Crimson Reign: The Villainess Reborn
Chapter 05: A Secret Letter
Chapter 05: A Secret Letter
Moonlight bled across Seraphina’s chambers as she unsealed a letter slipped beneath her door.
He’s watching you. Trust no one. Especially not the Duke.
No signature. No seal. Just elegant, slanted handwriting.
Lady Seraphina Valtaria (FL)
She burned it instantly.
Lady Seraphina Valtaria (FL)
Who knew? Who remembered? Was it someone from the future—or someone playing a deeper game?
Lady Valtaria (FL's mother)
Her mother, Lady Valtaria, entered in silks and cold elegance.
Lady Valtaria (FL's mother)
“You embarrassed Evelyne.”
Lady Seraphina Valtaria (FL)
Seraphina smiled. “Delightful, wasn’t it?”
Lady Valtaria (FL's mother)
Her mother frowned. “Be cautious. The D’Aragons are powerful. The past cannot be rewritten.”
Lady Seraphina Valtaria (FL)
“Then I’ll burn the page and write a new one.”
Lady Valtaria (FL's mother)
Lady Valtaria’s gaze lingered with something unreadable—worry? Pride?
When she left, Seraphina turned to the mirror.
Lady Seraphina Valtaria (FL)
She touched her throat where the guillotine once kissed her. No scar. No blood. But the memory was carved in her soul.
Lady Seraphina Valtaria (FL)
Caelum was watching her. Good.
Lady Seraphina Valtaria (FL)
Let him wonder.
Lady Seraphina Valtaria (FL)
Let him doubt.
Lady Seraphina Valtaria (FL)
She’d break him slowly—piece by piece—until he begged for a love she’d never give.
