The Snow Leopard Baby of the Black Leopard Family

A hybrid child rejected by my maternal grandfather for lacking inherited abilities from my father's bloodline, I died from his cruelty. Reincarnated with memories intact, my predicament hadn't improved—submit to the same abuse and perish anew, or appeal to the father who despised me.

'I refuse to die again.'

With a locket clutched in trembling hands, proof of my connection to the Black Leopard family, I chose to face my hostile father.

"Please... let me remain here."

I asked only for protection until adulthood, then I'd leave and live independently without burden. This time, I'd be the perfect daughter.

Somehow, nothing went as expected...

"My dearest daughter, anyone who touches you will feel my fury."

The father I believed hated me became my greatest protector.

"Perfi, stop hoarding Thiel's hugs. Girls are fragile during this season, or so they say."

"That's absolute nonsense. Thiel loves my affection."

These brothers who terrified me showed endless devotion instead.

"Thiel, I'm bestowing the Black Leopard family leadership upon you."

My paternal grandfather's shocking announcement left me stunned.

Didn't they all resent me?
