When a girl abused by her father wakes up in a novel as Luella Masimelle, the cruel stepmother of the protagonist Hirah, she is determined to make things different. To do this, she proposes a contractual marriage to Duke Huppert to make him Hirah's guardian, but the duke surprisingly seems genuinely interested in her. And with the once timid Hirah also starting to open up and show affection to her, Luella begins to wonder if she'll finally have a happy family... Or is it all too good to be true?
