Unlike most office workers that were making their departure from their cubicles or just about wrapped up with work, Kim Dan found himself still locked away in his own office.

And thoughts.

In front of him, sitting on his desk was the folder Jaekyung had given to him hours ago.

The B.L.A.C.K Project.

To the average person, it looked like basic plans for a company to expand. Globalization.

To a figure of authority, or better yet, anyone with a high enough position in the crime underworld could easily see that these plans were nothing more than an aggressive, territorial expansion that had quite literally less than 5% chance to fail.

It kept officials unaware, and posed a major threat to any up and coming individuals who thought they would garner an advantage over the competition by looking to other corners of the globe.

And it was just Kim Dan's luck that half of this plan was riding on his success to get everything into order.

"I get that he wants to start as soon as possible, but this is..." Dan whispered under his breath, trying to figure out Jaekyung's edge.

In any case, Dan was just a bit relieved that Heesung was to come back to the office in the next two days or so.

Suddenly, a knock sounded loudly on his office door, leaving Dan utterly bewildered.

"Didn't I send everyone home..?" Kim Dan pondered to himself, wondering who it could've been, before his mind went to the only other logical option that it might've been security.

Hiding the file inside the bottom drawer and underneath some papers, Dan stood up and straightened his attire before heading to the door and opening up to an unfamiliar figure.

A boy, with cropped black hair, thick black brows and doe irises.

"Kim Dan, yes?" The boy raised his brow, earning a slow nod from the man, "My name is Hwang Yoon-gu."

"I was told to make my formal introduction now rather than later."

Kim Dan furrowed his brows, as it hit him like a ton of bricks that Jaekyung had probably sent Yoon-gu to him.

But why?

"You work for Mr.Joo, yes?" Dan raised his brows, stepping aside and letting Yoon-gu in and allowing him to have a seat on one of the guest chairs, "I take it you aren't just here to introduce yourself."

Yoon-gu nodded, his expression rather stoic as he inspected Kim Dan. His brows creasing at how unmoved Mr.Joo's new business partner acted.

"He asked me to follow up with you; to ensure that you had no questions because he has something else he wants to ship within the next week or so." Yoon-gu explained, shifting his gaze to Dan's neat looking desk, not spotting something out of the ordinary until it caught his eye.

A simple photo of Dan with another, that should've been glazed over had it not been for that fact that Yoon-gu had met that other.

Heesung.

In even a photo that was however many years old, Heesung still maintained that rather irritatingly smug look in Yoon-gu's eyes.

"I don't have any questions," Dan's voice broke through Yoon-gu's thoughts, "After what happened the first time around, I didn't think he'd want to ship so quickly."
