Plot
Chapter: 1
The first chapter of Cat in the Chrysalis, begins with Kit, the female protagonist, reminiscing about her lover, Edwin Arthur Winston, and the sunset. To Luni, her lover holds the essence of sunset because that’s how they first met.
While she was nostalgic and contemplating her old golden days, her husband Luni came. Though he was a handsome and thoughtful man, Kit didn’t have feelings for him.
He was having an affair with her sister, Rosaline Gerald. Her sister was the apple of her father’s eye whereas Kit was the bane of his existence; because her mother left the world while giving birth to her.
After being castigated by her father, she rushed to the library and met Edwin Arthur Winston. She instantly fell in love. Kit dropped her book in awe. He came to pick it up.
When she bent too, their fingers lingered and eyes met. She ran away without thanking him. Afterward, she went to the Library for the next 6 months to see him.
They had frequent eye contact. After some time, he stopped coming to the library. Kit became restless. She got to know that he was dead.
Edwin was the Emperor’s son. His carriage overturned on his way to the palace resulting in his death. Though he was a prince, his funeral was arranged on a small scale.
Kit went to the funeral and burst into tears. She was thinking whether he knew that she used to watch him secretly.
Kit decided to marry the proposal which came to her. It was Luni. She was regretting why she didn’t talk back then.
Now comes the plot twister. Kit returned to the past. Rosaline was waking her up because a proposal came for Kit. She realized she was 16 and living in a different house
The same thing happened when Luni came to see her and asked for her hand. History was repeating.
This time she did it differently. Kit said she didn’t want to marry Luni!
Chapter: 2
This was her chance to change her fate for good. This was her chance to unite with Edwin.
Leaving everyone, she went to the library. Edwin was alive! Kit couldn’t control her emotions after seeing him.
Edwin felt uncomfortable by seeing such gestures of a stranger and behaved coldly.
She was determined that she would save Edwin. The next day, she asked Edwin to not get on the carriage to save himself. He didn’t pay any heed to her by saying that he would die someday; everyone will.
He asked her how she knew about this. Kit told him about her time traveling and she wanted to save him.
When he asked her the reason, after whining a lot, she confessed that she loved him and wanted him to be alive.
Chapter: 3
After hearing her Edwin said that he wanted to get on that carriage more and make everyone suffer. He implied that he wanted to die.
Kit said she would never disturb him again if he answered what he gained from dying. He replied that it was salvation. He would be free from this world.
His words were playing in her head the whole night. In her dream, she saw that Edwin died and saw someone too.
The next day Kit ran to the library. She tried her best to bring out the will of living from Edwin’s soul.
She said he should live for her. Suddenly Kit saw the person whom she had seen in her dreams the last time. She was pondering if Edwin saw him too.
Edwin grabbed her hands out of the blue and said he would show her why he didn’t want to live.
Kit told him about the ghost. When she described his appearance, Edwin couldn’t believe her words. The ghost was Edwin’s late father!
Chapter: 4
Edwin realized that his father was watching him. Then Kit remembered that she saw him at the triumph celebration.
The soul of his father had come to instruct him to live. Kit passed his instructions to Edwin.
Edwin promised to not get on the carriage in exchange for a deal. The deal was Kit would pass him every message of her father.
When Kit came, he kept his promise and she was relieved. She went back.
The next day, Luni came to her house. He came there to take an order of dress given by Marquis for Kit’s 19th birthday.
Chapter: 5
While giving measurements, Kit was comprehending that Luni married her before to expand his boutique. She wanted him to be happy in this life.
She came across a book that Edwin left behind. It was his father’s book. The story had an uncanny resemblance to her and Edwin’s story.
While they were having their childish fights, suddenly the ghost of Prince’s father appeared. He said something.
Edwin desperately wanted to know it. Kit told him that before knowing that they both had to research the book.
Chapter: 6
Though Edwin didn’t agree at first, he was compelled by Kit later on. They went to a cafe together.
Edwin didn’t know her name. He made fun of her name by saying “Kitty.” Kit’s grandmother used to call her that when she was alive.
She cried while telling Edwin this. Later she said that his father said sorry. Edwin wiped off her tears.
