Why, why is it always the black-haired guy who ends up as the male lead in romance fantasy novels? And why, why do I always fall for the brown-haired one?
Sub-male lead of Marriage Alliance: Baileon Biers. Childhood friend of the female lead, Princess Odette, and currently the Empire’s Chancellor. Naturally, he caught the eye of Reader No.1, who always falls for the brown-haired second lead.
How can a scholarly Chancellor possibly win against a cold-blooded, black-haired Northern Duke?! Every night, Reader No.1 cried out in despair— Only to suddenly find herself possessing the body of Marienne Didier, the Chancellor’s third aide in Marriage Alliance.
Fine then! I’ll make my fave get his happy ending with my own hands! I’ll make Baileon the true male lead of Marriage Alliance!
"Ever thought about dyeing your hair? What do you think—black?"
"Why, all of a sudden, should I dye my hair black?"
"Because it’s the only way to end your long one-sided love, Sir Biers."
If hair color’s the problem, just dye it! If he lacks charisma, then we’ll practice! Operation: Act Like a Northern Bastard is a go. But.
"Walking away without looking back, speaking coldly while standing close... What even is this?"
"This is what will work on Her Highness the Fourth Princess."
"You’re saying Her Highness actually likes this kind of behavior?"
"Absolutely."
"This just makes me look like an overly aggressive jerk."
Though skeptical, Baileon goes along with Didier’s plan. But Odette remains unmoved, Baileon forces a bitter smile—And then the damn Northern Duke shows up. She may look like a soft cotton-candy bunny on the outside, But inside, Marienne Didier is a beast, dead-set on getting her favorite character his love story. Will she succeed?
