Introduction
Kim Taehyung was born into a world that didn’t love him — not the real him, at least. A femboy among family members who preached tradition and conformity, Taehyung lived with the facade of the perfect son, the good boy. Behind closed doors, though? He battled secret wars. Being the second eldest of the Kim clan, duty was thrust upon him, suffocating and merciless. Since 2012, he’s fought for everything — his future, his education, his survival. No help. No handouts. Just him against the world.
The Kim’s demanded perfection. His brother, Seokjin — a femboy himself — had found a way out, married Namjoon, and settled down. Seokjin resides with a softness Taehyung craves, a life Taehyung dares not hope for. Park Jimin, his best friend — his anchor in the storm — is all he has.
Kim Seokjin.The oldest Kim. The one who discovered his escape. A femboy who, in defiance of everything, created a niche where he could breathe — and love. Seokjin was all his family despised: soft when they insisted on hardness, gentle when they required steel. But he didn’t shatter. He didn’t contort. He fled. And in Namjoon, he discovered a man who recognized him — all of him — and loved him anyway. Seokjin is a mother now, creating the type of family he never had. Pregnant once more, weighing love and survival, he protects his younger siblings as much as he can from the storm that he once ran away from. But the past has a knack for coming back, and Seokjin’s battle is very far from over.
Namjoon.Quiet, solid, but hot when it matters. Namjoon was the steady Seokjin didn’t realize he needed — the one who remained when others abandoned him. A man of action and words, he created a home with Seokjin, brick by brick, swearing to safeguard the family they built from a world that didn’t want them to be together. No promise is secure when the ghosts of the past visit.
Jeon Jungkook. The golden boy. Eldest of the Jeon clan. Spoiled, reckless, and untouchable. A social king who makes everyone fall for him — boys, girls, it doesn’t matter. A gym buff, an IT geek who knows how to play the game. People bow down to him, and he likes it. But Jungkook’s not searching for love. He’s searching for fun, searching for control, searching for something — though he doesn’t even realize it yet.
Two lives on a collision course. One struggling to keep her head above water, the other playing with fire. And when their worlds collide, nothing will ever be the same.
