Summary
Dying was a shame. Dying just as she was about to achieve her Magnum Opus was an even bigger shame, and of appendicitis no less. But oh well, it was out of her control. She just hoped she could finally catch a break in the afterlife.
Famous last words.
Now, somehow, she's the Antichrist in a cartoon she used to watch, her father is a duck-obsessed ADHD-brained mess of a man, her mother is absent at best, and she's got less than two hundred years to turn Hell into an actual centralized state before canon starts and everyone else's problems start becoming her problems.
But hey, at least she won't be bored... probably.
(Or in which, a professional chess player is reincarnated as Charlotte Morningstar, Princess of Hell, and does what anyone would do in her shoes-tear canon asunder and dance on the ashes, because she is NOT going to tip-toe around the timeline just to get disrespected by a man with a TV for a head and literally half the cast of her own damn show.)

NEW CHAPTER DROPS EVERY MONDAY 8 AM GMT
Eye the tags.
---Isabelle (Bells) Hann thought she had her life perfectly mapped out: a prestigious job at tech consultancy Larssens Ltd, an engagement to wealthy Theodore Watson, and a future built on safety and respectability. But her carefully constructed world begins to unravel around her predatory boss, Jude Larssen - a man whose brilliant mind and dangerous instincts have kept her orbiting him like a moth to flame for three years.
When Jude manipulates a high-stakes dinner with Japanese conglomerate Yamamoto Industries by claiming he and Bells are engaged, their simmering professional tension explodes into something far more volatile. As Bells becomes entangled in Jude's web of corporate machinations, late-night phone calls, and psychological games, she discovers that the line between manipulation and desire is thinner than she ever imagined.
