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

One day, after the original story had ended, the female protagonist killed the male protagonist—and then I died too.... more>>

***

I became Raylin, a supporting character in a villainess possession novel.

The female protagonist’s best friend, relationship counselor, emotional dumping ground, and walking wallet.

I faithfully played my assigned role according to the original story.

"Raylin, I can never forgive you."

mu*dered by the female protagonist, who had been driven mad by her delusions, I miraculously returned to the past.

Determined to destroy the original story, I resolved to fight back and sought a powerful ally to stand against her.

"You were the one who made the first move—now take responsibility."

But unexpectedly, I found myself deeply entangled with the story’s villain, the crown prince, Aiger… <<less

There’s a saying about people who break their nose even when falling backwards – that person would be Riina, the one with terribly bad luck.... more>>

Living a life plagued by misfortune and failure, Riina’s final fate is execution.

Her bad luck persists until the very end.

Then, she regresses one year into the past.

Having such awful luck that she doesn’t even try to change the future after regressing, Riina resigns herself to everything.

As she heads to the temple to break off her engagement, she encounters Einar, a man so lucky that everything is boring and tedious to him…

* * *

Einar approached Riina.

The two faced each other without backing down, close enough to feel each other’s breath.

“My lady, shall we make a bet?”

“A bet?”

“Whether your luck will prevail or mine.”

Einar smiled fiercely, baring his teeth.

“If you’re not dead in a year’s time, I win.”

Riina who breaks her nose even falling backwards vs Einar who walks on flower petals just by breathing.

Who will win the bet?

“It’s because I’m a s*ave.”... more>>

So said the man who killed her as he smirked.

After her fourth return, entering her fifth life, she made up her mind. She needed to stop the one responsible for starting the Continental War, and survive!

“What is required?”

“Let go.”

“Tell me what you want! No, what you need! Whatever it takes, I won’t allow you to start a war!”

The moment she grabbed that man’s pant leg and looked up him, looking back at her were his eyes, as deep as an abyss.

“Once you say something, you have to take responsibility for it, Princess.”

Will she be able to protect the peace of the world from this man and survive safely? <<less

By the time we got used to each other and knew what the other meant just by looking at each other’s eyes, I realized that I was inside a novel.... more>>

“I-is it a dream?”

“It’s not a dream.”

Unexpectedly, while looking for a way out, I started living together with the villain on a marriage contract.

“I love you.”

The male lead, the crown prince who hated everything and everyone, confessed to me.

“I don’t want to go back.”

Ludwig’s blue eyes, which used to be as dry as a desert, wavered like the blue sea.

***

I want to catch you.

I want you to stay with me. Don’t go.

“Ashily.”

Ludwig’s sincerity finally grabbed Ashily’s heart. <<less

Going back in time so often you could no longer count it.... more>>

In an attempt to stop her next return, she decided to kidnap her master, the Crown Prince.

Because when Crown Prince Richard dies,

Ophelia will always return to the point of his death.

'No matter how many times it takes, he must survive!'

“I’ll return! Until Your Highness is not dead!”

“I know.”

“…Yes?”

“I am also going back in time like you.”

'Hey… you too?'

'Well, me too.'

Surprisingly, Richard was also repeatedly going back in time… except he didn’t seem to have much will to live.

“Why are you staying still!”

“I’m tired.”

What’s this damn prince talking about?!

'I don’t want to die!'

Ophelia grabbed Richard’s hand.

“It’ll be better if we’re on the same boat. Let’s end this bloody regression together.”

How will Ophelia, who wants to somehow survive, get out of this time loop with Richard? <<less
