When the world began collapsing, her boyfriend didn't protect her
-he abandoned her.
Left alone in a city where survival meant trusting no one, she crosses paths with Park Jimin-a cold, unreadable man who doesn't save people, doesn't ask questions, and doesn't believe in attachments.
They don't trust each other.
They don't even like each other.
But they make a deal.
A simple, transactional agreement to survive together and reach a place people call a safe haven-a place where life is supposed to feel normal again.
No emotions.
No promises.
Just survival.
But surviving together is never that simple.
Somewhere between the close calls, the silence, and the moments they almost lose each other, the rules they set begin to break.
What started as a temporary arrangement becomes something neither of them is ready to face.
And when they finally reach the place that was supposed to save them-
they realize too late that not all safe havens are safe.
Some are built to control.
Some are built to trap.
And some are far more dangerous than the world outside.
