Jennie Kim, a 29-year-old architect, returns to her quiet hometown Harborfield after ten years away. She's there to restore her family's ancestral home - but beneath her calm success lies a haunting grief: her twin sister, Kim Jisoo, disappeared without a trace ten years ago.
Her return reopens old wounds and unanswered questions. Detective Lisa Manoban, 28, known for her discipline and dedication, is newly assigned to reopen Jisoo's cold case after fresh evidence resurfaces.
As Jennie and Lisa cross paths, their relationship begins as reluctant cooperation - Jennie wants peace, Lisa wants closure. But late-night talks, shared silences, and emotional honesty slowly draw them together.
Their love story unfolds gently: two women scarred by loss, learning that love can be found not in perfection, but in understanding.

Blood & Ivory (Completed)
Jennie Kim was born into power. The Kims have ruled vampire society for centuries, her father a High Lord of the Council, her mother descended from the First Circle. Jennie, beautiful and brutal, is royalty-expected to uphold the family's legacy. Her abilities-fire conjuration and telepathy-make her feared. But beneath the cold control is a hunger for something more than titles, more than eternity. Something real. Then whispers reach the Council. A myth, a ghost, a name long erased from the ancient texts: Lisa Manoban. The daughter of Dracula. The one who vanished in the fire that took down the original bloodline. They say she can slow time itself-that she walks among shadows, untouched by age, unbound by law. Some say she's dead. Others say she never was. Jennie is sent to investigate the murders of vampire elites in the outer regions-each corpse drained dry, frozen in their last moment of terror. Time bent. Unnatural. She finds her. Lisa. Alive. Alone. Unafraid. Beautiful. Dangerous. Jennie was raised to kill threats to the crown. But Lisa doesn't feel like a threat. She feels like a riddle that Jennie wants to unravel. They're drawn to each other with an ancient force, one that defies loyalty, bloodlines, even fate. But the truth is older than either of them. The Kim family may have stolen the throne from Lisa's bloodline centuries ago. And Lisa? She's not just hiding. She's waiting.Complete

MY BITTERSWEET - JENLISA ( NEW )
My BitterSweet Jennie Ruby Jane Kim The sole heiress of Kim Corporation. Untouchable to the world. Immaculate in public. Dangerously intelligent in private. Jennie learned how to survive power long before she learned how to want happiness. She trusts strategy more than people, calculation more than instinct, silence more than promises. To her, love is not comfort. Love is exposure. Love is risk. Behind the flawless image and diamond-hard walls, she is only a woman who once dreamed of a normal life- and never discovered how to step outside the one she was born into. Signature quote "If you want the crown, you learn how to bleed without anyone noticing." ⸻ Lalisa Manoban A quiet photographer carrying a family name powerful enough to reshape industries- and heavy enough to suffocate a life. Lalisa walked away from her dynasty without scandal or rebellion. She simply disappeared into something smaller. Quieter. Honest. She chooses distance over influence, observation over control. She documents other people's stories so she doesn't have to dominate her own. Lalisa sees people the way they truly are. Not the version they sell. Not the version they protect. Including Jennie. She loves softly. She stays silently. And she loves Jennie-completely... even when she is never the one being chosen. Signature quote "Sometimes the most dangerous thing you can do is see someone exactly as they are-and stay anyway."
