When Y/N, a young woman drowning in debt and the desperate care of her dying mother, receives a mysterious invitation to a deadly game, she sees it as her last chance for escape. But what begins as a brutal contest for survival quickly spirals into a terrifying fight for her life. Forced to compete alongside a group of strangers, Y/N is thrust into the game's merciless challenges, where every move could mean her end. As the game progresses, Y/N catches the eye of the enigmatic Frontman, the shadowy figure who oversees the brutal games. Hidden behind his cold mask, he watches her with an unsettling intensity, captivated by something in her that draws him in-something he can't quite explain. As he observes her every move from the control room, an unexpected fascination begins to consume him. Despite his role as the ruthless overseer of the games, the Frontman finds himself torn between his duty and his growing obsession with Y/N. As Y/N navigates the horrors of the game, a forbidden connection begins to grow between them-one that could either save her or destroy her. Will she learn to trust her heart in the midst of betrayal, or will the Frontman's dark presence prove to be her undoing? *i dont own the characters

Y/N has spent years chasing the truth about the Squid Game. She was so close to solving this case, until... She's captured and forced to participate in the annual games by the Front Man. Survival becomes her only focus. But something about Player 001 doesn't sit right with her. What she doesn't know is that behind the mask of the Front Man lies the same man who's been watching her every move. Player 001. Y/N is caught in a seperate game of trust, betrayal, and crazy hot tension with 001. In the Squid Game, crossing lines isn't just a risk, it's the only way to survive.

Y/n has no choice - to escape her debts, she joins the mysterious Games. But in the very first game, she meets Seong Gi-hun and just because of that, without knowing it, she catches the attention of the wrong man. The Frontman watches her. She is stubborn, fearless - and she is working with the only player who has ever stood against the system. He doesn't trust her. He has to keep an eye on her. So he makes a risky decision: he enters the Games himself. What starts as control soon turns into something he can no longer deny. For the first time in nine years, he begins to feel something again - for a woman who was never meant to survive. And suddenly, he does everything to make sure she does. He manipulates the Games, bends fate, risks everything. But what happens when she finds out who he really is? Now Y/n must decide: Will she run - or stand by the side of the man who has already decided that he'll never let her go? But one thing is certain: Once you are part of the Game, you are part of it forever.

She's just getting settled in when she meets an interesting salesman. He tells her that she can play games for money. Making a little money won't hurt... or will it? She'll find out when she decides to join the games. She may also find more than wealth and death in the walls. Maybe she'll find love. This story is a slowburn that includes some enemies to lovers themes/undertones. The reader is female! ~~~ NOTES/ANNOUNCEMENTS/WARNINGS: When Y/N is in the games, I basically follow everything in Squid Game Season One, but I changed a few quotes and events to better suit this book and the inclusion of Y/N. The only trait I have assigned to Y/N is her player number: 055. You can imagine something else though! It won't be very important later on. Some possible triggers including: recurring PTSD, grief, mental breakdowns, drinking, hangovers, very brief sexual assault, detailed sexual assault, etc. More time-specific warnings will be present with the start of each chapter. No warnings = nothing I think will be particularly bad. There's strong language and constant mentions of death as almost this entire story is hosted in a facility that runs death games.

SPIN OFF FROM MY MAIN BOOK 'PROTECTION'!! What if.. Y/N went with In-ho instead of back to the games? Taking place after the season 2 finale, Y/N joins the frontman behind the games. She's forced to watch the games, her friends fighting for their lives. Yet she knows she'd do anything for In-ho. For the man she loved. -- Smut warning (optional smut) Swearing Violence Death --

"You're quite the observer, aren't you?" She is a riddle wrapped in silence, a quiet storm with a fire burning just beneath her calm exterior. Her words are few, but when they come, they slice through the air-sharp, purposeful, as though they were forged in a place where only truth could survive. In this game of death and deceit, she is the anomaly, the one who dares to shatter its brittle rules. Selflessness is her weapon, her gift, and her curse. She would throw herself into the fire to pull another from the flames, as if the world could break, but she alone would hold it together. But I know her kind of selflessness is a ticking bomb-a force that could unravel the very foundation of the game. She could burn it all down without a second thought, and the thought of her doing that is something I cannot allow. She is not just a player. She is a shadow moving through this twisted maze, her identity a secret buried deeper than the darkest corners of this place. A ghost, something more than flesh and bone, a force that makes the game tremble at the thought of her unraveling its perfect design. And the more I watch, the more I realize-I have no idea just how dangerous she truly is. 317k words so far!
