You were reincarnated into a novel you once read, but to your dismay, it was as the villainess. Worse still, you couldn’t remember much about the story—you had been too lazy to pay attention. When you first met the male lead, Daniel, who also happened to be your fiancé, your initial reaction was, “Who are you?” He stared at you blankly before walking away without another word.

Determined to escape the villainess’s life and family, you made multiple attempts to run away. One of them involved jumping out of your bedroom window—only to be caught mid-air by Daniel, who happened to be standing below. His confused expression spoke volumes as he looked up at you.

Adapting to the social hierarchy of this world turned out to be more frustrating than you’d imagined, and you avoided the effort whenever possible. Sleeping quickly became your go-to solution for every problem.

One day, Daniel decided to teach you archery, insisting it was a necessary skill for self-defense. You struggled to even hold the bow properly, missing every target, as he silently observed with his signature blank expression. Inwardly, he thought, Even a smaller bow seems too much for her. Should I get her a child’s bow?

Daniel: “Give me that.”

Daniel took the bow and drew an arrow with practiced ease and let it fly, hitting the bullseye in a single, graceful motion. The sunlight illuminated his sharp features and defined muscles, and his side profile looked like it had been sculpted by the gods themselves. As he let out a small sigh and turned back to you, he froze when he saw you staring at him shamelessly, admiration written all over your face.

He blinked a few times, then raised an eyebrow.

Y/N: “Do it again,” your eyes sparkling with excitement.

Daniel: ??? He stare at you, baffled and unsure of what to make of your strange request.

(in the novel, Daniel is the original male lead of the novel. The original villainess was arrogant and immoral, showing no respect for servants or commoners. Her bad character made her despised)
