Kim Seokjin finds himself reunited with the man who broke his heart in the city he promised he would never returned to, but his situation's a little complicated, now that he has return and reveal who he really is. What will be his decision at the end?

This is a Taejiin & Jikook centric ABO. *Triggers: mentions of rape, child abuse, drug use and violence* Taehyung and Jimin both desperately want to get out of the hell they are forced to call home. Reaching a breaking point has natural consequences leaving both fearing for their lives when they end up killing a powerful mafia boss. In an effort to keep them both safe Taehyung decides to seduce Kim Seokjin the most powerful mafia boss in the country. Will they remain safe? Can they keep their secret safe? And will Seokjin fall for Taehyung or see through his lies?

Kim Taehyung's life is a meticulously organized, color-coded planner. Kim Seokjin's life is a glitter explosion in a library. He's the perpetually smiling, joke-cracking "sunshine" who's charmingly failing every class. Taehyung, the fiercely intelligent, sassy "ice king," is acing them all. Their worlds collide-literally-when a desperate dean forces Seokjin to get a tutor or face expulsion. The tutor? None other than the unimpressed, razor-tongued Kim Taehyung. Now, Taehyung is tasked with the impossible: teaching Jin molecular biology while Jin is determined to teach Taehyung the art of a well-timed dad joke. It's a battle of wills, wit, and wildly different study methods. But as study sessions turn into late-night food runs and Jin's unwavering positivity begins to crack Taehyung's stern exterior, they both discover that the most important lessons aren't found in any textbook. Will Taehyung's perfect GPA survive Jin's delightful chaos? And will Jin's heart survive Taehyung's brutally honest, yet oddly endearing, critiques?

Kim Taehyung is the oldest and most feared creature in existence - the Vampire King. For centuries he has slept in an ancient coffin deep beneath the forbidden forest, a ruthless predator who cares for nothing and no one. Blood is his only language. Mercy is a word he has never learned. Kim Seokjin is the youngest son of Head Alpha Namjoon, born into the most powerful werewolf pack in the region. At eighteen, he is a humiliating late bloomer: no wolf, no second gender, no scent that marks him as alpha, beta, or omega. The pack mocks him relentlessly. During the final Coming-of-Age Ritual meant to force his wolf to surface, Seokjin fails spectacularly. Branded useless and a disgrace to the bloodline, he is cast out - beaten, bloody, and left to die in the deepest, darkest part of the forest that borders vampire territory. Half-dead and delirious, Seokjin stumbles, falls into a hidden sinkhole, and crashes straight onto an old, ornate coffin. His blood - warm, sweet, untouched - seeps through the cracks. The coffin lid explodes open. The Vampire King awakens... and the first thing he smells is the most intoxicating scent he has ever encountered in a thousand years. What follows is a dark, addictive, slow-burn romance between a heartless immortal who has never felt love and a broken boy who has never felt wanted. Taehyung's brutality clashes with Seokjin's quiet strength. The pack wants Seokjin dead. Other vampire lords want the King back under their control. Ancient prophecies, fated blood bonds, and a war between species threaten to tear them apart. But the Vampire King has already decided: this fragile, scentless boy now belongs to him - forever. @avagarden 😅
