Reborn as a Mind-Reading Empress

Falling for his warm touch despite his usual coldness, she loved him only to be disappointed and betrayed in the end. When love turns to darkness, it festers to be poisonous and consumes the soul. The naive Arabella evolved. . . . “Thank you for becoming my wife,” was her cold husband’s last words before he died, coupled with a smile that had never before graced his lips. Not on their wedding day. And not even at the birth of their only child. Emperor Ferdinand, someone Arabella loved so much, killed their son. She became a villainess and vowed revenge for her beloved son. For a decade, she used everything she could to make Ferdinand pay. Until finally, he fell to ruin. With her revenge complete, Arabella's life soon ended with her dead husband right beside her. But fate wasn’t done playing with her. All of a sudden, she was back two decades ago right after their wedding. Was it a curse or a blessing? It doesn’t matter. Because there is only one thing she needed to do. “I will ruin you in this lifetime too,” that was her hateful promise to herself upon realizing she was reborn. And in her second life, Arabella was bestowed a gift to uncover the truth. Who was wrong and who was right? Only time will tell.

I Will Protect Him

"You don't want to?" Arabella asked, closely observing Ferdinand. His answer was clear before he even said it.

"I do! I'd love to have children with you," Ferdinand blurted out.

He covered his mouth when he realized what he said. His face turned red in embarrassment.

[W-what am I even saying?! We haven't even done the act. We have to do it to have children. If I act all too excited, what if she thought I just wanted her to sleep with me? Or that I was pressuring her. Raymond emphasized it would be bad if she thought I was only after her body just like her other suitors.]

"What I meant was, when you are ready. I will try my best to wait until you are ready," Ferdinand added still acting all flustered about it.

"Thank you for being patient. When the time comes, I will surely tell you when I'm ready to be the mother of your children," she smiled at him.

'He looks cute when he's flustered.'

[She's fine with having children with me?!]
