Wrong Script, Right Love Novel

Renji Takeda wakes from a drunken death to find himself reincarnated as Leif Thorenvald, the second male lead in a romance novel—not the villainess or omega he might have expected. In this story, the heroine possesses divine powers, the villainess schemes in silk, and the Grand Duke is destined to claim the girl's heart. Renji, however, is meant to be rejected. There's one problem: he's gay. Uninterested in chasing a woman, Renji abandons the author's script and escapes to the frozen North for peace. His solitude shatters when Grand Duke Alvar Ragnulfsson arrives. The supposedly heterosexual male lead displays lingering stares, deliberate touches, and an interest far beyond friendship. The overlooked second lead suddenly finds himself at the center of a completely different narrative. Caught between political intrigue, divine magic, and an increasingly attentive Grand Duke, Renji must determine whether he's rewriting his own story—or if the script is rewriting him.
