Empire of obsession || SH
32 parts Complete MatureLee Jihoon built an empire from the ground up-Carat Entertainment was his kingdom. Ruthless, calculating, untouchable. Power was his to control, and it had been that way for years. But Kwon Soonyoung? Soonyoung was different. The half-Russian mafia boss oozed chaos and confidence in a way Jihoon had never experienced. Soonyoung didn't hide in the shadows; he thrived in the light, dominating every room he entered. And from the first moment they met, Jihoon could feel the tension between them.
Soonyoung wasn't like the others Jihoon dealt with. No, he was a force of nature-a dangerous game Jihoon hadn't been prepared to play. Every word Soonyoung spoke seemed calculated to make Jihoon question everything. His gaze lingered too long, his smile too dangerous, too promising.
Jihoon despised how Soonyoung made him feel. The attraction was a threat he couldn't ignore, no matter how hard he tried. He couldn't afford to be distracted, not by Soonyoung, not by anyone. But the mafia boss had a way of getting under his skin, a way of making him question his own control.
It wasn't supposed to be like this. Jihoon was the CEO, the one in charge, and Soonyoung was supposed to be his enemy. Yet every time their paths crossed, the space between them grew thinner. Every glance, every brush of skin, sent a charge through Jihoon that he couldn't fight.
He wasn't supposed to want him. He wasn't supposed to be drawn into this game. But Soonyoung played a different game-one where control was never given, only taken.
And Jihoon wasn't sure how much longer he could resist.
