1st Kiss Was Intentional
When she came back to life, she became an extra in a novel. Living in the cruel emperor’s palace as a villainess concubine, her throat was cut because she tormented the heroine! What should I do at this moment? Get close to the heroine? No. Get close to the male lead? No, not that either. Survive to have long and fine life? Damn right,…- 1.7 K • Dec 7, '24

1KWI Ch 8
What’s going on here? I nervously glanced back and forth between Caroline and the man. As the man passed by, Caroline, now behind him, saw my startled face and laughed softly. Then, in a voice full of mockery, she pretended to be merciful. “If we drag this out, it’ll be hard on both you and me. Let’s make it quick and easy.” As the man stopped right in front of me, Caroline’s words echoed in my ears, and suddenly, something clicked in my mind. What could cause a…-

1KWI Ch 7
It was only then that I noticed something was off, so I cautiously looked at the Emperor. To my surprise, instead of the anger I expected—something like “Bring the guillotine immediately!”—he was sitting on his golden throne, maintaining his dignified posture as if nothing had happened. The suffocating silence that had filled the room was gone, and I could hear disappointed murmurs rising from below. “Well, I guess it wasn’t anything serious. I was startled for a moment, thinking that…-

1KWI Ch 6
"I have come at His Majesty’s call. As His thirty-first concubine, I will serve sincerely, so that the name of Periland will not be shamed." Oh, she’s amazing! Though Yurisina was brought here as a prisoner, she showed no sign of intimidation. Her kingdom may have been defeated and absorbed into the empire, but she carried herself with pride, unashamed of her name. I couldn’t help but admire her. Maybe I should get her autograph before she becomes Empress! Surely the Emperor must have…-

1KWI Ch 5
"May I introduce... Lady Odette?" The servant at the door, who had been preparing to greet the Emperor, recognized me and looked startled. Breathless, I made a frantic gesture, and he noticed the urgency as the fanfare grew louder behind me. Quick, quick! He seemed to understand the situation and quickly opened the door, helping me slip into the ballroom. The grand doors swung open, and I dashed in, with no time to fix my disheveled hair or dress. The ballroom spread out in front of me,…-

1KWI Ch 4
It felt like he lightly grabbed my wrist, but suddenly, my entire arm was lifted. I looked up at him, wide-eyed, as he held my wrist. His eyes, red like the sun, stared intently at me, somehow murkier than before. Even his perfectly sculpted face looked tense, lacking even a trace of a smile. Though I hadn’t fully processed the situation yet, it was already unsettling enough, but the real issue was something else entirely. “What, what, what are you doing?!” He—a mere servant who kept…-

1KWI Ch 3
“Lady Odette, we’ve arrived.” The palace coachman announced with a polite but firm tone as he opened the door. Swallowing nervously, I took his arm with a stiff expression as I stepped out. Now that I’m here, all I can do is be extra cautious. I’ll avoid any men, steer clear of Yurisina, and stick to the shadows until the ball ends so I can slip away! From the brightly lit ballroom, elegant music filled the air. Standing at the end of the long hallway, I…-

1KWI Ch 2
And so three years passed. All this time, I’ve lived quietly in the palace, almost as if I were in hiding, meeting only the occasional servant and no one else. "Hm?" That day too, I’d been gathering flowers I'd grown to brighten my mood when I spotted a stranger near the Lily Palace. Just as I froze in my tracks, the silver-haired man turned at the sound of my voice, and we made eye contact. His clear, red eyes looked like red wine, almost like the sun. "Who are you? Oh, did you bring…-
