Fragments of Myself
Prologue and Author's word
Author
It's your author with one of my dearest story.
Chitra Rajlaxmi lost her kingdom in blood and fire, only to be awaken in the body of Jivika Mehta— a modern girl.
Occupying the body of Jivika, she uncovered some truths that blurred the line between present and past. Deeper she digs darker the truth become.
Her parent's planned accident, her brother's disappearance, the past Jivika's death, all pointed towards something she never wanted to acknowledge. Now she was only left with fragments of herself.
Author
So let me clarify first, this is not one of those stories which are insanely popular nowadays.
Author
Where the female lead just transmigrates to another world and just want to change the ending of someone else before stabilizing herself.
Author
Hear me out, I'm not degrading another's work, because it's their blood and sweat. I'm just clarifying that don't drop mine because you think the storyline is too similar.
Author
Have patience and bear with it. Lol
