“Gisele woke up bleeding and broken in the suffocating heat of the 1970s timber woods, just inches away from the deadly fangs of a black adder. As foreign memories crashed into her modern mind, she realized she had transmigrated into the body of an absolute fool. The only reason she was in this dangerous forest was to fetch wild game for Chauncey Beck, a spoiled city boy who treated her like a pathetic servant. The inherited memories made her stomach churn. She saw herself stealing her mother's emergency cash to buy him expensive gifts, while he offered nothing but fake smiles. She saw her family starving themselves to send him premium rations, which he secretly traded for imported coffee. Worse, she remembered publicly humiliating Ernest Jenkins, the impoverished town outcast-the very same man who had just thrown a machete to save her life from the snake, only to walk away in cold disgust. A visceral wave of shame and anger choked her. How could the original owner be so incredibly blind? She had risked her life for a parasitic leech who refused to get his shoes muddy, while treating her fiercely loyal family and her true savior like absolute garbage. But the old, foolish Gisele died in the dirt of those woods. Carried back to the safety of the farmhouse, she looked dead into her father's eyes and delivered the kill shot. "I will never marry Chauncey Beck. Cut off his food and his desk job today." It was time to starve the leech, repay her debts, and clean house.”
