“Your indifference is driving me crazy.”... more>>

To Han Yeowon, Lee Taegang existed in a category different from all other people. There were friends, lovers, family, and then there was Lee Taegang.

However, when Lee Taegang started coming on strong as if he had unleashed something within himself, Han Yeowon was thrown into turmoil.

While he worried about losing Lee Taegang, who was more important to him than family, he was also caught in the contradictory emotion of wanting to immediately give in to his demands…

In the end, what will be the outcome of this relationship between these two people that has crossed the line? <<less

Chae Beomjun, whose lifelong wish is to die during s*x, never believed in love. He never thought the day would come when he would confess his love.... more>>

“I guess I like you.”

“So, you want to date? No way! I just want to have s*x with you.”

“If you date me, I’ll make sure you get plenty of that.”

“I can get plenty of that without dating you.”

He never expected such a response to his confession.

“Listen, ahjussi. My ideal type is someone eight years younger than me, have a big dick, and modest.”

Unfortunately, Chae Beomjun was exactly eight years older than Seo Haeyoon and had slept with more people than he could count. In other words, he was a corrupted whore.

“…But I match one of those criteria. Can’t we make it work?”

“How much do you love me? Can you cut that off too?”

When he insisted, Seo Haeyoon scoffed. Of course, he pushed even harder.

So, the who*e brought a contract.

“Article 1. Obligations of the Contracting Parties

1. Party A (Seo Haeyoon) promises to love Party B (Chae Beomjun) for life, even if Party B becomes impotent.”

He must have been out of his mind. <<less

In an era where the sea is drying up.

In a world where things have become more precious than people,

‘Bada’, who worked at ‘Oceans’, encounters an unexpected person.

It’s Joo Dohwa, the heir to the ‘Four Seas Group’ that monopolizes the sea.

“I’ll take that one. How much?”

A relaxed and slow gaze that turns to look at him.

Normally, they would never have met, given their different social classes.

But Joo Do-hwa, who came all the way here to buy a person, had only one request for Bada.

“I’ll call you ‘hyung’ (older brother). In return, you speak to me informally. How about it?”

A ‘hyung’ he briefly spent time with as a child, the one who disappeared after stealing something important from him—

He asked Bada to imitate that ‘hyung.’

“We’re playing a role. You’re the hyung, and I’m the younger brother.”

The time limit is until he loses interest.

As he said this, his golden eyes were filled with curiosity toward the stranger in front of him.

It wasn’t a difficult request. At least not for Bada.

‘He doesn’t seem to remember.’

Should I tell him? That I’m the one he’s looking for. <<less

4 years ago, Kwon Jae-jin, an ordinary person, appeared as the only guide for the S-class esper Seo Eui-woo.

Seo Eui-woo kidnapped him and demanded that he be guided without consent.

"Shall we check now? I wonder if you are a guide that matches me or not."

"Hurts, it hurts, ah, ngh! Ugh...... Stop......!"

"See, you can do guiding on me......."

Seo Eui-woo's crazy behavior, which seemed ruthless at first glance, had a good reason, and after 4 years that felt like war, Jae-jin eventually understood and accepted Seo Eui-woo.

Not only that, he was taken in by Seo Eui-woo's persistent love offensive and their relationship developed romantically!

They lived happily ever after......!

......It would've been great if it had ended with such a happy ending.

One sunny day, a gate in the yard burst, and Kwon Jae-jin got caught in it. He died with his limbs torn to pieces.

BAD ENDING.

That was the story of Kwon Jae-jin's first life before returning to this point. <<less

Cheon Sejoo, who had no choice but to join the organization to avenge his deceased sister. In the midst of living a life devoid of hope, he meets a young man who reminds him of his sister, prompting him to extend a small act of kindness to him.... more>>

If he had known that this light-hearted intention would become so burdensome, he wouldn’t have brought him into his life.

* * *

“I told you. It was always you first…”

His eyes, usually sharp, looked gentle today. Cheon Sejoo’s gaze was soft, sweet, and lingering.

“So take responsibility.”

It was always Cheon Sejoo who took the first step. He was the one who reached out to him first, the one who looked at him first. Sejin had merely taken his hand because he offered it, and looked at him because he gave him his gaze. And in doing so, he fell in love with that gentle man.

Sejin no longer wanted to see Cheon Sejoo drifting away from him.

