Love can be exhilarating, it can also be blissful.

Even if it’s ambiguous, it can still be mutually protected for life.

In this novel, there are many stories; some maybe vague, others perhaps clear. <<less

Born to a house where women were only seen as tools to birth children, I was already in my twenties. I was standing on the crossroads of life.... more>>

At my fingertips were close to fifty photos of different men. They were the marriage partner candidates my father had prepared.

Those who took the initiative and volunteered because they wanted his company, and those that were recommended to strengthen our ties with other companies. There were various reasons, but I was to marry one, and build up a child.

That was my reason for existence in this house.

I don’t think I can love another.

I wonder how everyone believes in something so shapeless as love. It was only a marvel to me.

That I couldn’t do something any standard person could must be because I was a person who was never properly loved.

I put a break on the countless unanswered questions I held since my birth, and stared down at the photos around me.

That I chose him was truly a coincidence. <<less

One day, Zenos was told by Party Leader, Aston.

Zenos is a favela-born healer and does not have an official license. Still, he was desperately honing his skills to get back for the party that had picked him up

In fact, if a friend was injured even slightly, he would be treated immediately. And he can also use protective magic, auto-recovery magic, and ability-strengthening magic that were hard to do, and Zenos' Party would be named as if they were invulnerable.

However, the party members misunderstood that those who weren’t hurt as they got stronger and started to think of Zenos as baggage.

“… Amazing.”

“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
