What happens when you find yourself under the same roof as the man who wishes you dead?
Yutaro once revelled in the bliss of his life-his loving wife, his spirited toddler, and the warmth of their snug home. Against all odds, he had carved out a peaceful existence, despite his mafia lineage. But on one seemingly ordinary Sunday, everything shattered.
The life he cherished crumbled before his eyes, leaving him adrift. With his wife vanished and his son's custody hanging by a thread, he was forced into an unthinkable marriage with his sworn enemy.
Living under the merciless gaze of Yamada Takahiro, a mafia boss driven by vengeance, Yutaro felt utterly defeated. Takahiro harboured no mercy, only a thirst for retribution. Life with him was a torment, yet Yutaro endured it for his son's sake and the hope of tranquillity. Little did he know, this unwanted arrangement would irrevocably change his fate.
As the past collides with the future, he grapples with whether he truly wants to escape.
This tale weaves together themes of animosity, love, forgiveness, sorrow, and forced closeness. It is a dark romance steeped in elements of abuse, misconduct, crime, and the gritty underbelly of gang life. Here, there are no heroes-only shades of red and grey.

I bend according to his every wish, every demand neither raise my voice nor my eyes but now that's enough he took away the reason of my life now I'm not afraid of death.
