Cross-Dressing Villainess Cecilia Sylvie

In a whimsical twist of fate, Lady Cecilia Sylvie finds herself reborn into the world of an otome game as its most reviled antagonist. This wouldn't be so bad if she weren't destined for a truly gruesome end! To escape the grim future awaiting her, Cecilia concocts a daring plan: rather than embrace her villanous role, she'll masquerade as a humble male attendant, infiltrating the royal palace to protect the game's heroine and steer the plot away from disaster. But navigating the intricate politics of the palace while maintaining her disguise proves to be a challenge far greater than she anticipated. With charming princes, scheming rivals, and her own burgeoning feelings complicating matters, Cecilia must master the art of deception and diplomacy. Can she rewrite her destiny and secure a happy ending for everyone, especially herself, without her true identity ever being revealed?
