In the quiet countryside village of Manoli, a newcomer named Robert arrives.... more>>

The stranger from the capital city of Laurent becomes the subject of countless rumours, yet no one in the village truly knows his identity.

Amid the swirl of gossip, the mysterious man shows a particular kindness to Sasha.

"If you want, you can come visit again."

"Anytime I want? Then what can I do for you in return?"

"I don’t need money. If you feel obliged, paint me a picture to hang on the wall."

With Robert’s permission, Sasha begins to visit his estate freely, painting as she pleases.

Meanwhile, Robert’s true identity as the Duke of Guienne—a renowned figure in Laurent's high society and the wealthiest man in Brissen—remains hidden. Initially approaching Sasha out of curiosity, the Duke begins to feel something more.

An unsettling urge, akin to desire but far more complex, gradually takes hold of him.

***

"I’ll be more careful from now on. So please, do the same."

Robert had been in a surprisingly good mood that morning—until Sasha said those words.

"So I don’t mistake you for someone close to me. Please."

"It sounds as if I’ve been bothering you."

His voice dropped an octave in an instant.

"Tell me, Sasha. Exactly how much have I confused you?" <<less

"I feel like I get better when I touch you. Can I do more?”... more>>

I found myself in the body of a short-lived extra in a 19+ novel that was halted midway. Now, I'm Levy Heron, the sickly daughter of a knight family with the ability to suppress demonic energy.

According to the original plot, Levy was supposed to die trying to suppress the rebellion that the final antagonist, the First Prince Demian, who lost the throne succession competition and was a ridiculously skilled sub-male lead, would initiate when demons appeared.

‘But there’s still time before that rebellion, so I can change the future.’

So, Levy decided to save the original female lead, who was living a miserable life, and neatly resolve her past crush on the original male lead, the second prince, Fred.

With the help of the original female lead, she gradually began to recover her frail body, and all she had to do was remain neutral until the end of the throne succession competition...

“Demons! Prepare yourselves!”

“You can’t handle this alone. Step back… Ugh!”

Suddenly, a demon appeared, a lustful demon that aroused desire, and while fighting it together, the First Prince Demian, who was going to rebel, was possessed by the demon.

I tried to suppress the demonic energy but ended up spending the night with him, a disastrous turn of events.

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

“Levy. It’s okay to touch anywhere, so please calm me down. Or you can just allow me to touch you freely.”

Demian, who was affected by the lust-inducing demon, kept seeking Levy Heron. At first, it was definitely to subdue the demonic that was heating his body.

“Ah…”

“Give me more. That sound from earlier.”

But why is it that now, even when the demonic energy is quiet, he only desires this woman? <<less

A man whose arrogance was as effortless as breathing. The noblest of nobles. A man who would set the world on fire for love.... more>>

That was my husband, Curtis.

I was nothing more than a wife destined to die at my husband's hand the moment Irvelyn - his 'woman' - became his love.

mu*dered by the very man who once called me his, I opened my eyes to the past. Given a second chance, I knew—I had to survive.

So I began to play the role of a lifetime.

A desperate, one-time performance to escape the man who would kill me again in a year.

***

"Dalia, time... Don't say the time we spent together meant nothing."

"And if it was nothing?"

Dalia's voice was calm, almost detached, her expression unreadable. It was so effortlessly indifferent that it left Curtis speechless.

Never in his life had anyone silenced him. No one had ever dared. But now, for the first time, his tongue refused to move.

Meanwhile, Dalia's pale lips - lips that had never spoken freely in his presence - parted, her words as soft and fleeting as a lark's song.

"It was nothing, Your Grace. That time... meant nothing."

A bond is not measured in time alone. Some fall in love in an instant, while others remain strangers even after a lifetime together.

"Memories that should have been built over time, something to hold on to..."

With a faint smile, Dalia spoke the last words of a relationship that never really existed.

"There was never anything between us, was there?" <<less

“If my death can bring you peace, Sister, then so be it.”... more>>

Rashid, the rightful heir of the Ducal House, has died.

The day before his funeral, Tericia is mu*dered.

And in the final moment of her life—

“Sister?”

