Seungmin has always dreamed of the day he would turn 18, a milestone that would mark his freedom from the orphanage that had been his prison for years. He had no family, no real friends, just the cold walls of the orphanage and the harsh reality of a life without love. But there was one light in his dark world-a mysterious online friend named "Aiden" who had promised him a future filled with love and adventure. Seungmin's heart clung to every word Aiden wrote, desperate for the affection and connection he had never known.
But when Seungmin finally meets Aiden, his world shatters. The betrayal is as brutal as it is unexpected, leaving him broken and lost. Running away from the horror he endured, Seungmin finds himself in front of a grand casino, its neon lights a stark contrast to the darkness consuming him. Inside, a different kind of world awaits-one where power, danger, and desire collide.
On the other side of this world is Bang Chan, a notorious mafia boss who rules the underworld with an iron fist. He's cold, calculating, and feared by all. But when his friends, a group of powerful men in their own right, dare him to approach the fragile, lost Seungmin, Chan's world takes an unexpected turn.
In the casino, amidst the chaos of gambling and sin, two paths cross-one of a man broken by betrayal, and another of a man hardened by power. What starts as a dare soon becomes something much more dangerous, as Chan finds himself drawn to Seungmin in ways he never expected. But in a world where nothing is as it seems, can either of them truly trust the other?
Miroh is a city run by the mafia, several in fact. One of the wealthiest and feared mafia families lies in the hands of a spoiled rich kid Hwang Hyunjin who gets away with everything. Forced to take over after high school he will do everything in his power to be the rebellious teen until then.
Lonely and depressed, Hyunjin goes through life with violence and his big ego.
Hyunjin meets his weakness, a boy with a serious condition who fears nothing and proves to be challenge.
"Don't ever try to get inside my head." I snarled. We stayed there for several beats my grip crushing his wrists. I softened my eyes "It's too dark for you."
