Jake's father signs a clause that says:
If Jake dies, his entire empire transfers to Heeseung.
To the outside world, it looks like:
• Heeseung has motive to kill Jake
• The mafia is using Jake
• The marriage is suspicious
To insiders, it means:
• Heeseung is responsible if anything happens to Jake
• Other mafias won't dare touch Jake
• Jake becomes "protected property" of the Lee Clan
It makes Jake safer...
but also ties his life directly to Heeseung.
Jake is furious when he finds out.
Heeseung hates that he's chained to someone he used to beat in class.
But they don't get a choice.

___________________________________________

I'm Jake - sunshine, academic rival, and apparently the unlucky guy who just got sold into a marriage with Heeseung, the mafia's coldest, deadliest heir as well as my academic rival He used to glare at me across the classroom like I was the only problem he couldn't solve. Now he's my husband - thanks to a forced-marriage deal I definitely didn't sign up for - and he looks at me like he wants to devour me and strangle me at the same time.

"Careful, Jake," he murmurs, brushing a thumb over my lip, "I've killed more men than you've aced exams... but for some reason, you're the only one I want under me instead of six feet under."

He doesn't do love. He kills without hesitation. And yet, every time he calls me husband, drags me close, or smirks like he owns me, I feel like I'm the only person he can't destroy... yet.

Forced to live under the same roof, bound by blood, contract, and tension, our rivalry ignites in ways neither of us expected. Enemies, husband, obsession - sometimes the most dangerous thing isn't a bullet... it's the way he makes me ache.yeah i meant sore💀.

The worst part? I almost want to tease him just to see how far he'll chase me. And honestly... that might be the most dangerous game of all.

And this story is not for sensitive readers read at your own risk 😇💀
