Synopsis
Meet Sophia—the true definition of a modern girl. She’s a proud Gen Z who lives and breathes K-pop, K-dramas, and the ever-evolving landscape of her country’s current affairs. Sharp-tongued, opinionated, and a master of 'cancel' culture, she never backs down from calling people out. But fate has a twisted sense of humor. After mocking a classmate for obsessing over transmigration romance novels, Sophia suddenly finds herself trapped in one. Except, instead of the old Korea , she lands in the strict but fancy — Victorian era. Worse, she crosses paths with Duke Raphael—the most ruthless, ill-tempered, and dangerously influential man of his time. In a world where her words hold no weight and her usual tactics are useless, can she outsmart the merciless duke, or has she finally met her match?

Chapter 1 - PROLOGUE

Once upon a time,

 A mysterious and beautiful woman suddenly appeared, capturing everyone's attention and sparking rumors that she had come from the future.

To her, the era she arrived in felt like a circus—one that should have been terrifying, yet strangely amusing.

Everything could have gone smoothly, but one man refused to be fooled. He relentlessly questioned her identity and the place she came from. That man was none other than the highest-ranking official of that time—the feared, terrifying, untouchable, and widely avoided Commander of the Royal Guard.

Hold up—It feels like the adjectives I used to describe that man aren't enough. That's right! They're lacking because he's downright evil, soulless, obnoxious, arrogant, insufferable, egotistical, insane, condescending, selfish, abnormal, and…

And…

I threw my pen across the room and grabbed my hair in frustration.

"This is so annoying!"

No matter how much I write about him, I have no right to criticize him. Because despite his countless awful traits, he is the most respected and revered man of his time—someone no one would dare to challenge.

I let out a deep sigh.

"What am I even fighting for?"

"What chance do I have against him when I'm nothing but a worthless weed?"

And most of all…

He is—A DUKE!