She wakes up in the past. Rashid is alive again.

This time, she vows to protect him, restore the Ducal House, and then quietly walk away.

But—

“You're planning to leave me? I have no intention of letting you go.”

Who is this man speaking to her with such intensity?

“Do you really think this relationship—where you're the older sister and I'm the younger brother—can stay that way forever?”

The man holding her hand…

Is he truly the same Rashid she once knew?

“From the moment you took my hand that day, not once have I thought of you as my sister, Tericia.”

Rashid draws closer, filled with a possessive obsession.

Can Tericia truly leave him behind and make her wish come true?

And in the end… what is Tericia’s true wish? <<less

“That's a lie, right? That my mother has passed away!”... more>>

“No, it’s true, Epilosa.”

They had used my mother, the rightful heir chosen by the divine beast, as a sacrifice.

And they had lied to me, telling me she was alive.

“We killed your mother.”

I had endured grueling and degrading tasks to pay for her treatment.

But now, they intended to use me as the next sacrifice.

“I did everything you asked for the family. Why would you do something so cruel to me?”

“Family? You think you’re family? Ha!”

All I received in return was scornful laughter.

It was my fault.

I had been foolish.

Because of me, my mother…

‘I was wrong, Mother. I’m so sorry….’

If only I could fix everything.

- If given one more chance, could you truly set things right?

In the face of death, I heard a voice.

Desperately, I cried out,

- Yes, I mean it. If you give me a chance, I’ll set everything right. Please!

***

When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the past.

My mother was there.

She was alive!

I ran to her and embraced her tightly.

“Mother, this time I’ll protect you.”

In this life, I will take revenge on them,

and I will reclaim my mother’s rightful position as the head of the family. <<less

I became the young daughter-in-law of a ducal family that would be annihilated in ten years.... more>>

In truth, this family harbors a secret—they are ‘fox beastfolk,’ a race of demonic hybrids.

Once their identity is exposed, the temple will brand them as heretics and execute them!

If the family is doomed, would I, their daughter-in-law, remain unscathed?

My head would roll right alongside theirs...

“This is unfair! I’m not beastfolk or anything—I’m just an ordinary human!”

But running away immediately would be a crazy move.

A powerless, penniless little girl escaping alone would only end up as a beggar at best.

I need to use my knowledge of the original story to secure a fortune, siphon off money, and prepare my escape.

I know their secret, but I have no intention of betraying them—not even a little!

Even if my husband transforms into a fox and whimpers, I’ll pretend not to notice.

Even if my father-in-law mysteriously disappears at regular intervals, I’ll act as if I’m completely oblivious.

***

But then…

Are they really demonic hybrids?

“Well, we’re family, aren’t we? If this is what my dear daughter-in-law wants, of course we’ll do it.”

“Wife… Can I hold your hand while we sleep tonight?”

It’s not just blind affection—they all seem genuinely kind and innocent.

My husband’s soft, fluffy fox paws linger in my mind.

The thought of these people dying rips my heart apart...

‘This won’t do. I’ve grown too attached.’

I can’t bring myself to abandon them and run away alone.

‘…Fine. I don’t care about the original story anymore.’

Why should I care about the plot or the protagonist?

I will protect my father-in-law and my husband.

Let’s create a future where the so-called ‘heretical demon hybrids’ emerge victorious!

***

“Wouldn’t it be better to dress up a little if you want to impress my daughter-in-law? You should get rid of those glasses too.”

“Father, you’re saying that because you don’t know Railey’s tastes.”

“Her tastes?”

“I need to look as pitiful as possible… so she’ll never be able to leave me behind.”

He flashed a fierce smile—one that had nothing pitiful about it, but instead carried the aura of a predator.

It was the chilling presence of a beast—something he never revealed to his wife. <<less

Isabella Dunkeld is a notorious evil woman, hated by her family and scorned by everyone. But things take a strange turn when a powerful demon lord from the demon realm finds herself trapped in her body.... more>>

‘How did I end up in this body?’ The demon has no memory of making a contract with Isabella, yet here she is, stuck and powerless. To avoid revealing her true identity, she must act as ‘human’ as possible.

