It was a treacherous story of betrayal.... more>>

At the moment Laurentia was forced to turn her back on her pain and remorse, she had gone back eleven years before her engagement. Her faith in Erusia, her affection for her fiancé; all of it could go to hell. Listen carefully, Sister, there is no good sister now. I pledge to redesign my life.

Duke Adler, who is called the best man in the Asgard Empire, is as handsome as a statue… no– is a serial killer and hidden villain in this novel. And Princess Charlotte, whom he married out of convenience, is mu*dered on the first night of the wedding.... more>>

…the thing is, I am the princess who was fated to be killed by the hidden villain on the first night.

“It’s an arranged marriage anyway, and we don’t even want to see each other’s faces, so we’ll only meet on the day of the wedding.”

It is clear that the hidden villain is reluctant to marry me. So my choice is…

“I fell in love at first sight. So go out with me!”

Only six months left until the wedding. I decided to do an undercover investigation under the pretext of dating. People don’t believe me, so I’ll have to find the evidence myself.

While I was by his side trying to lay bare the fact that he is a serial killer…

***

“You said you fell in love with me at first sight, what were you doing with another man?” a cold voice flowed into my ears.

“What, what do you mean? It was just a dance to get the banquet going…”

The nape of my neck heated up from his hot breath that touched my earlobes. The cold voice and the contrasting sensation made me even dizzier.

“In his arms, you affectionately called him by his first name.”

“Eub.”

I held my breath because I couldn’t keep my mind from the intense musk scent that wrapped around my body. My whole body was tingling from the strange sensation that ran along the back of my neck.

He tilted his head and said, “If there is another bastard’s scent on your body… I will kill him.” <<less

“…Some crazy bas**** is standing in front of my house again.”... more>>

My house is a jewel shop, but someone keeps bringing injured people to my front door. They were so meddlesome that I treated them while swearing at them. Others wished that I would get along well with them.

“Didn’t you save the head of an assassination guild last time?”

“She’s a woman.”

“Oh, what about the vicious loan shark who owns that place worth a billion marks on Second Avenue?”

“She’s a woman too.”

“What about the person who dropped you off in front of your house and left in a noble’s carriage?”

“She’s a young lady as well.”

And then the sixth person came. This was the first time a man came, and a handsome one at that.

“Take it off.”

“What? What? WHAT? Oh … oh, you meant my glasses.”

This man was the final villain of the novel, who had a completely different personality during the day and the night.

During the day, he was simply an innocent and naïve young man.

But at night…

“Why? You asked me to take it off. What should I take off this time?” <<less

Ethel, possessed into her favorite novel, has married the female lead’s brother Liena.... more>>

She thought they would be a natural family, but she was mistaken.

Tired of a husband who cared only for his sister, who was cold to her, and whose attention was always centered on Liena, she filed for divorce.

“Divorce? No way. Things were good when we were together.”

“Sister-in-law, think again!”

Unlike in the past, I am determined now. There’s no need to reconsider.

“Then, can I get back the mine that is my dowry?”

“Wait a minute, sister-in-law.”

I needed an assistant, so I turned to the villain of the original story.

“Who on earth dared to give you a hard time?”

Isn’t this man too precious to be hurt by Liena……?

“The only person I want to keep by my side is you, Ethel.”

……By your side? <<less

She enticed the successor to the Duke of Lisianthus.... more>>

He sneakily grabbed my hand.

I sighed and twisted my hand out of his grip. “We can’t do this as friends.”

“Are you ashamed of holding my hand even once, Leen?”

No matter how much I think about what Carsion said, with his face showing ‘I barely held one hand’, it doesn’t seem that way.

“I can do more with you, Leen.”

Those words seemed to ring in my head, but the blue pupils were headed in a different direction – you can’t even look me in the eye. I mean, it’s not convincing to say those kind of words with such a shy face, you punk.

* * * * *

The Duchess took something out from the purse in her arms.

“Do you need money? Then take this money and break up with Carsion; take it without hard feelings.”

I stared silently into the thick pockets that the Duchess gave. Then I tapped my chin and gave her a serious look. “We’re not dating, we’re friends. Do you want me to cut off my friendship with Carsion from today?”

Will the Duchess get up from her seat, trembling and slap my face? Or are you going to spray water on me?

“Pass!”

“Ye-yes?” My face slowly blushed with embarrassment.

What’s with her unexpected reaction?! <<less

My husband entered an arranged marriage with me against his will. And he hates me.... more>>

I just lived every single day as though I was dead, waiting for the day that we’d get divorced…

“The Duke… seems to have lost his memory.”

“What…?”

Then, one day, he suddenly lost his memories. To be more exact, only memories of me had been wiped clean from his mind.

And it seems like this amnesiac husband of mine somehow fell in love with me…

“My dear… I’m really, really happy that you’re my wife.”

Who is this… this puppy-like man…?

Isn’t he the same man who bares his teeth at me every time he sees me?

“Once you remember everything, you’re going to regret it all. You’re being so nice to me like this…”

“No, I won’t. Not even a little bit.”

