I am cast as the antagonist "Erika" in a novel about a harem, where I am depicted as the ex-girlfriend of the male protagonist, plotting against him. However, I refuse to conform to the stereotypical dishonest trope, and thus, it was I who ended things with him. After three years, Leo turns up unexpectedly.
"I cannot live without you. My feelings for you are still strong."
To my surprise, not only Leo, but the supporting cast also confess their admiration towards me.
"I am at peace when you're around."
Why do all these men desire my attention, despite my minor role as a villainess? It leaves me conflicted, unsure of who to choose.
