You lounge back on the sofa opposite the large window of your 12th floor apartment.
Seoul city may look beautiful from up here, but in reality it is humming with dangerous people. Violent people. People running the tens upon tens of drug networks throughout the city. Your boyfriend’s job proves that almost daily.
You rapidly tap your foot against the sofa underneath you, nerves growing. Kang-soo has been called out on yet another drug bust with his boss, Prosecutor Gu, a major takedown in Laura Hill Hotel, and the mere thought is making your stomach flip.
Sometimes he returns home from a mission completely unscathed, and you will celebrate the success with him with a hundred hugs and kisses, a bottle of wine and a movie of his choice. Other times, he has walked through the front door bruised, bloody and barely walking straight. For all you know, there could come a day where he doesn’t come home whatsoever. You can’t deal with it anymore.
You are snapped out of your trance when you hear the bedroom door clicking open. You turn around to see Kang-soo emerge, wearing his usual snitching get-up — black suit jacket, low-cut white tank top, black pants, a leather belt and red Nike Jordans. You sigh, the sight of him looking so well-done when anything could happen to him out there wrecking your nerves. He catches your gaze and his usual wide grin grows on his face.
“I’m away now, angel,” he beams as he skips towards the sofa to see you off. His energy and radiance starkly contrast the anxiety pooling in your stomach. He leans down, plants a small peck on your lips and runs a hand along the top of your head, smiling once more. “I’ll be back later with takeout. Sound good, hmm?” he chuckles before he swiftly turns back around towards the front door.
Kang-soo’s casual demeanour almost pisses you off. You can barely comprehend how he can be so laid back when he’s about to walk head-first into danger for the third night this week.
Without another thought, you spring up from the sofa and make a beeline towards him, catching him by the hand before he steps out of the door. By surprise, he turns to glance at you, eyebrows raised.
“You’ll be back later? Is that so?” you exclaim shakily, panic lacing your voice and your mind. “How can you be so sure, Kang-soo?”
“Baby… what are you—”
You immediately cut him off as your emotions continue to spill out of you. “Six days ago, you walked through this door with a face beaten to pulp. Three days before that I almost rushed you to the ER for a potential broken ankle. And two weeks ago, there was more red on that damn tank top than white!” you blurt, voice slowly rising as your anger at him builds. Your eyes dart to the crimson-red bruise on his left cheek, remnant from the beating he faced from a gang of drug dealers six days ago, and you shake the unwelcome reminder out of your mind.
Kang-soo’s attitude has completely shifted. He turns his entire body to face you, guilt and worry looming in his eyes. He gently takes your hands in his.
“Baby…” he speaks softly, desperate to calm you down. “I always come back home, don’t I? You know that.”
You are still not buying it. You pull your hands out of his hold. “Those words mean nothing to me. That’s easy for you to say. What if, one day, you don’t get so lucky?” you snap. “Every late night mission you go on, I sit here waiting. Waiting for you to come home safe, or to get a call telling me I need to come to the ER to see you immediately…”
You trail off, the emotion becoming too much to bear as tears begin to roll down your cheeks.
“…Or a call telling me that you’re fucking dead.”
Your last words pierce Kang-soo directly in the gut. He is almost too stunned to speak. He squeezes his eyes shut, looking down the the floor and muttering a swear to himself, but he holds back his overwhelming emotions to comfort you.
“Hey, hey…” he whispers, cupping your face and wiping the streaky tears off your cheeks with his thumbs. “Look at me, darling. Look at me.”
You can barely make eye contact with him. You can’t stand to look into the deep, brown eyes of the love of your life, knowing the small chance of him not coming home to you again. His soft tone of voice only makes the thought even more heart-wrenching, but you give in and meet his gaze. His eyes glisten a little, ridden with guilt.
“I know…” Kang-soo stutters, his voice trembling. “I know this job is unpredictable. I know I can’t ever promise you that I will come back home to you. But I need you to know that you are on my mind every single minute of every mission. You are my motivation to fight back when I fall into danger.” He gives you encouraging nods, his bottom lip quivering slightly. “That’s how I manage to come back to you every single time, even if I’m barely hanging on by a thread.” He forces a smile for you, still soothing you with his thumbs brushing your cheeks.
The tears return to your eyes at his words, and you return his nods, trying your hardest to believe his words. You want to let go of him less than ever now. You grab him by the waist, pulling him into you as you kiss him as if it’s your last.
