HIDDEN BENEATH THE ELEGANCE
READING AGE 16+
In her first life, Cassia Vale was not a hero.She was the government’s most feared enforcer.An assassin raised inside a secret organization. A woman trained to infiltrate kingdoms, eliminate targets, survive torture, and disappear without leaving evidence behind. She was beautiful, cold, intelligent—and utterly lethal.Until she was betrayed by the very organization she served.After dying in an explosion during her final mission, she wakes up inside the body of Lady Seraphina Devereux—the infamous villainess of a fantasy empire.A spoiled noblewoman.A jealous fiancée.A cruel bully obsessed with the crown prince.Or so the story says.But the moment Cassia opens her eyes, she realizes the truth.Seraphina was never the villain.She was abused. Drugged. Manipulated. Framed.Every “crime” attributed to her had been orchestrated by her stepmother—the elegant Duchess Helena—who wanted her own daughter to become queen instead.And Seraphina?She was merely the disposable obstacle.Unfortunately for them…The girl they tried to destroy is gone.And in her place stands a monster wearing her face.

The moment Sir Rowan Creed left the Devereux Estate, the atmosphere inside the manor changed.
Not visibly.
Not to ordinary people.
But Cassia had spent an entire lifetime reading battlefields hidden beneath smiles.
And tonight, the Devereux household had become a battlefield.
