I've transmigrated into my favorite romance novel, which I've read hundreds of times while waiting for its completion.... more>>

Wouldn't it be wonderful if I transmigrated as a noble lady living a comfortable life? Unfortunately, I've transmigrated as the villainess who tormented the heroine mercilessly, ending up dying a horrible death as a fake saint candidate.

So, unlike the original story, I quickly resign as the saint candidate and leave the temple. I then set up a home for a fortune-teller who can predict fate accurately, thanks to my memory of the author's typos. My reputation soars as I impressively predict the future, which was initially just a means to survive.

As a result, the temple that once ignored me, the first prince embroiled in the Throne of Blood War, and the next Ma-topju (the highest-ranking official) consumed by unprecedented narcissism all begin to obsess over me.

To escape the most dangerous part where I'm killed off in the original work, the temple, I must enter into a contract marriage. But who should I marry to make it work?

After much deliberation, embarking on a contract marriage proves to be anything but easy.

How does one navigate a wise married life? <<less

One day, I suddenly became the youngest son-in-law of a chaebol family.

The kingdom boasted a hero and formidable leader of the demon extermination force, Valen Rudwick. Amidst the chaos of battle, he tried to rescue a woman from a demon attack, only to be struck on the back of his head…... more>>

Unbeknownst to him, the woman he saved was not just any civilian but a succubus.

When Valen regained consciousness, he found himself not on the bloody battlefield but in a wedding hall within the demon realm.

“I am Argentine. And you are?”

“Do you think I’ll tell my name to a filthy demon like you?”

Weary from the prolonged wars, the demons proposed a political marriage to him. The absurd condition? It would last until Argentine, whom Valen saved, became pregnant with his child.

The idea of a child with demon blood repulsed him to the core. But pushed to his limits, Valen reluctantly agreed to their proposal.

“Let’s cease these charades and focus on what needs to be done. It’ll be better for both of us,” he growled.

“I want to give you time to accept…”

“Should I give not only my body but also my mind? Will that strengthen my ‘essence’?”

Valen was disgusted by the demons’ hypocrisy. He had intended to leave the demon realm as soon as the succubus bore a child.

“Whether you call for me or come to me, it’s up to you,” he said.

“…”

“I’ll do my da!mned best to give you my seed.”

Valen, the human warrior who despises demons, and Argentine, the demon king who sought peace through a child.

Can the demon realm truly find peace? <<less

"Elaina, Archduke Grant is coming to visit tomorrow....... Someone you like."... more>>

Diane's sobs reminded Elaina of a book. Every night, she read the same book over and over again in her dreams. In the book, “Moon Shadow,” Diane is sold off to become the wife of Archduke Grant due to family circumstances, preventing her from marrying the man she loves. The book ends with Diane, tired of her loveless marriage, taking her own life.

'This can't be happening!'

She had done so much to prevent Diane's misery. Now she can't stand by and watch her fall into the devil's maw.

"Don't worry, Diane."

Elaina took Diane's hand and reassured her.

"I'll take care of everything."

She will. Even if it means she herself marries him instead.

***

“You've interfered with every approach I've made to Diane Redwood, and now you're asking me to marry you?”

“Think of it more like a one-year contract than a marriage. We can give and take what we want from each other.”

Lyle Grant looked at Elaina with confusion.

“What on earth would you do that for?”

“I have a heart that won't let me turn away from a poor person.”

It wasn't just for Diane. Diane, the protagonist, Nathan, the love of her life, and Lyle and his younger brother. Everyone in "Moon Shadow" was unhappy, each for their own reasons.

“I promise, I'll be your wife for a year, but I'll do my best while I'm at it.”

Elaina smiled up at Lyle, her face full of confidence. She had a plan to make all the characters in the damn "Moon Shadow" happy. <<less

Ravidon, the capital of Lytham, where it is impossible for a woman of a certain age not to get married. Ray Alexis Leanello, the docile eldest daughter of a wealthy family is not married. After suffering some sort of accident, she dumps her fiancé as soon as she wakes up from her hospital bed.... more>>

“…Are you saying you went crazy after living and dying, Alex?”

“If you feel uncomfortable because I dumped you, tell them you broke off the engagement because you thought I was crazy.”

While she was lying in her hospital bed, she tasted ‘this world’ and woke up dreaming of being ‘single’. She decided to become ‘the woman no one wants to marry’!

***

“Oh my God, such vulgar language! I guess this is why being a poor person can’t be helped.”

“Uh? But is there anyone among these people who is truly noble? You don’t give titles to women.”

It was a grand banquet held once a year, when Ray was playing the role of the ‘Witch of Ravidon’.

“Ramiel Ruivan has arrived!”

A handsome man with silver hair and golden eyes, a powerful man scheduled to inherit the title at the age of 22. When the man, known as a social angel, appeared, the commotion caused by the witch subsided.

“Good job. Alexis, you were very unlucky today. Now not even the dog will want to take you!”

Ray took advantage of the opportunity to escape to the terrace and eat alone, praising herself excitedly.

“Phew.”

The person behind the laughter that should never be heard right now is… It was Ramiel Ruivan, the ‘Angel of Ravidon’ who should have been at the center of the banquet!

***

A few days after running away from the banquet hall, Ray greets her bewildering guest.

“I wish to marry the young lady.”

“…I beg your pardon?”

Ramiel follows her to her house and proposes a contract marriage! Will Ray Alexis be able to achieve her dream of being peacefully single? <<less

After a red meteor slashed through the heavens, human progress ground to a halt. ... more>>

Since that momentous day, humanity lost its ability to create rockets, nuclear weapons, airplanes, cars...