Chapter: 7
Kit saw in her dream young Edwin at his father’s funeral. The ghost of his father asked her to bring Edwin his salvation.
She was thinking of meeting Edwin. Suddenly Lonnie came with her dress. When she put on that dress, he was mesmerized.
Lonnie talked to her flirtatiously and asked if she would invite him on his birthday. As Kit was not feeling well, Lonnie was about to leave.
Kit stopped him and asked if she knew about Prince Edwin. Lonnie labeled him as “the abandoned prince.”
Chapter: 8
Kit became very curious to know about Edwin’s story. Edwin was supposed to be the King.
When his father passed away, the throne was given to the king’s younger brother. Edwin’s mother married him.
Edwin remained left out. He was lonely. That was the reason behind his twisted personality.
She went to the library and returned him his handkerchief. As usual, Edwin was very annoyed.
Kit asked her whether the handkerchief was important to him as it had his nickname “ED” in the corner.
Edwin remembered his past. He said he didn’t need it anymore.
Chapter: 9
Kit told him that they should make a plan to talk about his father’s ghost. The ghost appeared again and told Kit something.
When Edwin asked her, she said she would tell him if he came to her birthday celebration. She was waiting for Edwin at her balcony.
When she looked back, she saw Lonnie!
Chapter: 10
Lonnie gave her a present. He was about to say something. All of a sudden, Edwin arrived.
Rosaline came to talk to Edwin. Ignoring everyone, he took Kit with him to talk in private. Kit said, that day his father asked for his forgiveness. When Edwin heard this, he was shocked.
He broke down. He was contemplating everything. He was dying internally every day after his father’s death.
Chapter: 11
Edwin brought her to the palace to tell her more about himself. Everyone assumed Kit was his girlfriend.
Before opening up, he made it clear that he didn’t have any feelings for her and that she could not interfere in his life.
He told her that when he returned to the palace after getting chased out, a carriage was sent for him. When he got on it, it met with an accident.
At that time he felt like he was dying. Suddenly he was returned to a week before that day. Like Kit, he also kept seeing his father’s soul.
It kept recurring to him. Edwin kept dying and became alive after a while.
When Kit asked what the possible reason could be, he said she was the reason.
Chapter: 12
Richard told him that the event he was supposed to attend by getting on the carriage, was cancelled. This was different. Edwin was feeling that he was poisoned.
He said it happened because of Kit’s intervention. They came to a consensus that they would figure out the reason behind the poisoning.
This chapter ended with Kit opening up the birthday present Lonnie gave her.
Chapter: 13
Kit reached to Edwin’s place. Their prime suspects for poisoning were Richard and Mary who served Edwin.

Edwin asked her to go home. While going home, Kit saw Richard at Lonnie’s shop.
Chapter: 14
She went inside to see Richard. There was a suitcase. Richard said he came there for Edwin’s clothes.
He asked how she was so close to Edwin. Kit replied that they met at the library. She left the place.
Lonnie called her from the back and gifted him a brochure. He requested her to wear it with the dress. When she went to the library, she bumped into Edwin.
Chapter: 15
Edwin made her promise that she would never drink anything randomly. He said he found something fishy.
After going to the Mansion, Edwin took her to Mary’s room. There was a fountain pen and a pocket watch. It belonged to Edwin.
He made it clear that Mary liked him. So the only suspect left was Richard. Edwin warned her to be aware of her surroundings. He didn’t want anyone to die because of him.
The next day Kit wore the dress Lonnie gifted her. She went to meet Edwin.
Kit wore the dress that Lonnie gifted her.
Chapter: 16
When Richard saw Kit in that dress, he kept flattering her meticulously. Suddenly Edwin came and told Richard to mind his own business.
Edwin started thinking why he was not dying as the poison was supposed to hit then. After talking for a bit, he asked Kit to stay at his place the night to find out whether Richard was the suspect!
Suddenly Lonnie came in and was awestruck by seeing her. While checking out Edwin’s sample clothes, Kit got pricked by a pin. Edwin came forward to help her with the bleeding.
He asked her to tell him if she was sick as the pin could be poisonous. After a while, Kit became unconscious and fell to the ground.
