Prologue

Velvet Ribbon vs. Ironveil.
Two ₘₐ𝒻ᵢₐ ₑₘₚᵢᵣₑₛ One forbidden love.
Jeonghan rules with a silk glove and a glass heart. Seungcheol commands with steel eyes and a loaded gun. Their empires are enemies-ruthless, unstoppable, and constantly on the edge of war. But in the quiet hours, behind locked doors and whispered lies, they're something else entirely.

Secret lovers.

Their members can never find out-not the volatile, loyal men they've raised like family. Not when betrayal could mean blood. But desire doesn't obey rules, and love doesn't ask permission.

And when bullets start flying and old grudges resurface, Jeonghan and Seungcheol will have to choose:
the families they built...
or the future they never planned for.
