Lee Youngseo has lived her whole life on the right side of every locked gate-
the daughter of old wealth, Seoul's quiet heiress, raised on etiquette, expectation, and silence disguised as perfection.
Jo Woochan has never stayed inside a gate in his life-
the leather-jacketed boy next door with a bike too loud for the neighborhood, a gaze too sharp for teachers, and a reputation built on rumors he never bothers denying.
They should never have crossed paths.
They definitely shouldn't have collided.
But when Youngseo's carefully curated world begins to crumble under family pressure, and Woochan becomes the only person who sees the real girl beneath the lace and diamonds, the lines between danger and desire start to blur.
He calls her a princess.
She calls him trouble.
Everyone else calls it a mistake waiting to happen.
But late-night rides, stolen glances, and the kind of tenderness that burns slowly are harder to escape than either of them ever expected.
And sometimes the wrong side of heaven...
is still better than the right side of hell.

"Why do you always look at me like that?" she whispered, fingers tightening around the silk ribbon of her dress.
"Like what?" he asked, stepping closer, leather smelling like midnight and rebellion.
"Like you're about to ruin me."
He laughed under his breath. "You think I haven't already?"
She swallowed. "You... you don't scare me."
"Good," he murmured, tilting her chin up. "Because you terrify me."
Her heart kicked. "Why?"
"Because," he said, voice dropping to something that felt like a confession,
"every time you look at me like that, I forget I was never supposed to enter your world."
Silence.
Heat.
Tension.
Two worlds trembling.
"...Then come to me anyway," she breathed.
He did.
