“We should break off the engagement, Idina.”... more>>

Her long-time fiancé announces the breakup of their engagement.

Idina, who had no expectations of a happy marriage anyway, was delighted by the news.

The only thing she was worried about was that a banquet hosted by the royal family was going to be held that day. It was obvious that people would gossip about it.

However, the banquet, which was held after a long time, turned out to be a masquerade ball, and it was impossible to tell who was who.

In the midst of all this, the emperor made a declaration.

“The crown prince will present a very special token to the person who he dances with first today. And that woman will become our royal princess.”

However, Idina, who thought there would be someone chosen in advance, shared her first dance with the Alpha, who was sitting next to her.

Then, a sudden heat cycle occurred and she ended up spending a passionate night with the polite Alpha….?!

And the next day.

“Then, last night, His Highness the Crown Prince’s first dance partner was me. I will really….”

“You will be the Crown Princess.”

Idina had suddenly become a candidate for the Crown Princess, pregnant with a royal grandchild. <<less

At fifteen, her heart fluttered with a first crush. In college, it ached with her first love. Now, Han Ga-young’s heart aches for only one person—Yoon Taemin. For years, she’s harbored feelings for him, unable to even consider anyone else. Hiding such a deep love is a lonely struggle no one else can understand. She knows she must endure the pain, because if her feelings are revealed, everything between them could shatter.... more>>

Her lips, which had been trembling, finally parted in a quiet whisper.

“I… I just want us to be able to see each other for a long, long time.”

“For a long, long time?”

“Yeah. But for that to happen… we need to…”

“Not that! Tell me how you really feel. What’s really the problem?”

“I’m scared.”

Taemin’s mouth fell open at Gayoung’s unexpected words.

“What?”

“I’m afraid I’ll end up like your other women. That I’ll just stay by your side for a while and then get left behind.”

So that was it? Only then did Taemin finally understand why Gayoung had acted the way she did. That was it.

“Han Gayoung.”

“I could end up like that, couldn’t I? I mean, I’m the one you’re with now, so it’s not like we’d break up because of someone else. But if I ever asked to break up, you wouldn’t even look back. And then… we’d never see each other again, right?”

Terror washed over Gayoung’s face. The thought that she could lose Taemin, whom she’d kept in her heart for fifteen years, in an instant like that was even more frightening than the idea of him loving someone else.

“Do you still not understand?”

“I really don’t know. Just having these thoughts is exhausting. If we just stayed friends…”

“Do you really think we could stay friends forever? You want to kill your feelings and just stay by my side for a long time like that? Watching me meet other women, watching you meet other men, and just slowly drifting apart?”

Her hands, clenched tightly in her lap, were turning white. Taemin took her hands, pressed his lips to her fingertips, and held them to his chest.

“Can you feel it?”

Gayoung could feel Taemin’s heart pounding fiercely against her palm.

“My heart races like crazy every time I see you. I only realized recently why I could walk away from other women so easily. Why I couldn’t even stand to hear your name, why I insisted on coming to Seollem and acting that way in front of you. I’m sorry I realized it so late. So let’s try. How will we ever know if we don’t even try?”

“Taemin.”

“If we regret it later, at least we won’t have any lingering what-ifs, right?”

Gayoung squeezed her eyes shut, then slowly opened them and answered.

“Okay.”

Yeah. Even if we end up regretting it, just this once... just this one time, I’ll close my eyes and take the leap.

Taemin squeezed Gayoung’s hand tightly.

The thrill of being with her. The thrill of being with you. <<less

“What are you thinking about?”... more>>

“I’m thinking about a guy.”

KyungHyun stopped in the middle of a deep kiss and sighed. His lips began to form a smile, but his fierce glare said otherwise. Possessiveness and jealousy spread across his sculpted face.

“Will you tell me his name?”

His easygoing and languid voice reached her ears.

“Why?”

“So that I can shoot him down.” <<less

He’s been able to see ghosts since childhood. His face, hidden behind long bangs and horn-rimmed glasses, is always shadowed. After discovering that ghosts don’t approach him when he’s near sunbae Young-won from their shared elective class, he’s been secretly stealing his positive energy. Though prickly like a hedgehog on the outside, he has a soft heart and unknowingly keeps pulling Young-won’s emotions in different directions.... more>>

Young-won was used to everyone approaching him with goodwill, so he became intrigued by Mo Yeon, the strangest person in school who showed no interest in him. He eventually becomes even more clingy than the ghosts to the cat-like Mo Yeon, while simultaneously suffering from severe denial about his feelings.

Mo Yeon discovers that ghosts don’t approach Young-won, the school’s brightest star, and becomes his stalker and energy thief. In the process, he learns new things about Young-won – contrary to his public image, he actually has a sharp tongue and isn’t so clean in matters of romance.

One day, when he wasn’t wearing his glasses, Mo Yeon is mistakenly labeled by Young-won as a gay man who wants to sleep with him. After that, Mo Yeon decides to steal his energy without any guilt. Fortunately, Young-won’s terrible face recognition means he doesn’t recognize Mo Yeon at school. He doesn’t seem to connect the quiet presence at school with his “gay neighbor.”

