One day, when I opened my eyes, I became the 5th prince of the empire that appeared in the novel.... more>>

I was supposed to be happy.

But the empire fell and the 5th Prince was horribly killed. <<less

Owner of the opulent great theatre, a man with whom anyone may fall in love at first sight.... more>>

The audience recognized the famous name when they saw Edgar Wharton, the blond, gorgeous man enter the theatre.

Even though he makes several females lose sleep over their affection for him, Natalie has a crush on a genuine gentleman rather than this showy socialite.

However, Edgar Wharton, famous for winning ladies' hearts with his attractive grin, accidentally revealed her hidden, unrequited love.

"I'll help you."

The playboy of the social world and the bookworm of the baron's family shared a common goal: to assist each other in finding love.

“Natalie, will you be my girlfriend? Leonard will fall in love with you, and we can break up."

The curtain was raised on a play called 'Contract Dating,' in which the goal was to avoid falling for the other's act of love.

***

"I'm not good at deceiving others."

"Then try loving me."

The dominant man's smile was so appealing that it appeared seductive.

He asked her to cross the border, but he remained in place, commanding love but not loving.

Natalie vowed not to love him or allow herself to love him. But...

"Do you want to mess up my daily life?"

"Is it okay if I mess it up?"

Mr. Wharton smiled mischievously as he examined Natalie's lips.

"How far will you allow me?"

Can they avoid falling in love by the end of the play? <<less

“You’re supposed to love me, it’s our destiny…! But why…”... more>>

Aveline and Kazel were destined lovers, brought together by the gods.

Therefore, Aveline loved Kazel.

And Kazel, too, had to love Aveline…

“Could it be that you love that woman?”

“And if I do?”

“…What?”

He defied his fate, and he fell in love with another woman.

Chlone, if only she could break that woman’s delicate neck…

But Aveline couldn’t lay a finger on her.

“It means the destined lovers in the prophecy are the Duke and Lady Chlone.”

Even the fate that barely tied them together wasn’t on her side.

*

“I wish I were the woman you loved.”

“Are you still talking about that?”

Kazel cut her off, finding it tiresome.

The man’s face, stripped even of obligatory kindness, turned as cold as a grim reaper.

“Okay. I guess I should stop dreaming in vain now.”

“What…?”

“I lost, Kazel.”

Aveline forced a smile.

“I’ll send you to her.”

The stage, where God had been mocking the foolishness of humans, was completely drawn to a close.

Now was the time for her to exit. <<less

I’m reincarnated into a tr*shy regret novel. My role is the villainess who secretly loves her husband, the male lead. The shallow wife whose only purpose is to hurt the female lead, a former s*ave.... more>>

“You’re not thinking straight, are you?”

I don’t want to be scorned by a cheating husband who says things like.

“I want a divorce.”

I decided to escape, and now I could start my own business, make a fortune, and live happily ever after.

But as I was living a comfortable life with my newly acquired wealth after the divorce, I heard news that my ex-husband abandoned the female lead.

Well, honestly, I guess it’s none of my business?

“Let’s get back together; it was my fault.”

No, what exactly is he doing?

***

There’s something off about the guy I picked up and used as a bodyguard. Is he really the second lead in this story?

“I heard about you. You said you were playing around with this guy and that guy.”

Well, those are the stories of the previous owner of this body, not mine…….

Well, no way. Is this the repertoire for going to the female lead after saying you were disappointed?

“Why? Are you disappointed and disgusted after hearing the rumors?”

However, he shook his head and rested his cheek on my palm.

“No. I’m just curious why you’re not playing with me….”

… … huh?

What is he talking about? <<less

A witch who killed a couple hundreds of people. A rare mu*derer. The illegitimate child of the late Duke Amber. Beatrice Amber has returned thirteen times for unknown reasons.... more>>

In her first life, she was executed for killing a priest and in her second life, she was executed for mu*dering her husband. In one life, she left her family, lived in a remote land, and died of old age. She was mu*dered in another life, and another where she eventually killed herself.

But when she wakes up, it’s always back to the same time as always. At 9 a.m. in January, when she turned 18. Tired of everything, she lived her thirteenth life as a witch. I killed if I had to, and I killed when someone asked me to. Beatrice was notorious as a witch who killed more than 100 people and was executed once again.

And I woke up again at 9 a.m. in January when I was 18 years old. I have to find a way to die. <<less

On the very first day I crossed into a strange new world, I captured the Demon King.... more>>

An angel appeared before me and spoke, "Hero, you’re progressing too quickly." <<less

Abandoned by everyone, she died miserably. Her unjust life came to an end, and damn it, she returned to the past.... more>>

‘A mother and daughter dying like dogs together. What a pity.’

She couldn't even die with dignity.

That unjust, miserable death brought Charloff back to that day when she was nineteen.

"I'll leave now."

It was time to end it all.

She didn't care if this life fell apart. She had no regrets, no lingering attachments.

"I don't care if I'm ruined."

She would send her mother back to her family home, the place she longed for while she was alive.

In her past life, she threw herself away for the emperor, Benjamin Visenov, the man who mu*dered his own family and relatives, the one they called an unfilial monster. They called him a beast, a tyrant...

"I still thirst for you."

