The Day the Temple Fire Changed

Yejin wakes inside the body of the villainess she already knows is meant to die. She remembers the fire festival, the false blame, and every choice that once led to ruin, so she starts refusing the role the book gave her. Her hunter gift is smell, and it lets her read poison, smoke, fear, and weak lies when no one else believes her. That same gift pulls her into the temple repair job, where she finds the old protective colors left unfinished on purpose. The girl she was meant to hate keeps coming closer. The person she trusts most may be the one who first learns to hold her sleeve instead of her throat.
