Prologue
I blinked my eyes several times to clear my hazy vision.
I pressed the soft bed, I managed to get up, and then I looked at the mirror on the wall, and I asked my self …
Can your fate be changed? That's a question I often asked myself before I came to this world . Let me introduce myself. My name is Ha-Neul. I was born in Deajeon, South Korea's fifth-largest metropolis . My family was a messed up one. My parents fight all the time but they never get a divorce . So, I always lock my self in my room . However, they were cruel and often physically abused me.my brothers were the same. I was told I was not wanted, that I should be dead. And finally after 15 long years, I moved to Seoul, in the hopes of starting a new life while starting university at Seoul National University And that's what I did. I made new friends, and enjoyed life.
One of my favorite ways to pass time was to read novels. And that's what I did. Everywhere I walked, or went I brought some books to read. The most current book that I was reading was called "Luna". The villainess in this story was named Judith heart she was in a contact relationship with duke Derrick .
Essentially, Judith was destined to be the Duchess . She studied hard for almost all her life, learning the etiquette and roles designed for the grand duchess . she threw away anything - especially relationships -that would not help her become duchess . She had a cold relationship with her parents, Ethan and Sarah heart , She was also in a one sided love with Derrick winter , who was the future duke that saw her as nothing more than an annoyance and a fool. However, she had a contact , which was all she thought she needed, as long as she held the current Emperor and empresses ambitions, she would be the next duchess . It was all set. She would marry Duke Derrick and become the future duchess . , unfortunately she did merry him but that's when everything changed.
Everyday he will bring a new woman even though he is married to her . But Judith did not care because in the end she is his wife but one day in the empress birthday party a new woman emerged from within. Her name was Nina Elaine , a lady with a blue eyes and beautiful golden hire . She changed everything. All eyes shifted towards her, as she outshined Judith in everything. The emperor and Empress were drawn to her kind behavior and warm smile. Even Judith beloved duke Derrick fell head over heels for her astonishing beauty and warmth. In the end the duke broke with the contact and Nina was chosen to be the future duchess . Judith flew into a rage, and tried to win Duke Derrick back by dragging attention to herself. This made Duke Derrick hate her even more. When that didn't work, she sought to have Nina killed. This only ended up in Judith arrest and torture by the duke himself, and Judith was ultimately beheaded for her crimes.
For some strange reason, I felt a sense of hatred for Nina . She came out of nowhere and took away the life that Judith had worked so hard for. And it hurt me even more to know that even after Judith loved Derrick , he still fell for that annoying brat Nina . And when Judith tried to hurt Nina , he was the one who sentenced her to die after having her arrested and tortured. That's basted little- I wouldn't have even bothered with him. What would I have done if I was Judith ? Kill the two of them . That's not right, I will marry his father and humiliate him. Derrick father is extremely rich and handsome and kind, so I wouldn't have even coveted power from becoming the Duchess . Instead, I would have chosen to have a good relationship with his father , and spend my days with my friends, if I managed to ever make any. However, Judith had to get married because of thet stupid contact but luckily that contact did not put Derrick or anyone name in it it say the she need to marry a man from winter family so she have three choices , as she was one of the daughters of the most noble houses, meaning she had to study all the etiquette and all the other nonsense.
Okay, I'm probably confusing you. Here is my answer: I would spend my days trying to build good relationships with his father , and then I will get married to him so that I would be happy. This way I can be his stepmom and humiliate him . But before that I would have to study to become the future duchess , to win his father over. , the thought of what I would have done if I was in Judith's place wouldn't leave my head. And that brings us to the day of my death in my first life here on earth.
It was May 1, and I was walking down a street near my house. I was only on my way to my favorite coffee shop to read "Nina Elaine " My headphones were over my ears, blasting music, and my mind was consumed over Judith and her painful ending. And that's when a truck came speeding out of nowhere. I turned around to see glaring lights approaching me at an astronomical speed. All of a sudden I heard a loud thud, and I was thrown into the air and landed on the floor. I remember hearing a woman scream and yelling to others around to get help. Please God, I thought, don't let me die like this. I still did not finish the novel . I still have so many novel's I did not finish . And that's when everything went black.
