Talented yet troubled detective, Jung Wooyoung finds himself in way over his head when his latest case collides with a world beneath the mundane that should not exist. Even stranger, is the mysterious, and possibly dangerous man at the centre of it all claiming Wooyoung's connection to this "underworld" runs deeper than the young detective realises. Can Wooyoung trust the ambiguous and disdainful San? Or should he have instead trusted his instincts from the beginning concerning the man...who may or may not be human. Either way, Wooyoung isn't left with a choice but to work with the arsehole when an attack leaves him with a powerful branding that, if left unchecked, could corrupt Wooyoung's soul and run rampant across the human realm. - urban fantasy au - 18+ - Content/themes/triggers will be posted in the introduction chapter