“So, how many people have I killed with these hands? Hundreds? Thousands?”

“Um… you haven’t killed anyone.”

“Not a single person, yet they call me an evil woman?”

Humans are incomprehensible to the demon.

***

To complete the contract and escape Isabella’s body, the demon must fulfill her most fervent wish: ‘Make my family regret everything.’ With an indifferent father and a lunatic brother, the demon decides to get closer to these worthless family members.

“Hey, if you talk like that, you make us sound like tr*sh.”

“You are tr*sh. Reflect on that, tr*sh.”

Is this how it’s done? <<less

On the day her father died, leaving her with a huge amount of debt, Livia realized that she had been reincarnated and was living as an extra in the novel she read before she died.... more>>

Her life was good up until then…

She was also time-limited because she had a magic disease where spots like flowers would appear all over her body until she finally succumbed and died.

The only way to cure the disease was the heirloom of the Duke of Mercedes, the villain of this world.

‘I can't do it.’

But an opportunity arose.

‘Okay, I’ll give them a reasonable amount of help, and then I will leave once we treat the disease with heirloom!’

Thus, Livia took a job under the guise of a tutor for the Duke of Mercedes.

***

She found the heirloom and cured the disease.

Once she had achieved her goal, she tried to disappear quietly, like a supporting actor….

"It's my fault. Please don't go. I can't live without you."
The little prince, who was at one time called a little devil, clung to her, begging her not to leave.

“Why am I drawn to you, when I should serve God and serve the saint? Do you know?”
The paladin who should have followed the original heroine made an oath to Livia as a knight

"Miss Livia, you are the butterfly of my destiny."
Even the master of the Imperial Intelligence Guild was trying to seduce her.

“Can you not be a tutor to the little prince? Because I´m jealous.”
The male protagonist, who should have fallen for the original heroine and given her everything, was trying to give Livia everything for some reason.

Above all…

“If you want to go, you can go wherever you want to. I’m confident I can bring you back."

Wasn’t that a threat... …?

‘What the hell is going on!’

Livia just wanted to cure her disease, but something seemed to have gone very wrong. <<less

Edith Irene Brussels had a secret… the fact that she had experienced possession.

One day, she suddenly became Edith. Not only that, but it was in a completely different era, in a strange country she had never heard of before! Moreover, with strange abilities that others couldn’t see.

To return home, Edith chose a contract marriage with the genius wizard Duke.

“Will you marry me?”
“Yes! I’d love to!”

However,

“What’s going on? Does she really think she’s becoming the Mistress of a Duchy?”
“It’s Brussels. Has anyone heard of that family?”

Nobles ostracize those from fallen families.

“That’s even better!”

Thinking positively and walking alone, she constantly encountered troubled children behind the scenes of the social circle.

〈 Stress: 130/100 [ !! Danger !! ] 〉

[ Appropriate action is needed for the precious child. ]

“Viscountess, could you please hold the child’s hand?”

Unable to just stand by, she stepped forward and became known as a ‘problem solver’ in no time.

“Duchess, I’d like to meet separately next week.”
“Me too. Would you be able to come to our mansion?”

She was ranked first in the invitation list, despite being ostracized in high society.

* * *

Barely adapting to the changed atmosphere, now her husband is acting strange.

“Do people usually like that sort of thing?”
“I guess not?”
“In that case, what I like is you.”

Oh my God, who on earth confesses like that?! <<less

Ketrisia Elphonhein, the continent's sole aura user, the trailblazer of the Golden Route, the people's savior—her name alone radiated greatness.... more>>

It was certain that she would ascend to the throne as the next Emperor of the empire. Or so it seemed, until the day of her coronation as the Crown Princess, when she crumpled, blood staining her lips.

In the blink of an eye, she had lost her aura, her grace, and with it, the empire’s hopes. Two years had passed since her fall from power, and during those years, Achilles Nemertor, the Duke known as the Master of Gold, remained an enigma—a figure lingering at the edges of her shattered world. Then, he appeared before her: broken, imprisoned, and utterly changed.

"Marry me, Princess. By now, you must realize you no longer have the luxury of refusal," he declared.

