Eight years later...

"Lady Evaine, where are you?"

I heard Merry calling me whilst I am reading my book beneath my bed

"I am here, Merry," I stated as I got out

"Oh my, what are you doing beneath your bed, your highness?" She asks, "I must clean you at once, hold on a second,"

"I am perfectly fine, Merry, a little dirt in my garment won't hurt no one,"

"I know that very well, but the head maid will punish me if she see you with dirt on your clothes, come on,"

She carefully untie the laces of my dress in my back and cloth me with another heavy layers of gown.

"Have you seen her majesty, Merry?" I asks

"She was in the political meeting with the duke from the house of Azerael, would you like to see her, lady Evaine?"

I shook my head, "I must not disturb her if she's busy. I want to read my books again,"

"Well then, as long as you promise that you must not go beneath your bed again,"

"Yes, Merry,"

"Do you promise?"

I joyfully nodded my head as a response.

"Good, anyway, her majesty would like to see you, lady Evaine," she stated

"May I know the reason why her majesty summoned my presence?" I asks

"She have something important to tell you, you must go and see her," Merry held my hands and as she guided me to her majesty's room

"You majesty, she's here," Merry stated

The queen's face is filled with delight after she saw me, she dashes towards me and hugged mr, "Evaine~ So lovely to see you,"

I simply smiled at her, she then kissed my forehead and stated, "I am glad to announce that you will be starting you first day of Solomon Institution of Royalties and Aristrocats tomorrow, aren't you excited?"

What...?

Me? Going to school again...?

"Is there something wrong, Evaine? You look pale..... Merry, fetch her some water this instant!" The queen commanded

"Y-Yes, your majesty,"

I saw Merry rushed towards the door before I felt my body fall in to the cold floor of the queen's room

"Evaine! What happened to you all of the sudden?!" The queen asks, she then gazed at her other servant, "Call the physician!"

"Right away, your majesty!"

"Hang in there, Evaine!" The queen carries me in her arms, I managed to hear the last words she said before I passed out

I woke up inside my chambers, with her majesty and Merry on my side

"Finally, you're awake!" The queen hugged me, "Oh, I was so worried, Evaine..."

I don't know what happened to me all of the sudden... Was it because of my past trauma?

School

Even that word scares the damn out of me

"I- I don't think I want to go to school..." I uttered

"But you have to, Evaine, as a future ruler of Mortimer Empire, you have to embrace your life as a princess. I am not saying this to put a lot of pressure on you, Evaine, but this is for your own good," The queen said

"I'm scared.... What if I die again?" I mumble

The queen seems perplexed by what I said

"No one will hurt you, Evaine, you don't have anything to worry about." She said, "You must rest for now, Merry will make your early dinner today, then we'll talk about enrolling to Solomon Institution tomorrow morning, okay?"

I nodded, however deep inside I don't want to

Both Merry and her majesty left my room, I am all alone in the silent ambience

I closed my eyes, as far as I recall, Evaine will meet her greatest nemesis, the Gibbethon siblings.

Caius Gibbethon, the oldest of the Gibbethon siblings and also the heir of the throne, and Chrysalis Gibbethon, Evaine's rival.

In the novel, Chrysalis is the meanest, and Caius is the nonchalant one. However, he's very protective over his little sister and would do anything for her.

Sounds cliché, however, the novel didn't say that he's the main leading man..... Or maybe he is.... How should I know? I died before I could even get the chance to finish the book.

If I screw up this life, I'll die again! That's what always happen to every villains I know! They suffer from a very brutal death that the heroine gave to them! Should I change my name as soon as possible!? Just kidding, that'll ruin everything, and worst, I might call out for being an imposter or a mentally retarded person!

I'm overthinking too much, it's hurting my brain

What should I do!?
