Why these tropes fit
A dying woman named Rae seizes a second chance at living through a magical bargain, waking in the fantasy kingdom of her favorite book series. She discovers she is the villainess in the Once and Forever Emperor's tale, not the heroine. Refusing her scripted bad end, she rallies a wildly disparate band of villains—an axe-wielding maid, a shining knight with dark moods, a homicidal bodyguard, and a playboy spymaster with a golden heart and a filthy reputation—under her evil leadership to plot a different fate. As the body count rises and the Emperor's fury intensifies, Rae and her unlikely allies battle to rewrite the story and survive the final chapter.