Haa. Seriously… He talks to me so sweetly now, but this will definitely turn into a shameful past that he’d come to regret later on.

After he recovers his memories, I know for sure that my husband will finally push ahead with the divorce.

I should prepare for it in advance. <<less

During the springtime of the year I turned nine years old, a father I didn’t even know existed suddenly showed up.... more>>

“Why are you here, Duke? It was comfortable when we didn’t see each other.”
“You’ve been comfortable all this time, so isn’t it time for you to be uncomfortable, Your Highness?”

Turns out, my mother was actually the daughter of a tyrant. And my father was the Duke who overthrew that tyrant.

“O, great and busy Duke of Chelsiers. Did you look for me just to make me feel uncomfortable?”
“Is it so strange for a husband to look for his wife?”
“Do we still have that relationship? Ah, I forgot. Well then, let’s get divorced.”

…Can anyone tell me what’s going on with these two??

***

“I wish I was there to hug you when you were younger.”

It was a low whisper filled with a mixture of soft, warm and sad feelings.
I hesitated a little before I confessed.

“I often made Mom upset before. If I met you earlier, you might’ve hated me.”

Dad burst into laughter at my words. Even though… I meant what I said.
After a long laugh, he looked at me with a hint of a sorrowful smile on his lips.

“If we had met earlier, you would’ve called me Dad more. That’s enough for me.” <<less

“It’s fortunate it’s just unrequited love, isn’t it?”

“…What?”

“It makes emotions easier to sort out.”

Woo Yeonjae coldly dismissed the lie. Until now, he had been enduring well, Not wanting his flaws to be exposed so easily. Especially not to Moon Seoyoon.

I’m just like everyone else, so don’t think oddly of me.

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.”

But in this life everything is different.

Originally, I was a possessed young woman who got in the way of the protagonist’s love story and ultimately wanted power.

If I want to avoid the bad ending, I must show the biggest lack of interest in power. Then, I will be able to bake the sweets that I have always wanted so much.

But with the emperor, not everything is so simple …

“How long will you avoid me for?”

The crown prince, the male lead, will drive me to ruin …

“Yesterday, I heard something quite unusual.”

Jeong Ijun, the second grandson of Chairman Jeong of Baekya Food, the 16th-generation descendant of the Seorae family.

And Kim Siyeon, who had spent 25 years as the fiancée of Jeong Gwi-hyeon, Chairman Jeong’s eldest grandson.

“Although I occasionally inherited useful things like clothes or items my brother used when I was young, inheriting the woman my brother had been with all along is just too much.”

He knew exactly where to prod to make Siyeon feel uncomfortable, and he was making full use of that knowledge.

“So, you just need to come to terms with the fact that you can’t marry the man you’ve always thought of as a younger brother, and take him as your husband for a lifetime.”

He picked up his coffee cup with a relaxed demeanor.

“…I understand what you mean.”

“I’m glad you understand.”

“You’re basically telling me how could a woman who had always been with the older brother end up marrying the younger brother instead.”

His gaze, which had been fixed on the coffee cup, slowly lifted.

“Exactly.”

It was a neatly delivered response. <<less

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

“My Euseniel.”... more>>

Tess, who became an adult, called my name in a soft tone. He smiled, narrowing his eyes, and covered my cheeks with his large hands.

There were many things I wanted to say when I met my childhood friend, but in the end it was a s*upid question.

***

The Crown Prince’s only friend, me, Euseniel Hardland.

One day, our family is expelled from the capital for having had a bad influence on the Crown Prince.

Reunited after 14 years, he was very different.

***

“Why… Why did you change so much?”

Tess tilted his head, and his black hair, which was previously blonde, flew down.

“It’s your taste.”

Red lips drew arcs as if seducing me, and the dark blue eyes slowly loosened.

“Because I like you, my Euseniel.” <<less

When I first came into the book, my goal was just to survive.... more>>

‘I have to live longer! And be happy!’ So I did my best.

I am going to walk on my own flower path.

“Wherever I go, the seat next to you is mine. You promised to pat my head for the rest of your life, isn’t that right?” The strongest male character, who was stabbed to death in the original novel, stared at me with obsessive eyes.

If I say no, he will destroy the world.

“Yes, I’ll kill him. Then you’ll be happy, too, right?” The fifth brother looked a bit crazy.

“This is my land from here to here. And yours, too. I’m glad to be able to breathe with your grandest dreams.” The fourth oldest sister, who became the richest woman on the continent, opened the map and said that.

If I say I don’t have such a grand dream like her, I think a catastrophe will happen.

“I’m looking forward to the Winter Solstice that you’ll rule completely.” Laughter rose on the face of the butler who served me.

“If you don’t connect to Verratoux, my heart will stop tomorrow morning. Are you sure you’re okay with that?” My first sister, who was supposed to be the original successor, threatened me with her life.

And this is the biggest problem. Somehow, a faint smile raised my father’s mouth, which became stronger than the original father he was. “Independence? Try it then. I won’t even let a single ant live on this land."

“Did you think you could leave my arms and stand on your own…” He then stared at me obsessively.

They are all acting weird.

Everything went wrong.

I only did my very best. <<less