Chapter: 17
Kit died. Edwin tried his best to punish Lonnie. His attempt was futile as the court did not find poison in her body. Edwin was shattered and helpless
When Lonnie was mourning, Edwin started blaming him. Lonnie said Kit died because of Edwin. If she had not drank the tea that day, she would have been alive.
Edwin realized how much he loved her. He understood her importance. He wanted to go back to the past and save her. He wanted to live a life together with Kit.
Chapter: 18
By the power of time traveling, Edwin went back to her birthday. When he found him, he hugged her tight. His happiness and emotions knew no bounds.
He told her that his tenth death was an assassination. He died after her. When Kit asked him why he came to the past as he wanted to die.
Edwin said he was clueless. He felt guilty as Kit died because of her. That was the first time he didn’t want to die.
Chapter: 19
Hence, Edwin regressed to the party. He told her about her death. Instantly, the needles of suspicion went to Lonnie. Ditching the party together, they sneaked into the library.
Solving the mysterious book of Edwin’s father, they both realized that Edwin could not regress anymore. They were shocked to their very core.
Chapter: 20
When Edwin was summoned to court, the evidence was tampered with. The judge favored a commoner despite having an eye witness.
They realized a mastermind controlled everything. A strong man was behind his death. Kit thought Richard was the culprit but Edwin persuaded her he was not as he had known him from childhood.
They were suspecting Lonnie. The ghost of Edwin’s father came and said something!
Chapter: 21
The ghost of Edwin’s father told him to go back to the Palace. Now he was suspecting his uncle, the King. He never wanted to doubt him as he always felt his uncle or stepfather cared for him more than his parents.
His next suspicion was the Grand Duke, Arwin Windsor. He was 3rd in the succession line and the most influential person after the king. To find out, Edwin had to return to the palace.
Kit was adamant to go with him. Edwin tried a lot to convince and warn her. She made him recall that they were in it together.
When Kit was bidding farewell to her home and streets, someone called her from the back.
Chapter: 22

As every affluent person in the state would be attending the banquet, Kit became nervous. Richard became very emotional when heard the news of them getting married.
When he left, Kit told Edwin that she found the king nice but she needed more time to understand everything. Edwin started annoying her by calling her “Kitty.”

Kit took a stand for herself. Rosaline threw wine at her face. Little did she know that Edwin would do the same to her.
They left the banquet and went under the stars. To Edwin, the inner appearance of a person was important.
Chapter: 32
Edwin wiped off her face. The ghost of his father came but said nothing. He was just staring at the palace; Edwin’s mother’s room.

Chapter: 38
In the bushes, they saw that a cat was brutally murdered and drenched in blood. Edwin decided to take them back to the palace.
The late king’s soul implied that the palace, that particular place, was neglected. He spread the rumor so that people gave their attention. Kit thought Arwin was behind this killing of cats around the palace.
Arwin wasn’t greedy for power in his childhood but Edwin’s uncle, the current king, was. He didn’t suspect the king because when he showed affection, Edwin used to forget everything.
He even tore up Edwin’s father’s portrait. But Edwin never told this to his father. He was feeling worthless.
They understood the conspiracy of the king. Time passed. The king told Edwin and Kit to perform in a play. Surprisingly the play was based on the same book, Sequence in the Loop, which was passed by Edwin’s father.
Chapter: 39
Both of them understand the gravity of the situation. Furthermore, the play was directed by Arwin. He was also the sponsor.
After going through all the sides, they decided to move forward with the play. They also changed the elements of the play to convey their message.
It included that the Prince didn’t have any hunger for power. He wanted to live in peace. The one who got agitated the most after watching the play was the main culprit.
Edwin wrote a line at the end of the script in a different language. It talked about living eternity with loved ones. When Kit asked what it meant, he became mad.
Kit went through a few books and understood. She was guilty of misunderstanding Edwin.
Chapter: 40
Kit saw Arwin and Lonnie together. She couldn’t wait to tell this to Edwin.
Later, she and Edwin were rehearsing for the play. Seeing the acting of Edwin, Richard cried. Their days were busy. All of them tried their best to depict every emotion in that play.
Chapter: 41
Grand Duke gave them the costumes. He kept praising Edwin’s looks. He requested them to give a great performance.
She told Edwin about the meeting of Duke and Lonnie. They thought the book had answers.
