby.
My mouth sets into an adorable angry mouie.
The maid tried to hide her smile but froze when I glared at her.
I raised my voice.
"Careyy mw plwes!" she stiffened.
This time she didn't hesitate and brought me to the room where my parents were.
We started to hear shouts and voices from the distance.
I heard a man's voice which could be my father.
"Bitch you could have just died." my father raised his voice coldly and strangled my mother's neck while she was quiet as tranquil as a lake.
She didn't resist nor fight back but gave him the strongest stare.
Receiving her silent treatment, the duke enraged in anger and tightened his hold on her neck.
I tried to scream to call her, but my mouth was covered by the maid's hand. She shushed me and warned not to be noisy. Or else, both of them will be in trouble.
I stayed silent and looked over the scene.
This is unfair.
I didn't hear this backstory on the book.
I didn't know the villainess background can be so tragic.
Everyone has their own ill-story.
Her mother's gaze shifted into mine and gave her last heartbreaking smile.
Until her last breath swifts away.
There, a lifeless woman, lying in the ground with a red mark on her neck.
I was stood frozen at the scene unfolds before me.
D-did she..
just give up
like that?...
But why??..
Tears began streaming down at my cheeks.
How could she?
Why can't she fight back?
She just woke up the same day,
losing her mother at the same time..?
My vision went red..
Slowly, shaking..
I curled my small hand into a fist.
I can't walk.
I can't move.
I can't speak.
I'm a toddler like a baby.
I've never met or went a chance to speak to her..
How come I let myself involved through this?
Why am I stupid when it comes to these situations?
I was about to pull the edge of the maid's dress and decided to get away from this place.
However.
I flinched when the duke turned his attention on me and noticed my presence. This time an evil smile appeared on his face while it curled upward wickedly.
"What do we have here?"
