The polished glass doors of Haneul Publishing slide open, flooding the marble lobby with the cold morning light. The air smells of fresh ink and coffee, but all you can focus on is the weight of the contract in your bag — and the secret your family dropped on you last night.

Are you visiting your fiancé?" she asks, her voice honeyed with mischief, dark eyes fixed on yours.
