You're just an end to his means, until he gets you out of his system - until he is back to normal. It's not supposed to mean anything. But why does he feel this way? [disclaimers : minors dont interact | kinda dark bec of nonconsensual intimacy | read at your own risk]

← Synopsis At 25, she's everything the world envies: wealthy, famous, and stunningly beautiful. But behind the glittering facade lies a woman desperate to escape a fate she never chose-a marriage of convenience arranged by her relentless grandmother. Enter Joo Jaekung, a ruthless mixed martial arts champion known as the tyrant of the ring. Cold, remorseless, and fiercely guarded, he's the last person anyone would expect to become her unlikely ally. When she boldly offers him double his salary to pretend they're dating, his blunt refusal surprises her. Yet, when he proposes a daring alternative-an arrangement that could benefit them both-their lives become irrevocably intertwined. "Let me be clear-I'll pay you twice your usual rate if you just pretend to be my boyfriend." He smirks, unfazed. "No thanks. Money's not an issue for me. But if this is really that important, maybe there's something you could do for me in return." What begins as a straightforward arrangement quickly unravels into a complex dance of passion, hidden truths, and unforeseen feelings. In a world where trust is fragile and hearts are shielded, can two completely different souls discover love amid the turmoil?

As the game progresses, Y/N catches the eye of the enigmatic Frontman, the shadowy figure who oversees the brutal games.

Despite his role as the ruthless overseer of the games, the Frontman finds himself torn between his duty and his growing obsession with Y/N. As Y/N navigates the horrors of the game, a forbidden connection begins to grow between them-one that could either save her or destroy her.

Counts Total words: 120,757 Average words per chapter: 1,589 Amount of chapters: 76 ~~~ Y/N is a girl from America who recently moved to South Korea. She's just getting settled in when she meets an interesting salesman. He tells her that she can play games for money. Making a little money won't hurt... or will it? She'll find out when she decides to join the games. She may also find more than wealth and death in the walls. Maybe she'll find love. This story is a slowburn that includes some enemies to lovers themes/undertones. The reader is female! ~~~ NOTES/ANNOUNCEMENTS/WARNINGS: When Y/N is in the games, I basically follow everything in Squid Game Season One, but I changed a few quotes and events to better suit this book and the inclusion of Y/N. The only trait I have assigned to Y/N is her player number: 055. You can imagine something else though! It won't be very important later on. Some possible triggers including: recurring PTSD, grief, mental breakdowns, drinking, hangovers, very brief sexual assault, detailed sexual assault, etc. More time-specific warnings will be present with the start of each chapter. No warnings = nothing I think will be particularly bad. There's strong language and constant mentions of death as almost this entire story is hosted in a facility that runs death games.
