Chapter 1
달빛 없는 한밤중, 모든 것이 죽은 듯 고요했다.
어둡고 좁은 골목길에서 소년의 숨소리가 거칠고 급했다. 며칠 동안 필사적으로 도망친 탓에 체력이 바닥났고, 피로와 부상, 출혈에 극한까지 긴장된 신경까지... 소년의 몸이 무의식적으로 옆으로 기울었지만, 그는 재빨리 이를 악물고 축축하고 미끄러운 벽을 짚으며 다시 일어섰다. 머리를 세차게 흔들어보았다.
밖의 거리에서 그를 수색하는 팀이 곧 이곳을 찾아낼 것이다... 쓰러지면 안 돼! 쓰러지면, 죽는다.
그를 쫓는 사람은 원래 "이모"라고 다정하게 불렀던 여자였고, 이번 일을 묵인한 공범은 바로 그의 친아버지였다.
그는 한 번도 생각해본 적이 없었다. 구천양, 구성제의 유일한 아들이자 구씨 재단의 유일하고 정당한 상속자가, 자신의 피붙이에게 쫓겨 죽을 날이 올 줄은. 하지만 일은 그렇게 벌어졌다. 너무나 갑작스럽게 일어나 속수무책이었다.
어머니가 갑자기 세상을 떠나고, 장례식 날 아버지는 하얗고 통통한 남자아이를 구천양 앞에 데려와 그 아이가 그의 동생이라고 했다. 일주일 후, 어머니의 친동생인 이모가 아버지와 재혼해 이모에서 계모가 되었다. 그리고 그 하얗고 통통한 남자아이는 그녀를 "엄마"라고 다정하게 불렀다. 또 일주일 후, 아버지는 갑자기 동생 구함을 재단 상속자로 선언했고, 같은 날, 높은 자리에 있던 구가의 도련님 구천양은 암살 시도를 당했다. 간신히 도망친 그는 길거리의 쥐처럼 이리저리 도망다니며 하루하루 목숨을 부지하는 도피 생활을 시작했다...
비록 어렸지만, 어릴 때부터 엘리트 교육을 받아 일찍 성숙한 그는 거의 생각할 필요도 없이 이 모든 일이 누구의 짓인지 알았다. 일이 너무 빠르고 잔인하게 진행되어 아버지에게 직접 따질 기회조차 없었다. 보아하니... 이모는 이날을 위해 수년간 계획하고 준비해 왔던 것 같다. 더 깊이 생각해보면, 어머니의 갑작스러운 죽음도 분명 그녀와 무관하지 않을 것이다...
구천양은 혼란스러운 머릿속으로 이런 생각들을 흐릿하게 떠올리고 있었다. 가슴 속 깊이 묻어둔 비통함과 분노가 체력이 바닥나는 순간 더 이상 억누를 수 없는 듯 솟구쳐 올랐다. 피가 머리로 치솟았고, 골목을 빠져나가려던 그는 갑자기 눈앞이 캄캄해지더니 그대로 땅바닥에 쓰러지고 말았다! 쓰러지자 온몸의 힘이 빠져나간 것처럼... 더 이상 일어날 수 없었다...
급한 발소리가 희미하게 뒤에서 들려왔다. 구두가 물웅덩이를 밟는 소리, 튀어 오른 물방울이 마치 그의 얼굴에 직접 닿는 것만 같았다...
구천양은 절망적으로 진흙투성이 땅을 주먹으로 내리쳤다! 제기랄! 잡히면 안 돼! 어머니의 원수, 자신의 원수... 그는 포기할 수 없었다!
하지만... 정말로 힘이 없었다.
구천양은 불만스럽게 이를 악물며 눈을 감았다...
1초, 2초... 1분, 2분... 예상했던 위험은 오지 않았다. 눈썹을 찌푸린 채, 구천양은 연한 갈색 눈동자에 소년다운 의문과 요행을 담아 살며시 눈을 떴다. 그런데 골목 입구에 언제부턴가 검은색 캐딜락 한 대가 소리 없이 멈춰 서 있었다...
무의식적으로 풀어진 신경이 다시 팽팽해졌고, 혼란스러운 머릿속에서 날카로운 금속음이 거의 고막을 찢을 듯했다!
차 문이 조용히 열리고, 중국식 검은 상의를 입은 남자가 뒷좌석에서 내려왔다. 그는 비참한 모습의 소년을 내려다보며 천천히 웃더니 손을 내밀었다. 그리고 소년에게 말했다. "내 성은 링이다."

From the first Sir, I wanted to kneel.

The same one that called me baby boy in the darkest corners of the internet.

Heartbroken, I tricked him into signing divorce papers.
George remained unconcerned, convinced I would never leave him.
His deceptions continued until the day the divorce was finalized. I threw the papers in his face: "George Capulet, from this moment on, get out of my life!"
Only then did panic flood his eyes as he begged me to stay.
When his calls bombarded my phone later that night, it wasn't me who answered, but my new boyfriend Julian.
"Don't you know," Julian chuckled into the receiver, "that a proper ex-boyfriend should be as quiet as the dead?"
George seethed through gritted teeth: "Put her on the phone!"
"I'm afraid that's impossible."
Julian dropped a gentle kiss on my sleeping form nestled against him. "She's exhausted. She just fell asleep."

The Biker Alpha Who Became My Second Chance Mate
"You're like a sister to me."
Those were the actual words that broke the camel's back.
Not after what just happened. Not after the hot, breathless, soul-shaking night we spent tangled in each other's arms.
I knew from the beginning that Tristan Hayes was a line I shouldn't cross.
He wasn't just anyone, he was my brother's best friend. The man I spent years secretly wanting.
But that night... we were broken. We had just buried our parents. And the grief was too heavy, too real...so I begged him to touch me.
To make me forget. To fill the silence that death left behind.
And he did. He held me like I was something fragile.
Kissed me like I was the only thing he needed to breathe.
Then left me bleeding with six words that burned deeper than rejection ever could.
So, I ran. Away from everything that cost me pain.
Now, five years later, I'm back.
Fresh from rejecting the mate who abused me. Still carrying the scars of a pup I never got to hold.
And the man waiting for me at the airport isn't my brother.
It's Tristan.
And he's not the guy I left behind.
He's a biker.
An Alpha.
And when he looked at me, I knew there was no where else to run to.
