I want to be sure, the guys I have worked with and trained can go into those kinds of places and not get themselves stained by the iniqu

The moon shone brightly in the night sky, casting an ethereal glow over the sleek, black Mercedes as it cut through the empty streets of the city. Aiden, dressed in a tailored suit, glanced at his rearview mirror, ensuring that no one was following him.He couldn’t be too careful when he was dealing with a psychopathic beauty like Kyungja. Leaving them behind amidst that important conversation was the only way he would have been able to get the free time he needed and visit his grandpa. As the city lights faded into the distance, Aiden's heart raced with anticipation. He had chosen to travel at night, not only to avoid any scandalous news that might arise from his sudden departure as he couldn’t tell where the media's eyes and ears were.And he knew better than anyone that when it came to matters regarding his grandpa who is his true family, the only one he had left- he had to be cautious at least for the old man’s safety.Aiden also wanted to ensure a sense of solitude on his journe

As Aiden slowly opened his eyes, the soft rays of the morning sun filtered through the sheer curtains of his opulent bedroom.He took a deep breath, inhaling the crisp scent of the lush vegetation that surrounded his villa. It was a place of tranquility, a sanctuary nestled amidst the bustling cityscape, where he sought solace from the chaos of his thoughts.Today was an important day. The company award ceremony, where his father would honor the hardworking employees and introduce Aiden as an integral part of the family business. The weight of responsibility sat heavily on his shoulders, but it also carried the promise of a new beginning. This was the day his face would be officially broadcasted, and he would step into the spotlight, ready to make his mark.As he sat up in bed, memories from the day before flooded his mind.But all that memory filled him with nothing but sheer anger, he thought about how it would have been nice to have his grandmother there with him—the scenery of the

Even though the awards presentation had concluded, the evening was far from over. The atmosphere shifted, taking on a whimsical and mysterious air. The lights dimmed, casting a soft, ethereal glow upon the room as if the stars themselves had descended to grace the occasion. Curtains were drawn back, revealing a transformed space—a dancefloor adorned with masks, a world of enchantment waiting to be explored.Guests, with their identities concealed behind intricately designed masks, took to the floor, their movements fluid and graceful. The sound of music filled the air once again, its melody evoking a sense of romance and intrigue.Couples swayed in perfect harmony, their steps synchronizing with the rhythm of the night as if the very essence of the celebration had taken form in their embrace.Masks became a symbol of liberation, allowing guests to shed their societal roles and immerse themselves in a world of mystery and possibility.

The moon hung high in the night sky, casting a pale glow over the meticulously crafted Japanese-themed district. Serene gardens, adorned with cherry blossoms and stone lanterns, provided a stark contrast to the impending storm that crackled in the air. It was within this tranquil setting that violence would soon erupt, shattering the delicate balance of the underworld.For as long as history could remember, the Nakamura district had been known to be a bloodbath land, in fact at a point was even flagged red zone, and movement at night was banned by the police—now, whether this was a true testament to the claims of history or some coincidence, no one really cared, for the lives that will be lost and the unidentifiable corpses that will be found was of more concern.As if summoned by the ominous atmosphere, the two rival mafia gangs emerged from the shadows, members of one cladded in traditional attire, while the other in a red suit, their blades glinting ominously under the moonlight.
