Before being born as Regina, she was an Empress in her past life named 'Yekarna'.... more>>

Having experienced the extremes of debauchery in her previous life as an Empress, she aims to lead a wholesome life this time around. However, her ill-fated connections from her past life, who have discerned her true identity, begin to approach one by one...

"Ask me to put it here, Your Majesty. I know you wanted it too."

"It's alright. If you can't remember me in your mind, I'll make sure you remember it in your body."

"You should be respectful with adults, Miss Heather."

"There's no need to surround yourself with many handsome men. But having me close by should be enough, right?"

Can she truly escape their clutches and attain a 'wholesome life'? <<less

Kang Ju-wan, a vampire who has seamlessly adapted to modern society, lives as a host in the bustling city. One day, he’s visited by Shin Hwi-kyung, a man whose engagement was broken off because of Ju-wan.... more>>

But Hwi-kyung’s visit isn’t just about grievances—he has a hidden agenda. When he suddenly tries to kidnap Ju-wan, it becomes clear that he knows far more about Juwan’s true identity than he should…

* * *

"…You don’t want to talk? Then maybe I’ll strip you naked, tie you up, and dump you outside in broad daylight. How about that?"

Ju-wan laughed out loud, his face showing nothing but boredom, as if this kind of taunt was tiresome.

"You’re a real piece of work, aren’t you? A twisted pe*vert."

"But you’re scared, aren’t you?"

In that brief moment, Ju-wan’s frantic movements came to a halt. Hwi-kyung smirked, his thin lips curling into a mocking grin.

"… Because you’re a vampire." <<less

[We propose the betrothal between Aranes, the third of the Rudwig family, and Sarovan of the Leigro family.]... more>>

A marriage contract bound by the King’s decree.

It was nothing more than a high wall, taking away the things I loved and attempting to steal a handful of freedom.

The man outside the fence just laughed. The phrase I most frequently heard from him was: ‘Don’t do it.’

"You are so annoying.”

“Show some respect, Nes. I am your fiánce.”

My freedom may eventually become yours, but my true love has been pledged to my sword.

I’ve dreamed of things women aren’t allowed to desire. To tear down the walls that confine me and to see his smug face filled with dismay.

But as I became a woman, and he became a man, Sarovan Leigro started to act a bit strange.

“Stop there, Nes. Let’s talk before you go.”

“No, why should I? I don’t like you.”

“To think you’ll have to veil your face and face a man you don't like. How pitiful.”

His presence still inflamed my anger to the point that it was going to burst.

“If you love the sword so much, then duel with me.”

“…What?”

“A sword duel, that thrilling feeling.”

Is he acknowledging my freedom, or is this another trap?

I’m not too kind to trust you, and you were too vile to let me go.

As time passed, I grew more afraid of you.

The strange heat in your gaze. The scolding in your tender voice. The cool honesty you shared only with me, everything.

For fear that I might no longer be able to hate you.

Lest I lose the strength to break through his cunning walls. <<less

Her fiancé who went to war is dead.... more>>

And her fiancé's best friend, the new heir to the dukedom, has a proposition for her.

"You need a safe place, and I need an heir to carry on the family name. So how about we do this?"

Refusing the offer was impossible from the start. <<less

“Stay a virg*n for 10 years, and then I'll accept your confession."... more>>

On the day of high school graduation, Gyu-jin put forward ridiculous conditions in response to a male junior's confession.

It was a hasty refusal.

“I have been clean and good for 10 years, but I guess you are not. Senior.”

Exactly 10 years later, the two met again.

Yeon-ho came to fulfill his promise and is blindly obsessed with Gyu-jin.

Gyu-jin, who insisted on only one-time relationships due to the hurt he received from his ex-lover, gradually opens his heart to devoted Yeon-ho...

Si Yeon-ho… He died 10 years ago? Then the person next to me, who the hell is he?”

An accident revealed a bitter truth.

A romantic thriller that crosses the present and past, life and death. <<less

Shin Jisoo is an ordinary woman in her thirties, but her life is a mess. Work is stressful, people are tiring, and now she even has to stop drinking. Feeling desperate, she goes to a shaman. But the fortune teller says something strange:... more>>

“You’re in for huge bad luck. Really big trouble.”

To stop this bad luck, Jisoo must meet a “big man.” It sounds silly — but then she really meets him. Chae Juwon is handsome and too charming to trust.

“I’ll tell you now — I don’t know why you’re here, but I’m not interested. I never sleep with people the old man sets me up with.”

Juwon is bold and sly. He shocks Jisoo the first time they meet. And by accident, she finds out that the “big” rumor about him is true.

“So, did you get my number just to try it out?”

Jisoo just wants a quiet life, but Juwon keeps pulling her into trouble. Still, in this mess, she finds new chances and feelings she can’t ignore.

“Why are you so kind to me, Mr. Chae?”

“I don’t know. I just want to be kind to you, Ms. Shin.”

As her biggest problem gets closer, this man keeps showing up. Can Jisoo really grab her “big luck” — or will it run away again? <<less

“…Are you telling me to die?”... more>>

“Even if you die, your child will live as they wish, so isn’t it a profitable business? In addition, you get revenge on those who have shaken your life.”

