Framed. Sentenced. Reborn as the villainess.

When Riley is framed for her father’s murder, justice doesn’t come with a trial—it comes with a simulation. Now she’s trapped in the role of Leanan Viermont, a notorious villainess destined to be destroyed for the audience’s entertainment. Surrounded by cruel nobles, hidden agendas, and a system that rewards her for playing the monster, Riley must sharpen her wit, her blade, and her lies if she wants to survive.

But in a world where fear is power and every smile hides a knife, the greatest danger isn’t dying like a villainess—it’s living long enough to become one.
