My first thought: Dafuq? Why is ML a wolf? I expected it because of the title but doesn’t the male lead being a furry creep you out? Anyway, this is a little different. We have a strong FL. So far, I like her dominant personality and her skills in swordsmanship. However, her tragic backstory isn’t really sad to me at all. The way the author portrays about how FL lost everything was a little too rushed. She gets harassed by a king and then decides to get revenge by saving the king’s brother and killing the king. Soon after, she gets heartbroken by the king’s brother and dies alone. She reincarnates, LOOKING EXACTLY the same. I find that a little ridiculous. She marries the duke of Atalenta who is cursed to be a wolf. And umm, from what I’ve read so far, the plot is just the FL helping the ML turn back to a human by giving him kisses? FL is a comedic tho, “it’s not getting hard” IM DEAD

I like this so far. The plot is ehhh.. but whatever. FL’s backstory was touching. She grew up with toxic family members who did not give one fuck about her and abused her while growing up. The FL became strong asf but still was unable to please her family in the end, she tragically died while being used as a sword for 400 years. And now, she reincarnates. Surprise! She’s now determined to take down the empire by using Dylan (the ML) and training him to be a tyrant. I’m not surprised that our FL was able to seduce Dylan so easily. The art is beautiful and quite detailed. I feel like there should be more obstacles in FL’s journey to take down the empire, it’s a little bit lack-luster as she breezes through every difficulty presented to her with ease. I feel like ML is creepy asf and gets jealous easily.. you know, the yandere type that’s only nice to his crush? I don’t understand why FL wants to run away after defeating the empire though and I don’t want to bother rereading it. Maybe she doesn’t want to deal with creepy ML? I don’t know. I look forward to seeing her run away. And there are some questions that are still unanswered about how and why FL reincarnated. Apparently, another guy from the past reincarnates as well and I’m confused about it. Hopefully these questions will be answered and the author won’t leave any holes behind.
