“Would you be so kind as to bear me a… flawed child, born of a mad dog, Lady?”... more>>

“…Gladly.”

There were no other options.

People called her a mad dog, her family drove her to the brink of death, and finally, the fiancé she trusted fell in love with her younger sister.

This man was her only remaining option.

“Then shall I give you some advice, Lady?”

“I say this because it seems the Lady operates in a rather inefficient manner.”

“Or perhaps, you expend a considerable amount of futile effort.”

He offered unsolicited advice. And then…

“I heard you’re in urgent need of a bride. You need a… less than desirable bride, one with a tarnished reputation.”

“Indeed. Your reputation is… less than desirable. Not just a mad dog, but a mad dog tainted by countless scandals.”

“But I’m not actually mad. If you’re worried about an heir…”

“No. I’d actually prefer one who’s actually mad.”

“…”

“Come to think of it, it would be nice to have an heir who inherited madness from a mad dog. Perfect.”

There was no one else but this man who would speak to her this way.

It was a meeting born of necessity.

This was a promise meant to be broken in time.

“A divorce? Don’t be absurd.”

He changed his tune,

“Unfortunately, you’re not going anywhere.”

Not until he looked at her with eyes that seemed to burn. <<less

[Your father’s cause of death was not su*cide.] ... more>>

Yoo Ji-ah joined Sekyung Group to find the father who had abandoned her family, a man who worked there as an executive. However, before Ji-ah could even ask for a reason, her father’s life ends in an apparent su*cide.

And then, a message that struck like a bolt from the blue on the day of her father’s funeral.

That her father’s death was not a su*cide. That he had, in fact, been forced to leave Ji-ah. And…

“So, f*ck, do I have to come all the way to a funeral parlor just to clean up two corpses?”

The man she met by accident in the funeral hall’s parking lot, Executive Director Ha Sehyun of Sekyung Group.

“Don’t you need money?”

“…”

“If you give a statement for the police report, I’ll make sure the compensation is generous.”

“No, thank you.”

“If you don’t like that, I can make another offer.”

“…”

“You’re welcome anytime. Because you’re my type.”

The man who fell upon her like a bolt from the blue, whose mouth was filthy but whose face was just as beautiful.

“I suspect it was the doing of Executive Director Ha Sehyun.”

That he was the one behind her father’s death.

Half-believing, half-doubting, Ji-ah ultimately approaches Executive Director Ha Sehyun to shake off her lingering feelings, and for her own reasons and a shot at petty revenge.

“That other offer you made back then, is it still valid?”

“Why? Have you taken an interest now?”

From that moment on, her life begins to twist in an uncontrollable direction. <<less

For ten years, I held an unrequited love for him.... more>>

That he was the heir to our enemy family meant nothing.

I was happy even when I was sold off into marriage, like a transaction between families.

However, he still saw me as nothing more than the daughter of his enemy.

Our once-a-month, obligatory night together was the only time I could see his face.

But I didn’t mind.

Not until our child died.

“Stay quiet in that room and act as if you don’t exist. It’ll be for your own good.”

I hated him. I resented him for ignoring our child’s death, for being indifferent to my despair and sorrow. Thus, I chose to end my own life.

Then, I regressed countless times. Determined to never be entangled with him again, I fled the arranged marriage and married another.

But in every life, I could never have my precious child, Deynión.

On my eleventh return, I found myself standing before him once more, at our wedding.

“Do you, the bride, Juliana de Heyster, swear upon the

mission Heyster had entrusted to you to love the man before you?”

“Yes.”

No. There will be no love between us.

Once I have the child I want from you, I will disappear. <<less

[I DON’T DO ADULTERY INVESTIGATIONS

CONTRACT k!ll!ngs, f*ck OFF

I DON’T COLLECT EVIDENCE]

[WELCOME TO THOSE CURIOUS ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE’S NAME PAIRS / OTHER PEOPLE’S WEAKNESSES]

Ssangryeong is on the run. The entire world is hell-bent on catching him.

His crime?

Stealing Name information of the noblest individuals from the noble Home Nation.

And he’s caught.

By Pienne, the new ruler of the Dependent Nation.

“You’ve been through a lot. Finding you took quite some time.”

Pienne slowly walked towards him.

“Location unknown, affiliation unknown, appearance unknown, family unknown.”

“…….”

“All the information we had was that you had an abnormal memory and were an uneducated, rude b*stard.”

A silver handcuff was thrown at Ssangryeong’s feet. Pienne gestured towards the handcuff with his eyes.

Just when Ssangryeong thought he was going to be dragged away and k!lled, to make matters worse, he ends up entering into an absurd deal with Pienne… <<less

Rosette Demianne was a beautiful princess, the heart of the kingdom of Hercia, a colorful flower, and the darling of her people.... more>>

When the Kaisen Empire advanced on her kingdom, she offered the Emperor of the Empire a deal in exchange for her abilities.

"I will use my abilities to help you and the empire, and when my usefulness is complete... then you can abandon me."

"A princess who sacrifices herself to save her country... how heartbreaking."

Soon, however, Rosette got a glimpse of her future, where she was horrifically killed by the Emperor. Disheartened by the bleakness of her situation, she decided to change her future to avoid repeating it.

And so Rosette left her country. As she struggled to survive, his eyes were drawn to Rosette.

Theodore now began to show a terrible obsession with her…

"I'm so glad you have something to protect. My Rosette." <<less

The saintess Elze, “God’s Mistake”.... more>>

She dies after failing to prevent the world’s end and returns to her life before she became a saint.

“If I’m not here, this time everything will happen as it should.”

But someone who remembers the past comes to find her.

“A priestess with the strongest divine power—that’s what makes a saint.”

Nathan, the hero who once left the fate of the world in Elze’s hands. And the man she secretly loved.

“Can you really be so certain? That it won’t happen again?”

“…”

“If you truly don’t want to be a saint, then you need to fall to ruin properly.”

“…I will. If it means I can lose this power and truly change the future.”

Divine power is the evidence of being loved by God. Losing it means committing a sin that disappoints God.

“What kind of sin are you planning to commit?”

“Whatever it takes, I’ll do it. So please, move aside!”

“Then do it now.”

“…What?”

“You said you’d commit any sin. That means it doesn’t matter what sin it is, right?”

Nathan guided her hand onto his body—over his chest, sternum, muscles… His bare, unguarded body was strong, warm, solid… and terrifyingly vulnerable.

“Prove it to me.”

Let’s see just how far you can fall. <<less