If you can’t come to me, then I will go to you.

“Saint, you must marry me.”... more>>

Klaus Geshturn, God’s adversary who sought more than what was permitted to humans. He proposed to the fallen saint who had become useless, bringing about the decline of the religious order.

“Through this, our Antagon will shed the image of a heretic, and you, Saint, will be free.”

The moment Azniel, who had once rescued a wounded, emaciated boy with jet-black eyes and radiant blond hair a decade ago, saw him in the handsome man before her, there was no way she could resist taking his hand.

A prenuptial agreement filled only with favorable terms for her, a grand mansion, inexhaustible wealth in gold and treasures, and excessive generosity.

‘You will surely become free.’

Azniel believed the boy had returned to keep the long promise

“I asked my wife for nothing from the start.”

Until she faced the husband who never stood by her.

“You truly desire nothing… right?”

Everything the perfect husband offered tightened her throat and drained her dry.

And so, after exhausting her last purpose, Azniel left her husband without hesitation. There was nothing more for him to gain from this marriage, which had been her salvation in the mire.

But why?

“Even if I am repulsive, live by my side and disdain me.”

Why did he desperately seek her out?

“Please, don’t say that I was wrong….”

Kneeling at her feet and sobbing bitterly. <<less

Hiding his identity, he now works at a rural hotel, quietly awaiting his return. One day, a prosecutor named Jang Jinwoo appears before him.

“I’ve been curious about something for a while now. If you work at a place like this, do you get free heat relief services?”

“…Excuse me?”

Marvin reflexively responded to the sudden question.

“I don’t think someone with a partner would leave you in this state, so I figured maybe you handled it within the establishment.”

“I’m not sure what you mean…”

“I’m talking about you, Manager. You’re in heat, aren’t you? Do you really think the smell of cigarettes is enough to cover it up?”

At that moment, Marvin’s face stiffened. His black pupils, hidden in the shadows, trembled slightly. <<less

I was a saint candidate.... more>>

I fell into a scheme and ruined the duke, my only sponsor, I was falsely accused of trying to mu*der Diana, my rival, and died a miserable death.

‘I’m not a foreign object in some kind of third-rate novel… Why am I dying so s*upidly and absurdly?!’

In that moment, I realized.

I’ve really transmigrated into a character in a novel!

***

Me, Belzeth. 5 years old.

I’ve regressed back to my childhood like a miracle!

I’ve decided to live well this time, learning from my past mistakes.

To make matters worse, even my heart is gone.

Damn it! I might end up being the villainess again and die!

What a load of nonsense!

Please, whether you’re a goddess or whatever, just let me live a peaceful life! <<less

The first love that had met a cruel end appeared before her once more.... more>>

Do you, by any chance, remember? That we, too, once had such impulses. Cold lips pressed gently, and a red tongue peeked out between slightly parted lips.

It wasn’t a kiss.

It was merely a light touch, as if to gauge the other’s feelings. He didn’t move a muscle until her lips pulled away.

As if he hadn’t anticipated the mistake, the surprised look on his face made her feel embarrassed.

“…Sorry, did you not like it?”

Without a word, he looked up at her.

Blinking a few times as he stared directly at her, he suddenly grabbed her trembling wrist and whispered in a husky voice:

“Do it again.”

“…What?”

Her eyes opened wide.

“I said do it again. It was too short—I couldn’t tell if I liked it or not.” <<less

One night, Oscar picked up the key to a safe he had once desperately searched for. The person who came with it became a living key was a woman, extraordinary in every aspect. Her tearful eyes, naive actions, even her name and appearance. The woman was oddly irritating. He was even displeased at having to ponder how to describe that irritation. So, he wanted to temporarily put it out of sight, in a place where it couldn't be seen.... more>>

“I... want to be by your side.”

It was too ridiculous to be sincere, and far too pathetic to be temptation.

Therefore, the one who was ensnared was undoubtedly an idiot.

Even when subjected to all kinds of insults, the woman approached until the end. On those small, soft palms, which knew no calluses, Oscar von Reinhardt was played with.

So, I must hold you accountable.

To you, who never had sincerity, not even for a single moment.

Until the very end...

To you, who even hid your name from me,

I will hold you accountable, very cruelly.

