…Can someone please kidnap me already?!
Iris, a girl who has spent her entire life in a monastery, is about to turn twenty when she faces the biggest crisis of her life.
She discovers that she is the hidden daughter of a noble family.
As if the revelation of her secret lineage wasn’t enough, she is also about to be forced into marriage with a bald, middle-aged man.
Meanwhile, the kind-hearted head of the monastery, who has always cared for her, comes up with a plan.
“Iris, the only thing you need to focus on is your real groom. Understand?”
The plan? To marry her off to another man.
Operation Fake ‘Kidnapping Marriage’ is set in motion.

When Iris first saw her soon to be husband, whose bald head sparkled in the light, she desperately prayed:
“I won’t ask for anything more. Please just let me be safely kidnapped!”
But when the door opened, revealing two men, she thought:
“Sorry, can I cancel that? Is it okay to ask for just one more thing?”
One of the men, with messy black hair and a frustrated look, walked in through the bell tower.
“I hope he’s my husband.”
Her reasoning was a bit bold, but…
“I think I could at least manage… the wedding night or something, if it’s him.”

“Will you leave me?”
“Iris, this is your marriage. Do you think I’ll leave just because you ask?”
His tone was very gentle, but strangely, it made her feel like she might cry.
Iris stared at him, somewhat dazed.
Under the lush greenery of early summer, sunlight shimmered beautifully.
The leaves dancing on the face of the man she had fallen in love with made beautiful patterns.
“…What about you, Rahan?”
At her words, Rahan raised an eyebrow and playfully pinched her nose.
“Who are you calling a jerk? Did you forget what we were doing earlier?”
“…”
“From the moment you kissed me, I didn’t have a choice anymore.”
