I possessed the body of my favorite character’s ex-wife—the one who dies young—in my favorite novel. “Honestly, I didn’t have any lingering attachments to my past life anyway. Since it’s come to this, I might as well fully enjoy stanning my favorite!” That’s what I thought, but an awakening of powers that didn’t exist in the original story let me survive. On top of that, I somehow ended up completely winning over my in-laws in the meantime…… “You’re the only one who’d risk your life for Akid videos more than for the commission.” My good-for-nothing, personality-disaster No. 1 father-in-law even helps with my fangirling. “Then you shouldn’t have been born so cute. There are plenty of vicious criminals in this world who target adorable kids like you.” My personality-disaster No. 2 mother-in-law—once known as the ‘Mad Dog of Haint’—doesn’t treat me coldly at all; instead, she’s excessively overprotective. And my husband, who used to be nothing but innocent, starts tempting me at every turn…… “Rone, your hair is just like cotton candy.” “My hair is a bit frizzy, isn’t it?” “Not at all. I meant it’s so soft and fluffy that I want to keep touching it.” All this time, I thought my very existence was dangerous to him. But then…… “Rone, do you have a sense now of who’s actually more dangerous?” Could it be that my Akid—whom I thought was simply naive—was actually a natural-born flirt?!
