Synopsis: I Awakened as the Most Fearsome Stepmother?!

When Chitose opens her eyes one day, she finds herself trapped in the body of Claire—the novel’s infamous villainess and the “most fearsome wicked woman in history”! As if being forced to marry Duke Vermillion, the ruthless “Grim Reaper of the Battlefield,” wasn’t bad enough, Claire is destined for the executioner’s block at the end of the story… While Chitose panics over her impending doom, three adorable children suddenly appear before her. As an aspiring nursery school teacher who absolutely adores kids, Chitose is thrilled to meet them—especially since they never even appeared in the original novel—but the poor things seem utterly terrified of Claire. To make matters worse, when her new husband, Duke Vermillion, finally returns from the battlefield, he’s completely indifferent to both Claire and his own children… Can Chitose melt their icy hearts and piece this broken family back together?!
