IRMP 13

 I was reincarnated as the villainess who casts a curse to get the male lead. And not just any curse — the dreaded “Doll’s Curse” that turns people into tiny dolls.
And of course, being the villainess… the cold northern duke, the male lead Rishid Eppenterion, kills me. And in a terribly gruesome way.
“No!”
Not only is it unfair that I was reincarnated as the villainess, but I’m supposed to die like this too? From now on my only goal is survival. If that’s the case, I’ll just have to kidnap the male lead and treat him well!

In a panic I shove him into my pocket the moment I find him.
“Airel Blandiche, do you finally wish to die for the crime of insulting the royal family?”
The shrunken duke looks up at me and levels a toothpick-like sword. But this man keeps bringing me handmade gifts for some reason.
“The princess is helping me, so I’m simply giving an appropriate reward.”
No — that’s not it. It isn’t. This is bad. I only kidnapped him to survive…
“Don’t misunderstand — just because I give you things doesn’t mean I have the same feelings as you.”
Rishid’s ear grows red as he avoids my gaze. Apparently the male lead has completely misread my intentions.
