"Aren't you going to wash the lower part?"

"I'm sorry. It's my first time."

"I suppose you intend to scrub me until tomorrow morning then."

The arrogant and beautiful Duke, Armion.

Despite his torment, Elise perseveres, thinking of her mother and the beautiful swan.

But... why does she keep thinking of the 'swan' the more she sees him?

"Y-Your Grace. S-Stop…”

I was born into the most noble status, but my end was insignificant.... more>>

No one was allowed to trample on me. I only wished to reign in a position that everyone could look up to.

But that greed ultimately took away all those I loved.

My beloved daughter and the only man I ever loved.

When my daughter met her demise, the Emperor, who had been looking for an opportunity to remove me, did not miss his chance. That's how I ended up imprisoned, waiting for the day I would disappear. My life came to a halt the moment Declan pulled the trigger towards his own head.

Mia, a native of Japan, was summoned to another world to serve as a Saint.... more>>

“—I summoned you, so be grateful and work for this kingdom.”

The prince who summoned her said in a very overbearing manner. Both he and his sister, the princess, were rude and abusive.

Refusing to obey such people, Mia disobeyed their orders.

“If that’s how you’re going to treat me, I won’t use my power as a Saint.”

“But you’re the Saint! How dare you go against my words! I’ll execute you!”

“If you execute me, the Saint, you’ll be the ones in trouble.”

To teach Mia a lesson, the princess threw a dying knight at her feet.

“Now, use your power as the Saint, or are you letting this knight die?!”

The princess, who neither reached out nor helped the injured, treated the knight as a tool to force Mia into obedience.

Mia’s anger boiled, and she used her power to launch a counterattack against the princess! <<less

Harold, the third prince of the kingdom of Dehavals, gazed at his reflection in the mirror and let out a sigh.... more>>

This situation was only natural. After all, Harold had the unfortunate fate of being the most disliked character in the ill-fated role of the antagonist’s sidekick in the romantic mobile RPG “Engage Hazard,” a game he had played in his previous life.

In this RPG, which played out like a romance novel, the ultimate objective was to “win over the most outstanding fiancée in the world.”

During the tutorial phase, Harold had abruptly broken his engagement with the Duke’s daughter, only to challenge the main character. He had spent the rest of the game competing for the affections of various heroines, but in the end, he had remained a woeful secondary character. And as for the heroine… ultimately, his fate was sealed – execution.

But not this time!

Determined to survive, Harold planned to leverage his knowledge from his past life to become stronger. Instead of repeating his mistake of canceling his engagement with the Duke’s daughter, the first one to do so, he resolved to avoid the impending disastrous ending by immediately stepping away from the fiancée rivalry at the start of the main game.

What’s more, in his previous life, this very Duke’s daughter had been the character he had wholeheartedly recommended.

Yet, little did Harold know that this Duke’s daughter was not just stronger than any heroine; she was also more possessive and obsessed than any of them. <<less

He was a husband who respected, cared for and loved me.... more>>

At least, he did until that night when I discovered how he truly felt.

"You handed the task over to that woman?' What a pointless thing to do! She can’t handle it. Don’t assign her anything.”

The woman he was referring to was me.

Whenever I wasn’t around, it seemed that he would tell others that I was incapable of doing anything.

That was when I began to consider divorce.

There was no way I could continue living with a man like that.

Not as a noblewoman, not as an adult.

I could not lie beside him in the same bed anymore.

And yet—

"Duchess, the Duke has gone missing."

That couldn't be true.

[I name my wife as my primary heir.]

He was truly a man I could never understand. <<less

To Niveia, the world seemed like an eternal winter. Her parents and maids had given her the cold shoulder ever since she was a baby. When she fell down in the snow, no one spared her a glance. It was truly a dreadful winter.... more>>

While living day to day like a doll on a display shelf, Niveia was engaged as part of a prenatal agreement between her father and her fiance’s father. Her fiance was a Wistash. Duke Valor Wistash.

As in the prelude to every tragedy, it all began with a damned love.

“Love has its moments. You missed them all, and now I don’t love you anymore.”

Niveia said to her fiance who had never once looked at her for the past decade, then left the Empire for the neighbouring country where she was welcomed with open arms.

She didn’t expect anything there and was simply planning to live quietly but the Emperor’s attitude towards her was exceedingly friendly.

“I want you to be happy. You can wish for anything and do as you please. I want to give you a season where you don’t have to be constantly wary of other people.”

After meeting Arendt, Niveia’s winter began to overflow… into spring as the snow began to melt. <<less

In order to save the lives of a woman and two children he had never seen before, he had to cut the legs of his beloved horse and pierced a sword into its throat.

"Bring the children's father. I will hold him accountable for the price of the horse's life."
"I don’t have a husband."

Blue eyes, resembling the still spring waters of the deep mountains, stared back at Balt.

"If there's anything I can do to repay you with a woman's body… I'll do it."
"Anything?"

Filled only with confusion and instinctual desire, Balt embraces Claire, a widow and a mother of three.

But that night, he realises that he is her first man.

"Why did you lie to me? Explain yourself immediately."
"Just leave me alone. Because there isn’t anything I want."
"What are you actually afraid of?"

The east wind, carrying the cold air of Atlas, blew through Genevu as spring arrived.

"Am I unable to make you the Marchioness? Or perhaps, I’ll actually make it happen?"

An icy, blue-eyed woman, whom he was unable to abandon, and unwilling to forsake. Before these two, an unfathomable and cruel fate unfolds. <<less

Except for one person, no, one skeleton.

“I am different from the other kings who want to treat you like a beast. You are not a tool, but a human being.”

His abyss-like deep voice pierced through Lia’s heart.

