✦ EPISODE 1: The Man Everyone Fears…
Everyone at Vexon Enterprises knew three rules:
1. Don't be late to meetings.
2. Don't ask personal questions.
3. Never—ever—get on the wrong side of Mr. Rael Ahn.
Because the man was a walking storm in a designer suit.
At just thirty, he was the CEO of the most powerful luxury conglomerate in Korea. Cold. Ruthless. Silent. No scandals. No girlfriends. No weakness.
That's what the world believed.
But what the world didn't know…
Was that he had a wife.

It was nearly midnight.
Rael Ahn walked into his penthouse—silent, sleek, emotionless—like every night. But the moment the door closed, his eyes scanned the space like he was searching for something.
Or… someone.
A soft sound came from the kitchen.
And there she was.
Eliya Moon — barefoot, wearing his oversized shirt, hair tied messily, holding a bowl of instant ramen.
"You're late," she muttered, not even looking up from her food.
Rael didn't respond. He walked straight to her, loosened his tie, and pulled her into his arms from behind.
"You didn't wait for me," he murmured against her neck, voice low and rough.
"You said you'd be home by ten."
"I had a meeting."
"You always have meetings."
She didn't mean to sound cold—but it slipped. And Rael went still.
Then, slowly, he turned her to face him.
"Are you angry, wife?" he asked, his tone unreadable, but his eyes glinting with danger and… something else. Something raw.
Eliya swallowed. "I just feel like I'm your secret."
"You are," he admitted.
That one word. Sharp. Unapologetic.
She looked away. "Then why marry me?"
He cupped her jaw gently but firmly. "Because I don't share what's mine, Eliya. And you… are mine."

✧ Flashback – One Year Ago
It was raining when he walked into her flower shop. No bodyguards. No suit. Just a black hoodie and eyes that held storms.
He bought one white lily.
Then came every day after.
Until one day, he said:
> "Marry me. But no one can know. I'll protect you from everything—even myself."
And stupidly, sweetly, she had said yes.

Back in the present…
"Your assistant tried to flirt with me again today," Eliya said, pulling away. "At the grocery store. She doesn't know I'm your wife."
Rael's jaw tightened.
"Name."
"No. I'm just saying—"
"Name, Eliya."
She stared at him. "Rael—"
But he was already pulling out his phone.
"You belong to me," he growled under his breath. "And the world will burn if anyone forgets that."
