Summary
“I think some people talk too much,” he said, voice low enough that it might’ve been for Mark alone.
For a beat, Mark didn’t move. Didn’t break eye contact. Just let the noise of the pub fade into something distant, like the two of them had quietly stepped out of it. Then the edge of his mouth lifted.
“Well,” he said, setting the towel down. “Good thing I’m better at listening.”
What starts as glances across a bar spirals into weeks of teasing texts, deliberate provocations, and messy encounters. Between cocktails and drinks, Mark and Donghyuck learn just how far they're willing to push each other.

Summary
Lee Donghyuck and Mark Lee have always lived a privileged life swallowed whole by fashion, culture, and Manhattan’s finest high-society.
Unfortunately for their parents, their once inseparable childhood bond shattered at the ripe age of nine over an argument Donghyuck remembers far too well.
Years of bickering and strategic avoidance later, Donghyuck finds himself dumped by a two-timing heir and hungry for revenge, while Mark would simply like his elitist mother to stop dragging eligible bachelorettes to his doorstep every five minutes.
So when Donghyuck proposes a fake relationship for the sake of their equally miserable causes, Mark reluctantly agrees.
It is only a matter of time before Manhattan’s gossip columns become obsessed with their newfound romance - but how long can two lifelong rivals keep up the pretence before one of them breaks first?

Summary
Mark Lee was Formula One’s golden boy. He lived for the race, the roar of engines, the blur of color on the track and the split-second decisions that made him everyone’s favourite. But somewhere in the grind of podiums, pressure and a four-year title drought, his spark thinned into something hollow. He kept winning just enough until the roar of the engine felt distant, but no one seemed to notice the burnout settling into his bones.
No one except Lee Donghyuck. The journalist who always asked the questions Mark didn’t want to answer. When Ferrari greenlit a season documentary and Donghyuck became the man behind the camera, the forced proximity turned suffocating and strangely comforting.
And somewhere in those long shoots and late edits, Donghyuck began pulling him back. Mark felt himself coming alive again, rediscovering the fire that made him who he was. In a world ruled by speed and control, he found himself anchored by the one person who made him want to feel everything.
