    Summary

    In college, Kim Taehyung was the top of his class—brilliant, hardworking, and admired. Jeon Jungkook, the heir to a powerful corporate empire, was always just one step behind. Resentful of being second-best, Jungkook began quietly sabotaging Taehyung’s academic life: corrupted presentations, stolen notes, and psychological games that left scars Taehyung carried alone.

    Years later, after a series of family manipulations, Jungkook and Taehyung are forced into a political marriage orchestrated by Jungkook's influential parents. Now, Taehyung works as Jungkook’s personal secretary by day and lives in the same house with Jungkook’s emotionally distant parents by night. Stripped of his dreams, independence, and even his voice, Taehyung survives in silence.

    In their fractured relationship, love was never a choice—it was something taken. And now, in the silence of their marriage, they are both fighting for something neither fully understands.