You both immediately melt into each other. One of Kang-soo’s hands snakes its way through your hair to the back of your head, while the other caresses your back. You lock your fingers around the back of his neck, pulling him closer. Your lips move slow against each other, elongating every moment of it. He makes humming noises against you while balling your hair in his hand, gently pushing your head as he deepens the kiss, tongue sliding past yours. The faint taste of Raison Black cigarettes when he kisses you, combined with the spicy scent of cologne on his skin, will always make you weak. Your hands move from his neck down to his waist, and you find them untucking his tank top from his pants and sliding up his softly muscular back, the desperation for the touch of his skin on yours growing. His hands lovingly squeeze your hips as his lips continue to move wet and faster against yours. You feel his fingers snake underneath your waistband, a strong hand pulling your ass. You are both lost in each other’s embrace, until—
Bzzzz. Bzzzz.
“Ah— fuck…” Kang-soo slurs into your mouth as he reluctantly breaks the kiss. He reaches for his pocket, pulling out his phone. “That’s Gu wondering where the hell I am.”
Worry sets in your mind again. You press your fingertips into his waist, hands still lingering on his body from moments ago. He notices your expression and stuffs his phone back into his pocket, pulling your hands from his body and holding them with care.
“Don’t you think a kiss like that was a promise that I’ll be back home to give you even more later?” Kang-soo teases, grinning.
You sigh, but you cannot stop the smile that his words force out of you. “If you come home later with even one bruise, you’ll never kiss me again,” you joke, but with a seriousness still lacing your tone.
“Damn…” he lulls in his signature cocky tone. “Then I’ll make sure to come home to you unscathed, ma’am.”
You laugh at his teasing, pushing his chest playfully with a finger. A moment of comfortable, silent eye contact sits between the two of you, until you take his rugged face in your hands, running your thumb along his jawline moles while you stare into his eyes.
“I love you, Kang-soo.”
He smiles and his hands caress your shoulders. “I love you more, angel.”
You give him one more short kiss before you send him off. “And don’t forget… you promised takeout,” you wink at him.
“Yes, ma’am,” he teases once more before he slides out of the front door.
Apologies
Warning: I don't speak English, so I'm using a translator. Please forgive any mistakes! 🥺 This is a small continuation of this part. Summary: how the characters would apologize to you Characters: Lee Kang Soo, Kang Dae Ho, Noh Woo Sung, Kim Yo Han, Wang Wook.
Lee Kang Soo
The next morning, you woke up on a hard hospital chair next to Kang Soo’s bed. Your neck was stiff, your back ached, but you didn’t care.
Kang Soo lay on the bed, covered with a blanket. The bruises on his face had darkened — purple, with blue edges — but the doctors assured you his ribs were fine, just badly bruised. He’d gotten a few stitches on his split eyebrow.
You looked at him, thinking about how vulnerable he seemed now. Without his usual smirk. Without that dangerous glint in his eyes. Just a tired man who had nearly died yesterday.
“Stop staring,” he said suddenly, without opening his eyes.
“I’m not staring.”
“You are. I can feel it.”
He opened his eyes and looked at you. There was the familiar mockery in them, but beneath it — something softer. Something he never showed anyone but you.
“Come here,” he said, patting the edge of the bed.
“It’s cramped.”
“Even better. You’ll be closer.”
You moved over, and he wrapped his good arm around you, pulling you close and burying his nose in your hair.
“Listen,” he said quietly. “I did a lot of thinking last night while I was lying here waiting for the doctor.”
“About what?”
“About how to ask for your forgiveness.”
You froze.
“What?”
He gets out of bed, walks over to you, and drops to his knees. Right there on the floor. Kang Soo on his knees. Just yesterday he was limping, and today, despite the pain, he’s kneeling for you.
“Babe, I’m sorry I made you worry… I know how much you care about me, and I really appreciate it…”
“Kang Soo, get up,” you whisper.
“Not until you say you forgive me.”
“That’s blackmail.”
“It’s begging. Forgive me. I swear. I won’t take any more jobs like this. That prosecutor Goo is hiding something from me…”
You give in. You always give in when he looks at you like that.
“Get up, Kang Soo,” you say, reaching out your hand. “I thought so. Goo is hiding something. How many times has he sent you on dangerous jobs like this? It’s like he wants to get rid of you.”
He slowly stands, pulls you close, and buries his face in your hair.
“I think so too. Looks like he’s willing to throw his own people under the bus to get a promotion. Now I have to dig up all his dirty secrets.”
“Are you serious?”
