Ye-eun has always kept her guard up—especially when it comes to intimacy. Beneath her polished, professional exterior is a woman battling a quiet insecurity, one that’s kept her from opening up to anyone. That is, until the company retreat. A few too many drinks, a little too much heat between her and Jaemin—a charismatic and unexpectedly gentle colleague—and one unforgettable night changes everything. When her long-held secret is unintentionally revealed, she braces for embarrassment. But Jaemin doesn’t flinch. Instead, he meets her vulnerability with tenderness—and an unexpected proposition. “If you’re willing to trust me, Ye-eun… we can explore this together.” As their physical connection deepens into something neither of them anticipated, Ye-eun begins to wonder—could this arrangement turn into something more than just chemistry? A story about self-acceptance, slow-burning passion, and the kind of intimacy that heals old wounds—one kiss, one touch, one heartbeat at a time.
