In the dark underworld, Seventeen reigns supreme as a ruthless mafia gang of thirteen members, feared by all. Yuri, an innocent soul, endures a life of abuse at the hands of her foster parents. What twists of fate will unfold when Seventeen and Yuri...
I woke up with a pounding headache, a dull ache that had been my unwelcome companion for the past few days. After freshening up, I made my way to the dining area, where I found Mingyu, DK, and Joshua already seated.
"Good morning, Yuri," mingyu and dk greeted in unison.
"Hey, Yuri," Joshua added with a warm smile.
I greeted them back, managing a small smile despite the pain. Mingyu looked at me with concern. "You look tired," he said.
"Yeah, just a bit of a headache," I admitted, rubbing my temples.
Joshua frowned. "Again? That's been happening a lot lately."
DK's curiosity was piqued. "Again? What do you mean?" he asked, glancing between Joshua and me.
Joshua explained, "She's been having headaches for the past couple of days."
I nodded, feeling a bit self-conscious about the attention. "It's nothing, really."
Joshua shook his head. "I'll get you some medicine."
I smiled at his thoughtfulness. "Thanks, Joshua. I appreciate it."
I asked them where the others were, and they exchanged knowing looks before Mingyu spoke up.
"Oh, them," Mingyu began. "Seungkwan, Dino, and Vernon are out for some work. Jeonghan, Scoups, and Woozi are at the company."
"Jun and The8 must be hanging out somewhere," DK added with a grin.
"Hoshi and Wonwoo are probably together somewhere, too," Joshua finished.
I made an "O" shape with my mouth in understanding. After breakfast, I decided to explore the third floor. I hadn't seen it yet, and curiosity got the better of me.
A few days back, Seungkwan had given me a tour of the first floor, where everyone's roomswere located. He also showed me the second floor, which had a gym, a large lounging area, a bar room, a movie room, an indoor swimming area, and a gaming room.
Today, the third floor was my destination. As I opened a large door and walked inside, I was greeted by a sight that felt like a dream come true. Shelves upon shelves of books stretched out before me, creating a paradise for a book lover like me. It was a Library.

I was so mesmerized by the sight that I didn't notice someone else's presence. Suddenly, a voice whispered in my ear, "You like it?" The unexpected closeness sent shivers down my spine. I turned around quickly and stumbled, but strong arms caught me, pulling me closer. My eyes met his, and for a moment, we were both lost in each other's gaze.
He had never really talked to me much, and I wondered why. Maybe he didn't like my presence here? But wasn't he the one because of who i am here He gently tucked a stray hair strand behind my ear, his touch sending a warm sensation through me. Then, just as quickly, he let go, bringing me back to reality.