“I don’t joke about things like this.” He pulls back and looks at you. “You’re the best thing I have. And I don’t want you to see me like this. And I don’t want my games to cost me you. If Goo has turned against me, then my first priority is to protect you.”
“I’ll do anything to help you.”
“I won’t let you get involved in this.”
“Kang Soo, you’re just as precious to me. I have to help you too.”
“Don’t even think about it.”
“Jerk.”
“Your jerk,” he grins. “Now take me home. I’ve earned it.”
“What did you earn? A busted face?”
“Being alive,” he says seriously.
In response, you hug him carefully, trying not to hurt him.
“I forgive you.”
Kang Dae Ho
Dae Ho doesn’t know how to apologize gracefully. He doesn’t drop to his knees with grand speeches or buy flowers for the whole apartment. He just breaks. And you see everything hidden behind his mask.
He stands up. Walks over to you and hides his face in your neck.
“Don’t go,” he whispers. “Please. I’ll tell you everything. I had to leave the service. I had a medical discharge. Panic attacks — I couldn’t handle the field. I couldn’t take it, and I broke. I wanted so badly for my father to be proud of me… And then I got this tattoo to look tough. So no one would know how weak I really am.”
“You’re not weak. You just found the courage to admit your fears. That means a lot.”
He cries. Openly, unashamed. You’ve only seen him cry once before — when he thought no one was watching.
“I’m not a hero,” he continues through his tears. “I’m not strong. I’m just… scared. And I lied because I was afraid you’d see the truth and… and realize I don’t deserve you.”
“Dae Ho, I’m not angry at you. You mean so much to me. I can’t even be mad at you.”
“I love you,” he says, grabbing your hands. “I love you so much that I’ll become real. I’ll try. Every day. I’ll see a therapist. I’ll tell my friends everything. I’ll get this stupid tattoo removed. I’ll do anything to make you proud of me. Just… just don’t leave.”
You look at him — this giant guy who’s trembling now, looking at you with such desperate hope that your heart breaks.
Dae Ho pulls you close, and you both cry.
“I’m sorry,” he whispers into your hair.
“I’m not angry,” you answer. “But no more secrets. I want us to trust each other. You don’t have to become someone else. Just be honest. That’s enough for me.”
Dae Ho nods and pulls you close again.
“I will. I promise. A former Marine’s honor. I mean… just my word.”
You smile through your tears.
“That’s better.”
Wang Wook
Wang Wook isn’t used to asking for forgiveness. Usually, people beg him. But when he realizes he might lose you, his pride shatters. He betrayed your trust. Sacrificed you for power. You left without looking back. You didn’t scream, didn’t cry — you just disappeared from his life.
The first few days, he told himself it had to be done. That power mattered more. That he was a prince, an heir to the throne.
But at night, Wang Wook can’t sleep. He lies in his massive bed, staring at the ceiling, knowing he’s made the biggest mistake of his life.
He starts looking for you. The palace is no place to hide, but you’ve always known how to be invisible. He finds you a week later — in the old garden where you used to meet. You’re sitting on a bench, sorting through medicinal herbs.
“I knew you’d be here,” he says softly, approaching.
You don’t look up.
“Leave, Your Highness.”
“Don’t call me that,” he says, sitting beside you. “Not now.”
“Then what should I call you? Traitor? Liar? The man who traded love for a throne?”
“I know,” he hangs his head. “I know what I did. And I know I don’t deserve forgiveness.”
“Then why are you here?”
“To tell you… that you were right.” He turns to you. “Power didn’t make me happy. It made me… empty. Inside, there’s nothing but cold and darkness. You were my light, and I put it out myself.”
You stay silent. Your heart is pounding, but you don’t show it.
“I’m not asking you to come back,” he says. “I have no right. But I’m asking you to forgive me. Not now. Maybe in a year, maybe ten. But I’d be glad to know that someday you can remember me without pain.”
He reaches out and places a small book on the bench.
“This is for you. Poems I wrote when you weren’t by my side.”
He stands to leave.
“Wang Wook,” you call, and he freezes.
“Yes?”
“Did you… did you really write a book?”
“I didn’t write a book,” he turns, tears in his eyes. “I wrote a thousand pages about how much I love you. And how stupid I was to lose what mattered most.”
“I’ll read it.”
“You will?”
“I’m not promising forgiveness. But I’ll read it.”
He nods and walks away without looking back. And you sit on the bench, clutching the book, crying.
Forgiveness — not yet. But the first step has been taken.
