Confessions of a Petty Girl

Swati_Sharma_3600
An introspective story about subtle jealousy, buried pettiness, and the complicated politics of being a woman among women especially when the male gaze is involved. It’s a story about the contradictions we live with: how we root for other women and secretly compare ourselves to them, how we crave sisterhood but sometimes resent its rules, and how craving outer validation can shift loyalties and test our sense of self. Told with raw humor, quiet rage, and unapologetic honesty, this is not a story of redemption or resolution. It’s a confession of the pettiest kind.

Reincarnated as the Villainess — So I’ll Become the Most Iconic One

I died in Tokyo. Stupid way to go—literally hit by a delivery truck while thinking about instant ramen. Then I woke up in Isabel Nyx Raven's body. The villainess. The one the entire kingdom despises. The one who dies screaming in every single game route. Here's the thing though: if I'm DOOMED anyway, I might as well be LEGENDARY. So I learned dark magic from a 70-year-old grimoire keeper who looks like death personified. I corrupted the Crown Princess into practicing forbidden curses. I publicly humiliated Prince Aldric in front of the entire court and made it CLEAR that I'm not the desperate girl who needs his approval—I'm the one he should be terrified of. I built a cult of students who will commit crimes just to impress me. I made a deal with a sarcastic Shadowviper familiar. I caught the attention of a dangerously charming foreign prince who practices dark magic openly and looks at me like he understands exactly what I am. And I did it all while walking a razor's edge between genius and catastrophe—one misstep away from heresy charges, underworld entanglement, and the Crown declaring war on my house. The church is investigating me. Rival kingdoms are circling. My fiancé hates me. The underworld thinks I'm their newest weapon. And Prince Riku? He's either going to be my greatest ally or my most beautiful disaster. But here's what they don't understand: I'm not playing to survive. I'm playing to be UNFORGETTABLE. Even if it kills me, I'm going to make sure the world never forgets the name Isabel Nyx Raven. Watch me burn it all down. (("I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com))