Oscar von Reinhardt – The head of the Reinhardt dukedom, with black curly hair and blue eyes. He owns the railway that crosses the Norfolk continent and the largest steel company on the continent. He is willing to do anything for his goals, even if it means kissing the back his enemy’s hand. He has brought his ruined family back to prominence through extreme efficiency. Therefore, he spurns himself for falling for the wiles of such ridiculous seduction, nor can he forgive the woman who made him feel this way.

Han Seo Ah – A mixed-race individual with brown hair and brown eyes. She has been an outsider from the moment she formed her first memory. Her appearance stands out, to the point she is suspicious of her birth. The starting point of her sin was when she came into existence. Therefore, she wishes to atone for all her wrongdoings; to her grandfather, and to that man whose mere presence makes her heart flutter. <<less

Cesare Traon Karl Erzet, the Imperial Commander-in-Chief.... more>>

After three years of service in the war, he returned to propose to Eileen.

Eileen struggled to believe that Cesare’s marriage proposal was sincere.

After all, from the moment they met when she was ten,

The affectionate man had always treated her like a child.

“I don’t—I don’t want to marry Your Highness.”

For so long, her love for him was unrequited.

She did not wish for their marriage to be a transaction.

Was it because of the long war?

The man, who was normally cool and rational, had changed.

His impulsive actions, his unbridled desire for her—they were all too unfamiliar.

“This should only be done with someone you love!”

“You can also do it with the person you plan to marry.”

Eileen was intrigued by this change.

And yet, the closer she became with Cesare…

She discovered things that defied reason or logic.

Eileen learned about her husband’s many evil deeds not long after.

“I couldn’t even have your body, Eileen.”

Everything he did was for her.

He became the villain, only for his Eileen. <<less

Possessed as the male lead’s younger sister.... more>>

Having lost my parents in the war and living alone with my brother, I get a job at the notorious Duke of Akarut.

“Hey, what’s your name?”

“It’s Chase.”

However, there were a few issues ―

I was currently in disguise as a boy, and the problem was that in the future, the Duke was going to kill my older brother.

In the end, I ran away to survive… but Raiden Akarut came looking for me.

“What does the Duke want from me?”

“I’m sorry, but I have a lot I want from you.”

His voice was strange.

When I tried to turn my head to look at him, Raiden buried his face in my shoulder.

“…You probably don’t want anything from me, but I do. When I see you, it makes me angry.”

Raiden tightened his arms around my waist. <<less

"Did you marry me because I look like her?"... more>>

Song-hyun asked, her voice trembling. Yoon Seung-ha’s expression remained cold and unreadable.

Song-hyun had always harbored feelings for her boss, Yoon Seung-ha. After a business trip to Busan, they grew closer, and eventually, she found herself pregnant and married to him. But…

“I heard he tried to run away with that woman. He wanted to live with her, even though she had his brother-in-law’s child.”

The cold, measured voice echoed in her mind, and it was then that Song-hyun finally learned the truth.

“Did you marry me because I look like her?”

If he couldn’t have that woman, was she just a substitute? To Song-hyun, it felt as though all the moments of sincerity that Seung-ha occasionally showed her weren’t really meant for her at all. His kindness, his warmth—everything she thought was hers—belonged to someone else.

“So what if that’s true?”

Seung-ha’s dry, mocking laughter brushed against her ears as she lowered her gaze in despair.

“Song-hyun.”

He called her name softly, and when she didn’t respond, a large hand lifted her chin. Song-hyun stared at him blankly, the man in front of her feeling like a stranger once again—never like a husband.

“What if you are just a replacement for her?” <<less

Rumors circulated that he only cared about money, had blighted affairs with his adulterous sponsors, and abandoned his fellow group members he had known for two-years after renegotiating a contract with a major entertainment agency.... more>>

He had taken possession of the body of a hopeless idol whose common moniker was "Beautiful Scum".

He thought he got blatantly ripped-off by signing that contract.

Everything aforementioned had been far from his actual self. He was a sob-story right out of a melodrama; not even close to being 'scum'.

This was the tale of how he, enraged by the body of the previous possessor's shitty life, personally took revenge for him.

So far, everything had gone accordingly. However, in the process, he gradually tamed the people around him.

He posed/masqueraded/feigned his pessimism as optimism.

Sometimes he appeared stoic, and other times cordial,
Whilst simultaneously acting innocent.
He was the sole person unaware of the harem that, little by little, began to encompass him. <<less
