The story revolves around Choi Seungcheol, a successful businessman , who has a very deep past. His childhood was not like any other kids of his age which led to his whole personality.

But the journey is spiced up when he meet Yoon Jeonghan, with whom he falls in love deeply and tackles all the obstacles along side him. ⚠️ The story might contain some smut stuff, if uncomfortable, skip the chapters. Also the age mentioned might not meet with their actual age as it is fully based on my imagination.

he doesn't remember the boy who once knew him best but somehow, he can't stop reading the stories that do. each page feels too familiar like a life he almost lived. somewhere between fiction and memory, jeonghan begins to realise that the author behind the words isn't just telling a story. he's remembering one.

Jeonghan comes to Busan with nothing but exhaustion and the hope of disappearing long enough to heal. But one reckless night-and a kiss he was never meant to remember-pulls him back into feelings he swore were buried. When the stranger turns out to be his brother-in-law's best friend, living under the same roof, distance becomes impossible. Caught between old scars and a dangerous new pull, Jeonghan must decide whether love is something to run from... or something worth surviving again. A slow-burn romance about healing, longing, and second chances.

Jeonghan never expected to fall for Seungcheol-the calm, intimidating mafia boss. Respect and fear turn into passion, jealousy, and a love neither of them can resist. One mafia boss. One stubborn man. Endless angst. Endless love.
