Some stories start off like a fairytale.
Some start off mediocre.
Phoebe's started with untold tragedies.
With a burning desire for freedom.
A father who hates her.
Where she’s taught neglect and abuse is love.
She will stop at nothing to escape and reach her dreams.


Taeyung was a boy raised to be a monster.
A man with a deadly obsession.
Where power through fear and blood became a second language.
Her fire, her bite, her strength.
It was a trap and he fell right in.
Consumed by a desperation to own her.
He’d burn the world for her.
Tear down empires.
Nothing will stop him.
He would have her or no one else would.

"Breakfast is ready." Mrs. Choi came over greeting us.


The table was set. Small dishes were collected in the center, with plates sitting at 6 seats. Rice porridge, steak strips, fried eggs, a dish of peppers, onion, and diced tomatoes, pancakes and with a sunny side up egg on each plate.


"Wow, Mrs. Choi, this looks incredible." I clapped seeing the spread.


"Mrs. Choi, could I trouble you for two extra plates and eggs?"


"Yes, of course, Young Master." She bowed, backed way and headed back toward the kitchen.


"Young Master?" Mouse snorted raising her eyebrow.


"I am the Young Master of the Kim group. I'll eventually own the entire company. I will receive a large portion of shares and a seat on the board once I marry." He spoke in a way that sound distant. Like he was talking about someone other than himself.


"Thank you, sir. I've spent a long time preparing for the position."
