Lee Erin lives by one rule: don't fall in love. It's foolproof-until Nishimura Riki, her brother's insufferably charming best friend, makes it his mission to turn her quiet life into his personal comedy show. Stealing her snacks? Check. Teasing her at school? Daily. Smirking at her murder glares? Absolutely. 

For Ni-ki, annoying Erin is a sport, and her frustration is his trophy.

When her meddling mom tries to set her up with the "perfect" but brooding son of a family friend, Erin makes a desperate move-fake-dating Ni-ki. He agrees, but of course, he doesn't make it easy. Between staged hand-holding and not-so-fake flirting, Erin finds herself laughing more than glaring. 

And Ni-ki? He might just be falling for the girl who swore she'd never fall for anyone.

It started as a fake relationship, but is their love-hate dynamic turning into something dangerously real? Or will Erin stick to her rule and break both their hearts?

「 ⩩ 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 Vienna, amidst the bullying at school, crosses paths with a charmingly mysterious thug who swiftly becomes her protector. They both become each other's comfort despite being polar opposites, discovering in each other the hope and possibility of second chances.」 ══════⊹⊱≼≽⊰⊹══════ Vienna and Ni-ki stood side by side, their gazes fixed upon the shimmering stars overhead. Despite their heads being in the gutter, they found solace in this nightly ritual, where dreams seemed within reach and burdens momentarily lifted. In the hushed embrace of the night, Ni-ki finally broke the silence, his voice tinged with melancholy yet filled with unwavering devotion. "What do you want to do?" "I want to study, excel in my exams, earn a place in a prestigious college where only the brightest belong... and if possible, protect the world." "Can you do it?" "I'll give it my all," she replied, her voice a whisper against the night breeze. "Then it's a deal," he murmured, his eyes never leaving hers. "You protect the world, and I'll protect you." Their pledge hung in the air like a delicate constellation, binding them together in a shared journey of ambition and affection. In that moment beneath the starlit sky, Vienna and Niki found solace not just in their dreams but in each other.
