Can you recommend stories with a female lead who is unapologetically and inherently evil? I'm looking for characters who don't have tragic backstories or trauma as justification for their actions—just pure, unadulterated malice.

^She's a deuteragonist but I think it fits

^Kindaaa fits? She is portrayed by the story as very twisted but she considers herself a good person

^If you're fine with romance, the FLs in this are pretty insane. The second one ends up regretting her actions though.
This is messy, complicated—and absolutely human. Actually made me process own thoughts and feelings too. Beautiful writing actually!! Feels very introspective and again—very human. Not much of a fan at the cheating part— but I can acknowledge why he acted like that (and of course I'm not excusing his action).They really aren't good together, but still for some reason they're absolutely crazy for each other. Would have been nice if we got more of Alex's pov, so we could truly flesh out his character—he just feels like a massive dildo that can talk. (I'm exaggerating). I don't like any of the characters, but I also don't inherently hate or despise them. They have their own flaws, past, mistakes, and qualities. If I knew them irl, I feel like their messy relationship would be something that 100% I'd be egging on. Like, why are you still together? Just break up for good already.Toxic couples still piss me off, don't think they should have got back together. But, an 8.5/10 for me!
