Knowing the concubine was executed by the emperor for upsetting the heroine, the new "Lydia" holes up in her palace to avoid the couple. But after she meets Mar, a mysterious man who claims to be the emperor's runaway servant, Lydia is suddenly invited to the ball, threatened by a jealous concubine, and even bumps into the heroine! Though she has no idea what caused this domino effect, the catalyst is closer to her than she thinks...

When she came back to life, she became an extra in a novel. Living in the palace of the cruel emperor’s 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? All of it!
 
Three years have passed since she lived peacefully as an outsider of the Imperial City. As long as the novel ends with a happy ending, she thought she could be free.
 
“Who are you…”
 
“All this time…”
 
…What?
 
“I’ll listen to you.”
 
“Huh?”
 
“I’ll listen to whatever you say. Can we live together then?”
 
The servant who came into my easy life.
 
I live a happy life with him. Sometimes he’s a kind servant, and other times, a dear friend…The problem is, I can’t seem to take my eyes off him when he smiles saucily and flirtatiously with those red eyes.
 
…Is it because of my feelings?
