After Hours is a slow-burning, emotional queer romance that delves into the quiet ache of longing, the tension of secrecy, and the difficult choices between expectation and authenticity.
By day, Seungcheol is a composed CEO in a picture-perfect relationship with Yura-graceful, loyal, and everything the world expects of him. But by night, he finds himself returning to the one person who makes him feel real-Joshua, his secretary (work husband), and the man he's loved in silence for years.
As Yura stands beside him, unaware of the emotional storm brewing beneath the surface, Seungcheol is torn between the comfort of familiarity and the raw truth of what his heart wants. Joshua, ever patient yet quietly breaking, has waited for the day Seungcheol would choose him-not in the shadows, but in the light.
After Hours traces their journey from stolen glances and unspoken truths to the painful risk of choosing love in the open. With beautifully drawn tension, tender vulnerability, and deeply emotional moments, this is a story about what it means to be honest-with yourself, with the one you've always loved, and with the person who's never stopped believing in you.

Forged In Silence •》JEONGCHEOL
Two years ago, their names were chained together-an arranged marriage born from power, legacy, and family expectations. What no one planned for was the tension that came with it. Jeonghan was raised to believe he was an alpha-sharp-tongued, elegant, and untouchable. Desire bent around him, never the other way around. But when the truth strikes-that his body sings not as an alpha, but as an omega-everything he thought he knew about himself fractures. The confidence he wore like a crown now trembles under the weight of vulnerability... and awakening need. Seungcheol, the cold and calculating CEO, accepted their union without complaint. On paper, Jeonghan was a strategic asset. In reality, he was a fire Seungcheol had spent two years trying not to touch. He endured every bite of Jeonghan's pride, every taunt, every push-until the moment Jeonghan's world shifts, and the walls between them begin to crack. What begins with tension turns into heated glances. Arguments dissolve into breathless silence. A single touch becomes a question neither of them knows how to answer. Their marriage, built on duty, starts to burn with something far more dangerous-longing, surrender, and the slow pull of desire that refuses to be denied. Because love doesn't always appear gentle. Sometimes it comes like heat- Undoing, consuming, and claiming everything in its way. Ranking #4 in Kpop #4 in Seungcheol #4 in YoonJeonghan #1 in SvtfanficComplete
Me After You | Choi Seungcheol
|COMPLETED| For as long as she could remember, Kang Haeun's world revolved solely around the Choi family. Her father was Mr. Choi's personal driver while her mother was Mrs. Choi's assistant. Even after her parents (and unfortunately the Choi's) untimely death when she was fifteen, Haeun continued to live at their state and eventually became the personal secretary of Chairman Choi, the patriarch of the family. However, the Choi she cherished the most in her life was the Chairman's grandson, Seungcheol. What started as an innocent crush soon turned into years of one sided love. In Haeun's eyes, Choi Seungcheol could do no wrong. Meanwhile, Seungcheol saw Haeun as nothing but 'the help'. When the Chairman passes away and a surprising clause in his will states that Seungcheol must marry Haeun if he wants to secure his position as the rightful heir of his grandfather's empire, they are left with no other choice but to comply to the old man's last wish. While Haeun sees this unexpected turn of events as her only chance to care for and love Seungcheol like she always dreamed of, her new husband is hell bent on making her regret every single day of their ill fated union. If Seungcheol had paid a little more attention, he would've realized that, in the end, the only one left with any regrets would be him.Complete