For two long years, he had watched her suffer, doing nothing to ease her pain, and now he proposed, cold and malicious in his timing. But Ketrisia had no choice but to accept.

"I’ll advance the plan in six months."

It was her only chance to survive, to reclaim the imperial palace, and to take back what was rightfully hers—to become Emperor. And Achilles, in all his cunning, would be the one to give her the wings she needed to rise again.

What she didn't know then, was the truth behind the hand he offered.

"How could I possibly hate you consistently for a thousand years? Truly… I loathe you, Princess."

But had she known, it would have changed nothing.

"Quite romantic, isn't it? To think you've loved me for a thousand years."

In the end, it was clear that the one holding the leash had always been decided from the very beginning. <<less

I was reincarnated into a shounen hunter comic—infamous for killing off both main and supporting characters without mercy.... more>>

The problem? I’m a civilian with zero combat power.

Living a normal life and bouncing from one part-time job to another, I was just trying to get by—until I got caught up in a Gate incident. By the time I came to my senses...

[Welcome, Awakener !]

[Your Unique Ability has been successfully identified!]

“…What?”

All I got after nearly dying was the same ability as the original villain of the story—

And the shocking truth was that my younger brother is the actual protagonist of this world.

With that in mind, I have only one goal:

"In this completely chaotic shounen comic, I need to keep my airheaded brother alive!"

But then…

[Your Personal Gate has been created!]

[Your exclusive beast has been summoned!]

From the fully opened Gate, hundreds of teddy bears came pouring out.

…So my power is to summon stuff like this and fight with it?

– Wait, am I the only one who thinks the teddy bears are cute?

– What is that pudding-looking thing???

↳ Shockingly, it's the new beast Kwon Asol summoned.

– Why do all the beasts Kwon Asol summons have those faces LOL

And now, my journey begins—accompanied by people whose sense of aesthetics has been completely shattered. <<less

I was reincarnated as the wife of the tyrant male lead, who was poisoned to death.... more>>

The problem was that this tyrant went completely crazy after my death and ruined the country.

We didn’t really like each other and it was a political marriage.

There are two years left.

“Let’s just live and see.”

‘If I pass the poison, I’ll get divorced and become free!’

For two years, I took antidote from time to time and developed resistance to various poison.

While I was doing it, I also took care of the male lead’s health, which was in poor condition.

Because he can’t go crazy after divorce.

“Your Majesty, you seem to sleep late every day. It’s good for your health to sleep early and wake up early.”

“Why does it matter to you?”

“Can’t you just say that you understand it just once?”

As a result, I just got a little closer to the male lead than in the original.

“Why don’t you ask me if I had breakfast these days?”

“You’re healthy now. Do I have to?”

“…….”

After safely passing the scheduled poisoning date of the original, there was no need to continue the political marriage, so I sent a divorce letter.

I thought I only had the future left to become free!

“Your Majesty? Why is there blood in your mouth! Blood!”

“…Leah. I’m sick.”

The male lead, who emptied the glass, fell down.

With a smile.

“Ah…”

Male lead. You didn’t drink poison on purpose, right? <<less

I found myself transmigrated 14 years before the original story began, as the strongest wizard in the empire.... more>>

[Please protect them.]

All I remember is this one sentence. Is this a request to ensure the ending of a novel that was suspended during serialization? It’s a romance novel, so the ending will probably be a happy one for the main characters.

Since the original story hasn’t even started yet, let’s just quietly stay in our territory.

But then I came face to face with him in the palace.

The main villain of the novel, the unhappy prince who becomes a tyrant due to his tragic childhood story. A beast-like appearance with bony and skinny body.

I’m reluctant to do this, but if I change the storyline of the character who appears, the information I know might be different.

The child has never tasted warm soup.

Feeding the child won’t be a problem, right…?

However.

“Your Highness, do you feel better now that you’re clean?”

“…”

[ab*se and neglect were a daily occurrence for the child.]

The moment I saw the child shivering quietly, as if used to being soaked in cold water in the middle of the night, I made a decision.

“Your Highness. Would you like to become my disciple?”

I’ll make sure you get your happy ending too.

