The Bigshot's Superstar Wife
Once, she was a lone assassin, a shadow moving through the underbelly of society, feared yet utterly alone. Her life ended on a cold, desolate rooftop, betrayed during a mission that should have been her crowning achievement. But death was not the end.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself in the body of Athena Demerin, the pampered granddaughter of the Northern Duke in the Asenus Galaxy. Born into privilege, the original Athena was a rising star, determined to carve out a name in the entertainment industry while keeping her noble lineage a secret.
Now, with a second chance at life, the assassin-turned-aristocrat is faced with an entirely different battlefield, interstellar fame, and family legacies. But the stakes are higher than ever when she discovers that her new body comes with an unexpected complication. She’s been secretly married to Major General Mors Jericho, a legendary but distant hero with secrets of his own.
Thrown into the glittering world of stardom and the cold corridors of military estates, Athena must balance the dreams of the body’s former owner, her duties as a "young madam," and her own assassin instincts. As she navigates these unfamiliar territories, she uncovers hidden truths about her family, the galaxy, and even her enigmatic husband.
Can a woman who lived in the shadows find her place under the glaring spotlight of fame? And will she allow herself to open up to the possibility of love in a life she never asked for?
With heart-pounding twists, dazzling interstellar settings, and the clash of two wildly different lives, Athena’s journey is one of rediscovery, resilience, and rewriting destiny.
Athena: "Major General, do you always lurk in hallways like a ghost?"
Mors: "Do you always wander your own house like a lost tourist?"
Athena: "I didn’t realize I needed a map for my home. Or are certain areas Mors-Only Zones?"
Mors: "Bold. But tell me, is this charm natural, or just for me?"
Athena: "Depends. Is your blindness natural, or temporary?"
Mors: smirking "Temporary. But even blind, I can tell when someone’s blushing."
Athena: huffing "Blushing? You’d need to try harder, Major."
Mors: leaning closer "Is that a challenge? Careful, wife... I never lose."
Athena: smirking back "Don’t tempt me to prove you wrong."
Mors: "Dinner’s in an hour. Let’s see who wins that battle first."
