"You're my calm in the chaos, my certainty in uncertainty." Bang Chan is a workaholic software engineer, a brilliant but perpetually sleep-deprived, neglecting his well-being in favor of endless coding sessions. Despite his friends' attempts to set him up, Bang Chan prioritizes work, fueled by a difficult childhood and the recent loss. Meanwhile Choi Sun-Hee, a talented and passionate surgeon, dedicates herself to her patients despite a troubled past. Forced by her controlling father, the hospital owner, to abandon her writing dreams and become a doctor, Sun-Hee carries a heavy burden. Her father only cares about prestige and a family illness, manipulating Sun-Hee for his own gain. Fate intervenes when one of Chan's friend gets hospitalized, bringing Bang Chan and Sun-Hee face-to-face. As they get to know each other, they discover a shared yearning - Bang Chan for a life balance and Sun-Hee for a life of her own choosing. But their past traumas - Bang Chan's childhood struggles and Sun-Hee's fear - threaten to pull them apart. Will Bang Chan break his workaholic habits and find solace in Sun-Hee? Can Sun-Hee escape her fear's control and pursue her true passion?

"You're my end and my beginning" In the sterile echo of Bangchan's success, Aemi's love felt like a fragile bud struggling to bloom in a concrete jungle. Six years together, yet continents stretched between them, disguised as piles of paperwork and curt greetings. His stoicism, a shield against a past shrouded in mystery, mirrored the secrets Aemi clutched to her chest - a family fractured by addiction and an unspoken fear of abandonment. Stolen moments in his office, once filled with warmth, now held the chill of unspoken anxieties. A single text, a cryptic plea for help, shattered the fragile peace, a constant reminder of the burdens Aemi carried alone. Would their love, a flickering flame amidst the growing distance, have the strength to bridge the chasm of unspoken truths, or would the weight of their secrets extinguish it completely?

I've always known the path laid out for me - an arranged marriage, a tradition etched deep within the fabric of our crime family. Like my parents before me, and countless others, I too would enter into this union, a pawn in the game of alliances and power. Like a child promised a gilded doll, I received a future at the tender age of nine. Chris, the name etched onto my fate, was a stranger then, and an enigma now. By fourteen, a ring, cold and heavy, became the symbol of a life I never chose. Twenty. The number echoed in my mind, a stark reminder of the precipice I stood upon. With each passing day, the truth clawed its way to the surface. Chris, with his knowing eyes and easy laughter, had tasted a life I could only dream of - a life rich with stolen moments and whispered secrets. And I guess this is where my life becomes hell. I have also come to realize that He could never offer me the kind of love my father gave me. This marriage, a future carved in ice, promised no warmth, no love, only a suffocating prison built on obligation. This wasn't just heartbreak, it was the slow descent into a life where even the air itself will feel tinged with despair.

The Rising Empress --- "I guarantee you nothing will happen to you. I give you my word." "How much does your word weigh, though?" Aristia scoffs. "You vowed during our wedding to love, cherish, and protect me no matter what. So far, none of your vows were respected. You said it yourself. You were never a husband to me." "Neither were yours. In sickness and in health, I will stand by your side. With all that I am and all that I have, I pledge my loyalty and my love to you." Chris scoffs as well. "You didn't give me any chance to get close to you. You've put up your barriers and thought of me as your enemy since day one." She comes closer to him. "I had no idea we shared an enemy instead, Aristia. Truly. I thought you were a spy." "You didn't even ask me anything. You dead bolted me." "How could I have trusted you? You are the daughter of my enemy." Chris frowns. "I don't know. How can I trust you now, then? You are a man who hates me for simply being born as a princess of the enemy kingdom." "... I assume you can't." --- The Kingdom of the South and the Empire of the Sun forge an alliance at the expense of Princess Aristia - the daughter of a King who didn't want her, sent over like a sacrificial lamb to his enemy, a man who doesn't want her either, who won't even cast a look at her. She decides she won't look at him either. Two can play this game. --- Non-idol AU This story takes place in an alternate universe where Bang Chan is Emperor --- Mature content ahead. 18+ ©storminsidemycore
