“Everything’s organized, and you’ve been doing the right thing. Well then… I guess it’s time to do something bad.”

Hwang Do-jun, representative of Hanseong Hotel.

Yoon Seo-yeon was appointed by Hwang Do-jun to be his personal shopper.

The job duration is only for three months until Do-jun moves to Hanseong Department Store.

It was an unwelcome proposal for Seo-yeon, who Do-jun caught and witnessed the scene where her fiancée demanded a breakup.

But it was something unavoidable.

Well, when you think about it, it’s just three months.

“Let’s just sleep. Together.”

Nothing else.

Just bodies intertwining.

Seo-yeon requested it, and Do-jun willingly accepted. <<less

In the year I turned 13, my adoptive father brought home the most beautiful and unfortunate monster in the world.

***

‘No, Billie. I don’t know how to live without you.’

An ecstatically soft voice pierced my ears.

Despite the gentle tone, my legs couldn't move as if I was caught in a trap, so I couldn't run away any further.

‘You promised that you would love me even if I break down. You said it's okay even if I become a mess.’

The man who had gone completely crazy hugged my waist affectionately.

“Even if I have to start over from scratch, everything is fine as long as I have you, Billy.”

Helios smoothly lifted my chin and whispered.

'So if you leave me, I'll start everything from the beginning. How about that? The choice is yours.'

What kind of choice is that?

… Those words did not come out until the end.

The beautifully crazy guy's eyes were sparkling in an unusual way. <<less

"Yes, thank you!"

Averill, a girl who was called a genius in her childhood but was now mistreated as "incompetent", got married off as a "substitute" in place of her step-sister to an "old, lustful duke".

What awaited her at her destination was a handsome young man who was the complete opposite of what she had heard.

But of course, the people around her who believed Averill to be a villainess treated her badly. However, Averill, who was accustomed to being oppressed and easygoing, was not discouraged at all.

She obediently demonstrated her inherent insensitivity and ability as a "villainess (*compared to herself)", and turned them around into her allies.

On the other hand, the Duke quickly saw through that Avril was neither incompetent nor a villainess.

He asked, "Averill, who called you an incompetent woman? I won't forgive them."

"...Uh, that...?"

This is a story about a heroine who lived a strong life at her own pace even though her family didn't love her, but in a new place, she was cherished and lived a happy life. <<less

I'm the one who's been possessed by this novel.... more>>

'I need an utterly shameless fiancée.'

As cliché as it gets, I became the Duke's fiancée... No, I interviewed to become one.
Am I out of my mind? Who interviews to become a fiancée?

* * *

The best output that the Baron family can produce.
I became the contracted fiancée of the Duke Etica, who holds the empire's strongest power and wealth.

If I endure by the side of a man nicknamed the tr*sh Duke for just two years, I'll receive a fortune that is more than enough, even if written across several generations.

"Don't forget. The moment the Duke likes me, you will become my dog."
"You, of all people, should not forget. The moment you show any hostility towards me, even a little, the promised property documents will turn into scraps."

...Thanks to this jerk, it's not easy.

***

Jeffrey Etica was convinced.
This life is entirely his own, and no one else can interfere.
He believed that he wouldn't even let anyone grab the hem of his clothes, let alone a leash.
But why do all decisions keep wavering, and why does he feel this way?

"You won, my Aurora."
"..."
"Now I'm a dog on a leash, forced to lick your feet, my dear."

But does everyone know that? How one of their kind deals with another.
To deal with the tr*sh Duke, the fiancée also needs to be formidable.

"Really? Then bark. Like a dog." <<less

My fourth regression.... more>>

To survive, I had to become independent.

For my goal, I picked up a man who was woefully annihilated and about to die.

I wanted to become an "extraterritorial territory" in a world full of villains.

I wanted extraterritoriality rights so power, money, honor, and even the law couldn't reach me.

That's where I wanted to stand.

"What exactly are you?"

"I don't know—your fate, maybe?"

"What?"

"Miraculously appearing and saving you just before death, isn't that fate?"

Ahaak Osvold, the tyrant who would rule with cruelty, proposed an unexpected contract.

"I want to make a friendship contract with you."

'Why would you want to be friends with me?' …It's what I thought, but in all honesty, I needed him to gain my "autonomous region."

"Don't regret it later."

Then, I'll raise you as an emperor.

 

━━━━ ∙ʚ(✧)ɞ∙ ━━━━

 

But it seems I raised him too well?

Amid the imperial succession competition, Ahaak kissed my hair and said,

"Tia, what are you looking at?"

"I mean, tonight… I'll be waiting for you in my chambers, Tia."

"Since I'm the only friend in your life, it's enough."

…Wait.

It didn't say anywhere that the friends contract with the tyrant would be exclusive, right? <<less

Evelyn Revelbrit is the last descendant of the evil family that brought the Empire to the brink of destruction. A pariah to the people and the number one person on the annual list of those who need to be wiped from the face of the earth, her life is tortured and miserable. But now she has a golden opportunity to change her life.... more>>

"What? The Erelheim estate with the title of Grand Count is up for bid?!"

Evelyn is determined, 'I will take it. I'll take it... even if it kills me!'

But there are certain qualifications for bidding. First, you must come from a family with a title of marquis or higher, or second, you must have been granted judicial power by the Holy See, or third, you must have been honored by the Imperial Family. It's including your family and spouse.

"Then the solution is simple. I will hire a physically fit, unmarried man who meets the above conditions to be my contract husband!"

Could the most despised person in the Empire be able to hire such a husband? Of course not. So I'm offering you the highest salary in the industry, and I'll give you the most generous benefits ever. Once I win the bid, I will grant you a clean divorce and make sure you get your alimony!

