My love, on her journey to resurrect me, fell in love with someone else.
When I woke up, Seraphina asked me what I wanted. I was about to say I wanted to finally have the wedding we never got to finish.
But in that instant, lines of text began to scroll through my vision.
**"The FL is so devoted. She became the freaking Celestial Queen and still didn't forget to resurrect her mortal sidekick."**
**"Seriously, this sidekick has no shame. He just got brought back and he's already demanding things. Our ML is the one who fought and bled beside her for a million years!"**
**"Whatever. He'll just get taken back to the Celestial Realm, cause a bunch of drama, and get cast aside. That's when the FL will realize our ML is her true love!"**
I considered this. Then I looked at her and said, "I want a separation."
* * *
Seraphina froze.
She looked almost exactly as she had before I died. Even more beautiful, more radiant.
"Rhys," she said, her voice trembling with disbelief, "are you joking?"
**"A toxic, competitive guy like him wants a separation? This makes no sense!"**
**"This old man is obviously using a separation to manipulate her. What a tool! I can't believe the author wrote such a trash character!"**
**"Just wait, our ML is about to show up with the kid. Get ready for the sidekick to get put in his place!"**
The words floating before my eyes were vile. According to them, I was seeing the live-chat comments for a fantasy romance epic titled *The Celestial Queen's Rebellious Love*.
Seraphina was the female lead, the "FL." A prodigy of immense talent, aloof and proud. In order to save her "white moonlight" husband—the first love who died shielding her from a divine trial—she embarked on a long, arduous journey to attain godhood.
That husband was me.
On her journey, she met Kael, the "ML"—the male lead—a roguish half-demon, half-celestial. They were rivals at first, then friends, supporting each other and growing stronger together over the course of nearly a million years. Kael confessed his love for her many times, but Seraphina always refused, holding my memory in her heart.
Until one day, facing a trial she couldn't overcome, she joined with Kael. United their essence.
And conceived a child.
Twice.
The first was a son. She was now pregnant with their daughter.
And me? According to the "plot," after my resurrection, my personality would warp. I would become consumed with jealousy, constantly fighting with Kael for Seraphina's affection. I would even try to frame him for crimes, leading to a confrontation so stressful that Seraphina would miscarry.
Filled with hatred for me, she would finally strike me down during one of my jealous fits. A single blast of crimson light.
And I would be annihilated, body and soul.
What a joke.