The towering pyramid of civilization, meticulously built from the achievements of modern science, crumbled into dust.

Yet, the catastrophe didn't stop there. The grey realm, following the arrival of the red meteor, like a ghostly reflection behind a mirror, dragged the civilized world bit by bit into the abyss of disorder.

In this new age, a human life was no more significant than a speck of dust, yet amidst the ruins, humanity's spirit shone as brightly as the stars.

Amid the crumbling edifice, observers could see a figure—an actor—defiantly standing on the wreckage of civilization, his red cloak as vivid as blood, his expressions flickering between laughter and tears. Behind him, the curtain of the era gently parted. With arms wide open, he whispered to all who would listen— "Let the show begin." <<less

Erdene, the heir to the belligerent Hirshstein Empire, the next owner of the throne, the iron-blooded princess. What awaited her, who had returned victorious from a long war, was the position of queen of the Kingdom of Vetor, a kingdom she had never held a grudge against.... more>>

"This cannot be! How can Your Majesty do this to Her Highness the Princess!"

Erdene, who had to accept everything that was changing without her being able to do anything about it, and a life that she had never thought would be her future.

And the king who came to meet her, Arkan, a king who hated 'violence' and loved peace and reading.

The moment Erdene met him, she thought.

'This man is not right for me.'

* * *

"All I had to do was say 'I'm sorry', but you're making it sound like a serious confession, that's why."

"This is ridiculous. So in the Empire, do you just hit someone and say 'Oops, sorry?' and move on?"

"It's the other way around. Do you think our people are some kind of back-alley thugs?"

"Who said that?"

The woman with jet-black hair pulled back roughly frowned her white and fair face and said.

"If you hit us once, we'll hit you back twice. That's how we apologize, Your Majesty."

Then, a man who looked as gentle as a large dog glared and slammed his fist on the table.

"What kind of apology is that! What country calls that an apology?"

"Our country."

The woman sneered.

The man, who had been looking at her with an expression of disbelief, also burst out laughing and turned his head away.

Turning their backs on each other like sulky children, the two people, ironically, were thinking the same thing.

'What the hell is this!' <<less

Jin Yura, once just a friend’s younger sister, seemed like a perfectly suitable marriage partner, unnecessary of the bothersome affairs of romance.... more>>

“What should I call you now? ‘Honey’ perhaps?”

An unexpected minor commotion led to a contractual marriage between Baek I-hyun and Jin Yura.

“I guess ‘Honey’ it is.”

“Call me by my name, like you used to. Please.”

“Yura.”

Yura couldn’t help but hold her breath, wondering if her name had always sounded so sweet.

Was it I-hyun’s voice or her own ears that were the problem?

“Like this?” Yura struggled to look at I-hyun’s smiling eyes.

“Y-Yes.”

She turned her head away, biting her lip, as a deep shadow loomed over her face.

I-hyun had closed the distance in a flash, his head tilted slightly to match her gaze.

“Why, why are you doing this?”

Retreating step by step, Yura found herself blocked by the bookshelf, unable to move further.

I-hyun whispered closely in front of Yura, “I like ‘Honey’ better.”

With a soft, sultry sound, Yura’s voice broke.

She had never imagined that she would be kissing I-hyun.

His skillful lead and the hand wrapped around her waist felt so natural.

Yura’s head spun with I-hyun’s deep breaths enveloping her.

A two-year contract marriage, supposedly the ideal time for growing apart, began rather abruptly.

Could they really reach the final station of divorce unscathed? <<less

Be my girlfriend, just for today.... more>>

Top actor Tae Seo-joon approached an unknown woman with this insane proposition.

“Okay. I’ll help you!”

Aspiring actress Eom So-yeon, with nothing but her steadfast determination, accepted the role of a stand-in girlfriend, closing and then opening her large, revealing eyes.

It was a mad act, a whimsical twist of fate, or perhaps a divine error.

On a day when his perfect life, blessed from birth, felt unbearably mundane and disappointing, Seo-joon encountered the dazzling Eom So-yeon.

But she, who shook his entire sturdy life in an instant, vanished just as quickly.

And after more than three years, Tae Seo-joon, who left Korea without knowing the trials he had put her through, returned.

“Eom… So-yeon?”

He called her name.

So-yeon couldn’t tell him that their brief night resulted in ‘a beautiful child between us.

Although their encounter was short, Seo-joon never considered it a breakup and kept her in his heart.

Now, as they faced each other, two once-dead hearts began to race wildly.

It was a terrible thrill. <<less

One night, Oscar picked up the key to a safe he had once desperately searched for. The person who came with it became a living key was a woman, extraordinary in every aspect. Her tearful eyes, naive actions, even her name and appearance. The woman was oddly irritating. He was even displeased at having to ponder how to describe that irritation. So, he wanted to temporarily put it out of sight, in a place where it couldn't be seen.... more>>

“I... want to be by your side.”

It was too ridiculous to be sincere, and far too pathetic to be temptation.

Therefore, the one who was ensnared was undoubtedly an idiot.

Even when subjected to all kinds of insults, the woman approached until the end. On those small, soft palms, which knew no calluses, Oscar von Reinhardt was played with.

So, I must hold you accountable.

To you, who never had sincerity, not even for a single moment.

Until the very end...

To you, who even hid your name from me,

I will hold you accountable, very cruelly.
