“Just dance, like a living doll.”... more>>

On the day she contemplated giving up ballet, a passion she had dedicated her entire life to, that man, the terrifyingly beautiful Enrico Michele, approached like a whispering devil, presenting a cunning proposal.

“Then I’ll tell you about your dead parents.”

A secret he hinted at along with an ambiguous sponsorship.

“Don’t you want to know the truth?”

Even knowing that becoming a puppet for him would lead her further into darkness, she was willing to do so to unravel the mystery of her parents’ death. <<less

Once Celebrated as a Genius Chancellor and Undefeated General, Yi Baek-ryeon, met a tragic end in her twilight years.... more>>

After dedicating her entire life to serving the emperor with unwavering loyalty, she was abandoned and forced to take her own life.

“I only wish to never again brush shoulders with Your Majesty,” she lamented with her last breath.

With that one ardent desire, she breathed her last.

“I must have committed some grave sin in a previous life.”

Opening her eyes, she found herself reincarnated as a three-year-old child.

Since she had already come this far, she decided to live a comfortable and leisurely life in her second life, far from the pursuit of heroism.

However…

“Very well. What is it you desire? Shall I have a lake dug and filled with peach juice, or shall I hang cookies from every tree for the birds to peck at?”

Why did she feel a familiar aura of the emperor emanating from this Grand Duke she had never met before?

This time, she was determined to live her own life, unburdened by the influence of others.

“Why? Are you trying to hang yourself again? You will not. You have always belonged to me, and what makes you think it will be any different in your second life?”

…But it seems that won’t be easy.

Your Majesty, may you live long and prosper. Please let me go. <<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

‘A cross-dressing duke in a BL novel who pretends to be an obsessive maniac.’... more>>

That was a perfect sentence to describe her.

* * *

Levin de Bervein was the lord of a prestigious duchy and a renowned swordmaster with outstanding looks. While seemingly perfect, he harbored a secret: he was actually a woman!

After falling into water unexpectedly, she met the eccentric princess.

“Sister, please become a fake obsessive maniac!”

Since they were inside this tragic BL novel, the princess wanted her to seduce the bottom male lead instead of the original story's obsessive maniac to prevent the world's destruction.

She followed the plan and seduced him, acting like an obsessive maniac.

However…

"Act like you love me. If you don't, I might just kill the person you love."

The bottom male lead, whom she manipulated and discarded, returned as the Emperor of a new empire.

"What do I need to do to have you? War? Massacre?"

The original 'Obsessive Maniac 1', the enemy empire's emperor, was truly insane.

"With just one kiss from you, I can dedicate everything I have. This heart, this empire."

The childhood friend whom she thought was innocent turned out to be the real 'Obsessive Maniac 2' from the original story.

For some reason, the obsessive maniacs from the story all come after her. <<less

On the condition that I give birth to an heir, I made a contract marriage with the Duke.... more>>

And I finally got pregnant. I thought I would be guaranteed a comfortable life now.

But I wasn’t.

“That woman must be killed when the baby is born.”

I faced the unbelievable truth.

The Duke only wanted an heir.

So, I ran away from the Duke’s mansion with the baby in my belly. <<less

I somehow managed to be reincarnated as a maid who monopolized the Emperor’s affection. In the end, she was killed by the Evil Empress through vicious means.... more>>

‘Fortunately, I’m only five years old.’

‘I still have a long way to go before the original work begins, so shouldn’t I just avoid the Emperor and Empress until then?’

I thought so, but…

“Lize, what did you say to the Emperor?”

“I said that I support you.”

The evil Empress who was supposed to kill me in the original story won’t leave me alone.

“Truthfully, you like me much more than the Emperor, don’t you? Am I right?”

Is the Empress trying to win me over? <<less

“You’re not going anywhere. I’ve decided I’m going to have you.” ... more>>

[///]

I’ve become an extra in the novel as the friend that triggered the line, ‘My friend’s dead!.”

I fled from the original plot and got a job at the castle where the castle lord’s a shut-in. Everyday was peaceful until I discovered the lord returning late one night covered with blood.

“Whoops, looks like I’ve been caught.”

Eek! I thought the job was an easy gig, but it turned out to be the lair of the villain who went batsh*t crazy for the female protagonist and caused a bloody massacre!

[///]

I tried to escape to survive, but failed. I’ve no choice but to care for him in hopes that he might become slightly less batsh*t crazy…

“I have a fiancé.”

“It’s fine. You won’t have one starting from tomorrow.”

“What? Why?”

“He’s going to die later.”

What the hell were you saying, you lunatic!

“For now, we’ll just hold hands and sleep.”

He roughly pulled off his cravat while saying the most unbelievable things.

“If you want, I’ll go slower.”

“I don’t want anything.”

“Well, we’ll see. I’ll tempt you, so hang in there.”

“I don–…!”

However, he deftly unbuttoned the rest of his shirt and his urgent breath that landed on my nape felt hot.

Why was this man behaving like this towards me instead of the heroine? Please save me. It seemed the villain had mistaken me for someone else! <<less

...They came to me. <<less
