Twenty two year old Fumiko goes to sleep rage-scrolling a “generic straight romance” otome game and wakes up inside it with a holographic HUD floating in front of her face. Title:Crimson Heirs of Everflame Player Character:Lady Fiametta von Ardentis Role: Villainess / Final Calamity Status: Terminally Ill (Irreversible) Genre:FIRE The body in the mirror isn’t her own: it’s the outrageously beautiful noblewoman destined to be the game’s last boss and most hated villainess. In the original *Crimson Heirs of Everflame*, Fiametta’s only endings were imprisonment, execution, or a beautifully animated death. Now, the system insists her illness is incurable even as she feels disturbingly healthy and the so called “FIRE” genre quietly explains itself: heightened emotions, irreversible consequences, and “reality bleed-through.” Worse, all the flags are wrong. The four powerful heroines who were supposed to loathe Fiametta now have their affection maxed out: * Crown Princess Seraphine , who announces their political engagement and clings like a devoted fiancée who would burn the world before letting Fia vanish. * Knight-Captain Elira, the empire’s sword, assigned as Fiametta’s personal escort. * Archmage Lyriel , whose cold logic melts whenever Fia’s name is mentioned. * Saintess Mira, the empire’s holy light, who prays for Fia with frightening intensity. In the game, they were routes Fumiko chased as a player. In this world, they are women who love Fiametta too much to let her go and perhaps too much to let her be free. Caught between a body marked by a terminal countdown, four heroines whose love already burns at maximum, and a system that treats reality like a script it can overwrite, Fumiko has to think like the gamer she used to be: * Map the routes in a world that no longer follows its own code. * Discover what “FIRE” really demands from its players. * Hack a fate labeled irreversible before the genre turns her life and the women who love her into ash. In a universe where love is fuel and every choice can ignite a catastrophe, the villainess of *Crimson Heirs of Everflame* must decide: Is she trying to survive her own story… or willing to burn with them, if that’s the only ending left?

He’s sunshine. He’s a cold blade. They’re doomed from the start. -------------------------------------------------------- Alex, the Crown Prince of Vellara who wants anything except a throne, wakes up in a brothel on the morning he’s supposed to meet his Court Mage, William. A man with cold eyes, sharper wit, and a past that turns touch into danger. Their first meeting crashes and burns so publicly that the king snaps and delivers an ultimatum: "One week to get along, before you're magically bound for life". Alex refuses to be tied to someone who clearly despises him; William refuses to serve a prince who shows up late and smiling. So they strike a secret pact: cooperate, sabotage the binding, and find a way to send William as far from court as possible. Simple. Clean. Emotion-free. Until they’re first mission becomes a deadly trap. When enemies start hunting them through lonely corridors and silent forests, saving each other turns into instinct, not duty. And the magical bond they wanted to avoid may become the one thing that might keep them alive. Forced proximity, slow-burn longing, and sharp edges softened by accident. A sunshine prince and his guarded mage caught in a fate neither of them chose.