He thirsts. <<less

I spent the night with a Duke known as the greatest psychopathic villain in history.... more>>

“W–well, I don’t actually remember what happened yesterday, but it was just a one-night thing, so……”

“A one-night thing?”

His face, which had remained expressionless until now, raised an eyebrow at that. I’d to choose my words carefully.

“T–then, a one night of comfort……?”

“You comfort someone by f*cking them?”

“S-sorry! I misspoke!”

I was terrified.

I glanced at his face and forced the brightest smile I could. They said you couldn’t spit on a smiling face, right?

“T–then with your ocean-like generosity, could we just bury yesterday as a good memory for both of us……?”

“I’m afraid I can’t do that.”

/////

At this point, there’s only one way out. I must get myself dumped by my scary husband-to-be first.

So, I set out to do every single thing he would hate. But then—

“I-I thought you meant to do it by the window…”

“You’ve got some pe*verted preferences. If that’s what you want, I’ll oblige.”

“N-no, I don’t want it!”

…… In the end, his obsession only grew worse by the day. <<less

I found myself transmigrated into a novel full of obsession and tragedy, but I didn’t care one bit. I was neither the heroine nor the villainess; I was just a passing noblewoman. I felt a bit of remorse for the heroine, who would rescue a child and suffer at the hands of the villain, but the male lead would save her in the end, anyway.... more>>

I had nothing to worry about in my life.

“This is insane! Are you crazy, Brother?!”

Until my lunatic older brother came to me and said, “I have a gift for you!” and brought THAT child!

“Doesn’t he resemble that stray cat you used to like when you were little?”

Whatever! Take him back right now!

* * *

‘It’s fine, as long as I don’t get caught…’

I pretended to help the villain, who was madly looking for his missing younger brother, while I secretly kept an eye on him.

I was determined not to hand the child over to a human who wanted to use his little brother as a pawn in war, but…

“Rayna, tell me.”

His grip on my ankle grew stronger.

“Why do you keep lying to me and hiding Calyx, my little brother?” <<less

Rosie, who began working as a young maid at the estate of Count Kanies, Rutherford, encounters the most beautiful boy in the world.... more>>

“If you know your mistake, beg me more. With sincerity.”

The boy, whom she thought was beautiful, was a devil who ruined Rosie's life, and Rosie, at the end of her childhood, ran away from Rutherford.

And when she thought she could let everything go as the past, she meets the beautiful boy who has become a man again.

“I want you. Right now.”

The man proposes an irresistible deal and demands that Rosie give him everything again…

Will Rosie be able to escape from Michael? <<less

"Let's date!"... more>>

Because you like me, and I like you too!

On my 10th birthday, along with my past life, I remembered that this world was a romance fantasy novel. In addition to that, my current family will be ruined by the villain! Because of that, my beautiful life at the age of ten had a primary goal: to rehabilitate the villain—the first prince who was abandoned in the palace.

"Oho, you shouldn't use strength to suppress the weak."

"Conversation! Conversation! We have the wonderful means of conversation! Always choose to have a conversation first!"

"If the other party is hurt, even out of courtesy, ask if they're okay!"

Handsome! Well-raised! Someone who likes me so, so much! How could I not like someone like this?

But then... Could it be because he was raised too well?

"I'm sorry, we can't date right now."

"Why?"

"To truly earn your love, I must slay a dragon!"

That was something I said randomly while reading a romance novel...!

"I want to become a man worthy of being by your side. So, I'll catch a dragon!"

Crazy man! How could there be a dragon in this peaceful era! <<less

A friend of a friend.... more>>

Was it too much to wish that the relationship, which was vague just from the name, would not be awkward? No, at least there must have been a lot of ways not to face this in a naked state.

Sylvia Appleton closed her eyes tightly as she looked at the sturdy naked back that seemed to have come from mythology.

It’s already been ten years since she has been in love with her childhood friend.

The day her childhood friend got engaged to another woman, Sylvia spent the night with that friend’s friend.

But if only it had ended in a one-night mistake, she wouldn’t have suffered so much.

The problem was that after that day, Owen’s uninvited daily life and feelings began to be conveyed to her.

“Aah.”

Sylvia blushed as she recalled Owen’s excited moans while at a tea party where noble ladies were gathered.

Was she utterly insane? That much was obvious. The curse of ten years of unrequited love completely turned her daily life upside down. <<less

The day after I fought with my mom, I found myself in someone else’s body. As if that weren’t bad enough, the body she’s possessed happens to be…... more>>

“I became the villainess having only five years to live.”

I, on the other hand, was also a fake daughter who deceived the duke for a staggering nine years. And the real daughter is scheduled to return in a year, having become an outstanding magician, alchemist, spirit-tamer, and healer.

“When that time comes, imprisonment will be the minimum and death the maximum punishment.”

How can the fate of the villainess be changed?

“Why bother thinking about it? Obviously, I’m going to escape.”

Actually, there was another way… but it’s no longer an option. Ugh, didn’t expect that. Seriously. But hey, author, why did you write it like that?

“I will definitely escape from this place before the real daughter returns in glory!”

“I’ve never talked to Ethan about this concern. But I did with you,” the protagonist’s father, Duke Croft said.

“I’m fine now, Ellie. I wish you were too,” said the protagonist’s eldest brother, Ethan Croft.

“At the moment, the princess seems to expect nothing from me. So, we might become a decent couple.” <<less
