Three years after her social debut, Countess Melfiera found herself the subject of baseless rumors due to a certain hobby, making it impossible for her to secure an engagement. Her father's second wife, who had no high opinion of Melfiera, declared, "If you don't find a fiancé within a year, you'll be sent to a convent." This forced Melfiera to frantically attend the autumn banquet.

Not truly enthusiastic, she found herself isolated at the banquet, a place meant for introductions. Suddenly, she was ambushed by a demonic beast, maddened by demon poison. Her desperate predicament was resolved by a blood-soaked man with an audacious laugh. This man was, in fact, Duke Galbraith, also known as "The Mad-Blooded Duke."

Duke Galbraith grew intrigued by Melfiera, who showed no fear of him, despite his blood-soaked state, nor even of demonic beasts. Furthermore, he not only understood her unmentionable hobby—savoring demonic beasts and mutated plants—but even offered to satisfy her insatiable curiosity...?

A sudden engagement! Marriage? Could I possibly be falling for a trick?!

This is a love fantasy about the "Gluttonous Lady" who seeks ways to deliciously prepare demonic beasts for her people, and "The Mad-Blooded Duke" who continuously exterminates the demonic beasts plaguing his territory. It's the story of how these two, tossed about by malicious rumors and unable to find a proper fiancé, eventually find happiness!
