Kim Taehyung despises Jeon Jungkook. To him, Jungkook is nothing more than a product of nepotism, a star handed fame rather than earning it. But is that the only reason behind his hatred, or does a deeper wound lie hidden beneath? And what happens when, after years apart, Jungkook suddenly sees him again - not just anywhere, but standing on stage, receiving an award, shining brighter than ever? Entangled is a story of broken promises, of love tested against the harshness of a homophobic society, and of two men caught between desire and the unforgiving weight of reality. .

Kim Taehyung comes to Seoul, finally getting to pursue his dream of being a florist, taking over the small shop his grandmother used to own. In the plan of new life, big city dreams and in excited flowery endeavors as Taehyung had imagined, never had Jeon Jeongguk barging in them---a rich boy who does underground boxing for whatever reasons, with eyes that hold all the mysteries of the world---to completely and utterly change the trajectory of Taehyung's life. Taehyung learns life doesn't come with flowers only, it has thorns too. •Mature Content• ©NimraSajjad. Do not plagiarize/copy this work. No translation or videos allowed.

"They said professors shouldn't fall. But no one warned him about Jungkook." Professor Kim Taehyung was a man of rules-graceful, distant, and untouchable behind wire-rimmed glasses and tailored suits. He built walls with quiet words and colder glances, never letting anyone too close. But Jeon Jungkook never followed rules. A top student with a reckless edge, Jungkook saw through Taehyung's polished mask. He noticed the lingering stares, the subtle tremble in his voice, the way his fingers tightened around his pen whenever Jungkook spoke. But there was more to Jungkook than trouble. Something Taehyung could only feel crawling under his skin when those eyes looked at him too long. And now, the student wasn't the one being taught. He was in control. And Professor Taehyung... was unraveling. ☆Top- Jeon Jungkook. ☆Bottom- Kim Taehyung. #Angst #Mystery-Horror-Romance #Forbidden #Slowburn
