Hanni Pham has everything: a prestigious job, money, and a carefully planned future. Including a relationship that looks right on paper. But something inside her remains disturbingly empty. She lives in a "golden cage" of corporate Seoul, slowly losing herself, becoming a ghost in her own life. Until she meets her. A stranger who becomes the only bright spot in all that gray - and a thought she can no longer escape. Author's Note This story is inspired by Untold Night and Day by Bae Suah.

At Atria Biotech Lab, results are everything. Minji has built her place inside a system that doesn't tolerate mistakes-where pressure is constant, and questioning the rules isn't part of the job. But when an external audit is announced, everything shifts. The arrival of a young inspector disrupts the fragile balance Minji has fought to maintain, her presence lingering like a quiet threat-watching, questioning, getting too close. As tensions rise and collaboration becomes unavoidable, Minji is forced to confront something she's spent years avoiding: What if the problem isn't failure... -but something buried inside the system she refuses to question? _______________ All rights reserved © This story was NOT written with AI, but translated with its help.

Hanni is an aspiring author working tirelessly on her new murder mystery novel. With the support of her loving girlfriend Minji, she finally publishes the book, gaining attention from fans worldwide. But as the book's popularity grows, a string of real-life crimes begins to mirror her story... eerily similar to the murders she wrote. *This is a work of fiction* Credit to this Tumblr post for giving me this prompt: https://www.reddit.com/r/tumblr/comments/c7gbtk/writerserial_killer_romance/?rdt=36008

Hanni discovers that Minji is cheating on her with Sullyoon, her lifelong rival, the girl who's always tried to take everything away from her. The betrayal burns like acid, but instead of confronting Minji and revealing her pain, Hanni decides to flip the script. If Minji wants to play games, then they'll both play. And Hanni will be the one to win. She turns her attention to Haerin, Minji's best friend. Why not strike where it hurts the most? Why not make Minji feel the same agony she's been drowning in? Every stolen smile, every forbidden touch, feels like sweet revenge-a knife twisted deep into Minji's heart. And when Minji finally discovers everything, the world detonates. Anger, jealousy, desire-every emotion becomes a sharp weapon. But who will hurt the other more? Who will break first, consumed by their own obsession? Is Hanni truly willing to destroy everything just to make Minji suffer? Original story 🐶🐶🐶 {Bbangsaz} [Newjeans] {girlxgirl}

Twenty-year-old Hanni had a plan: graduate, build a career, live life on her own terms. Children were never part of that plan. Twenty-year-old Minji only ever wanted one thing: to be someone's safe place. The kind of mother she never had. Then one night, everything changes. A fire. A choice. A little girl with no one left. Some people are born into families. Others build them from the wreckage.

Minji loved like it was simple. Hanni loved like it was dangerous. Between the echo of pool water and the glow of a lonely phone booth, they built something soft, secret, and reckless. But when fear disguised itself as protection, one sentence shattered everything. Minji called. Hanni never answered. Years passed. Engagements were announced. Promises were made to other people. Until one university reunion forced them to walk the same street where their story first began. This isn't a love story about ending up together. It's about learning that sometimes loving someone means letting them go - even if your heart never does.

Kim Minji just transferred to a new school in Seoul. Quiet. Perfect grades. Unreadable eyes. No one knows she’s lived longer than anyone in the building. No one knows she survives on something far more dangerous than cafeteria lunches. Seoul is supposed to be temporary — just another city, just another school. Until one heartbeat changes everything. And Minji starts to wonder… How long can a vampire pretend to be human before hunger wins?

After getting cheated on, Hanni refuses to be the girl everyone pities. So she does the one thing no one expects, she starts "dating" the school's golden girl, Kim Minji. It's strategic. It's convincing. It's temporary. At least, that's what it's supposed to be. But the longer they play their roles, lingering touches, staged photos, whispered jokes that feel a little too real, the harder it becomes to tell where the act ends. And when feelings start slipping through the cracks, Hanni has to ask herself whether she's proving a point... or falling for the one person who was never part of the plan.

Minji thought getting into Silverbridge Academy was the hard part - until she locked eyes with Hanni Pham. Gorgeous, rich, and absolutely untouchable, Hanni rules the school with a smile sharp enough to cut. She's got everything: the looks, the power, the boyfriend. Minji? She's just the scholarship girl no one wants around. But when glances linger too long and secrets start to slip, it's clear Hanni isn't just watching Minji... she's interested. And in a school where reputations are everything, this little game they're playing? It could ruin them both.

Two ex-lovers, a team, and conflicts between them.
