I'll Marry Him!

Born as the illegitimate daughter of Duke McKellion, Lilian has spent her life marginalized by both her father and high society. When an unexpected opportunity arises to substitute for her sister in an arranged marriage with Emperor Kael Lu Kaldorf, she seizes it without hesitation, eager to secure a place of her own. However, her new husband is a notoriously tyrannical ruler burdened by a severe affliction. Cursed by a vengeful witch, the emperor has been entirely deprived of sleep, leaving him volatile and dangerously irritable. Fortunately, Lilian harbors a unique gift: she can induce restful slumber through a single kiss. Bound by a straightforward contractual arrangement, she assumes the nightly duty of soothing the emperor’s exhaustion to keep his dangerous temper under control. For Lilian, this pragmatic agreement is purely transactional, and she has absolutely no intention of letting genuine affection complicate matters. Yet, as their intimate routine continues, the dynamic shifts in ways neither anticipated. When the formidable Kael unexpectedly begins to develop deep romantic feelings for his practical bride, Lilian must navigate a shifting landscape where a simple contract threatens to transform into something far more profound.
