"That s*ave over there. Can you give him to me?"... more>>

Because that s*ave is actually the male lead of this novel and the long lost son of a duke.
So, if you don't want to be executed for abusing the male lead, just hand him over to me quietly.

To prevent a massacre ending and to collect the reward offered for the male lead, I risked my life to protect him.
I used him to escape from this miserable household and to fulfill the dreams I couldn't achieve in my previous life.

"Thank you, Duke."

When I exchanged the male lead for the reward, his face seemed stained with betrayal, but...
It doesn't matter.
I made sure to keep a strict line between us so that the male lead wouldn’t catch the rampant male lead affliction: obsession.
So now I plan to run away from him!

Five years later.
I finally managed to open a 'convenience store' in this romance fantasy world, and it’s a huge success!

One day, a suspicious customer visited me.

"Welcome!"

Even I, who had the knight commander, the mercenary king, and a priest—who were all famous in the whole empire by the way—as regular customers in the capital, had to catch my breath at the beauty of this customer.

"Are you looking for something?"
"Right here."
"Pardon?"
"She’s right in front of me."

His gaze was fixed directly on me.

"I’m sorry, dear customer, but I’m not for sale...."
"Master."

As I hurriedly bowed my head, I was startled by the familiar yet unfamiliar address from the guest’s mouth.

"You bought me, didn’t you? You must take responsibility to the very end. Like that time, when we shared a single blanket... and spent many nights together. Remember?"

...Wasn’t I supposed to be safe from the male lead’s obsession?

“My ideal type? A quiet man who cooks well.”... more>>

It’s unfair enough that I’ve been reincarnated as the villainess in a serialized novel but now my husband and his sister-in-law are having an affair too. Huh, but to be sentenced to death for killing the adulterous couple? This is my third life, and this time, I’m going to get a happy ending!

“…It tastes like my unforgettable first love who discarded me.”

Excuse me, but you’re not my first love who discarded me. If it were someone else, I would have surely kicked them out, but the more I see him, the more familiar he feels, and my gaze unconsciously drifts towards him.

Moreover, he seems to have a clear understanding of my ideal type, right?

“Since I didn’t know what Lynet likes, I tried making various things.”

Ah, what am I supposed to do when the sight of a quiet man cooking looks sexy from behind! <<less

That summer afternoon, spent beside the being who had become the heaviest in my world, with the verdure of the season deepening within the confines of my lone space, self-isolated from others. Solitude was no longer an option for me. A life without Woonu only promised loneliness.... more>>

I lost my family and experienced the loneliness that lingered in their absence, living a lonesome life without holding anyone close to my heart, stewing in my solitude. Loneliness and solitude cannot coexist. Only those who have chosen solitude know of this truth.

Solitude is a blank, and loneliness is a dearth that seeks to be filled. Because solitude is closer to nonpossession than it is to resignation, while loneliness is like a jar with a leaky bottom. That imperfectly solid blank of mine, built from my fleeing of loneliness, became desperate to contain a whole being.

Woonu, having felt the rain at the tip of his fingers, arm stretched beyond the eaves, suddenly straightened his legs and leaned his upper body forward.

“Huh? A green frog!”

“Where? Are you sure you didn’t see wrong?”

“There, over there! Oh, oh, it’s jumping!”

“Oh, there really is one.”

“Where did it come from? Has it always lived here?”

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
