"You're a psychopath." "Awh, sweetheart, you really mean that?" • • • [ENEMIES TO LOVERS] In a cyberpunk world, low-life smuggler Park Jimin lives in the Undercity, a dangerous underground with over one hundred levels, each with their own traits and dangers. Aboveground is the Royal Court, the governing faction who rarely bothers to stick their head in to check on their dying people. Jimin smuggles all kinds of goods down the levels, but no one ever goes up. Going up is asking for death. Only someone with no sense of self-preservation would ever try to smuggle goods up. Yet Jimin finds himself smuggling goods up. And not just any goods―a member of the Royal Court. Princess Y/n L/n is trapped 42 levels down in the Undercity. Park Jimin is her only hope, but their drastically different personalities clash and lead to fatal mistakes, betrayals around every corner, and a mysterious past Y/n hides from Jimin. The ultimate question is what awaits at the Royal Court, and, most importantly, can Y/n and Jimin make it, or will they die trying? Or, more likely, will they kill each other first?

COMPLETED --- || ROMCOM || When Y/n L/n flies to California to compete in the famous Hell's Kitchen show starring Gordon Ramsay, she didn't know to expect, but it certainly wasn't the cocky Park Jimin, quiet but powerful Jeon Jungkook, and cold Kang Seulgi. Y/n only makes matters worse by blurting out an ill-timed, "Oh God, you're hot" to Jimin before even learning his name. From there, Y/n must battle through tough challenges, get into heated arguments with obnoxious teammates, and resist her overwhelming urge to fall in love with the arrogant Park Jimin, all in the name of winning Hell's Kitchen. What could go wrong? --- This is a light, fun story with little angst, only some moments of comfort and subthemes of the toxicity of the industry. It is labeled mature due to the frequent (and colorful... you know how Ramsay is) profanity, some mature themes, and spicy scenes (no graphic smut, though). Please do not take this story too seriously since it's absolutely obnoxious and is meant to be a fun read.
