I don't know the original story, but it seems I've possessed the fake bride in a romantic comedy.... more>>

In case I was caught being a fake bride in the future, I’ve already come up with a solid plan to win over the male lead and everyone around him.

“This marriage is just a business deal.”

Sigh, so typical.

You’ll end up as my doormat anyway, so what’s with the attitude?

All I did was go around spreading endless positive energy and a sunny smile, like a proper romantic comedy heroine should be…

So why does the male lead keep looking like he's being tormented?

“I don't like you.”

I just brushed off his coldness and thought of it as the usual denial phase before he falls for me.

He gave me a look of resignation, as if he was looking at a wall that I couldn’t get over—but his ears were bright red.

Even though he said no with his mouth, his body was honest.

“…It’s not like I can lock you up, can I?”

It seems like he’s starting to fall for me...

But why does his obsession feel like something out of a dark angst novel?

I had no idea the original story was actually an ‘emotionally destructive’ genre known for being dangerously toxic.

Ah—whatever! I say it’s a rom-com! A healing romantic story!

I was driven out of my family for failing to awaken spirit abilities. ... more>>

While living in the underworld as an exile, I found a boy abandoned in the woods.

I was alright with naming the amnesiac child ‘Edell’ and becoming his temporary guardian, but…

“Well, I guess I have no choice but to kill you. You’ve seen my face, after all.”

It turns out, the child I found was the evil villain who had been executed by the protagonists of the original work two years ago!

I don’t know why he took on the appearance of a child, but—

“Sister Ciella, don’t abandon me.”

At the sight of Edell’s teary eyes and pitiful expression, I couldn’t bring myself to send him away or abandon him.

He’s still a child. If I teach and discipline him well before he regains his memory, he’ll become a good kid, right?

* * *

A man with hair as black as the night sky and eyes as mysterious as amethysts wore a rueful expression.

“Sister Ciella, I told you we’d get married when I grow up.”

Ah, I shouldn’t call you Sister anymore, right? What should I call you from now on?

He took my hand and pressed it against his cheek, a captivating smile appearing within his eyes.

“Darling.”

Both ecstasy and madness were contained within those gently curved purple eyes.

“If you run away again, I’ll kill you.”

At this rate, I’m about to be devoured by the villain I raised. <<less

In the dark world of an R-rated, depraved romantic fantasy.... more>>

I tried to flee the revolution and seek asylum, only to be betrayed by my fiancé who cheated on me with my cousin, landing in the worst prison.

“Newbie, aren’t you going to say hello?”

I ended up sharing a cell with two villainous male leads, of all places. How badly did they neglect human rights, to disregard gender separation in cells?

“Seems like you won’t last long anyway. Should I make it easy and end you now?”

They were unbearable lunatics. Please, just change my cell!

***

I was the weakest in the prison, frail and not yet awakened.

Human rights are a joke, 12 hours of forced labor, terrible meals, and the target of bullying by other prisoners… Add to that brutal survival games and death matches under the guise of training.

I merely used the male leads to survive, and now they cling annoyingly.

“Don’t touch other guys. Unless you want to die too.”

The foul-mouthed lunatic, Prisoner No. 1.

“I bet you look pretty when you cry.”

The deceptively innocent lunatic, Prisoner No. 2.

“Don’t forget that I own your body.”

A demon claiming I’m his only believer.

“I’ll treat you well, just like you want. Insanely well.”

A god whose kindness seems utterly mad.

Obsession… What’s That? I Just Wish Someone Would Help Me Escape.

I became the manager of a mansion where no one came to work because of the vicious rumors.
Having no talent for housework, I was haunted by a mysophobic ghost and posted a housekeeper job notice in the newspaper.
And I hired the only handsome man who came to me without asking or questioning…... more>>

“Thank you for hiring me. Here’s my resume.”

「Name – Dante van Dyke
*Major Career
Former) Commander of the Magic Special Forces
*Joining Aspirations and Future Plans
Planning to clean up the corrupt empire.」

Gasp, what is this!
He was the villain male lead who would later destroy the empire.
Why do you prepare that while doing other people’s housework. I put on a very harmless smile.

“Unfortunately, you have not passed due to your document…”
“Do you not like me?”

I was overwhelmed and frightened by the eerie eyes that sank lower and lower.

“I-it was actually a pressure interview. Pass.”
“What shall I do first, landlady? I’m good at housework, but I’m also good at other things.”

The man who suddenly changed into a friendly person gently showed a charming eye smile.

“I’d be happy to work the night as well.”
“What did you say?”
“I mean working overtime.”

He was very much desperate.
Even that’s not enough—the sword master, the devil, and the mage tower lord came together…

“I came here after seeing job postings for a cook, gardener, and butler. Let me do anything, Master.”

Ah, don’t plot treason in my house! <<less
