[EDITING]
Some wounds never fully heal, and some secrets refuse to stay buried.
Ji-won has spent her life trying to escape the shadows of her past, clinging to overworking herself to keep the pain at bay. Jake, too, carries scars- memories of a childhood marked by loss, fear, and a family that failed him.
Fate and circumstance throw them together, two broken souls leaning on each other for comfort, trust, and understanding. But even the closest bonds can hide dangerous truths, and the past has a way of clawing back, threatening to unravel everything they've tried to build.
As Ji-won and Jake navigate love, loyalty, and the weight of their histories, they must confront the choices they've made, the secrets they've kept, and the fragile line between protection and betrayal. In a world where trust is a luxury, can they survive the truth- before it destroys them both?
The Guilty Defence.

Unwritten Endings || H.S
Two childhood friends, who were once inseparable, cross paths again after many years apart. But this time, their reunion is nothing like they imagined. One of them acts like they don't remember what friendship means or the pain of losing someone close. They've put up walls and seem distant. The other friend, on the other hand, has never forgotten their shared moments and still holds onto those memories, even though so much time has passed. When they meet again, it's obvious that things have changed a lot. The friend who seems to have forgotten everything is now caught up in a life full of secrets and dangers, and they have to keep their distance to protect themselves. The other friend can't figure out why things have turned out this way and is hurt by the fact that they can't go back to being close like they were before. There might be a deeper reason behind all of this-maybe there's some old grudge that one of them is holding onto, or perhaps someone has paid them off to stay away. Instead of bringing them back together, this reunion might just pull them further apart, tangled up in lies, mystery, and things they can't talk about. And something is bound to happen between them in the end-will everything go back to the way it was, or will things get so messed up that they end up as enemies?

Intertwined: Two fates | Book:-1 | Jikook | ✔
{Completed} A major accident seven years ago had stolen Jeon Jungkook's memory away from him, wiping it so clean that the only things he were left with were only his name, numerous scars all over his body and a nasty side effect as a result of the aftermath. Seven years passed by and when Jungkook thought he could live like a normal person again, a fateful day led him to be the prime suspect of the murder case of his neighbor who had written his name as her dying message - whom, in his defense, he had not even talked to! It was then that he met Park Jimin, the lone wolf of the Violent Crime Investigation Unit; the cold, intimidating man with beautiful and intense midnight blue eyes who seemed to hate him at first sight for some reason Jungkook couldn't comprehend. One after another, bizarre cases intruded on Jungkook's normal life and turned it upside down, bringing light to a dusty past he thought he could never remember again. In the end, he had to learn that even if he had forgotten who he once was... there were still some sins he had to atone.
