The Seoul night hung heavy, thick with the metallic scent of blood and unsaid threats. In the shadowed outskirts, Kim Taehyung stood motionless, the warmth of his pistol still radiating through his leather glove. The body at his feet—a traitor to his empire—lay silent. Taehyung’s gaze was void, his heart a fortress of ice. He turned to vanish into the darkness, but a soft crunch shattered the stillness. He froze, predator instincts flaring, gun raised. Through the gloom, he spotted her: a tiny figure on a dusty crate. A three-year-old girl, round-faced and serene, held a bag of chips. She blinked her wide, doe-like eyes, then offered him a chip. Taehyung, the ruthless mafia lord, stood paralyzed, his lethal composure cracking under the weight of innocence.
