Wooyoung had spent the better part of a decade dwelling on the disappearance of his father, though finally decided to accept the fact and start over. Now, the twenty-year-old sophomore, having worked hard to lay the foundations for that new start, is doing well. Good grades, good university, decent-paying part-time work, and good friends. Especially Choi San, who had enrolled a month after freshman year started and soon stuck to Wooyoung like glue. Having a tall, intimidating, taekwondo blackbelt who looked like he could benchpress a car as a friend definitely helped when Wooyoung's easy-going yet attention-drawing nature had to deal with certain types of customers. But when he witnesses something he shouldn't have that might actually have to do with his father, Wooyoung finds out there's more to San than meets the eye. - 18 + - Mafia au - Content warnings will be posted

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐢𝐭. One dark night, one fateful decision, one life saved. "We only have two rules; Forgive your enemies but never forget their names. Protect your loved ones and never betray the family."

All Wooyoung wanted was to get out of this lousy old town, escaping the problems that lie within it. When he finally got the chance though, things took a turn that he never expected. Instead of escaping all of his problems, he got sucked into ones even greater than before. All while admittedly falling for someone he is, by nature, supposed to despise. Warning: Will contain themes of violence, gangs, blood, death, weaponry (knives and guns), minimal mentions of alcohol, toxic relations, kidnapping, and suggestive scenes.
