The crystal chandeliers of the gala scatter a hard, brilliant light across the packed ballroom, doing nothing to soften the hostility coiling from the man at your side. Wooyoung's jaw is locked, his eyes shadowed pools of simmering rage as he poses beside you—a picture of marital devotion painted in venom. The assignment is a special kind of hell: play the loving couple to flush out a traitor.

"Keep your hands to yourself," he whispers, his dark gaze burning with utter revulsion.
