When Shaye opens her eyes in the Schubeiden Archduchy, she knows she must run. Reincarnated as the fourth villainess from a novel she never even finished, Shaye has no intention of staying with the male lead, Archduke Lacius de Schubeiden, and meeting her doom. However, Lacius saves her from slave traders, and as he is a rare art magician who brings drawings to life, Shaye reconsiders her position as she needs enough money to disappear.

Cursed with an allure that drives women to obsession, Lacius immediately finds Shaye's indifference refreshing—and potentially useful. He proposes a three-year fake marriage, during which Shaye will deter his relentless admirers. Enticed by the offered money, Shaye agrees to play the perfect villainess, protecting him from the three other far more dangerous villainesses—at least until the heroine finally arrives.
