[Book 1] He chose legacy. She chose herself. Now love demands a reckoning 🩶 ──── ୨୧ ──── Eric Minghao was born into wealth, power, and expectation. A legacy older than his mistakes and heavier than his heart. Raised to obey, to inherit, to become exactly who his family needed him to be, Eric learned early that love came second to duty. His father's word was law. The future was already written. Olivia Spencer loved him anyway. She loved him through missed moments, quiet disappointments, and a relationship that always seemed to come after boardrooms, family dinners, and a name that demanded obedience. Until love started to feel like compromise. Until she realised she was building a life around a man who would never choose her first. So she walked away. Years later, fate pulls them back into each other's orbit. The chemistry is still there, raw and undeniable. The feelings still dangerous. But so are the ghosts of the past. Because Eric is still tied to the legacy that once controlled him. And Olivia refuses to disappear into someone else's shadow again. This time, love demands a choice. And not all legacies survive being challenged.

BLACK WOMAN X WHITE MAN/ASIAN MAN "You want to play games? Fine. But we play them my way." Camila Quinn built her life on discipline. A pre-med student with a flawless GPA, meticulous routines, and a future mapped years in advance, she believes in control-in earning what she wants and keeping drama at arm's length. Even her relationship with Alex Walker, the star quarterback she's been with since high school, fits neatly into that plan. Until it doesn't. College changed him. The attention, the ego, the entitlement that comes with being untouchable. Slowly, the respect fades. The excuses stack up. The silences grow louder. And eventually, the truth becomes impossible to ignore. Alex was unfaithful. He never says it outright, but the disrespect is evident. Camila tries to let go. Tries to be the bigger person. But heartbreak curdles into something sharper when she realizes how little he seems to care. One disrespect for another. Anger takes root. And then there's Leo Brooks. Alex's former best friend. His unresolved rivalry. A transfer student with his own reputation, his own edge, and a very clear reason to hate Alex just as much as she does. Leo keeps appearing-everywhere. Unintentional of course, but; That's when the idea forms. What starts as strategy quickly turns dangerous. Because Leo isn't a pawn, and Camila isn't as unaffected as she pretends to be. The more they blur the lines between revenge and desire, the harder it becomes to tell what's real-and who's going to get hurt in the process.

Anna Clarke never expected destiny to find her in a city that still felt, at times, like borrowed ground. Three years after leaving London for Seoul, she has built a quiet, beautiful life running her own flower shop-arranging blooms for strangers while carefully holding together the fragile pieces of her own world. Living with Spina bifida means every day is a negotiation between independence and limitation, and lately, the weight of it all has begun to dull even the brightest petals she works with. Then, one morning, everything changes. A small rose tattoo appears on her wrist-delicate, ink-like, and impossible to ignore. In a world where soulmarks are undeniable proof of fate, Anna knows exactly what it means: somewhere out there, her soulmate is waiting. But hope feels dangerous. People like her don't get storybook endings... do they? until she goes to a BTS concert. In the midst of the performance, Jimin spots her. His gaze locks onto her. Unbeknownst to Anna, Jimin has been hiding a matching rose mark-one that appeared years ago, long before he ever thought he'd meet the person it belonged to. In a life defined by global fame, relentless schedules, and carefully managed distance, he had almost given up on the idea that fate would ever feel real. Until now. What follows is a chance encounter backstage that neither of them can fully comprehend, let alone control. Their connection is immediate, undeniable-but far from simple. Anna struggles with the reality of being tied to one of the most recognizable idols in the world, while Jimin wrestles with protecting something deeply personal in a life that has never truly been his own. As their worlds collide-hers rooted in quiet resilience, his in blinding spotlight-they must decide whether soulmates are defined by destiny alone... or by the courage it takes to choose each other despite everything. Because sometimes, fate doesn't just find you. It asks everything of you.
