Synopsis
Book Description: “You once told me I disgusted you… Then why can’t you stop looking at me now?” Seo Taeha is a brilliant, cold-eyed mid-level lawyer navigating the twisted corridors of power inside Seoul’s most prestigious law firm. Behind his perfect suits and sharp intellect lies a man still haunted by the guilt of his teenage cruelty. Lee Hamin is a former heir turned male escort, forced into the underworld of nightlife after his family’s ruin. He’s beautiful, strong, and emotionally impenetrable — until one night, he walks into a bar room and finds the very man who once shattered him. Years after a brutal rejection, they meet again under the worst possible circumstances — a corporate dinner, an open secret, and the same shameful hands touching Hamin in ways Taeha can’t unsee. Their connection is raw, forbidden, and painfully unresolved. And as secrets unravel, lust deepens, and trauma resurfaces — they must face a past soaked in humiliation, desire, and everything they never dared to say. Some love stories burn. Theirs was already ash.

Chapter 1 - Introduction

The night he saw Lee Hamin again, Seo Taeha thought he was hallucinating.

Amid the perfume, the laughter, and the clink of whiskey glasses in the private lounge, he saw him — standing silently in the doorway in a half-unbuttoned silk shirt, eyes blank like they'd seen too much.

The boy who once confessed under the cherry trees.

The boy he crushed with a single sentence.

Now a man. Beautiful. Scarred. Untouchable.

And sitting in another man's lap.
