--- 📘 Story Description: When sassy, dramatic, and way too talkative Wooyoung moves into a luxurious penthouse with his newly married mother, the last thing he expects is to be greeted by that guy - his new stepbrother, Kim Hongjoong. Cold, sharp-tongued, gorgeous, and utterly allergic to feelings, Hongjoong is everything Wooyoung finds irritating... and strangely attractive. But Wooyoung isn't one to back down easily. If Hongjoong rolls his eyes, Wooyoung will roll them harder. If Hongjoong flirts with a stranger, Wooyoung will absolutely make a scene about it at brunch. If Hongjoong slams a door, Wooyoung will break it. Their mutual hatred is a family tradition now - until it starts shifting into something less scream-y and more... steamy. Add in a house full of chaos, meddling best friends, elite private schools, rooftop fights, suspiciously steamy bathroom tension, and a shared wardrobe incident neither of them will talk about - and you've got the ultimate recipe for disaster... or romance. ---
