Table of Contents
Synopsis
Everyone thinks I’m the gentle saint holding our last safe haven together—but the apocalypse has no place for saints. My mask of kindness is just that: a weapon for survival, and now a new girl with knowledge of our story wants to expose me as the villain she believes I am. When Lila, the transmigrator, arrives with future-sight and ruthless logic, she shatters my fragile community, taking my place at the center and casting doubt on my every act of mercy. But I’m not as fragile as I seem. As monsters close in and trust turns to suspicion, the lines between savior and monster blur, and even those I save begin to see what lurks beneath my smile. Will kindness be my undoing—or is the real villain the one who survives at any cost? When the new world demands monsters, how long can a saint keep her mask?
