“Do you like me as I am? Beaten and bruised?”... more>>

“You’re beautiful even when bruised. Call it a preference or a taste.”

Elysia was a lady of a noble family. Her future seemed bright, but when she married the handsome Dominic, her life turned upside down. Since then, she had lived a life of domestic abuse for the past eight years. And then she met Enoch. His way of speaking surprised her. Enoch grabbed her wrist before she could come to her senses. His low voice rang in her hears, her shoulders shrinking unconsciously, her breathing shaking and fuzzy.

“I don’t know what I’d do if I end up embracing you. Will you allow me to seduce you? It would very much please me.”

“I’d like to make a deal.”

“The trade is equivalent to an exchange.”

Killian tilted his head to the side. Soon, he let out a soft chuckle and sat on the sofa, saying softly, “Then take out what you have. I don’t know what it is, but is should be attractive enough. I don’t like cheap deals.”

Elysia raised her body, ignoring the pain. She took off her clothes that smelt like medicine. Standing before him with a limp, Killian raised his dark eyebrows. Muttering softly, she said, “I know I look like this now, but if you wait a little longer…”

“Do I look that frightening to you that I would not hold a battered woman? You're beautiful, you know. Cherish yourself more. It is what you deserve. It is what you are owed." <<less

I was just answering the phone when suddenly, an automated voice could be heard from the other side of the line:... more>>

Reset.

And game set.

After that, everything went dark, like something had turned off my life switch.

Seconds later, I opened my eyes to strange men wriggling in my bed.

“Why are you by my side?”

“It’s because I’m…… I’m Your Highness’s concubine.”

What the hell is this world?

In a strange and unfamiliar reverse world, my second life has begun. <<less

Eva Massies, once a daughter of a noble family, now lives in a house of acquaintances as a maid. She met him for the first time when her life was at rock bottom. Her handsome, strong, and dazzling former fiancée, Crown Prince Edward.... more>>

“Why are you crying, hm?”

Edward asked worriedly as he took her hurt foot.

“…It’s embarrassing. Hic–”

Perhaps it was because of how affectionate his voice was. A voice that had been suppressed all this time brazenly slipped out. To top it off, being soaked wet in water, wearing a pair of worn-out, patched socks, hitting rock bottom, all of these were shameful.

“Are you feeling ashamed because you’re hurt? Your foot is still beautiful even like this.”

He said those words like it wasn’t something to be concerned about.

“There’s no need to be ashamed. For whatever reason, you did nothing wrong, Eva.”

He soothed her fear by calling her name. Only when he’d left did she realize. That man who stayed only for a moment, that man who would be deeply engraved in her heart, was her first love.

* * *

Once again she met Edward after going through a rough time.

After defeating numerous nobles’ daughters and becoming a lady-in-waiting.

After her heart grew stronger.

After she no longer thought about him.

“It’s the lady of the bedchamber’s job to make sure that everything is sufficient and provide anything that Your Highness needs before sleep. That’s why, if you wish to hold hands, do as you wish.”

“Have I ever acted as I pleased in front of a lady even once?”

His voice was cold, drastically different from before. He held her, his glaring eyes felt very intimidating to her.

“If I knew you’d come to the imperial palace, I wouldn’t have let you go that day.”

Edward, who had his face close to her, warned in a low voice,

“So this time, I was thinking of doing anything however I wished.” <<less

[You are the new constellation of realm #381jh051.]
As if it wasn’t enough to have entered the world of a novel, I became a constellation.

To make matters worse, the guy who was stuck in the elevator with me was the problem.

This man is the enemy of mankind, someone who turned evil in the novel and destroyed the world.

‘Wasn’t one of the reasons why he turned evil was that he wasn’t chosen by the constellations?’

But now that this has happened, I have no choice but to sponsor Baek Tae-beom and get out of here!

[Skill: Activating Sponsor.]
[Skill: Sponsor has been canceled.]
[The sponsorship of 10,000 coins has been canceled.]
[Reason: Insufficient amount of coins]
[Possessed coins: 0]
Wait a minute.

I think I’m screwed.

[Line from the novel]
“Don’t disappear in front of me ever again, hyung.”

Baek Tae-beom smiled with brilliant golden eyes like a beast’s. I couldn’t help but stare at him as if possessed by his fatally beautiful appearance.

“Then I really don’t know what will happen to me.” <<less

"Do you want your passport back?"... more>>

He stared straight at her eyes that were clearly shining under her short bangs.

"…Give it back."

"Then you will have to work hard for it."

While she was chewing the meat in her mouth hard, the next piece of meat came into her mouth right after. Avoiding it was not as simple because she thought the fork would become a weapon in this man's hand.

The meat that she barely chewed and fell over her neck in chunks.

"What should I do to get it back?”

"While growing up, did no adults tell you this? You can't just say what you want, so don't say it like that."

A large chunk of meat could not fall over and felt stuck somewhere in her throat. Sarin clenched her fist and tapped her chest.

"Hmm…"

"Well, if you'd just spent that money on laundry, we wouldn't have had a chance to face each other like this. Don't you think so?"

It was a simple favour until the money was received, and then it was malice. Owen's interest borders on malice. His golden eyes glistened. It looked like a completely crazy look, it gave her goosebumps from the inside of her wrist.

"…My flight is just around the corner. I have to go back."

Not interested in feeding anymore, he laid down his fork carelessly. She could hear the sound of metal hitting the plate.

"That's your situation."

Word is that her situation is not over yet. <<less