Noh Woo Sung
In the morning, you find freshly brewed coffee in the kitchen — with your favorite foam hearts, which he could never get right before. Today, they’re perfect.
Next to it, a note: “I’m sorry.”
That evening, you come home from work and see that he’s cleaned the apartment. Spotless. Even the places you never check.
The next day, you find a small box on your pillow. Inside — your favorite brooch, the one you lost a month ago and couldn’t find. He’s been searching for it all this time.
You can’t take it anymore. You go to the kitchen, where he’s washing dishes — even though usually you do it, because last time he broke three plates.
“Woo Sung,” you say.
He turns around.
“Enough with the notes,” you say, walking closer. “If you have something to say, say it.”
He’s quiet for a long time. Then he puts the plate in the rack, dries his hands, and turns to face you.
“I’m not good at this,” he says quietly. “I don’t know what words to use. Sometimes I forget that you need me too. Not just me needing you.”
“Woo Sung…”
“I don’t want to lose you,” he interrupts. “You’re the only reason I wake up. Even when everything feels meaningless… Tell me what to do. I’ll do it.”
You look at him. His tired face. His trembling hands. His eyes, filled with both hope and fear.
“Hug me,” you say. “Just hug me.”
He steps closer and hugs you. Gently, as if you’re made of glass. He buries his nose in your hair and stays still.
“Do you forgive me?” he whispers.
“I wasn’t even angry at you,” you answer. “But next time, no notes. Just come to me and say what’s on your mind. That’s enough.”
You stroke his back.
“If you want, we can temporarily move to another apartment.”
“Yes, y/n…”
Kim Yo Han
The day after the fight, you’re sitting in the kitchen. Even though you said everything you’d been bottling up to Yo Han, something still wouldn’t let your soul rest.
Yo Han finds you in the kitchen, drinking tea and staring thoughtfully out the window.
“What’s wrong?” he asks.
“Nothing.”
“You’re lying. I can tell.”
You turn to him and stay silent for a moment, choosing your words.
“I can’t stop thinking about yesterday’s conversation…”
Yo Han slowly walks over and sits down across from you.
“It won’t happen again. I promise.”
“I believe you, Yo Han. I’m not asking for your attention 24/7. I’m just asking you to look at me sometimes. Not through me. At me.”
“I do look,” he says.
“No. You see me. But you don’t look. Those are different things.”
Yo Han places his hand over yours.
“I promise. For you,” he says quietly.
“You always say ‘for you,’ but you don’t think about my feelings. Whether it hurts me or not.”
“I understand. It won’t happen again. You always took care of me when I was in prison. I owe you the same and more.”
Yo Han takes out his phone and turns it off.
“What are you doing?” you ask, surprised.
“Proving it to you.” He places the phone on the table. “I’m not answering anyone today. No work, no other business. Today is just you. Talk. About anything. I’ll listen.”
“Are you serious?” You look at Yo Han in surprise.
“I never joke about things like this.” He squeezes your hand tighter. “I’m an idiot, I know. I hurt you with my actions. Today, I’m devoting the whole day to you.”
You start talking. About your day. About something funny you saw on the street. About everything that’s been building up inside.
Yo Han listens carefully and lets you say everything on your mind.

Lee Kang-soo | Bathroom date
Warning: smut, p i v, public sex, unprotected, enemies to lovers, power dynamics, hate sex, pet names, possessiveness.
Note: English is not my first language so feel free to tell me if there are any mistakes.
The hum of tires on asphalt is the only thing filling the tense silence inside the car. Kang-soo keeps his eyes glued to the road, his jaw set so tight you could practically hear his teeth grinding. Normally, his arrogance is what keeps you on your toes, but today, seeing him defeated is a much more potent fuel for your ego.
“Are you going to keep pretending I don’t exist, or are you going to admit I kicked your ass on the op?” you let out with a smug smirk, leaning your head back against the seat.
KANG SOO 🤤

Hands clenched tightly on the steering wheel, Lee Kang-soo took one last drag of his cigarette, his eyes closed in thought for a moment. Finding himself in the red-light district in Seoul yet again as Prosecutor Goo Gwan-hee had him on a stakeout to find his next target.
However, this specific night club held exotic dancers and tonight he was here of his own volition. Prosecutor Goo had no idea of his whereabouts, simply informing Kang-soo that he would stay in touch once he heard anything else about the circle of people that were in high connection to an infamous drug ring.
he's still serving FACE when he's literally just playing a game 😭
I MISS HIM 🥹
