I transmigrated into the wife of a great general. Thought it was a sweet romance novel—until I found his locked journal hidden in the study. "I was gentle with her again today. She actually believed it. How naive. As long as she's fooled, Ida stays safe." "Prepared her birthday gift. Ida's favorite style. She shouldn't notice anything."

When fate repeated itself and the blade came for her, I stepped in and took the hit. As I lay dying, I smiled at him. "Alexis, you don't have to pretend anymore."
