Paint Me in Wine Stains

The wine pours slowly. Dark like the blood he swore he'd never spill again. Seonghwa watches it fill the glass up to the rim, but doesn't stop. Doesn't even blink. The red stains his fingers. Good. Maybe he'll remember what it feels like to make things bleed.

He lifts the glass. He doesn't drink from it. He sighs, throwing the glass to the wall.

"Well fuck."

***

Park Seonghwa is an ex-mafia prince turned art dealer who faked his own death to escape the bloodstained world he lived in. He fell in love, has a family, even has a cat.

He's been legally dead for eight years now.
Everything was quiet. It was safe.

That was until someone close to him betrayed him.

Now they know the prince is still alive and targeted the one person that means the world to him.

And now, drunk on rage, Seonghwa has to go back to his mafia roots in order to take revenge.

But what if this is all just a mere chess piece playing on a bigger board?
