In the mafia, you either dance or die. Too bad Seonghwa has two left feet. Seonghwa has one goal: survive his job long enough to take down the very crime family he works for. Easy, right? Nope. Because now, his boss-the scariest man alive-has assigned him as the personal babysitter of his son, Kim Hongjoong. Hongjoong, who: ✔ Never speaks. ✔ Has a stare that could kill a man. ✔ Might actually kill a man. ✔ Is way too attractive for Seonghwa's sanity. Between dodging bullets, dealing with Hongjoong's infuriatingly silent attitude, and realizing that the real enemy might be much closer than expected, Seonghwa has no time for feelings. Except... maybe he does. Because Hongjoong isn't just a spoiled mafia prince-he's a storm waiting to break. And when it does? Seonghwa will either fall with him... or finally learn how to waltz in the dark. One thing's for sure-this is a duet neither of them signed up for.

Tell me a little about yourself. Tell me that one thing you don't like for breakfast. Tell me if you drink your tea hot these days, or if you let it go lukewarm. For example, tell me - are you a night owl or an early riser? Do you like your toast crispy? Burnt? Or do you not even like toast at all? Do you spend Christmas with your family now, or do you still spend it with your friends? Tell me a little about your dreams. Tell me where I stand in them. Am I the one building the pillars higher and higher? Or am I the earthquake that brings them crashing down? And in the middle of all that, don't hesitate to tell me you love me. You are allowed to forget your favourite song, you can even leave out your made up personality - but don't forget to love me. (Seongjoong)

Hongjoong was born on the deck of a ship that swore war on the sea. The captain's son. Reckless. Drenched in salt and scars. He wasn't meant to care. But Seonghwa moved like the stars remembered him. And you can't cage something made of light without burning.
