To survive a secret arrangement with Jeon Jungkook, Guest had three simple rules:" 1. No digital footprints. 2. Act like total strangers in public. 3. Keep your heart completely out of it. For six months, the system was flawless. By day, Guest was the untouchable center of AETHER, carrying the weight of her group's debut on her shoulders. She belonged to the cameras, the fans, and her company. By night, she surrendered to the heavy, intoxicating gravity of the world's most famous man in locked practice rooms and empty parking garages. It was the perfect transaction. A physical escape for two people crushed by the demands of their industry. Riha thought she was safe. She believed that by keeping things strictly physical with a man whose heart supposedly belonged to someone else, she was protecting herself from ruin. But logic has no place in the dark. As the lines between them began to blur and the late-night encounters shifted from desperate escapes to quiet intimacy, Guest realized a terrifying truth: the only thing more dangerous than the world discovering their secret, was the fact that she no longer wanted to hide it.
