Cherry - Choi Mujin

He already knew the answer. He just hadn't wanted to name it.

His breath slowed, his eyes drooping closed. Fighting unconsciousness.

He just wanted to see her. Seeing her safe. Feeling her soft hands entangled in between his. Seeing her smile. Feeling her presence. That was all.

The feeling settled deeply in his chest as he finally let his eyes close. Imagining her at his side. Bickering. Scolding. Eventually smiling. He knew what it meant. He picked his brain, trying to find a moment where he felt different. But he couldn't.

*He loves her.*

Yoon Seo-jin was supposed to become a nurse.

Instead, one rainy night, she found herself standing between a dying man and the most dangerous organization in Seoul.

What started with saving a stranger slowly pulls her into Dongcheon-and closer to the man at its center.

*Choi Mujin.*

A man she should fear.
A man she should stay away from.
A man who, somehow, becomes the one person she can't imagine losing.

In his world, love is a weakness.

And Seo-jin is about to learn just how much it can cost.