Just as things were going smoothly, Young-won approaches Mo Yeon using a group project as an excuse… <<less

"I'm tired. I want to stop now."... more>>

Dowook tilted his head slightly. He raised his subtly thick eyebrows as if to ask what that meant.

"You and I have been together for fifteen years, and we've been dating for eight."

"Only eight years."

"Yes, as many as eight years."

Dowook's eyes sink terrifyingly. With those eyes, he called out gently, "Junhee."

"I must have upset you because I'm drunk today. Are you angry because I called you out late at night while soaked in alcohol? I won't do it again. I'll be damn obedient. Please cut me some slack. You don't contact me. You say you will, but you damn well don't. So of course I'd be upset, wouldn't I?"

"Being by your side isn't enjoyable at all. It's not exciting."

"......"

He stared directly at Junhee as he stubbed out the cigarette he was smoking on the window frame. It was a nervous gesture. Then, as if the buttoned collar filling his nape was suffocating, he roughly pulled down the neckline of his shirt.

He glares at Junhee again as if to kill her. Junhee also looked up at those eyes as if confronting him. Dowook twisted his lips, smirking.

"If it was going to be like this, we should have just had car s*x."

A low, deep laugh brushed against her nape. <<less

A man known only by rumor, shrouded in mystery—Kang Moochan.... more>>

"Whether I can truly suppress the monster inside me and protect her to the very end..."

A man who loved one woman to the point of ruin.

"Just as you needed money, Lee Eunsoo, I needed you. Let’s leave it at that."

A woman who had nothing but debt, pride, and her body—Lee Eunsoo.

"...I asked him to buy me. For as much as possible. At the highest price."

Life had been so hard she had never once loved anyone.

"Please don’t make me feel guilty, sir."

—From the novel—

"What brings you here at this hour, Eunsoo?"

Relieved by the familiarity in his voice, Eunsoo lets out a soft sigh and manages a faint smile. "It’s nothing. I just haven’t been able to come for a few days. I wanted to stay by your side..."

Moochan tries to close the door on her, his tone cold. "That’s not necessary anymore. Go home."

Startled by his rejection, Eunsoo quickly blocks the door with her foot. "Why are you acting like this, sir?"

"I told you to leave."

Determined, Eunsoo pushes past him. Displeased, Moochan furrows his brow and grabs her arm, stopping her from coming any further.

"You’re hurting me, sir!"

"Eunsoo, you seem to be under a big misconception. Do you think there’s something between us? We were bound by a contract—nothing more, nothing less. And now that the contract is over, you can’t just barge in like this."

Frozen by his coldness, Eunsoo can only stare at him with wounded eyes. She knows he’s never given her any hope, but did he have to push her away so harshly?

"We can just extend the contract."

She wants to stay by his side, even if it means lowering herself, even if it means being the villain.

"I need the money anyway."

With a forced smile, Eunsoo tries to hide her pain. Moochan’s gaze is icy.

"And you need me, too, sir." <<less

Summary 1:... more>>

At 26 years old, Duan Baisui faced two choices:

1. Marry an Omega with a high compatibility score from the pheromone match database.

2. Fulfill his childhood promise and marry his "silly" childhood friend.

Duan Baisui chose the second option.

Summary 2:

After the wedding, Duan Baisui was polite and respectful to his "silly" spouse but lacked the intimacy expected between lovers.

However, his spouse wasn’t entirely foolish—he was just slower to react than most, but he understood emotions that mattered.

When entertainment tabloids published rumors about Duan Baisui’s alleged affair, the "silly" spouse arranged a meeting with the rumored third party.

He pushed two bank cards and a piggy bank in front of the man.

With a serious and earnest expression, he said, “Here is a total of 2,078,645.5 yuan. I’m giving you everything. Please leave my husband immediately. I know the market price is 5 million, and I’ll pay the remaining amount in installments.”

The rumored third party: ?

Due to his aggressive nature, he is the terrifying and stern Northern Duke Dietrich Reinke, whom no one dares to approach easily.... more>>

In reality, he’s ‘just’ a cat-person.

“Kissing someone without knowing the colour of their eyes, really?”... more>>

Hexion sneered as he looked at the restrained man. Even a disaster grade esper didn’t seem like much.

“Ugh…”

A dry and rough kiss, under the guise of guiding, continued. Eventually, light purple irises were revealed beneath the forcibly removed blindfold. The esper, Zero Nine, muttered unconsciously. “I feel… surprisingly good.”

“A kiss has awakened you.”

Of course it would feel good. Despite the slight sarcasm, Zero Nine asked with a somewhat dazed look. “…Did we kiss?”

“Yes, we did. On someone’s orders.”

Bloody, torn lips, gaunt cheeks, pale skin, and flushed ears.

“Then, would you kiss me just once more?”

The man, who had been on the verge of rampaging just moments ago, said. Hexion lowered his head and commanded,

“Open your mouth.”
