❛ My head hurts, my head hurts, my head hurts. ❜ ❥ ⎯ Lee Minho doesn't expect to encounter love next to a moody teenager. Han Jisung doesn't want to encounter love next to the new trainee. But things lead to things and suddenly, they are both wrapped deep inside a vicious cycle of sexual attraction, necessity and uncomfortable obsession for one another.

It all starts with the end. Han Jisung (a clumsy chemistry student with a painful past) crosses paths with Lee Minho, better known as Venom (the new leader of the notorious Vipers) when two kilograms of Venom's cocaine are mistakenly delivered to Jisung's doorstep, then lost by Jisung himself, under circumstances the idiot cannot remember. Minho accuses him of theft, giving Jisung a fourteen day deadline to either find and give back the cocaine, pay an impossible debt, or take the mysterious third option which, Jisung assumes, has to mean death. In his desperate quest for a way out, Jisung stumbles through a waking nightmare: unexpected connections between Minho and people he thought he could trust, mysterious news articles, abandoned mansions, crime scenes, black-tie parties, chaebol gossip, mafia families, escaping gunfire on the back of Minho's motorcycle. But every single path only leads him back to the night he lost the drugs, and to unanswerable questions: What the hell happened to the two bricks of cocaine? Why can't he remember losing them? What is Minho hiding? And what does the bastard truly want from Jisung? MAFIA AU 16+ (tws in the introduction) COVER MADE BY THE TALENTED ICHINISAMFOLIO ON DISCORD

Han Jisung, an abandoned child adopted by Lee Lina, was caught in the eye of one of the most dangerous mafias in the history of Seoul, Lee Minho.

Jisung has a troubled past, causing emotional pain and trust issues in their relationship. Minho struggles with family issues. Can they trace the blurred lines between love and hate? Can they understand the beauties and pains of love? And most importantly, can they do it together? ⚠️Warning • gay • homophobic • swearing • sexual content • child abuse • mental illness • smut(?)
