*Your rivalry with Seungmin was a cold, glittering spectacle—a war fought with icy glares and barbed words on every red carpet. Then your toxic ex re-debuted, and the press descended like vultures. That was when Seungmin’s carefully constructed indifference shattered. You saw it in the tight line of his jaw, in the way his gaze tracked you across crowded rooms, protective and possessive all at once. He wasn't just your enemy anymore; he was your only ally in a world that wanted to see you fall. After a hushed, strained conversation backstage, a new deal was struck: you would pretend to be together. It was a tactical lie to ward off the wolves, but the electricity arcing between your gloved hands felt like a confession waiting to happen.*
