    Summary

    The bartender looks too good, the muscles in her arms flexing whenever she shakes a cocktail, the gloss on her lips catching under the bar lights whenever she smiles, the red hairs flying away from her updo bouncing as she runs across the counter.

    Haru needs her.

    Summary

    “so, gyuvin, tell me a little about yourself.”

    "like, anything?”

    ricky nods. gyuvin racks his brain for something interesting to say. “i can break an apple in half with my bare hands,” is what he settles on.

    he receives a stifled chuckle in return. “something more to do with your sex life, maybe.”

    gyuvin isn’t a prude by any means, but the words sex life spoken so casually in a public space make him startle a little in his seat. he does a nervous glance around the café, checking to make sure that no one in their vicinity is listening to their conversation, before he leans in close until his face is barely a few inches away from ricky’s own.

    “my sex life,” gyuvin whispers, “is in the gutters, man.”

    drunk out of his mind and with nothing better to do, ricky decides to post an advertisement offering his “sexpert tutoring services” as a joke one night. an equally drunk and extremely desperate gyuvin—who’s just been dumped because he sucks in bed—actually texts the number on the ad.

    Summary

    Hao holds out the chopsticks to Hanbin. “Are you in?”

    After a moment’s consideration, during which Hanbin worries his lip beneath his teeth so tightly that Hao wonders whether he might split the skin, Hanbin reaches out and takes the chopsticks. Determination twists his mouth, though there’s a new, bright spark in his eyes. “I’m in,” he says, voice rough. “Let’s do this.”

    or: Hao loves his friends to death, but he really wishes they would stop bugging him to get a boyfriend. Between finishing his bachelor with honours and practising his violin, he doesn't have time for silly things like love. His unexpected saviour comes in the form of Hanbin, who Hao hires to be such a Perfect Boyfriend Extraordinaire that the kids will have no choice but to leave him alone—and who may just become so much more.

    Summary

    “So, what do you think? Will you help me?”

    “Hah!” Ricky chokes out a laugh. He sits up straighter. “I don’t really think I’m the right person to find someone to help you commit marriage fraud. Most of the people I know that own property aren’t good people. And they’re old—”

    “What?” Gyuvin’s drops his feet off the railing, his sandals hitting the ground with a sharp thwack. “No, Rik, I’m asking you to marry me.”

    (OR: Gyuvin and Ricky take the dive and get married for tax benefits.)

    Summary

    Est, a billionaire's heir in his last year of college, fights underground - not for glory, but to feel alive and to spite his father by building a fortune from his own split lips and broken ribs. William, a third-year scholarship student, pours everything into his struggling community gym - the only place that's ever felt like home. When their worlds collide, the impact leaves them both exposed - in the ring, on campus, and in ways that challenge everything they thought they knew.
