While everyone else possesses a villainess or an extra, I reincarnated as the heroine.... more>>

I thought I would be the ultimate winner, achieving wealth and happiness.

But what lay ahead of me was a miserable life! A family obsessed with money!

I endured it all, thinking I'd finally see my happy ending… until—

"I want a divorce, Leticia."

The male lead I trusted brought in his mistress.

...This bastard?

▪︎ ▪︎ ▪︎

Falling victim to the mistress's schemes, I was expelled from the ducal household, abandoned by my family, and met my end in the cold, starving and alone.

And then, miraculously, I regressed to my second life.

'What… is this?'

Suddenly, the more expensive and valuable something was, the more it sparkled before my eyes.

Fine, I'll use this ability to make that male lead end up on the streets in his underwear!

...or so I planned.

"So, what is it that our duchess is proposing?"

The original villain. An illegitimate prince born in the slums. That man, flashing a sly smile, radiated an unfamiliar brilliance.

'So, you're saying that man could benefit me?'

Sigh, if that's the case, I have no choice.

"I'm planning to become the richest person in the empire from now on."

"....."

"Would you like to be my lover?"

And so, to exact my revenge, I proposed a contract romance to the original villain. <<less

One day, while living a new life after reincarnation.... more>>

I realized that this world was a setting from a dark romance fantasy novel.

And I was fated to be killed by the obsessive Northern Duke!

I tried to avoid his tastes by turning into a socialite celebrity with a loud presence in the noble circles, but…

“You’re the first woman who hasn’t feared me.”

My head is spinning because he actually likes that.

The only option left is to get married first!

“Is there really not a single man who could compete with the Northern Duke but who’s also low-key and kind…?”

There was. The famously unattractive Southern Duke of the social circles!

● ● ●

How is it even possible that the Southern Duke is actually handsome?!

I thought I’d finally escape the Northern Duke, and now this.

“You scammer! How can you even call yourself human?”

“Well, if I’m not human, should I become a monster?”

Short? No. Overweight? No. Timid? No. Ugly? Absolutely not!

This man doesn’t match any of the rumors!

What is going on?!

Not only does he offer a dangerously tempting contract marriage, but he’s also breaking down all the defenses I’ve put up.

“We’re married, so we should share the same room and bed, Eileen. I'm just saying I won’t touch you.”

He says that while lying down next to me, showing off his rock-hard abs.

Is this marriage really going to be okay…? <<less

"I understand that saying this so suddenly might surprise you."... more>>

...What is he trying to say?

"I have fallen for your soul."

...What?

The one who should be standing in front of me is the deranged male lead from a dark, captivity-themed story.

But who is this man, kneeling politely and smiling shyly?

***

When I reincarnated, I found out that my sister was the protagonist destined to be imprisoned.

My poor sister...!

"There's no other way! If it's come to this, I'll take my sister's place."

I confidently tried to change the original plot, but...?

"I know a ring that would suit this finger perfectly. May I give it to you?"

"I refuse."

A flirty, obsessive man is wagging his tail like a sly fox.

And on top of that...

"Duke, do you enjoy imprisoning people?"

He brazenly(?) declares his intent to lock me up.

Wait a moment. I didn’t mean I’d take my sister’s place in being imprisoned too!

I don’t want to get involved with you. Absolutely not!

"Then... maybe..."

"..."

But then...

"Loving me might be a better option, Duke."

For some reason, I don’t hate it... Why is that?! <<less

Calliope Verdi’s life was perfect.... more>>

At least, that was the case until her grandfather set a ridiculous condition that she had to fulfill in order to inherit the family title.

‘If I don’t get married within a year, I will lose my position?!’

[Requirements for a husband: outstanding abilities, skilled in both arts and combat, sturdy physique, handsome enough to be considered a national treasure]
Why were the conditions so detailed?

But to make matters worse, the person who was arranged to be in this marriage that seemingly fulfilled the requirements-

“It’s good to see you again.”

The madman of the royal family. The handsome troublemaker, the 7th prince.

On the day of the graduation ceremony, he had stepped on her.

All while smiling, his golden eyes squinting slightly.

Damn it.

Since it turned out like this,

Let’s become the couple of the century. <<less

I was South Korea's top assassin, but I was betrayed by the only person I trusted and died. In my next life, I hoped to trust no one and live a life unrelated to assassination.... more>>

"Wa?!"

Suddenly, I was reincarnated as a baby princess in the Joseon era?!

"Turn her over quickly!"
"Babies often die just from being laid on their stomachs. We don't even need to intervene."

And right from birth, I faced assassination threats as the "abandoned princess"!

"I don't want to be assassinated again this time!"

I must somehow gain strength and survive in the palace! I only tried desperately to stay alive.

"Seeing how clever you've grown, I believe you could become a great..."
"?"
"...general."

Even the merciless king, who killed his siblings to ascend the throne, thought so.

"Is it true that all you want is to live like a decent human being, not gold bars or power?"

My eldest brother, who is rigid and only recites Confucian teachings.

"Choose. Who do you prefer, me or our elder brother?"

My second brother, a psycho who played with me like a toy. All of them...

"Live. I will surely show you the world you dream of."
"Even if I can't continue writing?"
"It's fine."
"Even if I remain an unnamed abandoned royal?"
"Yes."

They all wish for me to live well. As if they were my real family.

'I decided never to trust anyone again.'

...My heart keeps fluttering.

But soon, I realized.
This place is actually the world of a novel I read in my previous life.

"Huh? I die when I turn ten?"

I am destined to die soon as an extra!
Can I survive in this bloodthirsty palace? <<less

I just missed a click, but I became the princess in the game!... more>>

[ Modify the user title to ‘debtor.’ ]

Even if I can’t pay off the 100 million gem debt, I can’t log out.

I have to be clever to survive in a system and even shed blood and tears!

“Are you not afraid of me?”

Huh, should I be scared?

When I was asked like that abruptly, I covered my eyes with both hands and bowed my head.

“I’m scared.”

“…I guess you’re not scared at all.”

Hmm, actually I…

I rolled my big eyes between my fingers and looked at the status window.

There was a single sentence that bothered me a lot, even before.

It was a sentence that is briefly hidden by the First Prince’s brilliant visage…

[ Current status: Gastralgia (100%) ] <<less

She tried to save her husband, the emperor, by turning her back on her father, Duke Lauchen, who dreamed of rebellion.... more>>

The result is a failure, and Izaya faces a terrible death.

She thought it was all over, but when she opened her eyes again, it was around the coming-of-age ceremony 10 years ago.

To protect him, she has to stay away from him.

'I have to step up and prepare to divorce.

So first of all ... let's use a separate room first!'

However, there was a problem that she couldn't ignore

"Don't go, I think without you...."

That is that her husband can't sleep without Izaya.

'I have to find a way somehow.'

***

"I'm unable to sleep without you, and you're leaving me? You can't."

Ern's gesture of wrapping her wrist was very polite and persistent.

"You made me like this, so you have to take responsibility, Empress."

His voice was friendly and sweet, but his gaze on Izaya was colored with a dark obsession. <<less
