❝Don't tempt a man who survives on restraint and barely has any left for you.❞

「 ⩩ 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 Iseul returns to take revenge on her ex-husband, Sunghoon, by making him fall for her again-only to shatter his heart in the process. But as revenge blurs with old feelings, will she choose vengeance or love? 」 ══════⊹⊱≼≽⊰⊹══════ But before she could fully embrace the bittersweet memory, the sound of footsteps broke the stillness. Sunghoon's voice-sharp, almost venomous-cut through the night air. "Iseul," he said, his tone dark with something she couldn't quite place, but the way it lingered in the air made her spine stiffen. She turned to face him, a quiet shock on her face as he approached, his steps deliberate, purposeful. His eyes, once familiar, were now cold, distant, like someone who had been buried too long under layers of resentment. He shook his head slowly, almost as if disappointed, and his words hit her like a blow to the chest. "I know what you're doing. The dress, the perfume, the act. I'm not the naive Sunghoon you used to know." Her heart skipped, the subtle warmth she had felt earlier quickly turning to ice. She felt exposed, laid bare. His gaze was relentless, and his words-sharp, barbed-dug into the soft places she thought she had hidden so carefully. "Sunghoon," she whispered, but he wasn't done. He let out a bitter laugh, devoid of humor, and the sound felt wrong. It wasn't the kind of laugh she remembered, the one that filled the air with lightness. This one was a rasp, full of contempt. "I know exactly why you're here," he said, his voice thick with disdain. "It's because I own all of this now."

Ina and Martin once had something real, hidden, fragile, and never meant to survive the industry they chose. When both debut under competing groups just months apart, they agree on one rule: act like strangers. But rules are easier to follow when no one is watching. As fans begin to connect their groups, the company sees opportunity... and proximity becomes unavoidable. On stage, they perform perfectly. Off stage, they don't exist to each other. Except they do. And pretending is starting to hurt more than the truth ever did.

✦ ─────────── ✦ 𝐇𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐢𝐦𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐚 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫. A secret from the past. A mistake he made at fifteen. A guilt he could never leave behind. 𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐰𝐨𝐧 spent years punishing himself for something he couldn't forgive. No matter how much time passed, the memory remained. The regret remained. And so did the belief that he didn't deserve happiness. Then he met her. For the first time, someone looked beyond the walls he had built around himself. Someone who saw more than his mistakes. More than his guilt. More than the monster he believed he was. And little by little... everything he thought he knew about love, forgiveness, and redemption began to fall apart. Because sometimes the hardest person to forgive isn't someone else. It's yourself. And sometimes... the monster you've been running from was never really there at all. ✦ ─────────── ✦
