Villains Are Destined to Die (novel), Vol. 3 — Gwon Gyeoeul

With the love interests’ affection meters now sealed behind ominous locks, Penelope is on high alert for any and every opportunity to maintain her grasp of control over her escape plans. So when Winter reaches out on guild duties, hoping to sign a contract with her, Penelope swoops at the chance. The problem? One of his conditions for their deal is meeting up and getting to know each other! But these “dates” have so much more in store for Penelope than she could have predicted—missing children, evil deities, run—ins with Callisto... The stakes are higher than ever, and if Penelope isn’t careful, death will find her before she can find a way out of this game.
