Sirens: a name derived from an ancient creature, used to describe those who could charm, lure, control, and heal others by singing.... more>>

Subjected to live the life of a siren, Aria had experienced, seen, and heard many horrific things. Broken beyond repair, Aria resigned herself to death, when suddenly…

The Grand Duke, Lloyd Cardence Valentine, arrived and whispered, “Should I kill everyone here?”

“If you need me, just call me. Your song will always reach me, wherever you are.”

In the end, Aria called the devil, bringing death to all those present, along with herself.

“Let’s fall down to hell together.”

And with that, Aria breathed her last and died… only to return to her 10-year-old self.

Now that she had a second chance at her life, Aria was determined to change her fate, as well as the cruel fate of her saviour, Grand Duke Valentine.

And so… Aria proposed to him with a marriage contract.

She sold her soul to the devil and vowed to protect him.

[Marry me.] Aria extended her hand and gave him the contract. [Let’s get divorced in 10 years…]

The young duke took the contract from her hand.

“So, where should I stamp the seal?”

* * *

“You said you’d divorce me within 10 years.”

The grown-up villain leaned in, hovering his head before he kissed her tenderly over her crown.

“Now that we’re adults, we should sign another contract.” <<less

I fell into the ultimate noir* BL novel.... more>>

I was also the obsessive maniac and villainess who fell in love with the boss of The Hundred Thousand and brutally died during the main characters’ first meeting!

I thought I’d change the love between the two, which originally ended with the death of my bias due to schemes, into a happy ending,

“Join me. To hell.”

What? I’ve been kidnapped by my favorite character.

‘You’re my bias.’

‘But this is too much.’

To survive a life-turning event that is similar to the novel, I tried to seduce my bias a little. Just to the point where he would be sad to kill me.

“Why do you like me so much?”

Yet something wasn’t right.

“Try running away Princess, if you can.”

“I’m blind about you right now, and I’m going crazy.”

The male lead’s boyfriend began to cling to me.

“Please, Yeonbyeol…”

“Don’t leave me alone…”

Too dangerous and dizzying, there’s no way to escape.

*Noir is, according to Google, “A genre of crime film or fiction characterized by cynicism, fatalism, and moral ambiguity.” <<less

One sunny and beautiful day.... more>>

Nicole decided to end her husband’s life.

A husband who dragged and forced her to become his wife, and locked her up.

***

In her first life, he taught her hate.

In her second life, now she’s trying to save him.

So Nicole, when she returned in time,

decided to become the mistress of her ex-husband, Grand Duke Valentine.

To gain the power to protect themselves.

I reincarnated as the Grand Duke’s fake daughter.... more>>

“Live as though you’re a dead rat. If you dare tarnish the family name, I’ll tear you apart.”

In place of the real daughter, the fake that had been adopted turned out to be a troublemaker.
Though even if I use my own hands to ruin the family’s reputation, it was already a mess in the first place.

Let’s not worry about it. It’s a household that would fall to ruin in eight years anyway, so I plan to just save up a whole lot for my escape fund. But then…

“You’re the bad one, but why do I keep feeling like this?”
“Do not tarnish the family name, that’s what I said. But who told you to be so disgracefully hurt like this?”
“The owner of the name Ophelia—it’s you. Without a doubt.”

Why are you all doing this to me when it’s time for me to leave?
Besides that, wasn’t it with the real daughter that you all wanted to grow old with for like a hundred years?

‘Why… Is the luck that I have in my later years so terrible?’

* * *

“My eyes, they’re unpleasant. Because they’re black…”

With a blank expression, I looked down at the villainous mastermind, who was still young at this moment.

“Unpleasant?”

Those dark eyes, with a radiant brilliance,
Like a flowing river,
So far ahead and so invigorating that they could feed the entire nation.
No matter how ragged he looked and regardless of how much of a beggar he seemed, they could not be hidden.

‘The eyes of an emperor.’

And more than that… It's no joke how amazing his luck will be in his later years.
To the extent that I wouldn’t mind betting my entire life on him. <<less

I found myself reincarnated into a spin-off where my favorite character from the novel dies and her son becomes the male lead.... more>>

Of all things, I’ve possessed the villainess who dies a wicked death by execution, the fiancée of the male lead, Lyla Brilston! The only fortunate thing is that it’s still the male lead’s childhood.

“I refuse to die like this! First, I’ll crush my death flag and then try to save the life of my favorite character!”

By using information from the book, I managed to assist the Northern Alliance and befriended the male lead, who was as icy as a spear.

Unlike the original Lyla, I even gained special abilities and intended to peacefully indulge in fandom….. until suddenly, the male lead starts interfering with my fangirling?!

* * *

After the coming-of-age ceremony and meeting the female lead of the spin-off, it seems it’s my turn to step back, so I offered a divorce decree to Calix. His eyes grew cold at the sight of the divorce decree.

“Divorce? Who decided that?”

“We were engaged, remember?”

Calix ominously froze the divorce decree before burning it again. The divorce decree vanished like an illusion.

“So, you’re just going to leave me and go to someone else? You’d rather fawn over our mother? Go ahead. I have no intention of letting you go.”

The only thought that came to mind at the sight of Calix’s persistent gaze was one. It seemed that I had twisted the original story too much, causing the male lead to seem subtly insane. <<less

The chains that bound both arms tightly. During that time when a thirst and pain seemed to squeeze the heart. Gasping for breath in shallow breaths.... more>>

"It's like a living sacrifice,"

Her gaze met eyes resembling a brilliant dawn.

A man with a face and voice as if created by God approached and spoke.

"It's clearly a violation of imperial law."

The crimson moon eyes that seemed poised to devour her.

A distorted moonlight.

That gaze was etched like a scar into her. So much so, to an unforgettable degree.

However, ever since she met that man, someone keeps appearing in her dreams.

A strangely tender and longed-for figure.

* * *

A single blue butterfly, scattering light like a fantasy, whispered a tale from the distant memories.

‘Do you know, Ren? They say a person who sacrifices themselves for the world is called a hero.’

A voice as familiar as it was strange, resembling the depths of the night sea.

‘But wouldn't it be better to sacrifice the world itself, than sacrifice yourself for the sake of this insignificant world?’

The person who kissed her gently and cautiously with eyes full of sorrow, Radiating like the sun, the one who made her give her all.

As ephemeral and beautiful as a midsummer night's dream...

The intense, passionate, and sparkling moment vividly came to mind. <<less

I found myself transmigrated into an explicit 19+ novel.... more>>

“If Chloe gets pregnant now, it’ll be troublesome.”

“…She might be pregnant though.”

“But didn’t the examination results say otherwise?”

“We can’t always exclude the possibility of ‘what if,’ can we?”

Throughout the overheard conversation, my heart felt like it would burst from my chest. I had a gut feeling.

Dante’s next response would tear me to shreds.

“…We have to kill her.”

That man is the secondary male lead of this novel and my husband.

I decided to leave for my own sake. <<less
