‘I only have 1 year left.’

To survive, I must win over the villains in my dreams.

‘If I raise them without distorting them, they won’t become villains in the first place.’

Moreover, if I raise the children well, I could live well as Aileen.

‘Then I’ll meet a handsome man and live well.’

There are many handsome men in this world, so I could surely catch one.

Soon, a happy future unfolded in my mind.

Safely becoming adults, the children. A tender lover who looks only at me, and a warm home were bonuses.

A life where everyone is happy. That was my goal.

I, with determination, reached out to the children.

“Will you give me a chance to be forgiven?”

The children looked at my face but did not come to me.

I picked up a chocolate jar and thought of a ploy.

“I want to give you a present as an apology.”

“……A present?”

“Yes. Please wait a moment!”

I searched the kitchen and found some bread.

The fire was just in the hearth. I placed six slices of bread on the pan.

The smell of toasted bread filled the kitchen.

‘I can’t end it here.’

Toasted bread was tasty, but I planned to add a special ingredient.

It was chocolate.

I poured chocolate onto a plate.

Evan’s face stiffened at the shiny black beans.

“It’s poison.”

……Certainly, the black color wasn’t pretty.

Moreover, chocolate did not exist in this world.

“It’s not poison, it’s chocolate. Although it looks like this, it melts sweetly and smoothly in your mouth, with a slightly bitter taste…….”

“…….”

Evan’s expression did not ease.

‘Indeed, experiencing it directly is the fastest way.’

To alleviate doubt, I put chocolate in my mouth.

“Mm, sweet.”

Perhaps because I was low on sugar, the chocolate clung to my mouth.

The melting sweetness and the uncloying bitterness were truly heavenly.

‘Nothing beats chocolate for a sugar boost.’

As I twisted and turned my body as if I didn’t know what to do, the twins’ eyes all shook at once.

They seemed to imagine something very tasty, though they didn’t know exactly what it was.

“Just sit down, it’ll be ready soon.”
Three slices of bread were smothered with chocolate, and all that was needed was to cover them with other slices and wait for them to melt.

Soon after, the savory smell vibrated with the sweet scent of chocolate.

I placed the completed toast on a plate and put one in front of both Louis and Evan.

“Today’s lunch is chocolate toast.”

Nothing beat carbohydrates and sugar on such exhausting days.

Everyone was hungry.

The twins and I simultaneously bit into the chocolate toast.

“…… Heong, it’s so, so sweet.”

Crisp and soft bread with melted chocolate.

Wasn’t it sufficient to soothe a hungry and tired heart?

The already beautiful Louis melted smoothly, wrapping her cheeks.

Evan and I were the same.

Our cheeks turned rosy as our eyes met.

“…….”

“…….”

The first to avert his eyes was Evan.

I smiled brightly and greeted the children.

“I’m counting on you, Princes.”

Ruben Duchy.

In a brightly lit office, he was there.

Kashar Vladis La Rihart.

A tragic scion with beautiful blonde hair and red eyes.

Having been discarded by the royal family, the man who returned as a duke was emotionlessly cutting meat.

Swish.

Soon, a tenderly sliced piece of meat entered his mouth.

Chewing it, the man frowned.

“Does it not suit your taste?”

His attendant addressed him.

But the man merely shook his head.

“It doesn’t taste like anything now.”

Leaving just that statement, the man continued his meal.

It was a meal after two whole months.

A grown royal did not need to eat for a long time without any harm to their life.

However, food was another joy, so no one deliberately skipped meals.

‘That’s a story from when the taste buds were alive.’

Though the plate was empty, the man’s expression was not satisfied.

Putting down the tableware, he pressed his forehead.

The terrible headache that had long tormented him was starting again.

“Bring it to me.”

“But…… understood.”

The hesitant attendant brought a red fruit.

The man tossed the fruit into his mouth.

In fact, the fruit only induced more headaches.

The severe headache even took away his sense of taste.

Yet the reason the man swallowed the fruit was because of his incurable disease.

‘Madness.’

The disease that dethroned the former crown prince.

The man kept his sanity by eating the poisonous fruit.

“One month left.”

The man looked out the window.

Kashar’s mother and the former empress, Bibiana’s time was a month away.

Former Empress Bibiana died in exile in a tower.

Her crime was being possessed by a demon.

And having given birth to a mentally ill crown prince.

Bibiana didn’t even have a national funeral, and the task of honoring her was left solely to Kashar.

“Shall we prepare?”

“No, I’ll go alone.”

The tower where she died was in the most remote part of the palace.

Many people were not needed in the mere place where he left the flowers she loved.

“Your will be done.”

The attendant withdrew.

The man glanced at the remaining food.

‘There’s no smell.’

He could well sense smells like blood or the stench of metal, but it had been a long time since he felt fragrant and delicious smells.

‘It will get worse.’

The poison he ate took away his senses.

Though it ended in vomiting blood and death, it was a better ending than dying mad.

The man swept his mouth with his tongue.

The remaining sauce tasted hollow.

When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did

“How dare you!”

“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?

“I will never accept that.”

“I will never let you return to him.”

“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”

“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”

“I will never let you escape me!”

This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!

At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.

Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.

The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.

Synopsis:

Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?

Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?

Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?

The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.

The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.

Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
