In the heart of Seoul, Choi Seungcheol rules the underworld with cold, ruthless power-his only weakness, the family and brothers he swore to protect. On the other side of the city, Yoon Jeonghan, a quiet doctor burdened by loneliness and a dark past, clings to faith as his only reason to live. Two worlds-blood and shadows, faith and silence-were never meant to meet. But fate has other plans. When their lives collide, love will rise where vengeance rules, and hearts will be tested between loyalty, betrayal, and desire.

"I hate you. Every second here makes me hate you more." Jeonghan spat, glaring at the polished man before him. Seungcheol's lips curled into a sinister smile, making Jeonghan gulp. "Good, because love isn't even my style, darling." Seungcheol thrust the food platter in front of Jeonghan. "Eat up; you'll need more energy to hate me." He walked away, closing the door and leaving Jeonghan in darkness once again. What worse could happen than going for a walk the night before your wedding? Jeonghan, heir to a powerful corporation, lived under the protection of his family's wealth. But everything changed when he stumbled upon a gruesome crime committed by Seungcheol, a notorious mafia leader. To keep his secret safe, Seungcheol abducted Jeonghan, dragging him into a world of darkness and danger. Trapped in Seungcheol's underground empire, Jeonghan's hatred for his captor grew, yet he couldn't ignore the twisted connection forming between them. As days turned into weeks, the lines between captor and captive blurred, and an obsessive, dark romance began to unfold. Seungcheol's ruthless nature contrasted with moments of unexpected tenderness, leaving Jeonghan torn between his desire for freedom and a growing, forbidden attraction.

Yoon Jeonghan, the effortlessly charming and maddeningly arrogant CEO of Serene Quartz, a luxury lifestyle brand, has never gotten along with Detective Choi Seungcheol. In Jeonghan's eyes, Seungcheol is an uptight, self-righteous officer who carries a personal grudge against him for being rich, successful, and occasionally reckless. Seungcheol, on the other hand, sees Jeonghan as nothing more than a flirtatious drama magnet, a spoiled socialite who thrives on chaos and attention. Their paths, though occasionally crossing at charity galas and city events, have always ended in biting remarks and lingering glares. That changes when Jeonghan begins receiving anonymous, increasingly threatening packages: ominous notes, disturbing photos, and sinister little gifts with dark implications. Dismissing them at first as the work of a petty rival, Jeonghan's bravado falters when the threats turn personal. Seungcheol, deep into a serial harassment case targeting public figures, recognizes the pattern in Jeonghan's situation and begrudgingly steps in. Much to both their dismay, they're forced to work together, investigating leads around the city, interrogating high-society suspects at glittering events, and attending charity galas where appearances matter and danger lurks in plain sight. As the investigation pulls them closer, their sharp-tongued rivalry softens into teasing banter. Old grudges unravel, revealing unspoken admiration and buried attraction. Seungcheol realizes Jeonghan's arrogance masks sharp intelligence and an unexpected tenderness, while Jeonghan discovers Seungcheol's rigid exterior hides loyalty, humor, and a heart bigger than his badge. In the aftermath, both men must face not just the danger stalking Jeonghan, but the truth about their own feelings, and the fact that maybe their so-called rivalry was always just a very elaborate form of flirting.

Some games are played for fun. Some for revenge. And some? Some ruin you completely. A university AU where Jeonghan and Seungcheol are enemies in a game of pride, power, and desire. The only question is-who breaks first? Soccer player Seungcheol and Basketball player Jeonghan.

JEONGCHEOL ABO AU MPREG Seungcheol and Jeonghan were childhood bestfriends. They've always known they would grow up and become alphas. Seungcheol presented early but had to move to Seoul.

What eternal bachelor and Wall Street mogul Seungcheol wants more than anything is a boy of his own to cherish, but after years of heartbreak, he's given up hope. No boy will ever love him as much as they love his wallet. Until he meets his best friend's son-a young man almost twenty years his junior.

Jeonghan Yoon has been called a lot of things-brat, spoiled, dangerously unhinged. The bodyguard industry has another word for him: psychotic. He's a billionaire's son. Beautiful, rich, untouchable-and an absolute nightmare to protect. Jeonghan has never heard the word no-until the new bodyguard Seungcheol shows up. He's everything Jeonghan hates: serious, stone-faced, and completely immune to charm. But he's also hot. Really hot. And worse? He refuses to treat Jeonghan like the center of the universe. Which means Jeonghan has no choice but to test his patience-and maybe his professionalism-every chance he gets.
