In the catacombs of a city that never sleeps, two partners, Heeseung and Jake, prowled the night as the most formidable vampire hunters of their time. United by a bond stronger than blood. they navigated the shadowy world of the supernatural with a brotherhood that seemed unbreakable.
But secrets have a way of festering in the dark, and Heeseung harbored one that could undo everything: he had become the very creature they hunted. The transformation was a shock to his system, an unwanted gift from a cunning vampire they'd been tracking for months. Yet, even as his new instincts screamed for dominance, his human heart couldn't let go of the friendship and unspoken affection he had for Jake.
With each hunt, Heeseungs secret weighed heavier on him, the fear of discovery a constant companion. Jake, ever the observant one, noticed the subtle changes in his friend-the way Heeseung eyes lingered too long, the careful avoidance of mirrors, and the sudden aversion to garlic-laden meals.
The revelation was a betrayal that cut deeper than any vampire's bite, but it also peeled back the layers of unacknowledged feelings between them. Jake, faced with the truth of Heeseung's affections and his new reality, had to decide if the bond they shared was strong enough to withstand the ultimate test. Could their friendship evolve into something more, or would Heeseung's vampiric nature be the stake through the heart of their unbreakable bond?
