Chapter 1

Seonghwa knew it was bound to happen sooner or later.

His friends had warned him countless times to stay away, that the temptation wasn't worth it, that he would find someone else anyway. But he knew his heart longed for the other much deeper than he could express and that his friends would never understand no matter what he told them. And maybe that's why despite having a gun directly pointing at him, he wasn't scared or afraid, just sad that he couldn't kiss him one last time.

It all started a year ago when Seonghwa met him.

Kim Hongjoong.

An alpha feared and respected throughout the whole underworld. There was no one who was involved with the underworld that didn't know his name. Ruthless and cold to everyone and anyone. It was no secret about the blood that his hands had but those same hands had tenderly held him and caressed him. To him, he was someone Seonghwa could rely on. Someone he had come to love unconditionally and he had no regrets in choosing to love him.

Seonghwa was no one and that much he knew for himself. He was just an omega, the lowest of the hierarchy already and to top it off he was a singer who would occasionally perform at the alpha's club whenever he was given the opportunity. This just further pushed him to the bottom of the pyramid but even with his lousy and pathetic status, he had been able to make the alpha fall for him.

He still remembers the day he first saw him.

It was the grand opening of the bar turned club that had recently been bought. The new owner had decided to redesign the whole place to suit the newer trends, so it had been closed for the meantime until recently when he was informed that it would be opening that weekend. Upon the news, Seonghwa knew he had to immediately see it.

He walked through the huge mahogany doors amazed by the new expensive interior. Whoever the new owner was must have been loaded and chosen to go all out. The new glass chandeliers were sparkling, huge and low while the old beaten-up chairs were replaced with new leather seats, giving the club a certain class it that it never had before. Indeed the renovations had been necessary.

But what stole the singer's heart was the glamorous stage that stood in the middle of the club. Originally, there wasn't much of a stage to begin with, just a simple stage platform for him to perform on but now he couldn't take his eyes off of it. Dare he say it almost rivalled that of a theatre. "Beautiful, isn't it?" A voice said from behind him, startling him as he hadn't expected anyone to be there.

"Yeosang!" He turned to see the beta already smiling at him. "You gave me quite the fright there," He walked over to him, a happy skip in his step.

"You're still as skittish as ever, Hwa." He laughed at his friend.

"I'm not! It's just that you walk as softly as mice moving in the dead of night." He argued with a pout as he rearranged his thick cardigan around his shoulders. This only forced the beta to laugh harder.

"Oh, Hwa!" He chuckled at his friend. "So what brings you here? We weren't expecting you until 8 tonight."

"Well… I heard about the opening and got curious about the new club. I thought why not pop in and take a peek before opening night." He gave his friend a sly smile and a wink as he followed him. Yeosang walked over to the bar where he would be the rest of the night.

"That does seem like something you would do." He smiled as he bought out the glasses to clean for the grand opening. Seonghwa watched as his younger friend performed his duties as if it were second nature to him. "Are you sure there's nothing you want?" He asked again.

"Yes, I am sure." Hwa grinned back. "Pay me no mind. I'll just check if everything's alright then I'll be out of here." He quickly said and walked over to the stage. Amazed by the sheer size of it as it gleamed thanks to the bright stage lights cast on it. In a few hours, he would be the one up here, performing to his heart's content again.
