Teach Me How To Love [mxmxm]

[Sequel to PET]

Having failed for the first time in his career as an assassin for the South Korean Mafia, Jae Lim finds himself stuck in the States with the very same Triads he tried to kill. Moved from one place of captivity to another, Jae needs to return to Korea following the death of the head of the family, Yeseul Han, to finally have a taste of freedom. Being raised as an assassin, Jae didn't have memories filled with fun and sunshine and laughing friends and idle romances while growing up. In a place where only the strongest survived, there was no time to wander about emotions, and they stayed right where they belonged, pushed to the darkest depths of his brain to be forgotten.

Along come his two personal handlers, Qi and Xunan, a pair of teasing Triad lovers who are given the orders to oversee their rugged roaming prisoner. They might be a little rough around the edges and a little too mean at the wrong times, but their intrigue for Jae seems unrelenting. Besides, Jae doesn't want anything to do with them. It's too bad they love a challenge and they love watching the high and mighty fall to their feet.

It only takes one night after endless bickering to flip the tables between them. Tensions are high, the reign of the South Korean Mafia is crumbling, and rats are gathering, waiting for the moment to strike. There's nothing but trouble trying to stop their infatuation and when worst comes to worst, will they make it out the other side?

Jae thought he finally overcame that fear of falling, but when Qi and Xunan ignite those smothered ashes once more, will learning how to love become a liability or a source of strength?
