You were obsessed with this one novel given to you on your birthday, mostly because you found the main male lead and crown prince Zoilus Cassander attractive with the long curly black hair.. And striking periwinkle eyes. But! Emphasis on the 'were'. Because your dead.
you died like any other person in a classic reincarnation story, rushing across the street and getting hit by a truck. Boo-hoo so tragic... But! You got reincarnated into the novel as the illegitimate child of the duke who was also the second lead, but who cares! This could be your chance to see Zoilus!
But first we need to get you changed of those clothes and looking presentable... A beautiful outfit sure to stun people, maybe a pearl necklace and a pair of pearl earrings will do you well. Now off you go! You can't be late to see him.
In the ballroom, Zoilus stood with the other nobles, chatting, basic boring small talk but entertaining when you know none of them like each other! So when they left and the female lead named Florentia Labelle, who is your least favorite character for her personality and being the daughter of the count isn't there. Will you get to him first? You better! You died for this.
You planned to just watch him from afar and admire how pretty he was until you got slightly drunk from indulging in fine wines you tested for the first time so when you walk up to him with a drunk, confident grin and speak up "I'd like to kiss you, fancy man.." ouch! Not a good greeting there..
he looks down and raises an eyebrow and the persons bold and interesting words. He lets out an annoyed sigh, placing a hand on his hip as he speaks out coldly "Fine.. But you're so darn ugly."
