What happens when you find yourself under the same roof as the man who wishes you dead? Yutaro once revelled in the bliss of his life-his loving wife, his spirited toddler, and the warmth of their snug home. Against all odds, he had carved out a peaceful existence, despite his mafia lineage. But on one seemingly ordinary Sunday, everything shattered. The life he cherished crumbled before his eyes, leaving him adrift. With his wife vanished and his son's custody hanging by a thread, he was forced into an unthinkable marriage with his sworn enemy. Living under the merciless gaze of Yamada Takahiro, a mafia boss driven by vengeance, Yutaro felt utterly defeated. Takahiro harboured no mercy, only a thirst for retribution. Life with him was a torment, yet Yutaro endured it for his son's sake and the hope of tranquillity. Little did he know, this unwanted arrangement would irrevocably change his fate. As the past collides with the future, he grapples with whether he truly wants to escape. This tale weaves together themes of animosity, love, forgiveness, sorrow, and forced closeness. It is a dark romance steeped in elements of abuse, misconduct, crime, and the gritty underbelly of gang life. Here, there are no heroes-only shades of red and grey. *Disclaimer: Some part of the cover is taken from Pinterest and it doesn't belong to me! *

​With one sudden brake, You Shulang rear-ended Fan Xiao. ​In public- Fan Xiao: Are you alright? I share part of the responsibility too. Are you cold? Here, wear my coat. In private- Fan Xiao: License plate A68S57, White Audi. He hit me. How bad? He wasted 38 minutes and 42 seconds of my life. ​When they met again, Fan Xiao absolutely loathed the clear and gentle smile on You Shulang's face. ​In public- Fan Xiao: Working with Director You is a breath of fresh spring air. Shall we grab a meal later? In private- Fan Xiao: Change the wine. Make sure it's the kind that'll get him completely wasted. ​Under the thick shade of the trees, Fan Xiao's tall figure remained hidden as he watched You Shulang kiss another man. ​In public- Fan Xiao: Sexual orientation is a personal freedom. Director You need not take it to heart. In private- Fan Xiao: I'm going to fuck that pervert to death. Come up with a feasible plan. ​Reunited after their breakup, the itch in his heart never went away. ​In public- Fan Xiao: Shulang, I believe there may have been some misunderstandings between us. You Shulang: Take off the mask, you piece of trash. In private- Fan Xiao: Not behaving? Then don't blame me for being rough. ​A sweet story dressed in forced dog-blood drama and angst. T/N: This is not my original work. The series is currently airing and I can't wait to know the story so I searched for the novel and I published here the English translation to share to my fellow To My Shore fans.