At this rate, one or two talented people will apply, right? Our company welcomes talented people with open arms!

But Evelyn was mistaken.
...there are too many applicants. <<less

“I didn’t cheat on you with your fiancé; it was fate, do you understand?”... more>>

The heroine eloped with my fiancé.

On the day of our engagement.

After a moment of disbelief, the male lead came to me.

“The lady I picked out for the contract marriage ran off with her friend’s fiancé.”

“Goodness, there’s a lady just like me.”

“So I’m thinking of proposing a contract marriage to that friend.”

The eyes beneath the bushy eyebrows gleamed sharply.

“Will you marry me, milady?”

… It seems to be me.

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

Since my fiancé ran away anyway, there wasn’t much choice; I entered the wedding hall with the male lead.

I agreed to the contract with the intention of running away if necessary.

“I’ll try to make you a precious person to everyone.”

His fingertips, which descended to my earlobe, lightly brushed my tiny earring.

Shivers ran down my spine.

“The earring suits you very well.”

The earring had a purple gem that matched his eye color.

Something seems wrong with this contract marriage after all. <<less

“You have to pay the price of raising you. Do you really want to see your mother living in such poverty?”... more>>

Cecile, who was wearing a gorgeous dress and expensive jewels, said gloomily.

That would all be the price of selling Elena.

The only mother sold Elena to collect money, and the only younger sister was terminally ill and had limited time.

Elena had only one choice.

‘You are welcome to come visit me if needed.’

It was none other than to pry open the gap to the door of the unfamiliar man's room. <<less

In an attempt to escape from the Baron family, Diana, the illegitimate child of Baron Laffin, married Erno Larson Penrill, known as a monster that devours his brides.... more>>

Nevertheless, in her husband’s eyes, she would leave him anyway. She was a deceiver, constantly weaving clumsy lies; she was a mere figure in name only.

“Just stay as you are now, wife.”

“Don’t do anything unnecessary; don’t dare to covet my love. Just exist as a mere figure in name.”

Diana needed a place to belong and a name for her to exist alone, away from the Baron family.

She couldn’t bear to let go, even though she knew she was nothing more than a convenient scarecrow and would be rejected by everyone.

However, the moment she obediently let go of her greed to merely exist as her husband wished,

“Please stay as you are,”

“Just as now. Stay like this.”

Erno’s regrets began.

On the night Diana escaped with a child in her womb, Erno made a vow:

The end of this misunderstanding will not be regret, but a reunion. <<less

The empire’s margrave, the Valiant Brown Lion, the owner of the famed sword, Ascaron.
And the lord of the territory, ‘Genevu’, located at the empire’s borders and in the Atlas Mountains, which touched the skies.

‘Marquis Balt Haustein Friedrich Morenheitz.’

In order to save the lives of a woman and two children he had never seen before, he had to cut the legs of his beloved horse and pierced a sword into its throat.

"Bring the children's father. I will hold him accountable for the price of the horse's life."
"I don’t have a husband."

Blue eyes, resembling the still spring waters of the deep mountains, stared back at Balt.

"If there's anything I can do to repay you with a woman's body… I'll do it."
"Anything?"

Filled only with confusion and instinctual desire, Balt embraces Claire, a widow and a mother of three.

But that night, he realises that he is her first man.

"Why did you lie to me? Explain yourself immediately."
"Just leave me alone. Because there isn’t anything I want."
"What are you actually afraid of?"

The east wind, carrying the cold air of Atlas, blew through Genevu as spring arrived.

"Am I unable to make you the Marchioness? Or perhaps, I’ll actually make it happen?"

An icy, blue-eyed woman, whom he was unable to abandon, and unwilling to forsake. Before these two, an unfathomable and cruel fate unfolds. <<less

“I-is it a dream?”

“It’s not a dream.”

Unexpectedly, while looking for a way out, I started living together with the villain on a marriage contract.

“I love you.”

The male lead, the crown prince who hated everything and everyone, confessed to me.

“I don’t want to go back.”

Ludwig’s blue eyes, which used to be as dry as a desert, wavered like the blue sea.

I want you to stay with me. Don’t go.

“Ashily.”

Ludwig’s sincerity finally grabbed Ashily’s heart. <<less

“Artea is my niece.”
“She's also my niece.”... more>>

It is 100% correct to say that you should not have double in-laws. I was just trying to raise my niece.

“Bellona, Marry me.”
"What?"
“Isn’t this the best way for both of us to raise Artea?”

Suddenly, the contract marriage with my ex-boyfriend began. No way!

“My uncle loved my aunt so much that he asked her to marry him.”
“Aaaah, it’s romantic!”

But is it okay to lie to this extent? I did it?

“Wow, dancing with my aunt and uncle is pretty!”
“My aunt and uncle love each other so much, so they say I have to go out with them sometimes to go on dates!”

Thanks to my niece’s help, or rather, interference. Now I sleep in the same bed every day. Is this… right?

“Auntie can’t run away. If she does, my uncle will catch her.”
"Yes. I won’t let you go!”

It is clearly a contract marriage made with divorce in mind, but there is no way out. <<less

She abandoned her life as a noblewoman and became a librarian, living each day quietly and diligently.... more>>

In front of her appeared a man named Karl von Valles.

But the crown prince keeps interrupting her rest.

"Grace Brodin."

He called out her name softly.
She must’ve been mistaken, but somehow, it feels like he's hurt.

"Why do you refuse so vehemently?"

As he gradually approached her face,
Grace unknowingly nibbled on her lower lip.
Is he attacking suddenly with his beauty?

"Still, I can’t accept it."

Please, can't you just leave me alone? <<less
