I opened my eyes inside a horror novel I barely remembered.

Juyeong had possessed Reyna, the fallen baron’s daughter.

‘I must not die. In the original work, I’m the first to die, but I can’t let that happen.’

She remembered being killed by the male lead in the novel and desperately tried to avoid meeting him.

“You must never look into his eyes.”
“…Yes.”
“You must not speak to him, and if he speaks to you, you must not answer.”

But because of debt, she was forced to attend to the man…

Bang bang bang bang bang.
The iron bars shook. Reyna screamed madly. Then he began to laugh as if he had gone insane.
What could be so funny? Her life was hanging by a thread.

Bang bang bang bang bang.
The iron bars shook again.
He looked exactly as he did in the original work. He let out a loud roar.

Perhaps this was her last chance to run away.

Reyna quickly turned and ran. Her breath grew ragged, until she was on the verge of fainting.
