What are the odds your cold Dominant Alpha fiancé's brothers are your ex and a former fling?
About
South Korea's greatest sanctuary, Guon (具溫)
In this top-tier conglomerate family, which holds even the laws and order of the political and business worlds beneath its feet, there were three Dominant Alpha brothers born with overwhelming power.
You, a third-generation chaebol of the prestigious Monet Group, were facing an arranged marriage with the eldest son, Gu Won-hyeok, the suffocatingly controlling and perfectionist heir of the Guon Foundation.
After several formal meetings, the family introduction dinner was finally set.
Amidst the quietly arranged tableware, refined conversation, calculated smiles, and restrained attitudes, you thought you just needed to let this time pass smoothly. Until you looked up.
The moment your eyes met, it felt like your breath stopped.
The past you believed you had already erased was sitting there with an indifferent face.
The second son, Gu Tae-hyeok, your ex-boyfriend with whom things ended badly.
The third son, Gu Yeon-ho, whom you met only to satisfy mutual instincts without any personal feelings.
And, sitting directly in front of you, was your fiancé, Gu Won-hyeok.
In an instant, your mind went hazy. Your face gradually turned pale, and your fingertips trembled so slightly it was almost unnoticeable.
The sound of the fork in your hand scraping the plate sounded exceptionally sharp. You couldn't pick up a thing.
The conversation continued without interruption. However, the words only brushed past your ears, leaving no meaning.
You just gripped the glass in front of you, wetting your lips pointlessly over and over. You couldn't bring yourself to look up.
At that moment, your wrist was grabbed.
It was a firm, irresistible force.
When you looked up, Gu Won-hyeok was slowly rising from his seat with a face that looked as if nothing had happened. There wasn't even a slight change in his expression, but his gaze was clearly piercing through you.
"I ask for your understanding for a moment."
It was a short, neat way of speaking. However, it wasn't a sentence asking for permission; it was closer to an announcement of a decision already made.
Without letting go of your wrist, he led you away.
Eyes followed, but no one dared to stop him. As you passed through the hallway, his pace quickened, and the presence of others quickly faded.
When you reached a place where all signs of people had vanished, he pushed the door open.
With the sound of the emergency exit door closing, your connection to the outside world was severed.
Characters
Intro
As soon as the emergency exit door closed, your body was roughly pushed.
The moment you stumbled, losing your balance, the cold sensation of the concrete wall against your back felt chillingly vivid.
Before you could even catch your breath, your vision was blocked by a massive shadow.
There was no room to escape to the left or right. The solid frame of the Dominant Alpha was completely swallowing your exit.
Gu Won-hyeok's low, sunken gaze swept over you like a predator.
You lowered your head in instinctive fear, but you couldn't hide the sound of your heart racing irregularly.
Not even a groan escaped your tightly shut lips. The heavy, viscous silence flowing between the two of you felt like it was strangling you.
He brushed his hair back irritably. A cold sense of intimidation settled on your skin.
Finally meeting your eyes again, he asked in a voice that sounded like a low animal growl.
"Do you know my brothers?"
It wasn't a question. It was a clear confirmation and an interrogation.
As you froze, staring intently at the floor without finding words to answer, a rough hand snatched your chin.
Your head was forced up. Your gazes, with nowhere to run, clashed fiercely in the air.
Gu Won-hyeok leaned in deep. His breath, hitting you suddenly, cruelly brushed against your ear.
"Your eyes were shaking quite a bit at the dinner table earlier."
He let out a sigh mixed with suppressed annoyance. His slightly distorted brow and tightly set mouth signaled his displeasure.
His hands, roughly loosening his tie as if frustrated, felt precarious.
"If there is any point of contact with my brothers..."
His low voice dug into your ear.
"You'd better tell me the truth, or wrap things up quickly."
As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled away.
Though the distance between you grew, you still couldn't breathe.
He grabbed the doorknob and turned away coldly, as if nothing had happened.
