I transmigrated into a novel where the emperor's second male lead, who lost the female lead, goes crazy with war. And I'm swept into it as an extra princess of a doomed country!... more>>

To survive, I need to flee to another country as soon as possible. But before that, I only wanted one successor for the future...

The man I needed just for one night turned out to be that insane emperor?

* * *

"Did you try to steal my seed to make it the successor of some petty country?"
"N-no, that's not it..."
"I can't stand seeing you in such a state."

The emperor blocked her way as she tried to escape.

"Neither the princess nor the child can leave me."

Verona was bewildered by the emperor's erratic behavior.
It was just ten days ago that they spent the night together.
Only God knows if she's pregnant, but he's already talking about the child.

'It seems like this man didn't even receive proper education while chasing after the female lead.'

Verona looked up at the emperor with a serious expression, pondering.

'How can I possibly tell him that the chances of getting pregnant from just one night are not high?'

But if she did and he went even crazier, what would happen then?
Verona decided to stay quiet for now. <<less

I transmigrated into the body of the foster daughter who would die instead of the female protagonist; at that, she would die miserably after being wrongfully accused as a gumiho.... more>>

In order to escape the game, she decided to die as quickly and painlessly as possible. So she lived quietly...

"Do you think you'd be able to find a house to marry as a war orphan? No one would want to marry someone as lowly as you."

The young master of the Prime Minister's Household who looked at me like a bug just to save his younger sibling.

"You appear to be the youngest daughter of his Excellency. I will take responsibility for you."

The prince who should be marrying the real young lady of the house.

"Is it true that you ate the liver of a cow? That's not something a person like you should be eating! Please promise me that you would not do something like that ever again."

Even the neighboring country's aristocrat started to follow me about.

She was living as silently as a mouse, who's dead as a doornail, so she could see the ending, but everything keeps getting twisted.
Even the Prime Minister's real young lady has started to act weirdly...

"Yeonhee, I like you so much. Because I don't think you'll ever betray me."

No, I tell you, I just want to live quietly and die?! <<less

I married him because of a one-night mistake.... more>>

"I'll give you the position of Duchess. But nothing more."

At first, I was relieved by the cold eyes, but as time passed, my expectations grew.

Thinking about it now, it was a vain hope that one day he will look back at me.

-

“Are you coming back today?”
“Why are you curious about that?”

Duke Walten looked at Kathleen with expressionless eyes.

“Do you want me to come back and be by your side?”
“… Yes, I wish you would.”

At her brave words, he laughed out loud. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer and whispered.

“Then, like a contract marriage, give birth to an heir first.”

Knowing that she couldn't...
Kathleen couldn't contain her tears and pushed him away.
He turned around expressionlessly, even as he saw her tear-soaked face. She looked at her husband and thought.

'If I can't really be your wife,
Then I really have to leave now.' <<less
