Chapter 2 - INTRDUCTION

✦ Wang Hedi

Age: 25

Profession: CEO (publicly) | Mafia Leader (secretly)

Wang Hedi is the kind of man people fear before they even understand why.

Cold, calculated, and dangerously powerful—he built an empire where loyalty is earned through fear and respect. His name alone is enough to silence rooms, and his presence? Enough to make even the strongest hesitate.

Tall, sharp-featured, with deep black eyes that reveal nothing... he is unreadable to the world.

But not to her.

Behind the ruthless mafia king is a boy who once stood in the rain, holding onto the only person he had left.

He doesn't believe in love.

He doesn't trust easily.

And he doesn't forgive.

But for Kim Monami Anxin—

He softens.

He listens.

He protects.

Not loudly. Not openly. But in ways that could burn the world down if needed.

His greatest strength?

Control.

His greatest weakness?

Her.

Because Wang Hedi isn't afraid of death.

He's afraid of losing the only person who ever made him feel alive.

✦ Kim Monami Anxin

Age: 24

Profession: Cardiologist

Kim Monami Anxin is calm in a world that constantly tests her.

Soft-spoken but strong, she carries a quiet confidence that doesn't demand attention—but earns it anyway. With her royal blue eyes and petite frame, people often underestimate her.

They shouldn't.

Because behind her gentle nature is a mind that refuses to break.

She worked her way up, fought through pain, and became someone who saves lives—even when her own heart feels like it's falling apart.

She knows exactly who Wang Hedi is.

She knows about the blood, the danger, the darkness.

And she stayed.

Not because she's weak.

But because she's strong enough to love someone like him without losing herself.

She doesn't try to change him.

She tries to remind him who he used to be.

Her greatest strength?

Endurance.

Her greatest fear?

Watching him become someone she can't recognize.

Because loving him was never the problem.

Losing him is.

✦ Their Dynamic

Two worlds.

One heart caught in between.

Wang Hedi protects her like she's the only thing keeping him human.

Seo Jisung watches her like she's the key to something he hasn't revealed yet.

And Kim Monami Anxin—

She stands in the middle of it all.

Not weak.

Not confused.

But dangerously close to a choice that could change everything.

Because in a world built on power, control, and secrets—

Love isn't just a feeling.

It's a risk.
