The first rule of Janggi was simple- protect the king at all costs. Namjoon had lived by that rule since he was fifteen, since the night his father's body turned cold. Every move he made, every piece he sacrificed, was to ensure one thing- his family's survival. And now, Kim Seokjin was just another piece on his board. The wedding wasn't a celebration. There were no flowers, no soft whispers of love. Just an exchange of rings under the dim glow of a chandelier, watched by men who carried guns instead of blessings. Jin's face was unreadable, but Namjoon saw the defiance in his eyes. A king without a kingdom, a man forced into a game he never wanted to play. But Namjoon wasn't looking for a willing groom. He was looking for revenge. He leaned in close, his voice a quiet threat. "You owe me a big time, Seokjin" Jin didn't flinch. He met Namjoon's gaze and whispered, "You're playing the wrong game, Namjoon. I'm not a piece-you just handed me the power to destroy you." For the first time in years, Namjoon almost smiled. Let the game begin. ----------------------------------- Themes: Mafia | Revenge | Power Struggles | Omegaverse | Betrayal | Healing Tropes: - Mafia x Doctor - Forced Marriage - Forced Proximity - Slow Burn - Enemies to Lovers - Possessive & Morally Grey Top - Healing Through Love Important Notice: Bound by Vengeance is NOT a standalone-it is part of an interconnected trilogy.

Before he could walk away, fingers curled around his collar, slamming him against the wall. A whisper followed...low, dangerous, and sealed like a dark promise. "It isn't hatred," he murmured. "It's love. Whether you accept it or not." "Lies," came the broken reply. "Everything you've said is a lie." "Yes, I lied," he admitted calmly. "And I'll lie again if I have to. I'll do anything....but I will never let you walk away from me." The cold sting of a syringe pressed into his skin. ~~~~●●●●~~~~~●●●●~~~~~~~~●●●●~~~~~●●●~~ Agniv Mehra, a 24-year-old Indian student, arrives in New York carrying ambition, rebellion, and a past he refuses to speak about.

Landon: "You're a mistake I won't make twice." Jeremy: "Maybe. But we both know, I'm the sin you'll never stop craving, Моя Отрава." Landon King knew better than to love Jeremy Volkov. A devil with ice in his veins, Jeremy lured him in, only to shatter him. Now, Landon's heart is gone, crushed in Jeremy's grasp. But broken things don't stay broken forever- And this time, the devil may bleed. This is a saga of love turned ruin, vengeance born from heartbreak, and two souls caught in a dark, dangerous dance.

Blurb I don't know how to feel. I don't know how to fall. I see blur faces and hear voices from my past. Past, I don't even remember. I don't know who I am. All I see is a picture perfect meticulously created life. A life which wasn't even mine to begin with. I'm an imposter. And he will be my sinner.

LANDON KING x JEREMY VOLKOV There's something about Him that I can't quite shake. An unexplainable obsession that consumes my thoughts, driving me to extremes I never thought possible. He's become more than just a rival; he's an enigma I'm determined to unravel. As my obsession with him intensifies, so does my vow to destroy him. I'll tear down everything he holds dear, leaving him broken and defeated. When our rivalry reaches its climax, I'll emerge victorious, owning him in every sense of the word. Disclaimer: I DO NOT own most of the characters. They are a part of the Legacy of Gods series by Rina Kent. This is merely my take on 'what could have been.' Disclaimer 2.0: Landon and Jeremy (along with all the other characters in this story) are my interpretations of them from Brandon and Nikolai's POVs, because they're my babies. Most-if not all-of the characters differ from their RKverse versions, personality wise. There were things I disliked about the OCs, so I took the creative liberty to change them in this fanfic according to my moral compass. As a result, they might be boring to some. I'm just putting this disclaimer here so no one ends up disappointed. In other words: reduce your expectations to zero.

What will you do when life grants you a second chance-but the nightmare repeats itself? The same obsession, the same trap. Except this time you can't escape. You can't even die. Because your life no longer belongs to you. It's in the hands of the very monster you've been running from. The one whose arms you keep falling into no matter how much it destroys you.

Two mafia kings. One is pure ruthlessness. The other? Merciless to the core. They rule different worlds. But when fire meets fire... something has to burn. Arnav Singh, the silent storm of underworld, arrives in Italy for a wedding-his best friend's celebration. Suited in black, jaw sharp as a knife, eyes colder than death. He came for one night. One event. But that plan shatters the moment Ryan Blackwell sees him. Mafia boss of the Italian underworld. From across the grand hall, Ryan's eyes lock onto the stranger-dangerous, beautiful, untouchable. And Ryan? He has a weakness for pretty things. But he doesn't just want Arnav. He wants to own him. Dominate him. Break him. What Ryan doesn't realize is-Arnav belongs to no one. He's not prey. He's a beast wrapped in silk. And beasts don't bow. They bite. Arnav (voice like venom): "Touch me, and I'll make sure you scream for mercy before I snap every bone in your cursed body." Ryan (smiling darkly): "Mmm... threats turn me on pretty boy. You're going to beg tonight, baby. And I promise-I'll take my time." .

As we all love JerLan so much! So dedicated to bring as much as possible!