If I have to stay here continuously, then I…

A thunderbolt had struck just before she announced the engagement, which will finally be the pinnacle of her life.

The despair of the betrayal of her trusted fiancé would come as such a shock only lasted for a few moments.

The person who loved Tatiana the most, her mother, first turned her back on her when she insisted that she would never marry.

The time she has left is one week.

"I would be left on the street with nothing if I couldn’t find a husband in a week. But all of the groomsmen candidates who had been so desperate to me only looked at my mother’s face."

She had reunited with her first love on the battlefield where she had volunteered as a military doctor.

The man who had once been her future, the most beautiful part of her past.

But when she learned his true identity, she had left him.

She had chosen to walk away, believing that leaving him was the only way to protect him.

"Congratulations. You finally became the respectable doctor you always wanted to be."

"…"

"Since you became a doctor at the cost of selling me out, I suppose I have the right to expect some decent skills from you?"

Unlike her, who had abandoned him, he had once thought she was worth trading everything for.

Seeing her again left a bitter taste in his mouth.

Still, he endured it.

Because once the war ended, he believed they would never cross paths again.

"So what? Are you really going through with this? You and I, getting married?"

"Yes. It’s an incredible opportunity for me, too. After all, I’d be the Grand Duchess."

Asili was willing to do anything for him.

Chaoyang lived an ordinary life for over twenty years, but a sudden “awakening” disrupted his life—he awakened as a demon from legends, one that feeds on wishes.... more>>

The bad news is, wishes are hard to come by in this world. The good news is, before he starved to death, he opened a passage to another world overflowing with wishes.

The bad news is, most of these wishes are already claimed. The good news is, no one understands wishes better than him.

“Does this make sense? How can a herbivorous beastman bully a carnivorous one!”

But then the young wolf in front of me, teary-eyed, spoke.

“I’m sorry. I’ll listen to you.”

Is this really happening?

I wanted to wipe those chicken-poop-like tears away, but only the choices before me were glowing in blue.

「1. Are you a baby? Crying over something like this!

2. What are you crying for? I don’t want to see you, so stay out of my sight.

3. Be quiet, you’re noisy.」

It seems like my days are numbered.

Three months until the original male lead’s uncle comes to pick him up.

“Lady Remi, thank you for the bread and milk you sent. I enjoyed it.”

“You're thanking me for something like that? Work as much as you’ve eaten.”

Even under the control of the choices, I desperately tried to take care of the original male lead.

And finally, the original male lead’s uncle arrived.

I thought I just needed to safely send the child off, but then,

“No! I want to stay with Lady Remi!”

Why is this mature child suddenly throwing a tantrum…?

Moreover, the original male lead’s uncle couldn’t calm the child down and just smiled gracefully with those pretty golden eyes.

“The child wants it, so let’s go together.”

“Me, me?”

“I want you too.”

“Pardon?”

Why do you want me?

“Come with us, Lady Morton.”

Where to, a wolf’s den?

"She reeks of vulgarity. Why on earth did Father bring her here?"

The family’s love was reserved solely for the youngest daughter, Elisha.

Knowing this, Rosette still yearned for their affection and allowed herself to be used by them.

Used and exploited, she eventually ended up killing Duke Adrian, the greatest Sword Master.

"Why did I kill him?"

In front of her, Joshua, the crown prince of the empire, cried like a child.

Moved by his tears, Rosette gained a profound realization and turned back time.

'This time, I will never enter that family.'

Even if it meant starving to death, she would never crawl back into that hell.

Just as she made that vow—

"Would you like to come with us?"

Duke Adrian, whom she had killed with her magic, offered to adopt her.

A kind and warm father, brother, and sister.

Feeling the love of a real family for the first time, Rosette made a new vow.

'I will protect them.'

This time, no matter what it takes, I will make sure they don’t die.

She thought everything would be perfect from now on.

"I heard that a woman who suddenly looked like an East Asian was adopted into the Rubiche family, so I wondered. But to think it was you. I wasn’t crazy. I wasn’t losing my mind after all."

And then, as he said that, he started crying his eyes out. On top of that, it turns out this man was my boss back in Korea.

The Crown Prince, known as the madman of the Empire—my former boss—would call me to the imperial palace every chance he got.

“Tell me about Korea.”

“It’s been five years, so my memory’s a bit fuzzy.”

“Just tell me. For me, it’s been more than twenty years.”

That big of a time difference?

Surprised, I looked at his face— and saw him crying again. Why does he keep crying?

“I missed you so much. It was driving me mad.”

Then he buried his face in my palm and started sobbing, making things even more awkward for me.

Because we were in the middle of a meal, and the Empress and Emperor were staring at us mid-bite with expressions like they’d lost their appetites. <<less

The immortal woman who never dies, Sis Millan.... more>>

Her life was full of loneliness and solitary, as she bid her final farewell to her family members. She was left all alone.

The only thing that could make her die was the magic tool that was specially developed to call for death, the 'Music Box of the Dead'.

However, the one who took the music box that was offered at the underground auction was the Duke Alexis Begaus, a powerful and noble figure of the empire.

Sis approached the Duke with the sole intention of stealing it away from him.

"I fell in love with you!"

"It... it is a love at first sight."

It was an incredibly clumsy temptation. He smiled, while raising one corner of his mouth.

I thought my false confession has been exposed...

Alexis found her crawling around carelessly, holding onto the bed sheets.

"Where are you going?"

Sis's pupils shook as she was grabbed by her ankle and was dragged under him again.

"Uh, is it not over yet.. ... .?"

“Over?”

He caressed her buttocks affectionately as if he were her true lover. But soon his hands turned savage and he spread her thighs apart.