The Emperor of Escliffe, Ivan Wade Escliffe, smiled faintly. His large hands were just warm and soft as they stroked the small face, unlike the coldness that mocks the heart of a mother begging for her child’s life.

“Devilish human. I hate you. Now, really…”

“To hate when your life is full of lies.”

Ivan whispered sweetly. Tears distorted by sadness, hatred, contempt, and self-destruction fell to the floor.

“I shouldn’t have met you…”

“It would have been better if you weren’t in this world.”

Two hundred years ago, God sent Amelia, a priestess with black hair and black eyes, to the Empire. She is a divine being who neither ages nor dies, and she has become a being who delivers God’s revelations to the earth.

No one doubted her existence.

“Yes. Die for my children. If you were that desperate, even the damned God would allow you to die. Isn’t that so?”

Except for one thing, the man in front of her was the one who made Amelia a woman.

At one time, she had thought she was glad that he had noticed that she was an ordinary woman, but now she didn’t know if that was really a good thing. <<less

In a time of chaos caused by monster invasions, Ha-gyeom, who has manifested as a guide, is kidnapped to one of the rebuilt cities, Zone 0. There, he loses his family and is on the brink of becoming a resource rather than a person. However, he is rescued by Baek Seung-woo, an Esper from the central center, gaining a new lease on life.... more>>

"My name is... Baek Seung-woo. I'm nineteen years old."

Thanks to Baek Seung-woo’s dedication and efforts over the years, Ha-gyeom transforms into a respectable trainee. Although he always thought of Baek Seung-woo as a close brother, ever since overhearing a conversation, he starts feeling feverish and his heart begins to race.

"Ha-gyeom is like my beginner's spirit. I must never lose him."

Nurturing these hidden feelings, Ha-gyeom falls into despair again when Baek Seung-woo goes missing during a secret mission.

Training and waiting for his return for five years, Ha-gyeom turns twenty and has been guiding for a year. However, without a highly compatible Esper at the center, he is unable to fully utilize his abilities.

Then, he finally gets the opportunity to participate in a mission in Zone 0 and hears unexpected news upon his return.

"Matching rate 99 percent!"

In a place where a matching rate below 50 percent is considered a curse, around 70 percent is average, and above 80 percent is seen as divine luck, a rate of 99 percent is unheard of!

To make matters worse, Ha-gyeom faces a situation where he must forcibly guide an out-of-control Esper in Zone 0. Confronted by a familiar silhouette in the darkness, Ha-gyeom is shocked beyond belief. <<less

"Bring me the woman who slept with me and ran away."... more>>

"Pardon?"

"Long blonde hair, blue eyes, about shoulder height to me. Hmm... what's your height?"

"...Pardon?"

"She's exactly your height, so what's your height?"

A cold sweat ran down Chloe's back in an instant.

Yes, of course.

Because I'm the woman who slept with the Duke and ran away.

Of course, the Duke thinks I'm a man.

Chloe Liden disguised as her deceased brother to save her mother abd took a job at the Duke of Wolfaz. On the last day of her leave, she spent a night with the Duke in her true form. She thought it was a meaningless one-night stand since the Duke didn't know she was a woman.

That’s what she thought...

***

"What is this smell?"

"Pardon?"

"It seems like this smell is coming from you. Come closer."

The Duke kept insisting that he could smell the scent of the woman he spent the night with on her.

His sense of smell was insanely accurate.

As if he were some kind of beast!

If her identity as a woman was discovered, she would have to repay a year's salary, which she already spent on her mother's medicine, along with a penalty fee. Chloe decided to run away before she got caught. And her plan was almost successful.

Until the Duke came to catch her! <<less

Judith had once seen a living dragon.... more>>

His name was Serpion. A legendary archmage who, despite being born with ominous red eyes, had clawed his way to the top of Lumentia’s magical world through sheer ability. He stood as the shining master of the Ivory Tower, ranked No.1 among all magi. People praised him as though a mythical dragon had returned to life.

Just like that pristine tower that never lost its brilliance, everyone believed his name would shine forever. And oh, how that made her stomach twist with envy.

[Serpion Mirnoia. Dismissed by unanimous vote.]

But at last, the myth came to an end. Not just ended, completely and utterly collapsed.

[The criminal Serpion is hereby classified as a Tier 1 Threat. He is permanently expelled from all Lumentia institutions.]

The man who had once been Lumentia’s brightest star became a disgraced criminal overnight. Despite all his achievements, despite once being hailed a hero, Judith didn’t feel the slightest bit sorry for him.

If only he hadn’t cast forbidden magic. Or if, after doing it, he had shown even a shred of remorse. Or at the very least, if he hadn’t treated people like dirt his whole life. Then maybe people wouldn’t have been so eager to cut him off the moment he fell.

If not for all that, someone like Serpion, a man of such immense power, might never have fallen this far.

He had it coming. And he got what he deserved.

Judith, who knew better than anyone how insufferable he had been, laughed out loud at the news of his downfall.

“Hey there, Judith. Long time no see.”

She never imagined he would come looking for her himself. After eight years, he appeared, still brazen, still unashamed, and made her an outrageous offer.

“I’ll make you an archmage.”

He, a man who had lost everything, promised to turn her, a woman born without magical power and thus never even considered a mage, into a master of the arcane.

“But… you’re broke now, aren’t you?”

He had nothing left. And yet, he dared to make that promise. <<less
