Karina X Male OC -𝙰𝚞𝚝𝚑𝚘𝚛'𝚜 𝙽𝚘𝚝𝚎- So, uhm, this is my first ever published novel. It wasn't grand but its kinda feel like an achievement to me. The other novels I wrote will most probably never see the light of day. Yeah... kinda awkward honestly. And reminder, English is not my first language. So bear with me. I hope you guys enjoy reading this 'bizzare' story and I apologize in advance if I had disrespected anyone. If you have anything in mind, feel free to voice it out. Thanks. Happy reading. -yours sincerely, 𝘡𝘦𝘦𝘮𝘴.

[ONE: High School Heroes] Han Eun-Seol is a class president, a top student, and the daughter of a gang member serving time for multiple counts of murder. Her life is a careful balancing act-keeping her grades high and her record clean enough to maybe, just maybe, make it out of this school and into college. Far away. Somewhere quiet. Somewhere safe. But dreams don't always come true the way you imagine. Sometimes, they come crashing in-loud, messy, and wearing a cracked smile. And Eun-Seol is about to find out that the heart doesn't always care about survival. Kim Seung-Joon x fem!OC Started: 09.06.25 Finished: -