Aristine, a princess confined out of the Emperor’s sight.

She, who became the sacrifice for a political marriage, was married off to a terrifying barbarian…

“The most precious things should naturally be given to my bride.”

But her husband, whose monstrosity she prepared for, was way too normal.

However, he belonged to someone else.

She might as well make the goldfields her own.

Arsene, the only heir to the wolf family known for his illness, has died.... more>>

The culprits are my father and my half-sibling.

They killed the heir by lying to use the family's healing powers.

Thanks to this, the family was destroyed, and I was caught up in it and died.

But—.

"Lady, wake up!"

When I opened my eyes, I was back at the age of seven before I died!

"Let me marry Arsene!"

I can't die under false accusations again.

I requested a contract marriage to the Wolf family without my father's knowledge.

After curing the heir's illness, I was going to divorce and leave when I turned 20.

As the wolf family and our family are hostile to each other, they might hate me, but it's better than to die motionless.

Let's hold it in until we turn 20!

That's what I thought—.

"Look at these fluffy feathers... how..."

"Lady, you look cute today too. Hoho, you seem to be getting cuter day by day."

"I guarantee you, you will be the most beautiful of all the beasts at this festival!"

Strangely, the people in the Wolf Mansion like me so much?

"You're not pretty? It looks like all the mirrors in the mansion are broken. I'll have to ask them to buy a new one."

My father-in-law even changed all the mirrors.

The servants wished to touch my feathers once.

Besides, my contract husband is weird, too.

I thought he was waiting for divorce whenever he had time—.

"Linsy, you're my wife. Where are you going to leave me?"

"Now that you're an adult, you have to fulfill your duty as a married couple."

My adult husband's eyes are strange.

Is this okay? <<less

Ding—!... more>>

[ You are invited to the game of ‘Checkmate’! ]

Eloise Eaton Rosebell was a young girl whose life had been torn apart the day her family was destroyed by accusations of treason. Alone and devastated, her world had spiraled into darkness. But just as her last shred of hope began to slip away, a transparent window appeared before her, offering something she’d never dreamed possible: the chance to relive her life.

“Wouldn’t you like to start over?” a voice asked, soft and coaxing, like fate itself whispering in her ear.

“The Gods are offering you a second chance,” the voice echoed, filled with mystery and promise.

“A second chance?” Eloise repeated, her voice trembling with fragile hope.

“Indeed,” the voice replied, rich with certainty. “As long as you’re willing to become a piece in our game.”

Without a moment’s hesitation, and with no thought for the risks, Eloise accepted the deal. If there was even a sliver of a chance to save her family, she would seize it. Time twisted, folding backward in a dizzying rush, and when it stopped, Eloise found herself twelve years old once again—six years before her family’s fall.

Six years. That was all the time she’d been given to change their fate, to halt the tragedy that awaited them when she turned eighteen. Yet she quickly realized the gods hadn’t offered her this chance out of kindness. These beings lived to toy with mortals, casting them into webs of drama and peril purely for their own amusement.

But she hadn’t expected that these so-called Constellations—the gods themselves—would be noisy, self-centered, and… absolutely infuriating. Every move she made was scrutinized and criticized, accompanied by their endless commentary. Rather than guiding her, they seemed more interested in bickering among themselves, as if she were merely a pawn trapped between their clashing egos.

|| ‘White Rabbit’ protests ‘the Queen of Hearts’ actions. ||

|| ‘The Queen of Hearts’ yanks ‘White Rabbit’s’ hair in fury. ||

As Eloise navigated the chaos caused by these selfish, unpredictable gods, she found her life in this timeline already diverging from the past. Mysterious men—strangers she had never encountered before—began appearing, drawn to her in ways she couldn’t ignore. They seemed to play essential roles in the game, and the gods watched with barely contained delight as new layers of intrigue wove themselves around her.

Now, as the ‘Queen’ of the third season of the Game of the Gods, Eloise faced trials filled with danger and secrets. Every choice, every step, could bring her closer to the truth… or hasten her ruin. Would she uncover the truth behind the betrayal that destroyed her family? Could she rewrite a destiny that had seemed set in stone? <<less
